Nature

One Of the most remarkable pieces Of
nature sculpture In California Is the
George Washington rock, about thirty
five miles northwest Of Los Angeles, In
the Santa susanna mountains, says the
Sunset Magazine. A chiseled monu-
ment could hardly bear truer likeness
to George Washington than this chance
picture In the ragged contour Of a huge
bowlder. Viewed from one point, and
only one, It stands out sharp and dis
tinct against the sky. From all other
points the rock is a shapeless mass.
The image measures full twenty-five
feet from chin to brow and Is close to
the top OF the hill. In the vicinity have
been found Indian r~elics-oyens. stones
containing Indian writings. arrow
heads. mortars-and many traces Of q
settlement of ab0rigines.

to Kill the measure by delay: but the

that he is endeavoring to talk the

On the 18th day of February. 1908,
we visited the Deaf and oamb insti-
futon in Guthrie, the same being und-
er the direction and management Of
II. c. Beamer, superintendent The
'ommittee timed the visit so as to be
present at the institution at the noon
hour and the visit was made without
previous notice to the superintendent
We found in the instituticp seven.y-
three pupils, thirty-six of whom were
boys and thirty-seven girls. ranging
from the age Of about ten years to
about eighteen years.
We examined the building. school
room, sleeping apartment, dining
rooms. bath rooms kitchen. and also
gave particular attention to the guam
tity and quality of food being served.
We found all the premises and apart
ments and furniture therein in a con
dition OF scrupulous cleanliness. The
food served was in sufficient quanti-
ties, well cooked and wholesome and
the pupils seemed to eat with relish.
There are two pupils from the In
dian territory whose expenses are
paid by private contract, the remain
ing are cared for at territorial ex-
pense.
The number of teachers is four, two
of whom are mutes and all Of whom
are women.
The bills of fare show change OF
food each day of the week, and they
are repeated weekly We submit the
following example:
Tuesday, breakfast: Coffee, hom-
my, beef stew, gravy, bread. crack
ers. Dinner: Roast pork, slaw, po-
tatoes, gravy, bread, water. Supper;
Bread butter, jelly. bologna, or eggs.
Sunday, breakfast: Biscuit. butter,
syrup. fried eggs. coffee. Dinner
Chicken, gravy. dressing, slaw, fire

The superintendent reports thai
there has been no serious sickness
during the past year, a few chills but
no typhoid.
The institution and premises are
owned by the superintendent
The committee made inquiry as to
the books and manner of instruction
and general conduct of the school and.
so far as the members of the commit
tee were able to Judge of these mat
ters, everything in this connection was
satisfactory It is the opinion Of the
committee that the children are be-
ing well treated, well fed, well taught

We would recommend that such ac-

recommendation the superintedent be

The lady who has opened a fashion
able cigarette parlor in New York
ought TO communicate with Queen
Alexandra of England. Her Britannia
Majesty has introduced a new fashion
in smoking apparatus for ladies. Her
outfit consists of gold-mounted

mouthpiece which may be discarded
after use.
Of course the latter cheap device
would not go on Fifth avenue. 1t is
suited only to the royal palaces of
Europe, where narrow incomes and
inquisitive parliaments have forced
economies. Our real ladies would buy
their gold-mounted amber tubes by the
dozen and throw them away when
used.

SECRETARY MOODY AS A WAITER

A good story is told on Secretary
Moody while he was visiting San
Juan, in Porto Rico, writes a Wash
ington correspondent. While the Dol
phin was in the harbor of San Juan
she was visited daily by the natives.
one OF them, feeling thirsty, turned
to man in white and wearing a sort
OF naval cap, and said: 'I'll have a
drink OF water The man hurried
away without word and soon re-
turned with the water, which the
native drank. The man in white then
took the glass back to the cabin.
While he was gone an American. who
had seen the whole procedure. said to
the native: "You ought to have timed
that fellow" The native fumbled in
his pocket for coin. but mildly pro
tested: why should -" and the
American said: Because that was Mr..
Moody, the secretary of the navy" It
was true, and when the secretary
emerged from the cabin the natives
profuse apologies were made as only
one OF the Latin race can make them.
while the secretary, laughing. tried TO
put the Porto Rican at his ease.
