To his inexperienced wife,

Such fashionable life,
And devote more time to cooking
How to mix and when to bake
Then perhaps you might make pastry

GEN. MILES TO BE in COMMAND.

Washington, April 15.-Decidedly
the most warlike step taken by the
War Department in preparing for
the possibility Of an encounter with
Spain was inaugurated today when
orders were issued for the concentra-
tiOn at four points in the South of
six regiments Of cavalry, twenty-five
regiments of infantry, and the light
batteries Of five regiments OF artil
lery. At chickamauga there will be
six regiments of cavalry and the
light batteries of five regiments of
artillery; at New Orleans, eight regi.
ments of infantry; at Tampa, seven
regiments of infantry, and at Mo-
bile seven r. eiments of infantry.
Since the civil war no such proper
tion of the army has been modified,
and the movement itself is the best
evidence of the gravity of the situa
tion as looked upon by the Presi
dent and his advisors.
TO BECOME ACCLIMATED.
The determination to rendezvous
the troops in the South where they
can be acclimated to the conditions
OF more tropical climate has been
under consideration by tie Presi-
dent and his cabinet for sometime.
1t was not until today, however,th
the President, in view of the enor.
expense which would be entailed.
felt justified in taking this step.
When Secretary Alger returned
from the Cabinet meeting he at
once called into conference General
Miles and Adjutant General Corbin
and acquainted them with the result
of the Cabinets deliberations. There
were hurried consultations in which
the Quartermaster 6 neral,
who has charge of the
transportation of the troops, the
the Commissary- General, who looks
after their subsistence, and repre-
sentatives in Washington of the va
rious railroads running to the South,
participated.
The heavy batteries Of artillery in
the five regiments will remain at
their present posts.
NEW REGIMENTS NOT READY.
Tue two new regiments Of artil-
lery recently authorized by Congress
have not been recruited to their full
strength and in addition are not
we'll equipped with horses and other
necessary requisites, and therefore
are not included in today's orders.
The department has so distributed
the twenty-five regiments of infan-
try at such convenient places on the
gulf that they will be accessible for
transportation to Cuba. Proposals
Lave been invited from steamship
.ompauies for char tering vessels to
Ithe government for this work.
Instructions to the commanding
officers of the regiments ordered to
move were sent out late today with
directions to be put into effect as
soon as possible.
1t is the confident expectation OF
the officials that the movements in
} some places will begin to morrow.
The railroad facilities, the officials
Sey, are more than ample to meet
the demands of the occasion and no
trouble will be experienced in mo
5ilizing this large body of mer az the
places designated within a reasona
BILE space Of time.

An Alleged Scare

There is some advantages in the use of
the word alleged" in order to avoid libel.
A reporter had been incautious in a
statement, possibly true enough, but
had been warned to be more careful.
The reporter in this way extended the
application of alleged:
ALLEGED MAD DOG SCARE AT
HAMPSTEAD.
An alleged mad dog, said to be the
property of an alleged butcher named
Frost of Atlantic Avenue, is alleged to
have broken his chain yesterday after
noon and attacked the alleged daughter
of Thomas Drewsbury, who claims to be
tailor in the same street. The girl is
alleged to have been treated by DR.. Tup-
per, an alleged local practitioner, for the
alleged severe bites in the hands and
legs 1t is further alleged that the al
legged butcher was last year sent to gaol
for a week by the alleged magistrate
of the Northwestern police court for not
keeping his alleged ferocious dog under
proper control.
That young man had the bump of eau
ton too abnormally developed, and he
was seen no more in the sub editor s
room.-The Nineteenth Century.

kept on humming right along for a mat

kept on humming right along for mat
ter of nearly two hours. Speakers for
and against the resolution took the floor.
A motion to lay Mr.. Keller's resolution
on the table was not adopted until a
very long wrangle, in which the Ma
chiavelian hand of the San Francisco
Call was plainly seen at work in the per-
son of one of it's local en-
ployes, said not to be men,
ber of the club, who in his best de-
batting society voice labored hard with
the assembly to persuade them that the
65 cents per month, of
which 30 cents go to the solicitor during
this momentous epoch of bargain sales
and canned salmon-was the only news
paper friend which was left to the dis
tressed Angeleno.
Mr.. Kinney showed the folly of a
course which would result in the en-
dorsement Of Republican papers, espe-
cially such a one as the Call, whose
proprietor aimed to be a rival in the
coming senatorial contest against our
own Steve White.
1t was evident from the first that the
wiser and more conservative Jefferson
ians present did not favor the resolution
so incautiously sprung on the club They
were in the majority and as soon as Mr..
J. H. Humphreys had seconded Mr. Mel
Wits motion to table it, it was relegated
to oblivion, and peace reigned again.

A Land Overriden by Jurists

Berlin-The large number of acct
dents on the Prussian state railways has
led to motion emanating from the Lib
erals that the reichstag shall inquire into
the causes of, and the means of avoid
ing such disasters. The government is
in an extremely awkward position, for
despite all it's measures of precaution
accidents of no little gravity occur every
week; the last one was in the vicinity of
Berlin. The root of the evil lies in the
appointment of jurists instead of en-
gineers to the railway administration.
The railway minister is a jurist, his
under secretary of state is jurist, and
nearly all the sectional chiefs are jurists.
There is general demand among the
people for complete change of system
in the administration of the railways,
but Prussia is land of LII. DIS, and
engineers have to take a back seat

BoWLINES OUT OF DATE
Some of the Mistakes Made by the
Landlubbers

when man was drunk, said the Old
Skipper, sailors said, in the times when
there were sailors, that he was three
sheets in the wind which means, nauti-
cally, that the old hooker has charge o1
herself. 1 have heard the poetical lub-
bers, who, with the help of dictionaries
pretend to be regular foremast hands
say of a man who couldn't navigate that
he was sailing along a bowline.' Bow
lines are out of date aboard ship, and
have been for many years. Centuries
ago the sails of a ship hoisted much and
spread little, like a coffee bag. Then
ships carrying square sails could not go
to windward. About the time of Sir
Walter Raleigh, or little before, mer-
chant vessels began to use the bowline,
and by it's use the big square-riggers,
when on a wind, were able to wallow
along in good weather about four knots
an hour and lay within seven or eight
points Of the wind. Smaller vessels, with
their lateen sails, such as Columbus
sailed in, could make better weather. as
the yardarm of the lateen sail keeps
the weather leech taut. There were no
jibs in those days. The foremast was
stepped in the eyes of the ship
1.-THE bowline proper is attached to the
weather edge of the sail by a bride,
leads forward, and is used to keep the
sail steady when the ship is close-hauled.
You will find that definition in the die
tionaries. Notwithstanding that, it is
correct. The change in the shape of the
square sails used aboard ship nowadays
has made the bowline superfiuous. On
the old-fashioned square-rigged vessel
the sails would drop, or hoist, as much as
they would spread; that is, they were
cut as long as they were wide Such a
shape would keep full only when sailing
before the wind. The square
sails of a modern ship are from three to
four times as wide as they are deep, and
when they are extended between the
yards, and the yards are braced up, the
canvas stands as stiff as board. The
fore edge needs no bowline to keep it
straight or steady. 1t makes me weep

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Five Directors Are Elected From the
Stockholders Committee

The Chamber of Commerce has been
requested to place an exhibit at the In
ternational Health Exposition, which is
to be held in the Industrial Building,
New York, from April 25th to May 31st
of this year. The matter will be laid
before the Board of Directors at its next
meeting. The exhibit, If made would be
in the form of oranges, lemons, dried
fruits and nuts and such other Califor-
MIA products as find a market in the
East
Speaking of expositions generally,
Secretary Virgins says that the results
from the exhibits California has made
are marvellous. For instance, there had
been no sale for California oranges until
the California exhibit was installed at
the Atlanta Exposition. That year one
commission man sold one and half car
loads of oranges. Last year. through
one house in this city, he sold twenty
four carloads, and this year the amount
bids fair to be between twenty-five and
thirty-fve carloads.
New exhibits at the Chamber of Com
merce are oranges from the Fullerton
Chamber of Commerce; Strawberries
from N. c. Peck and G. w. Goodrich:
Seeding grape fruit, Gulick Bros.
At the election held yesterday after
noon for the purpose of selecting five
members of the stockholders commit
tee to act as directors for the ensuing
year. the following were unanimously
chosen: M. j. Newmark, /. N. Van
Nuys, James H. Adams, Louis F. Vet
ter and l.. A. Croft. The new directors
will take their seats February 10th.

1t is awkward, it is embarrassing, to
put on record, but it is also true, that
down at the poultry show the gentle
men are making all the noise. And
such noise! Fully one-half of the 600
birds are roosters, and every mothers S
son of them is doing his little best to out
crow the rest. From the bass
tuba roar of the male buff
Cochin to the piccolo squeak of the mas
culine black Cochin bantam-all the IA
miliar gradations of sound that are SO
reminiscent of daybreak and out of
doors are caroming from wall to ceiling
of the store on Main street where the
exhibition was opened yesterday.
On either side of the entrance are large
show windows, that are transformed
into miniature sylvan dells, with large
boughs of evergreen, date and fan-palm
branches, ferns, brakes, English ivy
and moss. In one is a little summer
house, where some Illinois squirrels
play the day away. Some handsome
black Langshan hens and roosters and
a flock of pigeons also occupy it.
In the center of the other window is a
miniature lake, and in solitary grandeur
the three inhabitants float proudly upon
its surface or march, with large, bow

laced Wyandots, blue Andalusians, in
which variety the cocks are supplied
with very swagger black feather top
coat.
Then there are the Houdans, with their
dissipated, disheveled crests; the white
crested black Polands and the bantams,
the miniature black Cochin, silver Sea-
bright, buff Cochin and a variety of
game bantams, all wearing that air of
extreme Importance and exaggerated
dignity that usually goes with the
pocket edition of anything, feathered
or unfeathered, that is alive.
If you don't like chickens, there are
pigeons galore of all kinds, Muscovy and
Pekin ducks and Toulouse geese, and if
you prefer four to two legs, there are
Belgian hares, Himalayan rabbits and
Persian calves.

menced his duties as judge yesterday,
and the awards may be ready to publish
by tomorrow.
The exhibition is the ninth annual
poultry show of the Los Angeles County
Poultry association. 1t is held at 326-

evening, and will not close until the end

SAM SHAW HONORED
A Popular Actor Is Initiated into the
Mysteries of the N. A. T. S. E.'s

Mysteries of the N. A. T. S. E.'s
At the Silver Republican club last
night Sam T. Shaw was the recipient of
an honor which but five other actors
in the United States have been accorded,
although many of the leading ones have
aspired TO it. 1t was the presentation of
an honorary membership in the National
Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees.
The credentials of initiation were in the
form of solid silver travelling card of
the order, and accompanying it was pre-
sented handsome gold badge emblem
attic of the order.
During his engagement at the Bur-
bank Mr.. Shaw has shown so MANY fa
vors to the stage hands that the local
branch of the national organization de-
cided to give him some token of it's ap-
probation of his many kindnesses. The
presentation last night was the result.
In the basement of the Silver Repub
ilcan club, after the performances at
the several theaters of the city, the mem
bers of the order assembled, and as soon
as Mr. Shaw appeared he was presented
with the membership card and the med
al Nearly all the members of the or
DER are also members of the club, and
for that reason that place was selected.
During the evening score of new men,
bers were added to the club rolls Re-
freshments were served, and it was not
until an early hour this morning that
the guests of the club departed. Joe
Jefferson was the first actor to whom
an honorary membership into the alH-
ance was given.
