Portrait of the German Emperor.
From the London Daily Mall

And between the walls of reclamation
came riding the kaiser. man of middle
size, sitting constrainedly and bolt upright:
dead-yellow skin. hard-penciled brows.
straight. masterful nose. lips damned
close together under a dark mustache
pointing straight upward to the whites of
his eyes. face at once repulsive and
pathetic, SO harsh and stony was it, SO
grimly solemn. A face In which no In
dividnal feature was very dark but which
altogether was black as thunder He rails
ed his gloved hand In a stiff, mechanical
salute and turned his head impassiyely
from left to right; but there was no court
esy in the salute. no light in his eve no
smile on the tight mouth for his loyal sub
jects. He looked like man without Joy.
without love. without pity, without hope.
He looked like man who had never
laughed. like man who could never sleep.
man might wear such a face who felt
himself turning slowly into ice

The Eternal Justice.

Thank God that God shall Judge my soul, not
man!
I marvel when they say,
''Think Of that awful Day
No pitying fellow sinners eyes shall scan
With tolerance thy soul,
But His who knows the whole,
The God whom all men own is wholly just"
Hold thou that last word dear,
Ard live untouched by fear.
He knows with what strange fires He mixes this
dust.
The heritage Of race.
The circumstance and place
Which make what are-were from His hand
That left us, faint of voice,
Small margin for choice.
He gave, took; shall not fearless stand?
Hereditary bent
That hedges in intent
He knows, be sure, the God who shaped thy brain
He loves the souls He made
He knows His own hand laid
On each the mark of some ancestral stain.
Not souls severely white.
But cropping for more light.
Are what Eternal Justice here demands.
Fear not; He made thee dust
Cling TO that sweet wOrl-''Just.''
AlI's we'll with thee If .hOu art in just hands.

200 South Spring ST., Los Angeles:
Dear Sir-We are glad we took your advice
and came here. We never would have for
given ourselves had we omitted Coronado, for
IT is simply perfect, in every way-the grandest
hotel, the most beautiful beach, the best
bathing, boating. fishing, sailing, bicycling.
riding aud driving. But it must be seen to be
appreciated. for neither tongue nor pen can
portray the grande eur of the hotel and beauty
of location. No other place can compare with
Coronado, and no other hotel has the CON-
forts, the table, the grounds and all advan-
tages we find here at Hotel del Coronado. We
are really surprised that everybody has not
come here, but we suppose that many think as
we did, that Coronado is similar to other re-
sorts, when, in fact, it is unlike, though supe-
rior, to any other.
Thanking you most heartily for suggesting
IT to us, we remain, very truly yours +++

This Mouse Was Dry.

There was little mouse and he was
mischievous. He made his way into the
roIl-tOp desk of w. p. Stewart & Co.. and
when the top was shut down he found
himself imprisoned in one of the top
drawers In that drawer are kept the
bills and receipts of the firm. AS time
wore on the imprisoned mouse probably
became thirsty for he went to chewing
up one of the bills that lay in the drawer.
He tackled receipted milk bill and
that is why Parker Stewart thinks the
mouse was dry. None of the other bills
were harmed.
Once upon time. about three months
hanging around his desk. This mouse
was funny mouse. 1t took liking to
most anything there was in the desk AT
first it was satisfied to masticate clean
copy paper and few matches. but later
1t had more confidence in it's ability to
larger and more indigestible things. 1t
took, stole and carried away two foun-
tain pens, Il pipe. two jackknives. a u.s.
calibre revolver. 100 cartridges for the
same, a railroad ticket, and :, lot of other
material that is generally useful to war

While Mr.. Stewards mouse is very tame
often coming out of his hole during the
day and calling on the clerks and pro-

is enough to infiict on one and that its
presence in the Office when the clerical
force are about would not be cOngenial
to it's good health. About the only thing
this mouse has not carried away to date
is the desk and typewriter. The desk is
not a valuable one and probably it is the
wrong kind of a typewriter.
This matter has been reported to the
city marshal but he evidently thinks he

How the Hobo Got Left

He was a genuine railroad beat and
bum. When Bodge's train started out
from Skowhegan. the man was seen to
run around the engine and get onto the
rear platform of the combination car
When Conductor BODICE was half way
through the smoking compartment. TAX
ing up tickets. the bum passed through
the car and took seat AT the forward
end Mr.. Dodge went to him and de-
manded a ticket. but the fellow said he
had neither ticket or money. He was
then told to get off at the next station.
Pishon's Ferry. When the train arrived
at the Ferry. the fellow made no move to
get off the train and so Mr.. Dodge was
obliged to give him another invitation.
The man alighted. but as soon as the
train started he graspeu one of the rods
under the car and swung under the train
to the truck frame.
Good VIII Farm was reached and the
train hands began to look for the stow
away He came out from under the car
and stood alongside of ii until the train
again started. He was about to make an
other attempt to tackle the truck fran
when Il passenger jumped down and sung
out: Get right into the car. | want you.
You are good for 20 days" This was
enough for the bum. He could see. or
thought he could see. an officer in that
passenger. and to be arrested meant 30
days in Jail. so he just let the train slide
on. The chances are nine to one. how
ever. that he boarded the freight train
that came along about IL hours later,
for he was seen in this city. that evening.
This fellow was working the diseased
arm racket on the people in Skowhegan.
and when he got onto the train he tried
the same thing. He raised a quarter be-
fore he was stopped by Baggagemaster
Pinkham. He had friends in Augusta. but
he could not think of their names. 1t
was noticed that when he grabbed the rod
under the car. the diseased arm did not
bother him bit.
