Habits Of Public Singers.

Do you know how many famous
lady singers have contrived and still
contrive to strengthen their voices9

Nine. Despierre, by drinking hot
water; Nine. Cruvelli, claret; Nine.
Patti, seltzer water; Nine. Nilsson,
beer; Nine. Cabot, by eating pears;
Nine. Trebelli, strawberries; Nine.
Mamo, by taking snuff; Nine.
Dorus-Gras, by eating cold meat.
Several singers Of the male sex
also have INDUCED in similar freaks.
Sabatt, the Swedish tenor, used to
eat picked cucumber; Berk, the bar
itone, hardly ever spoke for fear of
spelling his voice; Kinderman was
in the habit of sucking prunes.-

MASCULINE iNCONslSTCECY,

b Righteousness Of the Average Man
yanislies At tho Free Lunch Counter.
To the student of human nature
the free lunch counter offers a fruit
FIJI fed for observation and cog1ta,
ton.
The avcrageE New Yorker, who has
money enough TO command a fair
share of the comforts of life, prides
himself Oh being rather fastidious
about his victuals. He insists on
cleanliness above all things. He be-
comes very indignant if at a restau-
rant a plate is set before him that
bears the imprint of dirty fingers.
His knife a.l foc.l must bear no
trace of the service they have done
for the guest who last used them.
His cup and scCccc E11St he immacu-
late or there will be trouble for some
body. And if he should discover in
any way. that the food set. before;
him was something which had been
previously handled and rejected by
other patrons Of the restaurant
why, he would take a fit right off,
and when he recovered he would
bring suit against the proprietor,
confident in the assurance that any
jury which wasn't tempered with
would award him heavy damages.
But when he c%onfronts a free lunch
counter all his fastidiousness van
ishes. He sees dozens of hands paw
ing over the contents of various
dishes which r all supposed to be
more Or less provocative of ardent
thirst. without any sensations of
squeamishness becoming apparent in
his interior department.. He calmly
helps himself to a piece of ham or a
scrap Ct cheese and proceeds to con-
sumeit without being in the slightest
degree disturbed by the reflection
that the particular morsel he chose
for the qualification of his appetite
had been touched by many fingers
some probably greatly in need of
washing-before he secured it.
If he uses a fork to help himself to
beans or potato salad or a mussel or
two, it ISM 9 clean fork that he em.
ploys. It is a fork that he picks out
of a jar of dirty water, into which
the man who last used it dropped it.
That makes not the slightest differ.
n to him, however, in a saloon,
although il a restaurant it would
justify him in raising Cain" But
when he goes to get his drink there
will be the deuce to pay if he detects
the decocter mixing him a cocktail
in a glass that is not perfectly clean.
All this, the philosopher would say,
stends to show that the average mar
,isIno1e a creature Of habit than of
reason, and that what fastidiousness
he manifests is simply based on Gus

Characteristic Costumes disappearing.

Characteristic Costumes Disappearing.
Possibly 50 per cent. of the inter.
national costumes copied by Queen
Victoria when she dressed dolls
have passed away, never to return.
In some. of the Swiss cantons the
traditional Helvetian garb yet sur
wives; in others it is fast declining
to extinction. Picturesquely clad
men, women aid children who pre-
tend to be artists models, but who
IRE in reality beggers, still haunt
the Via Condotti at Rome and ex-
tract coppers from the "%forestieri.
The police have driven them from
the Piazza di Spagnia and the steps
Of the Trinith de Mont; but ere
long in all likelihood they will
wholly vanish. A few vestiges of
romantic dress linger in the Italian
provinces; but on the whole the
peninsula is at present inhabited by
a population, the males Of which
wear ''store" clothes and wide awake
hats, while the women are clad in
Manchester cottons and cheap hats
copied from the latest Paris modes.
Characteristic costumes are on the
wane in Germany, in Norway and in
Spain. They hold their own to some
extent in Austria, in Bohemia and in
the Tyrol; but on every side the ma
tional costume is coming down to a
dull, prosaic level, and in another de-
cade or so it will be difficult to dis,
criminate between different nations
in so far as their garments are con,
cerned.-London Telegraph.

Ths Power 81 Grsxit.tie..

From common experience we are
apt to hold exaggerated notions Of
the power of gravity. Not until we
compare it with other attractive
forces, such as magnetism or cleo
tr.city, do we appreciate how trivial
it really is.
The fundamental experiments in
electricity and magnetism. known to
men for more than 1000 years, Of
lifting light bodies by rubbed amber
and iron filings by means of a load
stone, demonstrate at once their in
~comparably greater power.
If, for instance, the attracting
body had the moderate dimensions
of a hand specimen Of amber or load
stone, we should require it to be Of
so dense a material as to weigh
1000. COO, 0C0 pounds instead Of a few
pounds, as usual. in order that it's
gravitational attraction should equal
that of either of the two forces men
toned. 1t is obvious therefore that
the imposing nature of the force of
gravity, as equally compared with
other attractive forces. is due not to
it's superior qualitative magnitude,
but to the enormous masses of the
bodies which exercise it.
Thus, while it requires the use of
the Ecost delicate torsion balance to
demonstrate even the mutual attrac-
ton between a small and a large
sphere of lead. yet where enormous
masses, such as the earth, are con
cerned, the attraction exerted by one
hemisphere upon the other probably
exceeds a force of 500 pounds per
square inch over a surface whose
radius is 1000 miles. -Electricity.

It Will Possibly End Some Time
Next Week.
There is possibility that the Cohn
contest, which has dragged along
for weeks past, will be concluded by the
end of next week.
The case has been one of the longest
ever tried in this county, and there
has been 80 much repetition in the
evidence on both sides that the court
and everybody else except the interest
ed parties and their counsel have grown
fearfully tired of the daily monotony of
asking witness after witness about the
residence of B. Cohn at certain time,
or the place of abode of Delfina or some
one else who has appeared in the case.
This testimony, which is claimed to be
very important, has taken up an enor-
nous amount of time, and crowded out
other cases from trial until Judge Ciark's
calendar is way behind.
So far there have been at least 300
witnesses on the stand. TWENTY-FIVE
were examined yesterday, and about
the same ground was gone over again.
At last when Mr.. White, of counsel for
the respondents, addressed the court.
announcing that he had closed his case,
Judge Clark heaved big sigh of relief.
The contestants are now taking an
other whack at the case. Doha Del
fina, the contestant, was placed ON the
stand to rebut some of the evidence
offered by the respondents. She was
followed by other witnesses, who testi-
fed contradicting to the witnesses for
the respondents. The testimony in
rebuttal was not all in when court
adjourned to Monday morning.

OMAN's SUICIDE.
A Statement Made That He Was a
Defaulter

Defaulter.
The mysterious suicide OF Alfred p.
Oman, cashier of the Bank of San Pc
dro, has been hitherto without bare
suggestion OF a reason for the young
mans desperate act. Oman was only
% years OF age, and on Christmas eve
was married to lovely girl. On New
Years day the young couple returned
from their wedding trip, and on Janu-
ary I'd. young Oman killed himself. He
left word that his body would be found
in the cafion back of the Sepulveda resi-
dence, and his message was found to be
true. His body, still warm, was found
with bullet hole over the right tenn
pie.
An investigation into the case has de-
yeloped tha statement that Oman was q
defaulter to the Bank OF San Pedro.
1t is reported that the shortage was
reported to the state board OF bank
commissioners, and Bank Commissioner
Charles II. Dunsmoor visited San Pedro
and examined the bank two or three
weeks ago, presumably on this business.
It is further understood that the amount
is not large, and that the owners of the
bank have made good the loss.
George III. Peck, Jr., the secretary
and manager of the bank has admitted
that there has been shortage, and that
il has been made good. II 10 said that

OYSTERS.

| It appears from the innumerable free
and partially paid for lads" and edito-
rials given publicity in the Times OF
late, that there is some one in this city
knows little-very little-about what
they are writing. s.ax4s
Mr.. Duncan is excusablt for being
drawn into such CONTROVERSY; it is
well known he has been encouraged
by those who laugh at bim-to pursue
the folly of writing absurd anecdotes of
his theoretical ideas for the amusement
of children uncertainty not for sane men.
Having deviated from the usual cline
of writing" and made anattack upon the
innocent oyster, must confess he COM
mitted radical error. In his master
piece he alludes to the bivalves as
Laughing in the crystal waters" Well,
1 suppose it would, if it could, and
laugh heartily were it to comprehend
the meaning OF such a nonsensical arti-
Gle as is attributed to his pen.
Now that his knowledge of piscatorial
culture has been exhausted, the Times
makes an attempt to come to his recuse
in the form of an editorial. with three
black lines to draw attention.
The editor in oil his glory, sitting on a
box in his sanctum, made a terrible
mistake when he penned the lines:
Let the merry war go on, and mean
while we will get fill of oysters-and
the Times will acquire more advertise
ments and consequent revenues"
Now, Mr.. Otis, you are welcome, as
far as am concerned, to a can of those
stale Louisiana oysters, Sin return for the
privileges granted the donor, in the
columns of your sheet: but if you want
the fresh Eagle Brand" to purify your
breath, you must pay for them.
/ feel sorry for you, in one sense OF the
word, to think you lost the 'fat job"
OF city print ng, and no wonder you
look for another "source of revenue :"
but do not think for one moment your
prophecy will be fulfilled, as far as the
oyster company is concerned, in replen-
ishiDg your Golfers. for it would be pref
erable to purchase the interest of Mr..
Donk-an, or that of his son in law, and
then we could demand anraccoHnting to
ascertain who was getting the free
ads"
As for Morgan's eagle Brand" of
fresh, frozen oysters, they require no
"pocket lining" to put them in first
place, in preference to the ancient
trash, as their reputation is established
and sore-headed editor, with all his
relations and the ink at his disposal
cannot take their pennant with stale
refuse from eastern ports. D.J. Dick,

THE RIcH-soLoMoN STORY.

a Denial From All the Parties Con-
cerned.
The story was published last evening
that Mr.. Rich, clerk in the Peoples
store, had attempted suicide. The
evening paper made an unfortunate
mistake in asserting that the attempt
was caused by the illnees of Miss Solo
mon, and the consequent wish of Rich,
who is described as her ardent admirer,
to die with her, and who it was alleged
went to drug store and demanded a
dose of poison, and was accommodated
with an innocent mixture, which he
swallowed.
Mr.. and Mrs. Solomon called at the
HER AID Office last evening in company
with 81 Rich, and stated that their
daughter was entirely ignorant of the
matter. Miss Eva Solomon was at
tending to her duties as cashier in the
store of Frank, Grey & Co., and knew
nothing of the affair until informed by
her mother. Mr. and Mrs. Solomon
stated that one of their waitersses,
named Rosie Mitchell, tainted. Rich
was keeping company with Miss Mitch
ell. Rich denies that he attempted sui.
eide.
