Mail Steamship Company expires. 1t is pro-
posed TO establish line of steamers between

goods trade will be shared by cutlery, hardware,
provision, and the grocery trades Heretofore
the service between San Francisco and New

port freight. Under the new regime it will not
take more than so or 80 days from New York

One Kind of Saving.


A thrifty woman had joined one of those CO.
operative saving societies whose earthly fnnc-
ton is to protect its patrons against extortIon-
ate prices by securing to them reduction oil
10 per cent at the stores belonging to the com
bination She was enthusiastic over the OPP
portunities for economy the scheme presented,
and her husband was rather disposed to be
skeptica on the subject.
At the close of the first week she had talk
with him.
"You don't believe in the society,"" she said,
tentatively.
mot altogether" he confessed.
"Wel, whether you do or not. L We saved SlO
this week; over $50 day for six days"
"How?" he inquired.
"By using my tickets, of course. | bought
500 worth of things and only paid $50 for
them"
"Ah!" he said. beginning to figure.
yes / did. and next week I'll save $50, or
over 81 day." and she was more enthusiastic
than ever.
mo, you won't, my DEAR" he said, emphati-
cally. "You are altogether too economical:
This business of spending 1925 to save $50
won't work. You throw that ticket IN the
fire and begin to retrench and reform in some
other direction, please" and she began to cry.

Pointer for the Immigration Law.

There are hundreds of thousands of immi-
grants in this country who have never re-
nounced their allegiance to the Governments
of the countries from which they came. One
of the propositions before the Senate Commit
tee on immigration is for the enactment OF
law requiring all alien immigrants to renounce
their allegiance to every foreign power as soon
as thew arrive here if it be their purpose to re-
main here. We had trouble with the Italian
Government over the New Orleans affair be-
cause the Italians in whose behalf that Gov
eminent claimed damages were subjects of the
King of Italy, and thus under his guardian
ship, though residents of this country. The
Senate Committee will probably incorporate
the proposition presented to it upon this SUBJ
iect in the bill for the better regulation of i'm
migration, which it is now preparing for the
consideration of Congress.

A Monument for Wisconsin soldiers

writer in the Ashland (Wis.) Press thinks
il the duty of the citizens of that State to erect
a monument commemorating the deeds of the
Wisconsin soldiers in the late war, and suggests
that July d. 1898, the States 50th birthday,
would be the proper time for its dedication. de
thinks the hill overlooking Camp Randall,
Madison, from which nearly $4,000 soldiers
were organized for the field, and where some
900 Union and Confederate soldiers lie buried
in the cemetery close by, would be the proper
place to erect the monument, which should be

Gen. Rosecranss Condition.

Gen. w. S. Rosecrans. U. S. Army, retired,
and Register of the United States Treasury, is
a very sick man, and his friends have been
very much alarmed at his condition. DR.. 1rv-
ing c. Rose, the eminent brain and nerve
specialist. who has been attending the General,
says that he has not been attacked by paralysis,
as some of the newspapers have reported, and
the fact is the General is not suffering from
any actual disease. There is nothing Patio.
logical in his condition beyond the ordinary
changes of age. He sleeps well and his appetite
is good. His present condition is owing to ex-
treme prostration, brought about by excessive
work and close application to his official duties.
When left the General to-day he was resting
easy and was very cheerful.

The Cost of the Worlds Fair.

More money has already been paid out in
creating the Worlds Fair than the Directors
thought would be necessary to complete it
when Congress voted to send the Exposition to
Chicago. Ten million dollars was thought to
be the limit then. Auditor Ackerman's report
shows that the expenditures to Dec. 1 have
been $l2 460, 235.61. The receipts have been
1929, 451.98. The available balance on hand
Dec. was 5000, 0Ge 80, about enough to last two
weeks at the present rate of expenditures
But the souvenir coins are coming soon, and
the Directors have nearly 81, 100000 yet in Ex-
position bonds, from which no capital has been
received, SO that the machinery will be kept

water. Farmers ana their families for miles
around attend the meetings, some to experience
religion, and others to witness the novel scenes.
