A Highly Seasoned Dinner.

Colonel John w. Caldwell, who went
through the civil war, tells an amusing
story about a Louisville company which
served in his command. He says:
"We were camped in Tennessee. It
was in the spring and greens was the
chief ration. A large number of tho
boys would get leave every day TO go
and pick green's. One day farmer
came to me and said be had a complaint

HOsier and HOOsier.

The Philistine tells of meeting q
woman at literary reception in Lon
don who said she had heard the Ameri-
can "hosier poet" read at Exeter hall.
"How curious that hosier should be-
come your poet laureate in America"
she said.
The Philistine did not know what
she meant, but followed the trail of her
chat until she said that her favorite
among the "hosier poets" poems was
"When the Frost Is on the Pumpkin, -
and then he exclaimed that it was "Ri-
ley, the Hoosier poet"
"Oh, you Americans have such a
queer way of pronouncing things, said
the woman.
Eyes, but Mr. Riley is not hosier,
he isl began the Philistine.
But she cut the explanation short
with, ooh, see! 1t is a joke, then.
You Americans are SO funny. suppose
you think Mr.. Riley is bluestocking,
and so you call him hosier."

FEAR OF RAIN IN CUBA.
The EVIL Effect Of Water Il Not o Nor
Superstition There.

The EVIL Effect Of Water IL Not o Nero
Superstition There.
The average Cuban is dreadfully
afraid of rainwater He believes that
drenching in rainstorm, followed by
exposure to the rays Of the sun, pro-
duces fever-not necessarily yellow fe-
yer, but an attack something similar to
what is known as swamp fever in Mis-
sissippi or chagres in the isthmus Of
Panama.
The same belief prevails in Central
and South America, but in a greater
degree. On both coast lines of Nicaragua
light shower is the signal for gen.
eral scampering indoors and disin-
clination to come out again until the
sky is perfectly clear Up on the high
plateau on which the city of Caracas in
Venezuela is situated and where there
should be little or no fear Of fever the
natives are afraid to get even their
faces wet At the first appearance of
rainstorm the cab drivers, of whom
there are more than 400, put up oilcloth
screens in front of them and direct the
course of the horses through couple of
peepholes, avoiding even slight splash
in the face.
All strangers from northern latitudes
visiting Caracas are advised that not
only is rain dangerous, but that it Is
not safe to take bath within ten
days after their arrival. Men accustom-
ed to daily plunge find this advice
difficult to follow, especially in such
warm climate. Most of them disregard
it and find that 1t does them no harm,
and that it is superstition based upon
the laziness that follows residence In
an atmosphere so enervating that the
dogs are too tired to get out Of the way
Of the horse if the horse wasn't too
tired to step on them.
The Cuban fear of rain, however, is
based upon experience and isnot mere
superstition.-New York Press.

Il IL An interesting study to note III
domestic animals the traits Of their
wild ancestors. There are some charac-
teristics, Of course, which are readily
recognizable as being similar to those
Of animals still in wild state, and for
this reason they give fair idea Of the

The habits Of the dog and cat are too
familiar to comment on, but take the

gallop as fast as he ever can in after
life. He never leaves the dam, and
takes nourishment in small quantities,
avoiding full meal. which would i'm

when he stands his head is held high.
These habits show that the animal
ancestors spent their lives in the open

were great travellers.

self with milk, and is a pJor traveller
When danger approaches, his first i'm
pulse is to conceal himself. He holds
his head low in order to look under the
branches of the forest. All his charac-
teristics point to the fact that the an
cestral home of cattle was in moist,
wooded country, while the primeval
horse roamed the plains. New York

The ScallOp.

The scallop accomplishes locomotion
by series of leaps. When it is alarmed,
or wishes to change it's location, it
opens and energetically closes it's
valves, thus expelling the water. The
reaction shoots it backward. By this
means the creature is able to travel long
distances. Sometimes scallops make
considerable journeys in large COM
panies. One can scarcely imagine {
lovelier sight than that of a flock of
these pretty creatures, with shell of ev-
cry hue, from purple and white to black,
enlivened with shades Of pink, yellow
and fawn, darting about in clear water.
In their fiightlike movements, vertical,
horizontal and zigzag, they are more
suggestive of flock Of winged animals
than of bivalve mollusks.

One Of the greatest wonders of Java,
"the fire island" a large lake of boil
ing mud, is nearly two miles in ciroum-
ference, and in the center immense COL
umns Of soft, hot mud may be seen con-

black timbers thrust forth and then
suddenly Withdrawn by giants hand.
Besides the phenomena Of the columns,
there are two gigantic bubbles near the
western edge, which fill up like huge
balloons and explode on an average
three times per minute.

men Bodily Injury

Mrs. Nicola Debs, bright-eyed native
of the sultan's domain, was before Mayor
Snyder yesterday with a request for the
privilege of carrying a flrearm with which
to protect herself and her husband from
the injuries threatened by four of their
countrymen.

prietors of a Turkish fancy goods store at

small possessions of other personal prop

Debs states that merely because Of their
jealousy they have threatened to do her
husband and herself serious injury. There
fore they ask the privilege OF arming them
selves for protection.

Death of Hon. Frank Ganahl

Hon. Frank Ganahl of the old law firm of
Ganahl & Mcdaniel of this city died on
Friday June Sth at his residence in Spo-
kane, Washington, after a short illness.
Mr. Ganahl was born in Georgia, 65 years
ago and settled in Los Angeles at the age
of 40 years, beginning the practice Of law,
and rapidly rising to a prominent place
among the legal fraternity. Mr. Ganafll
was a genial, wholesouled gentleman, the
soul of honor and a man who acquired and
retained the friendship and admiration of
all who came in contact with him. He left
Los Angeles in 1889, removing to Spokane,
Washington, where he quickly secured a
lucrative practice. He was connected by
marriage with the old Mcdaniel family of
Marysville. and the Nichols family Of this

entertainments that our old Los Angeles
families remember pleasantly. His death
will be regretted by large circle of friends
in this city, who unite with the family In
mourning the loss Of a good citizen and

HoWE's HOWL
About Transaction in Which Obear
Did Him Up Some

W. H. Obear was made the defendant in
a suit yesterday in which e. T. Howe sues
him for $500. j. Smith Briggs of Ventura
sold to Obear in 1896 $50 acres of land in the
Ranches Ojai and Santa Ana. Obear had
previously told Howe that the land could
be bought for $4,000, of which one-half was
to be cash and the balance secured by
mortgage. and proposed that they Jointly
purchase the tract. Howe consented to let
Obear carry on the negotiations because of
the allegation by the defendant that
Briggs temper was peculiar, and thereaf-
ter signed a promissory note for $4,000
jointly with Obear and paid $4,000 cash.
The plaintiff now claims that the defend
ants representations were false and that
he traded the land with Briggs for four lots
IN this city worth about $4,000. besides CIV
ing him the mortgage jointly subscribed.
For this reason he now wants half of the
difference between the amount which
Obear claims to have paid and what he did
really pay to Briggs.

clear from Maier's evidence whether he
had paid over the money to Hoffman be-
cause the latter had threatened to prose-
cute him or with view to have some wit
nesses see the money change hands so
that the defendant might be arrested.
1t became quite clear that If Hoffman
was guilty of anything it was merely of an
attempt at extortion, and at this stage As
sistant District Attorney Williams an
nounced that if the defendant would plead
guilty to that charge, which is only mis-
demeanor, he would move to dismiss in the
present proceedings Hoffman and his
lawyers were granted permission to con-
suit, and after few minutes signifled to
the court that they could not consent to
the district attorneys proposition.
At the conclusion Of Mr.. Maier's testi-
mony the case went over till today.

others for dissolution of partnership yes
terday. The defendants In the present ac-
ton made an application to the superior
court some time ago for permission to
change the name of the Rosenstein- Cohn

corporation. but merely a partnership
in which he owned a one-fourth interest.
This matter Is awaiting hearing in De-

Meanwhile Cohn has brought suit for a
dissolution Of partnership In the shares Of
the corporation and an accounting, and
that the shares shall be adjudged to be the
