The proceedings connected with the
capture of the port and city of Ponce
by the American forces under Gen.
Miles are wholly without precedent
in the history of war.
Never before have the people of a
conquered city Immediately offered
the hospitality Of the city to the con-
queror. Never before have the ladies
in their carriages and the young peo-
pie on their bicycles hocked to
the port to witness its surrender to
the navy of the invader.
These n incidents for which his
tory furnishes no precedents, but the
people of this country have a habit of
making their own p%recedents.
No other country has ever under
taken to ship home at it's W ex-
pense a captured army, as we have
done with the Santiago garrisons.
No nation has ever settled a great
civil war, as we did ours, without
bloOdshed after surrender.
No nation has ever conquered
another and then paid full cash value
foriall coded territory, as we did in
dealing with Mexico.
Lastly, no nation has ever thor
oughly whipped another and reduced
it to helplessness, and then mad e a
perfectly fair and just treaty with it,
as we are going to do with Spain.

But, my dear, you are SO pretty that
I really cannot see how your beauty
needs any addition in the shape of
such expensive finery as you wish,
said Mr.. Wickwire. No I am not, re-
piled Mrs. Wickwire. If I was so
pretty as you pretend I am I would
not have to argue so long to get a new
dress.

Fairbrother and daughters, formerly
of Barton Landing, Mr.. Oscar Foss,
and Mr.. Vernon Kimball, son of the
late Rev. John Kimball.
Among the many interesting things
in and around San Francisco | will
mention the Lick Museum Of Natural
History and Academy Of Sciences.
About the building we saw posted
notices of courses of free lectures,
which would fill with delight the heart
of every lover OF scientific research.
There we saw a Mammoth, a fac sim
lie of the one found imbedded in the
ice in Siberia, in a perfect state Of
preservation. Fortunate for the rep
~utation of the elephant that this spe-
cies of animal has become extinct, for
a Jumbo would look inferior in com
parison. Another place Of interest is
the Sutro Baths, where one can enjoy
the delights of sea bathing under
cover, and a swim without danger,
and many times accompanied by fine
music. In this large building, 500 feet
long, there r swimming tanks which
will accommodate 1000 bathers, while
above, seats are arranged in the form
Of an ampitheatre for 300 spectators
with room also for many promenad-
ers. Under the same roof is quite an
extensive natural history and curio
museum and a large collection of rare
shells. About the entrance palms,
plants and shrubs are artistically ar
ranged, giving it the appearance of a
conservatory. Near this is the Cliff
House, also built by MI. Adolph Sutro.
It is a strikingly handsome building,
situated on q high and rocky bluff ov-
erlooking the ocean, and the three
immense conical shaped rocks, where
hundreds of seals or sea lions congre-
gate and climb out on the rocks to
bssk in the sunlight. There seemed
to be no time when there were not
scores of them out on the rocks, or
struggling among themselves to get
thereon. found untiring interest in
watching the strange movements of
these curious, marine mammals. This
affords refreshment for the mind, and
they say the cuisine of the Sutro man
sion is we'll nigh perfect, for the re-
freshment of the body. Sutro Heights
is the residence and private park of
Mr.. Sutro. Here he has converted
twenty acres of sand hills into a beau
tiful landscape garden with statuary,
trees, plants, and Towering shrubs
from nearly all parts of the world.
This millionaire. who has done SO
much for the city, was considered in
curably i'll when we were there, and
since hat time has died.
Of course we were interested in the
coming of that useful commodity,
hard cash, and SO we must needs visit
the United States Mint. Uncle Sans
officials were very courteous and went
through their tiresome part Of show
ing and explaining the whole process,
from the melting Of the bricks to the
final weighing, counting and packing
of the perfect coins. They we're coin
ing silver dollars the day we were
in, so we did not see the big values
represented hat we should if it had
been a gold day, although the labor
process was the same. A TRAVELLER.
