MENELIK A REAL MONARCH.
Rulers Chief Interest Lies
in Military Affairs.

Menelik Of Abyssinia is a man of
dark complexion, grizzled whiskers
and beard, a pleasant smile and a
very determined jaw. The general
expression is amiable and intelligent
and confirms the general opinion that
he is the most liberal-minded and pro-
gressive man in his dominion.
He is evidently not given up to
effeminate luxury, and the nearest
way to his heart is said to be through
the lstest invention in military weap.
ons. he has thoroughly subjugated
the entire country and turned ii from
q mass of petty tribes and chieftains
to a united and powerful country in
which he holds undisputed sway.
The name of Menelik commands re.
spect to the uttermost end of his wide
dominions, and not a leaf falls with,
out his consent. His great aim has
been to get his country well armed
and ammunitioned and of war sup.
plies of all sorts he is said to have q
goodly supply stored in the interior.

Ir1puIslve TO the End.

Private" John Allen tells of an
amusing conversation between two
old colored women that he overheard
on a Washington street car.
Said the first old woman Has O

"No-o!" responded the other ole
colored woman, rolling her eyes til
little save the whites thereof we're Wis
ible. "Yo' don't mean to tell me dat
young mans dead! How'd e die
honey?"
He died suddenly-dey say it was
heart failure; anyhow, he died sud

"Sho', you don't tell mel" continued
the other old colored woman. Then
after a pause, she added:

Reducing the Estimate.

A young American who was visit
ing in an English country house is de-
scribed by a daily paper as a good sort
of fellow, but beset by the habit of eX-
aggeration. His host, who was fond
of him. and did not like to see the boy
making a fool of himself. gave him a
little warning about keeping his tales
and his boasts within reasonable
bounds.
"Well," said the boy, 81 don't want
to offend any of your preiudices. But
when | begin to bluff, my tongue gets
away from me, and l say more than l
mean. I'd be obliged to you if you'd
give me a friendly nudge or kick or
something when you think I'm spread
ing it on too thick"
The host promised to do so. That
night at dinner the conversation turn

that of the host. The American

Seattle Gold Receipts.

Seattle, July 4.-The report of the
local assay Office for the year ending
June 80, shows an increase in gold re-
ceipts of more than $4,000, 900 over
the year previous. There has been a
general increase of output in every
district of the gold regions, and some
districts have shown marked gains
The exact figures showing the increase
for each district, will be in shape for
publication in few days. The total
amount of gold received at the local
assay Office for the fiscal year was SIT,
323,45l. The total amount for the
year 1908 was 1928, 1874. Compar-
ison of these figures shows the actual
increase of 1904 to be $6,O95, 256, or

Too Many Noxious Weeds i'm Cali
fornia Car.
Seattle, July T.-Horticultural In
spector Brown yesterday seized con-
signment of potatoes shipped from
Sacramento which he found to contain
wild morning glory and other noxious
weed seeds, present as the result of the
mouths of the sacks having been packed
with viue toppings and other weeds.
The consignors, rather than have the
shipment confiscated, argeed to defray
the expense of having the packing de-
stroyed, and after doing this Inspector
Brown passed the potatoes with the
warning that in future all such ship
ments will be seized.
1.-THE fact is that shippers of Califot-
MIA potatoes and other vegetables are
in the habit of filling their sacks full
and then topping them off with
weeds" said Inspector Brown. In
this way noxious seeds, such as the
wild morning glory, are brought into
this state. When the morning glory
gets hold in garden or field of any
kind it is fight between the cultivated
product and the weed, with the
chances in favor of the latter More
than two years ago the county commits
sioners authorized me to stop the ship
ment of these weeds, and the practice
has ceased to great extent. In this
shipment, however, found both morn
ing glory and other noxious weed seeds
Some shippers persist in using this
packing and it is my purpose to ex'
clude all such consignments in the fu
ture.
Except for a few peach moths the
fruit received here has been exception.
