How is This for High =?

Recorder Lothrop visited Star dis
trict last week. From him we learn
that Bob Stewart had PANIED out %
pounds of ore from his mine-the
Gem. The result was six pounds and
a half of pare gold. Between 81, 500
and 50 600 from IS pounds of ore is
pretty good, even from Star district.
This rich ore comes from a small
streak in the ledge The main ledge
is between II and 20 inches thick and
will mill $500 per ton. There is Nc
doubt that Stewart and Harrington
have valuable property, and every
body is glad of it.

The Hen.

The following is a boys compost
ton on hens
Hens is curious animals - they
don't have no nose, nor teeth, nor no
ears, They swallow their whites
whole and chew it up in their crops
inside of EN-. The outside of hens is
generally put inter pillows and inter
feather busters. The inside of hen
is sometimes filed with marbles and
shirt buttons and such. A hen is
very much smaller than a good many
other animals, but they'll dig up more
cabbage plants than anything that
ain t hen. Hens are very useful to
lay eggs for plumpudding. Charley
Box eat SO much plrmpudding once
that it sent him into the collery,

they get scarf. I cut Uncle William S

make very fine spring chickens. y

SAN BERNARDINo's SHAME.

Sacramento had a festival recently.
For fancy's sake it was called ''carni-
val" But it was not a carnival in any
sense, that term applying to a season and
full exhibitions and recreation. But the
Sacramento festival was an industrial
one. II was full of sober meaning and
rich with liveliest interest. 1t was mag
nificent in its suggestiveness, and beauti-
ful in it's grace. color and brilliancy.
San Bernardino has just held carni-
val, or festival. But how very different
from that of Sacramento. At San Ber-
nardino the occasion WAS one of sport
and merriment. of contests of speed,
strength and agility, of exhibitions of
savage dances and ceremonials by In
dams. Perhaps to all this no sort of OBJ
lection should be made. If the people
wanted that order of fun and jollity. and
were willing to foot the bills, it was their
affair Holidays are of solid value when
well observed. Sport and recreation
serve good purposes when properly tenn
pered.
But San Bernardino introduced as main
features of her carnival series of prize
fights and also series of bull-fghts.
We omit mention of the former because
the latter absorbs attention. We have
carefully read the guarded accounts pub
lished of these bullfghts, and, at the
best, we are forced to the conclusion that
San Bernardino has covered herself with
shame They were not only prosecuted
in direct violation of the law OF the State,
but they appealed. according to the &C
counts in the Los Angeles papers, to tastes
that should not be cultivated. They

A good, healthy wholesomeneSs will
make even homely face attractive.
There are many reasons why women
should take care to be healthy. One
very strong reason is that beauty and
illness are very seldom found together
Illness-and especially the kind peculiar
to women-1nakes the complexion bad,
the eyes dull and sunken, the manner
listless and the intellect dull.
No woman in this condition can be at
tractive to her friends. Personal ap-
pearance counts for much, but comfort
amounts to even more. What's the good
of living if one cannot enjoy anything !?
If headaches and backaches and drag
ging WEAKNESS and pain accompany even
Slight fatigue2
If the system is constantly subjected
to a facilitating drain, where is the
energy to come from to make enjoyment
possible?
Personal comfort and a consideration
for the feelings of otheis are two of
the incentives to an effort to secure
health.
If the illness is in any way connected
with the purely feminine organism land
the chances are ten to one that it isl

Health under the law. It's fu notions are broad
and its powers almost unlimited. We trust
that the Sacramento board will fill the full
measure of its functions. and exercise its pow
ers to the furtherest limit This is no time for
halfway work, or for temporizing with peo-
pie whose ideas of sanitation are at va rance
with what the board knows to be necessary
things to be done. Take Chinatown, Tor in
stance. The alleys running through it are
foul, reeking with filth; horrible. Shiny and
sinking ground is beneath the low-grade
floors, and the quarter is charged from end to
end with the reeking odors of decaying vege-
table matter and the deposits of human waste.
The whole quarter is menace to the public
health and can breed more cholera and fever
in day than the Board OF Health can stamp
out in twelye-month, if once epidemic dis
ease seizes upon that filthy section OF the city.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

Between frightening people into condition
that renders them more susceptible to attack
by virulent disease, and urging them To take
those precautionary measures that sanitary
science suggests for keeping off disease there
is O broad distinction. What the RECORD
UNION is endeavoring TO do is to bring the
people TO a realization of danger, not to a con-
dition of fear, and thus to secure the adop-
ton OF such measures are necessary to en-
able cholera to be successfully fought if it
appears.
The Board OF Health OF San Francisco has
backbone. Finding public school TO be in a
most disgracefuly unsanitary condition, and
dangerous to the health and lives of the
neignborhood, it has condemned the school,
ordered it closed and has enforced Its order.
This illustrates the power Of Board of

were tame enough, and yet they involved
an accident" and risked lives and limbs.
They were not CORY, but the crowds man
ifested their displeasure that they were
not.
The bull-fight is remnant Of the
semi barbaric; it represents civilization
that Americans always speak of with
contempt. 1t invariably stands for a
decaying civilization and declining race.
The bull-fght is on q par with prize
fighting, but unlike that has not even the
one redeeming feature that it cultivates
physical vigor.
The bull-fight promoted by COM
munity speaks for that community
abroad badly. At the East San Ber-
nardino will be estimated on her bull
fight level. She will be ranked. and
rightly. as down to the Mexican grade,
| and as of the piece that speaks of Spanish
insensiDility and cruelty. 1t must have
| bad effect upon youth and cannot better
the morals OF age. We speak of San
Bernardino in all kindness, but shall ex-
pect its press to rise in defense and
abuse the RECoRD-UNIoN; but that will
not mend matters nor will 1t elevate bull
fighting above the level of rat-baiting,
dog-fghting and other forbidden brutal
tiles which appeal only to the baser ele-
ments in human nature.
If San Bernardino chooses to build her
reputation on bull-fghting basis, that
is her business. But unfortunately Cali
fornia's reputation is involved. The State
must share in the odium that will as
suredly attach to the scenes in the San
Bernardino bull ring. Let our southern
brethren await the verdict Of the older
East If it approves the bulI-fight we
shall be willing to be adjudged wrong.
But the great East will not approve. 1t
will condemn, and the great East will be
right. because bull-fghting is unlawful,
debssing. cruel, brutal, uncivilizing,
even when only simulated, and played
at" as some one has said was done at
San Bernardino.

Care of Cauaries.

It is easy to keep the canary in good
health. easier, in fact, than TO cure him
after he becomes sick. There would be
but few sick birds If they were properly
taken care OF. Many are neglected and
many are treated with mistaken kind
ness. Their food should be good. and
they should have all they want to eat.
The best seeds for them are German rape
or millet, and canary seed.
Cleanliness is all important. Be sure
of this. The cage should be cleaned
daily, and fresh seeds given each time,
with clean sand or gravel. Fresh water
should be given for drinking in cups
which are arranged in such a manner
that the bird cannot foul them. That for
bathing should be In shallow dish like
a saucer, and as soon as the bird has
bathed this dish should be removed. A
great many persons place such vessel of
water in the cage and oblige the bird to
use it to bathe and drink from. This
should never be done. The bird wants
Just as pure, clean water to drink as any
person does, and he will not keep in
health if obliged TO drink impure water.
A piece of cutie fish should be kept in
his cage.

DIVERSIFYING CROPS.
1DixOn Tribune.1

The farmers of Northern California are
learning that they can no longer place
their dependence on wheat as a staple
crop and in many sections are industri-
ously casting about for something to re-
place it. The Colusa farmers are expert
menting with sugar beets; in Yolo The
farmers are building creameries; in SUIT
ter they are planting flax, and so 1t goes
all along the line until we reach Solano.
Our farmers are lamenting the bad con-
dition of affairs as bitterly as their neigh
bors, but seem content TO plant another
crop of wheat and trust to Providence
that they may not be further behind
when it is harvested. The richest soil in
the State is in Solano County and will
grow to perfection any crop that Is
planted. 1t is unreasonable to suppose
that the same depression that affects cere-
ais extends to all products of the soil.
Our farmers should be investigating and
xperimenting with view OF diversity
ing crops. 1t is the only way that they
can extricate themselves from their pres
ent condition.

NATIVES YET STRANGERS.
fStockton Independent.l

Many who read the verbatim report of
Mrs. VogePs testimony in the Durrant
case must have been astOnished at that
part of it which said she was born in New
York. The papers describe her as speak
ing with German accent, in broken
English, etc, but the verbatim report
showed that her English. though not ex-
actly broken, was very crude and de-
fective. Mrs. Vogel is but one sample of
a class that is more numerous elsewhere
than in California, though even Stockton
has some specimens of those who were
born and reared in the United States, but
are, to all appearances, foreigners. This
class keeps its members to themselves
and as far as practicable from people of
other nationalities, and some mem bers of
even the third generation consider them
selves German. Irish, Italian, Norwegian,
etc. They not only speak the language
of their ancestors, but their knowledge
of English is sometimes so defective that
they have to have interpreters when ap-
pearing as witnesses in court. Where
they settle in agricultural colonies they
try to exclude English from their schools
and seek TO preserve unchanged habits,
customs and language OF their native
land.
1t was this class that caused the politi-
cal revolutions in Wisconsin and Illinois
and is now resisting a law in the latter
State requiring the American flag to be
flown from all school buildings, public
and private on certain occasions. and in
other places is struggling for the privi-
lege of carrying foreign flags in public
PROFESSIONS. Mrs. VogePs appearance
on the stand was an object lesson in favor
OF clinging 20 all laws that tend to make
the population ofthe United States homeo-
geneous instead of encouraging or aiding
by law the continuance of influences that
reIard the unity of the American people.
