Pleasure in California.

During the winter months the resi-
dents of the Eastern States make the
best of forbidding conditions and
amuse themselves in various ways by
large expenditure of energy. They
work hard, but they have sport They
must be careful to avoid the numer-
Gus dangers with which very cold
weather surrounds them. All of their
efforts at amusement are a struggle
against forbidding and uncongenial
aspect of nature. They simply create
all the pleasure they get; nature, in
stead of helping them, presents a
constant protest against their pleas
ure. During these same months the
visitor in California simply has to sit
down and enjoy more pleasure than
his most active efforts could have Sc
cured in the Eastern States; and if he
wants to double the pleasure which
mere inactivity affords, he can do so
with the least possible exertion. At
all times he has abundant sunshine in
California, for the rainy days are few
and short, and there is neither snow
nor ice to make him prisoner. Flow
ers bloom increasingly in the garden,
and fresh fruits are always at hand.
Watermelons and strawberries grace
his Christmas dinner
All along the coast of California the
summers are cold enough to make
wooden clothing comfortable. In the
Eastern States the wretched inhabi-
tant wears the thinnest of clothing
and then suffers from the heat. The
Californian goes camping or strolling
through the woods with no fear of a
drenching, for the California summers
are rainless. The mountain scenery
is of infinite variety and unapproach-
able majesty and beauty. Large and
elegant hotels abound at all the sea-
side resorts. Splendid vineyards and
orchards exist everywhere, and the
most gorgeous wild flowers abound.
All the most beautiful resorts and
wlld retreats of California are reached
by the lines of the Southern Pacific

the company will give information on

A remarkable fact, says the New
York Sun. developed at this years
gathering Of the Grand Army of the
Republic, at Louisville, is that a
great increase in membership over
last year is shown. The organiza
ton, one might almost say, is renew
ing it's youth The current official
report, if we do not mistake its fig
ures, shows the enormous gain of
1000 members in good standing
during the year, or over eleven per
cent And this gain, too, has been
secured with the large loss by death
of 7 ,36S; for losses from this source
become very heavy as the years go
on.
Several years ago even the Grand
Army itself accepted the idea that
it had come to its climax. The sta
tisticai officer in 1892 noted that
practically it may be said that the
membership of the Grand Army is
now at its highest point. 1t no doubt
will remain about the above numbers
Tor few years to come, when neees-
sarily it must decrease, and the de
crease will be rapid" At that time
the number of members in good
standing, reckoned at the beginning
of 1892, was 407, ISL, and since that
the prediction has justified itself by
successive fallings off in the num-
Der. On the following year, for ex-
ample, there was a falling off of
1000 names. But now a remarkable
turn in the tide is observed, and a
total of 414, 500 members is noted,
which is a very heavy gain.
There are still many Union sur.
viyors Of the war who do not belong
to the Grand Army, and these con
tinue to afford recruiting ground
for it. Perhaps extra efforts have
been made during the last year to
secure them. OF course, sooner or
later, even with such exertions, the
ebb must come; but meanwhile the
unexpected influx, with its sign of
renewed and vigorous vitality, makes
congratulations to the famous socie

Increased Railway Speed.
Robs Confinement oil lis Pain, Horror and Risk.

Sixty six years ago George Steph
enson won a prize with locomotive
capable of drawing twenty tons at
the rate of ten miles an hour
His locomotive was afterwards i'm
proved SO that it would make thirty
miles an hour The speed of loco
motives on the New York Central is
seventy miles an hour and it is plain
that steam locomotives can make 100
miles an hour as easily as seventy,
while it is claimed that so miles 40
hour under favorable conditions is
possible for an electric road. The
New York Recorder saws:
Few persons fully realize what
speed of seventy miles an hour means.
Two trains passing each other, both
running at this speed, and both be
ing seventy yards long, would flash
by in single second, making no de-
finite impression on the eyes of their
respective passengers
In round number seventy miles
an hour equals l05 feet per second.
If thirty five stakes were driven by
the side of the road one yard dis
tant from each other they would all
pass Il passengers eye between two
ticks OF watch. If the stakes were
painted bright red they would APP
pear to him simply continuous flash
of red. In short, seventy miles an
hour is pace too fast to allow the
objects on the side of the road To be
distinguished
The flight of a cannon ball is at
the rate of 6, 700 feet in quarter of
a minute, or 800 miles per hour. A
railway train travelling seventy mics
an hour, has, therefore, nearly one
fourth of the velocity of cannon
ball, which flies faster than the eve
can follow.
If, as the electrical savants are
saying, $50 miles an hour is the com
ing pace, the saving of time will
amount in the twentieth century to
doubling of the length of their
lives to all persons occupied 10 tray
cling.
Few people desire to see our trains
run at the topmost speed of which
they are capable. Everything is too
fast anyhow in this rapid age. We
need a slower pace instead of a
lightning like rush. Our travellers
should at least have time to catch
their breath between stations.

tAhtOAIS
1.'p a red speck, like tinge
- fresh blood, and thereby hangs a
strange legend.
The apple obtains its name from
Micah Rood, farmer v bio lived up
on the ontlands of the Connecticut
town in the eighteenth century. The
son of Thomas Rood, one Of Nor
wick's early settlers, Micah, titled
his fertile acres with all the zest of
youthful ambition
But of sudden his habits
changed; he grew idle, restless and
Incorporate He lost all interest
in both work and worship. His cat
tie were neglected and his neighbOrs
Stunned. Some attributed this
change to witchcraft; others limited
at insanity.
Winter wore away, spring return
ell and the orchard of Micah Rood
burst into blossom. On one tree, it
was then observed, the flowers had
turned from white to red. The su-
perstitious neighbors wondered, es
pecially as Rood seemed drawn to
this tree by some resistless fascina-
tion. August came and the red
blossoms developed into fruit. When
the large yellow apples fell from the
branches each one was found TO con
tain well defined globule, known
thereafter as "the drop Of blood"
The freak Of the apple tree deep
ened the mystery of Mieah's be
havior. Conjecture followed surmise,
and it was soon remembered that
during the previous fall foreign
peddler bad passed through Nor
witch, and had spent the night at
Micah Foods. He had never been
seen again. Someone suggested that
she young farmer had murdered him
for his money and buried his body
under the apple tree,
Search was made for the body OF
the stranger, but in vain; nor was
any trace of his stock found among
the possessions Of the unhappy Mi
cab | load of crime rested upon
the conscience Of the suspected farm
er it never forced a confession from
his lips. His farm drifted gradual
" to decay, and, too broken to re
claim it, he wandered about town,
disordered in mind and body.
He died in 1928, but while the
blood spotted apple continues tc
grow his name and history will be
perpetuated.
