MEMS SEIZURE.

Prot. Donath Is ConvinceJ That the HUI
man Race Is Detsriorating Physically.
London Daily News: Prof. Donath OF
Budapest has been examining the sta
tistios OF European armies with q view
to ascertain whether the human race
appears to be improving in physical
sense or dsteriorating. The conclusion
he arrives at Is that men are decidedly
Diet eriorating. Statistics from RueBia
he has been unable to obtain, but his
conclusion is supported in almost every
other case by those from tine other
countries where military service is COM
pulsory.
In the Austro. Hungarian army the
number of men rejscted as not coming
up to the regulation standard of height
has increased during the last ten years
by no less than rs per cent. The stand-
ard has been lowered in Germany, so
that comparison cannot fairly be made.
yet in spite OF this, in the same period,
the number Of men rejected "a too short
has risen from TO 10 per cent. Taking
period of Is years, the increase of men
below the proper height in France has
been from to Is per cent, and in Italy,
within 10 years, the same increase has
been from to no less than 20 per cent.
Switzerland alone Is TN exception to tn Q
rule.
Prof. Donath, it ia necessary to add,
takes tina figures as he finds them, and
has taken no steps to iind out whether,
with the great increase of the armed
forces of Europe. there has not been a
growing tendency to let men off if it
can possibly be- managed.

POMONA. Feb. 5.--Is being only few
weoks before the city election. at which
three members of the board of trustees,
the collector and treasurer, the assessor
and the marshal are to be chosen, the
people are beginning to discuss the main
Misrepresentation or high license. The
board now stauds to 2 in favor OF the
latter; but as the two holding over
(Messrs. Hubbard and Hutchinson) are
in favor of tho former, the Prohibition
lists will, even if they secure one of the
three to be elected. have the tables
turned. With the new voters here since
the election of two years ago and the in
hGenCe lett behind by the recent reviv-
ais. il Is not safe to predict the result.
The unprecedented fine rains of the
past ak weeks or more, followed by this
lovely, warm sunshine, will cause a

Men who love sport will reap thereirom no
small advantage, for they will gain bodily
health, better sight, better hearing, and lator
old age. Above ALL it is an excellent training
for war. In tie first place, such men, if re-
quired to make a trying march on bad roads
under arms, viii not break down; they will
stand the strain because they are accustomed
to go a hunting wild animals with arms in
their hands, Secondly, they will be able to
sleep on hard bed and keep good watch over
the post intrustcd to them.
In an advance against an enemy they will be
competent both to attack and to obey their
ders; Tor 1t is thus that wild animals are taken.
If they are in the van they will stick to their
posts, Tor they viii have learned stcadfastness;
and in a out of the enemy they will be able,
being used to such things, to press him over
every kind of ground If their own side be
beaten, they will be able to save themselves
and others without dishonor i'll marshy, pre-
cipitous, or otherwise dangerous ground, for
from experience they will be qui!e at home
in it.
Men like these even whom the greater part
OF their army has been routed. have rallied
and fought against the victorious enemy when
astray in difficult ground. and have beaten
them by their courage and their endurance

ELsINoRE, Feb. 5.-Away down to-
wards the southeastern corner of River
side county. beautifully situated on the
shores OF lake of the same name, is
the picturesque little town of Elsinore.
Although designated as a city upon
much of the advertising matter sent out
from this place, Elsinore properly
speaking has no real claims to such i'm
portance, and il is very doubtful il the
town itself would be ons-half as charm
ing a resort as it now lie il the streets
were lined with wagons and trucks bur-
rying to and fro with their never .ceas-
ing reminder of tho very business that
the tired tradesman and weary tourist
come here to avoid, Elsinore, however,
has Tar greater claims to importance than
can possibly exist in mere numbers.
The lake itself is an object of beauty
and intereat to all visitors. 1t is 7
miles long by 21a wide, and is by far the
largest body of frssh water in Southern
California. Around the lake an excel
lent boulevard liz miles in length has
been made, which ia greatly enjoyed by
wheelmen and others. The waters OF
Lake Elsinore are strongly impregnsted
with sulphur and other minerals of
great medicinal properties. Little, il
any. fish abound. but wild game, such
as ducks. brant, etc., are very plentiful.
Within 200 yards of the shore and inside
the limits of the town there are over 30
hot sulphur springs, and these probably
more than any other one feature have
helped to make the resort famous.
IL xf t.kn
atism and various diseases of the skin
and blood come here broken in health
and spirits, and 60 away cured. The
may be said to bs unsurpassed.
There are two first-class hotels in e.
sinore, viz: the Now Lakeview and the
Hot Springs hotel. Both have very ex-
cellent bath houses in connection with
the hotels.
The new Lakeview hotel and Hot
Springs resort,as it lie called, was burned
down about eight months ago, but has
just been rebuilt. and was opened on the
10Th ultimo with grand dinner and
ball, given to officers of the Santa Fs
railway and about 200 others. The cost
OF the new house complete Is about
$4,000. 1t is under the management OF
MessrH. Roger & TrapheRen. DIR. Roger
is the physician in charge.
The Hot Springs hotel is owned by
E. u. Bnndy and bears very excellent
reputation amongst tourist and others.

CARELESS AND UNSKlllED.
Report of the Board About the Cruiser
Columbla's Injury.

wAsHINGToN, Aug. 7.-Acting secre-
tary McAdoo made public today the re-
port of the board, consisting of Commo-
dore Selfridge, constructor Bowles and
chief engineer Farmer, appointed to ex-
anime the cruiser Columbia as to dam
ages she received when docked at South
ampton. The. report confirms the cable
report OF the Associated Press, and the
board says that the docking "was gener-
ally careless and unskilled, as shown by
an entire neglect of the most elementary
precautions to secure the uniform sup
port of the keel of the ship. The imme-
date cause of the dents and bruises TO
the bottom plating was that the Keel
blocks were not properly aligned and
did not bear equally and that each block
was not squared off to give support to
the fiat and lower surface OF the keel.
On the contrary, the keel blocks had been
repeatedly used and by bar keel vessels so
that they were crushed down in the CEN
ter TO such an extent that they showed
no bearing whatever on the fiat part OF
the keel and bore on the outer edges on
the bottom plating
They recommended certain repairs, such
as new units to be driven, leaky butts
and seams to be caulked and reriveted,
bent bracket frames TO be Strengthened
and reriveted and cracked cement to be
replaced. This will cost 1925, and require
II days. The board also recommends
that SIX new fire room stanchions be
placed in the ship when opportunity
offers and she is afioat. These will cost
S475 and require eight days The boar d
mentions with minute detail } the differ
ent parts of the ship which were injured
in the docking.

JUST BARELY POSSIBLE.
Settlers May be Punished for Killing
Indians at Jacksons Hole.

WASHINGTON, Aug 1z---In spite of re-
ports TO the CO ntrary il may be definite
w stated that the Indian bureau as yet
has taken no steps whatever looking
toward the punishment of the Jackson's
Hole settlers for the killing OF the Ban
mock Indians. The bureau has sent no
communications to the department OF
justice. 1t is probable, however, that
steps will be taken almost Immediately
to bring those engaged in the killing to
justice.
The delay has been caused by the fact
that no law was known under which the
United States courts could take cogniz-
ance of the matter and the further state
ment being made it is regarded as practi-
aaiiy impossible to secure CONVICTION
In the Wyoming State courts, owing 10
she strong feeling against the Indians.
Today, however, Is was discovered that
the treaty OF July 3, 1868, between the
United States and the Bannocks and
6hoshone Indians had q provision direct
~ applicable to the present case, under
which the machinery OF the United
States courts might be invoked 10 deter
mine judicially the culpabiljty of the set
tiers.
The second paragraph OF the first arti-
Gle Of the treaty reads as follows; tss ,,,os
among other people subject to the
authority of the United States, shall com
NIT any wrong upon the persons or
property OF the Indians, the United
States will, upon proof made TO the
agent and forwarded to the commissioner
OF indian affairs at Washington, proceed
at once to cause the offenders to be ar
rested and punished according to the
laws OF the United States and also reim-
burse the injured persons for the loss
sustained.
Mhile the bureau has not yet decided
ON its course of action, 1t is probable
that arrests will be made by United
States marshals under the provisions OF
the treaty. The persons arrested can
then use writs of habeas corpus, thus
bringing the validity OF the treaty and
the whole status Of the Indians into
court.

LOTS OF Money
Invested in the Street Cars
of this City.

The Union Railroad Company has 200
close cars and about 100 open ones. These
cars cost on an average nearly sooVo
apiece as they stand. This means, in
round numbers, nearly 5000, 900 OF roll
ing stock. OF course, some cars cost
more than others. Take the Broad street
cars, for instance. They cost S4300 each.
Even the little Dyer avenue box cars cost
a snug sum, the woodwork being worth
about $500 and the electrical apparatus
costing about $500 The average electri-
cal apparatus costs about 5000 The ex-
cess OF cost of close cars over open cars
is only 800 or $500, but that amounts
to something when the 200 cars are con-
sidered. Take it all in all the Union road
is one of the best and most costly equip
ped in the country.
