Ronaauait and Grant


President Roosevelt" said an old

the tastes and traits Of Gen. Grant. OF
course ne is more loquacious, and do
not doubt that he will make better
administrative officer, but, like Gen.
Grant he doesn't wish to have a sort
Of halo thrown around him because he
Is the President Of the United States.
He walks to church and he permits his
children to romp. Gen. Grants chill
dren were not 30 young as the Roose-
Velt heirs, but just the same they
ruled the unofficial end OF the White
House. Gen. Grant walked nearly ey-
eTywhere he went. and stranger who
lad never seen his portrait would
probably have taken him, on one Of
bis trips from the White House to the
capitol, for countryman seeing the
sights. He was the greatest window
gazer / ever knew. Anything novel
would attract him. I can see him now,
IN my mind, with the inevitable cigar
between his teeth, standing In front
of some store on Pennsylvania avenue
looking at baubles designed to attract
women and children. And so demo-
cratic was President Grant in his
habits that the crowd passed him BY"

RICE MILL TO BE ERECTED.

Diamond. There is talk among

local capitalists Of erecting q new
rice mill at some central point on the
lower coast, which is at present with
out single mill, and only a few
years ago had five. The new mill will
be IN readiness for next seasons crop
and will be modern in every respect,
and has been promised almost enough
rice for next seasons run. The men
at the head of the enterprise are such
as to insure @ satisfactory teHmina.
tlon OF the proposition.
Orange growers are busy planting
many thousands Of young orange
trees Of different varieties in their
well-prepared groves. The weather
is very favorable for planting, and
the soil wet enough to insure their
growth. A box Of select oranges
grown here, beautifully wrapped and
packed by q successful grower, has
been sent to the Charleston Exposi.
ton, and the prospects are brilliant
for its taking the first prize, as was
accorded the lower coast oranges at
the Worlds Fair in New Orleans,

ATTEMPT TO BURN WAREHOUSE


Jennings.-A we'll laid plan to burr
the warehouse along the Southern
Pacific tracks was discovered Frida,
afternoon, and one which, had il
been carried into effect, would have
destroyed thousands of sacks of rice
and spread over an area no one
knows how far, and doing an untold
amount Of damage.
Two of the employees at the Jen-
nings mill discovered a sack filed
with straw under the warehouse that
Is owned by U. s. Phillips. The sack
was filed with old paper and straw
and tucked in between the stills and
the floor, the position being an ad-
mlrable one for the purpose. The
floor is about five feet from the
ground and the space beneath would
furnish sufficient draft to fan a small
blaze into a flame. Under the ware.
house No. 3, under lease Of Albert
Anderson, second sack was found.
In this instance the sack was COM
pletely filled and stood leaning
against one of the supporters of the
floor. The sack was placed under the
center Of the bnilding and should the
tire have started, it would be utterly
impossible to save any portion of the
contents of the building.
News Of the discovery was quietly
made known to few, who immedi-
ately took precautions to catch the
hrebug should he put in an appear
anoe. Several men, armed with shot.
guns and with orders that if any one
made an attempt to start q blaze to
Snoot first and make inquiries after
ward, were stationed about the ware.

they came to the city and made their
report. No one had put in an appear.

TWentys0dd Lives Lost Off

Iron Bark Crashed Into the
Steamer and Then Slipped
Away in Darkness.

San Francisco, Cal.-The collision
at sea early Thursday morning be-
tween the steamship Walla Walla and
an unknown sailing vessel resulted il
the sinking of the steamer and the
probable loss of twenty lives. The

slid into the darkness and was seen
no more.
All the passengers and crew Of the
Walla Walla except the few on watch
were asleep but were aroused by the
crash. The Storage quarters were
In the bow and it is believed that
some of the Storage passengers and
crew were crushed to death. A big
hole was made in the steamers bow
and she sank In thirty-five minutes.
The officers and crew maintained
strict discipline and boats and RATS
were lowered. All who were not.
killed in the collision got off except
Captain Hall who went down with
che ship. He was picked up later by
one of the boats uninjured with the
exception OF few bruises.
