SPEClFlC.

Specific is good word. It is much uaed in medical yap, and 1t is therefore not at all surprising to find 1t figuring in con- vsrsazione of the Board of Health. It appears that 1t did so figure in the last conversations of that useful and popular body, whose members didn't find Brother Swsyne's charges "spscifc" enough to take notice of. But after find ing the complaints against Brother SWayne .'speci6c" enough they charged him thirty dollars, and voted to ask the corporation counsel for Q specific opinion concerning the binding quality of his contract. Then they specifically expressed their entire confidence in the honesty and integrity of the officials of the Board against whom there were no specific" charges and went home 10 we'll earned and specific sleep.
 We have been wondering just what 8 "spscifc" charge against public official is. Of course 1t Is not @ charge made through the medium of a newspaper. Newspapers are only specific when they are praising and bolsteripg up public officials. Then thers is no question about the specific quality of their utterance. It goes, every time. But when a reputable newspaper prints with care and accuracy charges against public officials such charges are not "specific." And even when such @ respectable citIzsn as the Rev. Dr. New man Smyth goes before Board aud lays a ,;k ku anpanlata1v and convincingly oat he is not "speciHc." In the case of the Swsyne charges We have still another lack of epeciHcalness. By Brother Swsyne's statement, which Is cor roborated by the statement of Mayor Sargent, it appears that Brother Swsyne had, several days before the conversszione of the Board of Health, told the mayor what was going on. The revelation was made in the presence of Brother Swsyne's wife, and no denial of that fact Is made by the mayor. The mayor Is not only the chief expounder and de.
 fender of the City Charter. He is
 aleo tke president of the Board
 of Health. As president of the Board he
 took part in the conversations, and said
 "specific" when the word went around.
 So 1t seems to be plain that ths Swsyne charges, though made through 6 reputable newspaper and made tc the mayor of the city and tn. president of the Board of Health, wert not 'speci6c." And Brother Swayne Ii
 said to be wondering how some of the of ficlsls of the Board of Health had sucl Specific" knowledge of his talk witl l Mayor and President Sargent.

The SapoIeon. as SovelIsts.


 Some curious revelations have recently been made as to the moral and mental characteristics of the BonSpsrtes; but none of these more or less authentic die closures of hidden motives aud masked habits strikes the world with such sur prise az the discovery that both Napoleon I. and Napoleon III. tried their hands st novel writing The outline of le petit cap oral's romance was found not long ego among a bundle of papers cOraded to his uncle, Cardinal Fesoh, before sailing for St. Helena If its txis.ence Was known 10 the family the reasons for its suppression will be readily understood, when We eay that 1t is conceived in the biuerest spirit of CoIs!csn hatred against France and Frenchmen. IL was roughed out just On the eve of the defence of Toulon, where the young lisutsusnt of artillery laid the foundation of his future fortune. The sty le is said to bear soms analogy to that of Jules Verne.
 The nephex's literary project wss more ambitious. He conceived the idea of bol- sterIns up the imperial regime by the aid of fiction. So far ss can be judged from the scenario drsughtsd by BAdinget's own hand, the result wou.d have been e work of portentious dullness. NJ Bsnoit, 6 worthy grocer of Paris.

Perhaps the funniest feature of the whole programme Is the detailed enumeration of each Item which vas to be glorifed by the romancers' art. The bald iist reads like c manifesto of the London county council.
 But even more extraordinary than this emanstion from the brain of e man whose own life surpassed in fantastic in- terest the widest product of imagination Is the undoubted fact thst Napoleon LII. seriously contemplated dramatic author ship. He called to his assistance that experienced playwright, M. Edmond Con- dtnet, and submitted to him the outlines of couple of pieces, one to be entitled 'Les Alsrmistes" and the other "Les Idees de Monsieur" Each of them hsd polit- icsl aim, aud NJ.

FLAG DAY.


 Flag Day was all right in this region. No better day was ever seen SO far as the weather was concerned. The display of flags was very general, and as they waved in the soft airs and the bright sunshine they looked bright and glorious. The at- tention paid to the day is encouraging. While there is just now no need of lively patriotism ia defense of the country against foreign foes there is great need of it in defense of some of the ideas upon which the country was founded, and which have made it a good coun- try to live in. The Stars and Stripes, wherever and whenever seen, should be an inspiration to love of lib. erty. They should be an inspiration to effort for the preservation of equal rights. They should be an inspiration to effort for good government, to the end that ''gov- ernment of the people, by the people, for the people, shall net perish" And they should be an inspiration to effort against the insane and bloody spirit of anarchy. It ia we'll to have @ special Flag Day, but every day in the year should be flag day in the minds and the hearts of the citizens of this republic. Only so can that expeIi- ment in government which Is the hope of the world be made successful. "Forever float that standard sheet," and forever en- dare that of which 1t Is the glorious em- hlam

Sailor Hats " whfch are wave-Struek.
 The sailor hat Is much in vogue, but since the Alpine was declared to be the proper shape for wear with tailor costumes, 6 tidal wave of decoration has struck the poor sailor and knocked 1t into mass of frivolity which is intended to be worn only ip fair weather. The most common fnish shows 8 rosette on either side and s perky cocks feather rising straight from each rosette. Sometimes this side trim ming Is accomplished by binding the hat about the band with wide ribbon, which folds down to the required width and at the sides Is drawn through buckle set up- right.

 Is there no remedy for extravaganza Practically, We expect there is none, ex. cspt poverty, for the habit of spending has Its root in character rather than in cir cumstsnces CT in training; but there are two or three correctives which, if man suspects himself of the foible, he may possibly induce himself to adopt. oae Is never to spend anything fresh without considering quietly whether he really de- sires the thing the expsnditure Is to buy. Will he care about I. the day after the purchasel He will fud nine times out of ten that If he can resist his impulse for twenty-four bours he can resist 1t alto gether; that the value of the money will gtow in his eyes, and not the value of the thing ne thinks SD indispensable. Apoth- CT Is. never to be betrayed into new re. current expenditure. Money gone is mon. ey gone; but it Is the compulsiou to let il go many times over which ruins so many otherwise sensible men. To a profession al man who Is just succeeding, an expendI- ture ot three hundred pounds on & wbim SeNA 1eeAAo aAo ID IuL tu ErA uD . carriage and pair mssus in ten years 6 reduction of three thousand pounds, he sides the interest, from the sun which is to maintain him when ou. of work, and give his children the ohsncs iu liis wniul he probably desireP. A shilling for 6 ci gar Is not great extravaganza; but three chilling cigars day Is equivalent to 8 to- tai loss, without any return, of five hun drsd pounds every ten years.
 Aud the third corrective is to buy no,h. ing of any sort without paying for 1t a; once. It Is the bills wh,ca come in twlcs a year that cripple a man, who will find that if be psys al once the money sssumtt new importance in his eyes.

the buckle and then the ribbon continues
 its course around the hat, the joining of
 the ribbon being under one of the buckles.
 All shapes and variations of the sailor are
 correct, the high crown and the low, the
 wide brim and the other kind, all are per.
 mitted. The plain, simple sailor hat is
 still all right, though rather ''still," per
 hsps, amid the rush the others are making towards frivolity.
 The hat model of this picture Is made of black tulle over a wire frame with . slightly wsvy brim. The wire Is covered with chenille on both sides and the crown Is encircled by ribbon which ties in big bow in the back. A tulle pompon togeth- CT with s bunch of roses completes the gsrniture.

 Apropos of the recent death of grand nephew of Napoleon I, the Paris papers state that the relatives of the latter still living in Europe are the following per sons: Lucien Napoleon, Prince of Ca- nino, and better known under the name of Cardinal Bonaparte, grandson of Lucien, Nspoleon's brother; Princess Gabrielle del Drago; Prince Napolson Charles, with his two daughters, Marie. the wife of Lieu tenant Gotti, of the Italian army, and Eugenie, born in 1s72; Roland Napoleon, who has one daughter. and Princess Jeanne, Msrquise de Villeneuve. Of the descendants of Jerome, another brother of Napoleon I, there are Princes Louis and Victor, and Princess Lsetitis, Duchess of Aosts, children of Prince Napoleon, who died at Rome March 19, 1891. Finally, the living descendants of Caroline, Ns- poleon's sister and Murat's wife, are Countesses Gsddi, Taveegi and Matevcci- Garini, grandnieces of Napoleon I, his grest-grandniece, and Primes Ponteoorvo, his great-grandnephew.
 Sir John Gorst, a member of the English parliament, has been spending 8 number of weeks in a clcss personal study of the condition of the poor in the east end of London, and has made some of his conclu- sions public. He says that complete spsthy rather than struggle appeared to be the mood of the majority of the poorest in- habitants of the district. Nearly all the thoughtful people in the east end are so- cislists, rather of the Fabian type. Many call themselves ansrchists-not, however, of the bomb-throwing order. Their theory is that ultimately they will do without CO., ercive government. They hold that the means of industrial production should be in the hands of the state. They have a great antipsthy to the rich ground landlords, and to wealthy men gene- rally, whom they denounce ss capitalists. With regard to the condition of the slums, Sir John Gorst says that many of them have been destroyed, but new ones are created. Many of the so-cslled model dwellings are little bstter than slum houses. The most common object of complaint among the poor is that of excessive and in- violence on the part of the police One of the results of the efforts made against sweating Is that the owners of overcrowded shops are choking up back yards with extensions of their premises. He does not think sweating can ever be stopped as long as the public insist upon always buying at the cheapest possible price, irrespective of the condition of the workers. The most cheering feature ob- served by Sir John during his visit to the east end was the obvious good influence which education has exerted upon the ris- ing generation.

Our Placer County Supervisors have
let the contract for the completion of the

menls are being made constantly. Streets
are being improved and new residences
being built. Not a house of any kind is
vacant. The business houses are being
rebuilt in the burnt district, and there
are prospects of new facilities being pro-
vided to fight fire.
Considerable interest has been mani
tested lately mot all with approval) on
account of capitalist moving frame

sacramento Boys Who Have Lett Good
Homes to Become HOBBS.
1t seems that boys will learn only by
experience the trouble that comes from
trying to get out of difficulty by run
ming away from home.
A Sacramentan met three Sacramento
boys in Oakland yesterday morning who
frankly confessed that they had run away
from home to escape the result of some
| trouble they had the other day with
the men on the gravel train out near
Brighton.
Two Of the boys. who are known as
tat' ana DUTCH" respectively, have
been III similar scrapes before, and it is
! supposed they induced their companion,
a boy OF IL years of age, who lives on
Sixth street, near X, TO leave his home
and go with them, though he is under
stood TO have had no part in the difficulty
with the trainmen.
Inc Sacranentan referred TO tried to
advise this boy to return home, but he
was fearful OF consequences, and refused.
The three boys stated that they intended
to work their way northward, If possible,
into Oregon. How long it will take them
to find out that home is better than tramp
ing II is impossible to state but it is eX-
pected that their parents Will let them
learn by hard experience, which will
| probably be more etfectual than parental
correction.

Yesterday evening young man occu-
pying top buggy and accompanied by
couple of girls was driving rapidly
along L street, between Fourteenth and

scene and an electric car was delayed
