OurseIves and Our CIothea.

Happily" said Mr.. stoggle5y, I'VE
do not realize the change in our per-
sonal appearance as We would grow
older, the change is so slight from day
to day; and then, as matter of fact,
we are, to ourselves at least, ever as
young as we feel. But it is not SO
about our clothes; we cannot make
them even feel young. as they grow
old, to say nothing of keeping them
looking so-they will get worn and
threadbare. And we are likely to for
get about that, and to give no thought
to the impression they may make upon
other people. There We make mis-
take. We should keep an eye on our
apparel; and, as to trimness, at least,
have that in keeping not with our gray
head, but with our fresh and ever
youthful heart. IN. Y. Sun.

NO APPROPRIATION.
Anti-Civil Service Reforners Victorious
in the House.

'h 'ihO hOuse'
Washington, Jan. 9.-The anti-ciyil
service reformers scored a victory in
the house today. The executive lepis.
lative and judicial appropriation bill
was taken up for consideration, and
then, when the appropriation for the
civil service commission was reached.
Evans made a motion to strike il ont
This motion has been made annually
1or dozen years or more, but invari-
ably failed. But today the opponents
OF the law laid great stress on the fact
that they could not get decisive vote
upon the proposition, and were there
fore compelled to seek its notification
in this manner. Even these appeals
tailed to bring out the full strength of
the opposition, though the motion to
strike out carried by a narrow margin,
81 to 81. This was in committee of
the whole, where no record was made
of the vote. Moody gave notice that
he would demand a record vote in the
house, where the friends of the civil
service law expect to reverse the deci-
sion.
When the senate convened today the
resolution offered yesterday by Hoar.
calling on the president for information
as to the instructions to the commits
sioners who negotiated the treaty of
Paris, together with all correspondence
and reports relating to their work, was
laid before the senate. Chairman
Davis, one of the commissioners, asked
that it be referred to the foreign reia-
tions committee, but Hoar insisted
that the senate had as much right to
such information as the members of
the foreign relations committee. and
that the president should determine
whether the senate should have it.
The resolution was adopted in secret
session. In support of the resolution
offered some time ago by Vest, in oppo-
sition to expansion, Caffery delivered
an extended speech.
At the conclusion OF Caffery's argu-
ment, Morgan announced, on behalf
of the Nicaragua canal committee, the
acceptance in modified form of the
amendments offered by Berry before
the holidays to the pending canal bill.
The amendments were not passed upon
by the senate.

MISSIONARY OUTRAGE.
Catholic Priest Brutallv Treated in a
Chinese Village.

Berlin, Jan. 9.-Letters received here
from Kiao Chou, the German fortified
settlement in the province of Shang
Tung, China. give details of an outrage
upon Father Stenz, the German Cath
olic missionary, November last. The
missionary was about to leave Tie-Tau,
province of Shang Tung. owing to the
Christian feeling. Ending him
self confronted by crowds of Chinese
who were clamoring for the destruction
of the Christians, he took refuge in a
hut, but he was dragged out, his cloth
ing torn from his back, and he was
struck with sticks and pricked with
knives and lances and his beard torn
out. The Chinese threatened to fay
him alive. The following day, his
prosecutors prepared to hang him by
the wrists. Finally, mandarin in
terfered in his behalf, but compelled
him to leave the district with prom
ise never to return.

A Los Angeles Times man writes
to his paper that throughout great
pant of Southern California the olive
crop is this year complete failure.
At Fallbrook, in San Diego county,
the large acreage of olive trees on the
Red Mountain ranch represents a con-
siderable production of the fruit,
though neighboring orchards are bar
rem. Beginning at Santa Paula, and
extending westward through Santa
Barbara county, there is territory en-
bracing several large orchards, in
which the trees are laden with heavy
crops. This constitutes the production
of Southern California for the present
year.

PACIFIC COAST NEWS
Items of General Interest Cleaned
From the Thriving Pacific
States.
The Country's Apple Crop.

HO apple
In connection with demand in the
East and in Europe for our fruit, we
quote from the Orange Judd Farmer in
regard to the extent of the apple crop:
This crop in the United States is small
Ter than it has been since reliable sta
tistics have been collected. The total
supply from the 1898 crop of the Unit
ed States is $4,000, 900 barrels, as COM
pared with something over 40, 900, 900
barrels last year and 70, 100000 in the
record-breaking crop of 1896. The fail
ure. is widespread, reaching from the
Pacific coast to Maine, and in none of
the states does the output of fruit ap-
proach an average. (This is not true,
however, where the crop is not fail
ure). In the great apple states of the
Central West the crop is almost total
failure, although the situation in Mich
lgan is better than elsewhere, having
about tWo-thirds of the bumper crops
of 1896. New York has only one-fifth
of a full crop. The failure is attributed
to the fact that during the blooming
season there was an excessive rainfall,
which washed out the pollen and pre-
vented proper fertilization by insects,
while cold wave added to the injury,
and subsequent moist, humid weather
was very favorable to the development
of fungus diseases. The Ontario crop
is decidedly short. The crop oi Europe
is reported below the normal.

Idaho's Mineral Output.

The mines of Idaho have shared the
general prosperity of the state. In
every section of the commonwealth new
strikes were made during the year just
closed, and many of them have de-
velOped into promising properties.
The states mineral production for 1898
is $l,659, $40 more than 1T was last
year, and $3,663,61 more than in
1896. j. w. Cunningham, superin-
tendent of the United States assay office
at Boise, has made an estimate of the
production of the state for the past
year, upon which the foregoing COM
parison is based. The following gives

MEDAL FOR MARTINEZ.
Tribute to a Hero Who Served at
SibOney.

SibOney.
Frank Martinez, member of the band OF
the 18th United States Infantry, will soon
be the recipient of a handsome Tiffany
medal which has been received in this
city Martinez, although not an immune,
volunteered as a nurse in the yellow fever
hospital at Siboney during the Santiago
campaign. He was placed in charge Of a
ward occupied by number of officers of
the army and by newspaper men who were
at the front. About twenty-five of his pa
tients who survived decided to reward the
brave fellow. All contributed to the pur-
chase Of the pretty medal, which has been
wrought out of solid gold. 1t is fashioned
in Maltese cross pendent from an en-
graved bar bearing the word Santiago" in
red enamel. A hospital red cross on the
medal is wreathed with green leaves. The
four arms of the cross are lettered with the
following: 'Siboney, Cuba, July, 1885,
A number of Washington newspaper men
are interested in the presentation, as well
as several officers who are now stationed
in the city. The medal will be forwarded
quarters of his regiment. The recipient of
this memento has quite a history in the
regular army, and is well known in the
ranks a gallant fellow. He is the last
living person to have seen General Custer
before the famous massacre. He was a
bugler in the 7th Cavalry at that time and
was dispatched by Custer with orders 10
Captain Benteen to bring up the remainder
of the regiment. The bugler was the first
to return the following morning, and there
saw the dead general.

Local Telephone Rates.

Replying to an inquiry of State Senator
John T. MCGOWAN of Minnesota the Dis
trict Commissioners have forwarded him a
copy of the act of June 30, 1898, regulating
the rates to be charged for telephones in
the District. The Commissioners state
that at is believed. however, that these
rates were not based on accurate informa-
ton as to the expenses of maintaining the
telephone service in the city of Washington.
An investigation was made afterward, but
the report has not yet been submitted to
Congress.
THE telephone company claims that the
rates are unjustly low, and upon their re-
sistfng the law test case was brought
into the courts, and the matter is now
pending in the Court of Appeals. The COM
pany is prohibited from stringing any addi-
tional overhead wires excepting house con-
necuons, and most of their conduits are
under ground. The service of the company
where metallic circuits are furnished is be-
heved to be very good"
