Population of Southern California. In view of the fact that preparations are already being made to take the census of 1900, the latest data obtainable on the population of Southern California will be of interest. The school census of 1899 undoubtedly furnishes the most reliable figures on which to base an estimate. The full returns from all the counties in the State have now been tabulated by the State Superintendent of Schools, and the Southern California counties make the following showing: Los Angeles.....42,043 San Diego.....8,504 San Bernardino.....6,528 Orange.....5,429 Santa Barbara.....4,994 Riverside.....4,710 Ventura.....4,082 Taking the usual basis of one census child to each four and one-half population, we have the following figures on population: Los Angeles.....189,103 San Diego.....82,918 San Bernardino.....29,376 Orange.....24,430 Santa Barbara.....21,195 Riverside.....21,195 Ventura.....18,369 Total.....343,304 The census of 1890 gives the population of this territory as 201,352. This indicates again of 141,952—a very gratifying evidence of the steady development and prosperity of Southern California. Los Angeles county has jumped from 101,454 to nearly 190,000—almost doubling its population. One question suggests itself in connection with these figures—will Southern California have two Congressional districts under the next apportionment? That is hardly possible. The present basis of apportionment is one Congressman to every 173,901 population. The basis ten years before was 151,911, and for the previous decade, 131,425. That indicates that the basis under the census of 1900 will probably be over 190,000. It is very likely to be as high as 200,000, as there will be a general reluctance to increase the size of the Lower House much beyond its present numbers. Los Angeles county will probably be made one Congressional district, and what disposition will be made of the other Southern California counties is a problem. We shall need over 50,000 population to form a Congressional district, and it seems probable that the six Southern California counties outside of Los Angeles will be thrown into a district, with Kern, Kings and Tulare, or Kern, Inyo and Tulare. Another arrangement might be to connect Ventura an Santa Barbara counties with the district that will be formed of the coast counties, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz. A JUDGE'S STORY "Should a lawyer defend a man charged with murder when he knocks the man to be guilty?" This question led to an animated discussion, where after some two hours, was brought an end by the judge suddenly exclaiming, "Do you see that man?" The benchers turned their faces at the direction indicated by the speaker just in time to see a tall, lank man shabby attire leave the building. Before a word was spoken by an curious benchers the judge said though musing to himself, thought tone loud enough for the others to be heard. "Strange that I should see that just at this moment and when we discuss a question that he can have answered. His life, like mine, been a failure; but, thank God, my grets, though many, can never be bitter as his are. He ruined his career as a lawyer by defending a man had confessed that he was guilty murder. "Tell us the story," exclaimed one known as the proctor. "He was ruined," began the jury "by his ambition." "Ambition," suggested the solicitor with a genial smile on his kindly face, "is responsible for me good and much evil. It is ambition that has made wrecks, legal driftwomen of many of us. We have dreamed great deeds in our profession; we have built fairy castles in the air, we others have by hard work succeeded for one"— "The story, the story!" exclaimed several of the benchers. The judge, thus urged, told his stance: "Some 40 years ago it was that dertered the small courthouse in a town in the western section of New York.

MONEY IN GOATS. So Says the Department of Agriculture, and It has Studied the Matter. There may be a great future for the goat in this country yet—and outside the pages of the comic papers, too. The Department of Agriculture has taken the goat up seriously. It says there is big money in him. He can feed himself in summer on uplands worthless at the start-off for any other use, and in a few years he will have cleared the ground of all undergrowth, bushes, briars, mulein, dock, ironweed, etc., leaving it ready for the timothy and clover. In winter he will thrive on cornstalks. He is a much hardier animal than the sheep, and, the Department of Agriculture says, is much less trouble and much less expense. All the farmers who have gone into goat-raising are contented and even enthusiastic over the results. Dry goatskin is in brisk demand in the New York market at 40 cents a pound. The Angora goats are "good milkers," their fleeces bring a good price, their flesh is good eating. "I have raised a ewe goat," writes a South Carolina man to the department, "that will give four quartes per day of as good milk as any cow on my plantation, and the feed of one of my cows will keep twelve goats." Like reports come from Texas, Missouri, Kentucky and other States. "To a person who has never seen the results of the presence of Angoras on brush lands," writes an Iowa goat raiser, "a ride through my pastures is a revelation. Where, three years ago, the ground was densely covered with undergrowth of hazel, crabtree, oak, buckberry and other brush, it is now growing the finest blue grass. I have over 600 acres which have been reclaimed, and the value of the land has been enhanced at least $10 an acre." One of the department's correspondents smacks his lips over (Angora) goat flesh, pronouncing it finer than mountain mutton. There are now about half a million goats of all sorts in the United States, according to the department's census, most of them in Texas. Isn't there a field (so to speak) for the goats on our Yankee hill farms—the run-down abandoned and semi-abandoned ones? Certainly there's store of food for them there. It's worth considering.—Hartford Courant. "If any one present knows of any just cause or impediment, why these two persons should not be joined together in holy matrimony, let him now speak." That is the challenge of the old marriage service. It is the challenge HERE'S A WHOPPER. Vancouver's Remarkable Contribution to the List of Fairy Tales. VANCOUVER, July 22 — Wm. Edwards, a miner hailing from New York, is in the Rossland Hospital, a living example of the astounding fact that a man can eat grass as an exclusive diet for eighteen days and live to tell the tale. Edwards was employed to do some work on Sophie Mountain, a wild part of British Columbia. He camped on the mountain with two companions. His companions left him alone for the day, and Edwards thought he would clamber up the side of the mountain for a short distance. He could not find his way back to camp. He went round and round in circles. He struck a trapper's empty lodge and slept there for the first night. For the next three days and nights he wandered listlessly in a circle, always coming back to the empty cabin. On the third day he killed a beaver by tumbling a huge rock on it. He screamed aloud with joy as he fell on the ground to tear it to pieces. As a monster cougar stalked up to his prostrate form and sniffed at him Edwards screamed with fear, and in his crazy rage and fright he struck the beast in the face with his fist. The cougar snarled viciously, made a grab at the freshly killed beaver clutched in Edward's hands and made off with it. Edwards prepared for the end and made his will. Grass, roots and weeds made up his diet during the rest of these eighteen days and nights, half the time of which Edwards crawled on the ground. On the eighteenth day his toes were off his bleeding feet, his clothes were in rags, barely covering his almost bare bones. Edwards was again visited by the panther, who sat on his haunches blinking at the dying man, evidently waiting for him but shuffle off before he devoured him, but toward evening the panther pricked up his ears, sniffed the ground, and dashed off in the darkness. The animal had scented another human being, this time with a gnn. Edwards shouted feebly, and before many minutes William McQuarry, a trapper, was bending over Edwards with a whisky flask. George's Teeth. The American Journal of Dental Science for 1843 states that George Wash.- Some 40 years ago it was thwarted by small courthouse in a town in the western section of York. Court was in session, and hash that had fallen upon the crowds in the room was oppressive. Nothing heard at that time but the ticking clock and the breathing of the tators. The presiding judge was lying up some legal question in books before him. The rapt attentive of the jurors and the eagerness of counsel caused me to realize that a lot of more than ordinary interest and portrance was in progress. I asked a stander what the case on trial was gazed at me in surprise for a moor and then exclaimed, 'You must stranger in these parts?' "I am,' I replied. I have just here from New York city to file a plaintiff in an action of ejectment. "This,' replied my informant; murder trial, and there," he pointed direction I was to look. 'Is there who will certainly hang.' "I looked at the prisoner at the He was a good looking young man about 25 years of age. There was no thing in the expression of his pale that convinced me of his guilt. "While the trial judge turned page after page of the law books I read the details of the crime." Here the story teller took a nipflask the proctor handed to and then resumed: "I learned that in his house outskirts of the town, one morning months before the day of the John Peterkin, a wealthy old man had been it, was said, in the hall keeping large sums of money in house, was found murdered, shot in back. The murdered man had seated when he was shot; for his from it. Peterkin, who was about years old, lived alone with his niece pretty girl about 18 years old. She was who discovered the murder. She had sufficiently recovered from alarm, the niece Mary Peterkin, and the neighbors. "At first it was thought that motive of the crime had been robbed but when the police discovered that safe, the door of which was unlucky and half way open, contained $10 and that the old man's watch had been taken that theory had to be denied. For several days the case mystery. Then it came to the edge of the chief of police that HENIDERdidion, the only son of a woman whose father had been postmasterthe little town, had been seen at the house and had spoken unkind old Peterkin. HenIDERdidion was put arrest. "When I had learned this matter said the judge,"the trial judge said we will call Blank, looked up from legal books and said,"I will admit testimony objected to." "While Judge Blank was revived law questions I looked at Peterkin. She was seated in the courtroom and was an exceedingly young woman, the pallor refined face illuminated by larger eyes. She was in deep mourning but enhanced her beauty." "Proceed,' exclaimed Judge Blank." "The witness on the stand—a officer—then testified that he had a small revolver with an ivory ball in some bushes just outside of th There are now about half a million goats of all sorts in the United States, according to the department's census, most of them in Texas.

That is the challenge of the old marriage service. It is the challenge of church and state, and rarely is answered. But if that challenge were offered to Science how often would she forbid the banns, in the interest of woman's health and happiness. Thousands of happy maidens who have looked to marriage as the consumption of their earthly happiness, have found it a blight to the body, a martyrdom to the mind. The irregular and painful periods of maidenhood were looked upon as a part of the common lot of woman, and so, neglected. Wifehood brought with it debilitating drains, and the trial of motherhood left an inflamed and ulcerated condition of the womanly organs. Then followed the slow decay of body and mind; the one tormented with pain; the other irritable, or despondent. Science which cannot forbid the banns of marriage, can undo these sad consequences. It is the hand of science which offers afflicted women that marvelous medicine, Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It positively cures irregularities, female weakness and disagreeable drains on the system. It allays inflammation and heals ulceration. It makes the trial of motherhood easy and brief. It brings back lost health and beauty. "Favorite Prescription" contains no alcohol, whisky or other stimulant. Nothing is "just as good" for women as the "Prescription." Accept no substitute.

George's Teeth. The American Journal of Dental Science for 1848 states that George Washington lost most of his natural teeth at an early age, relying upon the art and skill of one Mr. John Greenwood, a distinguished dentist of New York, to make good the deficiency. Washington's artificial teeth were manufactured from the ivory of the tusk of the elephant, the only material at that time employed for the purpose. An Episcopal Joke.

She was seated in the courtroom and was an exceedingly young woman, the pallor of refined face illuminated by large eyes. She was in deep mourning but enhanced her beauty. "The proceed," exclaimed Judge Blank. "The witness on the stand—a officer—then testified that he had a small revolver with an ivory knife in some bushes just outside of the door of the room where the crime been committed. "We were there any marks on the volver?" asked Horace Dash, counting the prisoner, the man I just put out to you. "Yes," replied the witness. "What were the marks?" "The initials M.P.' relied witness." "Did you ascertain who owned pistol?" asked Lawyer Dash. "Yes; Mary Peterkin." "An exclamation of surprise around that little courtroom.

He at me in surprise for a moment an who had formerly been employed by old Peterkin as a housekeeper. She was exceedingly nervous, and her voice trembled when she swore to tell the truth. There was a malignant expression on the face of the counsel for the prisoner when he asked the witness: "'Do you know Mary Peterkin?' "'I do,' was the reply. "'She is the niece of the murdered man?' "'She is,' replied the woman in a whisper. "'You once lived with the dead man and his niece?' "'I did." Miss Cordelia Moore, of Malone, N.Y., until recently, has been a life-long invalid from palpitation of the heart and weakness of the blood. Physicians were puzzled over her case, their most skillful efforts were baffled. Various remedies were tried without avail. The proverbial "change of climate" was advised, but the constant change wore upon her until, to quote her mother's words, "she became a living ghost." Miss Moore said: "Upon advice of a friend I began taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People and before the first box was used I noticed a great change. I began to regain my appetite and felt better generally. After finishing the first box I took six more. The effect was wonderful. I grew strong and gained in flesh. I never felt better in my life than I do now. I weigh more than ever before and I consider myself cured." From the Gazette, Malone, N.Y.

Finally the judge said, 'Do you appreciate your position—that I can pass sentence of death on you!' 'I do,' replied the prisoner, with a defiant look at his counsel, 'but I would like to say a few words.' 'Proceed, sir,' said Judge Blank. "I committed the crime, your honor, but not from desire for gain. It was done in a moment of anger, just anger, and for the sake of my dear old mother. Years ago my mother, so that she might pay some debts I contracted while in college, mortgaged her farm—the home where she was born, the home that she went to as a happy wife, the home where I was born—to old Peterkin. Each year since then she paid to him usurious interest. Finally there came a day when he would not renew the mortgage. That was the day I killed him. I pleaded with him, but in vain. He insisted he would foreclose the mortgage. He called my mother a vile name. I saw the revolver on his desk, picked it up and aimed at him. He wheeled around in his chair toward his desk, and the bullet entered his back. While he was telling this story the prisoner several times pressed his hand to his left side and moaned as if in pain. 'Have you anything else to say?' asked Judge Blank. 'Yes; I want to say,' explained the prisoner in gasping tones, 'that after I had retained that lawyer—pointing to Horace Dash—'I told him I was guilty; that I wanted to plead guilty. He forbade my doing so. Said it was a splendid case. He would acquit me and cover himself with glory. He said he would ask no fee. I urged that I was guilty, but he said he could clear me. I consented to the plea of not guilty.' Again the prisoner placed his hand to his heart and with an effort said: 'I could not save my life at the expense of an innocent person, and that person a woman. I am guilty.' He sank back into a chair, and Judge Blank turned to Horace Dash, the prisoner's counsel, and asked: 'What have you to say for yourself?' 'I did my duty—my plain duty,' said the lawyer. 'As I understand it, it is a lawyer's duty to defend his client and to acquit him as best he can—' 'Not at the expense of an innocent person,' remarked Judge Blank. 'I maintain it is:' replied the lawyer. 'Although a prisoner may confess guilt, he may be innocent. He might be insane when he confessed.

Down this hole the stream pours and is lost forever. By means of ropes and weights the sink hole has been sounded to a depth of 400 feet, and still the bottom has not been reached. The room is surrounded by a narrow ledge of rock, on which daring explorers have made a complete circuit. One step off the ledge upon the slippery floor would mean almost instant death in the bottomless pit. Consumption and Fresh Air. It is a matter of common knowledge says an English exchange, that the late Sir Andrew Clarke cured himself of consumption by living as much as possible in the open air. The principle involved has since been generally recognized by the medical profession, with the result that the old bad practice of keeping consumptives in warm, stuffy rooms has been almost entirely abandoned. It is fresh air which is mainly responsible for the cures worked at such places as Davos, where the patients spend 14 hours a day out of doors, breathing cold, bracing mountain air, while they are exhilarated by bright sunshine. The result is that each diseased spot in the lungs is cut off from the healthy tissue by a ring of stretched cells, across which disease germs cannot pass, and so the malady is arrested until the strengthened body can overcome it.

In addition, ten annual native Calican species have been under cultition in the Botanic Garden at Berkefor seven years; only two of these, forever, Lupinus affinis and L. micransis, promise to be of any agricultural use. Species Recommended for Greennurting in California.—For heavy, longly calcareous soils in middle Calinia, such as the adobe lands, the Lupin (L. pilosus roseus) and the Large Blue Lupin (L. pilosus caeruleus) much the best of the various species and at Berkeley. Though the seeds of these two species are few to a pod, grey and heavy, and are therefore are expensive than those of any of other species tried, an equal weight seed will produce a larger amount of en material than in the case of others. For the Chino Valley, Mr. Bell considers the Small Blue Lupin (angustifolius caeruleus) to be preveniently the best species, if the ravings of root-rot can be successfully locked. For the light, non-calcareous soils, Yellow Lupin (L. luteus sativus) hold undoubtedly the most satistory, as it is so much less woody on any of the other species, and rots much more quickly and thoroughly. Cultivation.—The success or failure European Lupins depends almost enly upon sowing sufficiently early to catch the first rains, and at a time when the soil is yet warm enough to stimulate germination and prevent the setting of the seed. If sown the last of September the Pink and Large Blue lupins are ready to plow under by the first of February, and the Yellow by the middle of March. In Germany, where a crop of rye normally succeeds lupin, it has been cusnary to allow about fourteen days to lapse between plowing in the lupin and sowing the new crop, in order to show the former to rot. Von Wuffen sends, however, that this is not necesry, and in France it is customary to now immediately after plowing. Von Wuaffen states that the green crop can plowed under either just before, spring or after flowering. IS IT RIGHT or an Editor to Recommend Patent Medicines? From Sylvan Valley News, Brevrad, N.C.

From Syllan Valley News, Brevrad, N.C. It may be a question whether the editor of a newspaper has the right to publicly recommend any of the various proprietary medicines which flood the market, yet as a preventive of suffering he feel it a duty to say a good word for Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy. We have known and used this medicine in our family for 20 years and have always found it reliable. In many cases a dose of this remedy would save hours of suffering while a physician is awaited. We do not believe in implicating only on any medicine for a cure, but we do believe that if a bottle of Chamberlain's Diarrhea Remedy were kept on hand and administered at the inception of an attack much suffering might be avoided and in very many cases the presence of physician would not be required. At last this has been our experience during the last twenty years. For sale by A. Derge. L'ENVOI The smoke upon your altar dies. The flowers decay. The goddess of your sacrifice Has flown away.

In case of fire, if the burning articles are at once splashed and sprayed with solution of salt and nitrate of ammonia an incombustible coating is formed. This is a preparation which can be made at home at a trifling cost and should be kept on hand. Dissolve 10 pounds of common salt and ten pounds of nitrate of ammonia in seven gallons of water. Pour this into quart bottles of thin glass and fire grenades are at hand ready for use. These bottles must be tightly corked and sealed to prevent evaporation, and in case of fire they must be thrown near the flames, so as to break and liberate the gas contained. At least two dozen of these bottles should be ready for an emergency. In this connection it is well to remember that water on burning oil scatters the flame, but that flour will exinguish it. Salt thrown upon a fire if the chimney is burning will help to deaden the blaze. If a fire once gets under headway and prompt exit becomes a necessity, a silk handkerchief dipped in water and wrapped about the mouth and nostrils will prevent suffocation from smoke; failing this, a piece PACIFIC COAST Steamship Co.

One day when he was on board a Rhine steamboat he noticed a lady evidently in great distress trying by signs to explain to the officials some matter of importance. Fancying that she was a countrywoman of his own he asked: "Do you speak English?" In this connection it is well to remember that water on burning oil scatters the flame, but that flour will exinguish it. Salt thrown upon a fire if the chimney is burning will help to leaden the blaze. If a fire once gets under headway and prompt exit becomes a necessity, a silk handkerchief dipped in water and wrapped about the mouth and nostrils will prevent suffocation from smoke; failing this, a piece of wet flannel will answer. Should smoke fill the room, recall your physics—remember that smoke goes first to the top of the room and last to the floor. Wrap a blanket or woolen garment about you, with the wet cloth over your face, drop on your hands and knees and crawl to the window. Bear in mind that there is no more danger in getting down from a three story window than from the first floor if you keep a firm hold of the rope or ladder.

One day when he was on board a Rhine steamboat he noticed a lady, evidently in great distress, trying by signs to explain to the officials some matter of importance. Fancying that she was a countrywoman of his own, he asked: "Do you speak English?" The poor lady had really lost her head, and she could only stammer out, "Unlal!"—that is, a little. Then Lord Bramwell continued the conversation in French, but it became evident that the lady understood scarcely a word. German and Italian gave equally bad results. Finally she muttered audibly to herself: "How I wish I were safe at home!" "But surely you do speak English!" exclaimed the baron. "I can't speak anything else," she sobbed.
