RUNS GANTLET OF INDIANS
DAY AFTER DAY
Mrs. corker Now Living Here,
Reached Los Angeles After Brsv-
ing Dangers on Deserts
and Plains

I'VE saw dead men with their face
turned toward the sun, poisoned ar
rows sticking in their breasts; and, al
the soldiers dug shallow graves fo
the men, coyotes skulked in the sag,
brush and we could see Indians stand
ing on a ridge some miles away"
This and many other such thlngi
were seen by Mrs. Aurelia ]. Corker
one of the pioneers of Los Angeles
and who came across the desert II
the early sixties with her husband and
DIR. James Reeves and M. Il. Condit
now of Los Angeles.
Mrs. Corker is now living with hel
daughter, Mrs. Plummer Durand, al
353 South Flower street, and in speak
ing of her trip across the plains said.
I'VE left Sulphur Bluff, Texas, the
first day of March, 1860, and after
travelling for six monthe we reached
the Pacific coast at San Diego.
"The details of that long ride across
the desert are as vivid in my mind to-
day as they were a month after the
trip.
Via Schooner Route
"I remember the morning we left
Sulphur Bluff, the long train of prairie
schooners and the oxen. The day we
started we were buoyant; everything
we had been told of the Ell Dorado
in California was in our minds; we
seemed to see the beauty and the
wealth before we had even started.
L remember so we'll when my uncle ra-
turned from Los Angeles in 1862 when
he told of the opportunities that
awaited homeseekers there.
1T took some time to persuade my
husband, but we finally started, ac-
companied by DR.. Reeves and NJ. B,
Condit. From Sulphur Bluff we went
to Decatur, Wise county, Texas, and
there were tod that trip across the
plains with only three wagons would
not be safe on account of the hos
tility of the Indians, so we waited
there until large train of wagons
gathered which were bound for Cali
fornia.
"There were thirty-five in the train,
which made 1t practically safe for us

From Decatur we, went to Fort Grif-

Woman Drives Animals
During our stay here three of our
mules strayed away and my husband
left to look for them. He did not re-
turn by the time we started, so il
was necessary for me to hitch the
animals and drive them myself This
/ did not mind, for I had been used
to handling four animals, but my little
one-year-old child, whom 1 held in
my arms, made it difficult for me to
drive well.
~''I remember when we crossed the
Brazos river, one of the collar straps
broke when we were not half across
the stream. The lead animals became
unmanageable and as 1 was in the
rear no one seemed to notice my
dilemma.
II was nearly ready to scream for
help when soldier saw me and swan
out from the opposite bank and fixed
the strap so that I managed to cross
safely.
For one hundred miles l drove the
team, tending them at night and hitch
ing them In the morning. 1t was little
hard, but in those days women did not
mind little things like they do today;
we were hardy and used to the hard
ships whatever they might be.

Levera was to have been executed in

Thereupon the king issued pardon,

This inference would be incorrect. The assistant professors and instructors in the Harvard faculty are in regard to age and experience just such men as receive forthwith the 'title of professor in the smaller col leges, and they are paid higher salariss than full professors in many American colleges, There is no foundation in fact for the notion that students in small colleges come under the influence of more experienced and learned teach CTS than do students in large colleges y

NEW YEARS IN PARIS.

The old year ends with this evening, and all Paris Is preparing busily to welcome the new. My concierge is brushing a black velvet skullcap which he has worn for the last twenty New Years days, and never worn on any other occasion, and he is burnishing the smile with which he means to well come little "etrennes. At my barber a plate has been mounted upon a red velvet pedestal, covered with glass and decorated with a ten-franc piece, a five franc piece and several pieces of small CT silver, to serve, no doubt, as bait for New Years gifts, from customers, and everybody, from the waiter, whim I have been tippingf out of all propor- ton all the year to the washerwoman, who has Gin every sense of the world) managed my inen, will wish me "Bonne annee" tomorrow, and expect a response in hard cash.
 But there are other peculiarities of New Years day in Paris besides the tips. It is, for instance, good to be a fireman on duty at one of the Paris theatres on New Years eve, for it is a deep founded superstition on the heart of every Paris actress that she will have no luck in the new year unless she welcome 1t by kissing the theatre fireman in the last moments of the old one. can remember seeing the fortu- nate man who was on duty at the Va rietes a few years since hustled and hustled from one pretty womans arms into those of another until as he quaintly remarked, ''the kissing had all most ceased to be good" and he didn't know whether the last five la dies were dark or fair"
 This year the play at the Varieties is high comedy, and there will be fewer applicants for the f1reman's blushing cheek, but with Madame Jeanne Gran fer, Madame Eve Lavalliere and the rest of them the firemans lot is quite @ happy one.
 You must not, all Parisiennes will tell you, allow person of pour own sex to be the first to kiss you upon New Years morning, and you must see to it that the first person whom you see on New Years day gives you a present. This superstition it is which is responsible for the "etrennes" nui- sance, by the way. Also, if you can manage it, you must meet and talk to a soldier above the rank of a private before midday on New Years morning. If you are of the softer sex it means good luck in love affairs, and if you be merely man the meeting means good luck in business matters.

HAPPENED IN BROADWAY.

It is not only fine ladies in furs and fine but beeble old gentlemen in broad cloth that the policemen pilots safely across the street, He makes way there as well for cripples, countrymen and children, in fact for all who need his help and protection.
 So there was seen yesterday tali, calm policeman conveying across Broadway two small children who had been out gathering refuse wood which they were now carrying home for fire wood. One of them, a girl of perhaps twelve, wore a little, old fashioned shawl and had balanced on her head A bundle of wood; as big around as her own body and as hng. The other. a boy of g, carried on lis head a bundle of wood like wise as big as himself.
 The two came up together. but with the girl as leader, to the big policeman standing by the corner. and

he with no delay at all but with quite as much attention as he would have shown to any one, started on with them across the street holding up a warning hand to drivers, where that was need ed as he went Probably there could come to his post nobody to kinder and safer care than he did to these two small children carrying the big bundles of wood
 Bt to some of the passers-by the sight of the policeman escorting the two little wood gatherers over so was at least something out of the usual, and a little knot of people, men, wo- men and children out with their moth CTS shopping, gathered on either side of the street to see the incident through.
 Close by one of these corners, stand ing by the crub in the interesting street, was the handsome and trimly sadded horse of a. mounted policeman, his rider being at that moment dis mounted and standing in the street a few feet away, looking after the traffic there.
 This horse seemed to become inter- ested in a little girl that was standing there with her mother, and very quiet ly he moved forward, close to her. and when the policeman on the cross- ing had finally got the children over and had started back himself, and the people who had been watching him faced around to start on this little girl found the handsome police horse standing there looking at her and with his nose all but touching her coat sleeve.
 She certainly was little startled, but she wasn't scared, and she was pleased, and she stepped back closer to heE mother and looked up at her and smiled, and the mother smiled at the little girl and then at the nur-e, and then the two went on together, still smiling and still quite wrought up over this-for them-qutte unexpected ending of the incident.
 But there are things happening in Broaoway all the time, and even the
