THE ANGL0-OALIFORNIAN BANK

The union of English and Californian
interests for the purpose of doing local
commercial and foreign exchange bust
ness was the origin of the San Francisco
branch of the Anglo Californian Bank
(Limited), which was Incorporated April 5,
1873. The bank has contributed its share to
the development and prosperity of our
State as we'll as having achieved success
for itself. Since its organization it has
shipped immense quantities of bullion to
China, India and other foreign countries
The capital stock is S. 600, 900, of which
So, 100000 has been subscribed and 81, $780,
900 paid in. The last report of the Bank
Commissioners testifies to the prosperous
condition of the institution.
The headquarters of the bank are in
London, and the business in this City is
under the immediate control of Ignatz
Steinhart and P. N. Lilienthal. A. L.
Seligman is assistant cashier.
Following are the directors in London:
Isaac Seligman, E. H. Washington, Joseph
Sebag, J. Simon and FL. II. Fowler, MP
The high standing of the Anglo Califor-
MAN Bank in the financial world is due to
the wise management of these fnanciers.

IMMENs E EGGS OF THE EPIoRNIs
Specimens Now in Some of the Euro
pean Museums.

In the British Museum, London, the
museum of the Academy of Science at
Paris and the National Museum at
Vienna, and in the several institutions for
the advancement of science, there may be
seen specimens of birds eggs which are
almost as large as two-gallon jug.
These eggs are laid by the epiornis, an
extinct and gigantic bird of Madagascar
The cubic bulk of these eggs is eight times
that of the egg of 1.-The silly bird of the
Sahara which means that each of them
is equal in point of capacity to 150 hens
eggs.
This first discovery of these interesting
relics of past times was made by the cap
tain of a merchant vessel, which had
stopped at port on the northeastern
coast Of Madagascar to trade with the ma
tives. During the stay at this point men,
toned the curious vessels used by the ma
tives for water vases attracted the atten-
ton OF the captain.
Upon investigation it was found that
these old utensils were in reality gigantic
egg shells cut in halves. Upon question
ing the water-carriers in regard to the bird
that laid the eggs and the place where
they were procured, the captain was given
to understand that the bird itself was I'M
in large sand bank some distance away
in the up-country and conld not be found
elsewhere, to the knowledge of the natives.
An offer to purchase all that could be
procured soon resulted in the discovery of
several fine specimens, all of which fell
into the hands of Isadore G. st. Hilaire
the French naturalist. The curiosities
were afterward distributed among the
largest museums.-HartfordT Times.

SOME CURIOUS REWARDS.
Uncle Sans Postcfice Pays Only fol
Live Robbers.

Uncle Sans Postofice Pays Only for
Live Robbers.
Some very curious cases have been de-
cided by the law department of the Post
Office Department relating to rewards for
the capture CT robbers of postofices. Mr..
MiIliken has just rendered a decision
against a claimant at California, Mo-,
where a postoffice safe was robbed. In
such cases the department pays $500 ca CHI
for the conviction of the persons engaged
in the robbery. There were five persons
concerned in the affair, but the authori-
ties had no clew to the men. If hap
pened, however, that the guilty persons
were in saloon some time afterWard,
and one of them got into dispute with a
farmer and lively row ensued, in which
the farmer shot and killed the man. The
other men ran out, but were captured by
other persons, not because they were post
Office robbers, but because they were en-
gagged In the row.
It turned out on examination that the
man who was killed was the rlngleader OF
| the robbers and had the bulk of the booty
on his person. His death resulted in
proving completely in the robbery upon
| the other four men. The men who cap
| uured the four have been allowed $500.
The farmer made application for $500,
! but it is held that the reward being Of
fered for the "arrest and conviction" of
| the robbers he cannot be paid the amount.
| The dead robber was neither arrested nor
| convicted of the offense. Mr.. Milliken said
that it was rather hard luck, but under
tile law he could do nothing else.
He recalled case in Oklahoma where
there had been robbery and three noto-
rious desperadoes were pursued, and after
| fierce encounter one was killed, another
mortally wounded and the other captured.
| The dead 70 bier in this instance was the
leader, and had nearly all the stolen prop.
erty on his person.
| The Others were tried and convicted and
the wounded man died shortly afterward.
The reward of $500 was paid for tie cap.
ture of the two, but although Mr.. Mill
ken reported in favor of paying the
reward for the dead robber, it was found
not be in accordance with the law, and
was refused. Postoffice robbers must be
taken alive in order to secure rewards

By general request the popular Friday
Fortnightlys reconsidered their primary
decision to hol no meeting in Christmas
week, AMI the result was the very success
full cotillon of last nigh at Lunt's Hall.
There were several ether departures be-
sides having the dance on Thursday
evening. The most noticeable of the
pleasant innovations was the pretty deco
rations of the hall Christmas berries and
ferns and wreaths of holly, with here and
there spray of mistletoe, gave to the
pretty dance hall a decidedly holiday
aspect.
Then the hours were later and conse-
quently the beaux and bellies took the
unusual privilege at Fortnlghtly dance
of arriving little later.
Miss Genevieve Goad led the dancers
through the fascinating figures of the
german. In her pleasant duties she was
assisted by Addison Miner, Milton
Latham and Robert Eyre.
Miss Goad introd uced several figures,
among which were the hoop figure, the
Christmas tree and the wand and bells,
an original and extremely pretty figure.
1t was the first time that Miss Goad had
ever led cotiilon and at the conclusion
of the dance her friends overwhelmed her
with congratulations for the able manner
in which she acquitted herself.
The young ladies' of the first SCI included
M ISIS Jessie Hobart, Miss Mamie McNutt,
Miss Laura Scott, Miss Juliette Williams,
Miss Ethel Rodgers, Miss Kate Salisbury,
Miss Helen Hopkins and Miss Caro-
Crockett.
The next dance of the Fortnightlys will

cham bers and rent dingy offices. Poverty
is poor key to open the pockets of clients.
The Partisan parrister has personal inter-
views with his clients, and the direct con-
sequence OF these interviews Is that he
must be able to show them into nicely
furnished reception-room and private
Office, though he may sleep in a garrett.
He cannot we'll answer the bell himself.
hence he must employ servant, even if
he has no money with which to pay one.
The visitor must not see bare walls, con-
sequently there must be display of
well-stocked law library. The client will
not consider that lawyers library is
often q luxury, and that the barrsters
studies might just as we'll be pursued at
the st. Genevieve Library, but he must be
able to glance at SO many calf-bound vol
umes.
"Voltaire well SUM med up the essentials
OF q French lawyer when he said: An
advocate is a man who for three years
studies the laws of Theodosius and JUS
tinian in order TO learn the common law
of Paris, and who, having matriculated at
last has the right to plead for money,
provided he has strong voice, The only
is by adding that the modern French
client does not even expect to be asked
fee, although he requires just as much of
hi. advocate as they did in Voltaires
time. The youns practitioner does not
hint at such thing as retainer. least of
all ask for it. The regulations forbid it.
"Worst of all, the young barrister, once
inscribed on the rolls, has to pay
license. This is computed, not by the
amount OF money he may earn, but by the
rent of the apartment he occupies. The
result is that there are hundreds of impe-
cunious but worthy young men who can
not meet the charges. In France no
career is open to them after they have
wasted at least six years In the study of
law, excepting journalism and politics.
Forty per cent of the present Chamber of
Deputies are barristers, and that body in
consequence is sometimes alluded to as
the Palais de Justice burlesque. "-Roches-
