BEAUTY IN DISTRESS.
Why . Girl Swimmer sat on . Cold Ran
Till After Shutdown.

|
The whispering waves rose and fell
after the manner OF whispering waves
at Santa Cruz and elsewhere. says
the San Francisco Examiner. There
were not many bathers in the surf,
for the best of the day was past and
the smile had all gone out of the
weather.
Away out beyond the tloaB a black
speck showed now and then. 1t was
the head OF girl that swims better
than anybody else at Santa Cruz. The
float is the lii of the ordinary
swim down there, but to her the
swim to the raft is but the first step
OF journey. She swims away out
beyond the line of boats that do
what they can to make the sunset
picturesque.
She tarried at the deserted float on
the way out to sea, and when she
had gone there remained on the float
bathing skirt Skirts are rather
cumbersome in long distance swim
ming. The wind rose bit. and lit
tie by little wanton waves went over
the raft and carried the garment to
for it, and finally it left the raft and
went dancing merrily shoreward.
The bay is very breezy at Santa Cruz
and the skirt was hurried along. No
body noticed the garment until it
had floated close in and nobody paid
much attention to it then.
After while the girl who swims
better than anyone else turned her
strokes shoreward. She reached the
raft and looked for her skirt, which
by this time was being used as mop
by the washing waves on the sandy
shores. While skirt is inconvcnicnt
in long swim, it is practically in
dispensible IN walk mp the beach

SO the best swimmer at Santa Cruz
huddled up on the float. where n lad

from seeing whether she had on

Pretty soon people noticed her
and wondered why she did not come
in. The Interested sun, tarrying as
long as it could. for there was no
ladder on his side had at last set,
and it got colder and colder. More
people came to the beach to wonder
They did not think she was hurt or
in danger, for she made no cutlery,
but it did not seem possible that any
body would voluntarily sit on u wet

girls and matrons comprehendod and
giggled. Maybe some of them
thought it served her right for being

the trouble was apparent. but the
remedy was not clear. II was very
GOLD by this time and nobody wanted
to swim out TO the raft, even to res

no boat handy. and it looked for a
time as though the best swimmer at

GALLANT FRANCIS I.



The modern Fontainebleau dates
from the gallant knight errant Fran.
els ]. A giant among his courtiers,
graceful horseman, an expert
wrestler dexterous swordsman.
Francis was hailed as the glass OF
fashion and the mirror OF chivalry,
says tho Edinburg Review. Succeed
ing to the throne at moment when
the young nobility of France were
wearied of the economics of "Lc Bon
Roi Louis Douze," he enjoyed the
means as we'll as the opportunity OF
indulging his love of lavish display.
Deeply read in chivalric romances,
he had framed to himself an ideal of
knightly king, and, in the opinion
of his fatterers he united the love OF
glory and hIghbred courtesy OF Ro'
land with the virtues of the most
constant OF lovers. Amadis de Gaule.
1t was Frances and the brilliant
Pleiad OF artists whom he gathered
around him who were the true crea-
tors OF the modern Fontaine bleau.
everywhere his salamandor appears
upon the walls, ceilings and wood
work, COMMUNICATING the vic
tories of the king-to whom had
yielded the bear of the Swiss, the
eagles of the Germans, the snake OF
Milan.

1t was Francis !. who reconstructed
the ancient buildings and added ten
fold to their extent and decorative
splendor. Vast sums of money were
expended on the palace which he
called "mon Fontainebleau," his be-
loved "Chez Moi" and which was now
transformed from feudal castle into
ala varie maison des Rois," to quote
the words of Napoleon l., ala de-
meure des siecles."
All the forces which had revolu-
tionized society were reflected in
the changes effected at Fontaine-
bleau. Italian influences, grace and
refinement of manners, reverence for
classical antiquity - everything. in
short, that inspired the renaissance
movement are imprinted on the
style and the form OF the architec-
ture and the decoration.

A certain judge in Chicago who
rather prides himself on his vast and
varied knowledge of law, was com

WASHINGTON CITY Jan. 26.-fSpecial. L
Senator Squire had an interview TODAY
with the secretary of the interior on the
subject of the Mount Rainier fores. reserve
in the state of Washington, which has for
some time been engaging his attention.
The proclamation creating this reservation
will probably be issued by the president
tomorrow. The reserve is forty-two miles
square. an area OF LISA square miles, and
will constitute national park not inferior
TO the Yellowstone park, and in some re.
spects more remarkable. as ii possesses
glaciers of great extent unsurpassed
within the United States, excepting only
in Alaska, and has the additional attrac-
ton OF magnificent forests and streams.
From its heights the waters of the ocean
and Puget sound are plainly visible. This
combination of mountain, forest and sea
form together an unsurpassed panorama
of the beauties of nature.
Senator Squire says that the only
criticism he would make is the possibility
that the area set aside is too limited. The
survey as originally made was of greater
area, but it was deemed best not to include
any part of the region now occupied by
railroads or towns. Of course, the rights
OF settlers will be carefully preserved.
More than 100 views of this region have
been photographed by Cyrus A. Mosier,
special agent of the United States general
land Office, who has made extensive ex-
.piorations, details OF which are contained
in his last report, dated December 10, 1892
