stone Lithography Discovered.

One of the greatest discoveries ever
made was the result of the purest acci-
dent, says Stone. 1t was the year 1896
The citizens of Munich had Just wit
messed the first triumphant performance
OF Mozarts opera, Don Juan - and the
theater was deserted by all save one man
Alois Sennetelder, who, after maxine. 4
round of inspection in the building to See
that no sparks had ignited anything COM
bustlbIe. retired to his room TO stamp the
tickets OF admission for the day follow
ing. When he entered his apartments
he had three things in his hand-a pol
lshed milestone which he had purchased
Tor sharpening razors, a ticket stamp still
molstened with printing ink, and a check
on the treasurer OF the theater for his
weekly salary. AS he placed the latter
upon the table gust of wind swept it
high up in his room for moment and
then deposited 1t in a basin filled with
water. Sennefelder dried the wet paper
as well as he could and then weighted it
down with the milestone, upon which he
had before carelessly placed the printing
stamp. When he returned to his room
the following morning he was astonished
at seeing the letters of the stamp printed
with remarkable accuracy upon the
dampened paper. A thought came to
him. lie wondered whether bv some
such means he could not simplify his
work OF continually copying the songs of
the chorus. lie went out and purchased
a large stone, commenced making experi-
ments, and, as we all know, finally dis
covered the art OF printing from stone
lithography.

INSTEAD OF ICB-WATER
Some Agreeable summer Substitutes
are Suggested Here.

If you would go down to fame as a
model housewife, let cooling drinks
abound in your house. 1t is useless to
tell people how much better they would
be if they were not always trying to
quench their thirst. The only thing to
do is to give them some comparatively
harmless beverage with which to do it.
Ginger beer is made in this way: Peel
four lemons very thinly and place the
rind and the strained juice OF the fruit IN
an earthenware pan, add two and a half
pounds of sugar, two ounces of freshly
ground ginger and half an ounce ofcream
of tartar. Mix these Ingredients: then
pour on to them two and half gallons Of
boiling water and leave until cool, when
two tablepoontuls Of brewers yeast
spread on toast must be put into the
mi xture; leave it till next day, when the
froth on the top must be carefully
SKINNED OIL, and the ginger will then be
ready to bottle. The bottles used should
be stone ones if possible, and the corks
| should lie tied in. In two days the gin
ger beer will be resdy for use.
Orangeade - Use three oranges to a
quart Of water and six tablespoonfuls OF
sugar. Pare the yellow skin from the
fruit and slice and squeeze the oranges
over the sugar. Add a little water and
rest of the water; ice well and stir.
Roman punch-MiX three large cups OF
strong, sweet lemonade with glass OF
champagne, a glass of rum, the Juice Of
two oranges and the beaten " hites of TWO
eggs, into which half pound of powd-
cred sugar has beeu stirred. Ice plenti-
! fully.
! Sherry cobbler-In the bottom of a
wide-mouthed pitcher place a layer Of
! sliced pineapple, 2 slice of lemon and
slice of orange. Sprinkle with sugar and
| pounded ice; put in another layer of fruit
! and then another of Ice, untn pineapple,
lemon and an orange have been used.
| Cover with ice and sugar and let 1t stand
| for few minutes. Add two tumblers of
water. Stir well, put in more pounded
| ice and add tumbler OF sherry.
Claret punch-SIice two lemons: cover
with sugar; add half a claret bottle of
water. stir and pour in bottle OF claret
Put pounded ice in each glass before fill
| ing with the mixture.

Lawn and Lace.

The silk skirt no longer occupies the
proud position which belonged 10 it a
few months ago. 1t has a rival-possiblv
a successor. This is the white skirt.
trimmed in the most lavish fashion with
lace and hounces. Every woman who
really aspires toward elegance NOWADAYS
has at least one or two which would com
pare not untavorably with a ballet
dancers for rutfles.
The simplest ones are of very fine
white cambric or lawn, with deep and
very full hounce of softer material, edged
with white lace. In others, the fiounce is
composed OF alternate rows of fine tucks,
and lace insertion, and a lace friII is
gathered at the foot Of the founce. Some
have narrow rutfles of lace, with deep
hounces Of lace and lawn hanging over
them. And the crowning touch of ele-
gance is reached when the head of the
tounce is piece Of insertion with rows
OF narrow ribbon drawn through, tying
In frivolous bows every few inches.

YOUNG TROTTERS
Sacramento Colts to start at the Val

cdCESSuleuIO NOIIS TO start at Jn6 al

Tomorrow the Solano and Napa Fair
opens at Vallejo, and several horses that
are to compete in the races there left here
last night.
Among the lot were three from Messrs.
Buckman " Carragher's River View

There are George Dexter, the three-year-
old stallion which made such a good
showing last year as atwo-year-old, when
be defeated .Dahgestan, the Stamboul
colt, and later made a record on the
stockton track of 2:294. George Dexter

He will meet several tough customers
again this season, among them Palo
Altos great tilly Rowena, Dahgestan.
May Best and Adelaide Simmons. some
of these will be encountered at the Vallejo
meeting this week, and others next week
at NaDa, where twenty-one of the best
colts on the coast are entered in the three
year-Old open trot. Rowena and May
Best can, it is thought, go far below the
2:20 mark, and the winner will have to
pick up his or her legs very rapidly.
In the District three-year-old stake at
Vallejo River View Farm will start Mid
day, by MONDAY, dam Amber, by Mon
roe Chief. This tilly was not in condition
as a two-year-old, and this will be her
first season. She is said to be very speedy.
Buckman x Carragher will also start

NIuch Like q Rahv

''A new play is a good deal like a
baby" said Ben Teal, the expert stage
manager. you have to coddIe it and
nurse and doctor it and monkey with it
from the very start, and this with no GER
tainty that it will come to anything after
all your time and trouble. 1t may die on
your hands before it can walk; it may
linger along in sickIy, doubtful state,
giving no intimation Of what the end
may be, and it may pick up with wise
treatment and careful attention and prove
worthy OF your trouble. But even a nice.
healthy baby Will die easily of exposure
and indifference; so will a good play
badly handled. 1t is ticklish business

BRIEF NOTES.

Near Summit station, early on Satur-
day morning, COW derailed several cars
of a fruit train, and much Of the fruit was
ruined.
William Nagle has been fined s. for
disturbing the peace of his wife, and
Joseph Altman s. for battery on man
named Perkins.
Deputy Sheriff Foley caught worth
less fellow named Wardner handing
package Of opium to a member of the
chaingang Saturday and arrested him.
Charles Harvey, who pleaded guilty to
stealing some carpenters tools from a
building on Fourteenth street, has been
sent to the County Jail for sixty days.
Joe Plasa, who was recently fined in the
Police Court for disturbing the peace at
tamale joint, was locked up on Saturday
by officer Abern for inaugurating row
at Fourth and K streets.
Bishop B. II. Lee, of the African NJ. Z.
Church, who arrived recently from New
Jersey, on his way to the conference at
Marysville, occupied the pulpit OF Rev.
w. Il. Green, pastor of the local church,

officer Ahern Runs In NIuch-Looked-
For Prisoner.
A congregation of hobos engaged in
fight on Front street Saturday afternoon,
two being pitted against four, because
one of the minority had a little money,
with which the others wanted him to buy
liquor.
Officer Ahern arrested them, and with
the aid of the ambulance wagon took
them to the station.
After their arrival there he found to
his surprise and qualification that one of
them was an ex-convict named Hickey,
for whom the police have been looking
long time. He will probably have to
answer to a more serious charge than
disturbing the peace before he again
mingles with the outer world.

THE POISON DISPBN SER.
lie Keeps Up His Crusade Against
Dogs and Poultry.


Dogs and Poultry.
The scoundrelly dispenser of poison is
still at his hellish work. On Friday night
at least half-doZen valuable dogs were
poisoned in the various parts of the city
dogs, too, that never annoy anyone.
Not only are dogs being poisoned
nightly, but the infamous wretch who
distributes the poison, has also started in
poisoning chickens.
on Friday night c. Gibfried, who re-
sides at l425 X street, heard commotion
in his rear yard and FASTENED out, but
the intruder had got away. Gibfried
went out again early in the morning and
found that scraps of poisoned meat had
been thrown into his poultry yard, but
he discovered it in time to prevent auy of
them from getting hold of it.
Among the dogs poisoned was the
handsome and intelligent setter, owned
by L. NJ. Woodson, at Seventh and \
\ streets. What the poisoner's motive
can be is mystery, but there is no mys-
terry about what will happen TO him if
caught.

Loving Spirit In a Canary Bird

A Philadelphia gentleman has q
canary that he calls Noah. He allows
Noah an occasional free flight in the
garden. One day when time was up
the bird declined to come into the
house or be taken in, but when ap-
preached few off space. He would
then fly back, still declining to be taken
in. At last his performance induced
his owner to 60 out and follow. At
once he burst into joyful song and
flew away, keeping few feet ahead
and looking back coaxingly.
[ followed, and he led me to q rose
bush at the other end of the garden,
but | could not see what brought him
until, with series of loud staccato
notes, he flew down beside heap of
yellow leaves. Then I saw laying
there what l took to be dead canary,
but when l stopped and took it in my
hand it feebly stirred. 1t had evidently
been out all night and was nearly fro
zen. Noah was delighted, and would
fly from me to the invalid in his bed of
coarse cotton twenty times q minute,
trilling his prettiest song and chirping
as if to say, How are you feeling now,
brother ?" Here is this sweet spirit of
helpful love of others without desire of
gain, such as would honor any human
character.
