A S2O, ,oo0,0 900 FRAUD.

 That Is What the Bridal Package Tn the
 Government Treasury Is Declared 10 Be.
 "I hate to shatter pet delusion by giving the facts in the case, said 3 former clerk in the treasury department at Washington, bat fraud ought to be exposed regardless of consequences, and the greatest fraud 1 know of is the ia nous bridal package of the treasury vaults
 'I say famous, but it isn't famous in a general sense 1t ia famous only among bridal oouples I don't know how il is, hut every bridal couple that go to Washington on their wedding tour-and it ,sems to me that about nine-tentEs F the bridal couples of the country 70 to Washiagton-know all about thst package, and the bride can't rest until she goes through the regular routine connected with 1t. No visit to Washington by a stranger is complete without an inspection of the treasury vaults, but if his or her visit is non- bridal enc the fraud of the package isn' played.
 ''I don know who 1t WAS iH the de. partment that first imposed it on | Dri dal pair, but it went, and it grows in popularity every year. When the couple enter the vault, tie man iI charge, aft CT few preliminary and rerfaietorY remarks, reaches up on q shelf. takes down q package of notes. and tells the bride to take it in her hand, # she hasn't asked for it the very first thing He then tells her that the package con- tains 9s0, 000, GOO in treasury notes, aIl in denomination of BIO, GOO each. The bride is delighted cf course, and when she goes back home she talks for weeks about having held $40, GOO, eco in her hand all at one time. The bridegroom can't resist enjoying that same pleas ure, and he fondles the package awhile, aud the pair go away blissful over the experience, while the treasury vault man losses the package back on the shelf and chuekles.
 Now this is all simply gigantic fraud on the young people. The treas ury at Washington does not hold that amount of money. The bulk of the gov ernment money is at the suhtreasury in this city That bridal package is a gay deceiver. It does contain notes to tho amount of S20. .00o, GOO, of tho de nomination of Sl0. GOO each. but they ra not money, because they're not signed So instead of having held in their hands $2o, GOO, coo the happy couple have fondled simply package that repre- sented no mere valuo than the price of the paper and Inc printing on fl. IL may be cruel to shutter thia pretty delu- sion, but my conscience forbids me to carry the burden of its coueealment any leager; hence these facts New York Sun.

An Extraordinary Migration.

One of the greatest mysteries to seien- tists, one for which there seems to be no reasonable explanation, is that con- eeraiag lhe migration of tho lemming, O. Norway rat Instead of taking place once q year these uigrations occur only once in every II years. When the timo comes tor the exodus, the little animals journey westward from Scandinavia, allowing nothing to stop their move ments, which virtually amount to 8 headlong flight They swim the lakes and rivers and climb the highest noun tains iii incalcalable numbers. deyastat- ing the whole country through which they travel. Naturahsts attribute the movement to some inherited memory of a flight to escape an e1pected eataelysm, but this seems somewhag 2arfetched. -- Pittsburg Dispatch.

SECOND TRIAL.
Hearing of Another Charge Against
L. M. Landsborough.

Superior Judge Gaddis of Yolo County
is again occupying the bench in Depart
ment One of the Superior Court, where
the second trial of l.. NJ. Landsborough
was begun yesterday.
The charge on which Landsborough is
this time being tried is that of having
presented a false claim for jurors fees
in favor of Charles E. Fordenwalt while
acting as Clerk of Department Three of
the Superior Court last fall. A few
months ago he was tried on similar
charge and acquitted. District At
torney Ryan is conducting the prosecu-
ton, and Landsborough's attorneys are
Hiram w Johnson and F. S. Sprague.
The jurors selected to try the case
are: j. B. Deserve, B. Shiels, Albert
Grubbs, n. Shaver, J. McKenna, j. Po-
pert Charles Barnes, NJ. Featherstone,
George Muddox, T. A Meiss, w. 4.
Click and A. Duncan.
The indictment was read, after which
District Attorney Ryan made his open
ing statement to the jury, in which he
recited the nature of the case and stated
" hat the prosecution expected to be able
to prove.
The case will rest on practically the
same testimony as that brought out at
the former trial, and the hearing VIII
doubtless consume several days.

In the matter of the estate of Solo
mon Heydenfeldt, deceased. Appeal by
executors from order of Probate Court
requiring them to redeem certain lands
from foreclosure sale. Order affirmed.
The administrator, or an executor, is
a trustee of an express trust He is au-
thorized to sue or to be sued without
joining with him the benefciaries of
the trust, but the suits which may thus
be brought are suits affecting the
trust, and not those in which he is in
dividually interested. Among his bene-
ticiaries are creditors. He not only
may but it is his duty to defend the
estate from all unjust and illegal at
tacks made upon it which affect the
interest of heirs, devisees, legatees or
creditors. He cannot be kept out of
such litigation upon the claim that he
is not personally injured.
No supposed errors in a judgment
rendered in the Appellate Court can be
raised in a proceeding to enforce it in
the court below. Nor is it proper to
resist the execution of a judgment of
the Appellate Court on the ground that
the judgment was reached through a
misapprehension Of the facts presented
in the record.

ACT OF A CRAZY MAN.
For a While He Had Possession of
the Steamboat Apache.

There was considerable excitement on
board the steamer Apache yesterday as
she was about to leave her wharf for
San Francisco, and for time it looked
as if several persons might be carved
by a crazy man who had a knife.
A soon as the insane individual went
aboard the boat he declared his own
ership of the craft, and producing a big
knife declared the steamer should not
leave the wharf.
Captain Ferris and the other officers
Of the boat, finding that the man was
in earnest, and fearing that he might
run amuck among the passengers and
crew, sent to the police station for
help. Sergeant McManus responded,
and after a brief conference with the
insane man the latter was induced to
surrender his knife.
He was arrested, and at the Police
Station gave the name of Charlgs
Wright He appears to be a stranger
here, as nobody has identified him.

THE NEW WAVE.
Physical Culture, Pure Food and
Drink Marks a New Era.

A great popular pure drink and pure
food wave is just now passing over
the country, and it seems to have come
to stay.
More attention is being given to ar
tieles of food and drink than hereto
fore, and people are slowly learning
that good health cannot be preserved
under the present civilization unless the
habits are of a more natural character
The apparently harmless coffee habit
now numbers its victims by the thous-
ands, producing obstinate stomach
and bowel troubles that viii not abate
except by leaving off the habit.
It is not always an easy task to drop
a lifetime habit.
One of the late discoveries is a pure
food coffee. made entirely of grains.
and possessing great fattening and
nourishing properties, while ii brews the
exact deep seal-brown color of Mocha,
and when cream is added, it takes the
rich golden brown of old Java The
taste is pungent and piquant, quite
similar to coffee: in fact, so close to it
in aroma and flavor that the coffee
drinker, who has had trouble with
coffee will freely take on the new grain
drink when he discovers that it agrees
with him perfectly, and its healthful
properties quickly dismiss his former
ails
The great feature of this new and
rational method Of diminishing sick
ness, is to avoid drugging oneself and
quit hurtful habits, taking in only what
is known to be pure natural food such
as the Creator intended for mans sub
sistence.
Nothing IS more to the point than this
new food-drink made from grains It
bears the name of Postum Cereal, y
and is made by the Postum Cereal Co.,
Linn, Battle Creek Mich
1t claims to be a direct and quick
producer of new blood corpuscles by
the natural method Of good nourishing
food taken in liquid form. 1t is quite
a bit less expensive than coffee, and al
together its use appeals TO ones COM
mon sense.
Beware of the fraudulent limitations
of the original Postum Cereal Food
Coffee. Insist on Postum.
