HE ALWAYS TIPS" SERVANTS.
Because He Thinks It Smooths His Road
 in Life Wonderfully.

A traveller who was relating to a company of friends his experience in tipping or fleeing servants had been in many countries where he had only a smattering of the native language, says the Youths Companion. He had been dependent to a large extent upon tipping as means of making his jour neys in foreign lands comfortable, and in some cases even endurable.
 Gold is the universal language" he said, (which is understood the world over. Let people see the color of your money and you can travel almost any where without phrase book or Ollen- dorff
 Ut has the magic quality of convert ing into mind readers those whose services you require. It has shortened many journey for me, smoothed my pillow on land and sea and forced an appetite for many meal.
 Money sometimes" he added, ''can be too eloquent. The largest fee which I ever paid was to guide in the Chilian Andes.

THOMPSON RN ROUTE.
The Alleged Roscoe Train Rob-
 Der Taken Away.
Reasons for and Against the Theory That He Is the Man Who
 Is Wanted.

Kid Thompson, the supposed train robber, is on his way to Los Angeles. Southern Pacific Detectives Brecken- ridge and Smith left last night with him and "ColoneP' Hopper, alias Long. The latter is wanted not for participa- tion in the robbery but as witness in che case. It is not known in fact that Hopper knows anything about the rob bery, but the officers suppose that dur ing their intimacy Thompson may have told him something which will be of ad- vantage to the prosecution.
 Another name, by the way. has been found for Hopper. Among some letters Souud on him was one addressed to Thomas T1ppar and evidently meant for him. It was written by the ad- dressee's father, who lives at Dodge City, Kan, and who, from the tone of it, seems to be very respectable sort of person.
 There is considerable doubt as to Thompson's connection with the Roscoe robbery. In the first place the prisoner seems to lack the mental capacity to plan the crime and the nerve to carry it out. Still fools and towards have com nitted great crimes. but in Thomp sons favor is the fact that Etzler, to whom he is chiefly indebted for his arrest, is strongly suspected of being an all-round and sensational liar, and the California authorities are disposed to believe that his story, which procured his passage to Los Angeles was fairy tale. Against Thompson. through is the fact that he received from Los An geles $400 in Mexican money, which he is known to have exchanged in Phoenix for United States money.

mountains toward the end of a long days ride. He dashed water over my face, forced brandy down my throat and restored me to consciousness. I was grateful and gave him ten dollars. It was mistake that nearly cost me my life.
 ''The guide," the traveller continued. received with the fee an exaggerated idea of my wealth. He entered into a conspiracy to rob and murder me in the mountains. I was rescued by two Gillian gentlemen from fate which I had invited by my lavish and reckless tip"
 Have you ever found anyone" asked one of the travellers friends, ''who gave any real evidence of being grateful for your generosity in feel ing?"
 T can remember only one instance" was the response. "A colored waiter in hotel in Caracas was very bright and attentive.
 ''As I was to remain there a week, I gave him a large fee after the first meal, so as to secure good service. From that moment he was a most faithful attendantsnot only serving me intelligently at table, but even install ing himself as my interpreter, lackey and bodyguard.
 ''On my last morning in Caracas, as entered a carriage to drive to the rail way station, my colored friend placed small basket on the seat.
 '''You must take this,' he said, as a token of my gratitude. When you gave me money the day you arrived you did not know how much I needed it. My mother was i'll. We were very poor. With that money I bought medicine which she needed. In this basket are some of the best oranges raised in Ven ezuela."
 ''He was not trying to get a final tip. He ran off with tears in his eyes before l could thank him. He was grateful, and with real delicacy of feeling showed his appreciation of gener os- ity.'

THE SOLAR SYSTEM.
Vastness of Some of the Greater Stars of
 the Pleiades.

Vastness of Some of the Greater Stars of
 the Pleiades.
 If our sun were removed to the Pleiades it would hardly be visible in an opera glass with which nearly 100 stars can be seen in the cluster. Sixty or seventy Pleiades surpass our sun in brilliancy, Alcyon being 1000 times more brilliant, Electra 800 times and Maia nearly 400, says Longman's Maga- zine. Sirius itself takes a subordinate rank when compared with the five most brilliant members of group the real magnifcance of which we can thus in some degree apprehend. If we seek to know the dimensions, not of the individual stars, but of the cluster itself, we are met with many diff culties, but, on the assumption that it is approximately spherical in shape, we can calculate it's diameter to be over 10000, ,000,0 GOO miles, If we think of the dimensions of our solar system by themselves or in relation to terrestrial matter they appear stupendously enor- nous. Neptune, the most distant known member, has an orbit over B. 900, 1000, 900 miles across, but the solar system is to the Pleiades but Lilipu- tian to Brobdingnagian-is but a microbe to mountain-for sphere the size of the solar system would, if it were spherical and its diameter that of the orbit of Neptune, be relatively so minute that it could be contained more than 100000, ,OOC,OOO times in a sphere the size of the Pleiades; in other words, the limits of the Pleiades could contain 150 solar systems as many times over as there are miles be- tween Neptune and the sun. It must not be forgotten that though there are 2,30O stars in the cluster, yet with such dimensions for the entire group vast distances must separate the stars from one another. In fact, 2,30O spheres, each with a diameter of 3,OOO,OOO, 900 miles, could be contained in the limits assigned to the group, and assuming equal distribution of the stars in the group, each would be at the center of a sphere 3,OsO, ,OOO miles across, and therefore light journey of 1S7 days from it's nearest neighbor.

HELD TO THE GRAND JURY
A Dispute Between a Court and the
 Sheriff'S Office.

Sheriff'S Office.
 A peculiar situation grows out of a friction between the sheriff's office and Justice Johnstone court. When Por- tuguese negro, Jose Martinez, was ar rested on Wednesday night for an as- sault upon a little 4-year-old girl. A warrant was issued by Justice John- stone on complaint of Marshal Molloy, who delivered it at the sheriff's office.
 The justice expected the prisoner would be brought before him next day for arraignment. The day passed and yesterday morning he was informed that it had been decided at the sheriff g office to hold Martinez to the grand jury. The justice instituted an inquiry. the object and general nature of which was to find out what had become of the warrant and on what authority Mar tinez was being held. No satisfac- tory status of the case has been reached yet and the district attorney declined yesterday to participate in an adjustment of the matter. The posi- tion of the justice is that the prisoner has not been legally informed why he was arrested and is being illegally held since he was taken without warrant and that none has 1t had been served it would become regularly necessary to make a proper return. The position of the sheriff s office is that it will greatly simplify matters to let cog of the legal ma >chinery slip by bringing Martinez directly before the grand jury.

 His condition was pronounced paretic and he was brought to the city and taken to the Star lodging house. His Oregon relatives were notified ot his condition and friends are now on their way to Phoenix.

DANGERS OF PILGRIMS.
Some of Them That Are Encountered on
 Journeys to Mecca.

Some of Them That Are Encountered on
 Journeys to Mecca.
 The risks of a pilgrimage to Mecca may well make the most earnest Mus sulman hesitate to undertake that pious duty. Of the sixty-siX thousand pilgrims who have sailed from various Oriental ports for this sacred spot dur ing the last six years some twenty-two thousand have never returned, says the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. A few, it is thought, may possibly find their way back by other routes. Many, it is feared, are murdered by gangs of bad mashes, who are believed to travel regularly by the Jedda steamers, mark ing down pilgrims who are possessed of valuables and attacking them when favorable opportunity occurs.
 It is said, however, that by far the greater number fall by the wayside on the long tramp from Jedda to Mecca or Medina. So far as the sea voyage is concerned the return journey is for ob- vious reasons the more dangerous.
 The overland tramp to and from the sacred cities has the effect of lowering the vitality of the traveller, and he ar rives at Jedda in a state which predis- poses him to the attacks of epidemic diseases, engendered by the overcrowd- ing and unspeakable filth of the pill grim vessels.

A. ii. FOSTER s. co.

The most notable feature Of the begin
ming OF the present Legislature, WAS the Ill
ing Of pr. PoPe's petition. The petition
complains of the unfairness of The present
election law, and urges that it is contrary
to the constitution of the State aud also
contrary to the constitution of the United
States. More specifically it alleges that the
last election was conducted fraudulently, in
that the law was not complied with. Some
heavy charges are made against the supcrvi-
sors AMI manascrs of election at various
precincts. The petition ends with prayer
"that the General Assembly may by concur
rent resolution, entertain the contest of the
election Of Governor, aud determine the
same in accordance with the constitution,
and in such manner as has been or may be
prescribed by law. And your petition
stands ready to prove the matters and
things aforesaid by complaint and credible
testimony, and prays the powers of your
honorable bodies that the same may be had.
The petition is rather lengthy, containing as
it does, something over twelve hundred
words. The petition was placed in the
hands of committee. Meantime the elcc.
tion returns have been tabuated, John Gary
Evans declared elected and iuaugurated.
