GRAND JURY'S REPORT. No Indictments Found, but a Courthouse for Orange County Recommended. The Grand Jury reported on Wednesday afternoon last. We give a synopsis of the report: "We have made a careful and thorough examination of the books, vouchers and record of the various officials of Orange county, as follows: Board of Supervisors, superintendent of schools, coroner and public administrator, county surveyor, tax collector, auditor, assessor, clerk, treasurer, recorder and sheriff; also of the municipal officers of the cities of Santa Ana, Anaheim and Orange, justices of the peace, constables and city and county jails, as well as the roads and bridges throughout the county. "We found the books and accounts of the above named officials correct and neatly kept. Upon a careful examination of the books of the county supervisors and other officials, we find no violation of sections 5.0, 7 and 8 of the County Government Act regarding the loaning or giving the credit of the county to any person or corporation, and the incurring of indebtedness or liabilities in excess of the revenue provided for the payment of the same." The various city jails in the county were examined and found to be in fairly good condition, the Anaheim jail having been newly located and renovated. The county jail is in very good condition, the rooms and cells being kept neat and clean, and the grounds surrounding the jail being tastefully improved. The roads in the county are in fairly good condition. The practice of diverting the waste waters from artesian walls and the draining of lands into county roads, as is now done in the second supervisorial district, should be prohibited. The bridge two hundred yards north of Bolsa should be made longer and placed in the middle of the road. The ditches in said district should be kept clean, and the county road beginning one-half mile north of Garden Grove store and running west to the Alamitos ranch line should be properly graded to prevent an accumulation of water in the road. On the north side of Olive mill the road is too narrow, containing many squirrel holes. Easterly at the crossing of the Orange ditch, the bridge needs repairs and a railing at the eastside of the bridge to prevent accidents on account of the rather narrow structure. To the northwest of this bridge extends a gully into the main body of the road, which should be filled up. The road being narrow a few short turnouts would be advisable. The roads in and around Richfield and Placentia need filling up. At Villa Park where the Anaheim road crosses Santiago creek, the south bank needs protection. In the fourth district the roads gener- THE SHIP'S SURGEON. WHY HE RESIGNED AFTER MAKING ONE ROUND TRIP. A Herrifying Experience With a Madman—The Surgeon to Be the Subject Operated Upon—Saved by a Knife That Needed a Little Sharpening. "When I first hung out my shingle," said a prominent New York physician to a group of friends, among them a reporter, "I thought it would be easy to drum up a good paying practice, but I soon realized my mistake. Patients were few. I didn't earn $10 the first month, and one day when I felt very discouraged and was thinking of giving up the study of the healing art for a more lucrative commercial pursuit I met a friend. The latter was the agent for a line of transatlantic steamers, and on telling him of my poor success as a physician he offered me a position as surgeon on one of his ships. I accepted the berth, and on the evening of the third day at sea I had an experience with a madman, which I shall never forget. "The weather was very stormy, and as I in consequence had had but little sleep the two previous nights I felt rather drowsy and sat in a chair in my stateroom doing. Suddenly I was awakened by a tremendous lurching of the vessel. Then I heard a loud knock at my door, and a tall, strange and very excited dark featured man hurriedly entered my cabin. The man's actions were so peculiar that I jumped to my feet and reached for a revolver which lay on my table, but I was too slow. The stranger had seized the weapon. I then asked the man grudely what he wanted. He did not reply for some time and then, after locking the door and putting the key and my pistol in his pocket, said: "I'm not sick, doctor. I've come here," exposing a long knife from the sleeve of his coat, 'by order of the captain to cut your throat.' "For a moment I looked the stranger in the face, and his wild, steady stare soon convinced me that I had to deal with a madman. "I am not a coward, yet even now the thought of that moment makes me shudder. There I was in a remote part of the ship alone with a madman of twice my physical strength, without a chance to escape or means to give alarm, and, being unarmed, entirely at his mercy. I therefore decided that resistance would be of the least service to me and that apparent acquiescence would be best. All this quickly flashed through my mind, and accordingly feigning the utmost indifference I could say: "The captain's orders must, of course, he obeyed. But can you do the A FAMOUS PHOTOGRAPHY Mrs. Cameron, Who Was a Herschel and Tennyson. In The Century V. O. Scott nor has an article on "Mrs. O. Scott Her Friends and Her Photograph Mr. O'Connor says: A feature of her personality was at the root of her great success photographer was her love of was beautiful. "She was always a face," as an old woman in Fry who remembers her put it Charles Turner said the same poet's language when he told her sonnet he addressed to her on the Isle of Wight after a visit "loved all loveliness." In obey this impulse she invariably spoke to any cue, however whether in a great London thou or a village lane, whose beauty her "I am Mrs. Cameron," say "Perhaps you have heard You would oblige me very much would let me photograph you. Let me do so?" And by such unconventional means she prevailed many, absolute strangers though were, to sit to her. One of her models captured way was a young lady coming over visitor to Freshwater Mrs on, engrossed at that time in markably fine studies illustrated "Idylls of the King," was at a model for Queen Guinevere advent of the fair stranger she her doubts. Here was a beauty her purpose, within the had carried her off to lunch anquent photography. The lady proved a most kind defatigable model. The village had already been secured for thur, and Mrs Cameron's picture him in this character is one of things in the collection. A friend one day to Dimbola, found that lady looking rather fatigued. "Oh," she said, with an gesture, "I am so tired." Supposing her fatigue was so long walk on a midsummer my friend made some suitable to the matter, but the young swered with a smile: "Oh, no. I have not been for I have been lying on the floor last two hours, clutching the pankla." Mrs. Cameron, ever kind selfish, possessed the faculty of out such qualities in others she died, a few months after her turn to Ceylon. As the day died," her sons Lord Tennyson," as the day Sunday January 26th, tender gracious spirit of our mother passed away in peac- On the north side of Olive mill the road is too narrow, containing many squirrel holes. Easterly at the crossing of the Orange ditch, the bridge needs repairs and a railing at the east side of the bridge to prevent accidents on account of the rather narrow structure. To the northwest of this bridge extends a gully into the main body of the road, which should be filled up. The road being narrow a few short turnouts would be advisable. The roads in and around Richfield and Placentia need filling up. At Villa Park where the Anaheim road crosses Santiago creek, the south bank needs protection. In the fourth district the roads generally are in good condition. It is recommended that all approaches be extended on a level five feet from the outside plank. The new bridge on Chapman street is commended and all bridges should hereafter be built on the same plan. In the fifth district the roads and bridges as a rule are in good condition, but a number of improvements are recommended. Roads in the Newport district are already being improved and graded. The following amounts have been spent for roads and bridges during the last fiscal year: General road fund... $3,363 07 Second supervisorial district... 3,436 29 Third supervisorial district... 6,576 48 Fourth supervisorial district... 2,171 10 Fifth supervisorial district... 6,952 24 Total... $22,499 18 With this showing it is believed that in proportion to the amount expended the roads should be in better condition than they are at present. The grand jury makes the following strong recommendation in favor of the courthouse: "Following up the recommendations of the grand jury of 1896 in regard to the very great need of a safe and suitable place in which to keep the valuable books and documents of Orange county, and recognizing the incalculable and almost irreparable loss that would come upon our county should a fire devastate the building now in use for county offices and for storing our public records, we do most respectfully urge upon the proper authorities the necessity of taking immediate steps toward building a place of safety for our documents; and our judgment is that the proper time is now at hand to submit to the people of Orange county the proposition of building a courthouse." The attention of the grand jury having been called to the condition of the Santa Ana river and a plan to control the waters of the river having been outlined by County Surveyor Kellogg, the grand jury approved the plan and recommends that immediate steps be taken to carry out the work. The attention of the authorities is called to the case of Ramon Arce of Capistrano, who is running a saloon without a license. The grand jury investigated the charge and asserted that it was well-founded. Arce petitioned for a license from the supervisors but was denied, and is now said to be carrying on the liquor business without a license. An information was filed with the grand jury concerning the indiscriminate placing of poison upon certain streets of Santa Ana for the purpose of poisoning dogs. This was investigated but the evidence was not deemed sufficient to justify any action of the grand jury. The action of the district attorney in prosecuting immoral characters is endorsed and it is recommended that similar cases in the future be prosecuted in the same vigorous manner. "I am not a coward, yet even now the thought of that moment makes me shudder. There I was in a remote part of the ship alone with a madman of twice my physical strength, without a chance to escape or means to give alarm, and, being unarmed, entirely at his mercy. I therefore decided that resistance would be of the least service to me and that apparent acquiescence would be best. All this quickly flashed through my mind, and accordingly feigning the utmost indifference I could I said: "The captain's orders must, of course, he obeyed. But can you do the deed quickly?" "Oh, yes, replied the madman, calmly surveying the knife which he held in his hand. I'm a butcher by trade and can do the job easily with this tool." "Here he paused to examine with his thumb the edge of the knife, which looked rather blunt, and as he did so an idea struck me, and I remarked: "'Your knife does not seem to have a very keen edge. The trachea is tough, you know, and rather difficult to cut with such a blunt instrument' "The madman now looked at me with a curious expression, as if trying to read my thoughts, and then, after examining the knife more closely, seemed to think my suggestion a good one, for he said: "'Yes, doctor, I think you are right. A little sharpening will do no harm, so if you don't mind waiting I will go to the galley and get the cook to help me put an edge on it with its grindstone.'" "This was exactly what I wanted, as feeling sure he would not lock the door after him, I thought my escape would be easy, but picture my dismay when on his departure I discovered that the door was locked as securely as before." "What was I to do? I flung open the porchole and shouted with all my might for assistance, but the fury of the gale was now so great that all my efforts to make myself heard were of no avail. Then in a frenzy of despair I looked about for some weapon of defense, but there was not so much as a stick to be found in my cabin. I put my ear to the keyhole, and thinking I heard footsteps approaching. I impulsively threw off my coat, went to the farthest end of the room and, standing as defiantly as possible, resolved to fight to the last" "I remember then the door burst open and the entry of the madman, not alone, as I expected, but securely pinched and attended by two of the ship's crew in charge of the second officer. The relief of the moment was so great that it completely prostrated me, and I fell in a faint to the floor." "When I came to my senses, I learned that the peculiar and excited manner of the maniac the large knife in his posession and his anxiety to sharpen it drew suspicion on him and induced the officer to secure and bring him to my cabin to ascertain his condition Need less to say I pronounced the man insane, and he was kept securely confused and watched day and night until the ship arrived in Liverpool, where he was handed over to the proper authorities I returned to New York on the same vessel, but never went to sea in the capacity of a surgeon again — Washing ton Star."

Much amusement was afforded the passengers on a Union station trolley car in Portland by a businesslike passenger who demanded a receipt for an fare. “Do you think I'm dishonest?” asked the conductor. “I don't know, replied the eccentric man. I've never been on your car when it was crowded. After making many sarcastic remarks the conductor signed his name to the piece of paper handed him by the passenger. The receipt was worded as follows: ‘Received 5 cents for fare from passenger riding from Elm street to Union station.’ On being asked why he wanted a receipt, the man said he was getting tired quarreling with absent-minded conductors, who frequently asked for the necessary nickel after it had been paid. He also said that a few nights ago in Boston he had to get two passengers to prove that he had paid his fare. As the man was always placed in an embarrassing position on such occasions, he adopted the receipt method in order to save further trouble in the future.” —Kennebec (Me.) Journal. A FAMOUS PHOTOGRAPHER. In The Century V. O. Scott O'Connor has an article on "Mrs. Cameron, Her Friends and Her Photographs." Mr. O'Connor says: "A feature of her personality which lay at the root of her great success as a photographer was her love of all that was beautiful. 'She was always took by face,' as an old woman in Freshwater who remembers her put it to me. Charles Turner said the same thing in poet's language when he told her, in the connet he addressed to her on leaving the isle of Wight after a visit, that she loved all loveliness." In obedience to this impulse she invariably stopped and spoke to any one, however unknown, whether in a great London thoroughfare or a village lane, whose beauty attracted her. "I am Mrs. Cameron," she would say. "Perhaps you have heard of me. You would oblige me very much if you would let me photograph you. Will you get me do so?" And by such bold and unconventional means she provailed on many, absolute strangers though they were, to sit to her. One of her models captured in this way was a young lady come as a summer visitor to Freshwater. Mrs. Cameron, ungrassed at that time in some remarkably fine studies illustrative of the Idylls of the King, was at a loss for a model for Queen Guinevere. But the advent of the fair stranger settled all other doubts. Here was a beauty suited to her purpose, and within the hour she had carried her off to lunch and subsequent photography. The lady proved a most kind and indefatigable model. The village postman had already been secured for King Arthur, and Mrs. Cameron's picture of him in this character is one of the best things in the collection. A friend, going one day to Dimbola, found the young lady looking rather fatigued. "Oh," she said, with an expressive gesture, "I am so tired." Supposing her fatigue was the result of a long walk on a midsummer day, my friend made some suitable reference to the matter, but the young lady answered with a smile: "Oh, no. I have not been for a walk. Have been lying on the floor for the last two hours, clutching the postman's knuckle." Mrs. Cameron, ever kind and unselfish, possessed the faculty of bringing out such qualities in others. In 1879 she died, a few months after her last return to Ceylon. "As the day died," her sons wrote to Lord Tennyson, "as the day died on Sunday, January the 26th, the sweet, tender, gracious spirit of our beloved mother passed away in peace." No THE SULTAN OF TURKEY. Ex-Minister Terrell Pays Tribute to His Charm of Manner. Hon A W Terrell, formerly United States minister at Constantinople, contributes "An Interview With the Sultan" to The Century Mr. Terrell says: The sultan is over 50 years old, of medium height, with clear olive complexion, dark hair, high forehead and large dark brown eyes. The habitual expression of his face is one of extreme sadness. Though the pashas who attend his palace when ministers or embassadors are entertained are decorated with regal splendor, he always appears in plain garb, wearing a red fez, a frock coat and trousers of dark blue stuff and patent leather shoes. A broad service sword with steel scabbard, which he holds sheathed in his hand, completes the costume. Sometimes a single decoration is worn on his breast. When he is seen thus plainly attired in the throne-room of his palace, on the first day of the feast of Bairam, seated on an ottoman covered with cloth of gold, to receive the congratulations of his civil and military chiefs, who are all radiant in uniforms and decorations, the contrast is very striking. No Christians but those of the diplomatic corps ever witness this impressive ceremony, which is conducted with the order that distinguishes a military review, but with an oriental servility that an American finds difficult to understand. On such occasions Osman Pasha stands at the sultan's left, holding a cloth of gold scarf, which all reverently kiss after saluting their ruler. No sovereign in Europe is more courtly or refined in entertaining his guests, and few can be more agreeable in conversation. In his personal intercourse with foreign representatives he is alike free from that stilted dignity which repels confidence and from that absence of real dignity which invites familiarity. When I first dined at the palace, the sultan sat at the head of the table, with Mrs Terrell at his right and myself at his left Osman Pasha, Ismael Pasha, the former khedive of Egypt, the grand vizier and other ministers of state were the other guests. Nothing could excel the excellence of the cuisine of which he partook with his guests; the table service and decorations; the magnificence of the dining room or the excellence of his wines; which always remain untasted except by Christian guests. Each pasha wore the insignia of his rank, blazing with stars and decorations, while the plain costume of the sultan was alone in harmony with my own No armed men stood guard at the palace doors, and except a detail from the imperial guard, who always salute a foreign representative on his arrival, no soldiers have ever seen them within the palace walls.

Mr. Lincoln once remarked to a fellow passenger on the old time mud wagon on the corduroy road which anteceded railroads that all men were prompted by selfishness in doing good or evil. His fellow passenger was anagonizing his position, when they were passing over a corduroy bridge that spanned a slough. As they crossed this bridge and the mud wagon was shaking like a Sucker with chills, they espied an old razorback sow on the bank of the slough, making a terrible noise because her pigs had got into the slough and were unable to get out and in danger of drowning. As the old coach bean to climb the hillside Mr. Lincoln called out, "Driver, can't you stop just moment?" The driver replied, "If the other feller don't object." The other feller—who was no less a personage than at that time Colonel E. D. Baker, the gallant general who gave his life in defense of Old Glory at Ball's Bluff—did not object," when Mr. Lincoln jumped out, ran back to the slough and began lift the little pigs out of the mud and water and place them on the bank. When he returned, Colonel Baker remarked, "Now, Abe, where does selfishness come in on this little episode?" Why, bless you soul, Ed, that was the very essence of selfishness. I would have had no peace of mind all day had gone on and left that suffering old sow worrying over those pigs. I did it to get peace of mind, don’t you see?—Springfield (Ills.) Monitor.

A FEW DON'TS. Advice That Has a Direct Bearing on Health and Happiness. Perhaps you have all heard or read the advice contained in the following "don'ts," but it is good enough to be repeated over and over again. We take them from a paper that seems to think as we do about it: Don't catch cold. Catching cold is much more preventable than it is generally supposed to be. Keep your feet warm and dry, your head cool, your chest well protected. Avoid exposure with an empty stomach. Take care not to cool off suddenly when you are heated. Keep out of drafts, wear flannels and be careful generally. Don't sleep in the same flannels that you wear during the day. Don't wear thin stockings or light soled shoes in cold or in wet weather. Don't neglect personal cleanliness, but use the bath with moderation and in accordance with your general health. The daily cold bath is all right for the rugged, but it is a great tax upon the vitality of weak persons and should not be indulged in if the results are at all doubtful. Tepid water is always better for those that are not in robust health Judge for yourself. Don't keep the sun out of your living rooms and your sleeping rooms Sunlight is absolutely necessary to put in proper condition the air that we breathe. Don't neglect your house drainage. The first condition of the family's heath is a dry, sweet atmosphere. Don't forget that Dr Good Habits, Dr Diet and Dr Exercise are the best doctors in the world.—Philadelphia Times. That Was Clear Enough. "That's one great fault about many of these picture exhibitions," exclaimed Mrs Hooley as she glared first at the picture and then at the catalogue. "What is it, my dear?" asked her husband. "I'm afraid you don't understand." "Nobody could understand this sort of thing," went on the predominant partner of the Hooley household, turning over several pages at once. "There's a picture and no title under it. You've got to look in this book for it." "You mean that one representing a boy lying on his mother's lap while she makes use of a cane? Well, you can guess the title of that easily enough." "Oh, I know I'm not so clever as you. What is it?" "Whaling in Lapland, of course." And Mrs Hooley looked as if she wished the speaker were a little boy Strand Magazine.

WASHINGTON, December 25.—Pension Commissioner Evans, in an interview, states some of his reasons for wanting to publish the pension list. He said: The cry of pension frauds has become so common of late that the people do not regard it seriously nowadays, and it is for the express purpose of proving the fallacy of this charge that I recommended the publication of a complete list showing each pensioner, his address, disability and the amount of the pension recieved. The list will show why this woman or that man is being supported by the Government. But, best of all, it will bring to light the frauds which do exist. We all know that there are frauds, but I say without fear of contradiction that in no business enterprise, where so large an amount of money is disbursed, are there so few mistakes. The cost of publishing this pension list may amount to $200,000, but who can estimate what it will save the United States in unearthing frauds? The publication will stir up neighborhoods and set the gossips to work. They will detect frauds and will notify us. SIGHTSEEING IN LONDON. A Chicago Girl Notes That English Women Have Large Feet. "Under these circumstances we took our first drive down Picadilly, and Europe to me dates from that moment," writes Miss Lilian Bell in The Ladies' Home Journal. "The ship, the landing, the custom house, the train, the hotel—all these were mere preliminaries to Europe, which began then. People told me in America how my heart would swell at this and how I would thrill at that, but it was not so. My first real thrill came on me in Picadilly. It went all over me in little shivers and came out at the ends of my fingers and then began once more at the base of my brain and did it all over again. "I remember nothing definite about that first drive. I, for my part, saw with unseeing eyes. My sister had seen it all before, so she had the power of speech. Occasionally she prodded me and cried, 'Look, oh, look quickly!' But I never swerved 'I can't look. If I do, I shall miss something.' You attend to your own window and I'll attend to mine. Coming back I will see your side." "When we got beyond the shops, I said to the cabman: 'Do you know exactly the way you have come?' 'Yes, miss,' he said. 'Then go back precisely the same..." Mrs. G.
