Successful Failures.

Dickens was one of the greatest of
English novelists but it was his fail
ure to become an actor which caused
him in the first place to turn his atten-
tion to literature.
David Livingstone studied for three
years with the sole aim of being a mis-
sionary to China. 1t was only because
his hopes We're crushed by the opium
war" which made it impossible to en-
ter China, that he thought of going
to Africa and was the means of open
ing up a whole continent to Christian
ity and civilization.
Columbus discovered America
through his failure to reach India as
he hoped to do by sailing westward.
Some years ago an ingenious plan was
proposed by man named Joggins for
sending logs from Canada to New
York by towing them. bound together
by cables and iron girders, as rafts.
The plan failed, as the first raft sent
out met with a storm near the end of
its voyage, the iron girders snapped
and the logs We're scattered far and
Wide. Hundreds Of captains in the At
iantic, the Mediterranean and the
South seas noticed these logs and re-
ported on them. The reports were col
lected and systematized and deductions
made from them as to the course of
ocean currents. In the end the fail
ure of the Joggins raft led TO one Of the
greatest discoveries in modern marine
geography and navigation.

LEAP YEAR WAS A FAILURE
But the EARLY Moments of 1897 nade
Up for 1t.

Four nights week and once on Sun
days had Iancelot Gewgaw been paying
his attentions to pretty Syrasella Floor
| delee, and there was yet quite long
pay roll before him. But in all that time
he had not thought to say the thing
that would have made him happy
Syrasella was a beautiful being. Her
hair was so raven black that it left a
| mark on everything white, which is
why Lancelot always wore colOred gen
| tlemen's furnishing goods. Her eyes
were like twin comets rushing through
space at each other, and she had many
beautiful teeth. Altogether she had the
proper assortment of attractions calcu-
i lated to make her face a thing of
| beauty.
! Lancelot was not chump, although
he wasn't saying a thing to her He
was simply lacking in assurance. He
was a book agent, but that was his
| profession. His almost human ears
hung on either side of his head, taste
! fully covered over with real hair, and
his eyes were of the true floorwalker
variety He was no bargain counter
attraction, but special Monday mark
down, and Syrasella knew it.
And now they were seeing leap year
go out together. He had talked about
/ everything except the one dead easy,
/ hackneyed, yet never stale subject, and
as the hands on the clock chased them
! selves near to y she grew more and
more beautiful as she seemed to be
nerving herself up to the point of say
| ing a few words herself. Suddenly the
| clock struck q dozen times, and with
/ a wild cry she cried out, saying,
I 'Lancelot, why did / lose my chance? F?
! Leap year is gone for four years
Lancelot beat at his forehead with
! his clenched fist until the veins IN his
neck assumed the proper shade of pur-
pie. Then, stalking across the floor, he
| came back He knelt in front of the
Givinely beautiful girl. whose hair was
making streaks over her gown. His
tones were like the best quality Of
honey; "Syrasella. forgive me-
Give you what?" she murmered,
coyly, as she swept her cheeks with her
| long eyelashes. She was that neat that
she swept them every day.
Give me your heart" he said, in
deep. wealthy tones, and as the whis-
ties sounded ushering in the new year
her tender Yes rose above all the
tumult, and two loving hearts gave a
faithful imitation of a dynamo working

TIE FATE OF THE HIGHWAY
MEASURES.

The highway bills WILL it is believed,
come up ir the Senate to-day for final
action. The host of the friends of road
reform await the decision with more
than anxiety. They say they have
strong reason for repose of faith in the
Senate that it will carry out the work
which met with practically unanimous
favor in the Assembly, and has the in
dorsemant of the Senate Committee on
Highways.
1t is not, probably, claimed that the
bills are in all respects just what they
should be. Road reform advocates
would much have liked to see them
framed TO meet their advanced views
in all things. But it is realized that
this great work like all others must be
one of growth and development, and
that results are not to be achieved at
bound, even in a matter that to the
students Of road reform appears self
evident wisdom and beneficence.
1t is the unshaken conviction of all
those who have given the subject study
and have made California conditions
matters OF especial concern, that the
State will best conserve its own inter
ests and those Of the several counties
by adopting some clearly defined system
of good road promotion; that proposed
or on the lines suggested in the bills
now before the Senate. and which are
the outgrowth Of weeks of work by a
joint committee of the two houses of
the Legislature.
These are not the bills, as we under
stand it, that the Bureau of Highways
deemed best in order to promote the
work all desire, but they are, under the
notifications made, measures that will
set on foot a system of reform that is
believed to involve some of the highest
and best interests of California The
result of the action of the State two
years ago in erecting the Bureau of
Highways is conceded on all sides to
have been satisfactory; 1t is agreed
that the work of that body has been of
first educational and statistical import
aD.ce, and that as an advisory board it
has been worth all and more than 1t
cost. Indeed, the present propositions
in the highway bills pending are due
entirely to the work of the bureau and
its consultations with the people in
every county in the State. 1t is about
to retire from office, having accom-
plished its work, and 1t is therefore
common justice to give it full credit
for what 1t has achieved.
Whether California is to proceed
hereafter according to system. method
and plan advised by the best authori-
ties and the experience of older states,
or to fall hack to the old and unhappy
methods Of the past in this matter of
attempting 10 better the means of coun-
try communication. and promote easy
and economic transportation between
farms and market, field and rail. and
between towns, probably depends upon
the action of the Senate to-day

STUPID REPORTING.

To trained newspaper men who have
conscience and pride in their work, it
IS inexplicabie how mischievous and
misleading reports of the commonest
proceedings in public bodies find their
way into journalistic columns. AS an
instance Of mischievous bIundering or
willful Misrepresentation with view
to create false opinion in the public
mind, take a case occurring on Tuesday
in the state Senate where absolutely
false reports were made OF a simple
matter. but which reports convey the
impression to the people who read them
that the Senate was attempting TO gag
the press and prevent news publications
of Senate proceedings.
Charity suggests that the publica-
tions referred TO were due to the
error of blundering. but if so they cast
a serious reflection upon all reports of
journals the intelligences OF which in

Advice to Shy Young Men.

Thomas Wentworth Higginson, in his
autobiagraphic papers now running in
the Atlantic Monthly" under the title
of Cheerful Yesterdays, remarks that
as an overgrown boy he suffered tor
lures from shyness in the presence OF
the opposite sex and relates the plan
he adopted for overcoming the weak
ness.
Col. Higginson says that he has rec
ommended his unique system TO young
men of later generation who have fol-
lowed it with the best results. In his
own case shyness was conquered for

One paper contained the statement in
the report of the contempt proceedings
before the Senate, that Mr.. Boyce
moved to exclude all newspaper men
from the floor of the Senate, and that
the motion was lost. Another put 1t
this way: "Morehouse suggested that
representatives Of San Francisco papers
be excluded from the Senate chamber
during the examination"
Either and both of these statements
must have the effect of impressing
readers of them with the idea that an
effort was made worthy of universal
condemnation.
There " ere hundreds of people in the
Senate chamber who heard all that oc-
CURED and cah certify, as do the Off
cial records, that nothing of the KIND
took place. The fact was so trivial
that the Record Union" reporters did
not consider it even worthy of note.
On arrival of morning trains it is the
custom of the pages to carry San Fran
cisco papers to the desks of the Sena-
tors and for newsboys to peddle them
in the lobby This. with the opening
and rustling of papers always creates
some confusion and distracts attention
from the proceedings.
On the occasion referred to the Sen
ate chamber was crowded; every inch
of available space inside the rail was
occupied by extra chairs. and it was
with extreme difficulty that anyone
could move through the aisles. 1t was
suggested to the President Of the Sen
ate that as each Senator wished to hear

| Of witnesses the usual distribution OF
papers be stopped and the distributors

Why Attempt to Cure

Catarrh by the use of so-called blood
remedies? That catarrh is not caused
by blood troubles is self-evident when
you reflect that attacks are always due
to sudden climatic changes or expos
ure, and occur most frequently during
the winter and spring, though the blood
is as pure then as in summer or fall.
n remedy which quickly relieves and
cures the catarrhal attacks has been
found in Elys Cream Balm.

eral begs to be permitted to re-
turn to his home, 1t is not to be
doubted that the President will in the
course of some weeks, perhaps not for
months, appoint some one to succeed
General Lee, who is very desirous of
surendering his position, which at the
very best is an unenviable one in the
present condition of affairs in Cuba.
That the President desires General Lee
to remain, however, for a time, is proof
of the confidence reposed in the Consul
General by the new Administration, and
must be accepted in some sense, if not
wholly, as approval Of his course. What
is even better than this news is the FUR
ther statement that Secretary Sherman
has notified General Lee, in response
to his appeal, that the Government will
give him the material support he asks
for in affording American citizens in
Cuba due protection.
King George is a Dane. He is not
native to Grecian soil, therefore, but
he manifests the old Hellenic spirit and
| excites the admiration of the world for
his pluck and manly bearing. He will
go down in history as one of the few
Kings who have been set to rule over
! people foreign to them, who has won
the love of the ruled. This reply of his
| Cabinet to the note of the powers has
the ring of true metal in it. 1t is a
splendid protest against the demand
/ that Greece shall abandon the Greek
| Christians on the island of Crete TO the
| fury and religious hatred of the merci-
less Moslem. The declaration is that
| While Greece viii withdraw her ships
! of war in the interests of peace. she
cannot recall her land forces and pre-
serve her honor and self-respect. 1t is
| set forth that Greece will willingly
! agree to any means whatever that are
| fair and open to secure permanent
| peace on the island under a free ex-
preston Of the Cretans as to the kind
of government they wish to be put over
| them. But as to the autonomy the
| powers propose to guarantee to Crete,
Greece treats it with scorn and sharply,
| but politely, gives the powers to un-
| derstand that no sort of faith is placed
| in it. All honor to George and his
| Cabinet Ministers for this stand 1t is
an attitude that puts the great powers
| in humiliating attitude before one
of the least Of the nations of the earth.
