A Minister's Mistake.
A city minister was recently handed a notice to be read from his pulpit. Accompanying it was a clipping from a newspaper bearing upon the matter. The clergyman started to read the extract and found that it began:“Take Kemp's Balsam, the best cough cure.” This was hardly what he had expected, and, after a moment's hesitation, he turned it over, and found on the other side the matter intended for the reading.
La Fiesta de Las Flores and President McKinley at Los Angeles May 8th and 9th. The Southern Pacific Co. will sell round trip tickets May 7th to May 9th inclusive for $1.10. Return limit May 10th.

Horrible Death.
OAKLAND, May 3. — Timothy Maloney, a young jockey at the race track, met a horrible death shortly after 9 o'clock this morning. Young Maloney, whose home is in Sacramento, had been riding at the track for Harry Whiteman for some time past, and was one of the most popular riders on the course.
This morning, while he was exercising the horse Fine Shot, galloping the wrong way on the track, and hugging close to the fence, his horse collided with another horse coming from the opposite direction, both attempting to turn out to avoid running into each other. The other rider escaped injury, but young Malony was thrown, his right foot being caught fast in the stirrup and he was dragged a quarter of a mile. When picked up it was found that his head was beaten into an awful mass from being struck against the fence, and his left arm was broken in two places.
Coroner Mehrmann was immediately notified, and Deputies Quellan and Moltel later removed the remains to the morgue in Oakland, where an inquest will be held.
Malony's father at Sacramento has been advised of his son's awful death and will arrive here this evening to take charge of the body.

ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, MAY 9, 1901.
ANAHEIM'S NEW HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING.
The above illustration shows the new high school building to be erected in this city. Bids for its erection will be opened tomorrow. The building and its contents are to cost $13,000.
The structure will have a frontage of 113 feet, and a depth of 96 feet. It will be brick veneered, and of the Moorish style of architecture, one story and basement, with tile roofing. Its exterior appearance resembles the famous Long Beach high school building. Its interior arrangement is believed to be superior.
The entrance will have a stone front. The tower will contain the bell.
The building will be fitted with gas and electric lighting fixtures.
The inside will be so constructed that there will be absolutely no loss of space. It will be in rotunda style, having a central hall into which all rooms will open.
The architect is J. H. Bradbeer of Los Angeles. The building will be, when completed, one of the handsomest in Southern California. The site will be in the Garnsey tract, on Center street.
THIS MAN WAS NOT NELSON
A Case of Mistaken Identity. Concerned Robt. C. Siebert, Who Had a Stolen Pistol in His Possession.
We last week published an item dealing with an interview had by one our reporters with Fred Johnson relative to the recovery of a pistol belonging to him, which he found in possession of an orange-picker at Fullerton. The story was to the effect that the pistol had been sold by a person, who, closer investigation, resembled the published description of one Nelson, who murdered a woman in Los Angeles month ago and has since eluded the officers of the law.
Johnson's pistol had been stolen from his orange-picking camp in the Bayford orange grove some weeks before. On seeing it in possession of the orange-picker he immediately claimed and has since had possession of it.
The matter was referred to Constable Pendergrast at the time. The man who sold the pistol was hunted up. He answered to the description of the Los Angeles murderer, and Pendergrast and Johnson both suspected him being Nelson.
This man claimed he had purchased the pistol of two tramps, paying cents therefor. He said he could produce the men the next morning at o'clock.
Johnson says Pendergrast informs the man he would have to produce witnesses at that hour or suffer arrest.
That Pendergrast had suspicions relative to the man's identity is proved by the fact, that according to Johnson's statement, he went to his room, which
VAST ICE FOREST IN ALASKA.
Strange Growth of Vegetation Surrounded by Glaciers and Ice Peaks
In the icebound fastnesses of Alaska, visited only by the hardiest explorers, exist one of the most curious phenomena which a freakish mood of nature has ever conceived. It is a well-known fact that many forms of vegetation, particularly several members of the tree family, will exist and even thrive in spots apparently incapable of supporting plant life. Some of the curiosities in this line which travelers report from time to time are in themselves remarkable, yet when compared with what Alaska has to show they seem commonplace. For Alaska lays claim to nothing less than a vast forest growing in a foundation of ice.
During recent years many explorers who have penetrated to the most inaccessible parts of Alaska have brought back with them accounts of a forest found growing at an altitude of several thousand meters, surrounded by glaciers and ice peaks whose frozen surface is unrelieved by a particle of vegetation. These accounts were met with considerable skepticism until finally photographs and other indubitable evidence were secured in support of the tales.
The ice forest of Alaska is located on the Malaspina glacier, skirting the southern coast of Alaska, and extending for about sixty miles back from the base of Malaspina glacier in width more than 130 feet, and a depth of 96 feet. It will be brick veneered, and of the Moorish style of architecture, one story and basement, with tile roofing. Its exterior appearance resembles the famous Long Beach high school building. Its interior arrangement is believed to be superior.
The entrance will have a stone front. The tower will contain the bell.
The building will be fitted with gas and electric lighting fixtures.
The inside will be so constructed that there will be absolutely no loss of space. It will be in rotunda style, having a central hall into which all rooms will open.
The architect is J. H. Bradbeer of Los Angeles. The building will be, when completed, one of the handsomest in Southern California. The site will be in the Garnsey tract, on Center street.
The first floor will contain four large class rooms, one large laboratory, a large business room, one assembly hall with a seating capacity of 300, library room, office and store room.
In the basement there will be a janitor's room, property-room two large recitation rooms, lunch rooms and toilets.
The ventilation and heating systems conform to the latest sanitary requirements. The lighting system conforms to the German laws for schoolroom lighting. The lighting space bears a ratio to the floor space of 1 to 4. The system is known as the rear back light.
The principal of the high school is F. G. Athearn, to whom great credit is due for the voting of bonds for the erection of the building. Mr. Athearn has been an enthusiastic believer in the necessity for the building of a new high school, and to his energy and perseverance is the final successful issue in great part to be attributed. He teaches mathematics and modern languages. He has three assistants in the school, as follows:
Alva J. Remmel, teacher of sciences; Miss Purle E. Bottomes, Latin and Greek, and Miss Edith R. Kurtz, English and History.
Prof. E. B. Clapp of the University of California visited the high school last week, and reported in favor of accrediting it in all its branches.
This will give graduates the right to enter the State University without the necessity of passing an examination at Berkeley.
Anaheim is proud of its high school, and its scholarly corps of teachers. And we are all going to be proud of the new High school building as soon as it is erected.

The ice forest of Alaska is located on
the Malaspina glacier, skirting the
southern coast of Alaska, and extending
for about sixty miles back from the
bay of Yukatat, covering in width more
than twenty-five miles. The exact
size of the glacier is about 2347 square
miles. It forms an immense plain of
ice, almost as level as a sheet of water,
and resembling more than anything else the prairies of the Western States.
Viewed from a neighboring peak, the eye discerns nothing but a blank sheet of crystal, whose monotonous expanse bears not a speck of color. In the eastern portion of the Malaspina glacier is the ice forest—a long belt of tall trees and gnarled trunks, facing the sea in a huge semi-circle and forming a vivid contrast to the frosted peaks and glittering ice field that covers the sea as far as the eye can reach. The contrast is heightened by the fact that there is no other vegetation for a distance of several hundred miles around.
In explanation of the origin of the phenomenon it is explained that the sun shining during a short day upon the ice-clad peaks and surface of the glacier causes the ice to melt rapidly and vanish in countless small rivulets, leaving the rocky summits bare and unprotected. This daily action of swift-flowing water gradually ate away these rocks and deposited them in layers upon the flat surface of the glacier below, until in course of time a surface of earth several feet in thickness was formed on the ice. While the ice surrounding the deposits of rock melted, and in turn was carried away, the covering of earth protected a part of the ice, until finally a patch of earth many miles square was left high and dry on the bosom of the glacier.
The soil which supports the trees is very loose—in fact, so loose that it is impossible to climb a steep ascent. The appearance of the soil is perfectly natural, and, were it not for the fact that in many spots holes several feet in depth disclose the layer of ice beneath, it would be almost impossible to realize that this great forest was really unable to sleep for the past two or three weeks, and no reason is known for his suicide except despondency.
Lelong had been for many years prominent in horticultural affairs in this State. He was born in Los Angeles in 1856, where the reputation of his father as a horticulturist made the "Lelong orchard" widely known. The enthusiasm of the son in the direction of fruit culture was inherited from his father, a native of Lorraine, France, where he had been engaged in the same pursuit before coming to America.
Young Lelong, after graduating from St. Vincent's College at Los Angeles, studied law, but horticultural pursuits had more charms for him. He was appointed by Governor Stoneman a member of the State Board of Horticulture in 1886, being elected secretary of the board in 1887, and in 1899, through an act of the Legislature, became chief horticultural officer of the State. Numerous works on fruit growing in California have been written by him.
Mining Consolidation.
A document has been filed with the County Recorder providing for the consolidation of a number of placer claims located some time ago near Anaheim Landing, and formerly known as the Alamitos placer mining claims. They are grouped for the purpose of advancing their development. They are all continuous and show good indications in the limited prospecting that has already been done. The projectors hope to interest moneyed men in their development. The locators are F. A. Korn, L. Schorn, L. Nemetz, H. C. Gade, E. M. Kraemer, E. B. Johnson, Charles Dussourt, G. Brunswiker, Jacob Yaeger, L. J. Nemetz, R. Wisser, Fred Pressel, S. R. Cokeley, L. Yaeger, Stella Yaeger and John Hahn, all well known residents of this section.

Siebert desired that Judge Shankl pass upon the ownership of the pistol To this Johnson consented. After hearing evidence the Judge decided that pistol was Johnson's property. To Siebert he said the law made a party having stolen goods in his possession equally guilty with the thief.
Siebert left the courtroom and went on his way rejoicing.
Learns He Was Buried
Mortimer Montpetit has returned to Walla Walla from his former home Ohio to find that he was buried two years ago after being fatally burned by a fire. These alleged facts are matters of record in the office of the County Auditor at Walla Walla.
Several years ago Montpetit was for man on a fruit ranch near Walla Walla and spent his Sundays in town. He did appear one night without any apparent reason. Some time later a man body was found in the ruins of a war house that burned down.
The body was identified as that Montpetit. A lodge of United Workers men, to which order he belonged, took charge of the funeral and erected a marble headstone above his grave.
This closed the affair until Montpetit returned to Walla Walla last month. He was greatly surprised to hear his supposed death, stating that he lost town suddenly because he had a strong desire to go home and see his family.
He went to the cemetery next day and had the tombstone removed. He is now exercised because of the recurrence in the Auditor's office showing that he is officially dead. He has taken matter into the Superior Court, requesting that the Auditor be directed to make the record conform to this facts.
"It is with a good deal of pleasure and satisfaction that I recommend Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy," says Druggist A. W. Sawtelle of Hartford, Conn. "A lax customer, seeing the remedy exposed for sale on my show case, said to me: really believe that medicine saved my life the past summer while at the shore and she became so enthusiastic over merits that I at once made up my mind to recommend it in the future." He gently a gentleman came into my store so overcome with colic pains that he sank at once to the floor. I gave him dose of this remedy which helped him repeated the dose and in fifteen minutes he left my store smilingly informing me that he felt as well as ever Sold by P. A. Derge, druggist."

PRESIDENT M'KINLEY ARRIVES
He and His Distinguished Party Reached
California Yesterday — Today He
Spends in Los Angeles.
President McKinley and his distinguished party arrived in California yesterday afternoon. He was welcomed by Gov. Gage, who went to meet him,
with a gathering of distinguished Californians.
The President had an enthusiastic welcome to the Golden State. His reception in Los Angeles was in the nature of a great public demonstration.
President McKinley has been making a series of notable speeches on his way to the Pacific Coast. The course of his progress through Virginia, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana has already been noted. Friday morning, May 3,
found him entering the great State of Texas, where his reception was most notable, as will be seen from the following continuation of the story of his progress westward:
AUSTIN, Tex., May 3.—Out of Dixie,
the Presidential party today traveled into the heart of the great Southwest.
After leaving New Orleans yesterday,
beautiful Bayou Teche, the home of
the Arcadians, and the waving rice fields of Western Louisiana were passed during the night, and the new oil fields of Texas whirled by just at the peep of day, just too early to be seen by the President. When the party arose this morning, the train was already flying over the plains of Texas, which stretched away to the horizon in every direction, as level as a floor.
Until 4:30 o'clock this afternoon,
when Austin was reached, the train
lic of Texas, was the flag of the republic. It seemed appropriate that it should have been given in the city bearing the name of the soldier, statesman and hero, Gen. Sam Houston, the first President of the republic.
"We live in a wonderful era, and our trusteeship is a large and sacred one. We must not be unfaithful to our high mission, or falter before its high responsibilities, nor must we permit pride or might or power to taint our motives and lead us from the plain paths of duty and divert us from the sacred principles of liberty."

After leaving New Orleans yesterday,
beautiful Bayou Teche, the home of
the Arcadians, and the waving rice fields of Western Louisiana were passed during the night, and the new oil fields of Texas whirled by just at the peep of day, just too early to be seen by the President. When the party arose this morning, the train was already flying over the plains of Texas, which stretched away to the horizon in every direction, as level as a floor.
Until 4:30 o'clock this afternoon,
when Austin was reached, the train passed in succession through the cotton belt of Texas, the rich agricultural region beyond the Brazos river known as the Black Praire, much wooded country and fine grazing land. The President had his first glimpse of long-horned Texas cattle and picturesque cowboys on range horses.
The President's reception in the Lone Star State was a continuation of the ovation he has received throughout the South. Every honor was shown him and his party, and there was much enthusiasm. Gov. Sayers and other prominent State officials met the President at Houston, the first stopping-piace inside the State, and accompanied him as far as Austin, the capital. There were some interesting features at the reception at Austin, and a picturesque scene at Prairie View, where the President addressed the colored students of the State Normal School on a stand erected on the open prairie at the side of the track. He advised the colored people to learn to do one thing well.
Minute stops were also made at Hempstead, where the President shook hands with a number of people: at Brenham, the home of Col. Giddings, one of the President's old colleagues in the House Representatives, and at Elgin, at each of which places he spoke a few words. At every station along the route there were cheering crowds.
The feature of the day was the reception accorded to the party at Austin, which, like New Orleans, had never before had the honor of entertaining a chief magistrate of the nation. The city was profusely decorated, and in the evening there was a brilliant illumination of Congress avenue. Austin never before held such crowds of people. They came from every direction. some hundreds of miles, and they literally swamped the hotel accommodations of the city. It was estimated that over 20,000 visitors were here. As the population of Austin is only 23,000 the tax upon its facilities can be imagined.
A pocession headed by a fine military band and consisting of fifteen companies of State militia and the Confederate Veterans and Grand Army of the Republic organizations, marching side by side, escorted by the party to the portico of the magnificent Capitol building, where the President addressed a sea of enthusiastic people.
There was a delightful reception in the Sachem, where the belles of Austin, noted all over Texas for their beauty, received the President and Mrs. McKinley. This function was one of the most charming yet experienced on the trip. Then followed a drive through Miss Ada Soo-buena Park.

Chris Evans.
Chris Evans, the noted train robber,
who for several years held up Southern Pacific trains in the San Joaquin Valley, will apply for parole under the new State law. Evans is serving a life term of imprisonment at Folsom prison.
For seven years he has been a model prisoner, putting in most of his time as assistant in the drug department. He is 60 years old, and has only one arm and one eye, the result of his last fight with the law officers. His wife is supporting her family by doing washing at Visalia.
Probably the Wells-Fargo Express company and the Southern Pacific will have something pertinent to say about his appeal to be allowed to go free on parole. Though he has only one arm, these companies, which lost several thousand dollars through his activity around Visalia, may take the ground that he is still able to handle a gun, and may return to his old profession of holding up trains.
Pan-American Stamps
Philatelists, professional and amateur, and many persons interested only in a sentimental way, are anxious pur chasers of the new set of Pan-American stamps, just issued by the Government. Experts say that the complete set of six stamps is the handsomest ever issued by the Government in choice of subjects, of centerpiece, in coloring and in exquisite engraving. The stamps come in denominations of 1, 2,
4, 5, 8 and 10 cents. By Government regulation, the color of the one-cent stamp must be green, that of the 2 red and that of the 5 blue. The colors of the others are of peculiarly reddish brown, of rich, varying shades.
The center pictures are all black and the subjects chosen are most finely engraved and appropriate to the purpose for which they were issued. That on one-cent stamp represents a lake steamship, the 2 a fast express, the 4 an automobile, the 5 a bridge over Niagara, the 8 Sault Ste. Marie, and the 10 an ocean steamship.
Father's Brutal Crime.
St. Paul (Minn.) May 2.-The body of of nine-year-old Rosenfield boy was taken from the river near Fort Snelling today. This is believed to confirm police suspicion that William Rosenfield drowned his four children and himself one week ago. The crime was most brutal, the father first abducting children, who were in custody of their mother.
William Rosenfield, the father, had for some time been separated from his
He Was Buried.
A former Montpetit has returned to Walla from his former home in find that he was buried two days after being fatally burned in These alleged facts are mat record in the office of the Counsellor at Walla Walla.
There was a delightful reception in the Sachem, where the belles of Austin, noted all over Texas for their beauty, received the President and Mrs. McKinley. This function was one of the most charming yet experienced on the trip. Then followed a drive through the city to the State university, where the students, citizens and school children greeted the President.
Later, the President and Mrs. McKinley, with the ladies of the Cabinet, dined informally at the Governor's mansion, and at 10:30 o'clock to-night left for San Antonio, famous for its Alamo and its Spanish missions, where tomorrow will be spent. The train is due to arrive at San Antonio at 1:15 o'clock, where it will remain on a side-track until the rising hour.
President McKinley's speech from the east portico of the Capitol at Austin was as follows:
"My fellow-citizens: No more cordial or generous welcome has greeted me in my journey from the capital of the nation, than that which now greets me at the capital of Texas. I am glad to be in this city, named in honor of the pioneer of American colonization in Texas, located in the county of Travis, called in honor of him who fell at the Alamo, whence came no message of defeat.
Texas is no longer a battlefield of contending armies. The weapons used are no longer those of war; they have long since given way to the implements of peace and husbandry, employed in the development of rich resources, in which this commonwealth abounds. She has a historic past, a noble past. Her statesmen are among the noblest, ablest; her soldiers are among the bravest. She has before her a mighty future. Her battles to be waged hereafter are for trade and commerce, and education and material development. Her possibilities are too vast to admit of prophesy. God has given her everything for the comfort and happiness of man, and for the employment and use of his highest and best facilities.
Today, it was my pleasure in the city of Houston to experience one of the pleasantest incidents of my long journey. Given into my hands by the widow of the last President of the Repub-

of Cod Liver Oil is the means of life, and enjoyment of life to thousands: men women and children.
When appetite fails, it restores it. When food is a burden, it lifts the burden.
When you lose flesh, it brings the plumpness of health.
When work is hard and duty is heavy, it makes life bright.
It is the thin edge of the wedge; the thick end is food. But what is the use of food when you hate it, and can't digest it?
Scott's Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil is the food that makes you forget your stomach.
If you have not tried it, send for free sample, its agreeable taste will surprise you.
