A CHILD'O LONG JOURNEY.
She Came From Sweden to Find Her
Father.
Seventy ear-Old Ereka Maemi Rall's
Venturesome Trip-Her Father
Was Waiting.

The delayed overland train from the
East, which arrived last evening, twelve
hours late, brought a wee traveller from
far-away Sweden.
| 1t was little Ereka Maemi Rail, a /
year-old miss, who came all the way
from her native land to meet her father,
whom she did not remember ever having
seen.
The story connected with her coming is
a pathetic one. Five years ago there was
deep sorrow in the cottage home of K. O..
Rail, sturdy young native Of the land
of the midnight sun; his youthful and
beloved wifef had just died and left him
and their little 2-year old daughter to
mourn her loss. He could not bear to
live about the old place where the image
of his young wife was ever before him,
so he resolved to fly to America and there
win with his strong arms ii home for him.
self and little daughter
So the child was placed in the care OF
his parents. and he babe goodby to the
land of his birth. where all his happiness
lay buried in the grave Of his wife, and
came to California. He soon found en-
ployment in this vicinity, and recently
!
one of the most thriving colonies in Sac
ramentO County.
He had been in correspondence with
his parents all the while, and recently
sent home the money necessary to pay
his little daughters fare across the ocean
and thence to the Pacific Coast.
The little maid was well-equipped by
her grandparents for the long journey,
except that she could not speak WORD Of
English. She had $50 miles to travel
alone from her home to the seacoast be-
fore her real journey began, but the trip
was safely made. She had been provided
with letter explaining the object of her
journey, and requesting steamboat and
railroad people to look after her.
Arriving in New York, she was de-
I{ained there for several days, and it was
all the officials of the immigration Office
could do to prevent her from running OFT
alone to look for her papa. Rail. how
ever, was kept posted by telegraph at all
points. He knew when little Maemi left
New York, when she arrived at Chicago,
when she left there, and OF her arrival at
various points along the railroad. through
the kindness of the railroad officials.
The only disappointment he suffered
was yesterday when the train failed To ar
rive on time. But the fond father was at
the depot when it did come, and when
the quaintly-costumed fair haired miss
stepped off the coach, Ralrs quick eye
discovered her. There was no mistak
ing the fact that the child who looked so
inquiringly through the crowd was his
little daughter, for he saw his dead wife's
features reproduced in her.
In an instant she was in his arms, and
the bystanders turned away while the
strong mans tears of JOY mingled with
those of the child who had travelled so
many thousand miles to meet him.
Rail took his little daughter to the
buggy that he had in waiting, and after
enjoying hearty supper at one OF the
best restaurants in town, the happy child
was driven TO the new home that her
father had established for them both a
short distance from Folsom.

The Deadly DIphtherla.

1t is said that the following rem
edy for diphtheria, where it has
been applied promptly, has never
been known to fail in effecting a
cure. 1t is a remedy that was dis
covered in Germany, and is said
to be the best known: At the first
indication of diphtheria in the
throat of the child, make the room
clean. Then take tin cup and
pour into it a quantity Of tar and
turpentine, equal parts. Then hold
the cup over a fire 30 as to fill the
room with the fumes. The little
patient, on inhaling the fumes, will
fall asleep. and when it awakes, it
will cough and spit mp all the
membrGneous matter, and the diph-
liberia will pass off. The fumes of
the tar and turpentine loosen the
matter in the throat, thus afford
ing the relief that has bafied the
skill of physicians. The remedy
is simply and parents should cut
this out and preserve it.

AAWAlNNater aNtiNtNfs
There is a great deal of senti-
mental gush being printed these
days about pensions, and the act of
the Pension Commissioner in sus-
few benefciaries of the
Dependent act of 1890 until they
can produce evidence that they
have disabilities that properly
bring them under that act is strong
ly denounced by the agitators, who
see a chance to make political cap
ital out of the matter. There is a
class of people in this country
who try to repeat this history in
the matter of pensions. Their slog-
an is, "Once a pensioner, always
a pensioner," and they deny the
right of the Government to make
examination into the facts to ascen-
tain whether the suspected pen
sions were granted on proper aud
sufficient evidence. The only argu-
ment that is made by these people
is that the democrats are the en-
emies of the old soldiers. They
dodge the point at issue, which is
whether the Government has been
robbed by an improper administra-
ton of the Pension Bureau. They
know that pensions have been
irregulargly issued and on INSULT
cient testimony, but to admit it
would deprive them of all their
political capital. No veteran who
is entitled to a pension under the
existing law Is going to be deprived
of it. 1t is only the ones who have
crept on the rolls through fraud,
or who counted on the continuance
of the Raum regime long enough
to enable them to do so that will
be the losers. The people should
set all political prejudice aside and
look at the facts as they exist.
Nobody will dispute that when
the act of 1890 was passed the in
tention was, and the express terms
of the law provide. that to entitle
a person to a pension under it the
applicant should prove that he was
dependent upon his own exertions
for a subsistence and that he was
unable, through some disability
not the effect of his own vicious
habits. to obtain it. 1t was under
that Interpretation of the act that
the first pensions under it were
granted. Very soon, however, the
bars were thrown down and there
was no pretense of an inquiry into
the ability of the applicant to earn
his subsistence. For some time a
board of review has been at work
upon the pension files searching
for cases which show upon their
face that the requirement of the law
has not been complied with. When
such cases are found the pensione1
is notified that his pension has
been suspended and that in order
to have it reinstated he must furn-
ish the evidence that is lacking
to show that he is entitled to a PEN
sion. Surely there is no hardship
in this, since such a simple fact is
easily shown if it has an exist
ence. 1t is only where no such
state of facts can be shown that the
order viii operate to deprive the
pensioner of his pension. and if he
is not entitled to it under the Law
he certainly ought not to have it.

The Russian government is still
buying gold as fast as possible,
and whilst in 1883 there were only
one hundred and eighty-seven mil
lion roubles in hand, in 1892 the
amount had risen to FIVE hundred
and forty-fve millions. This large
amount of gold is derived, to a
great extent, from native sources;
the gold mines being obliged to
sell all gold found in Russia to
tho government. Probably the
metal, which is not put into circu-
lation, is meant for use when war
shall break out in Europe or Asia.
