ELECTION DAY.

Today is one of the most attive days
in the calendar of the municipal year.
1t is the occasion of the regular Spring
election, when aspirants for Office,
municipal and township, seek to graf
ify their hopes and ambitions.
The food of week ago was such an
absorbing affair that the matter Of
election was almost lost sight of; and
in the few days since the candidate
and he is numerous quality-has been
putting forth that energy which looks
toward success.
In the large array of talent that Of
fers itself on the altar of political sac
rifice there is quality to suit many
ideas. Think of seven men, all with
intentions of the most exalted order,
offering themselves with the hope of
being accepted-for the cfice of Mayor.
Certainly here is meat for apyone's
palate, and the question of who shall
receive highest endorsement by the
peoples franchise is most interesting.
The race for the prize of City En-.
gineer promises to be very pretty
event. Three are in at the start and
there is much and varied speculation
as to the identity of him who shall
come first under the wire.
For these two places there seems tc
be .he liveliest contest, although in
some of the wards the justifable as
piration for the Office of Councilman
has precipitated much hustling.

FOUND HIS WAY HOME.
A Lonely Fox Hound That Travelled
Distance of Five Hundred
Miles in Six Weeks.

"Did you ever hear of a dog travelling
from Mississippi 10 Kentucky?" said
gentleman from Houstonville recently
to New York Telegram reporter,
without human companion?
"Well. heard Col Tee Carpenter tell
of o wonderful hound of his. He says
that some years ago he sold hound to
a gentleman of Corinth, Miss. The dog
broke away from the expressman on
the train when in northern Mississippi
and was not heard of for some time.
The Mississippi gentleman wrote to
Carpenter and asked what was the rea-
son the dog had not been sent. Car
penter looked the matter up and found
that the dog had jumped out of the ex
press car while the train was running
at full speed. About six weeks after
ward the hound showed up at Carpen-
ter's house in Lincoln county. He had
come home alone, being guided by that
peculiar instinct with which dumb ami
mails are gifted. He had travelled fully
500 miles. The dog wns never of any
value therea fter and be was completely
prostrated by the trip. He looked like
a skeleton when he got back to Ken
tucky, and could never afterward run
fast enough to keep up with Carpenters
other fox hounds"

AN IMPERIAL INVENTOR.
It Is Said Emperor william VIII
Give the World q New Elec-
tricaI Car.

The career of American electric street
railway apparatus in Germany may be
destined to be short and merry one,
for the news has come very circumstan-
TALLY of late that the emperor himself
proposes to invent new electrical car
for Berlin, and if for Berlin, then
Germany. a few years back Prince
Henry. the emperor's brother, re-
peated all the sensational Tesla
experiments with currents of high
voltage and high frequency, and
not many months ago we noted the fact
in these columns that the emperor, the
prince and some high army officers
were taking a special electrical course
OF study. This all goes to confirm the
runor, says the Electrical Engineer.
We are sure that his majesty can help
the electric railway art materially, for
it has been said that he has a rolling eye
of genius just like Edison's, although
VIC have never seen Mr.. Edison roll his
eye. unless a wink is included in the ex-
preston. But what worries us is that
we don't see where the emperor is TO get
the time: he is so busy. There is Tur-
key to be patronized; Greece to be
snu5bed; Russia to be hattcred: France
to be fouted; England to be ins,lted,
and China to be cut up, all of which he
is giving personal attention to consci-
entiously. But his majesty is also
otherwise engaged. in orator.. music,
art, the drama, yachting and a few
other diversions.

GREAT MEN AND POLITICS.
:, America Were Pronounced

Somebody says that Lincoln was
partisan. OF course he was partisan.
He was republican from the party's
foundation until his death, and he was
a whig previously. Every statesman
who accomplishes anything is neces-
sarily partisan. Popular opinion can
not be aseertained nor the popular will
carried out except through the medium
of parties, says the St. Louis Globe
Democrat. Ever since the foundat ton
of the government, save for few years
In the so-called "era of good feeling"
during Monroe,s presidency, there were
two great parties in the country, and
everybody who counted for anything in
politics belonged 20 one or other of
these parties. Every president has been
a partisan. Washington was one,
though many writers pretend he was
not-that he held himself outside and
above each of the parties of his day.
Washington belonged to the party Of
Hamilton, Adams, Morris and the
Pinckneys, the party which constructed
| the framework OF American institu-
tions, and which laid down the lines on
which the government has been oon-
Quoted by every party which has con-
trolled it-federalist, democratic, ma.
tiopal, republican, whig and republican
He was federalist. Lincoln was ar

tisan. But he was never a sectionist
nor a demagogue.

that the copse is practically impene-

A Sicilian deputy had been offended
by another deputy, and the two met at
this spot to fight. Just as they crossed
swords the Sicilian deputy uttered

about to fall, and his seconds rushed

sharp twig from one of the trees had

GIANTS OF PATAGONIA.
The Tehuelches Average But Little
Under Six Feet,

SIX Eeet.
The tribes to the east of the Cordil-
lcras, in southern Patagonia, belong to
Araucanian stock, and are superior
race, says the Boston Transcript. The
Tehuelches-as they call themselves
of southern and eastern Patagonia are
the people whose unusual stature gave
rise to the fables of early days to the
effect that the natives of this region
were giants, averaging nine or ten feet
in height. 1t is fact they are the tall
est human beings in tbe world. the men
averaging but slightly less than six
feet, While individuals of four to six
inches above that mark are not uncom-
mon. They are in reality by no means
savages, but somewhat civilized bar
barians. They nre almost unacquaint-
ed with the use of firearms, notwith-
standing some contact with the whites,
but they have plenty of horses and
dogs.
Unsurpassed hunters, they capture
the guanaco and the rhea, or South
American ostrich, and from the skins
of these and other animals they make
clothes and coverings for their tents.
They make beautiful "capes" or man
files, of fur and feathers, which are
highly priced by Europeans and find a
ready market, most of the proceeds
being spent for bad whisky, which is

MODERN SCIENCE.

for the Twentieth Gem
tury Are Broad.
1t may be that we are, with respect to
the coming century, in the same imma-
ture mental condition in which the peo-
pie of the eighteenth century were with
regard to the nineteenth, says the Pop
ular Science Monthly. If some one in
the preceding century had dared to pre-
dict the wonderful achievements of the
nineteenth, he would probably have
been declared fool, and treated as
was Robert Mayer, in Germany, in this
century, who, after the discovery of the
law of the conservation of force, was
put into an insane asylum. A like fate
might befall the man who should dare
now to cast horoscope for the twen-
tieth century, and to predict the prog
ress of the human mind in the various
domains OF scientific research. After
all, those may be right who, in spite of
all those acquisitions on which. we so
Justly pride ourselves, are of opinion
that we are still moving In only the
initial steps, in the leading strings of
evolution, and that we are Yet very far
from the goal of those material and
ideal aims which the human race in its
unremitting onward struggle is des-
tined to attain, or to show its capacity
of attaining. The great Sir Isaac New
ton used. perhaps, the most appropriate
simile when he compared men with
children who on the seashore are pick
Ing UP here and there curious pebble
or colored shell while the great'sea OF
truth lies still unexplored before them.
We can only conjecture as to the prob
able progress, as we cannot know which
position we occupy in the course of hu-
man evolution, whether we are still in
its beginnings or we'll advanced. This
lies hidden in the bosom of the future.

MARRY CHINESE.

BntO SlaVery.
The steamer Empress of China brings
mail advices of disgraeeful scandals In
Shanghai. British consuls there have
discovered that Chinese youths at
taehed to the legation bad been mar
rying English girls. In fact, 1t had
been fad among girls 20 teach these
celestials English and than marry
them, says the San Francisco Cali.
The Chinese youths, with no sanctity
for the marriage law, treated their
English wives as playthings for the
hour, and as soon as they got them
to China sold them. If the girls re-
belled their Chinese husbands left them
with nothing, not even the clothes upon
their backs. They locked them in
empty houses to scream till some one
came to help them. In no single in
stance did these girls write their rel-
atives in England telling of their shame.
Their parents had forbidden their
alliance with Cinnamon, and they suf-
fered degradation in silence. The press
has taken the matter up, and will re-
quest the British government to take
some steps 10 prevent undesirable in
ternational marriages.

CENTRAL COMMITTEE MEETING
The Woman's Educational Movement
Resumes Work

The central commiatee of the Woman s
Educational movement met yesterday morn
ing in the parlors of the Nadeau, the presi-
dent, Mrs. b. &. Stevens, in the chair. The
minutes of the last meeting were read by the
secretary, Mrs. R. H. F. Variel. This is the
first session held since the summer vacation
and the meetings in most of the wards hav'
ing been suspended during the hot season,
plan for the winters work and to rekindle
the enthusiasm that was aroused last spring.
Reports were read from the various dis
tricts. Meetings have been held regularly
during the summer in the Fifth district, OF
which Mrs. Lonstreth is chairman. En-
couraging reports were given also from Pico
Heights.
Mrs. Rice made brief report of the work
done by the committee appointed at pre-
vious meeting to confer with the board of
freeholders. The consensus of opinion ex-
pressed was that the immediate work be-
fore the various districts, at their meetings is
for the women to acquaint themselves with
the provisions of the new city charter and
to use their influence in its adoption by the
voters.
There was also some discussion of Sloyd
work in the public schools. 1t is optional
with the girls to take sloyd with the boys,
but as it will not be as useful to them as to
boys, the opinion expressed was that girls
should be given an opportunity to substi-
tute cooking if they desire, which will serve
q much better purpose in their future well
fare. The district meetings will be re-
sumed and central committee will meet in
one month at the same place.

MINERAL CLAIM JUMPED
Complaints Filed in the Federal

A suit for injunction was filed in the
United States circuit court by a. N. David

ment company against X. A. Calkins, C. G..
Calkins, Gus Carlberg ct al. The complain
ants constitute corporation doing business
in Los Angeles county and the defendants
are residents of Kern county. Complainants
allege that on February 2, 1894. one George
4. Bowers discovered vein of mineral bear
ing quartz in Kern county, on which he To-
Gated claim, erected stone monuments and
otherwise complied with the full require
ments of the law.
On October s, 1898, bowers sold the claim
to complainants for $500. Subsequent to
that date defendants took possession of the
claim and have been extracting ore, blasting
cut mineral rock worth S25 per ton, without
which plaintiffs claim, the land would be
of no value. They therefore pray for writ
of injunction restraining defendants from
interfering in their ownership and from
doing work of any character on said claim
