heavy laden with the romance OF
centuries-into the harbor of the city
of an hundred hills; into new San
Francisco, risen from the ruins of two
years ago, the Atlantic battleship feet
steamed O Wednesday in review OF a
multitude unnumbered.
1t was the same imposing pageant
of immaculate white ships that sailed
from Hampton Roads nearly five
months ago in the wake of the Presi-
dents flag, but with the splendid ac-
complishments OF record breaking
cruise of more than $4,000 miles and
three weeks OF wonder target practice
behind it.
The white-anchored four-starred
blue flag of the secretary of the navy,
flying from the mainmast of the trim
little gunboat Yorktown, fluttered the
welcome of the nation, while the gov
ernor of California, the mayor of San
Francisco and the people of an hun

of Telegraph hill. The sun. which all
morning long had been obscured by
heavy, gray clouds, broke through just
as the ships We're passing by the gate

upon the pageantry of fighting craft.
At night the city is gay with merry
making and the long program Of enter
tainmcnts planned in honor of the fleet
is well under way. Streets and build

in the history of the new city. many of
the giant skyscrapers that have risen

Lincoln, Neb.-Farm hands of An
telope county have started a movement
to compel farm owners to use nothing
but riding plows, cultivators and reap

thing was wrong, they broke open the
door and saw Wright lying beside the

full imitation morocco case, which ho
claimed was genuine. Then he has
tened to the home of the merchant,
and. using the same argument, induced
the wife to buy another edition OF
the family Bible as an appropriate wed

When they exchanged presents that
evening, there was quite a commotion
in the home, and the husband was be-
side himself with rage, forgetting that
both of those Bibles contained the in
junction: Let not the sun go down
upon thy wrath" Being unable to 20

to go to the station. and bring that
agent to the house without fail. Tho
friend fastened to the depot, caught
the book agent, delivered the message
and insisted upon the agent DELAYING
his departure. The willy fellow, full OF
business. replied:
Il offered him a copy of this Bible
for so and he put it off for the time,

her of the bargain. and she wants it
l cannot remain over. however. for ono
sale, but you can take it to him, and
he will be delighted, and will forever
