With silent awe we hail the sacred morn,
Which slowly wakes while all around is
still.

A graver movement curbs the rivers Will;
And echo answers softly from the hill.
And softly. smiIlngly, the day is born,
The strident speech of man becomes less

The gulls float silent by in airy droves
The sun placid yellow lustre shone;
The gales. that yestreen lashed Pacifc's

Have hushed their fearful sound and are

The lowering rack of clouds forgets to

So smiled the day
When the first morn arose.

A STUDY IN FRUIT.

She's canning fruit.
An apron large-all purple stained and
red
Almost envelops her from head to foot.
Her sleeves are rolled, her dainty wrists
are bare;
a pure white cap adorns her golden hair
Which, with her cheeks ahame-eyes
bluely gray,
Completes a picture that-what shall
say?--
That's simply cutel
She's canning fruit
This week. She's making jam, and jelly
too,
And watermelon pickles, just a few.
She stirs and tastes. and tastes and stirs
to tell
When things are done, and makes the
jelly 'jell"
Just grand! And all in ALL it's quite an
art,
For some things must be sweet and
others tart
All tastes to suit
She's canning fruit.
Preserves Of almost every kind she's
made,
And now has started in on marmalade!
And as T watch her to my heart there
comes
A fragrance sweet-born not of cooking
plums.
But burning love! I've this regret, you
see,
That Dorothys not canning fruit for me

Mr.. c. J. Curtis has not waited ver,
long after election to distinguish himself
this time using his official capacity ai
deputy district attorney TO vent his pri,
vate spleen against an honorable ant
law-abiding citizen The Chinese Rob
berry Case" TO which we have before re,
ferred. was dismissed by Mr. Curtis som,
days ago, and Williams and Manning
the two prizeGghttrs who were accused OF
the theft land who many people belleye
were guilty. have been enabled to leave
the country. Allowing time enough tc
elapse for them TO get safely away, Mr.
Curtis, ascertaining that public sentiment
was throwing cut some very nasty hints
about his action in dismissing the pro-
against Professor Thomas Spencer, who
was on the boat with forty or fifty Others
at the time OF the robbery. The case
was heard yesterday and dismissed with
out the defendant being put to the nc
cessity of opening his mouth in his own
defense. The Chinaman denied ever hav-
ing seen Mr. Spencer on tho boat, and
stated emphaticaly that he had never
approached near to him or moested him
in any way on the trip
Yesterday morning. when Mr.. Curtis
was asked why he brought the charge
against Spencer, he replied that tho
prosecuting witness had done IT, The
prosecuting witness swore that he had
not that he did not even know Spencer
by name or by sight
Mr.. Curtis brought the charge himself,
and brought 1t because he knew that at
the late city' election Professor Spencer
had worked hard and well for the sue
cess of his opponent for the office of city
attorney. Such contemplate work meets
with the condemnation of every honest
man.

The present low temperature, whether It
brings physical exhllaratlon or depression
Is a fact of which everyb 1dy must be
keenly conscious, and therefore the we'll
to-do should be reminded by 1t of the
suffering which 1t will cause to those less
fortunately placed Industrial conditions
are much better than they were a year
ago, yet many deserving persons are stln
without regular work. and doubtless there
are many more whose reserve funds have
been exhausted by enforced idlencss and
who are consequently III prepared to
meet the extra demands of unusually cold
weather. 1t is the season of good wishes
and generous impulses. Happily, also, 1t
Is the season of concerted measures for
the relief of destltutlon and the diffusion
of happiness. We wish well to Astorla's 3
dlsinterested activities of charitable
nature, for though In many instances
they may not be conducted without con-
siderable waste of effort and money. the
least methodical of them do nevertheless
unquestlonably accomplish some good, en-

benevolence of individuals to whose social
instincts they especially appeal

The following resolution abrogating the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty, concluded April
1850 has been introduced into the house
by Mr.. Binger Hermann, of this state:
Whereas, the treaty concluded between
the United States and Great Ri itain

nicaton between the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans by the way of the river San Juan
de Nicaragua and through Nicaragua, or
any part of Central America and COM
monty known as the G ayton- Bulwer trea-
ty, has long since failed to accomplish
the purpose for which 1t was designed,
to wit, the construction of said canal,
but Is now an obstacle to such accom-
plishment and n source of international
misunderstanding; and
Whereas, new conditions have since
arisen on the Pacific Coast creating new
responsibilities between the general gov
ernment and the states and territories
there since established, which may be-
come seriously affected by the restrlc-
tions contained in said treaty; and
Whereas the present interests of this

paramount to those of any other nation

HOW IT COMES ABOUT.


The Astorian has been asked to state in
the clearest possible manner the real sit
uation concerning Venezuela as at pres
ent exists. The difficulty that has arisen
between the two great English speaking
powers is not, by any means, compllcat-
cd. The facts are these. Great Britain
has a colony In South America whose
western boundary is contemporaneous
with the eastern boundary OF Venezuela.
There has for some time been n dispute
between Guiana, or rather Great Britain.
and Venezuela as to the boundary be-
tween tho colony and the republic. There
is strip of territory which is claimed by
both. SO far the dispute has been a
peaceful one. The Venezuelen govern
ment 1t is true seized some British con-
stables and held them In durance for a
short time. but II has acknowledged that
mistake was committed and expressed
willingness to make reparutlun.
During the progress OF the boundary
dispute the government OF the United
States has interposed It's good offices and
recommended the two countries to refer
the matter to arbitration Great Britain
has declined to accept the advice OF the
United States with regard to territory
which she claims 10 have possessed ever
since the conquest of Guiana. But she
is willing to submit her claim to part Of
the disputed territory to arbitration.
Now the president of the United States
declares that as Great Britain has not
submitted its dispute with Venezuela to
arbitration the United States will run
the line between British Guiana and Ven
ezuela and viii treat Great Britain as an
enemy II 1t exercises acts of ownership
over territory which the United States
surveying commission decides belongs to
Venezuela.
That is the real condition Of affalrs at
the present moment

The Eureka burns any kind OF gas

one can obtain very brisk fire which
will last thirty hours without being stirr-

coal. Hence an economy of coal, work
and money.
The Eureka Economizer produces heat
