Washington. Now this poor man, who
can with the greatest difficulty keep his
family from suffering for the necessares
OF life, is compelled to bring proof to the
land office that he has held his claim in
good faith and that these allegations Of
this hireling are not true. Surely such
mal-administration as this ought to damn
any man, any party that tolerates it.
There has already been too much of this
in Chehalis county. An accomplished
attorney remarked day or so ago that
this Freemanism and IIolsingerism had
cost the poor, struggling hoinesteaders Of
Chehalis county more than two thousand
five hundred dollars. and in every instance
the report had been proved string Of
misrepresentation There ought to be
law to bring such men as Freeman and
Holsinger to condign punishment.
Yours for Righteousness,
OLD SOLDIER.

Sample Of Performance Of Official Duty.
To the Editor;
The writer of this has recently seen a
communication o! one Holsinger, q special
agent OF the land department, recon-
mending for cancellation the homestead
entry OF most worthy citizen of Chehalis
comfy. Tor downright infamy, for UNI
mitigated talsehood Of statement, it sur.
passes anything have seen for many a
day. For example, the homesteader has
lived on his claim with his family all the
time for four years he could spare from
the labor of making living for his de-
pendent family. But this Holsinger re-
ports he has never established residence
at all. The homesteader has good
house 2Sx1G, shingled rooted and shingled
on the sides, floor laid with mill dressed
flooring, we'll finished with ceiling inside,
and we'll furnished. Yet this government
hirelng at rs per day, reports the house
as IA shack 15xl5 and unfinished. d"

of cultivation to vegetables, Strawberries,
gooseberies, raspberrics and blackber-
ries. He has also so fruit trees in a good
state OF growth and preservation. Yet
this boss liar OF the Mckinley regime
says the homesteader has only 81 = acres
slasfsed and = acre in cultivation" lie
confcsses the Improvements are worth
$3.50, but they have really cost 5000 and

, lived in Monlcsano and is not engaged

else In other words, this mans state
nrent about this poor homesteader is al
most entirely tissue of lies, cruel, bitter
barcfaced lies, from tho beginning to the
end He has never seen the land; III
has evidently taken the report OF some
personal enemy of the poor homesteader

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES \ldette.
OF the worlds production of gold in the
years lSS9-lS96 inclusive, amounting to
81, 276, 100000, Money gives the distribu-
ton as follows: Used in the arts. $3.50,
100000; absorbed by the banks of Eng
land, France, Austria and Russia, $625,
10000; of the $17l 900, 900 remainder,
more than half was taken by Asia, leav-
ing only about $75 100000 for the rest of
the world This is the total for eight
years. The United States produced at
least that amount every year, but from
these figures her annual net increase is
hardly perceptiblc. Her minis have
been coming gold, and the amount added
to the treasury figures, but the coins
must have slipped away somewhere.
The cotton growers are evidently not
participating with the wheat raisers in
that prosperity which the Hannarchists
are cndeavoring to boom through free
supplements to country newspapers
several OF them, all OF kind, were in our
exchanges this week. The following
from the New York Sun of the 18th shows
the condition OF the cotton growers:
Cotton yesterday recorded the lowest
prices in forty years, with the exception
OF 1894. The market ior futures was de-
moraized at the opening owing to an un-
eXpectedly weak Liverpool market. The
January future sold down to 6.1O cents
pound, as against go cents, the close on
Friday. Later there was rally with the
final quotation Is cents. The weakness
OF cotton for some time has been due to
large estimates of the crop, light de-
mand for the season from spinners both
here and abroad, and the absence OF
speculation.

Charity Gard Party

The big charity card party, for which
preparations have been going on for
weeks, and which has been lost sight of
during the Fiesta excitement, will take
place this Tuesday evening at Turn
verein hall. AS there are twenty-nine
sections, all of twenty-four people, and
q few of them double. there will be az
least TOO persons playing cards at once
on the floor, and the sight from the gal
lery promises of itself to be worth the
price of admission. Each section will
present two prizes. one to lady and one
to a gentleman, and in accordance with
special request, evening dress will not
be worn. In other words, about 700 la
dies and gentlemen will respond to in
vitations to meet informally this even-
ing and pay a nominal sum to play cards
that the Golfers of the Assistance league
and the other organization for assist
ing unemployed women may be replen-
ished. The ladies who have organized
the sections will hold their last meeting
this morning at the hall, that all details
may be in readiness for the game this
evening.

RAILWAY CONDUCTORS
VIII Witness the First Entertainment
at Fiesta Park

An early use has been found for the
new Fiesta park On May IL the annual
convention of the Railway Conductors
union being then in session, great EN-
tertainment of early Southern California
scenes, games, features and dances has
been prepared for the 5000 visitors, who
will witness something that to them will
be entirely new in the amusement line.
In order that all necessary fitness may
be given to the surroundings, special
scenery Is now being painted by Mr..
Englander. John c. Cline will assist
Messrs Wiltshire and Buckley in procur-
ing a number of first-class riders, who
will be quite able to show the visitors
something of the dash and grace Of
California horsemanship. The tribunes
themselves will not be disturbed in any
particular, the seats being conveniently
located; but the park will be decorated
for that occasion in order to emphasize
the welcome of the visitors. 1t has been
proposed to add a huge ballet to the
many attractions but that part of the
program is not yet decided upon.

4 Receiver Needed

ATLANTA, Ca, April 26.-Harry A. Cas-
sin, who has confessed to the embezzle-
mert Of $4,000 of the funds Of the Georgia
Savings Bank and Banking company was
arrested tonight under warrant sworn out
IT the instance of the directors of the COM
pany. Cassin's relatives had arranged to
make up the cashiers shortage, with the
understanding that there should be no
prosecution, but 1t now develops that an
examination Of the banks books revealed
that the shortage, instead of being $4,000,
will be several times that amount, and that
the bank, which was supposed to be one
of the most prosperous in the state. has
been robbed of nearly all of its assets. A
receiver for the concern was asked for this
afternoon. 1t II intimated that other Of
ficials of the bank are involved in the steal.

H. Germain thought the Fiesta as
much of a benefit to trade.

Fools night necessary evil. The people
enjoy it, and 1t is part of the weeks

tions, and then there will be no harm
in continuing it. I think the Fiesta as
a whole brilliant success"
Andrew Mullen said: "All Fools night
was the main feature of the Fiesta. 1t
Is a good thing if kept under proper
restraint" Mr. Bluett did not consider
the Fiesta of any special benefit to busi
ness men. The features this year were
very complete and very beautiful.
Manager Sweet of the Peoples store
considered the Fiesta a great benefit
to the city. There was no harm in All
Fools night. He thought the crowds
were extremely orderly, and it was
great fun for the young people.
Walter S. Moore said All Fools night
was a good thing, with proper restric-
tions.
NJ. M. Potter of Hotel Van Nuys said
he had about 240 guests on the street
on All Fools night, at least one-half
masked. They seemed to enjoy it i'm
mensely.
"As for myself" said Mr.. Potter, II
do not like All Fools night. The streets
are full of rough people. Under cover of
a mask many advantages are taken.
Financially 1 am in favor of it, per-
haps, but morally am not"
ut is q great advertisement for Los
Angeles-that Is, the Fiesta as whole.
Every stranger here goes away full of
it, and really exaggerates the attrac-
tlons. But the people have a wrong
idea as TO its bringing money to the ho-
tells. We contribute much. My-decora-
tions this year amounted to $3.50. With
this and the subscription and the
charges of the week, / do not even get
my money back, much less any profit"
Louis Ebinger said: ''If All Fools
night Is continued, an ordinance should
be passed and strictly enforced keeping
all women out of the saloons"
f, Chief of Police Glass was interro-
gated as to the reason for the very late
closing of the saloons on carnival night
and said that he had nothing whatever
20 say on the subject. AS to the eontin-
uance of the maskers' night during the
celebration of Fiesta, the chief showed
an equally non n-comn!ttai spirit.

YAWN AND LAUGH oFTGN.
Scientists Declare That Both Are Highly
Beneficial,

It is not so very long ago since q for
eign scientist d~iscoursed on the benefits
of yawning, This act, which Is gener-
ally regarded as %partaking Of the nature
of a tired condition, or symptom of
such a condition, of the respiration and
of the need for fresh air, is said TO be
of great service in clearing the eusta
chian tubes of the ears. These tubes
lead from the back of the mouth to the
inner side Of the ear drum, and a yawn-
ing is looked upon IN this light as a
hygienic exercise which benefits the
structures III question
Another scientist has no difficulty in
showing that when we laugh VIZ in
crease the play of tension in our lungs.
One result of this increased tension Is
to arrest the blood flow ~ the lungs
and to induce the taking of deep in
spirations. These latter are healthful
things, for many parts OF u lungs are
not called into active use III ordinary
breathing. The apex, or top of the lung,
is notably a part which does not active
ly participate in the movements of
breathing, and as this is the special
seat of consumption attack we may
reasonably hold that the law Of disuse
explains the greater liability OF this
portion of the organ to the onset of dis
ease. The free and active use of a part,
strengthening and toning it, as it We're,
is an essential condition for health
hence laughter, by bringing into play
the whole of the lungs, or at least by
favoring an increase of lung work, is 10
be reckoned an admirable exercise.
Besides this physical effect of laugh
ter we have also TO take into account It's
mental side. There is a certain brain
stimulus to be noted, a psychic result,
in addition 90 the physical effect, and
it is pretty certain the mental phase of
a good, hearty laugh is, in its way, as
healthful az is its physical aspect.
Singing is also praised as al excellent
lung exercise, and public speaking is as
effective a lung tonic as one may wish
for The only drawback to the work OF
the speaker is the foul condition of the
atmosphere in which he has often to dc
his work.-Exchange.
