| am feeling u little lonely since my
friend, Charley Smith, left for Oregon,
although / still have company with
Oregon Beauty. ! took part in the
grand parade through the city yester-
day to the reception of Rex Felix, the
king of carnivals, / assure you she
was as much of an attraction as any
one rig.
The King was received with regal
honors upon his entrance TO the. city
yesterday morRing. The royal barge
transferred the king and court from
the good ship Argus in mid-stream to
the Clay street wharf where landing
was made. There the royal army
received the king and went rushing up
Market street and out to the park,
he travelling bars of music were
sought upon the towers and minarets
of the City Palms, and there like so
many Tyres sang out to the subjects of
his royal majesty that he would never
cease to love them.
1t was 9:45 O'Clock when the tug
Fearless steamed out from the wharf
with party of ladies and gentlemen
who had been invited to participate in
Welcoming his Majesty. As the Fear
less steamed toward the Golden Gate,
she was saluted 10y the dipping of
numerous flags and the sound Of hun
dreds ef whistles.
Uncle George, as they always call
him, and the only name have heard,
delivered the address of welcome. He
spoke as follows:
"Your Majesty, the pleasant duty
has been assigned to me to bid you
welcome. 1t is the first time since the
discovery of this country Dan 0'Con-
nell that there has been king among
us. We have here the most beautiful
land upon which the sun ever shone,
the fairest women ever placed on earth
to delight the hearts of men, IL land OF
sunshine, fruit and flowers. For three
days you will revel with all your court.
The laws will all your merry company
fullest license. May God guide you
and your followers now and forever.
Amen.
As the vessel approached the crowd
ed wharves, again the whistles sounded
bells rung, flags dipped and cries Of
Long Live the Kingp' arose from the
multitude. AT the end Of the wharf
was cannon which belched forth the
royal salute as the imperial barge
passed. The band once more struck
up 'If Ever / Cease to Love- AT the
landing the royal body guard was
awaiting the king. 1t presented arms
and cheered him ronndly as he landed
and the thousands of loyal subjects
there assembled, j6ined in the htlzzas
as they saw the merry monarch, Rex,
accompanied by his jester, mount a
six horse dOg-cart.
The royal court took seats in car
riages, the advance was sounded and
the march to the City Of Palms was
Legun. The column was as follows:

From here the line OF march to the
park was crowded with tens of thous-
ands OF spectators. Rex was first to
be arrayed all over red except in the
crown, even the nose was red. The
master Of ceremonies looked like the
devil and acted the part. His mask
was formed on mold between the
faces Of dog and q baboon. In fact,
the whole mob were dressed in red, +,
aud looked like wild men of The w0ods.
The ceremonial ef presenting the
keys Of the city was short and impress
siye. On yellow, carle-seated throne,
placed between the governor and
mayor sat Rex Felix in all the magni-
ficence Of his oriental splendor. The
nose of his mask had been painted a
bright red TO indicate the cnnvivial
spirit Of his majesty.
On small silken pillow lay the
three golden keys to the city which
were presented to the king by Miss
Juliet Mitchell.
The fair is still the drawing card.
The city is very much stirred up over
the industrial army. i was ut Oak
land this evening when an army Of
800 landed from the city. They joined
an army al Oakland which makes 1000
strong. There were $50 women with
them, all in line keeping step 10 the
drums. There was band Of 800 left
a few days ago, which Is helping 10

EDWARD Grieg, In the January Century.l
The influence which Schumsnn's art has
exercised and is exercising In modern
music cannot be overestimated. In con-
junction with Chopin and Liszt, he domi-
mates at this time the whole literature of
tho piano while the plano compositions of
his great contemporary Mendelssohn, which
were once exalted at Schumann's expense,
would seem to be vanishing from the con-
cert program. In conjunction with his
predecessor Franz Schubert, and in Q
higher degree than any contemporary
not even Robert Franz excepted, he psr-
vsdes the literature of the musical "ro-
NANCE" while here Aendelssohu is rele-
gated sd scts. What q strange retribution

had to balance their accounts. But Il has,
according to my opinion, in its demand
for Justice identified itself 30 completely
with Schumsnn and bis cause that Men,
delssohn had been unfairly treated or dl.
rectly wronged. This 10 true, however,
only a. regards the above mentioned genres,
the piano and the musical romance. In
orchestral compositions Aendelssohu still
maintains his position, while Schumann
has taken . place at his side as his equal
say his equal, for surely no signiacsnce
can be attached to the circumstance that q
certain part of the youoger generation

MORE FRkRDOM IN THK SOUTH.
The statement that the South Is fast
getting rid of the credit system ia good
newe, for that system has done more
harm to the South than can be told. An
extensive inquiry has been made among
southern bankers and factors and the
answers show that the whole economic
policy of southern farm interests Ia mn.
dergoing change, and the credit system
is being superseded by cash basis. The
forced upon farmers the necessity of rails
ing their own foodstuffs, and added to
this was the decision of bankers and fac
tors to advance much less money on cot
ton than formerly. The result has been
that for the time being, while
passing from the credit system with Its
liberal buying to cash system requiring
the closest economy, there has been less
trade with farmers, and hence decreased
volume Of general business in the South.
Bnt this has brought about a more solid
condition of the business dependent upon
farm trade throughout the South than
there has been for many years. Merchants
are carrying small stocks and buying only
as needed; farmers are paying off their
debts to such an extent that, without ex-
ception, the letters from bankers say that
the farmers are less In debt than for
years.
Good often comes out of what appears
to be evil, and 1t looks as If agriculture
in the South would come out of the hard
times in good shape. The South is well
rid of one kind of slavery. 1t will profit
much by the abolition of the slavery of the
credit system.

While the author was sailing down the

"The torch was barely extiuguished
when Q deep snore, Ike a psal of distant
thunder, issued from the captains throat
and he rolled heavily upon his back, near
ly forcing me through the bark wall by
the unexpected change of position. To
remonstrate was useless; the furies could
not have awakened him.

plastron collar of fur. The garment is
lined with white sieilienne, but If made of
thinner stuff 1t will require wsdding. In
cutting from heavy material care is neoes-
gary with the fulness at the skirt, because
the material does not drape we'll and would
look stiff. The plastron collar may be
separate or sewed to the coat, but should
be of light fur with deep cuffs of the same
on the sleeves. The muf should match
and the edging on the skirt be of . oon-
trasting fur. In the same picture there is
Q stylish winter visiting drssa, fur trimmed
In . novel pattern. The dress material 10
. grayish Dream cloth for the skirt and
either ruby, red or apple-ereen velvet for
the bodice, and the trimming may be eth
or bear fur or ostrich feather galoen,
though the frst named in each case is pre-
ferable. The skirt garniturs comes around
the bottom with curved points running up
ct intervals, a. shown, and the bodice
trimming corresponds. The wide slsevea

choose brown fer their street dress should
know that russet shoes, laced to above the
ankles, are to be worn AL winter with such.
