COPYRIGHT, 1851

Close upon Prof. Roentgen's sensa-
'rional discovery, D. E. Packer, of South
birmingham, England, announces an
other that has much similarity to it,
though the cathode rays of which it
treats proceed from that great reser-
voir of electric energy-the sun. Mr..
Packer has, since July last, been pho
tographing the suns corona in broad
daylight. The results of this .photog-
raphy are said to be SO remarkable that
Mr.. Packer has withheld them from the
public till this late date that he might
test them thoroughly; and it is not
until now, when he is convinced that his
discovery is a real one, that he makes
announcement of it to his brother
astronomers.

eclipses, when it shines out in soft, sill

the moon as she crosses the suns disk.

FROG AND TOAD JONAHS,
Yarns Accepted Not Without Doubt by
 Amateur Naturalists

Yarns Accepted Not Without Doubt by
 Amateur Naturalists.
 Most persons when they hear natur- aiist tell about peculiar doings by birds, animals, or reptiles grin and ask about big fish. One tale, which no one but naturalists seems to believe, was told in the Forest and Stream recently by Allen Chamberlain. He says he heard a cry down in Florida such as distressed frog makes and found that blacksnake was swallowing a frog. When the frog was out of sight the snake was shot through the head and the frog was liberated. At first it was stupefed, but was soon as lively as ever. Within 20 years the same paper has recorded at least a score of just such instances, reported by as many indi- viduals, who gave their real names and addresses, and who declared they had seen the stupefed toad or frog come to as from trance, hop about as if dazed, and at last go away as lively as ever.
 s. D. Kendall, in the Forest and Stream for June, 1892, told about a mother quail which in trying to protect her young got within reach of rattle snake. The snake was killed in the act of swallowing the bird. When re- leased the bird was for some time stu pefed, but after awhile recovered enough to stagger off. On the next day she was all right and caring for her chicks.

Army Boards Rigid Inspection Discour-
 ages South Dakota Breeders.
 John D. Hale, of Tilford, one of the most prominent stockmen in South Da- kota, some months ago received the con- tract for furnishing the Eighth caval- ry at Fort Meade with some 70 or 80 horses. Notwithstanding that he visit ed practically every prominent horse ranch in western South Dakota, eastern Wyoming and southeastern Montana ill the effort to secure horses that would pass the rigid inspection, every horse so far turned in for inspection has been rejected. The horses were the very best that could be procured, experience hav- ing shown them to be the hardest ami mals to be found in the United States. Some of the horses could not be pur- chased on the range or in the markets of Chicago and New York for $25O each. MT. Hale says he offered one man $500 for team of handsome grays, provided they passed the inspection. The ami mals were submitted, but, while the board admitted that they were a fine looking pair, they were declared not suitable for cavalry. Horse raisers are discouraged at the result and say that any board that holds strictly to the re- quirements of the government in the se- lection of cavalry horses would not be able to get enough horses in the whole United States to mount one cavalry regiment.

AT THE THEATERS

Los ANGELES THEATEI.-A brilliant pro-
duction of Verdi's grand and exqusitely
beautiful opera, Aida, is promised tonight
at the Los Angeles theater by the Tavary
Opera company, which Manager Pratt
claims is the best in it's coterie of artists,
it's splendidly drilled chorus, and perfect
grand orchestra, that he has ever carried
through the country. The company has
everywhere been received with the greatest
enthusiasm, and a week of perfect enjoy
ment in listening to the greatest musical
gems of our great composers will be real
ICED by the devotees to opera in this city.
Nine. Tavary, who gave us sufficient evil
dence last year of her great artistic ability,
both really and dramatically. will be heard
in some of her best roles. Her voice this
season is singularly soft and beautiful, and
the heavy dramatic parts in which she will
appear this week will display her abilities
to most excellent advantage. She will be
heard tonight in the title role of Verdi's
Albert L. Guile, the favorite little
French tenor, will appear tonight as
Radames, one of his favorite roles; all
Los Angeles worships at the shrine of the
great art of which Mons. Guile is the true
exponent. Special interest attaches to the
appearance of Mr.. Guile in the role of
Radames, as he has sung this part at the
grand opera. Paris, under the direction of
Verdi himself, the third time it was given
in Paris. Seller, the tenor who created
the part Radames, was taken ill the after
the second performance and Verdi would
have no other tenor but Guile to imper-
senate the role, and complimented him
most highly after the second act. His
voice is more beautiful than ever, and he
is the most intense tenor on the stage.
! Nine. Thea Doree, the popular mezzo-so-
prano. will be heard as Amneris and will
no doubt receive warm welcome The
new English baritone will appear as
Amonasro; Sig. Abramoff, the base, will
be heard as Ramphis; Nine. Romani, c.

One Orange at Work

As farmers would receive the greatest
benefit from good roads, it is clearly to
their interest to secure them. Inc END
cannot be accomplished without co-opera-
ton. In the Patrons of Husbandry is found
the best opportunity for cffectng it. The
Tulare grange has arrived at this conclu-
sion. At meeting held recently in Visalia
it took earnest ground, determining to be-
gin its efforts at the proper place. the
board of supervisors, which is charged by
law with the duty of making good roads
and which generally pays nothing like in
telligent attention to the obligation.
Two particularly interesting features OF
the meeting were the report of the COM
mittee appointed to draft resolutions and
the other the resolutions themselves. The
report pointed out the great trouble over
road making, 1t said: ''All farming COM
munities desire good roads, but whenever
this subject is broached they are prevented
from moving by the estimates of cost.
These are generally secured from local
civil engineer, whose practical education
in country road building is no better than
the farmers; but he gives figures based
on technical knowledge derived from text
books or with some experience in railroad
building, and these are 80 very large that
the farmers are frightened and prefer bad
roads to taxation that will deprive them of
their farms.'
1t goes on to say that greenhorns invari-
ably prate of stone, ignorant of the fact
that far better material exists in abund-
ance and car be employed at compara-
lively triflipg cost. Among them are natu-
raj cement and hardpan.
The resolutions were deservedly severe.
They declare that "when public offices are
used to serve ends other than the public
benefit, or are entrusted to persons who
are not apt TO give to the public the best
obtainable SERVICE" our government fails.
1t charges that the public funds are di-
verted from public needs to private pur-
poses, and then directly demands that the
board of supervisors of the county make
and maintain good public roads.
Thus the two hindrances to the construc-
ton of good roads are squarely hit. One is
ignorance concerning road making and the
other is inefficiency and rascality on the
part of public officers. This tells the whole
story of bad roads in California.
Such a condition of affairs would never
exist if the people would exercise ordinary
intelligence and reasonable regard for
their duties as citizens. Bad roads means
bad politics. The Patrons of Husbandry
can easily avail themselves of the informa-
ton which the state bureau Of highways is
prepared to give, and can just as easily
elect worthy citizens to administer the af-
fairs of the counties. Intelligent co-opera-
ton will win the whole fight.-San Fran

The action, or rather inaction, of the
United States senate relative to the
financial legislation needed by the
country will contribute great deal of
force to the plea in favor Of an sboli-
tion of that body. 1t is altogether too
deliberative. In fact it is obstructive.
AS the Kansas City Star says:
No institution in America is in such great
need of complete reformation as the SEN
ate of the United States. 1t will continue
10 be stumbling block in the way of good
government and of wise legislation until a
large part of it's present membership shall
have been retired to private life and its
rules of action radically changed.
1t is unpleasant to make such criticism.
One would much rather hold in high re.
spect the institutions of ones country. But
one canr.ot escape the truth that the senate
of the United States has entirely lost The
respect of the people.
