LENTEN RESOLUTIONS.
Good Intentions for the Coming
Forty Days.
Society Buds to Have Their Usual Fads,
and Society Beaux to Be thereby
Spared the Tax for Candy and
FIowers-bome Timely
Lenten Thoughts.


Lent is almost here, and soon our society
folks Will be arrsyed in sackcloth and ashes,
unexpectedly speaking. Each fair damsel
will eschew the use of candy or the purchase
of flowers, and resolve to devote her life to the
help of others. In fact, the Lenten season will
bring its usual load of the bricks with which
hell is said to be paved. The forty days soon
pass, and then the good intentions be laid on
the shelf until Lent once more rolls around
All, well, after ALL perhaps it is better that
mankind should have one spell of good be-
havior during the year, even if the effects are
not always lasting
But, Lent or no Lent we must keep on writ
ing letters. That is one thing which is never
sworn off on. And ii we must write, why, of
course, we must have paper. And that is The
meat in the cocoanut of our discourse. Paper
OF all kinds, makes and qualities-paper
in the newest aud most fancy colors. Paper
embossed with initials or monogrsms in tints,
or in gold and silver broRzes. Society paper!
Mourning paper! In fact, all kinds and descrip-
tions of stationary, and all best and most fash
ionable makes
Now, who has all this? you say. Why, Ger
nan, OF course, at his store, at No. 800 South
Spring street. There you Will find the best
stock, the finest workmanship and the mo 1t
courteous treatment, and, as en- inducement,
you can have your initials or monograms up
on free of extra cost.

OUR esteemed evening contemporary,
the Express, deprecates our stolid reti-
cence about the freedom of Democratic
officials from malfesssnce since the con-
viction of Stewart. While it does not
follow that Stewart was Democrat be-
cause be was Watson's deputy, yet the
chairman of the Democratic city COM
mittee promptly paid over to the treas
ury his share of the amount OF Stewards
pilfering. We have yet to hear from
the fugacious Ell Hammond, nor has
the county seen the color of the coin
which this enterprlsing and honest tax
collector of the Expresses party persua-
sion decamped with.

In RESPONSE to offers from eastern
scientific institutions for specimens OF
the great aerolite that recently fell in
Nevada, parties have started out from
Keller to trace out the spot where the
meteor fell. They believe that they will
find it somewhere in the vicinity of
Deaths valley, and they will make their
explorations in that direction. Although
to the people Of Keller it looked as if
the aerolite came in contact with the
earth st that point, it may have kept on
in its fight for hundreds of miles before
it found Judgment in the ground. At
Candelaria, for instance, it looked to
the people there as if it fell forty-fivs
miles east of that old mining camp.

OREGON has abandoned all hope OF
being able to be represented at the mid
winter fair. The sum of $l5,0 900 already
collected, being wholly insufficient for
that purpose, will be returned to the
donors and all further proceedings
gtopped at once. Portland contributed
nearly the whole of the above amount,
the interior towns refusing to contribute
anything towards helping San Francisco.
1t is very mistaken policy on the part
of our sister state.

route would be of great advantage to
the people, and would doubtless prove a
good investment. But we hardly be-

Los Angeles. will sit quiescent and see
the franchises alluded to gobbled up by
eastern capitalists.

The importance of news coming over
the wires in these days is sufficiently
attested by the fact that the Monarch
of the Dsilies devotes three-fourths of
its columns to the unsuccessful attempt,
in Chicago. to poison a dog with NOR

with butter at so cents per roll would
not have occupied half that space.
Still, doctors and doctrinaires will dis
agree as to methods.
