STREET PAYING.
A Proposal to Improve Wash
ingtOn Street.
The Material a Bituminous Rock
Resembling Asphaltum In
General Appearances.

A proposition has been made and
favorably received for paving four blocks
on Washington street between Second
street and Second avenue. The proposal
comes from Mr.. R. G. Lowell, repre-
senting the Santa Cruz Bituminous
Rock Paving Co. of San Francisco, and
the material intended to be used is btu
minous compound somewhat similar in
appearance to asphalt but much more
durable and better adapted to this
climate. The cost of the paving will be
divided among the property owners on
each side of the street and the street car
company, which under the terms of its
franchise will pay for the paving be-
tween the tracks and the same distance
on each side.
Petitions for the paving are being
pretty generally signed by property
owners and the board of supervisors will
be petltloned to pave the side of the
block next to the court house. The i'm
provement is favorably regarded by the
street car company.
1t is argued that the paving will not
only increase the value of the AUDITING
property beyond cost but will add large
ly to the sanitary condition of that part
of the city.
This kind OF paving has been laid in
all the cities and larger towns of Cali
fornia. There are miles of it it in San
Francisco, Oakland and Los Angeles,
but the particulars point more particu-
larly to Fresno, which is entirely paved
with this material. The climate of
Fresno is quite similar to that of
Phoenix and the paving there has given
the highest satisfaction.

Self Praise.

Self praise is no recommendation, but
there are times when one must permit
person to tell the truth about himself.
When what he says is supported by the
testimony of others, no reasonable man
will doubt his word. Now, to say that
ALLCoCK's Porous PLAsTERs are the only
genuine and reliable porous plasters
made is not self-praise in the slightest
degree. They have stood the test for
over thirty years, and in proof of their
merits it is only necessary to call at.
tention to the cures they have ffected
and to the voluntary testimonials OF
those who have used them.
Beware of limitations, and do not
be deceived by misre presentation.
Ask for ALLcoCK's, and let no solicita-
ton or explanation induce you to &C.
cept a substitute.

HOW MICE MAKE WAR.
They Face Each Other Standing on Thei
Hind Legs.


They Face Each Other Standing ON Their
Hind Legs.
Before we had much observed mice,
the use of their long tails was ques-
ton that had puzzled US. We do not
know of what service they are to the
females, but to the bucks they are, we
see, of use in their combats; for when
they fight they very often face one an
other standing on their hind legs, the
tails then making, as with kangaroos,
the third feature of tripod.
Their appearance, when they thus
stand facing one another with their
heads thrown back and their paws in
front of their faces is, on account per-
haps of the resemblance it bears to the
posture of prize-fghters, extremely
comic, says writer in the Northwest.
Small mice, also, when attacked by
their bigger congeners, raise their
paws before their faces, the attitude
in that case strangely suggesting one
of depreciation.
What occurs when belligerent bucks
actually engage only instantaneous
photographs could record, so rapid are
their movements. Presumably, they
try to bite, but must consider defense
the better part of valor, for they never
appear to get hurt much and between
the rounds will nibble away at the
crust which brought them into the
vicinage, only showing their excite
ment by rafting their tails against the
ground. Occasionally tail seized by
the teeth leads to one mouse having to
drag his enemy over the floor till the
latter lets go.
