The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. HENRY KUCHEL, Editor and Proprietor. THURSDAY... SEPTEMBER 13, 1900. The Postoffice Department at Washington has authorized the formation of three routes of rural free delivery at this point, to begin Sept. 15th. Simultaneously therewith the postoffices at Clair, Olive and Yorba will be discontinued. The policy of the government in matters of this kind has been to discontinue the smaller postoffices, and supply the people in rural communities with a free delivery of their mails. The success of the system has been amply demonstrated, in the East as well as in California, where already a number of routes have been established—notably in Santa Clara and Santa Cruz counties. The free delivery of mail to the rural classes is being made one of the features of President McKinley's administration. While the inhabitants of the cities (a large proportion of whom are non-taxpayers) have had their mails delivered free for generations, those in the country have never yet had accorded to them this privilege. The large proportion of these latter are taxpayers: They have had to support free delivery in cities, while not until the present time have they been similarly favored by the government. Rural free delivery seeks in part to even up things between the people in cities and those in the country. The many advantages of rural free delivery have already been dwelt upon. The system brings the farmer closer in touch with the great outside world; it gives him, besides the news of the time, the advantages of daily market reports; it provides reading not only for himself, but for the family at home during the long winter evenings, tending thus to elevate and improve their was 4 1-10 per cent. It also got the advantage of the advance which the brokers made over the association price, and in one instance sold a car of No. 1 softshell walnuts at $10.20 per 100 lbs f. o. b. Anaheim. These advantages of advanced prices and cheapness of doing business allowed the local association to pay the growers $8.23 per 100 lbs for No. 1 softshell walnuts. Payment to the grower is made promptly, as all walnuts are sold cash f. o. b. cars, and no risks of collection are taken. MRS. HANNAH EDELMAN of Orange, the wife of Charley Edelman, now of San Francisco, but who flourished in Orange county two or three years ago as a "staked-out" aspirant for the Democratic nomination for State Treasurer, has brought suit against him for divorce on the grounds of cruelty and willful desertion. Edelman was the ablest politician who ever rose in an Orange county convention, and although he was fought by the old-time Santa Ana Democrats, he won his fight out handily in the Democratic county convention of two years ago. He secured the endorsement of the convention for nomination as State Treasurer, while Uncle Dan'l Baker had to content himself with an indorsement for an office which the party had not in its giving—that of the Lieutenant-Governorship, which in the fusion program was slated to the Populists. Thus did Edelman hand Baker a large-sized gold brick, the beauties of which Baker probably did not discover until some weeks thereafter. It has become the fashion at Santa Ana of late to berate Edelman, but during the period in which he was "staked out" in this county he made it interesting for his party associates, and generally got what he went after. Now that he has been sued for divorce, these criticisms of him reappear. Give the devil his due. Edelman came from San Fran- WHY WE SHOULD KEEP PHILIPPINES. The San Francisco Examiner Rescue of President McKinley the Republican Policy. The splendid editorial reproduced full below was published in the Francisco Examiner of Tuesday, September 8, 1898. It unequivocally justified Republican contention with respect to Philippine policy of President Kinley and the Republican party fully replies to every argument vanced by the forces of Bryan opposition to that policy. Don reading a line of it, and when you some champion of the Examiners ing against Republican impress this on him. His face will give his mouth leave to speak. "Why should we take and keep Philippines, ask the little America who fear to look outside the conspiracy Why should we spend money and port an army and navy to insure peace and industry of island thousands miles away? Come from those who think the nickel hand better than the dollar in venturesome trade. Why should our politics to the adders of the corruption that hwhelmed Spain by adding color our responsibilities? Asks the publicist who is always fearing stability of our institutions. Well, we should keep the government. Rural free delivery seeks in part to even up things between the people in cities and those in the country. The many advantages of rural free delivery have already been dwelt upon. The system brings the farmer closer in touch with the great outside world; it gives him, besides the news of the time, the advantages of daily market reports; it provides reading not only for himself, but for the family at home during the long winter evenings, tending thus to elevate and improve their minds; it tends to the construction of good roads, improves the value of rural property, and holds out an inducement to the homeseeker. The convenience of the system will save the farmer many times the price of the service. The only charge is the payment of $3.50 for a suitable mail box, placed upon a substantial post at a point convenient to the subscriber. Mails are delivered and taken up free. One delivery and one collection of mail is made daily, except Sunday. Subscribers to the service are not debarred the privileges of the post-office. In fact many subscribers to rural free delivery will retain their boxes at the postoffice. For instance, should a subscriber looking for a letter fail to receive it from the carrier, he may come in to the postoffice and procure it on a later mail. All patrons of the postoffices to be discontinued should thoroughly inform themselves upon this new system of mail delivery to the end that no miscarriage of their mail may result. The Postoffice Department has ordered the free delivery of mail on the three routes to begin Sept. 15, which will be next Saturday. All the necessary preliminaries are being attended to, and it is the purpose of the postoffice officials and the carriers to follow the instructions of the Department at Washington to the letter. The boxes will probably not be all placed by Saturday, but there is no reason why many of them should not be. At any rate the free delivery of mail will begin, in compliance with instructions received from Washington, on Saturday next. WALNUT PRICES. The local walnut association has completed its arrangements for handling the present crop, and with its past experience looks forward to a successful season. Walnut buyers are abroad trying to convince growers that they will pay better prices than the associations, but they neglect to state that if it was not for the associations they would not pay anything near the prices they will offer now. Thus did Edelman hand Baker a large-sized gold brick, the beauties of which Baker probably did not discover until some weeks thereafter. It has become the fashion at Santa Ana of late to berate Edelman, but during the period in which he was "staked out" in this county he made it interesting for his party associates, and generally got what he went after. Now that he has been sued for divorce, these criticisms of him reappear. Give the devil his due. Edelman came from San Francisco for no other reason than to stand for the State Treasurership. He was an active partisan at that time of Jim Maguire. While many of the Democrats of Orange county were talking of the availability of Budd for renomination, Edelman was the first to say that Budd was out of the fight, and that Maguire would be the nominee. Edelman had been defeated by Castro by a narrow margin in the Democratic State convention for the nomination for State Treasurer four years before, and came south as an avowed aspirant a second time for the nomination. He had behind him the active support of Maguire, and that portion of the wing of the San Francisco Democracy favorable to that aspirant for the Governorship. He failed of nomination, although he put up a gallant fight for it. But the difference between him and Baker is this: While Edelman gained the endorsement of the Orange county Democrats for an office in its giving, Baker was endorsed for one which the party had nothing to do with. The last we heard of Edelman he was "staked out" in San Francisco accumulating more gold bricks. Took a Costly snap. To begin with he's "a good fellow." That's a phrase easier understood by men than by women. It generally means—well, it means he's an all round good sort in the male line. Saturday afternoon he was feeling pretty good. He had been quite thirsty if what he had taken was to be judged as a criterion. And the libations left him in a thoroughly good humor, and felt at peace with the world. In this delightful mental and physical state he bethought him of a friend of his in Providence, and he further thought that he would call up that particular friend on the telephone. So he went to a Broad street hotel, told the young woman there who had charge of the telephone that he wanted to speak to Mr. So-and-so in Providence and wouldn't she kindly call up the party. The girl did as she was bade. "Party's on the 'phone," she said, and the man went into the telephone box, sat down and put the receiver to his ear. And then he calmly and sweetly dropped off to sleep. When he woke up, he owed the telephone company $32.90. Why should we take and keep Philippines, ask the little America who fear to look outside the country? Why should we spend money on port an army and navy to insure peace and industry of islands thousand miles away? Comes from those who think the nickel hand better than the dollar in venturesome trade. Why should our politics to the adders of the corruption that hurlmed Spain by adding color our responsibilities? Asks the publicist who is always fearing stability of our institutions. Well, we should keep their pines— Because we have annihilated power in that quarter of the globe the responsibility for their order cannot be escaped, except of honor. Because to turn them back we would put them under a power we know to be cruel and impractical turn them over to one of the B powers would make all the rest mises, and probably involve our war to keep them; to leave themselves would be to conquer land to anarchy. Because it would pay. Because the land is one of richness, and needs only intelligence of modern methods to enormously productive. Because the barbarous Spanish has kept down the trade of elation people so that their impulse is valued at about $10,000,000 and their export trade at higher than $20,000,000—scarcely above little Hawaii, which we have nexed. Because we need markets manufactures outside of our country which is now unable to furnishment to all its people. Because it will give us a position to contend for the trade Orient. Because the commerce of this is ready for the greatest development history, and if it is turned at San Francisco, in the position that bulk of the traffic between est continent and the oldest come one of the largest cities world. Our responsibilities for this moment of the island have continued without incurring the reproach humanity as great as that we punish and overthrow. The restricted trade and profitable for those who engage at the touch of the American production they will return gift to country. As for the army and navy to protect them be no burden. Such troops attain in the islands will be able to islands' revenues, on which will be a proper charge. For we are going to have a big how, and it will not have toiger for the possession of these pines. Our navy will have enough to sweep the enemy and if it can do that, it can Philippines as well as Hawaii as well as San Francisco. Of course we shall not o such folly as to draw tributi islands by taxation, but we WALNUT PRICES. The local walnut association has completed its arrangements for handling the present crop, and with its past experience looks forward to a successful season. Walnut buyers are abroad trying to convince growers that they will pay better prices than the associations, but they neglect to state that if it was not for the associations they would not pay anything near the prices they will offer now. Growers should not overlook this fact, and those who have not joined with a growers' association should do so without delay, as it is only by this method that anything like a living price can be maintained for walnuts. It occasionally happens that a buyer who is short a small quantity to fill an order will pay a fancy price for a limited quantity of nuts. When this is done he does not fail to mention it next year, and does it in such a way as to lead people to believe that he paid the top price for all the walnuts he bought. The manufacturing interests and all the large producing interests in the country are united to maintain prices, while the farmers and fruit growers to a large extent are not unaided, and consequently do not get the returns from their labor which they should. The product of the local association was marketed by the Southern California Deciduous Fruit Exchange last year at prices which were much better than the average price obtained from other sources. The opening price of walnuts outside of the association was about 71 cents per lb for No. 1 softshells, and a price of $8.15 per 100 lbs was fixed by the associated growers. From this there was a deduction of 6 per cent for selling, and the charges for bleaching and grading, which made the association price and outside price about the same. The Deciduous Fruit Association of Anaheim paid the Southern California Deciduous Fruit Exchange only the actual cost of selling, which thought that he would call up that particular friend on the telephone. So he went to a Broad street hotel, told the young woman there who had charge of the telephone that he wanted to speak to Mr. So-and-so in Providence and wouldn't she kindly call up the party. The girl did as she was bade. "Party's on the 'phone," she said, and the man went into the telephone box, sat down and put the receiver to his ear. And then he calmly and sweetly dropped off to sleep. When he woke up, he owed the telephone company $32.90. He said he wouldn't pay it, but he did.—Philadelphia Press. Why He Bought Wholesale. The slender stranger had just bought a dollar's worth of "L" tickets and was folding them when the man from Harlem asked: "Why?" It is so seldom that a New Yorker asks a reason for anything that the slim stranger explained. "Because one ticket seller in the L' is a sleight of hand artist," said he. "I offered a $5 bill in payment for a single ticket a few weeks ago and ought to have received $4.95 in change. I counted it twice and could make out but $4.70. I pushed it back to the ticket man, and he at once pushed it back to me, gruffly saying, 'Can't you count?' and as he said it I saw a quarter fall into the pile of change from the palm that pushed it. I retorted, 'It's all right now,' and pocketed the money without recounting it. He saw that I had observed the trick, and the look he gave me would have made me feel weak if I had not been through the same experience shortly before at the same window. "Since then I have bought my tickets by the dollar's worth, as it is easy to count change in even dollars and puts less temptation in the way of the ticket man."—New York Mall and Express. Wouldn't Blacken His Boots. It would be superfluous to praise the hospitality of American private houses, but it was impossible not to see how much of it is hampered and curtailed by difficulties of service, of which all my hosts complained. I hardly ever ventured to ask for hot water in dressing or to utter an actual request that my boots should be cleaned. My plan was to place them outside my door, as at a hotel, and I generally found that, if not blacked, they had been rubbed over before the next morning. Of all the Bryanjustic bog campaign none except the perialism will see harder that bad bogy bank man with the "money power." It may be observed in with millions of money seized in government security the locks of that Sumner pretty effectually shorn. One of the reasons why circulation is needful is that armament has no adequate rating the currency it issues in nels of trade where needed government may borrow i GRAND FORMAL OPENING WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 19, 1900.

REINHAUS BROS., BIG DEPARTMENT STORE, SANTA ANA BY WE SHOULD KEEP THE PHILIPPINES. San Francisco Examiner to the Rescue of President McKinley and the Republican Policy. The splendid editorial reproduced in below was published in the San Francisco Examiner of Tuesday, August 1898. It unequivocally justifies every public contention with regard to Philippine policy of President McKinley and the Republican party and as replies to every argument advanced by the forces of Bryanism in position to that policy. Don't miss adding a line of it, and when you find the champion of the Examiner shout against Republican imperialism now this on him. His face will not have his mouth leave to speak. Why should we take and keep the Philippines, ask the little Americans," no fear to look outside the continent? Why should we spend money and support an army and navy to insure the peace and industry of islands seven thousand miles away? Comes the cry from those who think the nickel in the land better than the dollar in someaturesome trade. Why should we object our politics to the added dangers of the corruption that has overwhelmed Spain by adding colonies to our responsibilities? Asks the timid publicist who is always fearing for the stability of our institutions. Well, we should keep the Philip- and what it pays out for services rendered comes back in taxes levied, and it has no means of adjusting the volume of currency to the requirements of trade. A bank note circulation adjusts itself automatically to the requirements of trade, is taken out when wanted by borrowers and brought back when not required by repaying the bank. It therefore needfully supplements the government currency and the use of metallic money and to deprive the people of that form of reinforcement to their circulating medium as Mr. Bryan's party has pledged itself to do would be to seriously impair the efficiency of the circulating medium of the nation. A bank note circulation under a rigid system of inspection and control on the part of the national government, having had more than a generation of crucial test to justify its continuance, has been continued and improved by the Republican party and the party now appeals to the intelligence of men, and not to their passions, in justification of this policy. It is not true as the Bryan organizations falsely claim in their platforms that the Republican party has surrendered to the national banks any part of the authority of the government to issue currency. The sovereign power of government may be exerted either directly or through a delegated medium acting under the REPUBLICAN TICKET AND PLATFORM. The following is the Republican electoral ticket to be voted for at the coming election together with the excellent platform upon which California Republicans are to stand: ELECTORS AT LARGE: Samuel M. Shortridge of San Francisco. William J. Barrett of Los Angeles. ELECTORS: J. W. Ryan of Humboldt. Harold T. Power of Placer. William R. Davis of Alameda. C. B. Bodie of San Francisco. Frank McGowan of San Francisco. Warren R. Porter of Santa Cruz. James McFadden of Orange. The Republican party of California, by its convention, heartily indorses the platform adopted by the Republican national convention at Philadelphia as enunciating declaration of principles the wisdom of which has been demonstrated by the successful home and foreign policy of the present administration, and which, under continued Republican control, promises a national future even more brilliant in achievement than the past. We pledge our loyal support to that wise and upright statesman, William McKinley, who, amid new and perplexing problems, has constantly pursued a policy which has made him very exemplification of the highest type of American statesmanship, and earned for him and the country that he loves and serves world-wide respect and honor.

Comes the cry from those who think the nickel in the land better than the dollar in some picturesome trade. Why should we object our politics to the added dangers of the corruption that has overlapped Spain by adding colonies to our responsibilities? Asks the timid publicist who is always fearing for the stability of our institutions. Well, we should keep the Philippines— Because we have annihilated Spain's power in that quarter of the globe, and the responsibility for their peace and order cannot be escaped, except by loss of honor. Because to turn them back to Spain would put them under a power which we know to be cruel and impotent; to turn them over to one of the European powers would make all the rest our enemies, and probably involve our friends war to keep them; to leave them to themselves would be to condemn the land to anarchy. Because it would pay. Because the land is one of immense richness, and needs only intelligent application of modern methods to make it enormously productive. Because the barbarous Spanish policy kept down the trade of eight million people so that their import trade was valued at about $10,000,000 a year, and their export trade at hardly more than $20,000,000—scarcely above that of little Hawaii, which we have just annexed. Because we need markets for our manufactures outside of our own land, which is now unable to furnish employment to all its people. Because it will give us a favorable position to contend for the trade of the Orient. Because the commerce of the Pacific is ready for the greatest development in history, and if it is turned this way, San Francisco, in the position to secure the bulk of the traffic between the newest continent and the oldest, will become one of the largest cities in the world. Our responsibilities for the government of the island have come to us, and we can not shake lightly off without incurring the reproach of humanity as great as that we set out to punish and overthrow. The restricted trade and production of the islands are even now highly profitable for those who engage in them. At the touch of the American genius of production they will return great profits to the country. As for the cost of the army and navy to protect them, it will be no burden. Such troops as we maintain in the islands will be paid out of the islands' revenues, on which they will be a proper charge. For the navy, we are going to have a big navy anyhow, and it will not have to be any bigger for the possession of the Philippines. Our navy will have to be strong enough to sweep the enemy off the sea, and if it can do that, it can protect the Philippines as well as Hawaii, and Hawaii as well as San Francisco. Of course we shall not commit any folly as to draw tribute from the islands by taxation, but we shall draw realism which will test to justify its continuance, has been continued and improved by the Republican party and the party now appeals to the intelligence of men, and not to their passions, in justification of this policy. It is not true as the Bryan organizations falsely claim in their platforms that the Republican party has surrendered to the national banks any part of the authority of the government to issue currency. The sovereign power of government may be exerted either directly or through a delegated medium acting under the supervision of the executive administration. The state may build roads or it may authorize toll roads to be built. Just in the same way the government may issue a currency or it may commission a bank to issue such currency under its supervision. The national bank issues a supplemental currency under the supervision of the government and because that is the most effective way of getting a part of the currency into the channels of trade, but congress may at any time limit the national banking issues of currency. Our government has not abdicated any part of its sovereignty to the banks, but has merely chosen these banks as agencies for the government. That old superstition of financial ranters that banks, with malice aforethought, combine and conspire to produce monetary panics by contracting and expanding the currency is the biggest bogy of them all. The banks are first to suffer and about the last to recover from panies and are never so content as when business is prosperous, the currency stable, credit unimpaired and the people contented. There may not be much in this view of the Bad Bogy Bank Man to comfort those who love to feed on the fiction of demoniacal possession of the "money power," as exemplified in our excellent national banking system, but it is the plain truth and it is by plain and truthful appeals to the reasoning powers of rational men that the Republican party seeks justification for its policies and justification for the men chosen to carry out those policies. REGISTER! REGISTER! Registration closes throughout State of California September 26. The man who does not register by that date will lose his vote in the coming election. There are over 300,000 voters in State of California who may express their political sentiments at the polls if they comply with the law and register. California was carried for McKinley in 1896 by only 1987 votes. If two Republicans in the hundred had remained at home or neglected to qualify the Republicans would have been beaten in this state. We want no such chances taken this year. You think: "Well, now, I must go and register," but you don't. The first platform adopted by the Republican national convention at Philadelphia enunciating declaration of principles the wisdom of which has been demonstrated by the successful home and foreign policy of the present administration, and which, under continued Republican control, promises a national future even more brilliant in achievement than the past. We pledge our loyal support to that wise and upright statesman William McKinley, who, amid new and perplexing problems, has constantly pursued a policy which has made him very exemplification of the highest type of American statesmanship, and earned him and the country that he loves and serves world-wide respect and honor. With such a leader, associated with that typical young American, Theodore Roosvelt, whose courage in war and brilliant political record in peace have given him a place in the hearts of our people, we may well look forward to glorious victory in November and continued national prosperity during ensuing four years. We indorse and approve the able, fearless and economical manner in which the state government has been conducted by our governor, Henry T. Gage, and commend our senators and representatives in congress for the faithful performance of their trusts. We recognize the importance to this coast and to the country of the construction of the Nicaragua canal under government ownership and control, and pledge our party's earners and continued efforts to secure the early commencement and completion of the work. We favor conservation of all available waters for the seclusion and irrigation of arid lands; and liberal appropriations by congress for that purpose, supplemented by the co-operation of the states directly interested. Such policy to be initiated by the collaboration of the federal and state governments in a thorough investigation of our water supply and best methods of utilizing the same. We indorse the action that has been taken to secure as a permanent possession tothe whole people she great forests situated in our mountain ranges, and earnestly recommend that our senators and representatives in congress support by their votes and influence the establishment of national reservations, in order that these forests may be saved from destruction and our water supply preserved. We favor such legislation as will prevent the acquisition of lands chiefly valuable for petroleum; as plaintum and other minerals under the cruise of lion hand and forest reserve exchange selections, and we request our senators and representatives in congress to use all honorable means to present fraud in that way and secure such legislation as will protect the minors of life from oppression and blackmail.

As for doubts for our ability to rule colonies wisely and justly, we are in government the heirs of the English, who have solved the problem to perfection. We can do as well as they, and if we can not construct a system we can borrow it. The Philippines are under our hands to dispose of. Let us keep them until we are certain that there is some better way to secure the happiness of their people and our own." Could there be a better justification of Republican policy than that afforded in the foregoing by the Examiner? And why is it now shouting "imperialism," with the rest of the Bryan shouters? Simply because the exigencies of office hunting make the bogy of imperialism the only hope of Democratic success. The heart of the Examiner is not in that work and the wires will hardly have cooled after bringing the tidings of Bryan's defeat in November when the Examiner will again hoist to its masthead the banner of expansion and tell the Bryanites "We told you so." THAT BAD BOGY BANK MAN. Of all the Bryanistic bogies of a bogy campaign none except the bogy of imperialism will see harder service than that bad bogy bank man who represents the "money power." It may be observed in passing that with millions of money seeking investment in government securities at 2 per cent the locks of that Samson have been pretty effectually shorn. One of the reasons why a bank note circulation is needful is that the government has no adequate means of getting the currency it issues into the channels of trade where needed. While the government may borrow it never lends There are over 300,000 voters in the State of California who may express their political sentiments at the polls if they comply with the law and register. California was carried for McKinley in 1896 by only 1987 votes. If two Republicans in the hundred had remained at home or neglected to qualify the Republicans would have been beaten in this state. We want no such chances taken this year. You think: "Well, now, I must go and register," but you don't. The first thing you know the 26th of September will pass by and then you can't. You will feel sorry but your feeling sorry will not help McKinley and Roosvelt to carry the election. Better have your sorry spell now, repent and go and register. It only takes just so long, is not much of a job anyhow and is a part of your duty as a citizen. Suffrage is an obligation as well as a privilege. The Republican party expects every Republican to do his duty. A TON OF ORATORY. Speaking at Chicago on Labor day, from the same platform with Mr. Bryan, Governor Roosvelt said: "When we come to dealing with our social and industrial needs, remedies, rights and wrongs, a ton of oratory is not worth an ounce of hard-headed, kindly common sense. The fundamental law of healthy political life in this great republic is that each man shall in deed and not merely in word be treated strictly on his worth as a man; that each shall do full justice to his fellow and in return shall exact full justice from him." And immediately, nothing daunted, Mr. Bryan followed with a ton of oratory. Man and His Mother-in-law. Much has been written about the mother-in-law. nearly all of it in complaining jest. In all of the flippant literature on this subject there is only one point worthy of consideration—that the writers, almost invariably men, have never tried to vell their insincerity. This is a tribute from man, even in his most playful moods, to the substantial worth of his mother-in-law. New York Sun. THOMAS JEFFERSON AND JOHN BULL. At a time when a pretended Democracy is periodically plunging itself into paroxysms of Anglo-phobia it is refreshing to stumble across a common sense Democrat who takes a common sense view of Anglo-American relations. Thomas Jefferson was a common sense Democrat, with a native inclination toward French disquisition on things politic and economic, but his patriotism so surpassed his favoritism that he did not permit his French inclinations to obscure his good judgment or put him in an attitude of hostility to Great Britain. In a letter to President Monroe, dated October 24, 1823, he wrote: "Great Britain is the nation which can do us the most harm of any one or all on earth, and with her on our side we need not Wanted to Change the Subject.

HARRIS AND FALKENSTEIN CASH DEPARTMENT STORE Metropolitan Block, Anaheim, Cal. Burying a Spanish King. Strange and almost weird is the ceremonial which accompanies the burial of Spanish kings. The pantheon, or royal tomb, is at the palace of the Escurial, situated 3,000 feet above the level of the sea and some distance from the capital. Only kings, queens and mothers of kings are buried there, the coffins of the kings lying on one side, those of the queens on the other. After lying in state for several days in the throneroom in Madrid an enormous procession is formed, accompanying the body to the Escurial. A halt is made on the way, and the corpse got to Be an Old Story. Over 20 years ago an American civil engineer, who visited Cabecera, in Venezuela, was asked by a deputation of the inhabitants, who had heard of his skill as a surveyor, whether he thought a canal could be made from their village to Provecue, which would save a very long river journey. He visited the district and found that by taking advantage of two small streams a canal of about a league would be all that was necessary. The committee were delighted with this report, and they begged the surveyor to write an official letter to the MONEY SENT WITHOUT DANGER OF LOSS. ABSOLUTELY SAFE.

Strange and almost weird is the ceremonial which accompanies the burial of Spanish kings. The pantheon, or royal tomb, is at the palace of the Escurial, situated 3,000 feet above the level of the sea and some distance from the capital. Only kings, queens and mothers of kings are buried there, the coffins of the kings lying on one side, those of the queens on the other. After lying in state for several days in the throneroom in Madrid an enormous procession is formed, accompanying the body to the Escurial. A halt is made on the way, and the corpse rests there for one night. In the morning the lord high chamberlain stands at the side of the coffin and says in loud tones, "Is your majesty pleased to proceed on your journey?" After a short silence the procession moves on and winds up to the grand portal of the palace. These doors are never opened except to admit a royal personage, dead or alive. When the casket containing the remains is at last placed in the vault, the chamberlain unlocks it and kneeling down, calls with a loud voice: "Senor! Senor! Senor!" After a solemn pause he cries again: "His majesty does not reply. Then it is true, the king is dead!" He then locks the coffin, gives the key to the prior and, taking his staff of office, breaks it in pieces and flings them at the casket. The booming of the guns and the tolling of bells announces to the nation that the king has gone to his final resting place. A Specialist. A few days ago a well known Washington lady, being unexpectedly bereft of her kitchen assistance, advertised for a colored woman capable of performing general housework. The first caller in response to the advertisement was a mulatto damsel, decked with ribbon and finery. From her airs and graces she might have been a graduate of a seminary. She announced that she had noticed the advertisement and was desirous of securing employment. "Are you a good cook?" inquired the lady of the house. "No, indeed, I don't cook," was the reply. "Are you a good washer and ironer?" was the next query. "I wouldn't do washing and ironing; it's too hard on the hands," declared the caller. "Can you sweep?" the housewife then wanted to know. "No," was the answer, and it was a positive one. "I'm not strong enough for that." "Well, in the name of goodness, what can you do?" said the lady of the house, exasperated. The placid reply was: "I dusts."—Washington Star. Negro Eloquence. Negroes sometimes express themselves as felicitously as do the Irish. Here is a case copied from a Texas paper. Some time ago one of Texas' widely known statesmen, who is now dead, was passing along a street in Dallas, when an old colored man, who had once belonged to him, approached, took off his hat and passed a hand over his white wool as he asked: "Marster, gin de old man 50 cents." Got to Be an Old Story. Over 20 years ago an American civil engineer, who visited Cabecera, in Venezuela, was asked by a deputation of the inhabitants, who had heard of his skill as a surveyor, whether he thought a canal could be made from their village to Provecue, which would save a very long river journey. He visited the district and found that by taking advantage of two small streams a canal of about a league would be all that was necessary. The committee were delighted with this report, and they begged the surveyor to write an official letter to the government on their behalf, asking that they might be permitted to begin the work at once. Ten years after this the surveyor was again at the village of Cabecera, and the first question asked him was: "Do you not think a canal could be made from here to Provecue?" On his informing them that he had been asked the same question ten years before and had taken some time and trouble about the matter, the chairman replied that on account of politics, the death of his father, etc., the government letter had probably been overlooked. Search was made, the letter was found and once more all was excitement. Nothing was talked about but the canal. Some years later yet the surveyor was again at Cabecera. Immediately on his arrival a deputation waited upon him. "Do you think a canal"—The speaker never got any further with that question—Youth's Companion.
