PEOPLE TALKED ABOUT.

Charles Villiers, the father of the House of
Commons, recently celebrated his ninety-third
birthday. He entered Parliament in 1885, and
has represented Wolverhampton without a

ton.
A Washington correspondent says of Senator
Vest: s'He looks like man in heap of trouble

by q trolley-car."

THE SPIRIT OF THE PEEss.

An impatient and disguised Democrat says
the President should remove the executive
Office to Wall street, New York, since thatis the
real seat of Government. He is too hasty. Its
only the Treasury Department that is Fun from
Wall street. The State Department: is prin-
cipally managed from London, and: that OF
Agriculture from Germany just now. The de-
partments of War and Navy are not managed,
and the San Francisco reformers declare that OF
Justice is mismanaged.- Stockton Independent.
The San Francisco Iroquois Club comes out
strong for the San Joaquin Valley RAILROAD.
So does the Pepper Tree Club of Santa Cruz.

Markham evidently thought nobody but a
banker should hold Office ON the San Francisco
Police Commission. One is commercial

in the Legislature, opening way for the Use of

of the new constitution in New York.-Downey

We suppose the storm was just as severe at
Sacramento as it was here in MERGED, because
you know the good book says the rain shall fall

The Treasury Department is looking for q

TIE TRANSATLANTIC ROLLER, BOAT

by means of screw, the other to give the
wheels their rotary motion. The correct CORE
lation being established, it is estimated that
so per cent of the revolution of the wheel will
be forward. Thus, with q wheel of 751a yards
circumference, revolving at the rate of "a
revolutions minute, the maximum number
of revolutions, the vessel would cover dis
lance of 1887 3-5 yards minute, or about 81
miles, that is, 1922 knots an hour. The voy-
age from Havre to New York would at this
rate occupy little under 100 hours.
Among other advantages may be mentioned
the small amount of rolling that, it is said,
would take place, even if the wheels on one
side were forced to the level of the water; the
ease with which repairs to the hull could be
undertaken, docking being unnecessary; and
injury to wheel even could be made good
without putting into port, the damaged wheel
and its corresponding wheel on the opposite
side only being stopped while repairs were exc
cuted, the remaining wheels continuing their

perform clerical work to such a degree
There should be clerk for that purpose
I'm my opinion the internes should per
form this duty only they could give a
proper history of ward case" put in DR.
Bucknall.
Mayor Sutro during this hair-splitting
seemed to be lost and wearied. Finally as
around in circle, he said: would it not
be better to have clerk to keep these hos
pital records properly?"
Acting on the Mayors suggestion it was
finally agreed to employ stenographer al
a salary of not over 500 a month. 1t will
be the stenographer's duty to take the die
tations of the internes every day on all
cases and to record and index them.
81 move that the internes all be given
diplomas" said DR.. Regensburger, and
here another fight took place.
1t was apparent that DR.. Titus wanted to
punish the internes for their refusal to
obey him, and some warm words passed
between the members of the board.
AS long as | am Superintendent will
be obeyed," said DR.. Titus passionately,
"or / will get out of the hospital. l should
be the one to judge whether they are en-
titled to diplomas or not and l will never
be satisfied until they perform all their
work"
DR.. Long suggested that the internes per-
form this work before certificates were
granted, but the internes stated that it
would take month to do so.
The motion of DR.. Regensburger was lost,
the Mayor and Drs. Buckna1 and Long
voting against it.
subsequently it was discovered that the
motion had been improperly put, and, on
it being brought up second time, the
board ordered the diplomas given to the
internes.

RpIf

NEW YORK. Dec. 5.--John j. Quinn,
manager of Peter Maher, met Dan
Stuart this morning and agreed to
fight between Maher and Fitzsimmons-
Quinn heard Stuart's proposition,
which was for fight with Fitzsim-
mons for $4,000 purse, and the
championship belt, to be held near FL
Paso, Texas. Quinn assented to it and
called for articles of agreement. Stuart
suggested that they would better be
signed outside the State and Quinn
acquiesed. The date selected is either
February 18th or 18th.
1t is proposed to pull the fight OFF in
Mexico, Just across the Rio Grande
from Fl PasO, Texas. 1t is planned to
erect there an amphitheatre atfording
seats for 1000 persons. The articles
of agreement will be practically the
same MS those agreed to by Corbett
and FitZSimmOns.
FjtzSimmous and Maher have met
before i'm the prize ring. They fought
at New Orleans ON March 2, 1892 and
Maher was yanquished in twelve
rounds.
Maher was knocked out by Joe God
dardon, December s, 1892 in three
rounds fought in the Coney Island
Athletic Clubs arena.

The Pres dent ON en- Another Ex-
iended Hunting IoGr.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-Fhe Presi-
dent left Washington tonight on the
lighthouse tender, Maple, to recuper-
ate from the strain he has been under
in the preparation of his message to
Congress and on q hunting trip
through the North Carolina sounds.
With him were DIR. O'Reilly, Comman-
der George Il. Wilde, naval secretary
of the lighthouse board and commander
Benjamin 2. Lamberton, in charge of
the lighthouse district comprising the
sounds.
The little vessel was well provision
ed and it is likely that if the weather
is fair the President will not return to
Washington before the 18th or 18th of
the month. The Maple was headed for
the mouth of Chesapeake Bay just
about dusk. and the trip began with a
cloudy northwest and rather raw
and biting wind that is commonly re-
galded as the best possible weather
lur water fowl III this section.
Unless it is deemed we'll to lie up in
the lower Potomac over night on the
chance of picking up some ducks there,
the Maple should arrive at Norfolk to-
morrow forenoon There she will en-
ter the Chesapeake and Albemarle ca
nal and pass through the upper end of
the system of sounds which extend
from Virginia clear down to Whining
ton, n. c. Reports received by the
President indicate that ducks and
goose have appeared in these favored
waters in large numbers on their flight
southwark before the winter gales,
and it is hoped that the trip viii be
even more successful than that under
taken last spring in the same waters,
when most of the fowl had already
started northward. All of the Presi-
dents companions have made this trip
before in his company, and are conse-
quently well acquainted with the best
shooting grounds. 1t is expected that
the cruise will extend as far south as
Wilmington, n. c., though most of the
time the party will be further up the
sounds, not far from Roanoke Island.
