At the outset spoke OF love Ms an oasis.
An oasis is exactly the sort OF place that
describes the love OF many. The Traveller
over dreary desert with its drought and
misery, filings himself with joyous graft
tude under refreshing shade. The very
strength he gains too often makes him
grow weary of peace, makes him pine Tor
change. makes him dream OF more beau
teous spots yet to be found. From the
desert he came; back to the desert he
goes. Since the desert is II place OF dam
ger and detriment aud death, | would
warn you from it; so next week we viii
return to our present subject.

Mark how the sleeping landscape
Lies In the twilight gray,
By the shades OF night half hidden,
Dreaming the time away.
Watch Is u rosy finger
Heralds the coming dawn,
Pointing the varied beauties
OF tree and wood and lawnl
See the world spring 10 brightness,
Glistcn with laughing dew,
Changed In II single moment:
The heavens, the earth are new
So on the youth or maiden,
Fresh from the realms above,
Their twilight life transforming
There breaks the dawn of love.

CALIFORNIA; Wide Tire Law.

California's new tire law requires
that tires should be from three to six
inches wide, according to size Of axle
or carrying capacity, Wagons with
smaller tires may not BE sold or used
within the state after Jan. /, 1900.
Marrow tires are the most destructive
influences that are at work upon the
roads. A broad tire. made in proportion
to the load to be carried, may leave a
road better for its passage, where mar
row tire cu.sit into ruts. 1t would have
been further improvement had the
legislature ordered that the hind wheels
should run inside the track of the front
wheels Of the wagon. Where wheels
trail each other in the Same track the
tendency to cut ruts Is much greater. If
the wheels were set in different lengths
Of axle, six inch tires would give the
effect Of a one foot roller on each side
Of the wagon.

Do you realize how great change has
come over your spirit? Go back few
years in your memory! As whooping,
rollicking boy, full of good spirits, and
probable tyrant among your sisters, girls
were all very similar to you. Your free
boyish spirit made you almost look down
on the helpless 'softies", who could not
climb trees at all nor run races well, nor
play games passably. There may have
been in those early days, one bright-eyed
school miss who found in you champion
and protector. But you were more or less
ashamed of your sneaking regard; had no
idea OF the kingdom OF love whose out
skirts you were traversing; and the boy
who poked fun at you about it was almost
sure to be given ''the lie, with full
measure OF fists behind it.
In time that experience probably came
to an end. The girl was forgotten or II
ever remem bered only as confirmation
OF your later theory that woman needs
protector in man. Schooling came to an
end, business began, and the chums OF
the store and he street had so much OF
evil suggestion to make regarding girls
that your main thought OF them was as "A
very pleasant aiterthought OF the Deity,
devised for the amusement and comfort
of mankind, OF whom you We're chief.

SOME RAMBLING THOUGHTS.

To YOUNG MEN IN LOVE: You have
had your chances to twit other fellows
when they gradually absented themselves
from the store or the corner, but now
your turn has come; for | assume your
male companions have already found you
out. Like thieves set to catch thieves,
they recognize the symptoms, and they
tease.you little il you are easy going,
and much more if you are badtempered
about it.
Now a stranger, a young man among
young men, would like really thorough
communion with you on the same sub
ject, but not in the same spirit of fun
making. | realize that none of us know
all things; that some few OF us think
more than others; and that the greater
number enter into no sort of understand
ing of the beautiful oasis love can prove
to be in a desert life. SO let us chat to-
gether as though | were tried and
trusted friend to whom you had come i'll
perpleXity.

and 1t braces up all the best that Is within
you. You are now at the ssIrsme mo-
ment OF your life; your days are big with
fate. Love is sublime in its influences;
it is awful in its possibilities.

Mile after mile will you travel in the
stormiest weather if only you may see her
for few moments Without qualm Of
conscience, you now are apt to let the or
binary girl shift for herself where escorts
are needed. But your dear one finds in
you one SO persistent that he sees her
home the longest way round even though
his own comfort and rest are seriously
affected. Ion count all loss OF ease, gam;
il you can but travel a few further foot
steps. II, in scripture parance, she ask
you to go one mile, you gladly go twain.
Whether til or unfit you spring to per-
form almost any task She may lay on you.
II you are "in love- you know we'll |
haven't exaggerated particle the com
plete way in which you are now COM
PEELED to acknowledge to yourself that
weak woman" has at last asserted her
strength. Her power il so great that,
compared with it, you are feeble, and
apart from it you have none.
During the hours OF gloomy employ
ment there come flashes of memory
wherein one particular smile or one ex-
preston OF love brjghtens your whole
horizon, like lightning on a summers
night. Your senses recall her every
gesture with sort of ecstacy that is
soace to your eager heart until you re-
turn once more to the donor of sweet
hopes and wholesome purposes.
As evening draws on, If that be your
time for visiting her, supper finds you
restless to be gone. Remarks addressed
to you by the home-folks get answered
in monosyllables, or you fail altogether
to understand what they are saying to
you The sounds of the fields, the high
ways and even the busy streets, chime in
with the rugged harmony of your heart.
Come the hoarse roar of the storm or the
gentle signing of breezes, they are both
one to you! The storm you defy and the
breeze you would force into strength, for
you are man, walking with head fear
lessly erect, treading the earth like Il
king. You are nerved to your best be-
cause a woman has owned that she loved
you; she has bowed down her mightiness

would have resulted in Tillo's favor.

of the derby, and great cheer went up
when the judges hung out Ornaments S
number as winner The track was in
perfect condition.
At the drop of the flag Ornament was
the first to show, with the others in a
close bunch. AS the field passed the
grand stand DR.. Catlett was nose in
front of Boanerges. Going the next
quarter DR.. Catlett increased his lead
to two lengths, but gave up at the
three-quarter post in favor of Boaner-
ges, As the bunch turned in the back
stretch bent for home Ornament was
seen to move up, and in the stretch he
was one length in front. Tillo came
from fourth place, and Williams made
a desperate effort to overtake the lead
er, but Tillo seemed to falter under him,
and Clayton worked hard to keep Or
nament in front. Suddenly Tillo re-
gained his speed and was again after
the leader, and came gaanely every jump,
but could not head the great Ornament.

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y. July 1.-The
second varsity race over the Hudson
river four-mile course Of the crews of
Columbia, Pennsylvania and Cornell,
will take place, tide and water, permit
ting, tomorrow afternoon between the
hours of 6 and 1880.
Unusual interest attaches to- the con-
test, owing to the participation of the
Cornell crew, which so easily defeated
Yale and Harvard last week, as the de-
feating of Cornell or the smashing of the
record made last week would raise the
question as to whether Columbia and
Pennsylvania should not be admitted to
future contests in which Yale and Har-
ward take part with Cornell.
The best information here tonight
leads to the belief that Cornell will not
be defeated, but it is also said, upon like
good authority, that her crew will have
to row as they never rowed before, apd
that with any Kind of favorable condi-
tions, the record of last week will be cut
under. This is the opinion, openly eX-
pressed this afternoon by Coach Cowles
of Columbia and ooncurred in by the
rest.
The indications are that the weather
conditions will be favorable. In the
drawing for position this afternoon Cor
nell had her usual luck and drew the tide
course, where the ebb tide flows strong
est. This is the third consecutive time
that Cornell has drawn the outside po-
'sition. Columbia drew the shore and
the Pennsylvania crew drew the sand
wich or middle place. 1t is asserted,
and with some degree Of truth, that the
position Cornell has held in the last two
races and will hold tomorrow, gives her
considerable advantage over the other
crews, the tide assisting her.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1.-The Cali

That date was fixed yesterday at meet
ing of the Directors, who also decided
to adopt the block system of betting,
which is simple device by which the
public makes it's own odds. The conten-
ton between Santa Rosa and Stockton
as to which town had the right to appro-
pirate the week following the State fair
also engaged the attention of the Direc-
tors. Ira Pierce, in a communication,
offered the association the use of the
track and a bonus of $1,000 as an induce
ment for the Breeders to give a meet
ing at Santa Rosa. The Stockton people
notified the association that they had
arranged to hold fair and that they did
not propose to surrender the date GUS
tomarily assigned to the San Joaquin
Association. Under the circumstances,
the Directors could not take advantage
of Santa Rosa's offer, but it was thought
possible to so adjust differences as to

meet to the gallopers, while it's rival
could hold exclusively for the light

Ward telephOned to friend ana In
trusted some business affairs to him
and negotiations were again resumed
for a loan on the jewels which Mrs.
Bradbury had carried away with her.
These cost something over $4,000, and
consisted of portion of the gifts made
to her by her husband during their brief
married life. The jewels were so-well
known and the question of their owner
ship SO doubtful that the transaction
was refused by several cent per cent
men, but at last one was found who was
willing to risk $500 on the lot, and the
proffer was eagerly accepted. For the
first time since the plunge into the social
depths had been taken the couple found
themselves in funds, and subsequent
events seem to show that they at once
made UP their minds to leave for the
north.
SEEN BY NIGHT.
The next seen of Ward and Mrs.
Bradbury was last night about 9:35
o'clock in East Los Angeles. Acting
upon the information of their visit to
Wannock's park, a reporter took an
electric car shortly after 9 o'clock to ride
to the resort. About three blocks from
the park long line Of pepper trees
overhang the street and darken that
section so as to render recognition i'm
possible unless within several feet. AS
the car hurried past this spot two
seated wagon with a top was seen NOV
ing slowly by, drawn by two tired bay
horses. There were three persons in
the rig, one a man on the front seat
driving, while on the other seat were a
woman and another man. None seemed
to pay any attention to the e-car and did
not turn their eyes in it's direction.
While any recognition Of those in the
carriage was out of the question, the
reporter had the car stopped, and step
ping off went to the opposite side of the
path and stood in the shade waiting the
arrival Of the slowly approaching team.
The party at last hove in sight, but
there was nothing in their appearance
distinguish them. At last the watcher
allowed them to pass and then walked
in diagonal direction past the rear of
the carriage and about fifteen feet from
the occupants of the back seat. They
