Peculiar Manins.
FROM &c New York Pres.


Each of US has a hobby. With some il
amounts to a mania. l have seen some
strange manias in my time. In a private
asylum in the interior of the state, there
is man, one of the handsomest ever seen,
who passes his waking hours rocking him
self in big arm chair. why do you rock
so much?'' asked him. Every time nv
chair comes forward il adds golden eagle
to my fortune" he replied, as he went on
more busily than ever rocking and count
ing. He has been rocking anu Counting
these twelve years. The noted DR. Neil OF
Philadelphia had mania for watches I
sought him one night in behalf of a sick
friend. He said he would go at once and
asked me the time. Before could answer
he had taken out a watch and was exam
lining the inside of the case. This Watcf
was set al 5.32 on Wednesday, June g. and

strument on table, he took out another

there were seven watches in sight. / do

cts. Each had its record pasted inside the
case, and the doctor must explain an fo

but the saddest of all the cases broue -l1f
this week before an unfeeling public is
that of Viscount Hill, whose most cher
ished heirlooms have been sold at auction
by order of the trustee in bankruptcy.
The auction took place at Shrewsbury
and attracted amateur and professional
collectors and dealers from all parts
of the country. Some lots fetched SEN
sational prices. AS much as 50 per ounce
was paid for old silver plate. This, to
be sure, was an exceptional lot consist
ing of a beautiful dish and ever But So

family sunk that even military medals and
crosses won by hard fighting in the field

for the helmet worn by Gen. Lord Hill
at the battle of. Aboukir. A gold cross

A QUEER FIND.
Oak Log Discovered Three Hundred
and Forty Feet Underground.
From the San Francisco Can.

From the San Francisco Call.
The drill of the Santa Barbara Ice Com
pany, which is boring we'll In the lower
part of that town has passed through a
charred log some two feet in diameter
at depth of $40 feet. A careful examina-
ton of specimens obtained indicates that
the fong-buried tree is an oak similar to
the species growing above ground to-day.
Much speculation is rife as to how this
tree came so far beneath the surface OF
the soil, but an intelligent scrutiny Of
the Santa Clara valley gives a clear geo
logical explanation of certain conditions
attending this discovery.
Either end of the valley at Santa Bar
bara on the one hand and at Goleta on the
other has at some past time been an inlet
of the sea, The lower land received the
wash from a great extent of mountain
Gus country. The detritus from the hills
constantly carried down by winter floods
and deposited below, at length filled vi,
these inlets and gradually advanced the
shore line, as it is doing to-day wherever
the wash from the hills follows its own
course, While constantly burying from
sight the vegetation of a past day This
charred log once lay at the bottom of
the sea. Ii was found in a stratum of
blue water sand and determines the great
depth of what was once fine harbor
extending probably a mile or more hack
of the present beach.
This theory is confirmed by the faet
that both at Goletta and Santa Barbara
the soil is to an extraordinary depth
nothing but black loan, occasional strealxs
OF clay and sand having been encounter
ed. Similar trees as we'll as beds of sea
shells, have been encountered in well
boring at great depths in Goleta. Old
Indian traditions tell of a monster dis
turbance in the past. Some great convul-
sion of nature must have sunk the entire
valley, for this tree lies 300 feet below the

with black feather trimming. Thus are you in the very height of fashion, for thus are half of the spring dresses made One white satin evening dress has an entire covering of ietfed lace. The bodice is of white satin with deep band of black jet across the bust and a fall of it over the shoulders. The gloves are white and in the fair hair of the clever blonde who designed the con lection is woven a tiny black aigrette fastened with a white satin bow.
 Turquoise blue with black is another idea of the season. At q reception re- gently tall slight fair girl wore blue silk sprayed with a small yellow flower while through that ran a black stripe, very fine but very distinct The skirt has a deep rudle of black tulIe caught with black satin ribbons. The waist has a soft face front of black chiffon and girdle of black jet, while the square-eut e0rsaee is finished with a plain band of jet. most effective against the white skin, Black suede gloves and fan of pale blue and black feathers carry out the idea.
 Another turquoise blue waist is worn with perfectly plain black skirt. The bodice here is of blue silk, cut low, gathered full in front down to the waist and held in with soft fold of blue velvet. The sleeves are immense bouffant affairs just to the elbows where the long, black gloves meet them.
 There has never been a blue like that which is called turquoise this spring. Look at it and wear it if the fashion suits your complexion.
 The prettiest evening dress that l have seen this week was very pale yellow chiffon. The skirt was accor-

short sleeves have rosettes at the el- bows, and bows with long ends of green velvet ribbon trim the waist at the left-hand side.
 But that is for grand occasion. For tennis or boating, or the hundred and one vacation uses, a figured blue aannelette is more suitable, Itis made with three box plaits down the front and with band collar, smartened with bow of dark blue ribbon. The sleeves are full and gathered into nar- row cuffs, and the body of the blouse bags just the veriest trifle, as is the way of all fashionable blouses this spring.
 A pretty blonde girl has an Easter dress you may Bike to hear about. It is of pale blue cloth, with one of those new skirts that are all seams. Down each seam runs a thread of jet passe- menterie The bodice is tailor fitting; it opens behind, and over it is worn short cape covered with jet passemen- terie, 4 black chiffon ruche forms full collar at the throat, knotted in front with bunch of violets. There is a Swiss belt of jet embroidery for the waist, and, of course, huge balloon sleeves.
 White and black is the spring combi- nation. Not black and white, but white ground with black accessories. Take white dress, that perhaps you have been wearing and are a little bit tired of, and cover up all the bad places

 ''Too Much Johnson" had it's one hundred and fftieth performance at the Standard theater on April Il. The souvenirs for the oeca- sion were appropriate. William Gil lette and his comedy company have so far held the crowds for six months at the Standard and their drawing power doesn't seem to have decreased; the house is damned to the doors now as it was in its first weeks. MT. Gil- bert's work on the play is the best he has ever done. His Yonl1ers liar is a great character, and the numerous ways in which he renders the mother in-law unhappy keep the packed audi ences in roars of laughter.

SOCIETY TALKS OF IT. will triumph. For one thing, there is to be clean sweep. The removal of Kerwyn and Murray, the two police commissioners, will be but the preliminary of very drastic measures on the part of Mayor Strong E. L. Godkin, who has the mayors ear, is outspoBen in lis advo- eacy of this step, and it may be stated that Mir. Strong has conditionally promised to do this very thing An other departure of the reformers will be the establishment of the proposition taat hereafter national politics must al- ways be subservient to municipal re- form. As everybody knows, the very reverse has hitherto been the case. The good government clubs are re- sponsible for this. Tkeir leader, Ed mund Kelly, one of the most infuen- tial of New Yorlr's rising young law yers, and the man who to-day is head and front of the munic- fpal reform movement throughout the country, has brought thls state of things about. It may surprise even New Workers who have followed local politics to know that such people as Cornelius Vanderbilt, Mrs Parran Stevens, Mrs. William Astor and Com modore and Mrs Gerry, have had each finger, so to speak, in this pie MT. Kelly has interested them in municipal affairs. But he has done more. He has gone to the labor leaders and the labor unions and has succeeded in seeur- inp their enumeration in tho 4y-orlr h and his colaborers have at heart. And even this is not the end of Mr. Kellys work. His latest plan is to interest all the churches, Catcholic, Protestant and Jewish, in reform municipal work. That may seem daring plan to come from any young man, even though he be at the same time q society man, a wealthy lawyer and ward worker in New York city politics. Yet he has succeeded, partially Bishop Potter, Monseigneur Dueey, Archbishop eorri- gan and Rabbi Gottheil have all taken a sympathetic interest in his plans. Sensational as have been the develop ments so far, they promise to be exceed ed in that respect by what is to come. Not only in the houses of the poor, but ln the lounging places of the wealthy, the new movement has it's supporters. Young men and women at soirees and eocial functions generally have taken up the cause as q fad. We seem to be on the eve of an agitation that will realize what has long been a dream, an absolute nou-partisanship of city government.

The president is now giving his sit tings to Detroit man twice 8 week. The reason given for this slight seems even more exasperating than the slight itself The last picture of Mrs. Cleve- land was huge painting in oil some thing after the Beardsley style of art.
 The first lady in the land was depicted in g very fowery and famboyant fash ion, but, fortunately, the likeness itself was so poor that no one could have recognized it. Nevertheless, it was sought to intercept the masterpiece, but unhappily the picture had been shipped abroad for the Paris exhibition this spring. The incident very much annoyed the family, and Mir. Cleve- lands family long refused to sit to painters. That MT. Cleveland is now favoring Detroit artist is not a very pleasant circumstance to metropolitan painters. There would, from the ma terial point of view, be big money in a painting from life of the president, but it is very hard to get him to sit and when the present job is finished he is likely to wash his hands of portraiture for good and all.

The arch itself, the center of commemoration, is now superb object, all white and resplen- dent, the recent dishguremento of it's fair surface by bottle of red ink, thrown by the reckless hand of boy, being entirely effaced. The splendors of this coming occasion are expected to eclipse any similar event of the kind ever wit messed in New York. The affair, how ever, will be rich, not gaudy. The governor has set his heart upon having the festivity most brilliant. The social interest in it is extreme. Even the chatter and wall of the flute, rehearsing the grand march composed for the occasion, a chatter and wall that made Fifth avenue weary, are endured when 1t was said what occasion was being re- hearsed for. There had been protest filed with the police, but the property belongs to the governor himself, and the noise is only temporary. so endur- ance was resolved upon. New Workers are certainly sacrificing themselves to make this celebration grand.
