VICTIM OF THE MIDwINrER FAIR :
A Frenchmsn Who Lost His All VIII Walk to
New Orleans -

SAN FRANCISCO, April 26.-It is
nearly 1000 miles from here to New Or
leans as the Southern Pacific cars make
the trip. yet John Rigoulot started from
this city to walk the distance Friday
morning.
Rigouiot is Frenchman and an archi-
tect. He came to this city about eighteen
months ago with over $4,000 in his
pocket and a concession for privileges at
the midwlnter fair. This venture was not
profitable and Rigoulot lost his money.
Mrs. Rigoulot and her two children will
leave Friday morning for New Orleans by
train throu h the kindness OF members
of the French colony who have interested
themselves in her behalf. Rigoulot de-
cidsd to set out for New Orleans on foot
with two companions who were about to
attempt the trip in this way for the same
reasons as himself. His earthly possess
ions when he kissed his wife and babies
goodby Friday morning consisted of n
packet and nickel coin.

No Fear of Further TroubIe-Psace and
HARMONY

During the last session Of the legis-

very slim prospect. of passing the anti,
cigarette law. great many people openly
declared that it would be far better to
have Il new law regulating plumbers
bills than to tamper with the use OF the
alleged brain dwarting and muscle-reduc.-
ing little white rolls of nicotine and
other drugs.
In Los Angeles, however, plumbers.
bills do not need regulating, that is j.
work in this line is done by the old reli-
able firm of w. c. Furrey Co.. 159 to

This establishment has wel-earncd
reputation for promptness thoroughness,
reliability and low charges. In addition

Lucky Dice
MERIDIAN. Miss. April 26.-News
comes from Vussburg. Miss, of an un-
precedented destruction in this section by
negroes of the grave of woman, near
that place. who was buried two years
ago. Several weeks since it Was noticed
that the grave had been disturbed, and the
body, in remarkable state OF preserva-
ton. exposed. 1t was supposed at the
time that the work was that of parties
searching for hidden treasure. but later
developments led to the arrest OF Monroe
Smith, George Grayson and Cicero Ullmer.
1t seems that the negroes inferred the
body for the purpose of procuring what
is known among their race as .uncon
fure" bones. and which is the fourth rib
of the left side of the body. from which

crap games, the negroes believing such

negroes named have all been arrested and

THE COMING CONVENTIONS

The work of booming San Francisco
as the city for holding the next national
conventions of the Democratic and Re-
publican parties has commenced. Dele
gates are being appointed by western
states to meet in convention IN the city
of fog and manslaughter at an early date.
The purpose of this convention will be to
map out plan of campaign to be waged
within both parties until the places of
meeting have been determined upon.
California should secure at least one of
these great gatherings, and We believe if
the right kind of work is done she can
induce both to launch their presidential
craft in San Francisco. OF course, for
tAonusand politically sentimental rea-
sons, the idea of getting these bodies to
convene here is delightfully."- attractive
enough to arouse some Of our people to
the most intense enthusiasm. But above
and beyond these very pleasant considera-
cent reasons.
The material of both conventions is
composed OF men thoroughly representa-
tive both in business and political affairs.
And then very large number OF gentle
men of equal or greater caliber usually
accompany the delegates. There is thus
gathered at one place multitude of indi-
viduals who really repressn all the varied
influences and forces that inspire and
shape the industrial. financial and polit;-
cal activities of the country. They come
from all the avocatlons of life, and EN- :
brace men who are already or are destined
to be members of the national legislature,
governors of states. possible presi-
dents, actual or future cabinet officials,
men who possess or represent capital. and
men on the alert and ever ready to enter
new and promising fields for the employ
lnent of their talents and energy. To reach
San Francisco, the president makers will
have to traverse an expanse of country
OF. 1t is 7ot an exaggeration to say that
the people of the Atlantic and Gulf states
and the states adjoining, know little if
any more of the region west of the Father
of Waters than they do of Great Britain.
These are the most thickly populated
states and consequently exercise con-
trolling influence in national legislation
and with the federal executive depart
ments. The lists of delegates from this
part of the union will include men who
Will be the deciding factors in great issues

Men Who Are Mentioned.

Several of the eastern newspapers
have II that ex-senator Edmunds will
be named as one of the Venezuelan
commissioners. In 1892 Mr.. Edmunds
resigned his seat in the senate on the
plea that he was weary of the public
service. He is about sixty-eight years
old; II his general health is a match for
his mental vigor. he could probably en-
dure the arduous work which VIII de-
volve on the commission Mr.. Ed
munds, IL will be remembered, did not
get on admirably well with the white
house in the early part of Mr.. Cleve-
lands first term He was the leader
in the senate In the vigorous attempt
to force the president to deliver to the
senate all documents needed to show
cause for recent removals from office.
In later years, however. President
Cleveland and Mr.. Edmunds go on well
enough together.
Some OF the correspondents are sure
that Edward ]. Phelps will be one Of
the commissioners. He was minister TO
Great Britain in the first Cleveland
administration. He is an authority on
constitutional law and is thoroughly
trained In the art of diplomacy. He Is
an older man by FIVE or six years than
Edmunds. These two men are Ver-
monters.
Andrew d. White is mentioned as a
probable commissioner. He was for
merly president OF Cornell university.
In early life he had experience In the
diplomatic service. He was minister to
Germany during the Hayes administra-
tion and minister to Russia in Harri-
sons term. Twenty-four years ago.
Mr.. White was a member of the famous
Santo Domingo expedition sent out
during President Grants administra-
tion to report on the question of the
annexation of that island to the United
States. Mr.. White is New Yorker.
Thus far, the people who gossip
about the new commission do not take
account of the fact that "some good
western man" may be in the presi-
dents mind.

Let II Be Merry.

The gentle lesson which the season
Of good will to men" conveys Is made
the more emphatic by the fact that the
approach of Christmastide this year
has been filled with rumors of war.
The peace on earth that was heralded
centuries ago has its full import to-
day-it is the peace which comes. in its
application to nations. from a convic-
ton among the people that every
domestic obligation has been met and
every duty toward less favored nations
has been discharged.
We may put aside to-day the dis
tracing themes that lately have en-
crossed our attention. Our first duty
is to take account of the event which
each recurring Christmas is designed
to commemorate. 1t is the Christian
worlds grandest day; through the
ages 1t has been celebrated with glad
ness, with gratitude and with ceremo-
nious pomp. We cherish, at Christ
mas, the delightful traditions that have
come down to us from generation to
generation-how venerable the anniver-
sary Isl We perpetuate the customs
that put sunshine into our own child
life by imparting them in loving SER
vice to our children and their children.
Time has hallowed the offices that give
to Christmas its distinctive character.
In the wide circle where the Stand
ard finds its readers this day ought to
be a Christmas of good cheer. The
gifts we send and the tokens that come
to US from others have a sacred signifi-
canoe; they are typical of that which
is highest and noblest and most inspir-
ing and at the same time most cheer
ing in human life. Especially in Mon
tana. this ought to be a day of univer-
sal good feeling. We can celebrate
under the patriotic assurance that. fol
our country. 1t will be peace with honor
always; II II is war, we are prepared t
face it. In the most cordial meaning
the good old words can convey, tn,
Standard wishes all its readers

A considerate act was that of the
senate yesterday in passing without
division the bill to repeal the law which
bars all ex confederate officers and SOL
diers from appointment in the United
States army and navy. 1t was a
Christmas gift to the South and a rich
ly merited one. The excuse for the
existence of this law has long ago
passed away. The bill passed yester-
day will be regarded as one of the most
praiseworthy acts to the credit of its
author, Senator Hill. While the pros
pect of war with England is not gen.
orally regarded as strong. 1t is well
that every step needed to unity the
nation In fact as we'll as in spirit should
be taken. Every consideration of good
judgment demanded that the disabili-
ties of the ex-confederate should be
| removed.
