ONE HUNDRED YEARS HENCE
A Sample of Items That May BE Head
in the Newspapers Of 1890.

in the Newspapers OF 1890.
A horse, an animal said TO have once
been quite common in our city streets,
was seer In the city yesterday. He
attracted much curiosity and be was
followed wherever he went by I'M
mense crowds. 1t Is almost impossible
to believe that our ancestors could have
trusted their lives to so formidable
a creature. It Is understood that the
animal escaped from the Equine Food
Abatoir in Brighton.
An almost unprecedented event hap
pened In this city last evening, when
Mr.. and Mrs. John Brownsmith cele-
brated the anniversary Of their mar
rage. The Brownsmiths were married
q year ago. It Is quite remarkable for
a couple to live 30 long together In the
STATE of wedlock, and their celebration
naturally drew to their residence q
dense throng Of admiring friends. Con-
gratulations were poured upon the
happy pair with wishes that they might
cdltinue together long enough to OBJ
r the second anniversary of their
wedding.
The directors Of the Eurip.des Manu-
featuring Company have been convict
ed Of the charge of failure to examine
into the accounts Of their treasurer and
have s%everally been sentenced to i'm
prisonment in the State prison for a
term Of five years. Their counsel ar
gued that inasmuch as the treasurers
accounts, as shown by expert examina-
ton, were faultless during his ten years
Of service and that no suspicion had
ever fallen upon him. the sentence
should be lighter, but the court very
justly remarked that the offense was
the same as II the result had been &C.
we're loss to the stockholders.
1t was curious to see a pedestrian In
Washington street to-day. the first one
that has been seen In this city for many
years. He ~Occasioned no small amount
Of vexatiOn to the unicycllsts, In whose
way he was continually getting. There
can be no objection to people walking
in their W houses or In the country
where there is plenty Of room. but 1t is
clearly out Of the question that the
practice should be permitted In our
crowded city streets.
A man appeared on the street dressed
In trousers and cutaway coa yester-
day. He was promptly arrested and
carried to the station house. When he
lei made his appearance be had
donned the petticoats and other gar
ments appropriate to his sex.

ColiforniO Must Remain q Gold state.
California was a gold state when 1t
was admitted and has remained q gold
state since. None Of its debtors has
anything to gain by q radical change Of
standard, not even the banks, which,
under q silver standard. would DO able
TO pay all depositors 30 cents on the dol.
lar. The arrangement Of business and
temporary destruction Of credit that
would result from such o change would
probably break most Of the banks in
California. including perfectly solvent
institutions. Los Angeles Herald

is a likelihood that when the autumn

would otherwise be the case, and the

Concerning the charges made

mittee found them to be groundless
For instance:
"In regard to the matter of Speak

House started to consider the Indian
appropriation bill, we would state
that they went into committee of
the whole, and while that is done it
is the rule that the Speaker shall
leave his chair and chairman is
chosen for that time.
