Second the Suggestion

The suggestion that splendid results
might be attained for Southern Califor-
MIA If the several counties comprising
1t were to join in an exhibit at New
York, has been received with favor by
some papers in this part Of the state.
The Los Angeles Herald says that at
will cost $4,000 to maintain a Southern
California exhibit in New York city un-
til March, 1898, but 1t will pay even at
that price If properly managed"
Whether New York would be the best
place for the exhibit is matter of detail
to be settled later But the display
would certainly NOT cost any more In
any other city than in New York, and il
it can be maintained until March 1 for
$4,000, that sum divided among the vari.
Gus counties Of Southern California
would be mere trifle. The matter iS
worthy Of serious consideration. An ex.
hibit Of the kind proposed would meat
a Great increase both in tourists and
settlers.-San Diego Sun.

GhEEKS OF The OLD SOD.
A Theory of the Origin of Designation
Sometimes Applied to the Irish.

"A Theory oil the Oh
Sometimes Applied to the Irish.
Some time ago we asked why long ago,
as we'll as today, Irishmen were called
Greeks. A correspondent writes as fol-
lows in answer:
"Prince Miletus, son of a Greek mon
arch, set out with considerable band or
followers in search of adventure. They
reached Egypt, and finding the king OF
that country at war with nelghDOrlng
power they offered their services. Egypt
prevailed, largely owing to ttr skill ana
courage of Milctus, and the king bestowed
On him tho hand of the Princess scotia,
his daughter, in marriage. After lapse
of some years the Greek prince ana his iol-
lowers set out in quest OF adventure sec
ond time, and landing in Spain subdued
the inhabitants very easily. Mlletus no
came king, and after his death MS son,
Hebcr, mado a voyage to Ireland, ana CON
quering the country called 1t Hebernla.
Later he subducd the western Islands Oh
ancient Caledonia and named them HE'D
rides, also in honor of himself Finally
the mainland in the west was annexed ana
named Scotland, in honor of bis mother
Scotia.
This is how the Irish come to DO called
Greeks and Milesians, in my opinion.
Now, there are variations of this legend
nnd one Is just as historically accurate rs
the other. a parallel instance Is TINS Ia
nous discovery of DIR. Anderson:
"But earnest seekers after truth have
discovered that the ancient records ana
archives of Ireland show clearly that Jere-
miah escaped from Egypt with the youn-
gest daughter of King Zodckiah, after the
conquest of Jerusalem by ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,

TREASURY'S BILL MACERATORs.

The end of these old bills that have
served their purposes so faithfully has
a certain amount of pathos. If one is
fortunate enough to be present when a
committee Of three officers of the trea-
sury send them to their destruction, a
curious, almost indescribable sensation
will creep over them. This destruc-
ton takes place in a room in the trea-
sury building. There is small table in
the center Of the room, and on this
the bundled bills are piled in reckless
confusion. Through two holes in the
floor at the enc of the table can be seen
the large cylinders or maceratOrs into
which the bills are placed. They are
about the size Of locomotive boilers
large funnel is inserted in one of the
holes, and it connects with one of the
macerators. The bills are then united
mel. 1t is amusing to see one of the
committee take a stick when they be-
come damned and prod them through.
When the last one is safely in, mix
ture OF lime and SOda-ash is placed in
the macerator, a cover is clamped over
the Yentricle, and each member of the
| committee fastens it with a separate
| lock. Steam is then turned on, and the
cylinders are set in motion. When the
bills have been thoroughly macerated
the pulp is drawn off and taken to a
paper machine, where it is made into
sheets OF paper and afterW Wds sold. .
Some one suggested the i0ea of using
part Of the pulp to make little fancy
images The idea was adopted, and
dainty little knick-knacks made of the
pulp can be bought in the stores III
Washington. The statesmen often in
duce the possible purchaser to buy by
telling him that the image at one time
represented large sum of money.
To pick up one of these images is to
give rise to thought, for here en-
bodied in a small compass is that which
was once part Of the greatest power in
the orld.-Harpers Round Table.

FEDERAL LAW MAKERS,

Washington, March 22.-Mr. Bailey
(dem., Tex presented to the house
the minority report on the
tariff bill. The report is signed by
all the democratic members of the
ways and means committee and
gives their ground for opposition to the
bill. 1t opposes the passage of the
bill because it would compel con-
sumers to pay more for manufactured
goods. The report says that the bill not
only encourages extravaganza, but
teaches the people to look to the gov
eminent for the promotion of all kinds
of enterprises and makes them impa-
tient against public servants who be-
iieve that public moneys are trust

report concludes: 1--WE are unable

how many Of US are possessed with an
earnest desire that the work that we
put from our hands shall be a thorough.
honest faithful performance that shall

raYages of time? The great difference
in labor is not what is done-not the
kind Of work we perform-but in the

Government, from the clearing of a for

the humblest work of the hands to the

is the determination to make it of the

the front rank. The work that is per-
formed only for the sake of what it will
bring, not for what it will carry forth,
is like cloth of shoddy, which may

cheap fimsy stuff, woven with no
nobler purpose than to hold together
long enough to be bought and paid for.
