! earnest and unequivocal demand for

Mrs. D. q. Fletcher is making marked
progress with her kindergarten work
here. The Fayetteville, Ark, daily, speak
ing of her closing term there in June,
pays her this compliment by saying:
"We doubt if greater blessing ever over
took Fayetteville than Mrs. Fletcher's kim
dergarten. Children are taught impor-
tant truths that many an unfortunate
blunders through life without apprshend-
ing. knowledge of truthful facts, too,
is so tactfully impaired that the little
ones are not conscious of being instruct
ed"
Mr.. F. Clifton, a mining man from Los
Angeles, is in the city, coming to Inspect
certain property offered for sale near
Cerrillos. He says times are fearfully
dull in California. Politically, he thinks
the state safe for big free coinage ma

has been canvassing voters of California
as to their sentiments and the result runs
about eight to one for Bryan and Sewall
in the northern half of California. In
the southern half of the state the canvass
thus far shows four to one for the Dem
ocratic national ticket.
