CLOSED SEASON FOR oUA1Ls.
Protection Needed and New Law
Nav Be Passed Next Session.

There is a strong feeling in all
parts OF the state favorable to legis-
lation that will close the season for
all time on quail" said Deputy
Game Warden Harbaugh, when dis
cussing the scarcity OF the birds re-
ported by hunters.
Unless some such action is taken
it will not be many years before the
quail is exterminated. 1t was be-
lieved the birds would be able to
protect themselves in the brusH and
canyons, but the persistent hunter
with the trained dogs is successful
even in the most difficult hunting
grounds.
1T would not be surprising ii
some new legislation on quail would
be up at the next session of the leg
islature, and it is needless to say that
people generally will support any
measure looking toward the protec-
ton of game"

I TO INSPECT PROPOSED WORK
AND SUGGEST CHANGES.
ANOTHER PETITION FILED
Second Improvement District May Be
Created Joining No. /, Extending

A Ribbon Bargain
of Great Merit

The city council last night receiv-
ed report from City Engineer Gull
land to the effect that the maps ana
profiles for the improvement of the
Normal hill district would be COM
pleted and ready for the councils in
spection at the meeting next Monday
The data already in the Office of
the city engineer shows 1000 yards
of earth to be required to make the
fills in the proposed district and the
cuts to be made will not furnish suf-
ficient earth with which to make the
fills. 1t is also suggested the cost OF
making the proposed improvements
is much higher than was supposed
when the matter was before the peo-
pie last year. In view of this condi-
ton, it is probable the engineer
with members of the council will &c
over the proposed district next week
and ask interested citizens to accom-.
pany them for the purpose of in.
specting the proposed work, anG
with the assistance Of the maps anC
charts ascertain just what changes
will be made. The question Of
whether the citizens then want to 81
ahead with the proposed improve
ment will be submitted.
The first ordinance providing fol
the pavement of the district inaugu
rated in the business section of tn,

The business of the council last
night also showed the engineering
department has completed the plans
and specifications for the paving dis
trict. Under the former plan all
work of this character was perform
ed by outside engineers, as was the
drawing of the plans for the sewer
system. Such was the arrangement
at the beginning of the agitation for
street paving, and the city has a re-
membrance of this work in ledger
entry showing where $500 was paid

There are registered in the United
States over 1900 seagoing steam
yachts, representing approximately
$60000,000. OF these more than 300 fly
the flag of the New York Yacht club.
Others steam under the colors Of the
Corinthian Yacht club of Marblehead
or the Atlantic Yacht club or smaller
clubs. There are more steam yachts
registered in this country than in Eng
land or France or Germany.
Probably not one of the dozen big
steam yachts in the New York Yacht
club fleet cost to build and equip less
than 100000. But the cost of mainte

pie, carrying crew of sixty men, Is
kept in commission for six months out
of the twelve the payroll will run
close to $4,000. TO feed the crew, to
pay for coal and Oil, for docking and
other necessary expenses will call for
an expenditure of from $500 to $780,
GOO or more. Then there is the ex-
pense of entertaining the owner, his
family and his guests on cruise, a
matter of $4,000, bringing the total
cost very near the 100000 mark. New
err in all history was another such
costly and luxurious vehicle. Any one
of a dozen American yachts now skim

owner from $4,000 to $4,000 month.
This means an outlay running from
$500 to $500 a day, or approximately

Thread From Wood Fiber.

Xyloin is the name given by its man
ufacturers, German firm at Plauen,
to a kind of paper thread made from
wood fiber. According to the descrip-
lions given in various technical publ
cations, this new product can be used
In the looms in the same way that cot
ton and linen yarns are used. The
thread is not brittle and has a hard
surface. 1t has great tensile strength
and is capable of being woven into eli
manner of cloth from pocket handker-
chiefs to floor carpets. XylOin neither
shrinks nor stretches in any apprecia-
BILE degree, and moisture has no par
ticular effect upon it. 1t is susceptible
to dyes to a considerably greater ex-
tent than cotton and linen, while the
price is only one-third that of the for
mer and one-tenth that of the latter

The Name Lusitania.

The Cunard company, following its
long established habit Of naming its
ships after the classic subdivisions Of
Europe, lighted upon ''Lusitania" and
''Mauretania." The first is. the ancient
name of the country inhabited by the
Lusitanii, which included the greater
part of modern Portugal and ran over
into the present Spanish provinces Of
Esdremadura and Toledo. The second,
of about the same age, comes from
across the strait of Gibraltar, where
the Mauri lived, the present Morocco

success and creditable standing. Accor-
ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup Of Figs

known value, but one Of many reasons
why it is the best Of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any facilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
It acts pleasantly and naturally and

churches for seven years. From Bal
timore Mr.. Wrightson was transferred
to this city, succeeding Rev. Frank
Isaac about a year ago.
During his pastorate here, Rev. Mr.
Wrightson has established himself
firmly in the affection and respect of
the members Of his church. Tfe is
q pleasant, kindly and dignified gem
tleman, an earnest Christian minister
and an unusually effective and pleas
ing pulpit orator. Mr. Wrightson
sermons areu niformly eloquent and
scholarly, and he always commands
the closest attention of his hearers.
MIR. Wrightson has been very sue
cessful in his work in this city, and
works in thorough harmony with his

as wen as that of many members of

Mr.. Wrightson is a native of Balti-
more. He received his early educa-
ton in the public schools of that city,
and later entered Johns Hopkins uni
versity. He also took the post grad
