account of the coldness in the east as
reported in The Herald and was struck
with it's significance in comparison
with this climate when had occasion
to pass by the Normal school today at
about 1890 and saw that large number
of girl students sitting out on the lawns
under shade trees with open net-w ork
shirtWaists and no hats or wraps of
any kind whatever. In the east at that
time / suppose the same kind of stu
dents were eating their lunches beside
stoves or over radiators or Kicking
toes and clasping ears in order to get
warm. That's all. FRED DUTRA.

COLONIAL FURNITURE "FApD

Colonial furniture is losing favor with
women who took to collecting it merely
as a fad or for the satisfaction of seeing
their neighbors green-eyed when the
expressman landed some particularly
choice specimen on the front steps.
1t is hard work to find 1t and imita-
tions are too common. The women
say scornfully that Everybody has CO.
lonial mahogany" Theirs happens to
be the real thing, but it takes an ex-
pert to know it offhand. They SYM
pathize with the beauty who is in al
most as awkward fix with her string
of pearls which she doesn't wish to
put aside, just because limitations are
within the reach of all. What to do?
There doesn't seem to be anything ex-
cept to ignore the fact that Mrs. Sour
Grapes is saying that she doesn't
think colonial mahogany is especially
desirable. One of the finest collections
of such furniture in this country is
in the Princeton house Of Mrs. Grover
Cleveland. She bought almost all Of
1t in Washington.-New York Press.

THE KID ERApIcAToR

There are all sorts of fads, fancies
and fittings which add to the comfort
and luxuriousness of automobile tour
ing. They cannot be termed necessities,
for the car would give as good service
without them as far as carrying the
load and speeding are concerned,
In this connection it will be perhaps
surprising to note that some men
pay more for the body and interior
fitting Of their cars than Others do
for entire machines
A well-known Chicago motorist has
spent $500 in putting in extras on $1,000
steam touring car. These included six
lamps for various purposes, a clock, a
barometer. a thermometer, grade in
dicator, an odometer a speedometer, a
huge dragon horn, an electric bell, a
steam whistle and kid eradicator." :"
According to Country Life in Amer
ica," this consisted Of a steam pipe

intruder attempted to steal ride the

ringing OF an electric bell, worked by
his weight on the step. completing an

The Hearst estate consists of valu-
able mining properties in Mexico In
which the late United States Senator
George Hearst became Interested and
finally obtained complete control. also
copper mines in this country and ex-
tensive ranches and fruit lands in

Gated in Washington, has ceased his
connection with the estate. In the
west the present manager is Edward
Clark. At the office of the estate in

DOGS FOR MOTOR CARS

The cult Of pet dogs has led in Paris
to perhaps more crazes and fads than
anywhere else. I am told that for the
moment, however. the attention of fad
dists is diverted from useless, if pretty,
balls of puff to training larger dogs for
motor cars.
The motor car dog is trained to guard
the car when the owner leaves it tenn
porarily by the roadside, but incident
ally it is necessary to have a dog
which takes kindly to high speed and
to the clothing which is necessary to
spectacles for his eyes. According to
Figaro the bouledogue is no good, be-
cause he hates motor cars, while the
fox TERROR is found to be too nervous
So far, the best dogs have proved to
be the Scotch sheep dog, the collie,
and above all, the poodles,, which, as
soon as they see a car, are said to
jump into the seat and submit to the
goatskin and the spectacles with
, every appearance of pleasure.-London

nASTnRN MINTHR WOES

To eastern people who have been long
ing for the promised land of sunshine In
Southern California, nature is sayns
now, "stand not upon the order Of your
going, but go at once" That is what
the climatic news from the east Inn
plies. Not yet the middle of October,
but mldwinter temperature and deer
snow reported over a wide area Of that
section
Il almost causes shiver even to
read. here in Southern California, the
weather reports that have come from
the east during the last two or three
days. October is supposed to be the
period of "the melancholy days, the
saddest Of the year" usually rated as
the most delightful period OF eastern
weather. But note the record: Freezing
temperature almost touched in st.
Louis two degrees below the freezing
point at Chicago and SO on down to
Il degrees at a point in Nebraska.
Also from six inches to a foot Of snow
at points in Indiana, heavy snow at
Cleveland and other lake ports, and
light fall of 1.-The beautiful" in old
Kentucky, and frosts "away down

This early advent Of wintry weather,
reported generally as the most severe
on record at a like period of the year.
is taken as an admonition that long
and exceptionally cold eastern winter
may be expected. The unusual mild
ness Of last winter also supports the
belief that a winter of unusual sever
lty is ahead now. And the effect to be
expected is revealed already in reports,
as from Chicago, telling that "the pre-
mature coming of winter has resulted
in much suffering among the poor,
causing a heavy demand to be made
upon the various charitable organiza-
tions for warmer clothing"
No wonder the railway officials re-
port the prospect of an unprecedented
rush of eastern people for Southern
California in the coming weeks Here
be no such thing as a snowstorm, no
freezing temperature, not day of real
climatic discomfort from the beginning
to the end of the winter season. All
the snow visible here will be on the

sample flakes waited down to make us

tain the terms and conditions upon
which such a corps can be established

Important feature of every large city in
the country. In some instances the
expense of establishment and main
tenance is borne wholly by the Under

division of the expense between the
association and the municipality. San

many years. One for Los Angeles is

the doorkeeper Informed him that the

resentatives.
"It is, hey?" said the visitor. well,
