the Philippines.

One Of the little details that fall to
the Philippine government is that of
finding husbands for the orphan girls
Of the institution, bearing the name of
the Hospicio de San Jose, and to do
this is no easy matter. Before the
Filipino will consent to 60 to the altar
he has to be shown monetary adyan-
tage-in fact, bride without dowry
wouldn't get . husband in q thousand
years. Uncle Sans agents, after
wondering why there was such a
dearth Of bridegrooms for their pretty
charges Of the Hospicio, finally dis
covered that in order to marry them
on dowries would have to be found.
AS the result matrimonial brokerage
commission has been formed. Through
this. $50 Is offered to any young
Filipino of. good character who viii
take one Of the orphan maids as his
lie mate, but no bargain is closed In.
til after Official cupids have thorough
~ examined into the history Of the
husband-to-be.

First Print.r found.

A French ,semi-scientiRc naeasine
does away with the discussion as TO
who was the first printer. Here is its
story: When Agesilaus observed be-
fore the battle that made his name
that his soldiers doubted success, he
wrote on his hands. inverting the let
ters, the word Victory" in Greek, of
course. When the priest appeared
with the sacrifice, bulls liver, the
great captain laid his hand on the
mesh and kept It there for some time
After he removed II the word "vic-
tory" was printed there, patent to all
eyes, and this Greek was undoubtedly
the hrst printer. The soldiers saw
what they supposed to be "a message
from the gods" and fought like lions.

born that the matter had passed out of his jurisdiction. If any technical defence could have been based upon that point, it was waived by Brown and Havens, who went into court with out counsel and declined to make any contention with District Attorney Law Tor
 The District Attorney was more dis turbed than anyone else about the awful affront to the court, and he urged that the defendants be made examples of" and condignly punished for their fragrant" offense.
 Brown and Ravens explained that they had no intention of approaching the court in an improper manner; that they meant no reflection upon the in- tegrity of the court, and that if they had done wrong they regretted it.
 Judge wellborn showed no personal feeling, but made it plain that he was concerned only that the court should be treated with due respect. He did not appear to share the District At torney's mortified perturbation and de- sire for exemplary severity toward the defendants. The Judge spoke in a kindly way to the defendants and lis tened to their explanations, which were to the effect that they had acted only as transmitters of the resolutions. MT. Ravens, who had not been present when the resolutions were adopted, had with him an affidavit from the writer of the resolutions explaining the matter and accepting all respon- sibility for them, but was not called upon to present it. He gave the name of the author of the document in re- sponse to the District Attorneys ques- tion.
 Judge Wellborn took the matter un- der advisement and made an order allowing Brown and Havens to return to their home. They will be notified to appear when the court is ready to dispose of the case.

AFTER LAND GRAF TIERS
Register Prescott Approves Action of
 Imperial Grand Jury.

Noting the indictment of Fuller and Murphy by the Imperial county Grand Jury on charges of defrauding land locators, the Los Angeles Times says:
 Local officials of the United States Land Office have always kept a sharp watch for swindling agents, and they say they are pleased to know that the State authorities are taking steps to safeguard the interests of innocent desert-land settlers.
 This office has always keenly scrut- inized all such deals" says Register Prescott, "and in case of apparent fraud we take immediate action. I am glad that the State and county authorities are making an investiga tion. It is needed for the protection of the innocent Set.ser. If at any time a settler has good reason to believe he has been defrauded, all he has to do is to come to this office and the machinery of the Federal govern ment will be quickly set in motion"
 Gen. Prescott stated that the com mon method employed by land swim dlers was to take the victim to fine location and show him the soil, water and nearness to markets. A contract would then be signed, whereby the settler agreed to pay the agent cer- tain sum for making the location. The agent would then accompany him to the Land Office and make entry for him on an entirely different tract. In many instances, it is said, the section the victim thinks he is getting is al ready taken. Often he does not find out he has been swindled until he ac. tually goes to live on the land.

BROWN AND RAVENS.
Explain That No Disrespect to Court Was Meant, and Case Is Taken
 Under AdVisement.

J. Stanley Brown and F. G. Ravens, president and secretary of the Fl Cen tro Chamber of Commerce, appeared before Judge WellbOrn in the United States court at Los Angeles last We'd nesday in answer to a citation to show cause why they should not be ad- Judged in contempt TOT transmitting to Judge Wellborn resoutions relat- ing to the effect upon valley industries of the injunction issued in behalf of the Liverpool Salt Company against the California Development Company
 When the resolutions were adopted, it was not known that any proceedings in the case were pending before the court, and as matter of fact it was subsequently decided by Judge We'll

It may seem too bad to spoil harm less sensation, but the frozen fact is that the story of volcanic eruptions and fireworks in the Imperial Valley below the Mexican line is a fake. The so-called mud volcanoes of that region are only boiling mud springs a few feet in diameter. Some steam issues from crevices in the sides of a low hill near Volcano Lake, and mud cones a few feet high have teen thrown up near the lake shore. Neither smoke nor fire issues from the volcanoes"
 Last Monday the Imperial Standard, swallowing the fake whole, said
 The mud volcanoes located sixty miles south of Calexico in Lower Cali fornia, were in a state of eruption yes terday. Last evening the disturbance amounted to pyrotechnic display and attracted the attention of large num- Der of people. Although seventy-five miles away, a bright flame was seen extending to a great height, caused by the combustion of the gases emit ted. During the afternoon large col umn of smoke was seen coming from the volcanoes.
 It is said that the Cocopah Indians living in the locality have become alarmed and are moving their vil- lages.
 Combustion of gas about four miles north of El Centro is frequent phe- nomenon, but the smoke and the light in the sky to the south come from burning jules and brush on the c. M ranch. All the rest of the eruption yarn is pure fiction. A party from Fl Centro went down to Volcano Lake last week and saw extensive brush fires on all sides, but the volcanoes were about as active as tea kettles.
