HANG THE CoLoRs OUT.

Do not wait until tomorrow to get the
stars and stripes in order to hang on the
outer walls all OF next week on the occa-
sion of the visit of the old soldiers to the
Capital City. We will never have the
veterans as a body with US again. The
''old boys' are beginning to shuttle in
their gait. They speak more slowly, and
they can no longer step off I2O to the min
ute. Their locks, long since frosted by the
SHOWS of many winters, are growing
thinner, and their eyes are losing the ius-
ter of vigorous manhood Let US make
them welcome. heartily, wholly, enthusi-
astically. Whether they fought in South
ern fields, bled at Gettysburg, suffered in
the smoke of naval battle, burned with
fever in Southern swamps and prison
pens, or whether they stood guard only
on the Indian frontier and never met
their brethren as foes, or at home paced
weary rounds at posts of duty awaiting
| the call that never came-it is all the
/ same; they were our country's defenders.
/ The spirit and the soul of patriotism was
the same, and we should hang "Old
Glory" up with one hand while we ex-
tend the. other to the old veterans in cor
dial greeting, Sacramento should put on
! her gala attire. National colors should
adorn all fronts, rich or poor, and none
are so poor that they cannot put some
thing of red. white and blue to the fore
next Monday; none so rich that they
can afford to ignore the occasion or the
men in whose honor it is kept. Overhaul

CONCERNING Indtnnfans.

The RECORD UNION is desirous of COM
municating with those who can give it
information concerning men and women,
natives of the State of Indiana, or who
came to that State in early youth, who
became citizens of California and have
made notable impress upon the history
of California for good, in professional
life, art, letters, mechanics, agriculture,
arms, commerce and general trade, or as
publicists and officials. Names and
some data that will enable the full facts
to be searched out will be received with
thanks and due acknowledgment made.
AS indicating the character of men
whose history in California it is desired
to trace, it may be stated that Hon.
| Newton Booth, a Governor OF Califor-
MIA, General John +. Miller, soldier and
Senator, President Jordan of PaIo Alto.
A. Z. Hatch, the horticulturist, Charles
Crocker, merchant and railway builder,
were either natives OF Indiana or came
to that State in early youth, and from
that state TO California.

UNMANLY METHOD. :.

The Marysyille Democrat presumes
to find for the position of the RECORD
UNION on the hydraulic mining question
an ulterior motive. born of insincerity
and fathered by desire of somebody to
get even on someone. That is unmanIy,
unfair and as mean as it is false. II the
Democrat cannot debate public question
without assailing the motives of the dis
putants, it had better retire from the
business of considering weighty public
matters. 1t pretends to refute the state
ments of the RECoRD-UNIoN but it
amounts only to dogmatic assertion.
What this journal has stated it has
proved. 1t has cited in evidence no fact
not capable of demonstration as truth.
It has not assailed the motives of others,
while it has challenged judgments. 1t
has asserted and now reasserts that the
hydraulic debris flood about to be turned
loose upon the rivers and valleys has not
been sufficiently provided against; that
it cannot be done on the plans now con-
templated, if at all; that mines have gone
into operation behind barriers that are
insufficient, and that even if they were
ample to hold and retain, there is no as
surance nor even common guarantee
that they will be SO maintained and so

THE Tulare Register is unable to draw
any lessons of wisdom from the two
years OF hard times through which we
have passed. It says, 'As for us, give US
flush times all the time, and we will try
to be happy without learning so con-
founded many valuable lessons at the
expense of nerves and disposition" !"
Why the Register is hoggish. Even
sweets pail upon the appetite. Adversely
has as many lessons Tor our good as has
prosperity. Things are valued by reason
of contrasts. Without night we would
not know the joys of day; without knowl-
edge of the fact that there are such things
as pain and suffering, we would not ap-
preciate the delights of good health. Hard
times teach US that we can economic;
that we can, without material narrowing
of our pleasures, practice econ omy; that
we can be happy without debt; that we
can pay as we go, along many lines; that
we can and should consider our purse
when catering to our stomach; that there
are things we call luxuries and others
that rank as absolute necessities, and that
when the need demands we can do with
out the first that we may have the other,
and still be happy, without expense to
nerves or disposition.

Arnold discovered it. This was on Mon
day. She laid an egg every day after
that until the following Sunday, and
each egg was laid an hour later every
Gay. sunday the hen didn't lay, but at
Il o'clock next day she deposited an egg
as usual. AS If to make up for skipping
an egg on Sunday, Mondays egg was an
unusually large one, and was found to be
double-yOlked.
This remarkable hen laid an egg every
day, the one on Friday being deposited
III the nest at just o'clock III the alter
noon. The next day, Saturday, she
started in at o'clock in the morning
with her egg for that day, and on Sunday
laid none. The following Monday,
though, she dropped another very large
egg. This one, too, was found to have
two yolks, and WAS laid at o'clock.
And so she went on, depositing an egg in
| the nest an hour later each day until she
reached t O'clock in the afternoon, when
she would 60 back and begin at o'clock
in the morning, always taking a rest on
Sunday, and making up Tor it by laying
double-yolked egg on Monday. She
was so regular and prompt on the hour
that the Arnold family got to setting
their clock by her, but this was not until
one day, according to their clock, she laid
her egg for that day at ll:50 O'Clock, and
they thought she had made mistake,
!
being just ten minutes slow
The fame OF this hen soon spread
about that part OF the Genesee Valley,
and folks got TO coming miles to sec her,
but along about the end of May they
found out thar they didn't really know
what wonder that tramp hen was. 1t
was on w ednesday, and Arnold went
out at the hour an egg was due that day,
but there was no egg in the nest. The
hen was walloWing iaZlly in the dust near
by, but she laid no egg that day. There
was much disappointment over this, and
it was not until they found double
yolked egg in the nest the next day that
Arnold began to think. And then he got
an idea.
why said he, yesterday was May
30th, Decoration Day This hen, guess,
doesn't work holidays any more than she
| does SundaySH
"And that was just what she didn't.
| This was proved when the Fourth OF
July came round. No egg on that day,
but double-yolked egg next day Then
| right along she went again, an egg every
day except Sundays, double yoIk on
Mondays until Thanksgiving. No egg
| Thanksgiving. Double yolk day after,
! No egg Christmas, no egg New Years s
| Day, but double yolks after each one OF
these holidays. She's been going right
along ever since then, laying five ordi-
! nary eggs every week and double yolk
on Mondays, and, OF course, is expected
to take another day off on February 22d,
| Washington's Birthday.
| w bat will she do when holiday
| comes on Sunday? was asked Arnold the
| other day. Why, she'd lay an egg with
three yolks next day; that's what she'd
| do! And Pll bet on it,
| And nobody would bet against him"

EXERCISE FOR BOYS.
How Five Minutes n Day May BE
Profit ably spent at AthIetics.

How Five Minutes a Day May Be
Probably spent at Athletics.
Nevertheless, the fiye-minute exercise
is better than absolutely nothing, and
hence / am going TO make a suggestion
or two regarding 1t. If you know any
one who can tell you the "settlng-up"
drill practiced in the navy, get hlm to
show it to you, and then go through a
part or the whole Of that each night and
morning. II you cannot find out what
this is make up few simple movements
Tor yourself, for example:
/ Standing erect with heels and knees
together, move the body forward and
gradually try 10 touch your fingers to
the ground in front without bending
either knee. This is familiar exercise
to all Of you, but it is good one never
theless. This will do for the back and
front leg muscles. Bend forward twenty
times, and then take up the second eX-
ercse.
?. Standing with the legs part, swing
from side to side. bending either knee in
turn. and touching the floor first on the
right side then on the left side, being
careful, however, to sway only sidewise
and not forward and back. DO this
twenty times and your sides will ache.
3. Grasp one wrist with the other hand,
holding both across your chest. Then,
without letting the elbows go too far out
from the body, pull with all your strength
q steady, long pull, as if trying TO pull
your hands apart. Maintain this pull for
q second or tive. Then change abruptly,
and holding arms aud hands in same po-
stiou push with all your strength for the
same time. Again reverse and pull, and
so on forty times-if you can do it so long
and you will soon see how all arm and
chest muscles begin to ache.
f. Lie fiat on the floor on your stomach,
and keeping your body rigid. push your
self up with the arms as lar as possible.
OF course nothing must touch the floor
but the palms OF your hands and your
toes. Do this twenty times.-Harper' $

THE MURDER RECORD.
iStockton INDEPENDENT,


Stockton INDEPENDENT
Eight murders in fourteen days is the
record of San Francisco for the present
month. Eight human beings deprived
of life, some in the most revOiting man
ner, and they were not all bArroOm
brawls or among the rough element.
What shameful record tor the metropo-
lis OF the Pacific Coast. What a mockery
the civilization of the nineteenth century
seems when such crimes are committed
and so few murderers are put TO death.
1t almost makes Americans ashamed of
their elaborate system of justice when it
requires two, three and even ten years TO
send O murderer to his death, while more
than half OF them escape death even when
caught. Who is to blame? The unre-
tiecting will promptly answer, The
courts and the lawyers" but it would not
be the whole truth. Too much respect
for the letter of the law; the mere ma
chinery OF justice; ''the letter that kills"
allows many murderers to escape, but
iuries have their own share, and no small
share, of the blame. While courts often
grant new trials for what TO the layman
look like tritiing errors, juries go to the
other extreme, ignore law and evidence,
decide on their prejudices. or from even
worse motives, and members of such
iuries are often loud in their clamors be-
cause justice is not done.
WHAT DO THEY THINK?
Oakland Epquirer.l
Just one year ago the country was filled
with industrial Armies" marching from
many points and converging upon WASH
ington. The newspapers were giving
columns and even pages of space, while
the pulpit could not refrain from preach
ing about it. 1t seemed to be the com
bined judgment of the clergy that the
movement was profoundly significant"
"a signal not to be overlook - or some
thing of that sort. Now the year has gone
by; the business condition of the country
has not changed greatly, but there are no
more Industrial Armies. What do the
emotional press and pulpit think OF their
strong assertions OF twelve months ago
about the social condition of the country
and the temper OF the people as suggested
by the Industrials? We hope that it is
the homely old moral that there may be
great cry and very little wool in such
movements, and that this was emphati-
cally the case one year ago.
PROTECTION.
Oakland Times
Local merchants who own or rent
stores, pay taxes. contribute to charity,
assist in building up a town or city,
should be protected by strong laws and
ordinances against the takirs who carry
their stock OF goods in a cart or basket.
FULL AGE OF NAN.
Oakland Echoes.
You will be staggered to hear that q
doctor who has we'll Investigated the
question says that the full age OF man
ought never to be less than 266 years, and
that favorable circumstances ought to
bring him up to greater patriarchal
reckOnings. The dog attains maturity at
one and half years, and easily reaches
the age of sixteen years if properly used.
1t takes human being about twenty i've
years to attain the same state OF perfec-
ton as the eighteen n-months-old dog, and
at this rate II appears rather unfair that
men and women should not live for two,
three or more centuries, according to
