A Satisfactory Arrangement.

The slumberous sloth hung upside down
From bough of the twigsome tree,
And through the forest on pointed toes
Came the spinsive spideree.
She climbed the trunk In trice and cried:
"Now, here is a chance for mel
I will weave my web without more ado
'Twixt the sloth and the twigsome tree"
A line she tied TO the sleeper's nose,
And she toiled from ten till three,
And the sloth awoke with a snort and saw
The work Of the spiderB.
He watched her feast on a tangled fly
And capture a bumblebee.

One of the latest ideas in the shape Of o
blouse is intended for the benefit of women
addicted to rowing, tennis and other ath-
letic sports. 1t Is a modification of the
old jersey style and consists of bodice of
seamless stockinet, which is untrimmed
and fastens with small pearl buttons un-
der the left arm. The ample sleeves are
also of stockinet, but are Of a different
color from the corsage. A draped satin
collar and waistband finish the garment.
Flowers and lace are the favorite trim
ming for summer gowns Ecru or yellow
lace on white linen or batiste Is extremely
fashionable, while flowers outline the yoke

SAN FRANCISCO June 2.--The steam
er Belgc came in today from Hongkong
and y Yokohama. She brought news of
the sealing fleet in japanese waters.
From reports of the masters of the sealers
it appears that although the weather has
been favorable SO far few seals have been
taken. Disaster has followed the seal
fleet and more than one boats crew has
been reported as lost.
The Emma Lewis, with Captain Alex
ander Mclean in command, called at
Hakodate with SIX of the crew of dis
masted japanese schooner on board. The
rescued men said their vessel was wrecked
about three hundred niles off the land
and that they had remained by the dis
mantled hull untilspicked up. For ten
days they had been with out food and
water. The Emma Lewis reported losing
three of her boats while sealing. One OF
them was afterwards picked up by the
Therese, another was reporte d as being
safe on the schooner Bonanza, but the
crew of the third had not been heard
from when the Belgic sailed and it was
thought they had been lost.

SANTA ROSA, June Mrs. Della
Steigler. formerly of Los Angeles, was
arrested here this afternoon on a warrant
from that city charging her with obtain
ing money under ia lse prenteses.
She is a very handsome young woman
and claims to be innocent OF any wrong
doing. A few weeks ago she came here
and complained that her husband was
wanted in Los Angeles By the police.
Officers wired there and found he was not
wanted but that she was. She says she
has no relatives here but has friends in
San Francicso.
The above dispatch dated June 1st,
was withheld from imm ediate epublica-
tion. that certain plans of the local police
might have a few more hours for develJ Jp-
ment. The husband accomplice has been
located and his arrest is imminent De-
tective Frank II. Steele is en- route to
Santa Rosa to bring back the fair
swipdler to the scene OF her crimes
The amounts involved do not make her
crimes of great magnitude but circum-

piano said to have been brought down
from San Francisco, was secured from

She is a very prepossessing young wo-
man and by Il crafty exercise of her
charms she succeeded in bypnotizing
CLERKS of the various establishments
mentioned into succumbing before her

work was rather raw for the sharp
