HERE AND THERE

There was a Curious lot of unconscious
sarcasm perpstrated by bidder for city
bonds before the council some little time
ago.
He was Chicago man, and naturally
always had more or less coin, and had
acquired the habit of sticking his hand
in his pocket and iingling the dollars as
he talked. He got up and made little
speech som sthins like this:
Mr.. President, (here ]e bowed to
Colonel Teed, his right hand slid into his
pocket and chink, chink, a lot of gold
and silver coins rattled). and gentlemen
of the city council. chink)-I
only arrived from Chicago today-(ohink,
chink, went the money)-and 1 haven t
had time to see any of the councilmen
vet-(chiLk, chink, ohink, and Mr.. Saw
age began to look indignant)-so | would
like to have this matter of bidding for
the bonds postponed until tomorrow
(chink. chink, chink. chink)-so that |
can inform,myself OF the exact situation,
-(chink, chink. chink. chink, chink.
and the musical tintinna bulation of hon
est money that followed was overwhelm-
ing.
The matter was postponed.

were as plenty outside the hotel as
bacon was inside. thought LIE Bon Dieu
would pardon him if he shot enough for
his Sunday dinner. So he borrowed q
gun and struck out across lots.
He knocked over few birds when he
was approached by rarson, clad in what
in Southern California might be termed
full canonicals.
"Young man." said the parson, "are
not you ashamed of yourself to desecrate
the Lords day by shooting? You look
intelligent" = (Charlle nodded) but
think of the terrible example you set.
Il am going over to that school house
yonder to preach; let me entreat of you
to come" and he kept on in this strain.
Now Charlie is noted for his taciturn-
ity, and he listened for half an hour to
the talk. At last he threw his gun over
his shoulder and remarked to the parson :
We'll, are you going to preach in that
school bouse?"
"Yes." was the answer.
''WeIl, is that any business of mine?"
said Charles, and he tramped on. The
parson may be standing there yet seek
ing 1or an answer to that plain question.

Col. Fred Truitt, the manager of the

The knowing ones in the crowd said

now could you find out how much fish

Easy enough, said Trui.t. 'it had

SUSAN'S LAST DITCH

There never was a man or women vet
but who was bound to rise progress, and
make a mark in the world, provided
the yeast principle was in their
souls. 1t has been demonstrated that even
the chains of poverty cannot keep such a
one down, and what is more severe test
is the breaking of the manacles of tradI-
tion. 1t is with the latter that woman
has had her most severe struggle. Tradi-
tionally woman has held an inferior posi-
tion as compared with man either men
tally, socially or physically.
In the recent advances made by woman
IN gaining recognition as a competitor of
man it has never been a question of talent
or SKILL but go which way she would she
came face to face with the stone wall of
Tradition.
Perhaps one of the best known leaders
Of the advanced woman ID Susan b. An
thony. Recently she has taken a posi-
tion which smashes to flinders all that is
traditional regarding woman. The New
York World, though the comment may
b little severe, says:
Susan b. Anthony has assumed POSI-
tion that is truly advanced. At a large
gathering of equal-suffrage women in
Topeka, Kan, she drafted and had pass
cd a resolution setting forth that, as the
men of Kansas had refused to permit the
women to vote, it was the duty of every
sslf-respecting woman in the state to fold
her hands and refuse to help any moral
religious or charitable reform until the
adjective "male" is strlcken from the
constitution.
This resolution. which received a unan-
imous vote, will do more, if carried ont
con scientiously, than anything woman
has yet done to liberate her sex from the
irksome duties that appertain tu a moral
religious or charitable life. Susan. to put
it plainly, has taken the suffrage bull by
the horns. When a woman puts her foot

down and says distinctly that II she can
not have he- own way then she will not
bother about such things as moral, relig-
ious or charitable obligations. you may
know, as the old saying is, that she
doesn't care whether school keeps or not.
Viewed calmly, this is straight cut to
a hundred thousand resolute Kansas wo-
men with their hands folded. stubborhly
refusing to do unto others as they would
be done by and dlsmissing all interest in
their i'm m ortal souls to ''get square"
with man, is one to make the saints
squirm and the devil chuckle.
Susan B. Anthony is tireless fighter,
and she appears to have taken to the last
ditch

A Mr.. Bell OF Toronto, Ont, has gained
.ame in night. He introduced reso-
luton in the Toronto public school
board demanding the names of all female
teachers who have been riding bicycles in
''male attire, commonly called bloom
ers." The object of the resolution was
that the offending teachers might be rep
rimanded. Mr.. Bell is evidently not a
man of tact else he never would have
said: The bloomer costume will
never be worn by women generally, be.
cause it must be worn by well-formed
woman, and three.fourths of the women of
the country are not well formed and
will not care to wear dress showing
this to be the case.' This statement was
received by such a ''roar" from the
teachers ana their friends that Mr.. Bells
resolution was overwhelmingly defeated.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
ative; etfectually cleansing the system
dispelling colds, headaches and fecers
and permanently curing constipation:
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
,ling them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance. :,
Syrup of Figs is for sale by al drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactrred by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup OF Figs,
and being well informed, you Will not

SURPRISING THE NEWS.

The main purpose of a newspaper Is to publish the news, and it grieves an editors soul to suppress matters that are of public interest. Because & prominent citizen or citizens does something that brings him or her into notice there is no reason why they should not be entitled to all the fame that cold type can give them. That is, if it is not a private affair. There are some things too sacred for publi- cation, and with these @ newspaper has no right to meddle.
 But 1t makes US sad to listen eter- nally to the appeals of people who don't want anything said in the paper, al though at the same time the matter. of what ever nature it is, may be the com mon property of the gossips and scand- sImoRgers. There may be those who differ with us. but we believe the mis- sion of the news depal tment of a newspaper is to hold the mirror up to Nature. The errors and virtues of mankind are alike depicted there, as they are in the Good Book, and a newspaper can always keep within the bounds of propriety aud common de- cency.
 If scarlet woman or town bum comes within the pale of the law, no mercy is shown them. They are held ID to the sco-n or ridicule of the pub lic. Bat let 8 prominent citizen transgress, and the newspaper, (the country newspaper especially always with the threat of loss of patronage hanging over its head must suppress tl.- matter. This condition of affairs makes US sad; also tired. Faosto8 0snLOcgGt

SAN DIEGO IS beautiful city and has grand future. When it will occur is the only question. Like the beautiful girl that was expected to marry rich, it is all in her own hands. Her fate she has the full deciding of. To do nothing accomplishes nothing. The girl with the grand prospects re- ferred to, who declined all offers and allowed years to roll by, while fer sisters married well, finally became an old maid with all its troubles and cares. Procrastination being the thief of time, and with San Diego having such bright prospects now, hence no time sh2rli be lost by its citizens in building tine direct east line of railroad to Yuma, and the great irrigation systems it needs. 1t will then boom. .-S D.
