are London chemists who nowadays make
a considerable sweep, in order to give room
in the summer for the American soda foun-
tain. A remarkable contriVance this is
in its way, for it can be made to yield up
ward of thirty varieties of summer bever-
ages, many of them-the phosphates in
particular-real thirst quencherS. You can
have new-laid egg in phosphate drink,
which viii serve either as corpse re-
yiVer' or as a capital substitute for light
luncheon. The concoction is. of course. a
variant of the time -honored egg and milk,
though ice cold
There are plain fruit drinks galore at ID,
with the syrup guaranteed to be madc
direct from fruit. Fruit favored phosphates
cost 3D. and ice cream sodas are to be had
for another penny. If il is desired to find
a substitute for whisky and soda, little
calisaya, kola or coca supplies the essential
tonic to the beverage and sends the con-
sumner on his way rejoicing Two or three
years ago chemists would have considered
a saline draught or a lemon squash as rep
resenting reasonable attainment their
part. Now the soda fountain makes them
practically masters of the situation, for 1t
brings them customers from here, there
and everywhere, and more than justifies

space which the machine requires. 1t be-
gins, indeed, to look as If public houses
and temperance restaurants alike will soon
have to take steps to get on level with
the American bar chemist in this particu-
lar department of catering, for between
them they are certainly working a mild
revolution in a direction where it was not

PAYS HIS OWN BILLS.
King Victor Emmanuel Will Not Over
tax His State.

From the Pail Mall Gazette.
The fun is over. and now come the bills!
Who shall pay them? There Is no doubt
that certain class of King Victor EN-
manuel's subjects are terrible grumbiers.
Nothing ever goes right with them: the
kings civil list is too large. the Russian
and German Journeys are a useless ex-
pense. the people cannot afford a monarch
who runs about like William III. etc How
ever. all these fault-finders are put TO rout
by the simple fact that the king proposes
to pay for his journey himself

announced to them, demonstrated, as ener-

character and quiet determination to nave

rather tactlessly said that the state could
not allow their sovereign to pay for his
official visits. he gazed at for a moment In
silence. and then exclaimed: Am not the
head of the state?" In the end remon-
STRANGE was stopped By that tone Of final
| tty which he knows how to command. In
the words: 'Basta! I shall pay everything
out of my private purse. and I make a

may accrue from my yisits!'
In their innermost hearts the cabinet

WHERE THUGS WERE HANGED.
San Francisco Loses Another Land
mark of Early Days.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
What IS possibly the most interesting his
toric building in San Francisco. the old
two-story structure on Sacramento street
between Davis and Front streets, that
served as headquarters for the vigilance
committee of 1856 is being partly torn
down. will be rebuilt and it's identity SO
lost in the new structure that its historic
interest will be forever lost
The entire front has been torn out and
the worn granite pillars and rusted iron
shutters of doors and windows will give
place to stock brick and plate glass front.
The entire appearance will be changed.
In fact the side walls and some of the
ioists, still sound, will be all that remains
of the building that was the scene of the
history-making meetings of the vigilantes.
The destruction Of the old building at
this time is the more lamentable. as the
recently organized Cailfornia Landmarks
League is beginning its work with vigor
that promises success in its efforts to Sc
cure the preservation of the states historic
landmarks. At the very inception of this
movement its organizers are met with the
discouraging fact Of the unexpected de-
struction Of a landmark possessing more
of general interest than almost any other

UNIQUE SIGNS.

FARMERS INSTITUTE IN GRENADA.

At the court house on Friday, Sep.
TENDER 9Th, will be held a Farmers
Institute. A number of experienced
men from the Mississippi Agricultural
and Mechanical College at Starkville
will conduct it, and those who attend
may expect to learn some practical,
useful knowledge. The state pays the
expenses of these men and consequent
ly there is no expense to the farmers
or citizens. Everything is absolutely
free, and there can be no excuse for
not attending and hearing these
authorities on farming discuss mod
ern, up-to-date methods. The inten-
ton Of the state in having these men
go to the various towns and hold in
stitutes is to improve the condition Of
things for the farmers, and the latter
owe 1t to themselves as we'll as the
state to lend their presence, especial
ly when there is SO much to be
learned. Not only are the farmers of
this, but those of the surrounding
counties are also urged to attend.
The program will treat Of the best
grasses, forage plants, fine stock
breeding, truck farming, fertilizing
lands and other topics Of Importance
to the farmers. Remember that an
expert will discuss each topic on the
program. Come and bring your
neighbor.

facilities OF the College a great deal
and Is one reason for the increased in
terest. The faculty is pronounced to
be a superior n and will compare
favorably with that of any female
school in the state. The local patron
age of the institution should be large,

manner show their confidence in its
excellence. 1t is to be hoped that
