How to Make a Room Inviting.

1 have seen very ugly rooms on which pco-
pie had spent heaps of money and there are
lovely ones which have cost their owners very
little beyond good taste and the exercise of
common sense and care. In the first place
cleanliness in room is in itself a great
beauty. Make war on every bit of dust, eyery

No harm would come of it!

horses received Saturday morning. The con-

their holdings at the auction at prices that
were generally satisfactory to them. Some
were among the offerings, and sold at fair
prices. The past week has been a very busy
one in the horse market. Prices received
during the early part of the week were lower
than the average, but within the last few
days there has been a decided turn for the
receipts, an increasing business, with an
upward tendency in prices all along the
line.

The deceased was member of Parker
Lodge No. 124, A. 0. o. F., Magnolia
Lodge No. Al, l. o. U. W., and of the
American Legion of Honor, in which So
cietles he took deep interest and had
numerous friends. Beyond his active con-
nectlon with those fraternal organizations
he was man ofdomestic habits hardly
ever having participated in public move
ments. His charity was liberal but of the
unostentatious kind. 1t is related of him
that the donation to some worthy object
which he had made with bountiful hand
was often entirely forgotten when brought
to his notice shortly afterward.
Everywhere he turned there were friends
of his, but never an enemy, for his kindly
disposition, like that of many another
whole-souled pioneer, only engendered ties
of friendship.
He leaves widow and several children
in comfortable circumstances. The fu-
neral will be held tomorrow at 2 P. N.
from his residence and the remains will be
inferred in Odd Fellows Cemetery.

the weather experts to exchange thunder
storm "reminiscences. In the Eastern
States, where the summer clouds on a hot.
sultry day are highly charged with cleo
trlcity, a single vivid fash of lightning
and one peal of thunder similar to that
which startled the inhabitants of Hay.
wards would hardly be taken into account.
In ocalities subject to electric storms APP
planes are used to protect light and
power plants from the lightning. Plugs
of soft metal are put in which will melt if
the current is too powerful, and the force
is thus diverted. Lightning rods also are
used as conductors to carry the electricity
to the ground.
Mr.. Hammond, the officer in charge of
the United States Weather Department in
| California, called to mind yesterday that
the Government in preparing lighthouse
plans for stations on the Atlantic Coast
and Gulf Of Mexico provided lightning
rods. Under the same general plans the
lighthouses on the Pacific Coast were sup
piled with lightning rods. Subsequently
it came to the knowledge of the authori-
ties at Washington that the rods were not
needed here, so they were taken down.
Singular as it may seem, the lighthouse at
the FaraIlones has been struck by light
ming twice since the rods were removed.
The conditions of the earth and air in
| California, especially along the coast, are
not favorable for the gravitation of cleo
tricity to the explosive point. Mr.. Ham
mond is inclined to believe that the light
ming which did some damage at Haywards
Sunday was caused by the friction of hail
stones. The hailstones were melted be-
fore they reached the earth, but in passing
through the air high above they caused
the explosion. I ct this is only theory,
but it is a theory sustained by observation
here and elsewhere. Large drops of water
may produce the same effect as hallstones.
The moisture of cloud attracts the cleo
trlclty and the friction OF the water drops
or hailstones produces an explosion. The
lightning may run from one cloud to an
other or descend to the earth.
The weather observer does not subscribe
to the belief that thund so called
are on the increase along the Pacific Coast.
Rails and wires connecting San Francisco
with the East produce a contrary effect, if
any effect at all followed.
TO convey to the rising generation of
California some idea of real storms of
thunder and lightning reference may be
made to the electric cloud July, 1864, in
Georgia, which launched hundred thun-
derbolts into the Fifteenth Army Corps.
Sixteen men and many horses we're killed,
kets knocked down. The storm burst on
the army corps just after the troops had
crossed the Chattahooche River and gone
into camp for the night about ten miles
from Atlanta. For fully one hour the
cloud, heavily charged with electricity.
appeared suspended over the camp. The
vivid streams of fire and the terrific peals
of thunder came simultaneously. Even
the drops of water seemed to glow with
the electric light. The flashes followed in
such quick succession that there was
scarcely an interval of darkness.

large and dangerous hole.

Presented His Report.
BERKELEY, CAL, Jan. 27.-Manager
North Of the Eastern athletic team has
filed his report with the Athletic Associa-
ton. The financial statement shows the
team to be nearly $500 in debt. The re-
sponslbllity OF these debts will be assumed
by the Athletic Association, and an at
tempt VIII be made to liquidate all claims.
mere is disposition OH the part of the
college organizations and individual stu
dents to cancel the claims which they hold
against the association, because of the
financial failure of the trip and on account
OF the honor which the team brought to
the university and State.
The talk of sending another team across
the continent this summer to meet Yale
has caused much interest to be aroused,
but the more conservative element in the
student body does not favor the idea until
the present debt of the association is liqui-
dated.
Captain Merwin stated yesterday in rela-
ton to the prospects for sending on an
other team: "The outlook for first-class
team this year is much more encouraging
than 1T was at corresponding date last
year. AS for going East, L shall by no
means favor the plan unless we have posi-
tive assurance from the clubs we are to
meet of at least enough money to pay our
expenses"
Delinquent Assessments.
BERKELEY, CAL, Jan. 27.-The Cali
fornia Bridge and Construction Company
to-day commenced proceedings against

in their assessments for the south-line
main sewer. Several suits were filed, but
the bulk of them will be entered to-
morrow. The remainder of the delin-
quents will be given until o'clock to-
morrow afternoon to pay, AMI if they fail
to do SO by that hour legal action will be
entered against them. There are about
100 delinquents in all. The sums due
range all the way from 81 so too $100.

Damages by Water.
BERKELEY, CAL. Jan. 27.--Ths heavy
rainfall last night and to-day caused con-
siderable damage In various parts of Berke-

morning conductors of the spur line of the
Telegraph-ayenne system, which runs
down Alcatraz avenue to Lorin, were COM
PEELED to carry lady passengers in their
arms from the cars to the stations on ac-
count of veritable lake which had formed
at the end of the line.
The block at the corner of Shattuck and
Ashby avenues was last night almost COM
pleteIy surrounded by water, which COW
cred the car tracks and ran into the stores,
which are almost two feet above the street
