Illustrations of Great Beauty in Semi
Tropical Florida.
Among the Palmettos ON the Halifax
River, Florida, is one of the charming
scenes in No. 20 Of Glimpse.
The moss covered oaks of Florida are
illustrated in Glimpses. They resemble
the oaks Of Southern California, be-
tween this city and Santa Barbara.
There are parks Of moss covered oaks
both In Southern California and Florida.

Southern California. In Florida there
are forests OF this beautiful tree. A
scene is given in Glimpses of one Of the

The Indian river country is one OF the
centers OF the orange growing industries
in Florida. A view of the river and it's
tropical scenery is given in Glimpses !;
also an orange grove along the river.

ZEIGLER ASKS TIM e.

He Is Charged With Couductin . Suit
Club Lottery.
Demure and pretty, with long dark
lashes shading her downcast eyes, the
wife of Francis 0. Zsigler looked re.
markably innocent IS she faced Justice
Austin in the police court yes
terday afternoon. The young lady went
to the court with her accused husband,
and she seemed to take great interest in
him and everything trsnspifing in con-
nection with the charge upon which he
was arrested.
The husband had just been brought
up from San Diego to answer for the
conducting of an alleged lottery in con-
nection with fake tailoring establish
ment in this city. The scheme was the
operation OF q suit club, the payment
into the fund of which was to draw a
new suit OF clothing. By this means
Ieigler collected several hundred dol
lars and left the city.
He started in at San Diego in Q SINH.
lar manner and was arrested Just in
time to save many gullible San Degans.
Constable Richardson brought Zeigler
back.
When the case was called by Judge
Austin Zsigler walked to the railing and
asked continuance until today, to give
him an opportunity to more fully con-
slider his case before proceeding. The
time set for his pleading was today at
! 30 O'Clock. In the meantime he was
released on $500 bonds.

PAID LIKE A MAN.
MAX KAUFMAN FINED FOR SELL
ING LOTTERY TICKETS.
Judge Austin Tells Him He Believes
the Testimony Was Faiss-An
Attorney Makes
Bad Break.

Yesterday when Max kaufman fin
ishsd his testimony in the police court,
wherein he WAS charged with selling
lottery tickets, Judge Austin promptly
told him that he, the judge. Was of the
opinion that the testimony was unquali-
fedly false. kaufman swore that he
he had not sold lottery ticket in two
months.
The court found him guilty of having
sold lottery ticket last Sunday morn
ing, and in consequence of the evident
false swearing a fine Of $3.50 was i'm
posed upon him. Rather than spend
$50 days in jail, kaufman has paid the
fine.
1t developed that Kaufman sold lot.
terry ticket to q man named Nielsen.
Officer Kinney caught him almost in the
act. When the case was called yeHter-
day Msiesen appeared very retioent,
and was only made to tell the whole
story by the persistent questioning OF
Assistant District Attorney Rush.
Said Nielsen on the stand: THAT
man, and that man"-pointiDg to Kauf-
man and his attorney, Moye g. Norton
WANTED me to swear that found the
lottery ticket back of the Germania
hall. when personally bought it from
Kaufman"
This is one reason Judge Austin made
the fine go heavy. 1t was clearly shown
that an attempt had been made by the
defendant and his attorney to have the
witness swear falsely, in order to avoid
a conviction. AS kaufman is a married
man and In ill health, he was saved a
term of imprisonment as well Rs q
heavier fine.
kaufman has given the police much
trouble since the passage of the new
lottery ordinance. and he now has sew
eral cases pending on appeal in the
superior court.
The case of Nielsen for having lot
terry ticket in his possession. sold to him
by kaufman, was continued until to.
morrow.

Police COURT Gases.
In the police court yesterday after
noon the charge of petty larceny against
II. Spier was dismissed. Minnie
Farmer, the complaining witness. did
not desire to prosecute the case under
the circumstances, and the young man
escaped by paying the costs of suit.
When Patrick Garity ran up against
John Burkhart, Monday night, he met
his match and got his eyes blackeneu.
Getting the worst of the fight, Clarity
had Burkhart arrested for battery. The
evidence showed conclusively that Gar
ity, while full of ''tanglefoot," made
fight to Burkhert and went so far az to
assault him. For his trouble he got the
woret of the fight. The court dis
charged Burkhart.
N. b. McGraw. who created distur-
bance on Fret street, Monday night, by
overturning tamale wagon belonging
to Francisco Rameriz. was fined So for
disturbing the peace, the charge OF ma
licious mischief being dismissed.
A dark-eyed daughter OF sunny Nexi-
CO, named V. A. Martinez, was fined $40
or 10 days in jail for soliciting. She was
given until September Let in which to
pay the fine.
George Holby's tongue got him into

vile names to young Arabian woman.
She swore out a complaint for him. but
when the case was called, she said she
had concluded not to prosecute the fell

QUEER PLANTS USED FOR FOODS.
Little Known Vegetables and Edible In
sects of the Prairie.

Over at the department Of agriculture,
hidden away in an obscure corner. il
an odd sort Of exhibit of queer foods
eaten by out Of the way people There
is Loaf of bread made from the roasted
leaves Of plant allied to the century
plant. Another kind of bread is from 2
dough Of juniper berries. These are rel
ishcd by some tribes Of Indians. while
others manufacture cakes out of differ
ent kinds of bulbs.
The prairie Indians relish dish Of
wild turnips, which civilized people
would not be likely TO enjoy at all. In
the great American desert the screw
beans. which grow on mesquite bush
rs, are utilized for food. Soap berries
furnish an agreeable diet for some saw
lges in this country, while in Califor-
MIA the copper colored aborigines do not
disdain the seeds Of salt grass
Also in California the Digger Indians
collect pine nuts, which are the seeds Of
certain specifies of pine. sometimes called
"pinons, by kindling fires against the
trees, thus causing the nuts to fall out
of the cones. Al the same time sweet
gum oxudes from the bark. serving the
purpose of sugar. The seeds Of gourds
are consumed in the shape Of mush by
Indians in Arizona.
In addition to all these things the ex-
hihit referred to includes a 3ar ct pull
verified crickets which are eaten in that
form by TIE Indians of Oregon. They
are roasted, as are likewise grasshoppers
and even slugs. These delieacies are
cooked in pit, being arranged in alter
nate layers with hot stones. After be
ing thus prepared they are dried and
ground to powder. They are mixed with
pounded acorns or berries, the flour
made in this way being kneaded into
cakes and dried in the sun
The Assinihoines Use a kind of seed tc
stop bleeding at the nose. Among othel
curiou, things used for food ale acorns,
sunfloweT seeds, grape seeds, flowers OF
cattails, moss from the spruce fir tree
and the blossoms of wild clover. The
exhibit embraces IA number of models
representing grape seeds enormously en-
larged 1t is actually possible TO tell the
species of grape by the shape of the
seed. There is Il jar of red willow bark,
which Indians mix with tobacco tor the
sake of economy. This, however is only
one of thousand plants that are util-
lied in similar fashion. Washington

One is struck with the completeness
of the plant of the Moosehead Company.
On the line of the Somerset railway,
the freight cars can be switched to the
doors of the mill and the product loaded
upon cars with minimum of handling
When six or seven cars are filled six
days in every week, the advantage of
this is readily obs arvcd. The electric
lighting plant. the steam heating plant,
an extensive machine shop filled with
the most approved modern machinery
for working both wood and metals. in
Guiding a brass foundry, supposed to be
the only Que in operation in Somei set,
all contribute to this completeness and
to the great success of the Company
which has run its wheels without lct-up
during the adverse times.
