Questions for Hutchinson.


EDITORS HERALD: 1 see by the coun.
Gil proceedings that Street Superintend-
ent Hutchinson asks the council for
leave to employ twenty additional men
for twenty days, and sets up the plea
that there is plenty of work to do and
that there are many men with families
who need the work, etc.
would like to ask Mr.. Hutchinson
why he discharged ten or twelve men
one week ago yesterday, who had fami-
lies, and most of them find it hard to
get the necessities of life.'
would like also to ask him if he has
ploy old residents of the city with large
employment to young unmarried men
L ask him if on one occasion he did not
employ young man for several months
who came from Texas and had only
been in this city for one week and who
gang? Could he find no resident? Does
another assessment, or is he throwing
out bait for the next election? He
may be able to convince the council of
his sincerity, but he cannot convince
the people.
Is there not ''nigger in the wood
pile?" 1t is useless for Mr.. Hutchinson
to pretend that he is the friend of the
"many men with families" 1t is a
good story, but it does not look well.
Look at his past record, which gives us
all the light we need on that subject.
The fact is, Mr.. Hutchinson has failed to
keep his promises with the laboring
men, and he knows it. Now he wants
to make bold move to get their sympa-
thy for future use; but he has placed
himself on record and now let him stand
on it. LAERTEs.

PATTERSON'S DEATH.

He Tires of Life and Takes a Dose
of Morphine.
James Patterson, young man of 81,
who came from the east to the coast a
few months ago for his health, was
found yesterday morning in his room
in Pasadena, dying from an overdose ol
morphine.
He had been living in Hoyt's cottage,
and for some time has been suffering
greatly. He died during the day, and
Coroner Weldon went out to view the
body and swear in jury so as to hold
an inquest today. There is no doubt
but that Patterson took the morphine
with suicidal intent.

Nervous Prostration.

Nervous prostration is one of the
new diseases which has come into
vogue during the last four or five years.
Our grandfathers would have laughed
at ii, but that it is a genuine COM
plaint, due to high-pressure living,
there Is no question, All the doctors
have studied it and many have sug-
gested remedies, but most of the cures
arc beyond tho reach of the sufferers.
Here, for instance. is DIR. s. Weir
Mitchell, who prescribcs perfect rest,
the patient to lie in clean, sweet
smelling bed in perfectly lighted
and ventilated room, and to be sur
rounded by everything that is pleasant
and soothing. Now, this is just what
the people who succumb to nervous
prostration cannot secure, and the
doctor ought TO know it. According
to Sceptical San Francisco Chronicle,
i'he might as well prescribe two
years ocean voyage or something
equallx visionary, No hospital will
supply 4hesc conditions, ana there are
very few private houses in which one
may obtain such ideal surroundings.
If there were within easy reach we
should hear of fewer cases of nervous
prostration.n

Sheep are not commonly regarded
as beasts of burden, but in large
part of Northwest India, thousands
of sheep carry for many miles the
commodities purchased by the sale of
their own wool. The mountain paths
among the foothills Of the Himalayas
arc SO precipitous that the sheep,
more surefooted than larger beasts,
are preferred as burden carriers.
The load for each sheep is from six
teen to twenty pounds. The sheep
are driven from village to village
with the wool still growing. and in
each town the farmer shears as much
wool as he can sell there, and loads
the sheep with the grain which he re-
ceives III exchange. After his whole
fock has been sheared he turns 1t
towards home, each sheep having on
Its back a small bag containing tho
purchased grain. -[Detroi. Free

4 Man Strangles a Bear.

back with him piece of bear meat,
evidently of year-old bruin. The
animal from which the meat was cut
was a fiue looking beast aud the meat

more strange the fact that it was killed
by an unarmed man. He came upon

and held 1t firmly, while it tore his
clothes TO shreads and ripped bits of
skin and flesh of here and there with
his powerful claws. He saw that his
only hope for his life was to choke the
bear to death, so that the more it
struggled the tighter he held on, until
1t finally succumbed. When the man
rose from the contest he was pitiful
looking sight indeed, his clothes being
torn to shreads, and tho marks of the
cruel claws being visible on more than
one part of his body. After recover
Ing himself he took out his pocket
knife and bled the carcass SO that the
meat might be in good condition. -

suddenly, the full daylight nearly
dazz cd them.
They passed out on to little pla.-
form, aud Miss Ethel, flushed with her
cxertion, uttered cry of delight at
the cxpausa of country before her.
A tremendous circle of hills. valleys
and woods surrounded them.
That triangular mirror Of gliitcring
metal far below them is the ocean seen
through The long vista of a valley.
The forests of Alaspret, from the
foot of the tower TO the horizon,
spread out wide cxpansc of softly
rounded hills, which melted into the
distance in blue haze. The country
reminded one of carpet that had
been pieced together. Those golacn
spots, here and there, are the corn
fields. those gray stones arc villages
one can sec the face of the church
tower clocks like SO many white
points. A stream between willow
clad banks flows down there in the
distance--a strip Of silver lace,
hemmed with goll. From nll sides
rises the moisture from the earth in
gray masses of vapor ltswathed the
tower of the keep in an evcr-moying
stream like continent submerged in
sea of mist.
The east grew roster, The clouds
were ablaze with purple colors.
They looked as if they were lighted
with gigantic cmbers of some glow
ing forge.
The silence tended to increase that
feeling of mystery and thoughtful
spirit of religious poetry which comes
with the dawn aud spreads over the
earth.
"Ahl" said the two voices together.
The sun had just shot his first CLEAN
through break in the clouds. They
dispersed and fed away SO rap diy it
looked as if a giant broom was speep-
ing space. Then the great disk of the
sun in his glory rose in the midst of
the rose-colored sky.
"Ethel," sighed Mr.. D'Herblo. He
saw her shining with beautiful
| splendor, balhed in the living rays of
Of the sun.
She seemed to him the central
beauty of the landscape vibrating with
life and light Her naughty loveliness
twas softened with tender grace,
and tears were glistening in her pure
eyes.
"Look," he said, 'dhc sky Is clear"
And, indeed, not cloud was TO be
seen. The air was ablaze with light;
the sun was slowly rising in the sky.
The sea of mist that surrounded the
tower could be seen melting away and
evaporating. Aud the circle in which
they two stood seemed to absorb the
colors and lights with all the rich
splendors of the woods, the cornfields
and the meadows,
A fresh and laughing youth was
abroad on the earth and in the soft
touch of the wandering breeze.
Scarcely perceptibe mists rose from
the roofs of tho cottages below. Then
the Angelus sounded out; others an
swered back, faint and sweet, like the
song of the larks. The birds were
beginning to wake; life was active on

1t is not generally known that up 10
recent years medicine was prepared
from the common crawfisl. In the
stomach of this creature there are al
most always found small calcareous
concretons, from the size of u pins
head to the size of pea. The little
stony ball is composed of carbonite
aud phosphate of lime, and was
formerly powdered and used in doses
of three or four grains TO correct acid
fly of The stomach. Prepared chalk
has now taken the place of the
''crabs-cyes," as these concretions
were called, but occasionally persons
are found who consider them more
efficacious than the less repulsive sub
