 Jerome reports the discovery of a petrifed man. This petrified human business Is quite an antiquated fake. The original discoverer of a petrified human, in California, died recently in Fresno. He created quite a sensation for a time, but afterward admitted that he manufactured the figure. This Jerome petrifaction had its feet out of tine ground when dis covered. It was probably troubled with cold feet. It weighs $50 pounds, but no one has been found yet who identifies it. The art of producing petrified humans, from cement. and mummified humans from paper ma che, has been advanced in recent years to a high state of perfection.
 The lecture by Mrs. E. H. McIn- tosh, of San Francisco, at the Bap- list church last night on Foreign Missions and Oriental Customs was very interesting, although not as largely attended as it should have been, on account of the numerous other entertainments in the city. Mrs. Mcintosh is sister of Rev. NJ. c. Harris, who has charge of the Jap anese missions on the Pacific coast and Hawaiian islands, and has been associated with him for some time and is well posted on this subject, and has a most pleasing and enter manner of presenting the sub ject, which is very close to her heart. She will make a lecturing tour of the country, travelling largely for the purpose of regaining her health, which has been somewhat broken by her close attention to her labors in San Francisco. She is accompanied by her 13-year-old son, who sang several songs in the Japanese Ian oTlaue.
