SUNDAY At SAUSAL|TO,
Boating, Fishing, Hunting and
Other Recreation in the
Sunshine.
The Street improvements in Pro-
gress and in Near Contem-
plation.

Sausalito was the playground yesterday
for hundreds of San Francisco people.
The smooth waters of the bay were dotted
with yachts and other smaller sailing craft
and launches, and the decks were covered
with fishermen and their families. A
number of gunners came down from the
hills TO catch the evening boats. They
were more heavily laden with WEAKNESS
than with game. Others enjoyed rides
over the hills in carriages and few bikes
were wheeled to San Rafael.
The citizens have been talking OF "a
Night in Venice; not the one witnessed
in Belvedere lately, but one of their own,
to be given this fall, while the weather is
in its most delightful mood. The pictur-
sequences of location and the entire free
dom from heavy fogs and rough water in
the Sausalito side of that arm of the bay
make the plan feasible one. The scheme
is backed by J. B. Stetson, president of the
North Pacific Coast Railway Company.
Mr.. Stetson's proposition to be made to
the Town Trustees to build up that por
ton of Water street which extends from
FL Monte lane to the county road will be
acted upon at special meeting of the
Town Trustees early this week.
Ernest Mccullough, Town Engineer,
speaking of the street improvements said:
Inc prOpOSltlon Oh MI. SJeJSonS does not al
present appear to be able to secure suf-
fieient number of property-owners to sign his
protest against the continuance of the work by
the town. Another feature of Mr.. Stetson' s
plan that has caused some discussion, If not
dissension, is that he proposes that the side
walk shall be on the hillside OF the road,
while some prefer it to be on the side next the
fence.
That portion of the street presents in the
rainy season an impossible roadway. 1t
SC NV hn Mr OF
sons plan that it will be wiser to improve
it by macadamizing Immediately to pre-
pare it for the fall rains than to undertake
more extensive work that may not be COM
pleted in time.
We shall improve the residence streets
in time. But the water front is now de-
handing especial attention. The pictur-
esqueness of the residence streets should
be preserved when the work OF improve
ment is contemplated.

ring to the Altrurian plan, said with some
severity:
Brother Payne, you should confne
yourself to the preaching of your views,
and let your congregation carry them out
if they will. Are you not getting pretty
deep in social problems?"
Eyes, I am in way up to my chin
already" was the laughing reioinder, but
said so sweet-spiritedly that it was lmpos-
sible to take offense.
No one who is personally acquainted
with Mr.. Payne can doubt that this move
on his part is the outcome of much prayer
full consideration; nor is it possible to meet
the young men who form the majority in
Altruria-young men who remind one OF
Hugo's heroes, so splendid is the purpose
in their eyes-without realizing that his
followers have hardly given less thought
to ways and means to solve the problem OF
how industries can be controlled by the
people so that every man who wishes to
work can be assured that he shall not come
to want.
The sunday of our visit to Altruria hap
pened to be one included in Mr.. Payne S
vacation, which he is spending here. A
morning service was held out OF doors
under a central oak where the devoted
band-all refined people with shining
faces-gathered in good time to hear what
this reverend gentleman termed "a SER
monette something easy to write and easy
to listen to-" As there was no organ or
choir a meadow lark in the weeds
nearly burst its throat with doxology,
after which every soul present was thrilled
by the reading of the prayer written by
Robert Louis Stevenson on the Sunday
before his death. The lines, nobly in

angels of good which occasionally comes
into every human mind to stir the waters
in the pool of thought. Whenever this
occurs, whenever memory brings to you
the sting of remorse for duty upper
formed, whenever present vision presents
opportunity for the noble discharge of
obligations, whenever the voice of con-
science says thou must or thou oughtst'
80 to do, lo this is the troubling of the
waters, this now is the moment when i'm
potence can be transmitted into ability,
weakness into strength. 1t is for you to
rise, to hasten down and battle quickly in
the fountain of renewed purpose, that the
after days may be stronger and truer than
the former.
Another angel who stirs, too, in the
deep waters Of the human mind is the
Angel of Ideals. These ideals, these men
tally pictured standards by which to
measure ones self and ones attainments,
whenever they enter the mind, are as the
angels of God, who kindly trouble our
thoughts that they may quicken our slug
glsh life, inspire us to correct the hating
poem of our being.
Manifold are these angelic ministra-
tons. Perhaps some strain of music
sings new purpose into our souls, per-
haps the melody of some voice whose
actual cadences have long since ceased is
heard again through memory, challenging
US to do better, to be nobler; some single
word, great with significance, becomes
motto to us; some poem born of the vision
OF truth and beauty-these forms and
thousand others are assumed by the Angel
of Ideals.

Spiritually the blindness of man is per-

are thousand tokens which suggest that

now suspect.

nations, gathered together in the peace
Of this roof; weak men and women

when the day returns to us-our sun and

morning is that such fountain does

corresponds to the shadow. The pool of
moral healing which God has given to all
men to be restored withal, is the thought

he is constantly sending forth his angels
that they may stir the waters. When the
Apostle Paul appealed to the Romans to
be morally transformed. it was, as he says,
by the renewal of their minds This is
the uniform and only process by which
men improve as moral beings. There is
no magic about it, except the magic OF
thought with its power to put a new aspect
on familiar things and make that all i'm

spiritual Bethesda, whose waters work the
miracles of restoration and Transformation

other than the perpetual everspringing

point out this morning certain angels of
God who are forever troubling the waters
OF human thought to give them the heal

"The first is the Angel of Duty. The
junction which the idea of duty performs
is an angelic function. While it NAV not
be the highest it is certainly one of the
very loftlest of moral conceptions. The
perception of it is one of the distinctive
marks that separates man from ranges of
beings lower than he and unites him to
that which is higher. The OK, toiIine all
day IN the furrow, is not moved by sense
of duty. He is urged by the goad behind
him, drawn by the manger before him.
But man is so constituted that even when
there is nothing to correspond with the
goad and nothing to answer to the maneer
that is when he has no fear of evil conse-
quence or hope of advantage, will assume
the yoke and take up the wearying task

Two old Flowers Again in Favor.

Two quantity named ANIMALS that once
were commonly known in old-fashioned
gardens have recently made the appear

florists catalogue these as new plants, but
they simply have new markings and fairer
forms. the result of cultivation and n.y.
bridizing. In reality they are the same
old beauties found in the dear old gardens.
They are now known under the botanical
names of Nemophila and Nigella. In the
old gardens the Nemophila was called Love
in the Grove; it is also known by the name
OF Baby Eyes-and this name more than
any other gives an idea of its dainty love-
Illness.
This plant is one of the best hardy an
nuals introduced from California. 1t is
especially fine when grown as border
fresh and attractive for long time after
opening. Its botanical name, Nemophelia,
means exactly the same as the old-fash-
Toned name, Love in the Grove, as it is
derived from nemos, a grove, and phlleo,
to love; and in order to be successful in
their culture it will be necessary to give
the plants the same situation as found in
their original homes-the groves. The hot
sun will soon injure them, but they will
bloom beautifully all through July, and
even later in the summer, if they are given
moist, shady location. The plants grown
from seed sown in the early spring are just
beginning to send up their dainty BIOS
SONS now, and If other seed are started in
the early fall they will produce fine winter
blooming plants.
The Nigella is another 'love-breathing
plant" as its common name is Love-in-
the-Mist. Like the Nemophila, this also
has another name by which it was COM
monty known when grown in old-fash-
Toned gardens. But this is the harsh
sounding name of Devil-in-the-B Bush. Its
delicate beauty gives no suggestion as to
why this name should ever have been
given to it. Its curious flowers are very
snowy and beautiful, and its finely cut
foliage also makes the plant especially at
tractive. This plant is a native of Europe,
and although it has been in cultivation for
long time In this country special care on
the part of the florists has added fresh at
fractions and several varieties unknown in
its native country, and the flowers that
have been bursting into bloom during the
past week have attracted widespread at

Two eolored teams, the Assemblys OF

played an exciting game of baseball at
Central Park yesterday afternoon. Among
the spectators were q large representation
of the colored residents OF the City.
The game was closely contested, and was
won by the Assemblys by the score of 8 to

score stood at 9 to 8, with three men
Baker, Reid and White-to bat. Baker
and Reid were retired without adding to
the score, and all the hopes of the o KS
were conferred in White, but he also failed
to score, and the Assemblys and their
friends went wild with excitement. Hats
and coats were thrown in the air and some
of the enthusiasts danced with joy.

To WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
Take notice that the Probate
Judge of Custer county, has filed
at the Government Land Office
on 160 acres of land for the Town
site of Challis, and that by the
first day of 'Januray. 1896. the
said land must be paid for, which
requires about 1925, and this
amount should be raised by the
present property owners of
Challis, in advance, in order that
payment may be made to the
Land Office. The committee
have therefore levied $3.50 per
lot of 80 feet by 100 feet now
held by the owners. If each
owner will kindly pay his share
of said fund. we will give him a
receipt for the amount paid, and
the said receipt will be accepted
by the Probate Judge of Custer
county as payment for title and

ty. Please forward the money

to bear a large portion of the
burdens, occasionally we draw
on Bill Reeves or Walton, of the
AdUomce. At Blackfoot there is
kind entertainment at the Idaho
hotel-fair rates, good beds and
good meals, besides Mr.. and Mrs.
Morrison. the proprietors, are
always courteous. Just the place
to go for comfort and reasonable
prices.
The brethren at Bellevue prov
ed the most prompt of all. In
two hours after our first move,
they more than a sufficient num-
Der to organize Temple. And
in another time of equal extent
they were organized SO that they
will go right on. Bellevue has
always been faithful in the great
cause.
Shoshone was not free enough
from holiday preparations to al
low time for establishing Tenn
pie, but as business is rather on
the improve and there is a reas-
enable number of faithful sup
porters of silver, we are conf
dent of a good Temple later on.
In fact, there are no places, when
they come to see our mission
that are not going to join in the
good work, except those who
love party better than country.
We regret to say we find few
of these misguided or badly or
ganized men. But such are far
more traitor than patriot.
At Pocatello, Mr.. Whittier,
who is an organizer, had not
succeeded in getting a Temple:
but with a little effort we estab-
lished a nice one, and all seemed
to enjoy it very much, and have
hopes of great success. This
will give him more courage.
There is a good field in that part
of the State and we look for this
Temple to be of greatest moment
of any in the State.
Blackfoot is doing well; it has
had a favorable business season,
but we had 10 time to enlist there
in the silver labor. The main
improvement in this place has
been a bank built by G. Bunting
& Co. They have just com plet-
ed the walls and roof, ready for
inside finish, that surpasses fny-
thing in the State. 1t is built OF
rock The basement is of lava.
1t is heated from the basement,
and has provisions, in way of de-
partments, for every branch of
merchandise and banking. The
store front is most entirely of
immense plate glass and the top
finish is in excellent taste of
light colored rock, while the
whole bank front is of a heavier
looking rock. This will be alb
solutely fire proof. There is
nothing equal to this in Idaho,
and perhaps none OF the new
States for the work contemplat-
ed. 1t is pleasure to see such
fine advancement. There was
no snow at Blackfoot on our de-
parture; but it increased at Arco
and the Island it was a foot in
depth. AT the Narrows, how
ever, we had to take again to
wagons. Weather was rough
and severe and so we tarried at
Mr.. Pearson's for rest and more
favorable journeying.
