1t seems like piece of foolishness to
make the statement that any person is
crazy when he attempts to beat fast
train at railway crossing, but so
many fatalities result from just such
folly that the truth needs pounding in
to the public. 1t is very poor way by
which to exhibit that spirit of bravado
which is so very characteristic of the
American people.

Olives are likely to pass from a high
priced delicacy to common and low
priced food product. The olive crop
of California is large, and the price of
the olives has dropped from $40 per
ton to 500 The lady who serves six
course supper at some feminine func-
ton will have to substitute something
for the olive and wafer which so often
make one of the courses.

The difficulty Of tanning and civiliz-
ing wild things is well illustrated in
the case Of the 1900 Indians upon one
of the western reservations. Small.
pox is decimating their ranks, and
they will neither submit to vaccination
nor quarantine. The state has no con-
troll over them, and the general gov
eminent humors their whims.. The
reservation is surrounded by a thickly
settled community of white farmers,
who fully realize what a nuisance the
red man can become.

We once knew very ignorant and
a very successful man as the world
rates success, He was a farmer. He
could neither read nor write, but in
some way he had developed a sixth
sense, so that In all financial transac-
tons no man could better figure In
terest or profit and loss than he. His
hobby was TO dress just as poor as he
could, work hard 60 barefooted, save
all his money and buy land. He raked
$4,000 together before he quit; pres
ent address unknown.

this to be done ON an eighty acre farm.

The government estimate of the corn

There were 1862, 796 acres of public

THE WAR TAX REDUCTION.
Scope of the Bill That Was Passed

Z There appears to be some doubt in
the public mind respecting the scope

u reduction in the taxes on beer, stock
transactions, tobacco and foreign bills
of exchange, and repeats the taxes on

Californian Enjoys Himself at His

FROM Die San francisco can.

rAoill lhe odu FRANCISCO Call.
Carlo Bisagno OF Stockton, celebrat-
ed the death of his RIVAL, Caesar Caso-
line, by rather unseemly department
at the funeral recently. He went to
the cemetery in a hack drawn by four
white horses, and when the ceremony
had reached the ''ashes to ashes" part
he threw handful of gravel down on
the casket.
Gasoline, having become enamored
OF Mrs Bisagno some time ago, won
her affections from her husband. Mr. :.
Bisagno left her husband and took
charge of Casoline's household. BIZ
sagno was surprised by the decamping
OF his wife to the home Of his rival,
but he did not take the law irto his
own hands. Gasoline suddenly died,
and Bisaqno for time was disconso-
late. 1t was not the ordinary sorrow
which comes to man who has lost
friend, but was due to the fact that his
chance fer revenge seemed gone for
ever.
Suddenly happy thought came. He
would get four white horses ard have
them harnessed to a hack. Then he
would occupy prominent place in the
funeral cOrtege. With mingled feel
ings OF exultation, hate and JOY he pro-
ceeded to carry his plans into execu
ton. With white horses there could
be no indication that he was in mourn
ing, and he was willing his wife should
supply the tears and sorrow On the
other hand, it gave him feeling of
self-satisfaction to parade his delight
at the death of his enemy.
When the funeral procession wendell
its way to the last resting place of
Gasoline Bisagno was conspicuous in it,
When the solemn words ''askes TO
ashes, dust to dust" were pronounced |
and the grave digger scattered some |
earth over the coffin Bisagno cast in |
some small rocks. After the obsequies |
he held levee with his friends in cel-
g bratiOn of the event.

MAIL IN
A FLOOD
Postoffice Busy
With Holiday
Gifts.
OUTGOING SHIPS
HAVE BIG CARGOES
Shipments Will Greatly Exceed
Those Of Last Year-DeaIers
See the Improvement.

The coming of Christmas is being
felt in many spots now, and not the
least is it apparent at the postoffice.
Never before has there been such a
flood of Christmas mail. Already what
felt in the outgoing shipments in the
Peru and the Alameda. The two ships
took away seventy and fifty-two sacks,
respectively, and from the receipts at
the local office, it is expected that the
Sonoma and Coptic will carry between
them 200 sacks of mail. So great is the
rush that unless mail is in early the
registry division may not be able to
handle it. The rush is on for these
ships, as they are the very last by
which mail may be sent, even to the
Coast. The next regular mail is by
the Aorangi, on the 18th, and that fol-
lowing to San Francisco by the Ameri-
ca Maru. December goth.
The extent of this mail is indicated
by comparison with the mail of last
year There were at that time four
ships whose mail came in the holiday
class. December 7th the Coptic took
"a bags; a week later the Zealandia had
go, and the next day, December 18th,
the America Maru had 80 bags. The
Alameda, the last of the ships whose
mail would reach San Francisco before
the holiday, carried only Is bags. This
shows a total of 217, while the mail of
this season is expected to exceed those
figures by 100 bags. This is not the
only indicative feature, as the register
ed mail will be nearly twice as heavy
this year, and the postal money order
business viii be even greater in pro-
showed a new record in money orders,
when over $4,000 was taken in and
more than 200 orders issued. In addi-
ton to the growth of domestic orders,
the figures show that there is now be-
ing recorded an increase of nearly 200
per cent in the foreign money order
department.
Nor does the postoffice get all that
is coming. for the express companies
find that they are being used to great
extent in the sending of gifts to the
Mainland. to an extent, in fact, which
exceeds that reported in any previous
year.
While this is the condition in the
outgoing mails, the shops which deal
in articles which ordinarily would be
sought for package shipment, report
that there is even a larger trade in
gifts than they had during the same
period last year. This is shown in the
distinctively Hawaiian things offered
for sale, the new calendars and the
photographs, as well in the smaller line
of curios.
The same report as to the opening
up of trade is given by most of the
dealers, although some insist that they
have not felt the impetus yet. Leading
dealers in all lines. stationers, jewelers.,
dry goods houses and household goods
dealers, say they have found an in
creased demand with the approach of
the season for giving, and that the buy
ing, while taking on more practical
form. in that the people seem to be
giving useful rather than simply pretty
gifts, is as free and generous as of |

Prices.

Washington, May GOV. L. King, OF
the firm of Jones & Laughlin, iron
and steel manufacturers of Pittsburg.
testifying before the industrial COM
mission, said he had no apprehen-
sions of evil effects from the steel
combination. Possibly some independ-
emit operators might be injured, but
it was his opinion, he said, that in
the main the effect of the combina-
ton would be to steady prices. One
difficulty which Independent operators
would have to encounter would be to
secure ores, but Mr.. King expressed
confidence that there would be new
ore discoveries to meet future de-
mands. He thought, however, that
iron and steel manufacturers would
need capital of $2o.00O,O 900 to $780,
