BUILDING A TEMPLE.


 Beautiful Site Chosen by Theosophists
 on San Diego Bay, California-Will be
 School for the Revival of the Lost
 Mysteries of Antiquity
 What we are accustomed to regard as the new country of the far west is to the Theosophists an old land and the center of civilization beside which the Greek and Roman ages of power and splendor are but as yesterdays, and even Egypt and Assyria are modern in comparison.
 On piece of land containing about one hundred and thirty-two acres on the beautiful shore of San Diego bay, California, the Theosophists propose to erect temple and found a school for the Revival of the Lost Mysteries of Antiquity" This institution which has recently been incorporated under the laws of New York, sets as it's objects "the mutual improvement in religious knowledge by the comparative study of religions, Investigations of the se- cret mysteries of antiquity. the perfor- nance of charitable and benevolent services"
 The plans and directions for the con- duct of such a school were prepared and have been constantly in view from the inception of the theosophic move ment in this century. The corner stone will be laid with imposing ceremonies. In the corner stone will be incorpor- ated stones from the six-nation reser- vation, from Ireland, Egypt and Swe- den.
 The temple will be an appropriate and enduring edifice Of stone built in the Egyptian style of architecture.
 It will probably take five years to | complete it.
 Each of the one hundred and thirty American branches will send a trian- gular stone, four of these fitting to- gether to form a square, which will be used as the base of pillars Each stone will be inscribed with the name of the branch, the date of it's founding and the names of it's officers. There will be in addition stones from differ ent foreign countries.
 But the Theosophists are not going to wait five years for a temple to dwell in. A temporary building is being erected | and will be ready for occupancy May 1st. Although this will be built of wood it will be no mean edlfice. The main part is in the form of an antique temple. with six immense pillars across | the front. In this part of the building | will. be halls and lecture rooms. On either side will be wing similar in construction containing living rooms. One of the interesting things about this temple is that Point Loma, on which it is built, is a part of what is termed the third continent Lemuria, most of which is covered by the Pacific ocean. This is not one of the oldest bits of land on this continent, but in the high rocks. of which it is largely composed, there are markings which are generally supposed to have been

INA UG URATION WEEK,

Another four years has passed, bring parations for the inauguration of MT. Mckinley are on an extensive scale, promising big pageant despite the hard times that have been prevalent for many months past The decorating for the occasion Is on a large scale, and brilliant scene will be presented. It Is not a partisan, but national demon- stration, and this fact seems to be most pleasantly and generally recognized. A national welcome will be given to the new chief. The prevailing colors' will be yellow and white. Every stand will have a number of flagstaffs of varying lengths, each supporting flag of ap- propriate size. The inaugural commit tee has distributed 5oOO0 small flags among the dwellers and occupants of business houses along the route of the procession. The stands will not be rough boards, but will be handsome platforms, uniform in construction and decoration. The bases of the stands will be painted to represent stone walls, while the columns will be finely trim med with green and tri-color bunting. state shields and star spangled ban ners. The interchange of courtesies between the retiring and incoming presidents will include a call by MT Mckinley upon MT. Cleveland at Il a. m. on inauguration day, and later in the day Mir Cleveland will return the call. The ubiquitous reporter and the sketch artists should be on hand to give the country word pictures and other pictures of these interesting events. The Washington papers main tain that this inauguration parade and other features of the occasion will be the finest yet.
 The New York Sun speaking of in- auguration week and what it includes, gives vent to the following: AlS lS tllC ldSL WScA III WI NhI Grover Cleveland will hold the office of President of the United States.
 Praise to our forefathers for the great gift of the constitution, under ! which the term of office of every presi- dent, good, bad or indifferent, is brought to an end, instead of running on indefnitely!''
 Proceeding, the Sun adds: Tn our new president we shall have, at the least, a man who is not destitute of reason, who is not superheated with personal vanity, who has had valuable | experience as a legislator, who is large | ly imbued with the spirit of American ism, and who, in other years, made it manifest that he possesses the valor which is native to his country"

refuses to 80 to peace even for the brief space of five years" And there's a big kernel of truth in the remark, Flaming speeches for fire and sword and slaughter sound big in print, and the senators in question are aware of it. On this subject the Philadelphia Record of Sunday pithily remarks:
 MT Morgan, of Alabama, has washed his hands of responsibility in the San gully matter. He ought to have fln- ished the detersive process while he was about it. His tongue is in more need of cleansing than his hands.
 MT. Morgan's latest victim of Span ish feroeity is George Washington Aguirre, a youth of nineteen and a citizen of the United States who pa triotically surrendered to the Spanish on the Fourth of July. American citi- zenship sprouts early in the Cuban climate.
 According to the report communi- cated a short time ago to the Senate by the State Department total of seventy-siX persons claiming American citizenship have been arrested in Cuba since the outbreak of the war. The activity of this Government in their be- half, and the success Of it's efforts to obtain their, release, will appear from the fact that at present a bare baker $ dozen of cases remain the subject of negotiations. The Jingoes in the Sen ate and their newspaper allies have sought to create the impression that the Americans languishins in Spanish dungeons might be numbered by thou sands; there are thirteen, and most of them are probably bogus citizens. The Administration Is charged with having failed to protect Americans in Cuba; it has secured relief in the cases of five sixths of those arrested since the be- ginning of the war, and every case brought to US notlce has received con- tinuous and the most earnest consider ation. The Jingoes allege that the Ex- ecutive has suppressed the facts; the lingo Senate and the newspaper Dress have buried the facts under mass of prevarication and bunconbe. The age of miracles is past, else many a lingo might have cause to fear the fate of | Ananias."

THE -POOL LA ".

The Judiciary committee reported alterations of the law to prevent pool selling in this State. But MT. Neary, of Naugatuck, introduced substitute bill, which is on the House calendar for Wednesday of this week. Having fail ed in his attack upon the law itself. Mir Weary, in behalf of the driving and betting interests, which he represents! now proposes to move on the penalties imposed by the law, and to reduce them to so inconsequential an amount that the race-track gamblers can afford to pay them. Stripped of it's verbiage, the substitute bill proposes to put the pool law of the State on sale for those who can afford to pay for the privilege not only prostitute the law, but it would also open the door wide for the return of a gambling fraternity who have been driven out of the State by the law against pool-selling, Under it's loosely drawn provisions Connecticut could be mSde an open field for the worst race-track gambling There is not an honest horse in the State who ought not to kick against such prop osition.
 It is a bad time to introduce such a bill, when only last week a number of New York pool sellers, who had been prosecuted under this law. for fear of it's jail penalty forfeited their bonds and paid large sum, amounting to several thousand dollars, over to the courts. There is no danger that the House will give MT. Neary's absurd and vicious bill any serious considera- tion. If it should slip through the House, there would be noise enough made about it afterwards, as the gen. tlemen in this city and elsewhere who secured the enactment of the pool law would be sure to be heard from.

FASHION NOTES.
White to be On Ton.

Women are going to wear white plumes in their hats this spring, if they have any chance to do so, and while hats cannot be any more elabo- rate than they have been, they are go4 ing to be still daintier and lighter. The all-white hat seems likely to regain it's long lost place as dress effect, and to be popular as a concession to the dressi- ness of an occasion just as white gloves are. But white plumes will not need a white hat to excuse their showing, and will be abundant on colored headgear. Significant of this point was the hat of the accompanying sketch, which was fancy black and green straw in modi-
 fication of the sailor shape. Bows of

 three white plumes lowered above it.
 Besides the hat a very pretty cape is
 shown in the picture It was made of
 black velvet, and was edged in front
 and around the hem with a ruching of
 very small ostrich tips. It had a, round
 yoke literally sprinkled with spangles
 and cord ornaments, and this was fin ished with twisted black satin ribbon
 forming loops at either side of the
 shoulders and giving the long ends in
 front. The garments high collar was
 of the velvet and satin and was edged with feather ruching. Pale blue satin was used for lining.
 Hats promise to go right on gettinc bigger and bigger and you cannot put to such an extreme that it would seem that no woman who has much to put
 under hat could possibly feel like wearing such thing. The latest thing
 in pins is a pair of very heavy amber ones the heads being rounded and much thicker than the big pins we have been in the habit of wearing. Two of these hold the coil with perfect security and are very ornamental They also, if set in the right place about the head. serve to steady the down tipped hat The same thing Is shown in tortoise shell and is very handsome. Silver and gold pins of this sort are to be had, too, but absolute plainness and the appear ance of weight are what is required FLORETTE.
