The new century's opening days are destined to furnish a good many tributes to the skill and resources of the United States in the general business field. The London Times having American competition in view, sounds a note of warning to England. "It is useless to disguise the fact that Great Britain is being outdistanced," it declares. "The competition does not come from the glut caused by miscalculation as to the home demand. Our own steelmakers know better, and are alarmed. The threatened competition in markets hitherto our own comes from efficiency in production such as never before has been seen." "There are only two great countries from which we have anything seriously to fear," says a British industrial expert, writing a series of articles in the London Mail, "and these are the United States and Germany, and I place them in their relative order of importance in this respect." This is testimony to the superiority of the United States in the industrial field which is significant. It was presumably known to the writers of the two expressions quoted that the United States in 1900 had gone ahead of the United Kingdom in the aggregate of its exports of all sorts. It was undoubtedly known, too, to both of them that the exports of manufactures of the United States are growing faster than those of agricultural products and the raw material of manufactures. What makes this circumstance of portentous consequence to an old industrial country like England is that the gain in the United States has been greater in the past two or three years than it was before. It prompts which the water company appealed. The Supreme Court goes at great length into the question of the power of councils and boards of trustees to transfer funds, upholding that right and power, and with that respect to the payment of demands on exhausted funds, holds that at the end of the fiscal year, should there be any money in the treasury, the demand originally drawn upon those funds shall be paid from the total balance of that fiscal year. It was shown that there was a surplus over all during the years of the life of the lease, and the water company can in this way secure its demand against the city. Mr. Blennnerhassett, who retires from the secretaryship of the water board on the 1st prox., has held the office for seven years past. We cannot permit the incident to past without making public acknowledgement of the many courtesies for which we are under obligation to him. We have found him ever obliging, and ready at all times to impart such information from the documents in his office as the public were entitled to receive. The position is one difficult to fill, but the outgoing official has filled it acceptably to the shareholders. His minute books are models of neatness, and he has conducted the correspondence of the office, during the years of his incumbency, with an efficiency that has added to his worth. He turns over the books and accounts of the office without the loss of a single penny. His many friends will note with regret his determination not to stand again for the office. In expectation of a visit from President McKinley in May the municipalities of the State are already arranging for his entertainment. Proper action has been taken by the Legislature to provide for such official recognition of the visit as the dignity of the State and of SHERWOOD ASKS QUESTION. Wants to Know About the Purchase of Durkee Ranch, and those 1000 Inches of Water. EDITOR GAZETTE:—After reading list of my crimes in Mr. Armor latest elucidations, my first imprint was to take to the brush; but have a few more questions to him, have decided to stay and chances. Mr. Armor is not the first person to pick up something that proves little too hot for comfort. He like a man whose tire has been pictured in four places; but he not complain if, having inserted proboscis where it did not bear he gets it pulled a bit. I happen to know that Mr. "remarkable state of affairs" did refer to the measurement of alone, but to the entire system running things. Mr. Fay also me why he recommended the chase of the Durkee ranch, which will publish in due time, if I get the information from A. He also confided to me (in exact session) his opinion of Armor irrigation expert. I have never believed that I was anything wrong on the part of directors of either company or purchase of the ranch. I asked Armor to quiet the matter that has been circulated privately during the past. A simple denial would have sufficient for any one. As to wisdom of making the purported matter, perhaps open to debate. The negative be taken on slight provocative Mr. McFadden of Placentia, herdsmen fed their flocks on identical spot before Armor were born. Mr. Armor says that question was settled "by the most vote of both boards ofctors." This cheerful method "determination" may work all over in Orange, but there seem be a hitch on this side. gone ahead of the United Kingdom in the aggregate of its exports of all sorts. It was undoubtedly known, too, to both of them that the exports of manufactures of the United States are growing faster than those of agricultural products and the raw material of manufactures. What makes this circumstance of portentous consequence to an old industrial country like England is that the gain in the United States has been greater in the past two or three years than it was before. It promises to be still greater in 1901. Not only does the United States meet the older countries in the competition for the trade of Asia, Africa and South America, but it is making inroads into their home markets. The amount of American goods sold in England, France, Germany and the rest of Europe is constantly on the increase, notwithstanding the fact that we are discriminated against in the tariffs of the continental European nations. Germany is making great gains in exports, but the expansion in this respect is much larger by the United States than it is by any other country. Until about a dozen years ago England had virtually no competition in Asia and Africa which caused it any uneasiness. The writer in the London Mail who has been referred to says that Great Britain exported to South Africa in 1889 about $65,000,000 worth of goods, aud, while there has been an increase to only $75,000,000 since then, the United States sextupled its exports to South Africa in the interval, and now ranks second to England in this trade. It is evident that British authority believes the day is close at hand when the United States will take the lead in the exportation to Asia and Africa which his own country has had for generations. His words are echoed by other writers for the great papers in London, Liverpool, Manchester and the rest of the British trade centers. While Germany is making gains in its foreign trade, as compared with England, it is the United States which is really feared. Not only has the United States a larger population and immeasurably greater natural resources than Germany, but its people, as the British experts testify, are displaying a general versatility and adaptability in all their great industries such as those of no other country can approach. Here are the reasons why, at the opening of the new century, horoscopes of American industrial advancement in the near future are being cast by British and other old world author- In expectation of a visit from President McKinley in May the municipalities of the State are already arranging for his entertainment. Proper action has been taken by the Legislature to provide for such official recognition of the visit as the dignity of the State and of the Presidential office requires. It is understood the entire delegation in Congress from Ohio desires to make the pilgrimage to witness the launching of the battle-ship named after their State. The Ohio delegation is to be included in the formal invitation given by the Legislature. The occasion makes it quite appropriate to extend this courtesy to them as well as to the President, and such a mark of respect is certain to be welcome. While selfish considerations should have no place in extending a courtesy, it is still a fact that one of the things which California most needs is that Eastern men, prominent in national affairs, shall become more familiar with the resources of this State and its reasonable requirements, and for many years past there has been no State more prominent and powerful than Ohio in national councils, a fact which is largely due to the intellectual strength of the representatives of that State. There is no more distinguished body of men in Congress than the Ohio delegation, and there will be both pleasure and profit, which we shall try to make mutual, in a visit from those gentlemen. Accidentally Shot. REDDING, Cal., Jan. 7.—John William Hathaway, a well-known and prosperous farmer of the Oak Run section, near Redding, was accidentally shot and killed today in sight of his home. Death was due to a gunshot wound, the whole charge striking him in the pit of the stomach. It appears that Hathaway was engaged in repairing a fence, having taken his shotgun with him on the chance of a possible shot, and leaned the weapon against one of the fence posts. By some means he gun fell, and in striking the ground was discharged, inflicting the wound. Hathaway managed to crawl a distance of 20 or 30 feet before death ensued. There were no witnesses of the accident, and it was some time before the body was discovered. Hathaway leaves a widow and eight children. The news reached here by stage this evening, and a deputy coroner was dispatched to the scene. It was first thought it might have been a wisdom of making the purpure that is another matter, perhaps open to debate. The negative be taken on slight provocation Mr. McFadden of Placentia, herdsmen fed their flocks on identical spot before Armor were born. Mr. Armor says that question was settled "by the mous vote of both boards of officers." This cheerful method "determination" may work all over in Orange, but there seems to be a hitch on this side. If you explained the whole matter to your stockholders at your meeting, why not publish it for our benefit, instead of so twaddle not bearing on the sale we want to know about? Mr. Armor says he has answered "pert questions" regarding Newberry checkmate and their inches of water. I have seen his elucidations in vain for any formation on the subject, and still in the dark. It is generally derstood that Fuller gets thinner whenever he wants it. Newberry's land is just where before the purchase. Maybe he measured the water on a day Fuller was attending the circus. Then nothing is settled about submerged dam, etc.? A little with a certain contractor gave me impression that they were ready to let the contracts. So Armor thinks that he will us at the headgate, and not ride the "white elephant" despite the section house? Well, we will try to worry and get the elephant's hide some other color if it frightens people. We should, however, borrow his friend Archimedes his lever, fulcrum and other tools pry the party who was "workworld" before I was born (and over into the twentieth century correct his bad habit of his 500-inch cement ditches onto his 500-inch ones, by the exercise his "superior judgment." I desire to correct the impressions received by Mr. Armor that opposed to co-operation by the companies. I am heartily favor of it so long as it is that kind exemplified by those of the lion and the lamb. At the risk of being tedious having the entire civil code at me, I will again explain Armor the idea of having a man to take charge of the affairs company. The Santa Fe Rail runs through this town, I hope Probably most of the direct road do not know of it The question of the right of the executive board of a municipality to "transfer funds" has been recently the subject of an opinion filed by the Supreme Court. The city of San Diego contracted with the San Diego Water company for a municipal supply of water. It was agreed that the city would assume entire control of the water plant, and that the company should furnish the necessary water, and to that end the charter of the city was arranged to meet the requirements. A section of the charter relating to the rental of the water plant recited that the money in the "water fund" should be used only for paying salaries, etc., and finally for rental of the plant. When the water company came to collect its bill from the city, it found the fund exhausted, and payment was refused. However, suit was brought, and the Superior Court gave judgment to the water company, but without designating where the money was to come from. T. J. Higgins and other tax payers of the city brought suit in an injunction against the city to compel forfeiture of the lease, and the water company became intervenor. The lower court gave judgment for the plaintiff, from taken his shotgun with him on the chance of a possible shot, and leaned the weapon against one of the fence posts. By some means the gun fell, and in striking the ground was discharged, inflicting the wound. Hathaway managed to crawl a distance of 20 or 30 feet before death ensued. There were no witnesses of the accident, and it was some time before the body was discovered. Hathaway leaves a widow and eight children. The news reached here by stage this evening, and a deputy coroner was dispatched to the scene. It was at first thought it might have been a case of suicide, but there was no reason for Hathaway to do away with himself, his affairs and domestic relations being in every way satisfactory. An inquest will be held tomorrow. CHILDREN PERISH IN FLAMES. ROCHESTER, N. Y., Jan. 8.—Fire broke out in the Rochester Orphan Asylum at 1 o'clock this morning in Hubbell Park and the flames spread rapidly to other sections of the institution. It is known that nineteen of the children perished, and it is feared that many more victims may be reported later. The fire was first seen by two men passing the asylum. They quickly sent in an alarm and then turned their attention toward arousing the nurses and the children. A terrific explosion was then heard, and in a moment the entire hospital section was in flames. On the arrival of the fire apparatus a general alarm was turned in, calling the entire department. The smoke began to pour out of every window in the main building, and the screams and frantic cries of the children could be heard. Children and nurses were carried from the building, some in an unconscious condition, others dead. Ambulances from the city, St. Mary's, Homeopathic and Hahnemann hospitals were summoned, and the victims were hurried to the civil institutions. There were 109 children at the hospital and a corps of about 30 nurses and attendants. Two of the women attendants are among the dead. The origin of the fire is not known at this time. The property loss will probably exceed $20,000. At the risk of being tedious having the entire civil code run through this town, I will again explain Armor the idea of having a new company. The Santa Fe runs through this town, I probably most of the direct road do not know of its ence. When a new sidetrack needed here, or some repairs station, or anything of the kind they hitch up a special train their happy homes and bed and come here to see about whether they know anything about if they did? No; they employ competent person, the civic notwithstanding, to look after matters. He is entirely responsible to them, and if he does not work well they fire him and some one else. So with all ones, whose directors are not able to do the work themselves. Very companies have a managing director. The affairs of the A. U. W. co-are a complicated matter requiring technical skill in several directions. It would be desirable and essential to have the executive invested in one person possessing requisite qualifications, he be sponsible to the board of directors. I don't know whether Armor understand this, but I think that of your readers will. However, it is entirely probable that we will be able to conduct own purely internal affairs fashion ourselves, at least so far as the ancient party before referral is still with us. What we know of Armor is the answer following questions: Why did you buy the ranch? Where is your certificate to that 1000 inches of water? How did the purchase check Newberry? Do you intend to consult them? ARMOR TRIES POETRY, TOO. Likens Sherwood to a Rooster Moving Off and Picking Up a Chip, to Show He Is Not Afraid. EDITOR GAZETTE:—It is a question whether Sherwood's last effusion was intended for Durkee or me; but there was so little in it that it might be considered by either or not at all. After discarding the proffered help of the Fullerton correspondent of the Times and characterizing that paper as "an irresponsible sheet," Sherwood proceeded to wash his hands of that $35,000 canard, as something for which he was unwilling to stand sponsor, and threw the whole blame for undervaluing the ranch upon McFadden, notwithstanding his own repeated sneers at the purchase. Having failed to score a point on that part of his content with all his hullabaloo, he dismissed it as "a matter of minor importance what the ranch could have been bought for, who got the money, or even whether we got value received." Before finally abandoning the field, however, he remarked that Newberry told a friend of his that he had the ranch for sale at $35,000 holders before letting contracts on the joint work up the river? If he can not or will not answer these questions he had better switch off on a siding somewhere and clear the main line. I do not feel inclined to publicly continue the personal features of the discussion longer with one who, having started the ball rolling, gets in the way of it a few times himself, and then, picking himself up, pulls out his civil code and quotes the provisions of the "baby act." If he wishes to continue the personal part of the discussion in some secluded part of the Durkee ranch, I authorize you, Mr. Editor, to make all arrangements. BB air-guns would be suitable weapons, I think, as furnishing more wind than argument. G. W. Sherwood. ARMOR TRIES POETRY, TOO.

I simply used Armor to quiet the rumor it has been circulated publicly during this past year. Simple denial would have been incident for any one. As to the blundom of making the purchase it is another matter perhaps still too late to debate. The negative will taken on slight provocation by McFadden of Placentia, whose allies fed their flocks on that tactical spot before Armor and I were born. Mr. Armor says that this question was settled "by the unanimous vote of both boards of directive." This cheerful method of determination" may work all right in Orange, but there seems to be hitch on this side.

The negative will taken on slight provocation by Mr. McFadden of Placentia, whose elders fed their flocks on that critical spot before Armor and I were born. Mr. Armor says that the question was settled "by the unanimous vote of both boards of directive." This cheerful method of determination" may work all right in Orange, but there seems to a hitch on this side. If you explained the whole matter your stockholders at your annual rating, why not publish it again your benefit, instead of so much riddle not bearing on the subject want to know about? Mr. Armor says he has answered "pert questions" regarding the wberry checkmate and the 1000 miles of water. I have searched revelations in vain for any information on the subject, and am in the dark. It is generally understood that Fuller gets the 1000 miles whenever he wants it; and wberry's land is just where it was more the purchase. Maybe Armor measured the water on a day when Fuller was attending the circus. When nothing is settled about the emerged dam, etc.? A little talk with a certain contractor gave me impression that they were about to let the contracts. No Armor thinks that he will leave the headgate, and not try to be the "white elephant" down to section house? Well, we will try to worry along, and get the elephant's hide dyed in other color if it frightens his people. We should, however, like to grow his friend Archimedes, with clever, fulcrum and other tools, to the party who was "working the world" before I was born (and since) or into the twentieth century, and correct his bad habit of hitching a nine-inch cement ditches onto the end 300-inch ones, by the exercise of "superior judgment." I desire to correct the impression received by Mr. Armor that I am exposed to co-operation between the companies. I am heartily in favor of it so long as it is not of kind exemplified by the fable the lion and the lamb. At the risk of being tedious and of having the entire civil code thrown home, I will again explain to Mr. Armor the idea of having a manager take charge of the affairs of the company. The Santa Fe railway was through this town, I believe, probably most of the directors of the road do not know of its existent spot before Armor and I were born.

The Santa Fe railway was probably most of the directors of the road do not know of its existence. When a new sidetrack is needed here, or some repairs to the station, or anything of the kind, do they hitch up a special train, leave their happy homes and business all come here to see about it? They know anything about it they did? No; they employ some competent person, the civil code withstanding, to look after these matters. He is entirely responsible them, and if he does not do his work well they fire him and get one else. So with all companies, whose directors are not paid to the work themselves. Very often companies have a managing director. The affairs of the A.U.W. company is a complicated matter requiring technical skill in several directions. It would be desirable and economical to have the executive controlled in one person possessing the requisite qualifications, he being responsible to the board of directors. I don't know whether Armor can understand this, but I think the rest your readers will. However, it is entirely probable that we will be able to conduct our own purely internal affairs after a fashion ourselves, at least so long as the ancient party before referred to still with us. What we want to know of Armor is the answer to the following questions: Why did you buy the Durkee such? Where is your certificate of title that 1000 inches of water? How did the purchase checkmate strawberry? Do you intend to consult the stock- Local Dots.

By order of the Board of Directors. W.H.BLENNEKHASSETTT Secretary. ANAHEIM Cal., January 8th, 1901. Character Told by Lips. "Whether or not we believe in phrenology, physiognomy and kindred sciences, there are some peculiarities of feature that are quite often indicative of certain traits of character," said an observant man. "From no one feature of the face can the disposition be more accurately read than from the lips and especially the upper lip. The lower one is less prophetic." "A person with a short, sharply curved upper lip is nearly always of a happy, lovable disposition. One with a short but straight upper lip is apt to be of a low order of intellect and coarse in his tastes. The person with a long, straight upper lip is the one to be beware of. He has a will like adamant, is not always thoroughly trustworthy, is apt to be quarrelsome and jealous and is more often than not an unmitigated politician. If he is gifted with a strong intellect, he will make his mark in one way or another; if he is not, he may become a harmless person, a parasite or a scoundrel. The man whose upper lip protrudes is apt to be a shrewd business man." "The person whose mouth has a decided droop at the corners may be a humorist, a hypochondriac or a poet. The possessor of a mouth curved in the style of Cupid's bow is indeed happy, for in nine cases out of ten he also possesses a refined aesthetic and yet practical nature, susceptible to every beautiful and ennobling influence." — Chicago Record.

Take the common sheep sorrel which grows in your yard and which children eat because of its sourness, mash it up into a pulp in some vessel that will save all the juice that would otherwise be lost, then put it into a bag and squeeze out all the juice on to a pewter plate to get some of the acid from the metal, then put this out in the sun and let it dry until about as thick as tar, then put in tight bottle. If the skin is not broken, put a drop of chloride of potash or lye on it to break the skin and then apply the sorrel on the cancer, just covering it with a thin coat. If the sorrel gets too thick, a little water will make it so that it can be handled. The pain will be severe, but it is otherwise harmless. It will stop hurting in a few hours. Keep up these applications one every day until the cancer can be lifted without pain. It took four days in my case. The sorrel will cook the cancer, but it does not eat it as it does the flesh, hence it eats all the flesh away and lets the cancer loose. When you see the cancer, put the sorrel on it and not on the flesh. When the cancer is out, heal the sore with any kind of healing ointment—J.A.Wayland in Appeal to Reason. Bury Their Lepers Alive. The Chinese have a curiously cheerful way of disposing of their lepers.The relatives of them that afflicted person propose to him that they bury him alive,and such is the fatalism of the Chinese,the victim readily consents.An extra elaborate meal is served to him in the way of a farewell banquet,and then the funeral procession forms.The man who is about to be immured under the sod follows his own coffin,and when he reaches the grave he takes a dose of laudanum,hops into the box and settles down for eternity. Dr.Wittenberg writing on the subject of leprosy in China,says that the pure nerve form is the least common.In such cases.as is well known,the patients may go on for years.As to mixed form,它 is fairly common,但 it is a difficult matter to estimate the number of lepers in any given district.The sufferers lead the common life so long as they remain free from destructive lesions。When these occur to any marked degree,the leper is either segregated in a hut or he is allowed to wander about the country,sustaining life by begging.Dr.Wittenberg records cases of direct contagion from mother-in-law to daughter-in-law. King Humbert’s Pine Trees. King Humbert took great pride in his pine grove and one day，arriving unexpectedly，found a forester preparing to cut down a tree. “What are you about?” asked the king. “This pine is growing too tall,your majesty.” “Would you like it if I ordered your feet to be cut off because you are taller than your fellows?” The hint was enough and the tree left unmolested—London Telegraph.

While the dinner was in progress Lord Russell suggested to Comyns Carr that he propose Sir Henry's health. "I can't make speeches, you know," he said. Sir Henry gently replied, "I heard you make a fine speech before the Parnell commission." To which the pungent Irishman answered, "Oh, yes, but then I had something to talk about!" Fixed It. Mamma—Now, Freddy, mind what I say. I don't want you to go over into the next garden to play with that Binks boy. He's very rude. Freddy (heard a few minutes afterward calling over the wall)—I say, Binks, ma says I'm not to go in your garden because you're rude, but you come into my garden—I ain't rude. In China criminals and political prisoners are beheaded. Some of the executioners are so expert that they can arrange and behead a man in 18 seconds. No military parade or drill except in case of war, riot, invasion or insurrection is lawful on election day in New York. Cutting Watch Glasses. In the production of common watch glasses the glass is blown into a sphere about a meter in diameter, sufficient material being taken to give the desired thickness, as the case may be. Disks are then cut out from this sphere with the aid of a pair of compasses having a diamond at the extremity of one leg. There is a knack in detaching the disk after it has been cut. A good workman will, it is said, cut 6,000 glasses in a day. Twice Hanged. A former police sergeant of this city interests his friends occasionally with reminiscences of his career on the force. One of his stories is that of a man who was hanged twice. The old man had become weary of life and determined to end his earthly existence by hanging himself. He arose one night after the other members of the family had retired. Procuring a rope, he fastened one end carefully around his neck and the other to the stair rail, and then threw himself over the balustrade. His sons awakened at the usual hour in the morning, but upon starting down stairs were horrified to see their old father hanging at the end of a rope. They cut down the body and then hastened to apprise the neighbors of the tragedy. Some of the neighbors being great respecters of the law, advised the sons that in cutting down the body before obtaining permission from the police or coroner made them liable to imprisonment in the penitentiary. Frightened by this information, the sons hurriedly returned home and obtaining another rope, fastened it about the neck of their father and let the body down in the position in which they had found it. They then hunted up the police sergeant and told him of the suicide of their father. When the police sergeant reached the house, he cut down the body, but was quite surprised to find that there were two ridges around the throat. He asked for an explanation. The sons hesitated for a time, but finally confessed to the whole affair.-Baltimore Sun.
