When we WALK forth in retrospective
meditation through the course of the Cabi-
net construction that Mr.. Cleveland has
carried ON in his own mind. we seem to
be moving in a graveyard under the shade
of grove of the gloomy cypress and the
weeping willow. We find all along the
way baff1ed ambitions aud broken hopes.
Now that Fairchild and Bayard and
Dickinson and Whitney are as far from
the feasting as Isaac Pusey Gray or
Garland or Endicott, we pause over the
memories of that memorable Chicago
Convention, where Whitney presided in
the apartments Of European hotel. and
Fairchild sacrificed himself in silence for
the sake of giving Tammany the rebuke
of his grief beyond expression, while
Bayard bestowed dignified advice with
the decorum gathered in four consecutive
generations of voluminous craftsmanship,
and Dickinson promenaded through the
damp aisles, regardless of the ceaseless
thunder, the quivering lightning and the
ferocious rain.

Imitation Jewelry In Paris.

The manufacture of imitation iewelry
in Paris dates from the reign of Louis
XIV. the luxury Of dress both for La
dies and gentlemen at that epoch max
ing imperative the wearing Of an i'm
mense number Of trinkets. The coat
and dress buttons and the hat and shoe
buckles manufactured in false diamonds
during that reign and those of Louis XIV
and Louis XVI remain the most perfect
specimens of that kind of trinket in ex-
istence. The fine finish of the settings
and the brilliancy of the stones leave
nothing to be desired, and very fortu-
nate is the Partisan belle who has inher-
tied from her ancestors any of these
beautiful and artistic ornaments.
Modern imitation jewelry is of an in
finite number of grades, beginning with
the ordinary stage trinkets, In unmistak-
able glass and gilt brass, made only with
view to effect and glitter behind the
footlights. Yet, though without any
claims to deception as regards their true
quality. they are often interesting as
being accurate reproductions of antique
or historic jewels. Such were the orna-
ments designed and executed for Nine.
Bernhardt's impersonation Of "Theo-
dora," and of like quality are many of
the ornaments manufactured for the
wardrobe department of the grand op-
era.-Ladies' Home Journal.

Emperor williams Defeat.

The defeat of the German army bill,
from whatever point of view it is re-
garded, is a very serious affair. In the
first place it increases, only little, per-
haps, but still increases, the probability
of war. The emperor, rebuffed at home,
cannot accept any kind of rebuff abroad
and will be far more sensitive than be-
fore about slight incidents and more in
clined to believe that France or Russia
is taking advantage of his situation.
Moreover, Frenchmen will think that
the internal struggle will weaken Ger
m0ny, as it would weaken France, and
the hope of finding a moment to fight
Germany when she is weak is exceeding
ly keen. Too much must not be made
Of this danger, because the rulers of
France are much better informed than
her journalists and can see that decla-
ration of war would at once reunite the
German people, but still it exists and
must be recorded. In the second place,
it is probable that the rejection of the
bill does leave Germany weaker than she
should be.-London Spectator.

Two Tunes by One Orchestra.

"I have seen or heard number of in
teresting things since came to New
York." said visitor, "and one of the
things that pleased me was the music of
a band that was marching in process
sion and playing two tunes at once, the
Star Spangled Banner and Yankee
Doodle The musicians playing Yankee
Doodle played just twice as fast as those
playing the Star Spangled Banner, SO
of course the marching time was perfect.
A few days later heard an orchestra in
theater do the same thing. All the
musicians on one side of the leader played
the Star Spangled Banner" all the men
on the other side played Yankee Doodle.
/ am obliged to say that it struck me as
being rather amusing, and l wanted to
laugh at it, but didn't. I looked right
ahead, just as though were accustomed
to hearing theater orchestras play two or
more tunes at once every day. But

rather funny, and when they laughed l

A GAME OF SACRIFICE HITTING,
Likewise the Angels Fell at the
Pirates Altar.
Harper Had Sweet Revenge by Both
Pitching and Hitting.
Tho Local Players Just Lacked Enough
Runs to Win the Game, Although
They Tried for Every
thing In Sight.

It was funny game of baseball that
WAS spread out over the diamond at
Athletic park yesterday afternoon.
George Harper had little grudge against
the Los Angeles baseball team, and in
order to get even he would fill the bases
and then wind up the little ball OF string
and put it in his pocket. George was
hit hard at times. At some times he
WAS hit harder than at others, but at no
time was he hit hard enough to win the
game. If runs win games it takes hits
to make runs, especially when the nine
in the field put up the game that Stock
ton did yesterday.
Then, too, the men behind Phillip
Knell had few mishsps. He paved the
way in one inning, and his imitstors
were numerous. 1t was good game,
however, even if the Angels did lose.
Stockton had the honor of registering
the first tally and they did it in the first
inning. Mannassn beat out little tap

him to third. A wild pitch did the rest.
The Angels took two in the fourth in
ming. Hutchinson hit nice double to
right; Glenalvin followed him with a
scratch single and base on balls to
Lytle filed the bags. McCauley stole
the plate on Hulsn's fy-out to center,
and Hughes sacrificed Glenalvin in.
The pirates got these two back in
their half. Four singles came in row,
and one sacrifice finished the business.
Again the Angels made a couple at
their next turn at bat. McOauley
worked Harper for a promenade and
Sunday singled. Hutchinson's sacrifice
advanced both, and Lytle's two-bagger
did the rest.
Then the Stocktons took little lead
Knell muffed Whitehead's pop fly, and
Lytle dropped one that Klopt sent out
to left-center. Peoples got in the way
of pitched ball and the bases were FULL
Then Lawrence hit to short, but Hutch
inson threw to the thumb-han side of
the plate, and everybody was safe.
6pier sacrificed Klopt's run home. and
Harper's hit sent sent in the other.
A base on balls to Sunday and Glen
alvin, in the seventh, followed by
Hulen's triple, netted the Angels two
runs.
The visitors made a run in each of
their last two turns at bat, winning the
game. The Angels. in the ninth, got
the bases full and tried to change the
system at the plate-but it didn't work.

A Great Fish.


There was landed recently at Strom-
ness, Orkney, a halibut of extraordinary
dimensions, measuring feet 10 inches
in length and weighing no less than 245
pounds. The fish was discovered by two
lads who were engaged in hauling lob
ster creels at the back of the Holms, a
distance Of about II miles from Strom-
ness pier. It was observed on the sand
apparently asleep, and as they had no
appliances with them with which to at
tempt capture they marked the spot
and returned home to acquaint their
father.
Armed with kind of harpoon, to
which line was attached, they went
back to the place and found the huge
fish had not moved. Carefully watch
ing an opportunity. the father succeed
ed in planting the harpoon in the back
of the haGbut. The. weapon entered the
spine and rendered the fish powerless,
but on account of it size and weight it
was only after considerable difficulty
that it was got on board. It proved
splendid specimen of the halibut and
was in first rate condition. In its
stomach was found variety of small
fish, which weighed upward of six
pounds. Itwas at once carefully packed
and dispatched by steamer and rail to
the London market.-London Field.

THE FIRE ORDINANCE.
The Architects' Petition to Have II
Modified.

The ArchttectY Petition to Have 1t
Modified.
A number of architects recently pre-
sented petition to the council, asking
them to modify the fire ordinance, in
reference to the improvements made ON
property and they claimed that the Or
dinances as now existing were entire too
strict in comparison with those enforced
in larger and older cities.
1t was also claimed that the said re.
strictions detract from the value of prop
erty for rental, are q drawback to archi-
tectural establishment and add in no
way to the safety of citizens or the
beauty or value of structures. They
therefore ask that section 81 be amended
30 that no bay or oriel window in fire
limits No. hhall project on the street
line more than 3 feet by more than 8
feet wide at the bottom and less than 13
feet from the ground. Materials cover
ing said windows or balconies are to be
fire-proof. No swell fronts shall be
erected unless the walls are OF fire-proof
material, and no bay or oriel window or
balcony shall project from any
swell front. Spaces between. bay
windows are to be feet for two story
and eight feet for four story buildings.
No bay window shall be erected unless
of masonry. Bay or oriel windows in
fire limits No. 2 shall not project more
than three feet over the street line nor
be less than 10 feet from the ground.
Superintendent of Building Mr.. Eisen,
reported favorably to council on this Pc
tition and based his report on the fact
that the increased value OF the land in
district No. 2 requires many of the
building improvements to be built up to
property lines.

The Angels are getting almost lead

only to win one more game.
The public has seen all kinds of base
ball on the local diamond during the

A BALLOON ADVENTURE.
Setting on Fireworks at an Altitude OF q
Thousand Yards.

Thousand Yards.
M. John Lemoinne, the French acad-
emician and publicist who died recently,
made balloon ascension in his younger
years which cured him of the taste Of
aerostation. He was at the time bach
elor, but in spite of his wantof family
had some one who looked after him care
fully in the person of the concierge or
porter of the house which he occupied.
At the moment when the aeronaut gave
the word, "Let go allr' from the balloon
at the Hippodrome, in Paris, Lemoinne,
who was the only person in the basket
with the aeronaut, called out to friend
"Please go and tell my concierge, who's
very fond of me, that l shan't probably
sleep at home tonight. Just that-its
all that will be necessary"
Up went the balloon. A height of
1000 yards was reached.
"Now," said the aeronaut, 1--WE will set
off the fireworks"

works at this altitude. and as can't
leave this cord I'll trouble you to touch
off the roman candles. And do it care
fully, for if one of the balls should strike
the balloon off she'd go like a bombshell,
and that would be the last of us. There
they are. Now touch them off"
"Oh, yes. Certainly" said Lemoinne.
with his heart in his mouth"
The balloon was plunging this way
and that, and the great bag dipping
down irregularly. Lemoinne touched the
match to one of the roman candles,
which he held with trembling hand.

almost grazing the great plunging bag,
which he knew was filled with o highly
infiammable gas.

sputtered and famed, and little intense
patches Of fire were thrown off from it
upon the osiers of the basket.
PUT those outr' screamed the aero
naut. "They1l set the basket on firel'
Lemoinne scrambled over the basket,
putting out the sparks of fire. The ben
gal light sputtered on. A fierce breeze
struck the balloon, and it bent low al
most to the level of the basket, which
tipped sidewise fearfully. The men in
it had to cling to its sides for their life.
The fire was scattered about, and some
of the osiers Of the basket were seen to
be smoking. The thing was on fire.
Lemoinne had his choice of letting it
burn or falling 5000 feet to the earth.
If it blazed, and the fire was communi-
Gated to the bag, they would go to the
ground anyhow,
The aeronaut meanwhile was plying
the line which communicated with the
escape valve and was letting out the
gas with rush. Down went the balloon.
No more fireworks that day. The descent
was made rapidly and successfully, and
before long the ground was safely
reached.
''It was just in time" said Lemoinne,
in telling the story, "for the basket was
on fire in several places. If we had had
any difficulty in descending my concierge

PHHNIx, A. T., June 30.-The extreme
heat is driving large numbers of our
citizens to the coast or to the mountains.
Two degrees more of solar heat would
bring US up to the greatest heat of last
summer. June has been what July

caid.. Our board of school trustees now

caid. Baxter has been probate judge
and ex-officia county superintendent for
several years. A superintendent of our
city schools is vital necessity and
would meet our wants.
The cry of the ranchers is water |!
water! Less water than last year is the
testimony of all concerned. More and
more we are seeing and feeling the need
of large and extensive reservoirs to
preserve the surplus that now goes to
waste, and save it until the time OF
need.
Our business men and bankers seem
to move along without any sign of panic.
The feeling OF confidence seems abso-
lutte, and augurs we'll for our new and
thriving city. Real estate shows no
signs OF declining, but is little uppish.
Our new city charter was carried by 6
large majority in our election of Mon
day week. We now propose to take in
the numerous additions, increasing our
area and our corporation population 200
per cent. In about six months we will
be out of debt and ready for enlarged
