The stores are decked out with Christmas goods, and the city is filled with buyers from all parts of the country. Captain Conner of the St. James Hotel, told me that for over a week they have not had a spare room in the house, and at other hotels the experience is the same. Even the down town hotels which are largely dependent upon commercial men are filled with families. Not for many years have those people spent so much money as this year. In the matter of toys there are no end of attractive novelties. The tendency seems to be toward scientific playthings, and it is wonderful what ingenious devices have been invented, to be operated by means of steam or electricity, and at what fabulously low prices they are to be had. Inspector Byrnes, the Chief of our Detective Force, is rapidly earning for himself the name of the American Vidocq, and deservedly. The manner in which he caught the gang of forgers headed by that clever criminal forger Brockaway, and thereby prevented the consummation of a swindle which would probably have enriched the sharpers by half a million of dollars, was a marvel of care, skill and astuteness. The whole plant was captured and the web of evidence was woven so carefully and thoroughly around them that it will be a wonder if any of them escape short of life sentences. As he has HINDOO WIDOW IMMOLATION. Horrors Attending a Panatical Religion. As polygamy is allowed among the Hindos, it frequently happens that more than one widow immolates herself on the dead body of her husband. One of the most horrible scenes ever enacted in the East was the burning of forty-seven widows at once, the wives of Prince Marata in 1710. He died above the age of eighty. A deep circular pit was dug in a field without the town; in the middle of it was erected a pile of wood, on the left of which, on a couch richly ornamented, lay the body of the deceased Prince in his finest robes. After numberless rites were performed by the Brahmins, the pile was set on fire and immediately the unhappy women appeared, sparkling with jewels and adorned with flowers. These victims walked several times around the burning pyre, the heat of which was felt quite a distance. The principal widow, then holding the dagger of her late husband, thus addressed herself to the Prince, his successor: "Here is the dagger the King made use of to triumph over his enemies; beware never to employ it to other purposes; never imbue it with the blood of your subjects; govern them as a father, as he has done, and you shall live long and happy as he did.

Mar17 Inspector Byrnes, the Chief of our Detective Force, is rapidly earning for himself the name of the American Videocq, and deservedly. The manner in which he caught the gang of forgers headed by that clever criminal forger Brockaway, and thereby prevented the consummation of a swindle which would probably have enriched the sharpers by half a million of dollars, was a marvel of care, skill and astuteness. The whole plant was captured and the web of evidence was woven so carefully and thoroughly around them that it will be a wonder if any of them escape short of life sentences. As he has been so frequently named in the dispatches, let me describe him to you. He is a man but little short of six feet, a well developed frame, a pleasant, strong characteristic face, a ruddy complexion and a remarkably clear, quick grayish blue eye. His movements are languid and his conversation is also slow. His manner is winning in the extreme; he makes friends wherever he goes; even criminals who fail victims to his skill are fond of him, and he possesses the knack of extracting statements from them which are very valuable in the interest of justice. He rarely drinks anything except a glass of claret at dinner, but he is an inveterate smoker. One can scarcely meet him without a lighted cigar in his mouth, and it is said of him that on retiring he puts a cigar in his mouth and a match at his bedside, so as not to lose any time on awakening. He is very fond of a game of poker with a few intimate friends, but he generally loses. He is also a great admirer of racing, and during the season the turf affords him his sole recreation. His judgment of horses is excellent. For trotters, or the driving of fast horses he has no fancy. He is worth probably $500,000. Most of it was made in Wall street, thanks to the points given him by Vanderbilt and Gould, both of whom have taken a fancy to him. Matthew Arnold finds himself out in the cold so far as society goes. Lake at English men and women of any note who came to this country, he expected that he would be received with open arms and made much of by everybody. Hence he neglected to bring letters of introduction. Now the best class of literary, artistic and general society in this city has been done to death by just such people, who returned with snobs and cuts the generous hospitality extended them here. Mr. Arnold has now to pay the penalty for the conscious or unconscious arrogance of himself and his fellow patriots. Then he fell into the hands of Mr. Andrew Carnegie, a pushing, forward kind of person, of great wealth who tor years has been trying to get into society, but failed. Carnegie is a Scotchman who made a fortune in the iron business in Pennsylvania. Though a resident of this country for years, he has not become a citizen and still maintains allegiance to the British Crown. He spent large sums of money for paintings and other works of art, but despite this fact he failed to secure a foothold in artistic society. About a year ago he made a coaching tour through a part women appeared, sparkling with jewels and adorned with flowers. These victims walked several times around the burning pyre, the heat of which was felt quite a distance. The principal widow, then holding the dagger of her late husband, thus addressed herself to the Prince, his successor: "Here is the dagger the King made use of to triumph over his enemies; beware never to employ it to other purposes; never imbue it with the blood of your subjects; govern them as a father, as he has done, and you shall live long and happy as he did. Since he is no more, nothing can keep me longer in the world; all that remains for me is to follow him." With these words she resigned the dagger into the Prince's hands, who took it from her without showing the least sign of grief or compassion. The Princess now appeared agitated. One of her domestics, a Christian woman, had frequently talked with her upon religion, and, though she never surrendered her idols, had made some impression upon her mind. Perhaps they now revived. With the most expressive look she cried out: "Alas! what is the end of human happiness? I know that I shall plunge myself headlong into hell." On these words horror was visible on every countenance while, resuming courage, she boldly turned her face to the burning pile, and, calling upon her gods, flung herself into the midst of the flames. The second widow was the sister of the prince of the blood, who was present and assisted at the sacrifice. She advanced to her brother and gave him the jewels wherewith she was adorned. His feelings gave away, he burst into tears and fell on her neck in tender embraces. She, however, remained unmoved, gazing upon the fire and then on the assistant. Then loudly crying: "Chiva! Chiva!" the name of one of her gods, she jumped into the flames as the former had done. The others soon followed, some with bewildered, downcast and sorrowful looks. One of them shrieked above the rest, ran to a Christian soldier whom she beheld among the guards, and hanging about his neck begged him to save her." The new convert, stunned with surprise, pushed the unfortunate woman from him, and shrieking aloud she fell into the fiery trench. The soldier, all shivering with terror, at once retired, and a delirious fever cooled his life the following night. Though many of the unhappy victims at first showed the utmost intrepidity, yet no sooner did they feel the flames than they screamed out in the most dreadful manner, and weltering over each other, strove to gain the brim of the pit, but in vain; the assistants forced them back with their poles and piled new fuel upon them. The next day the Brahms gathered the bones and threw them into the sea. The pit was leveled, a temple erected upon the spot, and the deceased Prince and his wives were reckoned among the deities. The English Government has made every effort to stop these rites, but without much success. THE ATTENTION OF HOUSEKEEPERS AND the public in general is called to the following facts: The value of Baking Powder is determined by the amount of gas it contains and the freedom of the article from any injurious ingredients. The GIANT BAKING POWDER is absolutely pure, and contains about one-quarter more gas than any brand of Baking Powder in use on this Coast. Three cans of GIANT BAKING POWDER are equal to four cans of any other brand. Study economy and use none other. Your grocer will furnish you with a sample can free. Try it. FACTS. SAN FRANCISCO, JULY 13, 1883. BOTHIN MANUFACTURING CO. GESTERMEN: The sample of GIANT BAKING POWDER you handed me, also samples of the following brands of Baking Powders purchased by me in open market, I have tested for total quantity of available gas, with results as follows: GIANT 196 cubic inches per ounce avoirdupois. ROYAL, 139 cubic inches. NEW ENGLAND, 110 cubic inches. PIONEER, 107 cubic inches. GOLDEN GATE, 107 cubic inches. DR. PRICES, 90 cubic inches. Yours, respectfully, THOMAS PRICE, Chemist. SAN FRANCISCO Sept. 24, 1883. H. E. BOTHIN, President Bothin Manufacturing Co. DEAR SIR: After a careful and complete chemical analysis of a can of GIANT BAKING POWDER, purchased by us in open market, we find that it does not contain alum, acid phosphate, terra alba, or any injurious substances, but is a pure, healthful Cream Tartar Baking Powder, and as such can recommend is to consumers.

Then he fell into the hands of Mr. Andrew Carnegie, a pushing, forward kind of person, of great wealth who for years has been trying to get into society, but failed. Carnegie is a Scotchman who made a fortune in the iron business in Pennsylvania. Though a resident of this country for years, he has not become a citizen and still maintains allegiance to the British Crown. He spent large sums of money for paintings and other works of art, but despite this fact he failed to secure a foothold in artistic society. About a year ago he made a coaching tour through a part of England, and, as it is said, with the help of others, wrote a book about it. The critics let him off easy. He now proposes to go back to Scotland where he hopes to win a seat in Parliament. He somehow managed to capture Mr. Arnold, and by this means endeavored to collect a gathering of first-class people at his establishment; but somehow even this failed, and Mr. Arnold has to pay the penalty for his host's unpopularity. There is a remarkable case in Bellevue Hospital at present. Some time ago a man was received suffering from a cancer in the throat. It was successfully removed, but the passage for the conduct of food from the mouth to the stomach was hermetically closed. After a consultation, the surgeons decided that the only way to prevent his death from starvation was to cut an opening into his stomach and feed him to the stomach direct. A hole was accordingly made under his fifth rib, the stomach was opened, and now he is fed in this novel way. One of the surgeons told me that he thought that the man's life could be prolonged for a year. He has no pains, and his mental faculties are strong and active, but he will gradually die from exhaustion, since the food which his stomach is able to digest is of the lightest kind, and scarcely able to contribute to the formation of muscular tissue. More Ostriches. WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.—The Consul of the United States at Cape Town reports to the Department of State the shipment of twenty-four ostriches to New Orleans, destined for San Diego, Cal. These birds are the property of E. J. Johnson. They range from 5 to 9 years of age and were selected with the greatest care from the best flocks in the colony without any regard to their cost. The greatest care has been exercised in their transportation, and as San Diego is about as far north of the equator as Cape Colony is south and as the typographical features of the two sections are much alike, the birds will probably thrive in their new home. Thin women in the West have taken to drinking koumiss, in the hope that it will prove fattening. They do not make it in the Oriental manner, of mare's milk; however; but they put a quart of cow's milk into three pint bottles, dividing the quantity equally. Then they add to each bottle two teaspoonfuls of white sugar and a quarter of a cake of compressed yeast, tie the cork securely, shake thoroughly, and let it ferment. It is fit to drink at the end of a day, and will keep half a week in good condition. It tastes a good deal like buttermilk, but has fizz and sparkle. Those who have confidence in the fat-producing qualities of koumiss say that it should be drank at the rate of a pint a day. The Cincinnati Enquirer mentions the case of a girl who is engaged to be married. The date of the wedding is fixed for Christmas Day, with the odd condition, imposed by the prospective bridegroom, that the bride shall at the altar weigh 125 pounds. She can't have recourse to the methods of jockeys, and bring herself up to the required standard by strapping pieces of metal to her body; nor will the ordinary devices of producing a comely degree of rotundity to the eye of the casual observer answer the purpose. Accordingly, she is now a hard drinker of koumiss. Too Low in the Neck. New York, Nov. 23.—It is stated that before the Roman Catholic authorities of the St. Patrick's Cathedral in this city would consent to the marriage of the daughter of Theodore Moss to Mr. Flynn last Wednesday evening, they requested the bridal party to notify their lady friends not to appear in low-necked dresses. The dress of the ladies at the last wedding at the cathedral so shocked the Cardinal that he almost decided never to have an evening wedding again. GAZETTE. BER 1, 1883.

Watermelon vinegar is a new Maryland industry. The Georgia farmer's newest craze is Jersey cattle—everything is Jersey. Manufacturing establishments of Allentown, Pa., give employment to 2,200 girls. A number of Massachusetts men have invested $100,000 in a sugar farm in Kansas. Efforts are being made to grow jute in Georgia. If successful, it will be planted extensively. Wherever in Mexico the railroads have reached the wages for labor of all kinds have advanced from one hundred to three hundred per cent. At the end of the six day's walking match in San Francisco the score stood: O'Leary, 475; Hart, 500; Harriman, 481; McIntyre, 481. During the year 875,000 barrels of malt liquors were made in Cincinnati, Covington and Newport, and beating the previous record by over 47,000 barrels. Baltimore manufacturers complain that it is impossible to get enough girls for their work, and men cannot be afforded, while negroes would drive away all whites. Cotton planters have been particularly Mormon Proselytizing. New York, Nov. 24. The World's London special of the 23rd says: The anti-Mormon movement is beginning to take definite shape in England. The success which has attended the efforts of Mormon missionaries, has led to a strong feeling of opposition and an organized movement on a large scale has been set on foot to offset the obvious influence of polygamista. Many meetings have been held, particularly in the north of England, and a petition to the Crown, praying for protection against the evils resulting from polygamy, has been freely circulated and liberally indorsed. The committee to-day presented this memorial to Gladstone and sonicited his official influence towards abating the evil complained of. Gladstone received* the deputation with a great deal of courtesy and said that he fully appreciated the importance of mitigating in some way the growing tendency to embrace a belief so foreign to the ordinary English mind. He thought, however, that methods other than those which might be obtained from legislation should be sought. Mormonism prospered more among the poorer classes and it was generally some hope of material benefit which induced people to fall into the arms of the Utah missionaries. An improvement in the condition of the working classes would, in his opinion, do more towards nullifying the influences of Mormon- with jewels and these victims walked to burning pyre, the date a distance.

Chicago, Nov. 22.—In Baltimore, Md., the Provident Woodyard Association has been organized, with a capital of $50,000. Some of the leading merchants planned the enterprise, and next week the yard will be opened. There are 500 cords of wood to start with, and thirty sawyers can be accommodated. When tramps apply at the Police Stations for meals or lodgings they will have to earn them. Some will be given tickets to the woodyard and there put to sawing wood, whether drunk or sober. If their clothes are dirty they will be provided with a temporary change, while their soiled clothing is put in a large boiler, steamed, dried and given to them before work is begun. They will receive fifty cents per cord for sawing the wood, which will be sold to the City Fire Department. A Strange Affair. On last Thursday evening, just before sunset, Otto Anderson, a one-legged woodchopper, went on the roof of his cabin, at the Live Oak mine, to shovel off the remaining snow, and in order to better retain his foothold on the roof, sharpened his wooden leg to quite a fine point. Concluding his labors, he re-entered his house, and his wife and himself soon retired, placing their four-months-old child at the foot of the couch to warm them. Anderson was somewhat restless during the night, and after having risen in the morning the screams of his horrified wife attracted his attention to the fact that the child was impaled upon his wooden leg. The infant was quite dead.—Grass Valley Union, Nov. 24th. For a cough or cold there is no remedy equal to Ammen's Cough Syrup. The Use of Wine. The Christian at Work says: "The ancient Egyptians at their symposiums in the pre-champagne days, drank their light, still wines diluted two-thirds water and one-third wine, and had no forbearance for those who drank all wine. So with the Greeks; so with the Romans; so with the Jews. Christ made wine at Cana. But we have no reason to suppose it was drunk otherwise than diluted with the customary two-thirds water. But it was such wine that its flavor, like that of the ointment Mary used, must have 'filled the house.' In those days there was little drunkenness, but one distilled liquor and no total abstinence societies. Ignorance of these facts, together with the application of the inverse method of reasoning, have led to the conclusion that, as whisky is bad in this country, 'strong wine' was bad in Palestine 1800 years ago, and that therefore Christ would not have made and did not make real wine, but boiled grape juice instead. What precious brains, what reams of paper have been used up to advance this position! But now it is coming to be understood that if Christ made wine and not some other 'juice' he did not encourage drunkenness, he does not approve of the whisky drinking of today, and he did not authorize temperance speakers to say that he did not make wine after all." A Bloodthirsty Congressman. Chicago, Nov. 23.—A meeting of Irishmen was held to-night to commemorate the death of the Irish martyrs, Allen, Larkin and O'Brien, executed at Manchester, England, 16 years ago, for shooting a British officer. Congressman Finerty made the principal speech, in the course of which he said "he would be glad to hear that the dynamites had blown London off the face of the earth, but was sorry to hear that they attempted to do so and made a miserable botch of it. The Irish people would be justified in doing anything to avenge the death of these martyrs."
