San Diego, Sept 25.-With the set
ting of the sun behind Point Iona
last night, the city Of San Diego will
awake to find itself under a new
leader-the king of the carnival. For
three days and two nights it will
swear allegiance only to him.
The carnival king will rule with
scepter twined with roses, symbols Of
sunshine and happiness. He stands
upon platform of pleasure for all.
He is bound by no book of rules, by
no precedent, by no voluminous stat
utes. He will be lenient toward all
the sons of man, and shall enforce
but one law, "Thou shalt be happy"
All must obey the law, else shall
they be hailed before the kangaroo
court and banished into the dungeons,
so that their gloomy countenances
shall spread no care among their
fellows.
Throughout the kingdom his min
listers and servants will, like the Cal
iph Haroun, mingle among the peo-
pie, spreading the precepts of unani-
nous joy and making report on those
who wilfully violate the mandates of
the king. These will be hailed before
him, and should they prove to har-
dened that they experience no change
of spirit while basking in the sunlight
Of his presence, they will be preemp-
torily banished.
AS the metamorphosis of the cater
pillar into the butterfly, SO will be the
change in San Diego. From a dull
world Of business cares, of dollars
and cents, of domestic troubles, and
personal worries it will evolve into
a city with its eyes turned only to-
ward the joy of life. 1t will shake off
the drab coat of business grey and
turn out bedecked in red and yellow,
the colors Of the carnival, which
shall be the colors Of the city for the
remainder OF tne week.
The Carnival Cabrillo,, which COM
bines the celebration of the four hun
dredth anniversary of the discovery
of the Pacific ocean by Basco Nunez
de Balboa, the three hundred and
seventy-frst anniversary of the dis
covery of San Diego bay by Juan
Roderiques Cabrillo and the one hun
dred and forty-fourth anniversary of
the establishment of civilization on
the Pacific coast by Fra Junipero
Sierra, is expected to be the most sue
cessful ever held on the Pacific coast.
At the headquarters of the order
of Panama a committee was busy ar
ranging to meet delegations from the
northern cities, and special represen-
tatives from other states who are
coming to San Diego to partake in the
general good time that begins to-
night.

Living by the Minute.

The Christian Herald: 1t is per-
haps true that some writer's and
teachers have over-emphasized the
gospel of contentment with our lot
Advancement has been made in every
line by people who are discontented
with the present opportunities and
broke through to something higher
But, even allowing this, it is undoubt-
edly true that there is vast amount
Of unholy and wasteful discomfort.
We are apt to think pretty constantly
how much more and how much better
we would do if circumstances were
different. While history presents
many cases of people who broke away
from some humble task to force their
way to something higher, it is fuller
of instances in which a man or wo-
man by doing with patient faithful
ness an insignificant task, has been
called to greater things.
The answer to the problem is the
old rule of living by the minute. 1t
is almost never right to leave a task
unfinished. This day, this hour, this
minute puts a task into our hands.
Because Of the nail the shoe was
lost; because Of the shoe the horse
was lost; because of the horse the
rider was lost; because of the rider
the battle was lost" So it was with
the blacksmith, after all, who lost
the battle. If he had done his work
well, the cause might have triumphed.

DEADLY LIGHT WAVES ARE
NEW TERROR OF WAR

Schenectady, N. Y, Sept. 25.-A
stream of invisible light waves that
will annihilate the largest dread
nought afloat or wither up a bomb
carrying aeroplane has been produced
by Henry Burr Gibson of this city.
The instrument is already in the
hands of the United States govern
ment and is undergoing rigid tests.
In a test made by the inventor be-
fore applying for the patent charge
of dynamite was exploded five miles
distant. The whole apparatus can be
easily carried by man.
Experts freely predict that Gibson's
invention, or discovery, will revolu-
tionize warfare, as it will make at
tack by water or air impossible. With
its aid the defending force could cas-
lily explode every magazine in the
invading fleet, annihilate an aerial
fotilla, and thus render their coast
defenses impregnable.
although l have not made actual
experiments with aeroplanes," said
the inventor today, "the success that
has attended other demonstrations
warrants me to predict that it viii
destroy war aeroplanes as easily as
it does mines"
The machine is extremely simple,
consisting of an ordinary arc light,
two quartz lenses and seven colored
screens. The apparatus is enclosed
in covered box, which is divided
into two sections. The rear compart-
ment contains the arc, and a reflect
ing lens which projects the light
waves on large quartz lens which,
in turn, refracts the waves to a small
Ter quartz lens in its focus. Between
the two lenses are colored screens
which absorb all colors of the spect-
rum with the exception of the ultra
violet rays.
when these ultraviolet rays i'm
pinge on powder" says Gibson, "they
cause molecular action, setting up
friction which in turn produces the
heat necessary to cause the explo-
sion."
For aeroplanes that do not carry
bombs, the inventor proposes send
ing up small balloons carrying dyna-
mite which he would explode near the
planes, causing a vacuum in which
the invading machine would capsize

Two Italians Dead from Shooting.
10Th PRINCIPALS BEING DEAD, NO
TRIAL Is IN PROSPECT.

As the result of an ARRAY among Ital-
isns at Rumford on Sunday, the 9Th inst,
Luigi Reias was shot and died almost
Immediately, and Bahia Mario was shot
and died in the hospital two days later.
Reias was a tenant in the Joe Bill
house in Virginia, the same house
where the Italian Joe Bill shot his wife,
for which he is now serving q life sem
tence in state prison. As appeared from
the testimony of witnesses, all Italians,
a game of cards for money was going on
in the house Sunday afternoon, and one
Of the players refused to play longer
He was urged, and there was little al
tercstion, when Reias came into the
room and told them to get out, as he
didn't want any trouble there on Sun
day. The men went out into the hall,
where witnesses testify that they saw
Mario pull revolver and shoot Reias
twice. Rsias was afterward found at
the foot of the stairs, dead. Mario had
a bullet wound in bis side, from what
source does not yet seem to have been
ascertained positively, and was taken to
a hospital, where he died Tuesday even
ing.
Although Mario was conscious, all at
tempts by the officers to get him to
make any statement were unavailing.
An inquest over the body of Luigi Re-
las was held by Coroner 81. L.. Elliott,
County Attorney Frederick R. Dyer be-
ing in attendance. The verdict of the
jury was that Reias came to his death
from bullets from revolver in the
hands of Bahia Mario.
Two Italians were held as witnesses,
and not being able to furnish the re.
luired bonds, are detained in Jail until
the session of the court.
