How n California Planter Amusos Himself
at the Expense OF Innocent Travellers.
Eastern visitors in California are al
ways much interested in the olive plan.
tations which, in recent years, have be.
come feature of the most southerly
counties of the state. The lovers Of the
succulent fruit when picked and bot
tied for sale in the east and north arc
always anxious to taste the olive fresh
and ripe. There is popular impression
that it is sweet and delicious; but, like
many other popular impressions, this is
a delusion aud snare.
A few miles south of San Diego,
where the railroad makes junction
with small one track road leading into
Mexico, q large planter has taken ad-
vantage Of this delusion for his own
amusement. On the arrival Of each train
from the north numerous travellers dis
mount to wait the starting OF the train
across the Mexican border. For tn cir
benefit the planter has nailed box out
sido Of his fence just across the way
from the railroad station which he keeps
filled with nice, ripe olives. A placard
invites victims in these words:

OF course there is rush from the sta.
tion as soon as the box and its contents
are discovered, and swarms Of innocents
seize tho pretty fruit and dig their teeth
into II. Then there is "A combined howl
and a great deal of expectoration and
disgust, for the delusive fruit are near

py. Just as l settled back. with sigh
Of satisfaction. even before had q
chance to become curious about my
neiRhbor, l heard from the rear Of the
car baby's frotful cry and wearied
mothers voice trying to soothe tho tired
child. Mingled with these sounds came
second mothers tone, drawling but
complacent.
Med, she said, ''hear that poor lit

never cries"
OF course my curiosity was aroused,
and turned to see the rival babies and
their mammas. The fussy little one was
in full sight. One rosy check rested on
the shoulder Of neat but travel stained
little woman. The pretty. baby blue
eyes were filed with tears, the chubby
little fellow was sucking his thumb and
doing his best TO 10 to sleep, but the
time and the place were against him.
The patient. dark eyes Of the mother
rested lovingly OH tho sweet, troubled
face of her boy as she rocked him softly
in her arms.
All this saw in q moment, and |
then tried TO look beyond this interest

his proud parent. i could not sec them,
however, because the restless little head
hid them from me, but every now and

onoiyoice, followed by the proud toro Of

AT last the train stopped with one Of
those backing, humping motions with
which we are all familiar. Then the
terrified scream of the thoroughly
aroused baby made the nervous mother
hasten to leave the car ms quickly as

SPIRITUALIsTIC FRAUD.
DR.. Alex Hume Robbed tho Va
rious Churches of Attendants.
A Rank Swindle.

DR.. Alex Hume, the spiritualistic
humhGg, appeared at the opera house
Sunday night to crowded house OF
victims. His work all the way through
was coarse, aud as far from spiritual
istic seances as night is from day.
The doctor was shrewd enough TO par
italy prepare his audience for disap-
pointment by stating that he simply
proposed TO initiate the work of cele-
brated spiritualistic artists, and that
the people could call it humbuglsm or
whatever they liked, but that he
called it bread and butterism, and
that from the size of his audience he
could see his bread buttered on both
sides for quite awhile in the future.
The general verdict was that DIR.
Hume is rank fraud and deserving
to be let alone by the people wherever
he may go. The American people are
too easily humbugged, but they seem
to enjoy cursing the perpetrators after
their money is gone.

HcCYnI Ever tho Same.

The characters in the Thousand and
One Nights" may be almost imagined to
step out of their setting words and to
take form and glow with the generous
warmth of life before ones very eyes.
The natives still drink the same coffee
and out of the same cups; they smoke the
same pipes; they wear generally the same
dress; they play the same primitive in
struments that whisper the same strange
and plaintive tones; the funeral process
sions wend their way along the streets as
of old; the popular festivals or moolidt
are still observed with the same untiring
capacity for enjoyment; the public re-
citers still practice their profession be-
fore admiring crowds; the water carriers
still carry their burdens so welcome to
the thirsty lips; except in the houses Of
the rich and thoroughly Europeanized,
the food is still eaten with the fingers
and in the same manner, and the hands
are washed in the same basins and
ewers; the mosque of El-Azhar still at
tracts it's crowds of students.
Even the old wooden locks and keys are
still in use, and the water jars are still
kept cool in the lattice work of the over"
hanging mushrabiyeh window frames.
Instances of this sort might be multiplied
hundredfold. 1t is indeed wonderful
change and contrast that is presented to
the eye when you leave the European and
enter the native quarter. -Gentleman's
