K Little Previoui: I.,

"a man can occasionally be just q
little forehanded when he ought not to
be-" was Myron Mylice's comment on
the frailty Of human nature to friends at
the Lindell. "a few months ago man,
my neighbor in San Lucas county, Cal,
found that his father was very i'll and
called in a physician, who pronounced
the case hopeless one and intimated
that the parent had but few days to
live. This grieved the son very much,
but Of course it was tribulation that
had to be borne. The next day the son
started for the neighboring county seat,
some IS miles, to buy farm necessities.
While there he specialized upon many
things, and among others upon the ap-
preaching death of his father. Then he
argued with himself that, since his fa-
ther must die anyhow, and seeing that
the journey from his home to the town
was long and hard one, he thought it
would not be much harm to buy his fa-
theirs coffin and take it along.
CATER numerous qualms Of conscience
ON that score he finally conquered his
feelings and secured the coffin. Then
came the journey home, and John stored
the coffin in the garrett and resignedly
awaited the fathers death. That much
expected event did not come to pass,
however, and my friend was left with
the coffin on his hands. Being very close
in the matter Of money and not wishing
to lose on the coffin, the residents of
Punta Argos, the county seat, were
treated to the novel sight of farmer
peddling a coffin about to various citi-
zens, to one of whom, an undertaken, he
finally sold it at an extremely reduced
rate.''-St. Louis Globe-Democrat-

Curious experiments in High Air.


Nearly 100 years ago, in 1894, NJ. Bolt
and Gay-Lussac, the pioneer balloonists,
conducted the most remarkable series of
high air experiments ever known. AL
though ballooning was in its infancy at
the time, the facts proved by those in
trepid navigators Of the air have been
Of inestimable value to all later investi-
gators. They took domestic animals
and birds of various kinds along with
them for the purpose of taking notes on
the effect which the extreme cold and
rarifed air would have on such creatures.
They were also well provided with
various scientific instruments and other
suitable apparatus. The first expert
mental ascension carried them and their
cargo to a height of $4,000 feet.
At 5000 feet the animals and birds
seemed to all BIO in normal condition; at
10000 all were breathing very rapidly.
When the barometer showed that a
height of II 900 feet had been attained
a pigeon was liberated, or rather thrown
from the basket, for it fell like lump
of lead, being utterly unable to flap a
wing on account Of the rarified state Of
the air at that altitude. Gay-Lussac
had normal pulse beat of 60 per min
ute; at II 900 feet this had increased to
so. When on terra frma Bolts beat at
10 per minute ond III when the II 900
foot level was 1 scit&l-St. Louis Re

ton to the vote Of one man, Populist
and neighbor of his at Los Angeles. It
would seem that he owes his election
chiefly to his remarkable ability as a
jurist. His decisions as judge were mod
els of legal precision and clearness Of
statement and were almost invariably
accepted by the higher courts, and as a
corporation attorney he has large prac-
tice. Though born and partially reared
in San Francisco, he has long been iden-
titled with the interests Of the SO called
"citrus belt, FOR southern California, from
which came a majority of the Populist
members Of the legislature.
During the last campaign Judge
White showed unexpected qualities as
an orator, canvassed the state for the
Democratic ticket and engaged in six
joint debates with Hon. M. M. Estee,
the Republican leader of national fame.
AS California has already developed a
new school of literature as exemplifed
in Bret Harte, Joaquin Miller and
others and many. new industries, so the
indications now are that it is developing
new school of political oratory. Be
that as it may, the first election of a
native to the United States senate is an
event of national interest.

The elections Of 1892 were full of sur
prises, and every week adds to their num-

outside of their states are coming to the
front. Perhaps the most striking instance
is the election to the United States senate
Of Judge Stephen M White, of California,
as he is native Of San Francisco and
but 40. years old. Hitherto it has been
taken for granted that senator from
any state west Of the Mississippi must
be a native of some eastern state, but
California has come Of age-has in fact
reached what Germans call 4'the Sua-
