JINGLING BELLS.
They Greatly Disturb a Downtown
Hotel.

There was a lot of excitement in the
Occidental Hotel for short time yester-
day forenoon, and those gentle youths who
answer to the general name Front" and
who always insist upon bringing you ice
water when you want writing material,
climbed up and down more flights of stairs
in fifteen minutes than it is their usual
custom to climb in a week.
The clerks around the place also did n
little perspring and rushing, for the bells
in the r0om-register came ringing in with
such rapidity that it was thought that
either the house was on fire or every guest
within 1t had suddenly become possessed
with desire to have some want satisfied.
Eight was the first call that came in, but
before the boy was half way up the stairs
twenty-ihree had registered.
"Great Sc0tt!' exclaimed the clerk, and
then he sent his two assistants to help the
callboys. They had but fairly started
when the rest of the rooms came in with a
bang.
The clerk jumped. The guests who
were lounging about in the reclining
chairs started for the sidewalk, and Gavin
McNab, who lad been talking politics to
friend, stopped and looked for moment
as if he believed the Pepper boom had
burst.
Then to add to the confusion the boys
who had started out in response to the
first call came back and reported that the
guests did not want them and were angry
because they had been disturbed.
Just what might have happened in
that hotel it is hard to conjecture. but it
was not permitted to happen.
An emp0ye of the Electric Light Com
pany entered the place just when the ex-
element was at~its height and bells were
Changing away at a great rate. He i'm
mediately realized what was causing the
disturbance and started in search of some
crossed wires. He found them. straight
ened the affair aud now peace again reigns
in the hotel.

Salt Water Company.

Adolph Sutro. has filed suit 10 the Su-
perior Court. against the Olympic Salt
Water Company for an Injunction to re-
strain the company now LAYING pipes OF B
street. leading to their pun ping station.
Sutro claims that the grade on sire ct
has not been properly established and that
the pipes are laid ten feet above the proper
grade, and in consequence will be an OBJ
struction when the grading of the street is
finished. Sutro has already once petitioned d
the Supervisors to have the work then
being done stopped. but no action was
taken In the matter.
Failing in this, Sutro offered the Salt
Water Company piece of property ad :
joining b street to use as pumping station.
but the cub refused his offer, and hence
the suit filed Yesterday.

of arrest yesterday, directed to the Sheriff.

matter being brought 10 the attention of
the court, an order for Atchisop'S S arrest

a meeting of the local railway agents
OF transcontinental lines was held in the
Southern Pacific offices at Fourth and
Townsend streets Yesterday afternoon.
II was thought that the meeting would re-
suit in some definite action in regard to
commissions being taken and that the
Southern Pacific officials in endeavorng to
abolish commissions would produce stu-
alton anything but harmonious
But 1t seems that either the Southern
Pacific or the agents are not ready for
definite action yet and nothing at all was
done at the meeting. The agents met and
after a short talk agreed 10 adjourn to
some future time subject to the call of tn e
chairman. SO the situation remains the
same as heretofore and agents will re-
ceive commissions and are at liberty to
sacrifice them in making cuts as they see fit.

firm believer in regular work and over the
mantel in his study at his country house at
Medan has carved the motto, 'Nulla dies

says himself that he writes slowly and
with some difficulty, but always thinks out
his sentences so carefully that there are
few corrections in his manuscript His
average daily output he estimates at l, 500
words.
Zola's luxurious home in the Rue de
BruXelles in Paris shows him to be lover
of artistic bric-a-brac, an admirer of pretty
things for the sake of their beauty more
than for their intrinsic value and is con-
trastingly suggestive of his miserable Bo-
hemian days, when, he says, he was with
out money, without work, starving most of
the time and reduced to the most dreadful
expedients for meal of bread and cheese. 4"
The study in which he works and where
he often receives his friends is full of char
acteristic evidences of the taste and dis
position of the man. The high backed chair
in which he sits might once have been the
seat of royalty ,and the scarf of embroidered
silk thrown over its back would make a
stole for bishop. Upon his huge writing
table everything is methodically arranged,

without hesitation, but has a nervous
cough and soon tires. His age is SO years.

new verifcation of the Scriptural promise,
"Whosoever hath to him shall be given, and
he shall have more abundance" Possessing
genius, man may achieve fame, and then
wealth and honors are showered upon him.
The rule is not invariable perhaps, but the
exceptions prove it.
Though Mr. Hunts fame has been great
ly increased by his work at the White City,
It by no means rests solely upon that. He
has done much to beautify New York city,
The handsome residence of w. X. Wander
bilt and the marble skyscraper of the Met
ropolitan Life Insurance companyat Twen-
ty-third street and Madison avenue were
designed by him, as were all the numerous
business buildings recently erected by the
Goelet family. The pedestal of the Bar
tholdi statue of Liberty in New York bay
is a monument to his genius, and many of
the beautiful country houses erected by
metropolitan millionaires testify to his
taste and skill. He has been remarkably
successful also in financial way, for his
income is estimated at s150000 year.
Mr. Hunt is a native of Vermont. He
was born at Brattleboro Oct 81, 1929 He
was educated at the Boston high school
and Harvard university and afterward
studied architecture in Geneva, Paris and
elsewhere in Europe. He was member of
the jury on architecture OF the Paris exposi-
tion of 1867, since which time he has been a
resident of New York city, He is president
of the American Architectural society,
which is an evidence of how his professional
brethren delight to honor him and may be
an indication of the judgment that an en-
lightened posterity will pass upon his work.

Sidney, O., to the "Mirror and Farmer:
AS am one of your patrons, saw in
recent number of your paper in the
horse department writing on the Morgan
horses, and made up my mind had
something to say IN regard to it. About
twenty-five years ago there was stock
company purchased Morgan horse in
Vermont called Hills Black Hawk Nor
gan. He was what we call a blue roam
color and could show a three minute
gait. He was one of the finest-bullt
horses | ever laid my eyes on. His
weight was about 1000, and he did more
for the horse interest in this county than
any or all the horses we ever had here or
expect to have. We owned several of
his colts and they were all fine ones, and
| would say if more attention was paid
to the Morgan horses and not so much
for speed and high flying, we should
show better lot of fine driving horses
that we are in need of. At present
there is not a good Morgan horse in this
locality.

Luck In Odd Numbers.

The ancients thought there was luck in

Grose, the good women hold it as an indis-

eggs. All sorts of remedies are ordered to

lutes of cannon consist of an odd number.
Notwithstanding these opinions in favor of
odd numbers, the number 10 is considered
