idle people to spend money; they do
profit the public gardens and the vendors
Of liquid refreshments; but that they con-
stitute in any true sense factors in the
great problem of development, is rank
absurdity, and that Thomas Magee and
men who reason as he does do not know
1t, testifies only to their entertainment of
false conception of California's needs.
The whole philosophy underlying the
proposition of Magee is so cheap, so sim
ple-minded, so insufficient, so impover-
lshed IN imagination, as to be utterly
projected in the public forum, there are
men who have such ignoble conceptions
OF public judgment as to imagine that
the public mind absolutely believes it. 1t
is an insult to public opinion to assume
that the majority of its units are so ash
nine. Public judgment sometimes goes
wrong for while, but in the long run it
will reach the basic rock, truth, and all
the Tom Magees in Christendom, with
their shallow thinking, cannot prevent it.
The State languishes for want of manu-
featuring enterprises and industries.
Thos. Magee responds, "Run cheap ex-
cursions somewhere, and we will be en-
abled to compete with the rest of the
world in manufactures"
The State wants healthy, self-helpful,
vigorous and enterprising agricultural
populations. Run cheap excursions out
Of San Francisco, shouts Mr.. Magee and
the Catl, and there you have it.
The interior plans great irrigation
schemes that will make arid lands groan
with truitfulness and wealth to be poured
into the channels of San Francisco trade.
The metropolis is asked to invest Of its
money-of which the Bulletin lately de-
clared that city has more than it knows
what to do with"-in aid of these State
building, home-creating, industry en-
couraging schemes. But rural shoe
leather is worn to the welt in walking the
financial pavements of the metropolis
seeking buyers of irrigation bonds, and
the only response is Tom Magee's reply,
run cheap excursions out of San Fran
cisco to San Jose.
We want new people with means and
ability to prosecute the horticultural in
dustry; "run cheap Magee excursions
from San Francisco to Santa Clara and
fruit-growing will become profitable"
Out upon such nauseating twaddle.
Common-sense people know that profit
able industry is the true source Of pros
perity. Populations are densest where
their industry is most in demand. These
are axioms. VIII Mr.. Magee, or the CaIL,
or anyone with thimbleful of brains or
an atom Of gray matter, tell the public
how it makes demand for the industry of
men, barring the peanut venders and
popcorn fiends of local trains, to carry
people from San Francisco to San Jose on
occasional excursions for cent a mile?
If they can show how it will do it, it must
follow that the Southern Pacific Company
viii run the trains, and plenty of these
trains, since it is not the fool Magee as
sumes, to stand in its own light" for
every industry stimulated wisely, pro-
duction legitimately augmented, popula-
ton swelled healthily, means benefit to
railroads and all other means of trans
portation.

A Woman's Statement.

They got into an argument about the
money made by people who earn their
living on the stage Of course they diff
fered: people can't argue satisfactorily
unless they do differ. But here is the
opinion of woman who was once on
the stage, who was considered popular,
who was clever enough in her work to
get applause and praise. who presum-
ably earned more than the average &C
tress. and yet who is content with her
present life:
When take out the money paid for
gowns which were useless except on the
stage. when make allowance for trav-
cling expenses, hotel bills, weeks in
which few performers earn anything;
when take into account engagements
which could not for many reasons be
satisfactory to me; when foot up the
salaries which sometimes in my early
work never received. and when | esti-
mate the thousand and one little ex-
penses which were then necessary, | con-
slider that for several years of my life
earned practically nothing but living,
and worked very hard, You must un'
derstand. When l got married ! left
the stage. Now it isn't necessary to tell
you what my salary was or what my
husbands salary now is, but his earn
ings are le.s than mine were. But we
two live much better on his smaller
salary than | alone could live on my
bigger salary. We have pretty home
and all that we need to be happy. We
save little money too. So | suppose
this is fair answer as to what one
makes on the stage. There are great
many circumstances to be considered.

when slavery existed, and cotton as
king has been dethroned by Sorn,
which now rules as King of crops.
Under free labor the cotton crop has
more than dou bled In its yearly pro-
duct that produced by slavery, and
the price has been almost cut In two
besides. The only hope for the south
is to keep the yield hereafter down to
about ,00O, 900 bales, and till the soil
for other products to take the place Of
cotton. Then, and not until then,
can the price of cotton be controlled
and kept up to a payirg basis, and
the South again return to prosperity.
The South is now almost bankrupt by
an overproduction of their one big
crop of cotton, due to the low price
now for the stuff and no market for
the sur plus. The difference to the
South In dollars and cents as between
lie ard 70 is ecu Il 10 at least $780,.
600, 900. The advise of the Farmers
Allisnce, urging cotton growers to
hold back their product for hig her
prices has entailed q loss Of probably
Sc q pound to those who were so in
fluenced, which is equal to $l27 ,000,-
900. Similar advice was more recent
ly given to the producers of wheat in
the West, notwithstanding that the
price at the time was 81, 10 a bushel
in Chicago. The difference between
that price and the present would be
equal to $l2O. 900, 900 loss on the crop.
IL is therefore, very plain that 1t
would be good thing for the farmers
if the Farmers Alliance would go
out of business, instead of trying to
mislead their followers in 60 perni-
cious and ruinous q manner"

DROWNED IN A RESERVOIR.
The Death of George winclley in Eagle
Rock Valley.

The Death of George winckley in Eagle
Rock Valley.
George Winckley was drowned yester-
day afternoon about l O'Clock in the
Glasen reservoir. This sheet of water
is about ninety feet long by fifty feet
wide. 1t is located about eight miles
from the city, in Eagle Rock valley, be-
tween the Verdugo road and Pasadena,
Young Winckley and a few compan-
ions were swimming in the reservoir.
OF sudden the Winckley lad was taken
with cramp and sank. As soon as he
disappeared the boys who had been with
him rushed to procure assistance. They
notified E. Barnett and O. P. Walker.
As soon as the men learned what had
occurred they proceeded with all posi-
BILE haste to the reservoir. Everything
that could be done to find young Winck-
ley was performed by them. For two
hours they exerted themselves diving
and graphing for him. Finally the body
was found.
In the meantime the other boys had
come on to Los Angeles and notified the
parents of young Winckley, who reside
in Los Angeles, of the accident. The
coroner was also informed. The body
was brought to the city and is now at
the morgue. An inquest will be held at
10 o'clock today.

LoOmis Genealogy.

The late Professor Elias Loomis be-
came interested in the subject of gene
alogy in early life, and for nearly forty
years before his first publication he col
lected from time to time materials for a
list of the descendants of his ancestor,
Joseph Loomis, who came from Brain
tree, England, and settled in Windsor,
Conn, in 1889. In 1870 he published
list containing 4,34O descendants of Jo-
seph Loomis bearing the Loomis name.
After five years of research he published
the second edition of the ''Loomis Gene
alogy," in which are given 1856 names
which bore the Loomis name, .descen-
.dants Of Joseph Loomis in the male
branches.
Five years later, in 1880, he printed.
in two additional volumes, a provisional
list Of 10000 descendants of Joseph
Loomis in the female branches. At the
time of his death he left in manuscript
many corrections and additions that
will be of use to the future Loomis gene
alogist. Memoria of Elias

A METROPOLITAN WILDCAT.
A City Woman's Remarkable Experience
with Strange Pussy.

a EXD0rlenC9
with q Strange Pussy.
A New York woman had an expert
ence few nights ago which she will
not soon forget-one which, considering
her environment, was very surprising
Her home is a ground apartment, occu-
pying two floors, however, in one Of the
high class apartment houses in Fifty
ninth street overlooking the park. The
library is on the second floor, and in
this room she was seated one night
when peculiar noise from the family
parrot, who was in his cage in an oppo-
site room, attracted her attention.
Thinking the bird was merely rest
less and wanted his cage covered, she
picked up soft woolen couch cover
and started across the hall. At the
threshold of the second room she saw
crouching on the top of the parrots
cage a gray cat, which had succeeded
by his weight and clawing in inclining
the cage almost to the tipping angle,
poor Poll meanwhile travelling up and
down the upper side in frenzy of
fright. The unequal struggle could not
have lasted many seconds longer, and,
urged by the crisis, though really
alarmed at the unusual size and fierce
appearance of the cat, Polls mistress
advanced into the room shaking the
couch cover and attempting, after the
manner of women, to "shoo" the cat
away.
She had half crossed the apartment
when the animal made spring at her,
and but for her quick movement in
covering her head with the couch cover
which she held her face would have re-
ceived the brunt of the attack. AS it
was, the cat clawed violently for an in
slant at the mass of woolly material in
which he was enmeshed; then, aided by
the desperate push which the now ter
rified woman gave him, leaped to the
floor and dashed into the library.
Mrs. recovered her senses and
closed the door between herself and the
cat, then violently rang the bell for as
sistance. The maids responded and,
after carrying Poll to place of safety
in remote room, an attempt was made
to dislodge the cat from the library. At
sight of her pursuers the creature began
to rush about, jumping through brass
screen with force enough to break it,
knocking over bric-a-brac and loose
books, and ending by scaling the win
dow casing as if it were tree and run
ming out on the bare curtain pole. From
this high perch he glared down at those
beneath him until Mr.. IS arrival
shortly afterward. He was then prod
ded down and leaped through a window
opened for him to the pavement below,
darting off to the park as soon as he
reached the ground.
Policemen and others familiar with
Central park say that stray city cats
often find homes in its sequestered
hooks, growing wild and raising prog
eny that become almost as fierce and
terrible as genuine wildcat. In this
instance the animal was doubtless driven
from its haunts by hunger, and, getting
in on the ground floor. was attracted up
stairs to the parrots cage by the scent
of the bird and its food.-Her Point of
View in New York Times.
