French Municipal Socialism.

BY learning to manage the material
interests of single town, socialists are
preparing themselves for the admins
tration and direction of the affairs of
the whole of France. The administra-
tive capacity of the socialists has as
tonished their foes as much as it has
delighted their friends. Workers like
Dormoy, metal worker, and Carrette,
weaver, who in the whole of their
lives had never been masters Of EGO,
between 1892 and 1896 were at the head
of the administration of towns whose
yearly budget ranged from fS0,O0O to
100000, and have managed to effect
economies andgto bring about reforms.
For example, at Roubaix all the chill
dren of the communal schools, some
IL 600 in number, are in part given free
food and clothing by the socialist mu-
nicipalfty. They receive their dinner
consists of soup, as much bread as they
want, dish of vegetables, an ounce of
meat, boiled or roast, and a glass Of
beer; ard they are given complete
suit of clothes at the beginning of win
ter and summer. Carrette and his nlu-
nicipal councillors have found means to
meet the expense of these "cantines
seoaaires" without at all increasing the
taxes that weigh upon the workers.

SHELDON DENIES.
Says Barber Did Not Intrust Any
Money With Him.

sam Sheldon, a train transfer agent
In this city, will be .arraigned before
City Justice Davis to-day to answer 70
ment preferred by w. Barber.
Mr.. Barber has for many years been
employed in the railroad shops in this
city, and his statement to the police of
the causes leading up to the arrest OF
Sheldon, is interesting. According to
his story he owns property in Ell Dora
do County, the taxes on which for the
year 1898, was $9.40 Instead of send
ing the coin by express or through The
mail, Mr.. Barber decided to see a MEM
Der of the passenger crew of the Plac-
erville line and have him to- pay the
money. He says he accordingly went
to the depot, and seeing Sheldon In uni
form, took him to be the conductor of
the train and explained the matter
Sheldon, Mr.. Barber says, said he
would willingly do him the favor,
whereupon he handed him $40 and told
him to keep the change-60 cents. He
says that Sheldon kept the 60 cents and
all the rest of the money, and that the
taxes were not paid.
Mr.. Barber identified Sheldon as the
man to whom he entrusted his money,
and upon swearing out a warrant, he
was arrested by Officer Naghei.
The officers say that Sheldon denies
ever having received $40 or any other
sum from Barber for the purpose Of
paying taxes, aer for any other purpose

A LOBBYISTS FEE.
Glenn County Not Permitted to Pay
the Claim.

The Supreme Court has just rendered
a decision which discourages the prac-
tice of employing attorneys to fight
bills before the Legislature.
Glenn. County was carved out of Co
lusa County, and in 1898 a bill was be-
fore the Legislature to adjust money
matters between the divided counties.
The Supervisors employed f. S.
Sprague, an attorney of Sacramento, to
fight the passage of such a bill. The
measure was defeated and Sprague
presented a bill of 81, 900 for his ser
vices.
The Supervisors ordered the demand
paid, but the District Attorney brought
action to stay the Auditor from paying
the amount.
The lower court gave judgment for
the Auditor and Sprague. The SUI
prerne Court has now reversed that
judgment, holding that the Supervisors
had no power to hinder nor to employ
any one else to hinder legislation, and if
the contention of the board was sus-
tained there would be the spectacle of
a band of attorneys at every session
of the Legislature whose sole business
would be to attempt to influence MEM
bers against bills that were just and
sound.

Soldiers Idea Of Justice.

A story concerning our troops in
Manila is told by an English naval
officer, who was an eyewitness to the
occurrence. The city was quite
crowded. he says, with both Amer
lean and Spanish soldiers, and they
seemed to be on the friendliest terms.
AS was crossing one of the numerous
bridges across the Pasig River. I saw
a native Filipino spit in the face of a
Spanish officer, and then run to the
American sentinel, who was guarding
the bridge, demanding his protection.
1t was some time before the Filipino
could make himself understood. and
the sentry took some time to catch on
to what had been done, but you can
imagine my surprise when he handed
his gun to the Spanish officer and
caught the native by the nape of the
neck and the seat of his trousers and
pitched him off the bridge into the
Pasig River Then he calmly took his
gun from the Spanish officer and be-
gan pacing the beat as if nothing had
happened. The American soldier may
not be so military as his brother of
Europe, but he is made Of the right
Stuff."-Argonaut

John Aliens True Story.

1t is a. debatable question among his
friends whether John Allen depends
more upon memory or invention for his
inexhaustible fund of stories. Colonel
William r. Morrison, who is something
of story teller himself, once felt called
upon to explain Mr.. Aliens staying
powers, after a bout in which he and
the Mississippian had alternated in en-
tertaining party of railroad men
while the Interstate Commerce Com
mission was having sitting at Tupelo-
Il can't compete with John Allen,
said Colonel Morrison. apologetically,
because haven't the gift of magma
tion. My stories are true. They are
actual occurrences. Everybody in
Washington knows that John Aliens
stories are made up as he goes along.
Now, I once heard him tell of an army
experience that was pure fiction on it's
face. He said that a comrade and he
were lying behind a log while the bat
tie was going on in front of them. The
fighting was pretty hot, and Allen and
his comrade We're a good deal in doubt
as to how long that log would protect
them from the bullets. They got into a
discussion as to which should poke up
his head and take a view of the sur
roundiEgs. Finally, Allen says, his
comrade urged: John, you look and
see where the Yankees are. You know
you are a single man and haven't got
any family. Now" concluded Colonel
Morrison, that was something that
never happened, but I have heard Allen
tell it repeatedly and always raise
laugh"
There was a general smile at John
Aliens expense, and then Edward L.
Russell, the President of the Mobile
and Ohio Railroad. said: Colonel, you
are mistaken. That was a true story.
l was the other fellow behind that log"
