Near Raleigh in Nottinghamshire, there is a valley said to have been caused by earthquake several hundred years ago, and is now usual on Christmas mornings for men and women to tell their children young friends to go to the valley, stoop down and hear the bells ringing merrily in ruins of the church under the ground. At Kilgrimol near Blackpool, a very mon superstition prevails that the bells be hidden church may be heard by anyone wishing his ear to the ground. In Berksham it was at one time a popular belief that the bells could be heard ringing in the grove on Christmas Eve, and in some parts of England miners have been heard to say that bells could be heard merrily pealing in most distant parts of the mine. There are instances in which children be declared that they have heard the sound ringing bells in little streams and spring just in the same manner as they hear in shell picked upon the seashore the sound of the waves. After Port Royal, in the West Indies, submerged, sailors in those parts would many years tell wonderful stories of anchoring amidst chimneys and steeples of city beneath the sea, and they would do that at times the sound of the church could be plainly heard as they were agitated by the waves. In one of the lakes at Crossmere, Shire, England, a little chapel is said to have been submerged, and the villagers tell constantly that bells may be heard ringing beneath the still waters. Magnitude of the Nugar Interest We now have every advantage for pruning successfully the sugar industry in United States over that of any European country. We have a home market. The consumption of sugar in the United States was, according to the last census, fifty-pounds per capita for our 64,000,000 inhabitants, or a total of 3,520,000,000 pounds, 1,760,000 tons, while the United States manufactured less than 200,000 tons during same period, not counting naple sugar. and Poultry Taken in Exchange MINOR, PROP.

Reynolds of Los Angeles, who distinguished himself as a successful rain prophet in the dry spell of last winter, says that those who are this year fearing a dry season should wait until February 12, and then put on their gum-boots and get out their umbrellas, for it is going to rain. He also predicts a good rain on March 5th. The Santa Fe company has issued a notice that on the 15th instant the $125 rate on oranges will be put into effect again, displacing the "exigenoy" rate of 90 cents. This is in the nature of a surprise, for it had been semi-officially stated the company would keep the rate in effect during the season. The official count of the vote on the election for the issuance of $600,000 in bonds to build roadbeds through San Diego county to a connection with the Southern Pacific is finished and shows that the proposition was defeated by 501 votes. A two-thirds vote was necessary to carry the measure. The back country papers did great work against the bonds. The Los Angeles City Council, which has been laboring for several weeks on a plan to place the ownership of the water-works in the hands of the city, has made public the terms upon which the City Water Company will sell its plant, namely, $2,000,000—a very healthy price. The water right will revert to the city, by the terms of the lease, within a few years; therefore the price named is for improvements and for extra water supplies which the company claims to have developed. The seventeenth annual session of the American Poultry Association will be held in Los Angeles from the 10th to the 18th of the present month. This is the most important meeting of the kind ever held west of the Rocky Mountains, and the local chicken fanciers, and citizens in general, will do everything in their power to make it a success. Poultry men from all parts of the Union will be in attendance. R. Efrich, the landscape gardener of Jackson Park, Chicago, and chief of the committee of horticulture and floral adornment of the World's Fair grounds, has arrived in Los Angeles. He is here to select tropical plants to beautify the World's Fair grounds. All the flowers, shrubs and trees will be labeled as coming from California. From all indications California will have the finest exhibit of any State in the Union. Trees for the orange grove and lemon, fig and other semipropical fruit trees have already been set out. John Whyte of Pomona has begun suit against the Oxnard Beet Sugar Company of China to recover $32,055 50 alleged to be due for brick manufactured for defendants but refused by them. The complaint alleges that because of the refusal of the Oxnard company to accept 78,000 of the bricks, Magnitude of the Nugar Interest We now have every advantage for cutting successfully the sugar industry in United States over that of any European country. We have a home market. Consumption of sugar in the United States was, according to the last census, fifty-pounds per carat for our 64,000,000 inhabitants, or a total of 3,520,000,000 pounds 1,760,000 tons, while the United States malfunctioned less than 200,000 tons during same period, not counting maple sugar, foreign purchases then were, in round bers, 1,560,000 tons, or 3,000,000,000 pounds which, if computed at 5 cents per pound would represent $150,000,000 paid by your sumers in this country for foreign sugar Europe is valued at from $300 to $600 acres, and the only advantage they can enjoy over the United States is cheap labor. It is nearly or quite met by the non-use of tillizers, which is annually required thereto. We have an abundance of labor, especially in our large towns and cities, and tens thousands of acres of cheap land that he made to produce more tons of rubber beaten at less expense for labor, and at the same time our laborers are well paid. All About Fat Kings. The elderly King of Bavaria, of her build, with a dull, surly face, looked stout German farmer. The King of Wemburg made up for the smallness of his main by the polosal bulk of his person. Stay at Vienna was cut short owing to unfortunate incident. So enormous was development that in all dining tables at he had a circular space cut out to enable to sit down to his meals with comfort. seems that no preparation had been made him in the Austrian court dinner tables. One night a great banquet was given which he was invited. In the course of meal some remark was made which he construed as a slight to himself. Wild rage he jumped up with such sudden that the table caught by his protube bulk was overturned, and all the dish plate, glass and decorations were hurried upon the floor with a fearful crash. His jesty fled from the room pursued by shades of laughter, and left Vienna that very nigh. The Hideous in Art. When the famous statue of the Afgil in the clutches of a ferocious goat started the Paris Salon several seasons it was believed that the limit of daistically terrible in statuary had been reached. This bloodcurdling work of art, however fairly surpassed by a small piece of wood carving, executed by some unknown Japanese artist, which is now on exhibition New York. Its subject is a unique A Japanese girl while bathing is seized an octopus, and the battle between them as vividly portrayed in wood as the stile gale of Victor Hugo's fisherman with a lar monster is painted in print. There is little doubt, though, of the outcome of contest which the carver has so vividly resented. The girl dragging herself forward on knees as she cries in vain for aid, is plaster exhausted. The poise of her outstretched arm and the hopeless droop of her head overwhelming fatigue.

There are instances on record of men who have been rescued from drowning and who; in describing their sensations at the awful moment, state that they have heard distinctly the sound of the pealing of bell's, although in each case it is known that the occurrence has taken place far away from any bells whatever. The solution is given by physicians, who attribute the curious effect upon the ear to causes similar to those which produce what is commonly known amongst us as "ringing in the ears." There are many curious legends existing the World's Fair grounds, has arrived in Los Angeles. He is here to select tropical plants to beautify the World's Fair grounds. All the flowers, shrubs and trees will be labeled as coming from California. From all indications California will have the finest exhibit of any State in the Union. Trees for the orange grove and lemon, fig and other semitropical fruit trees have already been set out. John Whyte of Pomona has begun suit against the Oxnard Beet Sugar Company of China to recover $32,055 50 alleged to be due for brick manufactured for defendants but refused by them. The complaint alleges that because of the refusal of the Oxnard company to accept 78,000 of the bricks, according to contract, Whyte's creditors came in and attached the same and sold them at Sheriff's sale; and that defendant purchased them and used them in constructing the Chino sugar factory, for which purpose the bricks had previously been refused. Old Jack Stewart, who has lived in San Diego sixty years, died Tuesday night at his house in Old Town, aged eighty-one years. He was a historic character, as he was one of the shipmates of Richard Henry Dana, whose "Two Years before the Mast" has become a classic. Dana mentions him in his pages, particularly in "Twenty Years After," an account of the author's visit to California in 1852, when he renewed his acquaintance with deceased. Pasadena was treated to a climatic diversion one afternoon last week. At 1:30 o'clock heavy masses of black clouds gathered over Altadena, a suburb of Pasadena, near the Sierra Madre mountains. The clouds were so heavy that they caused darkness. Next came the first thunder storm on record in that region. The thunder and lightning were appalling for about ten or fifteen minutes, when hail began to fall and continued until the ground was white with the stones. Then, without any preliminary sprinkle, the clouds seemed to burst open and an almost solid mass of water fell, turning the streets into rivers and filling all the runs and gulches. It did not rain at Pasadena, but its streets were soon brimful of water. It will then probably startle a good many persons to on the authority of a well-known stain that could the infants of a year ranged in a line in cradles, the cradles would extend around the globe. The writer looks at the matter in a picturesque light. He imagines the being carried past a given point in mothers' arms, one by one, and the position being kept up night and day until last hour in the twelfth month had passed by. A sufficiently liberal rate is still but even in going past at the rate of 2 minute, 1,200 an hour during the entire reviewer at his post would have seen the sixth part of the infantile host. In other words, the babo that had carried when the tramp began would be to walk when but a mere fraction of its rades had reached the reviewer's post when the year's supply of babies was drained to a close there would be a rear guard of infants, but of romping six-year-old girls. How at a Kissing Bee. A lively row is in progress at Burns town about twenty miles from Beverly in New York, growing out of a money-raising scheme introduced at a social held there in the Lutheran church. The church is heavily in debt and ladies advertised a social in the churc JANUARY 11, 1892.

Our raise money to pay the preacher and buy some coal. The men of the congregation had all been seen and informed that the women had a big surprise for them. The men were out in full force and fairly packed the rooms. Across one end of the room was a curtain. When the curtain was suddenly withdrawn there in a row stood six of the prettiest women in the congregation, blushing and smiling, each bearing upon her bosom a placard on which were the words: "You may kiss me for 25 cents." It was fifteen minutes before the device began to work, but when it did the silver quarters fairly showered into the spouts of the young ladies. Old and young eagerly rushed to the front to exchange coins for kisses. The show lasted only a short time when the curtain was again drawn. Then the storm burst. Women were jealous of their husbands and a dozen or more family fights were started at once. Soon it was announced that the women would pose again in a short time. Then the angry women tore down the curtains and blew out the lights. Scrambling for the door followed and for over two hours the church members gossiped and fought on the sidewalks. They finally dispersed and a factional church fight is the result. No services were held at the church last Sunday. Profit in Prunes. One mile east of Santa Rosa, Sonoma county, there is an eight-acre prune orchard owned by Mrs. A. Fox. Postmaster Farmer of Santa Rosa has charge of the orchard, and has thus figured out the cost and profit for the Republican: The amount paid out for pruning and clearing away brush was $106.75; for spraying, $61.95; for plowing and cultivating three times, $34; for cultivating six times, $30; for hoeing around the trees, $19 25; for raking around the trees, $11 25; $263 20; deducted for work done on peach and pear trees, leaving the labor of producing the prunes at $253 20. To gather and deliver the prunes coat $288 50, which made the total cost of producing and marketing $541 70. On the eight acres there were produced 131,933 pounds of prunes, which were sold at $30 tent of the building is enormous, the number of rooms, at the lowest computation, being 4,422. Its treasures of marble statues, ancient gems, paintings, books, manuscripts, etc., are to be compared only with those in the British Museum. The length of the statue museum alone is a fraction over a mile. Conservative writers say that the gold contained in the medals, vessels, chains and other objects preserved in the Vatican would make more gold coins than the whole of the present European circulation. Denth of Moses Hopkins. Moses Hopkins, President of the Stearns Ranchos Company, died at his home in San Francisco Tuesday morning of last week, after a short illness of la gripe, which produced heart failure. He was tueviving brother of Mark Hopkins, the railroad magnate who died many years ago. He was born in Henderson, New York, in 1817, and was consequently in the seventy-fifth year of his age at the time of his death. He came to California in 1852. Unlike many other of the early settlers he took to the more substantial industry of agriculture rather than mining, and he located a ranch in Sutter county, where he remained until after the death of his brother. Mark did not mention Moses in his will, and the disinherited brother threatened a suit. In order to save litigation, Mark's widow (the recently deceased Mrs. Searles—she having married again—whose will her adopted son Tim Hopkins is now contesting in the Massachusetts courts) settled with him for $5,000,000. Moses was naturally of a charitable disposition, and immediately after acquiring such vast wealth he gave liberally to various worthy institutions. He endowed a school in Oakland with $50,000, and the institution has since that time been called the Hopkins Academy. Up to this time Moses had been a batchelor, but in 1884 he went East and married a Miss Benedict, a member of the well-known Benedict family of New York. This marriage resulted indirectly in caus- of the Sugar Interest. have every advantage for prospectively the sugar industry in the states over that of any European state have a home market.

King of Bavaria, of heavy duil, aurily face, looked like a farmer. The King of Wurndown up for the smallness of his doe's cloak bulk of his person. His name was cut short owing to an incident. So enormous was his that in all dining tables at home our space cut out to enable him to his meals with comfort. It preparation had been made for Austrian court dinner tables.

Postmaster rather of Santa Rosa has charge of the orchard, and has thus figured out the cost and profit for the Republican: The amount paid out for pruning and clearing away brush was $106.75; for spraying, $61.95; for plowing and cultivating three times; $34; for cultivating six times; $30; for hoosing around the trees, $19.25; for raking around the trees, $11.25; total, $263.20; less $10, deducted for work done on peach and pear trees, leaving the labor of producing the prunes at $253.20. To gather and deliver the prunes cost $288.50, which made the total cost of producing and marketing $541.70. On the eight acres there were produced 131,933 pounds of prunes, which were sold at $30 per ton, or $1,979.85. The net profit on the crop was the difference between the cost of production and marketing and price received or $1,488.15. Every bit of labor was paid for and all of the cost of raising, except the replacing of a few trees, which were put in last year, is included in the statement. Occasionally Modjeska Jokes. Mme. Modjeska, like the rest of humanity, is not averse to an occasional joke, and one of a practical nature which she recently played upon a supremely awell assemblage in New York, says a newpaper of that city was rather unique in its conception. A dinner in her honor had been given at a certain Fifth avenue mansion and toward the close guests joined the hostess in a request that Madame would favor them with a brief recitation. She stated her willingness to oblige, but though she racked her brain nothing apropos recurred to her and finally she begged to be let off with a short selection in her native tongue. The suggestion was applauded and Madame began. Although her listeners could not understand the worth her gestures and some thrilling tones held them enchaired until the final syllable, when she was overwhelmed with plaudits. As she was preparing to depart, her hostess asked her for the title of the selection she had given, and much to her surprise Madame went into a small-sized paroxysm of laughter. "I am sorry to deceive you," she said, smiling, "but my recitation hasn't any name. My memory failed so badly that as a last resort I recited the numbers from one to two hundred and thirty in Polish." Stage Kisses Are Only Shams. There are, to begin with, three distinct kinds of kisses on the stage, as there are off. First, the reverential, spiritual, devotional kiss which is imprinted on the forehead; second, the paternal, maternal, fraternal friendly kiss; deposited on the cheek; third, the loving conjugal burning-with passion, good-by-forever kiss which is not placed in either one of the mentioned places. Perhaps you are as well posted on that matter as anyone. Nearly everything on the stage, as everybody should understand, is unreal and artificial, from the scenery down to the soubrette's complexion, and the kiss is no exception. Very few of them are real, rice genuine ones, but occasionally when the pair love one another they do it with a realism that can not be mistaken. The forehead kiss is perhaps mostly genuine, and often there is actual contact in the cheek kiss, but this is very seldom when rosy lips are held up so invitingly. The actor and actress merely bow their heads and nearly touch, but their lips seldom meet. With a slight inclination of the head backward this can be done very artistically. The well-known smack sounds for all suet. In order to save litigation, Mark's widow (the recently deceased Mrs. Searles—she having married again—whose will her adopted son Tim Hopkins is now contesting in the Massachusetts courts) settled with him for $5,000,000. Moses was naturally of a charitable disposition, and immediately after acquiring such vast wealth he gave liberally to various worthy institutions. He endowed a school in Oakland with $50,000, and the institution has since that time been called the Hopkins Academy. Up to this time Moses had been a bathelor, but in 1884 he went East and married a Miss Benedicta, a member of the well-known Benedict family of New York. This marriage resulted indirectly in causing Hopkins a great deal of trouble. In 1882 he had called upon a woman named Mrs. Harriet Moore who advertised to restore hair on bald heads. Moses engaged her to apply the remedy on his head. Visits of this character finally led to Hopkins calling upon Mrs. Moore occasionally in a friendly way, and when the woman heard of his marriage she at once commenced suit for breach of promise, placing the damages at $250,000. The suit resulted in the jury giving the woman a judgment of $75,000. Hopkins was indignant at the outcome, and swore he would never pay a cent. He appealed to the Supreme Court, and that tribunal granted him a new trial. But it never came up, and it understood that the aged millionaire finally decided to compromise rather than continue the legal strife further, and gave the woman $50,000 which she was, of course, glad enough to take. It evidently healed her wounded heart; for on the 15th of last month she was married in Oakland to John Horton Morris.

The last rally of the horses has been made, and in a mo- davidish will drag its prey back. Its tentacles wrap and rewrap body, and all but one of hor limbs, warm, are bound by those slimy Nearly everything on the stage, as every- body should understand, is unreal and arti- tical, from the scenery down to the soubrette's complexion, and the kiss is no exception. Very few of them are real, rice, genuine ones, but occasionally when the pair love one another they do it with a realism that can not be mistaken. The forehead kiss is perhaps mostly genuine, and often there is actual contact in the cheek kiss, but this is very seldom when rosy lips are held up so invitingly. The actor and actress merely bow their heads and nearly touch, but their lips sel- dom meet. With a slight inclination of the head backward this can be done very arti- tically. The well-known smack sounds for all the world like a "beauty." The deception is frequently aided by the hands, which hide the rich carmine lips of the fair one from the audience.

Palace of the Popes. The Vatican, the ancient palace of the Popes of Rome, is the most magnificent building of the kind in the world. It stands on the right bank of the Tiber, on a hill called the Vaticanus, because the Latins formerly worshiped Vaticanum, an ancient oracular deity, at that place.
