There is some excitement in Georgia
over the discovery that all the dictionary
makers have left the word "frazzle' out
in the cold. Its word in the commonest
daily use not only in that state but in
other Southern states and has been so
used for generations. ftHis trousers
were frazzled;" "He began as Big
Mike, but it didn't take long to frazzle
out;' He wore my patience to a
frazzle"-theseF are sayings understanded
of the people down in Dixie. The eau
gusta Chronicle" is amazed at the ig-
norance of the photographers, and an
nounces its intention, to nail 'ffrazzle"

A man whose name is to be kept a
secret has offered to build a magnificent
hall for the University of New York,
and Boston woman, who is also to re-
main unknown, will give $3.50, 600 for an
emergency hospital in memory of her
husband, provided the public will add
$50, 900 as guarantee that the gift will
be properly looked after. Deeds of
liberality of this kind have been unusual

Chinese national pride. The first was
originally established by the Tartar
conquerors as a badge of slavery, but has
been adopted as national custom, and
both are now held with religious fidelity
by the people. 1t will take more than
an imperial edict to do away with them ;
but the very fact that there is a move
ment for their abolition is an encourag
ing sign of the times.

Senator Hill says he would exterminate
the greenbacks and by international
bimetalism would lift the silver dollar
to a world wide parity with the gold
dollar. While he sticks to that platform
he can never become the Presidential
candidate of the Illinois free coinage
Democrats, and this deliverance of his
will probably bring to an end all invita-
tions to him to go out there and speak at
the free silver convention.

NEW PUBLICATIONS.

With The Procession. A Novel, by
Henry B. Fuller, author of "The Cliff
Dwellers' etc, is not book to be over
looked among studies of the day and re-
fections upon social progress from the
old to the new, albeit the picture is made
by storytelling and dialogue rather than
by didactic statement. The author is
original both in inference and in literary
manner. There is an actual WEAKNESS
in following the steps by which an old
time, simple home becomes center of
fashion; and it is the irony of fate that
Jane, loyal soul and only member of
the family approaching an understanding
or sympathy with her father, should be
the means of inaugurating fateful chang
es. The story is laid in Chicago and the
business history of money making firm
is clearly outlined. The text contains
some really remarkable descriptions both
of people and of things and occasionally
cuts directly to the core with a trenchant
stroke. Episodes here and there are light
ed up by humorous conception and the
primitive happenings of early days are
we'll reproduced. HEliza Marshall took
this risk quite willingly; the idea of buy
ing her jelly ready-made never crossed
her mind. No; she made her own year
after year and poured it out into her little
glass tumbler, and sealed each tumbler
with a half-sheet of note paper, and
marked each sheet according to the sort
of jelly it rotected-sometimes she made
grape or crab-apple, too. She doled out
her products very economically during
the winter and spring. Then she would
discover about the first of June, that she
had three months supply still on
hand Then, during the summer, the
family would live on jelly and littleelse. !"
AS the title indicates, the narrative is
occupied with the advances made into
"Society'' by the younger generation
whose parents are drawn into the new
current as it were by pure force of cir
cumstance and some of the developments
bring dreary pathos in their wake
"With the Procession is another keen
analysis of certain tendencies active
amongst us and can hardly be read with
out some excellent clarifying of obscured
depths A most sturdy wooing yet with
its bit of tragedy and good many heart
throbs under it is at the funeral of

Enemies in the Rear or Golden Circle
Squared. A Story of Southeastern Pennsyl-
vania in the Time of our Civil War, by
Francis T. Hoover. There is a good deal
of this story in length nor is the narrative
always as spirited or skillful as it might
be; yet we think the author is correct in
maintaining that all phases illustrative
of the state of.smind of people in different
parts of the United States during our
Civil War have value as contributions
to it's literature The period and the
condition here chosen deal with the Penn
sylvania Dutch or Germans, the attempt
to escape the draft of 1862, and the action
of a band of "copperheads, known as
the order of the Sons of Liberty or
knights of the Golden Circle, whose
pledges as here set down are certainly
extraordinary in their disloyalty. A
slight love story runs through the vol

A NEW INDUSTRY.
Limiting Machine in Operation at
Cookies Fertilizer Works.

A. F. Cooke started up his cot
ton limiting machine at Iwilei yes
terday. After a few changes it
worked well. Next week he ex-
poets to put twenty tons of cotton
seed through the machine, separ-
ating the lint-Which will be sold
as waste-and turning the seed
into meal for fertilizer.
In connection with w. n. Arm
strong's report on the possible ex-
tensive demand for cotton in
Japan, Mr.. Cooke inclines to the
belief that a large and remunera-
tive production of the feecy staple
would result from systematic Gull
ture of land lying close to Homo
lulu and elsewhere in the islands.
More is expected to be heard from
the industry just being developed
by Mr.. Cooke.

Foundations Laid and Work Com.
menced on the Walls.

The work on the addition to the
building of the Library Association
is being vigorously pushed by the
foreman, F. J. Wilhelm, under the
direction of G. B. Ripley, the archi-
tect. The extension that formerly
stood at the mauka end of the
main building and contained the
janitors' work room and other con-
veniences has been entirely re-
moved, including the foundation,
which was found inadequate to
sustain any portion of the new
structure.
The entire rear wall of the main
building has been taken out, as
has most of the side wall on the
street side of the circulating de-
partment, the object of the latter
being to allow the placing of a
number of narrow windows where
they will come in the alcoves be-
tween the cases. The foundations
of the new portion are all laid and
today the bricklayers will COM
mence putting up the new wall.
The internal administration of the
library goes on as usual, and there
has been no break in the circulat-
ing department, although it has
thrown a large amount of extra
labor on the librarian, who is emit
tied to great credit for the success
full way in which things have been
conducted under difficulties.

CONTRABAND GOODS CAPTURED,
Gold Watches, Chains and Whiskey
Found on Bark Castle.
Systematic Smuggling Gang Said to Have
Been Unearthed-Big Business In Prec-
ious stones-Probable Arrests.

For some time the customs au-
thorities have been quietly working
to unearth and capture a gang who
have been systematically SNUG
Cling liquors, watches, diamonds,
etc. Recently clews were obtained
which will undoubtedly result in
the capture of the operators. One
of the persons interested in the
contraband trade, who is said to
have had differences with other
members over division of the spoils,
gave information concerning the
operations of the gang.
1t is believed a lucrative trade
has been built up by smugglers in
watches and diamonds, a large
number of precious stones are said
to have been brought into the
country recently.
In searching the bark S. n. Cas-
tie yesterday afternoon customs
guards found four gold watches,
seven gold watch chains and eight
cases of whiskey concealed in the
donkey engine room. The contra
band articles were taken to the
custom house, appraised and stow
ed away. The goods did not ap-
pear on the ships manifest. A
guard was placed on the bark and
the search will be continued this
morning. No opium was discov-
cred.
The customs officers have well
defined suspicious against certain
parties, and several arrests are like
ly to be made today in connection
with the matter.

ARMITAGE HOME.

A New Branch of the San Mateo Or
phanage.
Great interest is felt among members OF
the Episcopal church in the new Armitage
Home, which has been opened at 500
Powell street
1t is branch OF the Armitage orphan
age at San Mateo. When the boys reach
the age of ii the State ceases to provide
for them, and they generally turn longing
eyes toward the City, where they can go
out and earn their living like men. 1t IS
to provide loving happy home for these
courageous little toilers that the home on
Powell street has been opened.
As soon as position is found in store
or at some trade for an Armitage boy he
comes to the City and takes up his abode
at the home instead of being thrown out
into the world to battle for himself and
live as best he can.
The nine boys at present in the home
are each earning $3 a week. Two dollars
and seventy-five cents of this is paid for
board and lodging, for the idea is to make
the little fellows sturdy and independent
and let them realize that they are in no
sense objects of charity. They are all
communicates, so that each faithfully
puts nickel into the collection box Sun

ALASKA'S SEA BOARD.
Interesting Paper by Captain Hooper
Read Before the Geographical
Society.

A large audience assembled in the Y. NJ.
C. A. lecture hall last night to hear
most interesting paper by Captain G. L.
Hooper on 1.-The Bering Sea and Alaskan
Notes." Owing to Captain Hooper's alb
sence in Port Townsend the paper was
read by Professor George Davidson The
occasion was the regular meeting of the
Geographical Society of the Pacific, but
owing to the interesting nature of the SUBJ
iect under consideration many who were
not mem mbers of the society were present.
Among other matters of special import
ance the paper dwelt at length on the cur
rents in the Bering Sea and North Pacific
Ocean. He traced the course of the
Japanese current which, flowing north
ward from the Japanese archipelago,
leaves the eastern coast of Siberia without
affecting Its temperature; while, as it
strikes directly against the west coast of
Alaska it tends to render the climate of
that seaboard much milder than that of
the AsiatIc coast in the corresponding
latitude.
Another fact not generally known is
the presence in Alaska of large numbers
of active volcanoes. The paper states that
from the coast the writer noticed forty
seven volcanoes in a state of eruption, be-
sides MANY others in quiescent STATE
Much information regarding oceanic
currents was also given, which will be
embodied later in charts for the guidance
of mariners.
AT the conclusion OF the reading vote
of thanks was rendered Captain Hooper
for his instructive paper.
1t is understood that Professor Davidson
has in preparation an exhaustive paper OH
the success which attended the introduce
ton of the reindeer into Alaska five years
AGO.
The San Francisco call., 1895-12-20

Mrs. Edith Green, had held their breath h
with suspense before the verdict was
announced. Mrs. Howell and Mrs. Green
burst into tears of JOY, in which Howell s
| little son, being dandled on his fathers
knee, joined with childish sympathy. 1t
was pathetic ending Of case which had
! lasted three years, and on which two former
juries had disagreed.
AS soon as the verdict was recorded At
! torney Joseph c. Campbell arose and
asked the courts pardon, and also that of
The jury ard Deputy Marshal Thomas Gal
lagher for remark he made just before
the Jury retired.
Mr.. Campbell had objected to the Jury
going out in charge of either of the sons
of Secret Service Agent Harris or under
the care Of Mr.. Gallagher, and he told
Judge Morrow he would communicate his
reasons privately to him. Accordingly
the jury was placed in charge OF Deputy
Marshals Monckton and Moffatt. After it
had retired Mr.. Campbell told the court
that he had beard that Mr.. Gallagher had
made remark that two of the jurymen
had been bought by the defendant or
words to that effect.
For awhile it looked as il contempt
case would develop and Mr.. Campbell was
cited by Judge Morrow to appear and ex-
! PLAIN. Mr.. Campbell could not be found
for awhile after he left the courtroom, but
| before o'clock he appeared in the corri-
dors of the building with Marshal Bald
| win.
| Campbell did not let any time be wasted
when the verdict was announced, but Sc
! cured the ear of the court at once and ex-
! planned that his remark had been made
! under misapprehenson. AS he asked the
! forgiveness of the court and all concerned
| s,,t ha afnI fIa V,,Irx
| gracously granted pardon with nod and
| everybody seemed satisfied.
| Just how the jury stood on the first bal
| lot some or the members would not say,
but EIGHT to four for acquittal' was not
contradicted, and if looks and actions be
interpreted this was as good as admitted.
| Foreman Dikeman said the jury had
! agreed to not let ANYBODY know how they
| stood on any one ballot.
During the arguments Attorney Camp
| bell made strong plea for his client and
contrasted severely the manner of Howell
| on the stand with Matt Jones and Secret
Service Agent Harris when testifyng. He
did not overlook the peculiar character of
| the witnesses, Fred Marsh, Charley Muir
rny, Matt Jones and others, which the
Government had employed in the prosecu-
ton of Howell. His speech created the
| impression that he believed Matt Jones to
| be the real offender. Jones, with his fam
| lily, is now en- route to Mexico.
Mr.. Campbell made some structures upon
| Mr.. Harris, saying that his acts as public
officer had been questioned in the past,
and he specified the "Doc' Davenport case
in Oregon and named Judge Bellinger of
Portland as one who had criticized Harris.
THAT is not true" Judge Morrow inter
rupted and the effect of this unexpected
contradiction from the bench was electric.
| Mr.. Campbell's conclusion was dramatic
and pathetic in the extreme and well cal
culated to elicit the sympathies of the
! jurors.
United States District Attorney Foote
closed the argument for the Government.
The courts charge was exhaustive and
fair
