AND now Goa a curious piece of
political gossip. We are assured that
Markham has been promised cabinet
position if he will turn the California
delegation to Minneapolis over to Har-
rison. We would like to believe this
story. But it is jolly weak in points.
Firstly, there is no need of Harrison
wasting cabinet position on California
for its support at Minneapolis, for he is
assured OF it already. Secondly, our
friend Markham is not cabinet-size
states man. and would be source of
weakness in the grand council of the
nation, something that no president can
afford. But there is little doubt that
Markham is in the line of promotion and
has had something handsome promised
him, or he would not have sent his pri-
vate secretary-the lofty and umbra-
geous Higgins--to Stockton to steer the
convention. He may look for one of the
Asiatic or Polynesian missions if Harri-
son should by some inconceivable mis-
chance again get elected to the White
House.

Pre-Millenialism = An Open Letter to
James y. Clark.

pre- III enialism An Open Letter to
james y. Clark.
DEAR SIR: L have read with much
interest your article in this morning's
HERALD on the pre-millenial advent and
personal reign OF Christ on earth, in
which you evidently think the matter
beyond the province of the ministers of
the Lord and detrimental to their prac-
tical duties.
Nav ask how you account for the
fact that the Adventists contribute more
per capita for missions than any other
Christian body, and, in proportion to
their wealth, probably one hund red
times as much as the Episcopal church.
which gives the most per capita of any
of the orthodox bodies?
How do you account for the fact that
all the great evangelists of modern days
with few exceptions, are pre-millena-
rians?
How do you account for the fact that
all the great reformers in every Christ
ian generation, who have wrested the
scriptures from corrupt and sleeping
church have been, to a greater or less
extent re-millenarians?
devout and learned men, careful stu
dents of the scriptures, IN every age
have been pre-millenarians, and have
sacrificed honor among men and pro-
motion in the outward church for hold
ing and publishing their faith? How
do YOU account for the fact that the
Christian church for the first three CEN
turies was pre-millenarian? The period
where the scriptures of the New Testa-
ment were being written and received !;
when, at first, the Holy uhost presided
in their councils and corrected errors,
when believers laid down their lives for
the faith. and when the gospel of the
kingdom" was preached with more
power than ever since. eu
How do you account for the fact that
now, those who make the greatest
sacrifice for their Christian faith; who
love not the things of the world, who
live in prayer, the performance, unos-
tentatiously, of good works are pre-mil-
enarians. while on the other hand
those who oppose it, are, for the most
part, the world and worldly Christians :?
How do you account for the fact that
the possibility Of the nearness of His
coming to give life to the saints of all
ages, and to reward the righteous living
is sweet and welcome news to the faith
full, humble, patient, suffering disciples
everywhere, and unwelcome only to
those who love this present life and
world, and are seeking it's earthly re-
wards? I M N
I should like to hear from you on
these points. THos. w. HAsKINs.

farmers had been assured in the
middle of January that the crop pros
pect would be as encouraging as it is
now, they would have been more than
satisfied. OF one thing we may rest as
sured, and that is that both our decidu-
Gus and citrus fruit crops this year
will be phenomenally good ones. The
advance in the price of hay is not justi-
fed by the condition of the hay crop.
1t will not perhaps be as large as during
our best years, but there will be no
alarming shortness in the new stacks.

THEATRICAL MATTERS.

At the Grand opera house, commenc.
ing this evening, Miss Agnes Hunting
ton and her English Opera company
will be heard in Paul Jones, the opera
in which she has won such eminent and
continued success in London, at the
Prince of Wales theater. 1t hardly
needs to be said that the American
naval hero whose name has been adopt.
ed for the principal parsonage of Plan
ouette's composition is, like the Irish
man in the song; ''not himself at ALL,
but mere comic opera youth whose
experiences are all evolved from the in
ner consciousness of the librettist. The
story of this young gentleman may be
sketched as follows:
In the first act he is in love with
Yvonne, the daughter of an old Breton
shipchandler, Bicoquet, with rival,
who is nephew Of Don Trocsdore, the
Spanish governor of some spot in Cen
tral America. Bicoquet favors Rutino
and Paul Jones volunteers on board an
American privateer.
Act second opens three years later.
Bicoquet has married Rufno's sister,
Malaguena, and Yvonne is being forced
to marry Rufno. just here, in obedience
to the laws of comic opera, Paul turns
up, challenges Rufno, but by strata
gem the latter makes Paul a prison er,
and carries him off in irons to the
Spanish main. And as Paul's squadron
is nearing the coast, Trocadore is
charmed to find Paul in his nephew's
hands. OF course he escapes, and is
taken for Bicoquet, and in con-
sequence the latter has a bad time.
By the aid of Malaguena and the
ladies, Paul succeeds in making his
ship. The Americans attack the Span
iards and all ends in the most approved
fashion. There is an underplot involv.
ing Pauls boatswain, Bouillabaise and
his wife, Choppinette, who is sad flirt,
and the king OF the Mosquitoes and
other subordinate characters who supply
the low comedy elment. Each act has
it's own locality. The first passes at St.
Male, in France, and the second at the
Chateau of Kerbignac on the bay, and
the third represents place on the Island
'of Estrella.
The praise bestowed on Miss Hunting.

slightly qualified has been most generous
and all agree that her appearance and
bearing are delightful sights to see. The
mounting and dressing is fine, and the
supporting company is we'll trained.

THERE was undoubtedly a very decided
dynamite scare in San Francisco Satur-
day night, for nearly the entire police
force, in citizens dress, was 80 dis
tributed as to be ready to pounce upon
any long-haired crank who might make
suspicious movement upon the banks or
the residences of the plutocrats on Mob
Hill. As the scare resulted in nothing.
it is probable that it arose simply from
the fears of the men who would nat
urally consider themselves the object OF
dynamitard hatred.

LAST evenings rain will do great deal
OF good to the growing crops. The late
sown grain in some places may be saved
by it, whilst little harm can occur to the
small amount OF hay already cut. The
fruit crops everywhere is coming along
finely, and the prevailing showers will
freshen it up and give it additional
vigor. This;section will give good re-
port of itself at the end of the season.
The grain crop will not be full one
but we shall have yield that will be
considered satisfactory by the farmers,
