A BOYS TROUBLES.
Why Vivian Pratt Used q Stone on
Another Lad.

Vivian Pratt, IL years DID, charged
with battering Albert Holman, ID
year-old boy, was discharged. Justice
Anderson had inquired into the case,
and found that the Pratt boy, whose
parents only recently came to town,
has had a hard time of it. He was
initiated into city life by having his
head cut with a stone thrown by
boy named Wilson, and on recovering
he found it necessary to fight his own
battles. He met all corners, giving or
taking years or weight, and he proved
a good one.
The lad admitted that he struck
young Holman with a stone, but said
he had done so only after having been
thrown into mud hole, and in order
to save himself from Holman, who was
after him with brickbat.

Human Ignorance.

A child was asked to name the princi-
pal organs of the human body, and this
was his reply: The organs of the body
are the heart, lungs and other utensils. >
The ignorance of many adults about the
human body is actually appalling Con-
stipation is considered nothing. Indiges-
ton is annoying, but nothing serious.

NEW BILLS.
Two Important Measures Intro
duced in the Senate Yesterday.

- ~~~S
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-Among the
bills introduced in the Senate to-day
were:
By Lodge-To provide for Geographic
communication between the United
States of America, the Hawaiian ISL
ands, Guam, the Philippines, Japan and
China, and to promote commerce. The
proposed measure authorizes the Post
master General to contract with an
American cable company for the pay
ment by the United States of not ex-
ceeding 100000 a year for twenty
years for the electrical transmission Of
official messages of the United States
to Honolulu, Guam, Manila, Hongkong
and some point in Japan. The cable
must be in operation by January /,
1903. The bill further provides for n
duplicate line of cable, in order that
there shall be no interruption of COM
munication. The amounts received by
the cable company from the United
States shall be used only for repairs
and renewals of cables, etc. The COM
pany must at all times be capable Of
fulfilling its contract, or forfeit the pay
ments by the United States, and if the
company fails to transmit the Govern
ment messages during a period of two
years the Governments obligation shall
cease. After twenty years Government
messages shall be transmitted at half
rates forever. In case of war the Gov
eminent may take possession of the
lines and stations of the company.

tary of the Navy to change the material

How About That Piano?

You have probably been putting off
buying one because you think you can't
afford to. Well, they do come high, if
you buy of some dealer who is merely
an agent for some large house. But if
you buy of us, you buy of the large
house itself, and save the agents profit.
We are the only house in Sacramento
buying and shipping pianos direct from
the factories in carloads. Make your
home pleasant and yourself and folks
happy by buying one of our fine pianos
for Christmas. We will make prices
and terms so that you can afford it.

Though there were intervals of profit
taking. causing an occasional setback in
prices. the late market showed plenty OF
bulish spirit. English c1bles showed
great strength. with the futures 5uS

weather news, reports OF still higher
prices for spot cotton, and receipts in
such volume as TO bear out small crop
estimates. Private wires declared that
the crop was showing up less fayorably
as the season progressed. The Govern
