STATELY BUILDINGS.
SPECIMENS OF RECENT ARCHITECT
TURE IN THE SOUTH AND WEST.

A Woman Has Designed the Strueturs
which Is to Be Arkansas Headquar-
tiers at the Worlds Fair--The City
Halls at Dallas and Portland.
Architecture in the United States Is
rapidly developing science, and every
new building of any size and pretenslons
Is studied with national interest. The
west and south have an immense advan-
tage in their abundance Of room, but IN
most cases their structures are not of
the largest and their appropriations are
necessarily limited. New York city, on
the other hand, has all the money heart
could wish for her new city hall, but
the place to put it is a problem-one
that agitates all the officials and has ex-
cited a long and heated controversy
among journalists and politicians.

RIVERSIDE TOURNAMENT
MEETING OF THE EXECUTIVE COM
MITTEE YESTERDAY.
The Riverside People Making Very Elab-
crate Arrangements-The Prizes to Be
Exhibited in This City.

The Riverside tournament is booming.
The prospects are good for holding one
of the most enjoyable events ever held
in the state.
Messrs. Halsted and Bettner, the local
committee Of the Casa Blanca club OF
Riverside. are stirring up interest at an
amazing rate. They have written letters
to every club in the association, and
also had personal communication with
most OF the cracks.
The executive committee of the asso-
citation held meeting yesterday, at
which were present Messrs. Lindsay,
Tufts, A. H. Halsted and A. S. Halsted.
A new club OF twenty-five members,
which is to be known as the Riverside
club, was admitted to the association.
The entire charge of the tournament,
purchase Of prizes, etc, was turned over
to the tournament committee, consisting
of Mesers. Preite, A. H. Halsted, r.
Bettner and Ses. Lindsay. Besides the
$125 donated by the Casa Blanca club,
several business firms have given hand
SUlDc PllLCo, 81 thdb UhO llOphlCb wall Uc

Play will begin at 1.45 p. m. on We'd
nesday, February "a.
Players must enter for the first event,
association singles, through any member
of the ex-committee prior to that time,
or they will be barred from participa-
tion.
Most of the players plan to leave on
~, n On :, ~, Copto Tx froi,, ,ob n ~
riyes at Riverside at IL 80. Buses will
be ready to take the visitors direct to
the grounds, where lunch will be
served.
By visitors is meant not only play
ers, but all who attend. The Riverside
people don't intend to do anything half
way, but will make every one welcome.
An admission of only 80 cents for the
entire tournament will be charged.
Entrance fees of so cents will be
charged for each event, as is customary.
The handicap singles will not be an as
sociation event. but open to every one.
1t is expected that this will prove to be
very popular, and will no doubt make
a large entrance list. San Diego expects
to be we'll represented in this event.
The association doubles, mixed
doubles, ladies' singles and open handi-
cap singles will not be closed until after
the tournament has begun, so as to
give full allowance OF time for the en-
tries to be made.
A large number of society people of
this city, Pasadena and other places in
tend going down to attend the grand
ball to be held on the Goth.
If all the tennis events are finished by
Friday night it is proposed to hold a
coursing meet on Saturday. But this is
not settled as yet.
It is easy to see from this that this
midwinter tournament, though an ex-
pertinent, will prove to be not only a
grand success from tennis standpoint,
but also socially, and probably result in
it's becoming an annual fixture, such as
the midwinter st. Augustine event. The
prizes will be placed on exhibition at
Tufts-Lyons store. VANTAGE In.

The Oakland Tribune contains the
following about former residents of this
city:
Mrs. Sarah A. Nell, who is nearly 20
years of age, says that her husband /,
David, is an old rascal. She will not
give him the satisfaction of securing a
divorce, so she has sued him for main
tenance.
According to her story the old man is
as frisky as spring lamb, and although
time has left it's mark upon his wrinkled
cheek, he still labors under the belief
that he is just as young as he used to be.
Nell was married to his wife in Pennsyl-
vania in 1845. After living happily for
many years they came to California in
1867 and settled in the southern part of
the state. Everything went along
smoothly as could be until 1889 when
Abbie Kelly, gay and giddy old girl
who had passed her fortieth summer,
bobbed up in Los Angeles and cast her
net to catch the ola gentleman. He
fell, and he dropped so far that he
couldn't get back.
BRUSHING UP ANCIENT CHARMS.
The old fellow commenced to spruce
up ana became quite uanuy' Ills
silvery locks were brushed up pompa-
dour style and his whiskers were parted
in the center. Patent-leather shoes took
the place of brogans, and altogether the
old chap became quite dude.
He forgot all about the faithful wife,
with whom he had lived for forty-two
years, and abandoned her in a most
eold-blooded manner, leaving her to be-
come public charity. In the mean
time old Nell took up his home with the
Kelly woman and has been living at her
house for the past two years. Mrs.
Nell tells the court that her hus band
owns property valued at $4,000, and has
an income of 5000 a year. She wants
the court to compel him to pay her $50
month alimony for life. The charges
made against the old fellow are sworn to
by his wife.

LONDON, Feb. 16.-The cold weather,
gales and snow storms which set in last
night throughout the United Kingdom
continued today. There has been a
heavy fall of snow in London. Traffic
OF all kinds is greatly impeded, and tele-
graphic communication interfered with.
In the English channel gale is blowing
with great violence, and the service be-
tween England and the continent ,is
greatly delayed. The air is 90 thick with
snow that it is scarcely possible to see a
boats length ahead, and tremendous
sea is sweeping up the channel. The
captains of vessels will not venture out
until the storm has abated. A schooner
went ashore last night at Southwold, in
Suffolkshire, ON the North sea. Her
crew was rescued. The highways are
almost impossible, and ii the storm con-
tinues much longer it will be impossible
for them to be used at all.

The People of Dallas Greatly Excited
over Recent Revelations.
DALLAS, Tex, Feb. 16.-The public is
greatly excited over the revelations of
the doings of Col. J. B. Simpson, who
for years has been a prominent citizen.
1t has been learned that his real-estate
deals were on a mammoth scale, and
people who purchased from him are
beginning to find that he had placed
other mortgages on property. He was
president of the Fourth National bank
OF Dallas, and it is said he tried to
mortgage that concern, but was
prevented by the directors. Among the
losers is the Weir Plow company of
Monmouth, Ill. They sold him stock
of carriages on time without security.
He disposed of them for about $40, 900.
Attachments are piling up in the
county clerks Office by dozens. Among
the heaviest are the Edinburgh-Ameri-
can Land and Mortgage company, $780,
900, and the Scottish-American Land
and Mortgage company, 100000. 1t is
understood he is on the ocean bound

FRUIT TREE PESTS.
Eastern Nurserymen Oppose the Cami-
netti Interstate Bill.

netti Interstate Bill.
SAN Francisco, Feb. 16.-A Washing
ton special says: The Nurserymen's
Association of the United States,
through its secretary, Charles Green OF
Rochester, N. Y, has published circu-
lar and distributed it in Washington,
opposing Caminetti's bill to regulate
international and interstate traffic in
nursery plants, the design OF which is
to prevent the introduction or spread Of
plants infested with germs of disease.
The circular declares that the bill
threatens great injury to the nursery
trade, and that the germs of disease and
eggs of insects could not be detected
with the aid of 1000 power microscope,
and in most instances could not be
detected at ALL that the germs of apple
scab, anthrscinnsis, rust and other dis
ease, very few nurserymen are able to
detect, many OF these diseases being
entirely unknown as to their history or
early stages, such as peach yellows,
which the department of pomology has
kept one man employed investigating
for six years, and yet he has made but
little progress in tracing the origin of the
disease, or in detecting its presence on
vigorous trees.

Argued Pro and Con.

The Question of Dealing In Futures
Argued Pro and Con.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-A large num-
ber Of gentlemen, principally represent
ing the New York produce exchange
and the New Orleans cotton exchange,
we're before the senate judiciary COM
mittee this morning to present their
views relative to the Washburn anti
option bill. J. w. La Bousse, repre-
senting the New Orleans cotton ex
change, was the first to address the
committee in opposition to the bill.
Charles w. Ide, president of the New
York cotton exchange, said II either OF
the bills introduced in the senate and III
the house were passed, the business OF
the exchange would be utterly des-
troyed. The system of dealings in con-
tracts for future deliveries was so inter-
woven in the business of the present
dav that it could not be taken from it
without seriously damaging the entire
system of commerce.
James o. Bloss, vice-president OF the
New York cotton exchange, also opposed
the bills.
C. w. Macune of the Farmers Alli-
ance today addressed the house commit
tee on agriculture in favor of the anti
options bill. He said it did not inter
fere with the legitimate futures"
dealer, but only with the dealer in
s'futures'' who understood the manipu-
lation of the market. In his opinion
there was no question that the present
eystem was bad for the producer.
J. III. Brigham OF Ohio, master of the
National Grange, said the farmer knew
from the fret that he had drought, rain
and other adverse conditions which
make all his labors Improbable.

La Gripnal

The tendency of this disease toward
pneumonia is what makes it dangerous.
La grippe requires precisely the same
treatment as severe cold. Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is famous for it's
cures of severe colds. This remedy
successfully counteracts the tendency OF
the disease to result i'll pneumonia,
provided that proper care be taken to
avoid exposure when recovering from
the attack. Careful inquiry among the
many thousands who have used this
remedy during the epidemics OF the
past two years has failed to discover a
single case that has not recovered or
that has resulted in pneumonia. Fifty
