He did not dine at expensive restaurants, but ate at the modest cafes, frequently paying only ten cents for meal.

taclxing the southern trade in a body this coming fall. They will carry splendid bargains in all lines, but will show especially pleasing samples of friendship and good will.
 The idea of a big Chicago excursion through the southern states originated with Maj Gen. fitzhugh Lee while attending the dedieatory exercises of the confederate monument in Chicago last Decoration day. The First infan- try, Illinois national guard, partici- pated in the ceremonies of that ocea- sion, and so won the heart of the old southern soldier that he asked the business men of the city if there was not some way in which the entire com mand could be taken through the south, so that the people of that section could see a northern regiment that could so far forget and forgive the past as to assist in dedieating monument to confederate soldiers.
 Tt would be great and grand les son for our people" said the general. Give us a chance to welcome to our homes these sons of our worthy foemen of thirty years ago, and their presence there will do more than anything else could do to bury forever the little ami mostly that still remains. Come and bring them with you and we will give you all a grand welcome to our cities and our homes. ;
 The same sentiments were spoken by the other southern soldiers in Chicago at that time, and the business men, seeing the benefit such a trip would be to the city in both a social and business way, readily accepted the invitation and at once began preparations for

This peculiarity appears on the slender roof of the violin. being a ripple, so to speak, in the flow of the grain, and according to fanciful players, the landmark of Almighty God. The in strument WAS lost for some nine years, but turned up finally in the drawing room of the old duke of Devonshire. It was only by this ripple in the grain that the violin could be identified. The Amati are supposed to have employed a fine log of Norway pine for their make, using it for number of instruments, and this ripple in the grain duly asserted itself in the finished articles.

JEWELIN THE SURF. W mt quie tlY about the inner precincts of the upper ten thousand in New York. dwelling upon the magnifeenee and cheapness of collection of gems which could be had for song. This is regular pro eedure on the part of the more exclu- sive traders At times five hundred thousand dollar parure will be thus hawked about for weeks. The idea is to sell the lot entire, as the trouble and danger are infinitely less.
 Meanwhile the attention of all the wealthy families had been drawn to the offers of the agent aforesaid. It seems that he demanded quarter of a million down and seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars in one years time. Of course, it became evident that the jewels so offered must be beauties, and much speculation was oc- casioned as to who could be the owner of them. For time Mrs. Ava Van derbilt was suspected, and then rumor veered around to Mrs. Goelet, the younger. Finally it became a well settled fact that the Stanford jewels were in the market.
 But no sooner was this fact estab- lished than series of ill-natured re- marks began to be made as to the right of the lady to dispose of the gems at all, in view of the circumstance that the government is now sulng the Stan ford estate and may oblige the return of even the articles of so personal na- ture as those sparklers. One woman offered nine hundred thousand dollars and accompanied her bid with such criticisms of Mrs. Stanford that the latter lady would have nothing to do with her or her money This bidder had the additional effrontery to re- quest the loan over night of one of the jewels and then wore it on the buckle of her bathing dress when in the surf. Such conduct disgnsted the ex-sen- ator's widow and she determined to visit Europe with her parure.

 rested for having aided her husband to escape from the police with cart in which her husband had some peddlers' commodities. A girl who had been to the mission at the cathedral was anx- ious to talk to the bishop. She spoke broken English and did not want to talk about anything in particular. She was simply curious. A young rough came in to get drink of water. He was inclined to say many irrelevant things and to be rather critical. He asked for a drink. The bishop cheer fully poured out q glass of water and handed it over. The young rough swigged it and then 10 his astonisn-

spent in observing him. The art of being poor is wonderfully illustrated in his case. He waits upon himself and even cooks himself meal He helps to clean up the room in which he lives. In every way he is proving himself a peculiar dignitary.
 The bishop rises every morning at five o'clock. He gets his own bath ready. There is no servant at his dis posal. He sleeps on a tick cot-not a bed. He slaves and then brushes his own clothes There is no man to do it for him. The third day of the bishops summing his breakfast consisted of two boiled eggs, loaf of bread and cup of coffee. His ordinary breakfast is rolls and coffee-that is the slum breakfast. He holds services in the cathedral mission early in the morning, when at times there is but a stray la- borer and a washerwoman to listen to his preaching. The later services are crowded.
 The bishop eats luncheon at two and has dinner at from six to eight They are plain meals. Many land lady would make money by boarding him, according to his present scale of living, at five dollars a week. How ever, that is not so important The way the bishop slums is the main thing.
 Bishop Potter has taken to going about the miserable streets of his East side stopping place. The people all know him. He walks up and down horrible pairs of stairs, asks the names of children and looks at the drainage of tenements. This latter circumstance has caused rumor to circulate that the bishop proposes to make things unpleasant for Trinity.
 ! The conspicuous thing in the bishop is his eagerness to have all the East siders know him. He can be seen by them at any time. They can be ush cred instantly into his presence and when the peculiar persons-for on the East side everybody looks peculiar-see the prelate he Is the first to open the conversation.

by the horns and this prowess still re- mains. He can lift very heavy weights with ease. He is fine boxer and could probably knock out many champion of the prize ring, but of course he is a bishop and would not be up to that sort of thing.
 The question naturally suggests itself: What do the millionaires of the bishops flock thiIs1 of these doings of his? It is well-lnown fact that near ly all the prominent Croesi of New York are under the prelate's spiritual tutelage. There are the Astors, the Vanderbilts, the Crugers, and the rest. Many of them are owners of the very property which the bishop will find so disgracefully unclean. That must make the situation rather embarrassing. However, whether they think well or i'll of the bishop on account of what he is doing, makes no difference. He will continue his course and turn the slums inside out.
 The brother prelates of Potter are likely to profit by the example he is setting. Already there are reports of similar step on the part of the bishop of Illinois (Chicago) and the bishop of Colorado. Quite diary of Dr. Pot ters experiencesis is being kept by him. self, and the full record of his progress will ultimately be published for the guidance of those who initiate him hereafter.
 The permanence of the results which the bishop will obtain is matter of conjecture. But it is an epoch in the history of the average slum denizen to talk to a prelate.

INJUNCTION SUIT BEGUN.
An Attempt to Restrain the
Payment of Salaries to
Deputies.
COURT DECISIONS DISAGREE.
The Law Has Already Been Declared
Both Constitutional and I'm
con Institutional.

FRESNO, CAL, Sept. 4.-Supervisor F.
F. Letcher, as private taxpayer of Fresno
County, to-day filed suit in the Superior
Court asking that an injunction be issued
restraining the County Auditor from pay
ing the salaries of two of the District At
torneys deputies. Mr.. Letcher wants to
test the constitutionality of the law allow
ing the two deputies.
The suit raises a very nice question in
constitutional law. 1t has been in court
several times before in one form or an
other, and not only have different lawyers
viewed it in different lights, but different
courts have held different opinions regard
ing it, and the decisions of the Supreme
Court itself are not harmonious.
Twice the Supreme Court sitting in bank
has decided the law as unconstitutional in
similar cases appealed from this county.
But later case involving the same point
was taken up from San Luis Obispo
County, and this time the law was de-
clared valid and constitutional. This latter
case, however, was heard and decided in
department and not in bank.
Two of this county's Superior Judges
Carter and Webb-have decided the law as
constitutional upon the last decision of the
Supreme Court.

NEW STOCKTON STEAMER,
RumorS That Another Trans
portation Line Is to Be
Established.
Ownership of the Vessel Now Under
Construction Still a Mys-
terry.

STOCKTON, CAL, Sept. IA new
steamer is being built in San Francisco fol-
use on the route between that city and
Stockton. 1t will be an exact counterpart
of the Captain Weber, which belongs to
the Union Transportation Company. The
work on the new vessel is we'll under way
now, and it will not be long before the
boat will be seen on the waters of Stockton
channel, direct evidence of the increase Of
business between this point and San Fran
cisco within the past few months.
There is much speculation along the
water front as to who is having the new
steamer built, some declaring that it is
being constructed by the Valley road.
while others declare that the capitalists
who are back of the Corral Hollow coal
road are back of scheme to establish a
new line of steamers between Stockton
and San Francisco.
At the Office of the California Navigation
and Improvement Company the employees
protested ignorance as to who had ordered
the sister steamer to the Captain Weber.
Some were confident that it was intended
for the Corral Hollow people, while others
knew nothing except the fact that such a
boat was being constructed. The theory
most generally accepted is that the vessel
is for the Union Transportation Company.
This line has been doing a steadily in
creasing business of late and will be in
need of new steamer to handle its freight
and passengers.

Strained.
Settlers Said to Be Aiming for the
Purpose Of Resisting Fore
closures.

OAKESDALE, WASH, Sept. 4.-The
situation between the mortgage companies
and the farmers is becoming strained and
it is feared serious trouble cannot be
avoided The Silver Federation is said to
be arming for the purpose of resisting
foreclosures.
The Mccormick Harvester Company has
caused the arrest of two farmers who twice
resisted execution on property and twice
forcibly took the property back.
After the execution was issued and the
property levied upon, an agent of the Nc
Cormick Company was visited by friend
and advised to let the matter drop. The
agent replied that they intended to keep
strictly within the bounds of the law and
had no fear of trouble To this his friend
replied substantially as follows:
"We don't care for law. 1t is merely a
means of oppression and robbery. We are
right and mightier than the law. We are
1900 strong in Whitman County, and in an
hours time can have 100 men all armed
with Winchesters ready to protect the
rights of our families. None Of that prop
erty will ever be allowed to be talk en- from
