PEOPLE TALKED ABOUT.

Berry, lately the hangman in England, was
summoned recently for not paying a very
small debt. He explained that his lectures on
hanging had not proved attractive, that he had
unsuccessfully tried to get work as CONNER
clal traveller, and that none of his six children
could find employment on account of his
former calling.
Rudyard Kipling is not as prolific writer as
ne was some years ago. His success early in
life has made him conservative with his pen.
He pohshes his work with much more care
than he used to expend upon it, and regrets
that he cannot call back certain rather crude
productions that bear his name.
Henry Labouchere recently received letter
from Barcelona, Spain, written by merchant
In that city, who asks that, as an opportunity
of testlfying to his admiration of the public
career OF the member for Northampton, he may
be permitted to pay Mr.. Laboucheres expenses
at the next election.
There has been more lying by the reporters
OF some OF our contemporaries about the Gould
Castellane wedding than on any other recent
subject, incredible as it may seem.-New York

James Tyson is the richest man in Australia.
He commenced his working life as farm
laborer, and his wages were $3.50 year.

COMEDY IN COURT.

have seen comical scenes on the stage, but
never anything so funny as the late Corbett-
Mitchell trial was. At that time was playing
through the South with Brady's CATER Dark"
company, and we got to Florida just when the
trial came on. Corbett and Mitchell were then
with their managers, and Richard K. Fox, the
proprietor of the Police Gazette, invited the
whole of US to stay at the best hotel as his
guests. I never knew and appreciated jim
Corbett till got thrown with him so much
during those precious legal proceedings
The whole State was in a ferment over the
trial, and the best advocates in Florida were
represented on one side or the other. The
Attcrney-General led the prosecution and the
Governor presided. forget the name of the
man who defended Corbett, but, like all the
rest of them, he was highly educated gentle

the heat of the climate that made them too

1t seems there was no law against prize-fght-

SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

Have the legislators considered the advisa-
Dlllty OF passing an anti-cookbook law to take
It's place on the proud pinnacle of fame along
side the death-to-big-hats statute? Every mar
ried man knows what home-destroyer and
pulveriser is the modern cookbook. This
great broad land of ours, kissed by sunbeams
and bathed in ife-giving showers, is dotted
with homes ruined and desolated by the de-
vastating cookbook. Out of this grows much
OF the divorce crop, although we suspect it not.
An anti-cookbook law would naturally be a
little twin sister to the anti-big-hat statute
Fresno Republican.
One OF the great evils of the day is excessive
legislation. few simple laws, rigidly en-
forced, would be far better than an inchoate
mass OF crude legislation, more than half of
which is dead letter on the statute-books
One OF the reasons for the growing disrespect
for law is undoubtedly the large number OF
laws passed which are scarcely worthy OF re-
specifics Angeles Times.
The Senate has passed Mr.. Withington's
pure-food bill, and the Assembly should hasten
TO do likewise with Mr.. Keenes bill. The
measure is simple, just and honest one.
What man can possibly object to a law secur-
ing US unadulterated food and still claim that
he is in favor of fair dealing and common JUS
tice ?-Sacramento Record-Union.
1t will take Southern California ten years to
recover from the coyote scalp steal. The rab-
bits have increased so rapidly that they are
serious menace to farmers. During the past
year over 400 have been killed on one ranch
alone near Pasadena. In previous years the
coyotes did the killing. Pasadena News.
The San Francisco CALL says: There are
some men SO selfish that they will not help
themselves for fear of helping some one else"
Yes, we regret to say that we have just such
men in every community, and MERGED is not an
exception. Such men are in the way of the car
OF progress.-Merced Express
Perhaps it is not generally known, but it is
true, nevertheless, that the State pays ST, no
600 annually on its roads, and that this ex-
pense is mainly to keep bad roads in good re-
pair. 1t is well, however, that the taxpayers of
the State should be informed of such matters-
Los Angeles Herald.
The people of California seem to be waking
up to the fact that the State is in its infancy
and has future far greater than they ever
dreamed OF. When they begin to act on the
realization the development OF the State will be
very rapid.-Stockton Independent.
Oakland has taken hold of the new railroad
project in good earnest. 1t may well do so, for
it means great deal for that city, provided the
terminus should happen not to be in Alameda

All OF the people who want office cannot be
satisfied by the organization of new counties
The State is not large enough and there are too
many people to the square mile.-Santa Cruz

AROUND THE CORRIDORS.

Although Senator Seymour is said to be in a
way to succeed Warden Hale as the chief
executive of San Quentin, the latter gentleman
does not think any less of the Governor on ac-
count of the report that he will favor his pos
sible successor.
81 believe said Mr.. Hale to CALL reporter
in the Palace Hotel yesterday, nodding to Jacob
Neff, who sat next to him, 'tthat Governor Budd
will do just about what he thinks best in the
matter. In fact, think Budd has set out to be
very capable official, and means to do what
he thinks right. When he comes to make his
inspection OF the prison 1 will be there to re-
ceive him"
"You bet Hale WILL ventured Mr.. Neff; "and
they'll find things straight as string. Am L
right, Hale?"
~ hope so, Jake. have been Warden OF the
penitentiary four years, and find that the
essential feature is to understand your men and
treat them with humanity, which have tried
TO do. All those men are susceptible to at least
a little reformation, but think it would be a
good idea to separate the younger criminals
from the older ones. Say, for instance, send all
the prisoners under % to the Preston Reform
School, and the others to the State prisons.
Above all things, however, treat them as kindly
