The Guests Were Under the Table.

Sothern gave dinner to Florence at q
London club and invited him for half
an hour later than any of the other
guests. He said to his guests, who were
eminent men in literature and politics
and in the nobility: "When Florence
comes suppose you all get under the
table? He'll think his lateness has
caused you to leave" So when Florence
was announced all except Sothern got
under the table, and the tablecloth hid
them from sight. AS Florence entered
he saw Sothern alone and said:
"Has nobody come YETI"
"Oh, yes,' said Sothern in loud
voice. They've all come. And as soon
as you were announced they hid under
the table, though why the deuce they
did it can't imagine"
One by one the guests crawled out,
looking red and ashamed. New York

RIVAL ROADS.
A Railroad Right of Way Fight at
Redlands.

- ~~~
Redlands.
Yesterday morning, says Sundays s
San Bernardino Courier, it was reported
on our streets that the Southern Pacific
and Santa Fe Railroad companies we're
engaged in bitter fight over the right
of way along Park avenue just east OF
Redlands. Investigation proved the re-
ports to be true. and only those who
have witnessed two rival railroads fight
ing over the right to piece of land can
understand how bitter such fight can
be.
AS usual, the interested parties were
very close mouthed about this affair,
but from different sources The Courier
reporter managed to learn few facts re-
garding the squabble.
Originally the land in question was
owned by Mr.. Somers of Redlands.
Zook & Parks OF the same place held the
land under contract and gave the Santa
Fe company deed for the right OF way.
Mr.. Somers also gave the Southern Pa
cifc company deed for their right of
way, and as both were in the street
the reservation was made that public
travel was not to be obstructed. The
Santa Fe built their line and the South
ern Pacific graded for theirs, but before
they could lay the track gang of Santa
Fe laborers appeared on the scene on
New Years. day and laid switch which
completely shut out the Southern Pacific
company. They evidently chose this
day for the move on account OF its
being legal holiday, when no courts
would be open. An injunction was also
served on the Southern Pacific officials
to prevent them from building.
Where this will end is hard matter
to guess, as evidently the courts will
have to settle the matter.

A CRANK who is 'onto" Jay Gould's
record is worrying him for $40 900 under
penalty of being dynamited if the de-
mand is refused. If Gould's record
were unknown and he cared for the good
opinion of his fellow men. he
might well be persuaded to
yield up spaltry $4,000 to
keep his shady transactions secret.
But as the public is "onto" Gould. and
Gould doesn't care a tinker's expletive
for the public, it is not very likely that
the crank will get the sum applied for,
and the dynamiting might as we'll pro-
ceed, ii it has to be done.

Frames for Pictures.

Oil paintings should be framed in gold,
silver or bronze. A frame of white and
gold is best for a water color, while en-
cravings and etchings look best in
frames of natural wood, either polished
or varnished, but never gilded. Photo
graphs can be framed in natural wood
or modest flat gilt or bronzed frames,
according to the subject and the tone of
the picture. Soft gray or cream tinted
mats are the best for pictures in general,
throwing the picture back from the
glass and softening the effect, but tinted
mats may occasionally be used. A dark
blue mat, when the picture is blue in
tone, or wine colored or rarely sill
vered or gilded one, may be very effect
i've, but should only be used cautiously.
The frame for an oil painting should
never be fiat, but always thicker at the
outer edge, to throw the picture back
and increase the perspective in which it
is best seen, and harmonize it with the
walls. Sometimes an oil is of modest
coloring and low tone, and is most eff
fectively framed in dark crimson or dull
blue velvet, the pile of the velvet soften
ing the picture yet imparting lumi-
nous and rich effect, which the glitter of
a golden frame almost wholly absorbs to
itself.
Water colors are often harmoniously
framed in tints which carry out the deli
cate prevailing color in themselves, es-
pecially in landscapes and marines. The
mat can often be the palest tint of
cream, pink, buff, atmospheric gray or
sea green, while the frame itself may re-
peat the tint, with delicate lines of gold,
or be made Of simple white and gilt
molding. .-Harper's Bazaar

IT WOULD be an interesting thing if
some capable person would make an ex-
act calculation Of the arabic area of Los
Angeles county. 1t is sometimes loosely
stated at million acres. A careful in
vestigation OF the subject would doubt
less increase that figure. 1t is quite
probable that, when the valleys have
been well settled up, the mountain sides
and tops will, in many cases, be the
sources of as sremunerative production as
the valleys. They are utilized for the
vineyard and olive in Europe, and there
is no reason why they should not be so
employed in this county. Both the vine
and the olive attain their most attrac-
tive results on hillsides in Europe that
would in this section be regarded as i'm
practicable for purposes Of cultivation.

The muskrat is somewhat similar in
appearance to his dry land cousin, but is
incomparably larger. The brown musk

muskrat, when full grown will measure
twelve to fourteen inches from the tip
of his nose to the root Of his tail. and his
ratlike caudal appendage sometimes at

skins are valuable for their soft, glossy
fur, and are bought by traders st from
six cents to ten cents each and sold to

The other day telegram arrived from
the east, stating that an elderly gentle
man and his wife had died within few
days of each other. Their two sons were
telegraphed for to California and they.
also, shortly after their arrival at their
parents home, died, the whole family
being closed out within week. The
case was justly regarded as mys-
terious. but the opinions of the physi-
clans leaned to the theory that the cause
Of death was the fact that the family
lived in new house. That is to say,
their dwelling had not been properly
aired and heated. There is only one
real drawback to Southern California.
and that is that people presume upon
the mildness of the climate, build their
houses too lightly and neglect to provide
themselves with proper facilities for
heating their dwellings during the early
mornings and evenings. Al mere baga-
telle suffices for this purpose; but, in
too many cases, the precaution is not
taken. With the provision made for
artificial heating in the east duplicated
here, we should have scarcely any sick
ness but that inevitable through the
presence in our midst OF eastern. val

THE Franco-Bulgsria episode has
been robbed of much of its interna-
tional significance by the explicit dec

looked for and desired peace in 1892.

sode was purposely precipitated to en-
broil Europe in war.
