 The Bible which was used in the ceremonies beginning the celebration in this city of the fftieth anniversary of the state of California has q history that is very ip p.esesting. In f849 a young man ia coming across the plains found d pile of books by she side of the road with a stick stuck among them bearing a note telling travellers 70 help themselves. The young maa n searching through the old volumes found handsome Bible, which he con sidered shame to be left upon the areary desert He placed it in h1a pack and carried 1t to Sacramento. He presented it to Dr. R. H. Mcdonald. who at that time conducted a drug store in that city. Some time after the advent of the Bible into Sacramento meeting was called in that city fol the purpose of founding lodge of Masons. That was on Jan. 8, 1850, and the lodge was to be known as Connecticut Lodge, No. 75. It chancec that the meeting place was adjoining the premises occupied by Dr. Melon, aid. When it was convened it waa found that there was no Bible at hand with which to conduct the ceremonies and Dr. Mcdonald presented the book that had been given to him by the young man for the lodges use. On inc 18th of the following April the grand lodge of Masone was formed and fhe Bible again played an important part in the ceremonies After the form ation of the grand lodge the name o' .5onneet ,ut lodge was changed to Te- hama lodge, No. 8. but ever since it's establishment on Jan. 8, 1850, the Bi- b1e has remained in the possession cf the lodge R. o.

 Green Casey, a convict at San Quen tin, has won the admiration of all his fellow convcts at the prison for the novel. contrivance ne has invented il order to, make his escape from the pris, on walls some time ago, and through Sheriff Langdor Of SaHta Clara coucty the story hd5 leaked out, says the Sab Francisco Gail Casey was a kind ot trusty around tie prison grounds, anc while working in one of the grounds fp the vicinity or the prison he took II Into his head that he.Nould like to es- cape, and WAS beginning to tax his mlnd as to the most advantageous way 10 suit his purpose. As he was stroll Ing aroundi on the green grass which grows in abundance around the prison, an idea struck him that if he could initiate the grass by some means he could ellHde the watchful sentries and make good his escape. Through the Rid of his convict friends he procured some pieces of burlap, and with the aid of some rope made them into a long coat that would cover him completely When lying on the grass He then se- cured some wheat from the prison stable ane sowed it down carelessIy at one end of the prison grounds, and Watered it daily In few weeks the grass grew up through the sack coat. and before a great while the piece Of burlap was conformed Into grassy lawn. He was now ready to carry out his plans, and patiently waited an op, portunity.; At last he succeeded in get ting his new eontriYance. across to the northwest Of the prison, and in a few minutes was under his grassy coat. Slowly he erept along with. the clever ness of a worm, and from all appear ar1ces success would crown his efforts, But his progress was too rapid, and very soon he heard footsteps coming in his direction. The moving grass plat, which was slowly making it's way up the hillside soon came to a sudden standstill as the eye of a guard had noticed the grass moving and came to Investigate the phenomenon. A kick in the ribs apprised Casey that his plan bad. been discovered. The guard took Casey, and red shirt LOW covers his breast. .5ii::5't !

 Much of the Cum in the states Goshoa
 From tho Everglades.
 Florida is iH a fair way to beeQ10e the rival i'll eamphor production 6f China, Japan and !formosa. Hereto fore the world has derived it's supplies of that gum from the countries named, but Of the vast camphor forests that once existed ins these regions out a small portion remains. This is the direct result of the wantoh waste in the process praeticed for obtaining the gum from the tree. Cam1hor is usaal- ly obtained by boiling the chips of the wood and roots and bark in great kete tlea with water and condensing the Vo. latilized gum on rusbes suspended over the kettles. In this process the entire cree is cut down and even the roots dug up, but in Florida t was found that the gum could be commercially pro" duced from the leaves and tWigs. isey- enty-seven pounds of which yield ono pound of gum Hence the bearing tree need not be disturbed or injured In any way, as the foliage 1t bears is very dense and may be thinned down one. half without scarcely being noticed. The tree, besides, bears Q very great amount of pruning without injury It Is an evergreen, and makes three growths year-in April June and De- tober. The tree removes nothing from the soil, the gum being formed entifo- ly from the gases Of the atmosphere. and hence the leaves, when deprived of their camphor a1e returned to tho soil, constantly enricb the soil, which in time requires no fertil2ing what ever. Aside from its commercial uses the camphor tree Is one of the most ornamental ever cultivated, it's beautt- ful shape being e4ualed by the arbor- vitae only It's lower branches He on the ground. while the top forms per feet cone The flowers are small. but exceedingly pretty, while the leaves are of 9 beautiful pale, glossy green color. j.. |

Two Reasons Why People Do Noe "s

 The pulpit used to be ~the---ehiet means of instruction and of intellectual and moral E mutation for the people. The pulpit orator was the peoples or- ator. The pulpit has in great measure lost it's attractive power in this re- gard, says Popular Science. The daily and weekly press have greater lnfiu- ence :n public instruction. The multi plication of cheap books also takes from the pulpit large share Of its in- fuenee in this regard. Oratory in leg1s- lative bodies has to q great extent lost it's influence. It's place has been taken by simple, compact, tfme-saving state ments. often printed but not delivered. Committees do the work which used to be done after discussion before the public. So the people will not listen now to the pulpit orator of former gen. erations. They demand short, crisp ser. mons that bristle With points and arc practical and helpful. In other words, the oratorical and highly intellectual character of the pulpit, which used to attract worshipers, no longer attracts them. They feel That they can gel hore benefit fin this regard by reading in the comfort of the home Multi tudes Of people can ncl.longer be ins duced to attend church to be instructed by the minister or to get his Judgment OF topics of the time. or to be stirred by his. .eloqnences they can get all these things cheaper and easier by reading at home When, now, this fs ve-enforeed by the fact that multitudes dislike the doctrines of the church and resent them when they are preached, we can easily understand that church attendance should decline very greatls srom ais, reason.

NEW ORLEANS RACES.
Tommy O'Brien, IA so to Shot. Won
the Hurdle Race

The Crescent City Jockey Club of New
Orleans yesterday entertained the best
crowd of the meeting, If not in the history
of the track. The afternoon was given over
to the women, and they responded in num-
bers that taxed the clubs accommodations
to the limit.
Results were decidedly costly, as the win
ners. whit the exception of Admetus in the
tWo-mile race. were all at long prices
W. j. Baker was first of the days win
ners, with the exception of Admetus in the
of several weeks, and as he was loaded
down with heavy impost there was a dis
position to lay against him. The result
proved this to be unwise liberty for he
won in decisive style after making all the
running.
The hurdle race left the bookmakers with
practically c.ean sheets. The winner was
as good as 30 to l. Free Advice, the
faVorlte, had no speed and in addition
fenced poorly.
Admetus and Sir Fltzhugh We're equal ia
Vorites for the two-mile race but when il
came to the finish Admetus had things all
his own way.
Skillman made q runaway of the handi-
cap. He rushed to the front soon after the
start. and the pace he set tiptoed the 9TH
ers. He won by two lengths from Disso-
lutte, who was four in front Of Hoods Bri-
gade.
Meggs won first money In the fifth race.
thanks to splendid finish, from Dale Bert
Davis. Cochran up, was much the better of
the two. He was in front from a Jump be-
yond the finish. Dan Rice pulled UP very
lame '
Goodale had things all his own way in the
closing event and won by five lengths.
