Britain SLOWLY washing AWAY.

The British board Of photographers
have made report which is startling
in some of its details 1t appears that
after long series Of observations it has
been ascertaineG that the little Thames
is carrying $4,000, 600 cubic feet Of
British soil into the sea annually. In
order to get an idea of what the above
figures really mean, let us imagine a
huge mass of stone 100 feet in width,
100 feet long and 100 feet high. Then
let US imagine that IA of these immense
cubes are yearly floated out to sea from
the British mainland The Thames ba-
sin has, however, an area of 6, 100
square miles The immense amount of
solid matter alluded to above is taken
grain by grain from this large extent of
surface, so that it only wears away the
surface of the basin as a whole at the
rate of one-eight hundredth part of an
inch each year. At the rate of wear and
tear mentioned in the opening para
graph of this article one would natural
ly suppose that within few hundred
years the whole Of the main British isle
would be deposited at the bottom of the
ocean, but owing to the vast area frvm
which that IA, 900, 900 cubic feet of sol,
Id matter is gathered the basin of the
Thames has only been lowered one sim
gle inch sl1"A the Norman conquest.
Some of the readers of this will no
doubt be disappointed to find that the
rate of erosion is so slow and will de-
clare that the head line conveys a differ

to suggest that these two young women
are not as good and virtuous as they are
undeniably pretty, and it is fact that
they reside i'll genteel suburb with
their widowed mother and frequently
take part in local church charity con

of severe responsibility afforded by tine
fact that their father was clerk in tbs

THE ABUSED NIGHT AIR
1T Is Not Mans Enemy, but Warns Him
of Lurking Danger.

great deal of solemn nonsense has been
talked and written about the "night air." Ex-
cept that it is cooler it is just like the day air.
If it makes a man shiver and cough he ought
to be thankful and not find fault. Nature is
polite She never strikes without warning,
and the cough and chill are precautionary
signals.
They mean that the body has been attacked
by creeping, insidious spring cold, the
special pest of this season, when balmy days
and bleak ones follow each other with swift
fluctuations. What a spring cold may lead to,
in the way of sore lungs and rheumatic mus
Giles, sensible people don't wait to find cut by
experience.
They fortify themselves with Duffy's Pure
Malt Whisky. 1t sets the blood moving
eriskly, so there is none of the clogging called
congestion, whereby certain organs are over
loaded with blood, while the surface of the
body is pallid and cold
Taken after exposure to cold air, day or
night, Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey conveys
warm blood to the skin. where the outer ends
of the nerves are bathed in the life-bearing
fluid. Thus are pleurisy and kindred ills STAYED
off. He who takes this wholesome and strength
bestowing stimulant win find the air of night
harmless as that of high noon.

gave his name and influence to lawyer
friend. He signed this friends papers,
and the candidate went to Washington to
press his chances. While he was there
Gresham received telegram informing
him OF his own nomination. He at once
telegraphed his friend, and the unsuccess-
ful asplrant wired Gresham to accept by
all means. Thus he assembled the Federal
bench, and for twelve years, it is said, SO
ably decided the many cases coming be-
fore him that not one of his decisions was
ever reversed by the Supreme Court.
his subsequent career is well known.
His call to the Cabinet of President Arthur
was as much surprise to him as his ele-
walton to the bench had been, and in his
administration of the postotfice he was
wise, active and strong. He made a model
administrative officer, and, in war as well
as In peace, on the stump, in the field, on
the bench, in the Cabinet, has shown him
self, In his quiet way, to be man OF I'M
usual capacity and ability. He never yet
scored failure, and the Arthur admins
tration left no better legacy to the people
than the man whom the President in the
closing days of his term selected to fill
the place of the venerable and retiring
Judge Drummond.
Judge Gresham married, in 1858, Miss
Matilda McGrain, the daughter of a
farmer living near Corydon. They have
son and daughter, both grown.
Near the close of Arthur's term, on the
death of Secretary Folger, he was ap-
pointed Secretary OF the Treasury, posi-
ton he held until October, 1884. President
Arthur, who had taken him from the
bench, had the satisfaction of restoring
him to the bench at the close of his service
by appointing him to succeed Judge Drum

lieye that there will ever be two other classes
whose members will have SO strong a regard
for each other as do the members of '95 and
'96. And after we are gone, we who have
known '95 best, this old oak will keep the
name of '95 green, and its shade win always
welcome the returning pioneer.
The students of Stanford will always think
kindly of the 95's,whose places can never quite
be filed by any incoming class. We who have
been here with you, '95, shall miss your famil-
lar faces, and we are sorry to have you leave
us, but your college days have drawn to close,
and we bid you farewell with best wishes for
the future.
The programme concluded with college
song dear to every students heart-"Hail,
Stanford, Hail. and set to
music by Professor and Mrs. A. w. Smith.
Where the rolling foothills rise
Up toward mountains higher,
Where at eve the Coast Range lies,
In the sunset fire.
Flushing deep and paling;
Here we raise our voices hailing
Thee our Alma Mater.
REFRAIN.
From the foothills to the bay
1t shall ring;
As we sing
1t shall ring and float away;
Hail, Stanford, hail.
Hail, Stanford. hail!
Tender vistas ever new
Through the arches meet the eyes,
Where the red roofs rim the blue
OF the sun-steeped skies.
Flecked with cloudlets sailing.
Here we raise voices, hailing
Thee our Alma Mater.
When the moonlight bathed arcade
Stands in evening Gains;
When the light wind, half afraid,
Whispers in the palms;
Far OFF swelling, failing,
Student voices glad haing
Thee Alma Mater.
And the volume of music and song that
| rolled up from the throng of bright, happy
faces seemed indeed to "ring from the
foothills to the bay"
The social event of the week took place
tonight in the gymnasium. All vestiges
of the "Pinafore" and its attendant para
phernalia had been hastily removed, and
the great hall transformed into brilliant
ballroom. The decorations were evergreen,
cardinal and gray-cardinal for the uni
yersity gray for the class. Music was fur
nished by Ritzau of San Francisco
Twenty-Five numbers were on the pro-
gramme. Guests were present from all
parts of the State, and to them and to all
others the pioneer class demonstrated its
ability as an entertainer. George D. STRAIT
ton, chairman of the committee, deserves
the praise of making the affair an unpre-
cedented social event.
The festivities of the week reach their
climax tomorrow night--the promenade
in the quadrangle. The great aggregation
or buildings are being elaborated, dec
grated and illuminated for the occasion.

Weitzner & Gutenberg Think an
Assignee Better Than a Re-
ceiyer.
The Weitzner & Gutenberg case was
called before Judge Jamison yesterday
morning. The matter came up on ap-
plication for a receiver, which was re-
sisted on the ground that a previous
assignment had been made to Frank
w. Davis. 1t was contended on the
part of the Powers Dry Goods COM
pany that Davis was acting in the in
terests of the insolvents, and that
the bulk of the stock had been con-
cealed to defraud the creditors. Free
man p. Lane, representing the firm,
moved a dismissal of the receivership
proceedings, which was denied. The
attorney for the Powers Dry Goods
company read a petition for a re-
ceiver, in which all kinds of fraud were
charged. The petition recited that
within sixty days of the assignment
the firm had paid the Washington
bank $4,000, making it a preferred
creditor, with intend to defraud the
others; that the bulk of the stock had
been packed in boxes and cases and
concealed in warehouses to defraud
the creditors; that a transfer to P. P.
Swenson was made on March IS, with
out any consideration, and that Sven
son participated in the. fraud; that
Abraham Weitzner, the manager was
member of the firm, and had con
cealed its assets, thus participating
in the fraud.
The testimony of Betty Weitzner and
Dora Gutenberg, wives of. the members
OF the firm, showed that they knew
very little of the business transacted
by their husbands, although they are
supposed to constitute the firm, and
that they did what their husbands told
them to do and no more. -,r..-...

MANY SICK cows.
Health Commissioner Avery
Makes n Startling ReDort

Makes Startling Report.
Health Commissioner H. N. Avery
submitted to the council Friday night
his report on the sanitary condition
OF the diaries of Minneapolis. The re-
port gives the result of the depart
ments investigation Of a large num-
Der of diaries, and shows conclusive
ly that tuberculosis has existed to an
alarming degree among many herds of
COWS. The commissioner says there
are hundreds of dairies that are fit for
nothing but breeding places for dis
eased germs, and that the public
health has been seriously endangered
by this condition of affairs. The de-
partment, says DR.. Avery, has been
powerless to act as the authority to
inspect the diaries was vested in the
state dairy commission, which dis
charged its functions in a very super
fetal manner. Concerning the pre-
valence of tuberculosis, it's prevention
and cure, the commissioner has much
to say, the most startling statement
being that the disease is easily COM
municated from cattle to human be-
ings. He asks that an ordinance be
passed, giving the health department
jurisdiction over local dairies The
communication was referred to the
committee on health and hospitals,
