Ervptian Cats Fond Of the water.

By some persons the popularity of the
cat in Egypt has been attributed to the
fact that the animal was valuable in rid
ding the palaces Of rats and mice and
also in hunting fowl. There are several
paintings il. the British museum, exc
cuted by ancient Egyptian artists, REP
resenting Egyptian sportsmen in boats
on the river Nile, accompanied by large
cats, sitting on their launches in the
stern. Other pictures show the cats SWIM
ming with birds in their mouths after
the manner of retriever dogs. These
pictures have greatly perplexed modern
natu-a alists because the cat of today has
a strong aversion to water, and it is diff
fcult tc. reconcile such different traits
even after the lapse of thousands Of
years.-;5t. Louis Post-Dispatch.

The Conscience Fnnli.

Every little while conscience stricken
individuals refund to the treasury de-
partment certain sums Of money con-
fessed to have been ill gotten from the
government in various ways It is as
tonishing that notwithstanding the thou
sands of dollars that have been sent to
the treasury on this account no special
record has been taken of them; that there
is never proof to those who have thus
squared themselves" that the money
ever reached the proper disposition.
Treasury officials now recognize this
1ereliction, and separate accounts will be
kept in future, if for no other purpose
than to enable public officials to vindi-
cate themselves from anonymous assail-
ants who may impugn their trustworthi-
ness.--National Tribune.

Chinese Dudes.

China is perhaps the last place in the
world where one would expect to find
dudes and mashers, but it appears that
in Shanghai the gilded youth among the
Celestials have adopted the masher CO.'S
tune. Very curious they look in their
high collars and tight fitting coats They
have also taken to wearing foreign un-
derclothing, eating foreign foods, smok-
ing foreign tobacco and doing many
other things contrary to the old fash
ioned Chinese usage. They also ride in
foreign carriages, men and women to-
gether, and some of them live in foreign
houses in grand style. There are also
hundreds of schools kept by Chinese
where nothing but English is taught,
that being considered the most useful
language.-London Globe.

than in the south sections of the State.
AS citizen of Los Angeles once put it:
Il notice that with you in the north,
when some pushing man with an idea
and public spirit moves, you are prone
to draw back and whisper among your
selves, What is he going to make out of
it, what is under it?' With our people
the general desire is to get in with the
man. help him along and share his sup
positions benefits" A homely illustra-
ton, but one full of suggestion.
We will never attain the position as
communities in this splendid heritage,
thag our rich endowment justifies, until
we pull more together and are content to
let whom will have credit, so long as the
whole people benefit by any public effort;
to cease searching for ax-grinding, and
be more just and humane in judging-in
other words, to let the merit of every
scheme, the worth of every man, and the
fruit Of all effort determine the measure
OF our interest in them.

THE SPIRIT OF DIsrRUsr.

We had occasion to comment sharply
and somewhat extendedly the other day
upon the detestable disposition, the out
growth of intolerance, jealousy and cir
cumscribed vision, to impugn motives.
An example was given of the work of
this journal in behalf of public interest.
wholly unselfsh, and prompted by the
highest public spirit, but which was
criticised as the result of ignoble pur-
pose, and the fruit of vulgarly selfish
ends.
If this disposition was confined to the
few its manifestations would be un-
worthy of notice. Unhappily it is too
general to be ignored. 1t would seem to
be quite impossible in California to pro-
mote any scheme of public concern and
benefcence without encountering the
charge that unworthy motive underlies
it. With the courageous, conscious Of

The defeat of the German army bill
will not daunt Emperor William. We
have come to understand him to be a
most determined man, and one who ac-
complishes the ends he has in view
sooner or later. The faith of the German
people in their Emperor is steadily aug
menting, and his hold upon the affections
and loyalty of Germans is greater with
each new day. The election of June 18th
wedo not believe will result in gains for
the Socialistic Democrats-indeed it is
probable that they will have difficulty in
maintaining their present strength. Ger
many is not ready for the radical changes
that socialists intimate the nation must
deal with speedily upon social lines. The
recent imaginative work ofHerr, Richter,
in which he draws a picture, in fancy,
of Germany under absolute socialistic
rule, will have its influence. 1t is
most deplorable scene that he de-
picts with vivid pen, and presents the
dangers of realization of the Bellamy
ideal in manner to alarm the people
and expose the utter folly of the whole
scheme. For in fact the Socialistic Demo-
Gratis of Germany are nothing more nor
less than Bellamyites. Under their
scheme everything is to be nationalized,
and the logic of it goes so far that even
the domestic relations are involved, and
the bonds between parent and child,
and husband and wife are endangered.
Richter's book has created profound
impression, and its influence will assur-
edly be manifest in the June election,
and adverse to the socialists.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

The Calaveras Citizen has just entered
upon the twenty third year of its exist
ence. In passing the milestone it pauses
to pay its respects to the class of people
who have sought its help to secure public
positions, and who have then given their
patronage to others, sometimes taking it
out of the county. 1t had reason to
"kick," and it does so in plain and forci-
BILE language. The paper has worked for
the interests of Calaveras County for
twenty-five years, and it deserves the
patronage and support of the citizens of
that county.
The record-union., 1893-05-09

their own rectitude, these assaults count
for nothing. The sincere journal, or the
philosophical citizen, is not deferred by
such obstacles. Unfortunately, how
ever, there are a great many sensitive
souls moved in their activity by the
broadest human concern and the noblest
promptings, to whom the charge of un-
worthy motive is shock that paralyses
the energies.
All such need the sustaining aid of the
more robust and fearless. They need to
be advised that human nature is not, as
yet, all we would have it; that those who
enter the lists for human good must ex-
pect precisely such threats, receive them
without shrinking, and convert them
into spurs to still greater efforts and
more persistent labors.
Unquestionably this disposition in So
cial, political and commercial life is in
California greatly more manifest than in
the older sections of the Union. The
Jealousies and backbitings, and impugn-
ing OF motive among Californians have
had great deal to do in checking State
progress; they have prevented the prefer
ment of California intellect and political
genius; they have kept the best product
OF the State back. and shackled and con-
fined it. They have prevented California
from taking the place among the States
to which she is entitled by right.
Quite as surely as we develop men
whom we may present to the great East
as representative, and for whom we ought
to claim in the name of all California
preferment and prominence, there arise
Jealousies, suspicious and opposition
that not only make US contemplate in the
eyes of our Eastern brethren, but which
put it quite out of their power to recog-
nize our chosen sons. If the people of
the East are to believe tenth of what
CaIIfornlans are given to saying of their
leading men and developing geniuses,
they must conclude that we are not pro-
ducing intelligences worthy to fill places
of trust or distinction. Let US ponder
upon the simple truth that we will not
gain that recognition in the East which
we so much desire until we sink selfish
ness and jealousies in the common effort
to present California in every line of
product, mental and physical, without
airing our quarrels, jealousies and NOR
bid suspicious before the world.
