SONG TO THE sEQUoIA GIGANTEA.
Is there no limit to thy upward course,
NO bounds to thy temerity,
Thou massive, heaven-As piring tree?
What awful deity stood at thy birth
And cast thy horoscope? What mighty force
Impelled Thee FIRST frm.ro to the earth,
To forge up thro' the white clouds' billowy sea
Until thou seem'st at last to touch the sky?
And pierce with green its azure canopy?
How far hast thou determine d yet to spread
Thy branches; how hieh rear thy lofty head
Above the stable earth thou stsndest on,
But in thy proud growth teemst still to scorn?
Woul1'st thou the battlements of heaven DER

CANDIDATES CROPPING UP.

Tho Situation Growing Livsiier Over
the Police Commissionership.
The work OF selecting a Republican
police commissioner to fill the vacancy
caused by the resignation of Mr.. E. L.
Stern is stirring up the liveliest kind OF
n commotion among the Republican
members OF the city council.
Any number OF candidates are materi
slizing who seem to be willing to sacri-
flee themselves for the good of their
country, and caucusing is going on upon
all sides.
Mr.. Innes. one OF the Democratic
members of the council, said yeste rday
that he was interested in seeing good
man put in, but as q Democrat he would
not try to exert any influence in the APP
pointment. II was not his fight.
Mr.. De Camp, the lumber merchant,
was mentioned yesterday as new man
who had been brought TO sthe front
throughahis ffiends, and w. FIX. Par
ker was also mentioned.
By the time Monday rolls around the
situation will be decidedly interesting,
and the council will have no lack OF
material from which to draw.

MIDWINTER FAIR TICKETS.

A Plain Statement OF the Position of the
Railroad.
Speaking with gentleman connected
with the passenger department OF the
Southern Pacific company on the sub
ject OF stop-over privileges in connec-
tion with transcontinental round trip
tickets sold in the east for the midwin-
ter fair, he said:
There still seems to be misconcep-
tion in regard to the stop-over privil-
eyes allowed on these tickets, which,
instead of being restricted either as to
the number OF stop-ovess or the time
limit when once within the state OF
California, are as liberal as could be
desired.
For instance, the purchaser of one of
these tickets starting from Kansas City
finds his ticket is good to return him to
that point until April %, 1894, and
that he has Is days to reach San Fran
cisco. Let Us assume he comes by the
way OF Ell Paso. On arrival at Los An
gees, naturally charmed with what he
seee of Southern California, he con-
cludes he would like to stay in this Sec
tion for month before going to San
Franceco. This or O longer stop-over
10 allowed, for having reached Califor-
MIA terminal, his ticket will be- good any
time within the limit OF final expiration,
April 30th. ~
Now as to the return. Let US assume
the passenger came into the state via
Ogden. has been to San Francisco, taken
in the fair and the northern section of
the state, ntarts on his homeward trip,
his ticket being routed via Los Angeles
and Ell Paso. Nominally his ticket calls
for his arrival at point of starting
Is days after leaving San Francisco.
What is actually allowed is this: AS
many stopovers as desired en- route and
as long as it is within the life OF his
ticket up to the time he reaches Ell
Paso. 1t Ia from Ell Paso, Ogden or
Portland that the 15 day limit begins on
his homeward trip. and from these
points he must reach his starting point
within the 10 days.

THE LANGFORD CASE AT AN END
Mrs. Langford Occupied the
Witness Stand Yesterday.
She Manages to More Than Offset
the Attacks of the Attorney.
She Says She Married Langford for
Love-Mrs. ELLA Langf0rd Makes
Startling Statement in
Eebuttai.

Mrs. Langford occupied the witness
in the Langford will contest.
In her direct examination the witness
totally denied ever having influenced
her deceased hueband in any way in
respect to the making of his will.
She declared that her marriage with
him wac purely love match, and
denied ever having taken any selfish
interest in his business affairs.
The witness maintained composed
demeanor and was more than match
for the attorney who conducted the
ss-examination.
The witness stated, among other
things, upon cross-examination, that
che first went to Fulton, ILL.,, about 1864
or '65.
Her age abe declared was 81 years.
She was then asked at what age che
married the deceased, Charles Langford.
This question the witness resolrtely re-
fused to answer, although asked the
question several times by Attorney
Ling.
She was only acquainted with her
husband for about month before mar
rying him. She did not know Mrs.
Langford, the divorced wife, except by
sight.
She knew Langford was divorced at
the time she married him. Langiord's
children were not present at the we'd
ding. No invitations were sent them.
Deceased told her himself in 1887 that
he had made his will, and asked her If
she would like to hear it read. She re-
fused.e sa ass
Witness declared that she married the
deceased for himself alone.
Witness was then asked whether or
not she had ever made the following
statement to Ella Langford:
II first met Langfofd when l was car
rying dinner to my father, and then
made up my mind to capture him. But
knew he had plenty of money, and was
for his beauty either, as l think he had
the homeliest face ever eaw."
An objection was interpoaed by the
witness counsel, but overruled by the
court, and the question allowed.
The witness denied ever having made
any such statement.
Witness also emphatically denied
that she was ever ostracised by the
residents in Fulton, ILL.,, on account of
her scandalous conduct in regard to
Charles Langford.
Witness was then questioned as to
why she had never informed deceased's
children concerning his last sickness and
death.
Mrs. Langford evaded the direct ques-
ton by replying that the newspapers
contained the information and she con-
sidered 1t sufficient.
Mrs. Ella M. Langford was called
next. The witness swore to Mrs. Lang
ford's having made the compromising
statement denied by Mrs. Langford on
thBHtand.
At this point the defense closed their
case and the matter was continued until
Friday for argument.
