PARIS, Dec. 26.-Written threats to de-
stroy various public buildings in this city
and elsewhere continue to be made, osten-
sibly by anarchists.
The latest buildings threatened are the
stations of the Eastern railway. Every
prscaution has been taken to prevent the
threats being put into execution. Among
the measures adopted II an examination OF
the luggage Of passengers, it being feared
that the anarchists will attempt to smuggle
trunk or valise containing an internal
machine into the stations.
The officials of the company at Pantin.
three and a half miles northeast of Paris,
have taken stringent precautions to guard
the station there. Pantin is a manufac-
turing town, and 1t is supposed that some
of the anarchist workmen there are the
authors Of the threatening letters received.

Miss Yeargin went rowing with Instruc-
tor Merriam of Cornell University some six
weeks ago and failed to return. They were
undoubtedly drowned together by the cap
sizing of their boat.
Great interest has been taken in the case
on account of the prominence of the young
people At one time a report was circulat-
ed to the effect that Mr.. Merriam and Miss
feargfn had been seen together in New

The finding of Miss Yeargip's body dis
proves that story and no doubt remains but
that they met their death by the accidental
Overturning of their boat.

Review by San Jose Daily Mercury, Sunday
morning, Sept. 3, 1898.
Attention has been called to this
beautiful and interesting book. and it
is with great pleasure and confidence
that it is recommended to the public
generally. From beginning to end
Americas Wonderlands" is replete
with instruction to the old and the
young; rich with interesting legend,
thrilling story and daring adventure in
the development and progress OF our
native land. 1t is an illustrated and
descriptive encyclopedia of American
scenery, containing over 500 mag
nificent Photographic views, many of
which are in all the natural colors OF
the scenes, interpreted with living
incidents among the Indians and the
wild and rugged recesses of our coun-
try; and the very nature and chaiac-
teristics OF the work appeal with
special force to the patriotic senti-
ment OF every true American heart.
The book is veritable work of Won
der. The study of such q work as
this more than equals trip across the
continent. for here we may pause
over every picture until we take in
the minutest detail, whereas in pass
ing over the continent we can get but
the briefest glance. The descriptive
portion reads like romance of
fairy land. Americas Wonderlands"

Health Officer Newell addressed the
Board o! Health last evening, and his
remarks indicated the most excellent
sanitary condition of the city. There
have been no cases of cholera infantum
and no maiarial fevers, and the alb
sence OF these dangers is attributed
solely to the persistent efforts of the
health officer in the removal of filth
from alleys and streets, and the sewer
connections.
Mr.. Lammon was made chairman OF
the meeting. DIR. Newell brought to
the attention of the board a number
of derelict citizens who have failed to
make proper sewer connections, and
on motion of Mr.. Phipps, it was Or
dered that the directions of the health
officer be carried out under the super
vision OF the Committee on Franchises,
Licenses and Sewerage, the Health
Officer and the City Attorney.
The matter of removing the stag
nant water in the pond between Main
and Washington, near Thirteenth, was
referred to the Committee on Streets,
Wharves and Bridges.

Horr returned, this week, from briel
visit to Spokane, where he met with
many persons from the adjacent coun'
ties capable of giving true estimate
OF 1.-THE damage to wheat by the late
rains. Some place it as high as sc
per cent. of the entire product of the
wheat-growing district, but the effects
OF such an overwhelming loss will
be in some degree offset by the ex-
tradordinary yield. Others are more
conservative in the estimate, and be.
lieve, despite the heavy loss, that
Eastern Washington will ship more
wheat this year than at any time in
its history.

" Friends"

Edwin Milton Royle's most success
full comedy drama of Friends" will
receive its initial performances in this
city at Olympia Theater, on Wednesday
evening, the 18th inst. The company
presented here by the management is
the original one that appeared in New
York in " Friends" during its great
run there; glance at the list OF the
names will convince any one at all
conversant with theatrical affairs that
the company is composed of the best
and highest salaried artists; among the
prominent ones are Selena Fetter
Royle, Louise Wakelbe, Carrie Berg,
Nellete Reed, Lucius Henderson, E.
d. Lyons, Harry Allen, Henry Berg
man, Fred Chandler, and the author
Edwin Milton Royle. Friends" is
therefore sure to be presented in a
manner BETTING its high grade. The
following from the St. Paul Pioneer
Press of a late date is of interest /:
"The title gives the keynote to the
theme. 1t is friendship, as the poet
sees it in his dreams, as the pulpit
orator paints it in hie most exalted
flights. And in proof thereof one
friend is willing, nay, anxious to lay
down his life for the other, and to
make light Of the sacrifice. The
highest, purest love for woman is laid
upon the altar of friendship, and the
renouncing lover becomes the winning
advocate of his rivals cause. Poverty
in its direct form possesses no terror
for the noblest of passions, success
fails to loosen the bond and danger
offers opportunity for one friend to
fly to the rescue of the other. This
is the feeling which pervades the story,
this is the light that sheds its glow over
the mental pictures as they are pa
raded in turn; this is the glass
through which the performance is
seen and which gives it the chief
charm. An integral part Of the play
and running through it from end to
end, is the story OF a woman's passion
ate love, pitched on the same high key
as is the story OF friendship. The
strength, fidelity and altruism OF the
one has its counterpart in the purity
of tenderness and devotion of the
other. 1t is an ideal love, and as such
it is fitting companion to the picture
OF friendship, and its character is
shown by its survival of burning accu-
sation and bitter suspicion. Such a
love is capable of being wounded, but
it cannot be killed, and from its depths
wells a spring of forgiveness which
heals every wound and obliterates
every sore.

RETRENcHMENT.--Nearly every coun-
ty and city in the State is cutting
down expenses. Reduction of the
salaried list, and of the salaries when
practical, has been made in innumer.
able instances. No more work is laid
out thar is absolutely necessary, and
every precaution is adopted agains,
loss of a single dollar, or of placing i,
where it nay not yield the most salts
factory returns. Quite q number oil
the cities have discontinued theil
electric lights, which though superio,
are an expensive luxury, and quite 9
number have dispensed with all stree,
improvement, and reduced their sala
ried lists to the lowest possible expen
diture. This is as essential, as for the
commander of q ship to take in sal
when tie pressure of the gale begins
to strain the masts or the rising bill
lows threaten to engulf the totterins
craft. 1t is the part of wisdom to re-
duce expenditures to the amount o.
income, and when the revenue is un.
certain, as in the collection of taxes
when the people have no money tc
pay, it is wise to leave wide margin
on the credit side to meet possible
contingencies.
