MISS LOIs PECKHANt.

San Jose, when hundreds Of acres Of
roses, blossoms by the ton and blushing
beauties by the score will be very much
in evidence.
The ladies of the county are the orig
inators Of the enterprise. As long ago
as last summer the Santa Clara County
Floral society presented the first plans
for the carnival to the board of trade
and asked for assistance. Miss Lois
Peckham, who is the president of the
Floral society and the belle of Santa
Clara county, has been the most active
in pushing the enterprise, and she has
number Of able assistants.
The plans for the carnival have NOT
yet been fully matured. but it has been
decided that four days programme is
to be mapped ont. There will DO a big
parade, with flower covered floats and
various exercises. University, or STAN
ford. day is to be made the day Of all
days, in honor Of the famous institu-
iton at Palo Alto. A parade Of from
$4,000 to 1870 school children will
also be feature. All the principal
streets are to be decorated and spanned
with arches Of roses, and the electric
light tower, $50 feet high, will be COW
cred from top to bottom with roses and
streamers. About the tower are to be
four arches. bearing notices in red roses,
and on the arches will be stationed
flower girls, who will scatter roses in
profusion during the parade.
A big pavilion is to be erected in
Agricultural park, opposite the famous
Alameda, and in this will be exhibits
OF flowers from every town and village
in the county. The rivalry between the
di fferent towns is already hot, and it is
estimated that over 500 acres of flowers
have been planted in anticipation Of the
carnival There Is no doubt that the
beauties of the county will all be there,
for eight carnival queens are to be So
lected, representing as many different
flowers. There will be queens Of roses,
pansies. tulips, sweet peas, magnolias.
carnations, lilies and iris. The queens

its gates Why he came. or precisely
when, is largely matter of conjecture.
Over this, as over so much of his life,
lies veil that he himself never chose to
lift. That he was poor is certain, and
highly probable that he was quite IN
friended. Whether he had any conscious
ness or persuasion of his almost miracu-
lous gifts we can only guess. The inn
pulse that led him there cannot have
Been altogether due to chance or within,
but that he could have foreseen the
splendid result is altogether impossible.
Like many less gifted mortal, he sus-
tanned the struggle Of hope and fear.
The first folio of his plays sells today
for large sum of money. but let us
imagine romance worth 20 islands OF
treasure.
Suppose some one, wrenching away a
shaky panel in an old house in Warwick
shire, came upon a concealed cupboard,
wherein lay, thick with the dust of 800
years. roll of manuscripts, curled and
yellow with age. And suppose that, on
unfolding it, he found it bore the title

Here surely would be record Of I'M
paralleled interest and chiefly the chap
ter which should tell of how be came
to London. Think of what that step was
to him, consider the power of his mind,
imagine it at the age of so, looking
back with calm unruffied insight on its
own history as drama, and then reflect
what he, Shakespeare, could say about
that youthful entry into London, and
how depict it. A kings ransom could
not buy the chapter, and a temple would
be o poor place to house it.--Chambers'

panies that the wife Of the captain shall
not travel in his ship? It's fact. The
company strongly prohibits its captains

mainly to the safety Of his wife. So
that IL the wife Of captain wants to

! action of heat, but has not wholly lost
| its sedimentary characteristics.
We will consider first the sedimen-
/ tary. You remember that l described
last night an experiment in settling
muddy water, and the results. If left
for half an hour only, coarse sand;
! twentyfour hours brings silt. l have
known clay to stay in water for several
weeks without settling. Matter thus de-
posted in water is not yet rock in the
usual sense of the term. How does it
get to be rock? 1t must be cemented in
some way. In looking for specimen
for the class l found this. (Here the
professor held up a row-lock that had
! been in the water and sand till en-
crusted with sand) The cement here
came from the iron by the chemical
action of the salt water. 1t is however,
more frequently lime. But in most
cases it is not so cemented. AS the clay
lies in the bottom of the water, it is
buried under the sediment. The weight
seems to press the crust of the earth
down so that the water still covers the
top. Layers are thus made-100, 1000
10000 feet deep. At the depth of a
mile the pressure is enormous and the
/ temperature very much higher. The
combined heat and pressure SOlidify the
clay and it becomes rock once more.
Nine-tenths of the rock on continents
are sedimentary, formed under water,
but found at the top of a mountain, per-
haps. How did it get there. The ocean
covered it all once The earth was, it
seems certain, once molten. AS it cool
ed portions of it crusted over, but the
crust sank and was remelted. After
time, however, the whole mass cooled
sufficiently so that a crust could be
formed all over the outside. This crust
cooled more rapidly than the center at
first, but after a time the crust became
comparatively cool and then the center
cooled faster and Shrank away from
the crust. The pressure was SO great
that the crust must follow. The result
is a Wrinkling of the crust. Today the
highest mountains in the world are the
mountains geological
ly. The highest in the United States
are the Rockies, new also. The old AL
leghanies have been worn down by the
action of weather on them. AS this |
goes on, however, new mountains begin /
to form. In the far distant future there |
will be a high range of mountains in |
the Gulf of Mexico, but it will be mill |
lions of years. In this process of max |
ing sedimentary rock, clay becomes !
slate, and limestone marble; coal beds |

Two drays driven by Cinnamon were

loading up large pipes. The foremost
had about its limit on when one of the
pipes slipped. The noise caused the
horses to run, and the remainder OF the
pipes falling off at intervals made the
animals run still faster. They were dis

TO PLAY BASEBALL.
Is the Proposition Now Before the
Summer School Members.


Members of the summer school are
bent upon things of life other than the
strictly educational Not so many
charms has the latter but that some
time can be given to athletics.
The Maui men started the ball rolling
by proposing base ball as soon as they
arrived in the city, and they have talk
ed the matter over to the remaining
their ears throughout the day and to
trouble their sleep at night. These Maui
men have selected d. Kanewanui as
their captain and have gathered around
their banner a number of the other pu
pills of the school. Yesterday they took
a stand and challenged the whole re-
mainder of the school, the time and
number of games to suit the convent
ence of the opponents.
The Maui men ran up against a very
good majority, who elected Meheula
CT. plain and accepted the challenge.
Matters were not allowed to lag, and
the two teams went out to the Makiki
base ball grounds yesterday afternoon
to take out the stiffness in their legs.
Permission has been granted to the
members of the summer school to play
or the Makiki base ball grounds any
time they are not in use.
The team winning the most games in
the proposed series will probably send
in a challenge to one of the League
teams. 1t has not yet been definitely
decided what time the first gam" will
be played, but it will probably be very
soon, as the ladies of the school are
very much excited over the affair, and
excitement too long pent up might re-
suit disastrously.

Carter, Thursday.
A young lady was standing on the
sidewalk awaiting the arrival Of
street car bound for town, when BIZ
cycle came down the sidewalk at a
pretty swift pace. The young lady, not
expecting that the law had been chang
ed so as to allow wheelmen on the
sidewalk, was oblivious TO anything Of
the kind.
The wheelman, thinking OF course
that he should be allowed anywhere.
slackened his pace not whit, and very
soon struck the young lady, throwing
her to the ground. No injury was done,
but it was simply a piece of luck that
the lady was not seriously injured.
