the cause recognize him as a brother.
Mayor Sutro joined the army during the
recent visit of Mrs. Ballington Booth to
this City. He entertained the missionary
at luncheon at Sutro Heights, and was SO
moved by the eloquence Of her after-dinner
speech that he did not demur when she
called upon him to come into the fold.
1t is not believed that the Mayor will
take an active part in the work of the
army Just at the present time, except in so
far IS his influence and money go. 1t was
for the benefit of those wealthy and influ-
ential persons who desire to identity them
selves with the work of the army, and at
the same time avoid many of its customs
and forms, that the auxiliary was formed.
When Mrs. Booth arrived on this Coast
1t boasted OF but 800 mem bers in this State.
but through her efforts the enrolment has
been increased to 1000. The enrolling of
the thousandth member-a ceremony that
is religlously observed in the army-wiil
take place on Thursday evening next at
Metropolitan Temple, when Mrs. Booth
delivers her farewell address before return
ing home.
Mayor Sutro is not the only prominent
parsonage who has agreed to lend his in
huence and financial backing to the aux
lllary. Mayor Austin of San Jose is full
tedged member, as are President and Mrs.
Jordan of Stanford University; Henry
French, who ran for Governor of the State
on the Prohibition ticket; Judge Camp
bell, the Demosthenes CT the Police Court
bench; several Judges of the Superior
Court, and ministers, bankers and attor-
neys in great number. The work of the
auxiliary seems to have appealed particu-
larly to the wealthy and fashionable ladies
OF exclusive society circles, for Mrs. Booth
has the names of many of these on her
list.
Mrs. Booth completes her labors here on
the 8th inst, and before leaving will de-
liver an address before the students of the

"POP" BEAT THE MONOPOLY.

A Ledger reporter occupied one Of
the benches in downtown square
with politician, when, sauntering
along at an easy gait, came the father
of a family. and he had the family in
tow. His right hand held the left
hand of five-year-old. while an infant
with a cute little white sun bonnet
perched on his left arm endeavored
to unfasten the few Struggling hairs
ornamenting the pater's upper lip.
The wife and two small sons, who
looked about 10 and IL years old, fol-
lowed the advance guard of the family.
Near the center of the square
stood one of Councilman Bristow' s
beautiful slot machines. with its big
clock-like face beaming patronizingly
on the group, to whom it silently an
nounced that for one cent it would
give correct weight. AS soon as son
number one had read the announce
ment he pleaded SO earnestly to "get
weighed" that his two younger BROTH
ers joined in the chorus.
AS soon as the father could get a
word in edgewise he quietly remarked
to the clamoring juveniles that it was
Thursday and he "only had 6 cents
left.
The trio of youngsters received this
news with crestfallen countenances,
but suddenly the same kind of a coun-
tenance ON which was pictured woe on
the sons on the fathers lit up with the
light and expression Of man who has
"struck good thing"
Quickly, almost nervously, he
handed the infant to his wife, and
diving into his pocket he produced a
nickel and copper.
"Pop" stood On the scale and dropped
in the penny. The hand travelled
around the dial until it stood opposite
the mark indicating 152 pounds. Then,
before he got off the scale, he had his
wife step on. The hand went back to
1877. Then, in succession, the twelve
year old son, the en-year-old. the five
year, old and the baby were weighed,
and. gathering his family around him,
Pop" walked proudly off, with the
visible feeling of satisfaction at having
beaten a grinding, grasping monopo-
ly" out of cents. "-Philadelphia

One night recently the meanest man
in Manchester procured some crabs and

the parlor undid the package.

crabs rot frightened and let go of their

AN INTERESTING DISCOVERY.

In the Port Royal Mountains. jana
lea, an interesting archaeological dis
covery was recently made of a cave
containing the skeletons of at least. "a
of the aboriginal Arawaks. When
Columbus discovered the island in
1494 the Arawaks were estimated at
about 100000. A century and half
later, on the capture of Jamaica by the
English. they had completely disap-
peared, even to their bones. as only the
SKULLS until now had been found.
These showed frontal depression with
lateral expansion, an artificially formed
deformity, that is also found in those
just discovered. which are of all ages.
A shattered canoe of cedar wood, 2 feet
long and / 4 feet wide, an arborvita
mortar, and two earthenware vessels
were found with the skeletons.

pugilists trick of kicking forward.
Feeding the cocks avails little. He is
usually tainted and Knocked until he
is furious, when muscular fellows
seize him around the neck, and, bend
ing the head to the ground, hood him.
He is then powerless to do harm, but
he tires out his captors by the time the
plucking is done. An average feather
bird yields one and one-fourth pounds
of feathers at a plucking, those of the
cock being of heavier and more yalu.
able quality than those of the hen.
Body feathers are not taken, but are
picked up during the moulting season
and used for trimmings. boas and
collars.
The average weight of a full grown
male ostrich is l75 pounds. While to
the uninitiated the difference in birds
is slight, it is as apparent to the
breeder as is the difference in sheep
or cattle An ostrich expert will
choose compact, large boned bird, and
the California bred ostriches are fine
specimens of this style.
The life of an ostrich is usually
thirty years. The birds are sold at
various prices. A chick commonly
brings about $50, 3-year-old bird
$500, fine breeding pair $1,000.
The prime white feathers sell for
$75 pound at wholesale, and as much
as $7.50 is often received for single
plume of unusual excellence. The
next in value are the long black
plumes. then the long drab ones from
the hen. The average value of the
plucking from single bird is $35,
and. as it is plucked three times in
two years, the value of the annual
product in plumes for each bird is
about $50

SECRETARY MORTON'S CREST.

One of the most emphasized traits of
the nature of Mr.. Morton, the secre-
taIy of Agricultural is his love for trees,
says the Washington Star. Morton
possesses for trees almost that sympa-
thetic interest he has for human be-
ing and betrays all of that admiration
for forest which belongs with the
druids. Indeed, Morton might have
made in his love for the oak famous
brother of that dim, far-off twilight
priesthood of the woods. if he had only
lived in druid days. 1t was Secretary
Morton who, in 1879. became the sug-
gestor and author of Arbor Day-set-
ting a tree-planting example, which
has been followed far and wide, as a
standing army of a million trees bears
witness. They might all have decayed
or been eaten by wormy death as
acorns, save for Morton and his Arbor
Day. While the most obdurate and
democratic of Americans, Secretary
Morton, had adopted coat of arms.
Avoiding all terms of heraldic sort,
this coat of arms is the picture of a
wide-spreading oak in full green leaf,
and beneath it for motto is written:
"Piant trees"
"And do you know" said Secretary
Morton, when speaking of this coat of
arms the other day, 81 was not little
struck. while journeying in Scotland
last summer. when learned that the
crest of the Scotch house Of Morton
was tree. I began to wonder if after
all my admiration for tree was not
inherited from some forest loving an
cestor who lived and died in Scotland
centuries ago."

HOW FAR SPIDERS SEE.

Experiments have been made to decide
how far spiders can see. and it has been
determined that they have range of
vision Of at least a foot. It is not
always possible to tell. however,
whether the lower animals perceive
by sight or hearing or by the action air
in motion has on their bodies. Exper-
iments tend to show that mice are SEN
sitive to motions Of the air which to
human ears create no sound whatever.

AFTER THE REWARD.
FRANK BOWLER WANTS PAY FOR
CONNECTING ALVA JOHNSON.
HS Says He Comprised tho Roscoe
Robbers Cspturs aud Wants to
be Paid.

Frank Dowlsr thinks that his il en-.
titled to reward OF $1,000. and if there
is any earthly show of getting it by 60
ing to law. he means to try it. That ia
the reason that he brought suit yester-
day in the superior court against the
Southern Pacific and Wells, Fargo &
Co. He wants not only ths $1,000 al
ready mentioned. but also psr cent on
that sum since December 15sh Of last
year.
1t will be recoliccisd that the South.
ern Pacific train No. 20 was wrecked at
Roscoe siding on February Is, 1894, and
that the following day tho railroad and
express company published circular
promising to pay jointly the SUM OF
$1,000 &C reward for the arrest and con-
viotion of the perpetrators of the OUT
rage.
The allegations in the complaint are
az follows: Dowler went to work on
the case with great energy, but it was
not until the 23d of October that his
clues had assumed the shape which
made success possible. On that day,
however, he not only furnished the
necessary inform6tion, but swors out a
warrant for the arrest of Alva Johnson,
one of the robbers, before Justios Bar
tholomew. Thereupon Johnson was
brought to the county Jail and alter
wards examined and neld to snswer.
On December 10Th. when Alvs Johnson
had come to the conclusion that he
could no longer esonps the just punish
ment of his crime. he pleaded guilty
before Judge Smith, who sentenced him
to life imprisonmenS in San Quentin, q
Judgment from which no appeal was
taken.

but he wss doomed to disappointment
In the words of the Bowery, they gave
