A Young Napoleon shocked.

He is an employee Of one of the lar
gest manufacturing firms in the city,
and is also a nephew of the senior part
ner. Some time ago he left on Friday
evening to stay over Sunday at a
summer resort, which is quite near
here. When he arrived he found, as
he expected, the girls very attractive,
and late Sunday afternoon decided
that he could not tear himself away
on Sunday, so he telegraphed his i'm
mediate boss as follows:
DO you need me? If not I shall
stay"
The telegram was, of course received
but no attention was paid to it, and
the sender thinking something wrong,
reported at the Office bright and early
Monday morning Finding everything
all right, and nothing being said about
the telegram, he mentally kicked him
self for coming home. Finally word
was brought to him that his uncle
wanted to see him, and, quaking with
fear he obeyed the summons. When
he entered the old gentleman's sane
tum he was invited to sit down and
make himself quite comfortable. At
ter rummaging through some papers
which were on his desk uncle dear
took from them a piece of yellow pa
per- Turning around he looked his
nephew straight in tn eye and said:
My boy, this telegram was received
by the head of your department Sat
urday afteroon. 1t reads: DO you
need m e? If not I shall stay and
is signed with your name. Did you
send it?'
Yes, uncle" came the answer
meekly.
you did! Then let me tell you sir, !"
and the atmosphere became suddenly
chilled. that I have been here for
over forty years and they don't need
me-"
The telegram was laid down, and the
head of the establishment picked up a
pen and began writing. Nephew knew
that the interview was over. Just then
he was going through the door he
heard uncle mutter: Do they need
me?"

The House That Mike Owns.

1t is grand house, and to build
one like it would cost millions Of
dollars, if it could be done at all
And yet the man who lives in it
bad hardly a dollar to his name
But then he didn't buy the house
because it was built by nature on
the rocky walls of Sabina canyon, in
Arizona, thousands of years ago, and
has been ready for an occupant ever
since The man who lives in it is a
prosDector known as Mike What
other name he has is not known. and
besides it doesn't matter. He says he
was going up the canyon one day a
year or so ago, when he first saw
the place and thought it was house
built by man.
When he saw his mistake he simply
took possession. Mikes house is
truly most deceptive piece Of ma
lures handiwork, and a very useful
one. 1t is on the canyon walls, qrob-
ably 100 feet above the bottom and
a fight Of natural stone steos leads
to it. 1t is hard to convince ones
/ self that it is not the work of man
until it is examined closely, when its
enormous size alone would make a
person know differently 1t is only
one story, but the uotside wall is
lover lVV teet nigh. The door which
is in good proportion is over twenty
five feet high, and the room on the
inside reaches up and ends in a black
vault that there is no telling how far
away it is.
When Mike wants a fire he just
makes it on the floor, and the smoke
curls UP to the top and disappears
| somewhere. This is somewhat
strange, as no water ever comes into
the place and the smoke cannot be
seen coming out anywhere But it
very likely goes through some fis-
sure into cave beyond. But Mike
doesn't care where it goes. He is sat-
isfied with the convenience and
thinks he is the best fixed prospector
| in the mountains.
This house of rock is most strongly
Suggestive of Egyptian architecture
land also bears a great resemblance to
some of the cave dwellings, in the
Salt river valley. The thing is an
interesting curiosity, and although
There is a strong possibility that it
lis the house of prospector now it
may in the past have done duty as
a home for some members of the lost
races of this strange country.

Marriage Customs.

Secret marriages are in every coun-
try in Europe considered illegal.
In Spain water in which a wedding
ring has been dipped is good for sore
eyes.
In Java, as part of the marriage
ceremony, the bride washes the feet OF
the groom.
In Servia and Bulgaria the groom
gives the bride a tap with the heel OF
her own shoe.
The Greek church employs two rings
in the marriage ceremony, one of gold
and the other of silver.
The wedding ring has at one time or
another been worn on the thumb and
every finger.
-Four rings were used in the wedding
ceremony of Mary Stuart to the unfor-
tunate Darnley.
The use OF the wedding ring is first
NOTED in Egypt. when the ring was the
emblem of eternity
Among the New Zealand natives the
most important part of the ceremony
lis terrific mock scuff1e.
The crusades introduced a fashion of
holy cross rings each containing a frag-
ment Of the true cross.
Marriage by capture prevailed among
the TurcOmans until very recent date
and the form is still kept up.
A hundred years ago, when the bride
had q fortune, the newspapers stated
that fact and gave also the amount.

CROSSING THE CONTINENT.
Many Railroad Men Think the Passenger
Rates Are Too High.


The initial move for reducing over
land passenger rates was made yes
terday, when w. A. BisseH and c. H.
Speers, local agents of the Santa Fe,
accompanied by H. Thompson, Los
Angeles agent of the same company,
called on the officers of the Southern
Pacific company and made an official
request for action looking to the low
ering of prices for tickets to eastern
points, says the San Francisco Exam
liner.
Assistant General Passenger Agent
Donaldson was the only Southern Pa
cific official present in the big brick
house at the corner Of Fourth and
Townsend streets to receive the visi-
tors, and no understanding in regard
TO proposed rates was reached.
1t is we'll known that the Santa Fe
people have long been dissatisfied with
the figures forced on them by the
Southern Pacific, and that they have
been growing more and more impatient
because they do not see any hope for
speedy relief. The northern railway
lines, by the use of steamers from here
to Portland and Victoria, have been
able to cut considerable eastern bust
ness from the regular all-rail compan-
les, and the sensational all-round re-
duction announced by the Canadian
Pacific, to take effect yesterday, was
the last straw. It is thought that cut
all along the line is inevitable.
1t is estimated from official figures
that there will be at least 1000 car
loads of oranges shipped east from the
southern part of the state this year.
This is about the same as the output
of last season. The fruit is said to be
in good condition. but the yield per
acre scarcely comes up to expecta-
tons.
The California Traffic associations
subcommittee reports excellent pro-
gress in securing assurances of addi-
tons to the capital stock of the Cali
fornia Navigation company.

Wires were first permanently intro
duced into the executive mansion just
before the Inauguration of Hayes. He
found use for them during the railway
strikes and riots of 1877 when he was

public trusts, and he fulfilled them all

country. AS a soldier, giving his
