The new immigration act, which became a law at the close of the session of Congress, is not so sweeping in its provisions as it was at first proposed that it should be, but it is a very stringent measure, nevertheless. It provides that the masters and surgeons of vessels shall make affidavits before the United States consul at the sailing ports that the emigrants are eligible to admission to this country. The emigrant must state the full name, age and sex; whether married or single; the calling or occupation, whether able to read or write, the nationality, the last residence, the seaport for landing in the United States, and final destination; whether he has paid his own passage or BILLS LEFT UNSIGNED.

The emigrant must state the full name, age and sex; whether married or single; the calling or occupation, whether able to read or write, the nationality, the last residence, the seaport for landing in the United States, and final destination; whether the immigrant has paid his own passage or whether it has been paid by other persons or by any corporation, society, municipality or Government; whether in possession of money, and if so, whether upward of $30, and how much if $30 or less; whether going to join a relative, and if so what relative and his name and address; whether ever before in the United States, and if so when and where; whether ever in prison, or almahouse, or supported by charity; whether a polygamist; whether under contract to perform labor in the United States, and what is the immigrant's condition of health mentally and physically, and whether deformed or crippled, and if so, from what cause. There is also provision for thorough inspection of the immigrant on his arrival on this side, in order to see that all the immigrant's statements are true, as set forth in his affidavit.

Husband—"What was the text?" Wife—"It was—it was—well, really, I have forgotten." Husband—"Humph! Was Mrs. Jones there?" Wife—"She was." Husband—"What had she on?" Wife—"Well, she had on a full wrap of very dark Pompeijan red cloth, with narrow insertions of black velvet in the sides of the skirt. A small yoke trimming of the velvet covered the upper part of the chest, and was outlined with a mixed tinsel braid. A narrow brading girdled the waist, and the cuffs were ornamented in the same way. It had a cape attachment plaited upon the shoulders and attached by other plaits at the waist line, giving a dolman appearance to the back. She——" Husband—"That'll do. I don't wonder that you forgot the text!" The Governor disapproved of the bill pividing for woman suffrage at school elections. The bill provided: "Section Every woman citizen of California (except those belonging to the classes prohibiting from voting by section one of article two) the Constitution of the State of California of the age of twenty-one and upwards, can read and write the English language shall be entitled to vote at every school election held in this State, and shall be obliged to any school office; provided that no woman shall be received from such women citizens who has not conformed to the laws regulating residence and registration of voters." For the first thing this is not consistwith Section I, Article II, of the Constition, which says: "Every male citizen of the United States, every male person wishall have acquired the rights of citizenship under or by virtue of the treaty of Queretau and every male naturalized citizen thereto will have become such ninety-two prior to any election, of the age of twenty-one years, who shall have been a resident of the State one year next preceding the election, and of the county in which he ol'er his vote ninety days, and in the election noctet thirty days, shall be entitled to vote all elections which are now or may here be authorized by law; provided no native China, no idiot, no insane person, or person convicted of any infamous crime, and no son hereafter convicted of the embezzlement or misappropriation of public money ever exercise the privileges of an elector this State." The Governor says: "This bill is so fortunately drawn as not to effect the obsought to be attained, that of allow women to vote at elections held solely by the election of school officers. Under terms, even if it could be held to be for any purpose, which is doubtful, thou would be no way of affording women an opportunity to vote for school officers with giving them the right and opportunity vote for all other officers to be voted for for the same election, as under the Austraball system, they must be furnished a ticket, which, in every instance, would for all the officers to be elected; and if they would be permitted to use booths, whence they would be unattended and unseen, be enabled to vote for the entire list of candidates, if they so desired." Concerning the fifty-cent limit the Govnor says: "The amount which must raised by the State Board of Equalizaunder existing laws, and which could possibly be considered as a charge against fifty-cent limit is $5,917,428 40; the amount of general appropriation bills,$4,667 special appropriations for new buildideficiencies,and claims,$1,535,473 42; $12,120,841 82. The amount that can raised by the fifty-cent tax upon each of the assessed valuation property in State for the year 1892 which must be taxed as a basis for this calculation.is $12,120. This includes the $30,000,the full amonage of the appropriation in bill No. 596,suiting an commissioner of public works,iw I signed with the understanding that amount not exceeding $10,000 is to be used as it does not seem to me that more than amount can possibly be judiciously DAVIS and Seeds! and the general public that he is prepared at margin possible.

He who sues for a woman's favor in the guise of a slave is apt, the suit won, to appear in his native character of savage. Many a woman is unhappy because she has not married the man that she loves. But often she would be infinitely unhappier if she had married him. Friendship frequently ripens into love, but very seldom does love react into friendship. When it does it is permanent. Matches made in heaven frequently turn out as if they had been made in the other place. Men are never such heroes or such fools as in the presence of women. Many a man's love is but gratified egotism; many a woman's love on the confirmation of her vanity. If tenderness be passion in repose, passion must be tenderness aroused. Tenderness, indeed, is the source and sanctity of the deepest passion. No man or woman can be all that he or she should be who has not the qualities of both sexes. The one thing a woman cannot forgive in a man is weakness. The one thing a man cannot forgive in a woman is strength. LEFT UNSIGNED.

The friends of the district system of irrigation regard them as inimical to their interests and as aimed at the destruc- tion of the irrigation districts throughout the State. The Swarm of Office Neckers. The ex-office holders camping in Wash- ington are almost delirious with joy over Cleveland's modification of the rule concerning reappointments to office. It is believed that the President will appoint "exes" where it suits his pleasure and apply the rule where candidates are obnoxious. One result of the announcement that the "exes" would stand some chance is that the Senators and Repre- sentatives are besieged by a greater number of candidates than ever. When it was announced that "exes" were not in it, they retired reluctantly from the field, and others who had not held office came to the front by the score. Now, however, the "exes" arm again fighting bravely in the front ranks, and between all the Congressman's life is made miserable. Stephen M. White is the only Democratic Senator from the whole Pacific Coast region, and his influence is sought not only by Cali- fornians, but by candidates in far away Idaho, Montana, Washington, Oregon, Utah, Arizona and Nevada; his correspondence is probably more voluminous than that of any Senator, with the exception of Voorhies of Indiana. The scramble among the office-seekers at the White House is disgraceful. They are admitted to Cleveland's presence in ones, twoes, threees and in groups from the ante- room, where they push the crowd or snarl at each other like a pack of hungry coyotes. The leading hotels are not as full as they were, but the lunch counters are doing a great business. Signs and Signals of the Sea. A good deal has been said in the news-papers recently about the messages which passed between the Umbria and the Gallia This hand is so massive that during a snow-storm sometimes the clock is retarded by the weight of the flakes that alight upon it. Twenty men could stand under Big Ben in a rain storm and escape a wetting if the rain fell in an exact perpendicular and stayed where it fell. The new light at the top of the Parliament tower is forty-three steps higher than Big Ben. The old light was twenty-four steps higher still. The new light is of 2000 candle-power. When the light is being fixed two men stand in the lantern, and they have plenty of room. The Parliament light is now a conspicuous object in London. Building Associations. The last report of the Bank Commissioners on the building and loan associations of California shows at least the magnitude to which the business has grown. The Commissioners have not been able to examine the associations in detail, as their time is taken up by the banks and funds, for examination of the association are not provided by the law. The Bank Commissioners have, therefore, except in two cases, depended on the returns sent by the officers of the associations for the figures of the report. The extent to which the business has grown is shown by the table compiled from the reports of 113 "local" associations, 8 "national" and 2 unclassified associations. This shows assets and liabilities of $15,750,321 46. The loans of the associations foot up to $15,125,194 97. The dues of the members are given at $9,604,429 92 and the earnings at $3,531,206 15, and other liabilities raise the total to the amount stated. The marvelous growth of the building and loan associations in the last few years has attracted the attention of economists, statisticians and lawmakers. They have proved one of the most important forces in the social economy of the United States. They have corrected the tendency of modern life to make mankind renters instead of homeowners. They have enabled hundreds of thousands to own their own homes who could not by any other means have obtained one.

The leading hotels are not as full as they were, but the lunch counters are doing a great business. Signs and signals of the Sea. A good deal has been said in the newspapers recently about the messages which passed between the Umbria and the Gallia in mid-Atlantic. Two large steamers can speak at sea by means of an elaborate system of signalling with quite as much ease as two persons can talk across a street. The system consists of eighteen flags and a code pennant worked from the mast head, gaff, or the yardarm, according as the wind is blowing. They are in three sizes, corresponding to different classes of ships; the square flags measuring from five to ten feet, and the pennants in proportion. The flags are one burgee, four pennants, and thirteen flags. These eighteen flags stand for the consonants of the alphabet, and it is by a combination of two, three, or four flags hanging in certain prescribed positions that the sentiments of seamen are conveyed from one ship to another. It does not matter whether a ship be English, French, Italian, or Portuguese, the language of flags is universal, each signal is universal throughout the code having but one meaning. The system of flag signalling is now so thorough that a well known maritime authority recently declared that the system at present in vogue is as perfect as it can be made. The following are signals used by vessels in distress: In the daytime a gun fired at intervals of about a minute, or the flags N.C., or a square flag having a ball above or below it. If the signal should be given in the night-time the minute-gun is fired, tar barrels are lighted up, or rockets are sent flying into the air. At night a steamer must show a white elevated light visible twenty points of the compass; a starboard green light, and a port red light visible round ten points of the compass. A steamer towing doubles the white masthead light. A sailing vessel is only obliged to show the red and green side lights. When you pass a ship at sea which shows a white fixed light and a white flash light, you know it is a pilot, and when you pass a vessel showing a white light only, you know that that ship is making no progress, but is lying at anchor. Vessels being overtaken show a white light at the stern. Besides this system of signs there is a very ingenious method of signalling adopted for vessels which are broken down. These show vertically three black balls in the daytime, and three red lights at night. Telegraph ships show three balls, red, white, red in the daytime, and three lights, red, white, red in the night. The red balls are globe shaped, and the white are somewhat in the shape of a diamond. When the stormy winds do blow and fogs prevail, and mists creep along the deep, vessels at anchor night and day ring a ball. Steamers plonging through the fog and snow make long blasts on the steam whistle, sailing ships going make one, two, three long blasts on the fog horn, and fishermen not at anchor sound the alarm by means of the fog horn and bell alternately. All these various operations must be carried on at intervals of not less than two minutes. The loans of the associations foot up to $15,125,194.97. The dues of the members are given at $9,604,429.92 and the earnings at $3,531,206.15, and other liabilities raise the total to the amount stated. The marvelous growth of the building and loan associations in the last few years has attracted the attention of economists, statisticians and lawmakers. They have proved one of the most important forces in the social economy of the United States. They have corrected the tendency of modern life to make mankind renters instead of homeowners. They have enabled hundreds of thousands to own their own homes who could not by any other means have obtained one. Philadelphia, in which the first association was formed in 1831, is known as the city of homes. The number of families and the number of houses in that city are almost the same, and a large proportion of the householders are free holders as well. The associations are in fact co-operative home building companies. It might be possible for a man to accumulate enough to buy him a home in ten years. The prospect is so remote that he does not save. The building and loan association combines him with say nine other men and together they are able to build one of them a home in a year and a second one the next year, and so on until all are provided. The machinery of the association and the manner in which loans are assigned are simple and their success is seen by the figures. In Pennsylvania in 1890 there were 1,200 associations having assets of $950,000,000, and in the United States altogether over 6,500 associations with assets of $550,000,000 and 1,500,000 members. The associations are changing renters into home owners. They are developing thrift, economy and good business habits among the people, and they will have thus no small share in assuring the stability of the republic.
