The trial Of Mrs. Fleming entered upon the
fifth week Of its progress yesterday. The prin"
cipal witness called was little Florence King,
who accompanied Mrs Fleming's daughter to
the home Of Mrs. Bliss on the day the latter was
poisoned. The girl testified that they were
sent by Mrs. Fleming with clam chowder ana
pie to take to Mrs. Bliss. A sensation was
caused when. In reply to a question, Florence
said that when she and Oracle returned to the
hotel Mrs. Fleming said to her daughter: Il

COST OF THE ARMY.

The report of the Secretary of War
for all army fertilization and sea coast
expenses and for rivers and harbors for
the fiscal year ending June 80, 1896,
were $51 ,SO3, ,29S 62. OF this sum the
treatment and Improvement, aggre-
eating $17,S44, $50 As. The appropria-
tions for the year ending June 30, 1897,
are So, ,044 pa 20, and the river and
harbor item included in that is S15,-
963, ,45S 96. Thus, exclusive of the cost
of river and harbor Improvement, the
army cost for pay, transportation,
clothing, horses, arsenals, parks and
cemeteries, posts, artificial limbs, build
ings and grounds, Military School, SOL
diers' homes, Ordnance Department,
Quartermasters Department, fortifica-
tions and sea coast defenses, subslst-
ence, clothing, medical supplies ana
contingent expenses, on the basis or our
popula ton being 7O,OOO,OOO, has been
a little in excess of fifty and one-half
cents per head. There is not nation
on the face of the globe worthy of nota-
BILE consideration that supports the mil
itary arm Of the government at sucn
low cost; but, then, there is no other
nation of any considerable Importance
that maintains so small am army IN
proportion to the magnitude OF the
country and it's population. The es-
innate of expenditures for the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1898, is, exclusive
of river and harbor appropriations,
$40, ,440, ,169, so that the per capita wall
be somewhat larger. But in this esu-
mate the river and harbor approprla-
tions, which are taken out in our cal
culation, are cut down to less than three
and a half millions from nearly Sl6,-
100000, while the item Of Notifications
and sea coast defenses, which we IN
clude, is raised from seven and
quarter millions to fifteen and three
quarter millions of dollars.

set back the American cause, but we
cannot think. that it would have
crushed the spirit of the revoited col
onies. They would have rallied, and
the more quickly if he had been as
sassinated, and independence would
have been gained in the end.
But the death of Napoleon would
have turned the eagles Of France back
from conquest and have closed the am
bition Of his army. The loss of Well
ington, on the other hand. would not
have made Waterloo impossible. Ma
Geo may not be speedily replaced, but
it will not end the rebellion. The Gu
bans have lost other leaders and have
not tainted In the ten years war they
did not lack for new men as trusted
ones fell, and two notable overthrows
of their revolutions have not Quenched
the spirit of rebellion.

THE AMERICAN MILLINER.
One OF Them Encountered
in the Country.

The American milliner who used to be
such a well-known institution, even III
large cities, with her regular class OF
customers, for whom she made bonnetS
year in and year out, according to the
season, has almost completely disap-
peared. The great commercial houses
have captured that class of customers
who used to frequent her little shop. In
little country villages, however, far
from the madding crowd" she may still
be found, and a summer visitor" the
other day, just before her flight, found
one of these ancient ladies from whom
during the season she had often pur-
chased wells and ribbons, seated at a
sunny window at the back of the little
shop, busy with lot of bonnetS which
had been ordered for the winter.
Yes, L guess L trim every nat worth
visitors question. It's kinder comfort
able to have the Workers gone and to ST.
down on my rocker and to get to my
reg lar work. 1t requires a great deal of
thought to trim 50 many and make them
different. There are Presbyterian bon
nets and Methodist bonnets: and now
they've started up the Baptists, and
it'll be more mixing than ever, for l
carsent put the same ribbon on any two
bonnets for the same church. If 1 did
I'd never hear the last Of it.
Mrs. Foster, she played me a real
mean trick last year. She'd always been
steady Presbyterian, and when l
trimmed her bonnet l knew what pew
she'd sit in, and all about it. So [ fixed
it up with ribbon that I'd only used
once and that was on Methodist bon
net, and felt perfectly safe in my mind
about 1t. Not long afterward as L was
sitting here doing some sewing Deacon
Squires came in to buy some thread for
his wife. Did you hear the news?' he
said. Mrs. Josiah Foster has lined the
Methodists! / declare, you could have
knocked me over with a feather!
'HereN be rumpus, I said to myself,
for Mrs. Foster never could stand hav-
ing anything common. So, sure enough.
III she came the next Monday as mad as
a hornet

I've trusted You, Kesiah,' she said. that
you might have trimmed my bonnet

ORGANIZED LABOR.
Fresno Republican: There is unusual
activity in the ranks of organized labor
at present, which will be q good thing
il wisdom follows the strengthening
and unification. of the forces. SO long
as the formation of trusts and combines
is the prevailing method by which cap
ital operates, labor must protect its IN
terests by adopting the same methods.
In union is strength, but the experience
Of the capitalized combinations shows
that this strength is only effective when
exercised with discretion. Over-reach-
ing has proved the downfall of more
than one combination of capital, and
labor can profit by that experience.
THE TRAMP QUESTION.
Santa Cruz Sentinel: Some time the
tramp question will have to be settled
once for all, and the sooner it is done
the better for the public. The lazy,
greasy loafers who tramp about this
State are growing menace to the peace
of society and a never-ending annoy
ance and a bill of expense to the people
who work. Not one in a thousand Of
them is a worthy object of charity, but
they are continually fed, largely
through fear of the damage they may do
IL refused.
The law ought to compel every
Board of Supervisors to provide some
adequate means of taking care of them,
and of forcing them TO earn the bread
they eat, as honest men have to do. 1t is
no punishment to confine them in Jail,
but rather a pleasure to them at this
time of the year. The disgrace is noth-
ing, for they long ago lost all sense Of
shame.
A few spasmodic attempts have been
made in this county to put them to
work, but nothing has come of it as yet.
Nothing WILL perhaps, until the duty
become mandatory by law.
