A Spirited Runaway.

Yesterday afternoon, about O'Clock, a
spirited runaway of a team attached to a
buggy took place on Third street, near
the corner OF Laughlin. The gentleman,
who was driving, stepped out of the vehi-
Gle TO arrange the harness, leaving a little
boy about 5 years old on the seat After
he had fixed the harness, the animals be-
came frightened and one of them kicked
him In the face while attempting to get
in the buggy. This was impossible, and
then he attempted TO take the little boy
out of his perlious position; but the
horses had, by this time, gained consider
able speed, and he was forced to deslst
The horses ran violently up the brewery
hill, clrcled around the streets in the bluff
addition, and was finally brought to
stand in the alley near the residence OF
Hon. Robert Mays. During all this time
the little boy managed to keep his seat,
and, although very much frightened, was
not injured. He thought he had good
opportunity to take free ride; but this
experience of his will effectually cool his
boyish ardor of taking a ride whenever
an opportunity presents itself

Another Fake"

There are all kinds OF duplicity extant
by which men attempt to procure money by
dishonest means from uususpecting indiyid-
uals. The latest of which we have heard,
is the dead relative, who has left consider
able valuables but who Is delinquent for his
board bill during his last illness. 1t is
strange that such schemes should be at
tempted on Pacific coast people. who have
the general reputation of being sup to
SNUFF in such matters; but that such is the
case the following letter addressed to resi-.
dent of Boyd-whose name we withhold by
request-will amply verify:

A Fairy Scene.

1t is spring time and the wire trellis on
the west side of a piazza is a mass OF white
flowers, contrasting beautifully with
it's deep green foliage and the buds and
half blown roses ana fully expanded
flowers of its nearest neighbor, the Wal
than Queen. Being planted in closeprox-
unity, the branches of the rose being in
te"woven with the vine, the effect, when
blooming in the food-tide Of their glory,
is like a glimpse in fairy land or a pic
ture from Arabian Knights.
The Ryneos Pernum JasminOides when
at the zenith of it's splendOr is very sug-
gestiv OF snow flakes having nestled
among it's foliage, so etherial-like are it's
blossoms.
The Waltham Queen has long pointed
buds OF rare and unique shade, nature
only occasionally uses this choice shade,
and then for the choicest OF flowers Why
sheso seldom dips her brush in this shade
is mystery. Perhaps it is all the more
appreciated, seeing it SO seldom.
Theselong pointed buds of Syrian Rose
peep out so coquettishly from in among
the snow flakes that your "ohs'' and
"ah's" and chow pretty are inadequate
to express your admiration; you exhaust
all the djectives in the supurlative degree
and then in spell bound admiration drink
in another draught of beauty.

tanned chiefly from Malabar, Ceylon and
Sunda Islands. The pepper plant is .
climber with stem about as thick as
mans finger and usually attains height
of twenty-five to twenty five feet. It
attaches itself to some tree. The leaves
are oval in shape and the berries are
borne in long clusters. They are about
the size of peas and change from green
to yellow and then dull red. They ale
gathered when green, dried and sent
into the market as black pepper. White
pepper IS made from ripe fruit after the
red covering is removed. The pepper
plant is cultivated to quite an extent in
America. The greatest quantity is OBJ
tanned from the East Indies, and the
best quality from Malabar.
Cinnamon Cinnamon zeylanicum,)
through a wildling is largely cultivated
in gardens. The bushes, which grow
to height of ten and twelve feet, are
set in rows four or five feet apart They
somewhat resemble those of the hazel"
nut and have leathcry leaves which
when crushed send out fragrance like
that of the pink. The small flowers are
of greenish yellow color and have
faint scent not very agreeable. The
gathering of the spicy bark takes place
twice year, in May, June and NOvem-
Der; plants are more full of sap in the
autumn. AS is we'll known to those who
have tasted the unground bark, the
thinner sort is far superior to the coarser
grade in flavor. This is white when
gathered and has very little scent or
taste, but when dried it changes to a
delicate brown color and is very aro-
matte. Cinnamon grows largely in the
island of Ceylon. There is some inter-
esting history respecting it of which we
