Brides are probably just as beautiful now as ever they were, but they are not nearly so anxious to record their postnuptial loveliness by means of photographs. Most photographers say they are glad of it. "I never did enjoy taking the pictures of brides," said a photographer. "Like all the rest of the world, I love the dear creatures, but when it comes down to $4 a dozen commercialism they do not satisfy my artistic instincts. New brides take a good picture. Somehow their togs are not becoming. A bride is supposed to look superlatively lovely on her wedding day, but if anybody dared to tell the truth on the subject that superstition soon would be exploded and the sweet things would realize that, instead of looking their best on that occasion, most of them are apt to look their worst. It is the same way when they come to be photographed in their wedding finery. They are either too pale or too red, and they have a nervous, anxious expression that robs the face of all good lines for photographic purposes." The time was when no bride considered herself really married until she had arrayed herself in spotless white and had her picture taken. Generally 'he' came with her, and 'he' looked just about as foolish as she did. Goodness, the trouble I have had posing brides and bridgems before the camera. The Weekly Gazette. Established 1870.

Drying preparations simply develop dry as archa; they dry up the secretions, which adhere to the membrane and decompose, causing a far more serious trouble than the ordinary form of catarrh. Avoid all drying inhalants, fumes, smokes and sniffs and use that which cleanses, soothes and heals. Ely's Cream Balm is such a remedy and will cure catarrh or cold in the head easily and pleasantly.

IN WEEKLY GAZETTE ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA. THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 12. 1903. NOTE AND COMMENT According to the report of State Comptroller E. P. Colgan the grand total of taxable property in California is $1,598,603,226. This estimate includes railroads. Estimated value of all real estate is $849,490,266; improvements on real estate, $352,635,409; value of personal property, $269,488,904; money and solvent credits, $42,800,889; value of railroads as returned by the state board of equalization, $84,187,758. Los Angeles county is second among counties with a grand total of $169,268,166 divided as follows: Real estate $96,401,189; improvements on real estate, $40,185,600; personal property, $27,863,030; money, $884,733; railroads, $3,933,614 The grand total is more than 10 per cent. of the valuation of the entire state. San Francisco leads with $564,070,301 worth of property, or more than 30 per cent. of the state's wealth. Real estate is valued at $261,960,500; improvements, $128,159,408; personal property, $122,147,473; money and solvent credits, $33,-599,059; railroads, $18,203,855. Alameda county, total assessment, $128,-681,766; Santa Clara county, $61,390,-817; Sacramento county, $41,333,337. Southern California counties are assessed as follows: Kern, $24,050,871; San Bernardino, $21,392,228; San Diego and assumed their independence, and having adopted a government of their own, republican in form, with which the government of the United States has entered into relations, the president of the United States, in accordance with the ties of friendship which have so long and so happily existed between the respective nations, most earnestly commends to the governments of Colombia and of Panama the peaceful and equitable settlement of all questions at issue between them." JUDGE L. W. CLEAVELAND of the probate court at New Haven, Conn., has handed down a decision in the Philo S. Bennett will case, holding that the secret letter directing Mrs. Bennett, the widow, to pay William J. Bryan $50,000 was not part of the will. The effect of this is to prevent Mr. Bryan from obtaining the money mentioned in the letter unless the present decision is reversed by a higher court or unless he should be successful in legal proceedings against Mrs. Bennett in the event that the $50,000 should be paid under clause twelve of the will, which reads as follows: "Twelfth, I give and bequeath unto my wife, Grace Imogene Bennett, the sum of $50,-000 in trust, however, for the purposes set forth in a sealed letter which will be found beside the will." At one of the hearings of the will the text of the letter was made public. Mr. Bryan was not present when NEWSYNOTESFROMBERKELLE Annual Football Game Between University and Stanford Attracting Attention—Breaking Up Fowl Cholera Alumna are gathering from many parts of the state for the annual California-Stanford football game, to play on the Richmond field in San Francisco next Saturday afternoon November 14. Reunion dinners will be held on Friday, Nov. 13, the night before the game, by the classes of '99,'01,'02 and '03. The students will give their annual "football show" the night of the game in the Alba Bra theatre. The annual alumni banquet will be held at the Merchant Club in San Francisco on Monday evening November 16, with F. P. Deering,'75 as toast-master,and President Wheeler and Professor H. Morse Stephens among the speakers. The annual "axe rally," held always by the bleachers and at the gymnasium on the last day of football practice, commemoration of the capture of the Stanford broad-axe in 1897 is set for four o'clock Tuesday afternoon November 10. The closing football raid of the year will be held in the Harmon gymnasium on Thursday evening November 12. By checking the recent epidemic "fowl cholera" at Fallon in Marina county,the agricultural department of the university has given a valuable object lesson to the poultry raisers of the state and has saved to a single district more money than the total annual state appropriation for the universal ACTUAL consolidation of the electric roads H. E. Huntington has built and is to build in California with the Southern Pacific may never take place, but dating from last week E. H. Harriman and Kuhn, Loeb & Co. of the Southern Pacific have become large owners in the Pacific Electric railway of H. E. Huntington and I. W. Hellman in Southern California. They also are to be close partners of Huntington in the electric systems he aims to build out from Stockton and Fresno and elsewhere in the state. The deal signifies that Harriman has prevented any combination between Huntington and Hellman and the Santa Fe in the south. On an agreed basis the lines of the Southern Pacific, wherever they come into competition with the Huntington electric lines, are to work in harmony. In the San Joaquin valley a network of electric lines is to be built and the Harriman and Huntington arrangement will prevent these lines from being a disastrous source of competition to the Southern Pacific. W. R. Fuller of W. R. Fuller & Co. of Florida estimates the present crop of oranges in that state at 1,600,000 boxes, a remarkable increase since the freeze. Last year there were 750,000 boxes, the crop having been cut short by drought and red spider. The transportation companies claim that they handled 850,000 boxes last year. Fuller accounts for the discrepancy by the fact that a great many of the oranges were handled twice, passing from station to station in field crates, being thus reported by agents, recounted, and thereby enlarging the estimate. A great many have estimated this season's crop at over 2,000,000 boxes. These have not taken into consideration the damage done by the recent storm. Just now, while reports of Senator Hanna's success and the boom for him for president are in active circulation, the announcement is made upon good authority that the president and Senator Hanna have already reached such a good understanding that the president has decided, after consulting his friends, to ask Senator Hanna to remain as chairman of the National Republican Committee for another term. That means that Senator Hanna believes that the president will be nominated, and that the president believes Senator Hanna can manage the campaign better than anybody else. Senator Hanna, referring to the renewed suggestions made in various quarters that he is the logical Republican candidate for the presidency next year, as the result higher court or unless he should be successful in legal proceedings against Mrs. Bennett in the event that the $50,000 should be paid under clause twelve of the will, which reads as follows: "Twelfth, I give and bequeath unto my wife, Grace Imogene Bennett, the sum of $50,000, in trust, however, for the purposes set forth in a sealed letter which will be found beside the will." At one of the hearings of the will the text of the letter was made public. Mr. Bryan was not present when the decree was announced, but his attorney said he undoubtedly would appeal from Judge Cleaveland's decision. The text of the decision includes about 2,500 words. In it the court, after reviewing the evidence, says: Testimony of Mr. Dewell, who had known him for a quarter of a century, shows that the testator was a sharp, able business man, a man of decided opinions from which he was not easily turned aside. But what ever presumption, if any, might be raised by reason of Mr. Bryan's drafting the will, has been, in the opinion of the court, abundantly overcome by the evidence. Mr. Bryan testified that the idea of a bequest in his favor, so far from being suggested by him or Mrs. Bryan, was a complete surprise to both, a statement in which the court has entire confidence in view of Mr. Bryan's frankness on the witness stand and his evident desire to disclose fully his relation with the testator and all the circumstances surrounding the drafting of the will. It must also be remembered that the testator had ample opportunity to change his will at any time during the last three years of his life and without the knowledge of Mr. Bryan." Last summer a resident of Fallon lost 2700 fowls in an outbreak of fowl cholera. In October the disease appeared on a neighboring ranch where there was a flock of 3000 fowls, killing from thirty to fifty a day. The university was appealed to for aid. Sanary measures suggested by Professor Archibald R. Ward, the veterinarian of the Agricultural experiment station, and carried out by Foreman P.O. Woodworth of the Poultry experiment station resulted in the stamping out of the disease in less than three weeks with a loss of less than 300 fowls from all causes. Similar measures have since been used on other Marina county ranches with complete success. These experiments have been of value to the whole poultry industry for hitherto the "fowl cholera" has received little attention from American agricultural scientists, because of difficulty in obtaining clinical material. An account of the excavations carried on in Peru for several years by the University of California, through the generous aid of Mrs. Hearst, about to come from the university pre-in shape of a report by Dr. Mia Uhle, director of the university's Prauvian researches. The volume will comprise a thousand pages of text numbered plans and other illustrations, and some 65 photographic plates Having completed the working up of materials gathered on the first page pedition, Dr.Uhle will sail from S.France for Peru next week to examine his field work. A four-year course of training for students wishing to fit themselves for the profession of anthropology is now offered at the university. Great scientific opportunities for such work are afforded this state, with its extremely varied aboriginal population. The university has received many inquiries from different parts of the state as to reported experiments on inoculation of squirrels by some viruses designed to spread destruction among them. No such experiments have even been undertaken by the university nor have the university authorities learned the original of rumor. The new addition to the university library is now fully occupied. It fitsishes shelf room for many additional volumes. A feature is its six seminar rooms, where graduate students may pursue research with every convenient in way of quiet and convenient access to books and periodicals. RECOGNITION has been given by the United States government to the de facto government of Panama, and instructions were sent to United States Minister Beaupre at Bogota last Friday, and to Mr. Ehrman, the United States vice-consul at Panama and now acting consul there, to inform the governments of Colombia and Panama, respectively, that the de facto government is recognized. Following is the text of the telegram sent by the state department to Mr. Ehrman, the acting consul-general of the United States at Panama: "The people of Panama have by an apparently unanimous movement dissolved their political relations with the republic of Colombia and assumed their independence. When you are satisfied that a de facto government, republican in form and without substantial opposition from its own people, has been established in the state of Panama, you will enter into relations with it as the responsible government of the territory and look to it for all due action to protect the persons and property of the citizens of the United States and to keep open the isthmian transit in accordance with the obligations of existing treaties governing the relations of the United States to that territory." An instruction was sent by telegraph to Mr. Beaupre, the United States minister at Bogota, in the following terms: "The people of Panama, having by an apparently unanimous agreement dissolved their political connection with the republic of Colombia and Bogota, have handled twice, passing from station to station in field crates, being thus reported by agents, recounted, and thereby enlarging the estimate.

Of course these stories were put out in effort to turn Wall street againstthe president. It may be said however that men of any intelligence in Wall street or out of it do not believethe reports. Two negro men with three women and four children, gaunt, holloweyed and ragged, arrived at New York last week from Europe en route to their home in Ocilla, Ga., from Monroevia. They constituted a part ofthe survivors of a party of fifty-six southern negroes who about a year ago were sent by a numberof southern philanthropists, as an experiment in colonizing American negroes in Liberia. In less than eight months more than halfofthe entire party had died from jungle fever. No shade no shine no fruit flowers no leaves—November!'

NOTES FROM BERKELEY Football Game Between the University and Stanford Attracting Attention—Breaking Up Fowl Chofera are gathering from many in the state for the annual Cali-Stanford football game, to be held on the Richmond field in San Francisco next Saturday afternoon, October 14. Reunion dinners will be on Friday, Nov. 13, the night of the game, by the classes of '97, '02 and '03. The students will hear annual "football show" on out of the game in the Alhamatre. The annual alumni ban will be held at the Merchants' San Francisco on Monday evening, November 16, with F. P. Deer as toast-master, and President Erie and Professor H. Morse among the speakers. The "axe rally," held always on teachers and at the gymnasium last day of football practice, in honor of the capture of the el broad-axe in 1897, is set for clock Tuesday afternoon, No. 10. The closing football rally year will be held in the Harmonium on Thursday evening, No. 12.

URGED TO SAVE BIG TREES Acting Superintendent of California National Parks Advises Instant Action by Congress to Save Giant Trees From the Ax In his annual report, Captain Charles Young, acting superintendent of Sequoia and Gen. Grant National parks, California, in which many giant trees are located, urges the government of the land in those parks, now owned by private individuals, in Sequoia park there are many large tracts thus owned, and after waiting in vain for years for the government to purchase their property, the owners are beginning to sell off the large timber. "Many of them are tired of waiting," says Captain Young. "These big trees grow close to the country road. The owners have cut them down by the wholesale and put the lumber upon the market, and where once was a fine forest of magnificent giants there is now but devastation and ruin in the shape of stumps and sawdust piles on either side of the high road. It is but just to the owners and for the best interest of the government that the purchase of these patented lands within the park be authorized by congress if the parks are to be continued." He says the lands can be secured for reasonable prices. Major John Pitcher's report on Yellowstone park is devoted largely to the condition of the game in that preserve. He recommends that provisions be made. Telling Time by the Porch. The oldest system by which men have told the time of day is sundials. There are sundials still in existence since long before the Christian era. In fact, they have been found in Egypt dating before the pharaohs. The Indians and wild nations told the time by the position of the shadows of treasured mountains. The Chinese have served the art of sundials to perfecting and even today use pocket sundials instead of watches. One Chinese watchmaker is arranged his first pitch in such a way the shadow of the posts tells the time by which to regulate the watchtower—Ada Paterson in Pilgrim. What a Journalist Is. The editor's only son was seemingly struggling with a perplexing problem. He moved uneasily on his hobbyhorse and finally twisted all the mane off his nose. Too he crawled up on his father's knee and looking inquiringly in his face, said: "Pa, what is a journalist?" My son said the editor as he mediatively smoked the golden head of his offspring—"my son, a journalist is a man who wears a plug hat and no shoes and borrows money from newspaper men."—Memphis Schmitar.

Dog's Body" and "Dandy Funk." Biscuits, or, as they are familiarly called at sea, 'pantiles,' are served out with a liberal hand," says Charles He says the lands can be secured for reasonable prices. Major John Pitcher's report on Yellowstone park is devoted largely to the condition of the game in that preserve. He recommends that provisions be made for feeding game in the park in the winter. The danger of loss by starvation, he says, is increasing yearly, owing to the fact that the country around the park is settling up and thus limiting the range. He thinks it would not be a difficult matter to feed the antelope and sheep, as their winter range is close to Fort Yellowstone. He places the number of antelope in the park at about one thousand. The mountain sheep have increased considerably in number in the past year and there are now over one hundred in the park. The bear seem to be about as numerous as a year ago. They have done no harm to any one during the past season. The deer seem to be increasing more rapidly than any other game in the park, at least they are becoming tamer and more fearless than any other species. The new buffalo herd which is under the immediate charge of C.J. Jones, is doing exceedingly well, but the increase in the herd this year was not as great as was hoped for. Major Pitcher says it is of the greatest importance that the boundary lines of the park, in addition to being surveyed, should be so thoroughly marked as to render it impossible for any one to cross the line without knowing that he has entered the reservation. Haire Upon Horses' Lips. The fine hairs about the mouth of the horse are organs of touch of extreme delicacy. They serve, to a certain extent, the same purpose as our finger ends, the whiskers of the cat or the trunk of the elephant. Sensitiveness is due to specially developed endings of nerves in the skin, which are continually sending messages to the brain. The lip hairs of the horse first receive the stimulus, which is communicated to the end organs and so passes on to the brain. They come into play when the horse samples a new article of food. He first smells it and, having so far satisfied himself, touches it delicately with those sensitive hairs. The upper lip moves softly in quick sympathy and confirms the opinion suggested by the hairs. The tongue judges finally as to the fitness of the food. When the horse wishes to drink, these hairs assure him that the water is free from foreign matter on the surface, for he drinks from the surface only. They detect the smallest particle of dirt and guide him to the purest place. Best Kind of Proof. "Here!" exclaimed the frate customer to the trunk dealer. "I thought you said that chest I bought of you was moth proof?" "Well," said the dealer. "Wasn't it?" "No! When I opened it my things were full of moths!" Great Scott, man! What better proof of 'em do you want?"—Browning's Magazine. Money and Brains. A newly arrived westerner was confronted in a street of New York late at night by a ruffian with leveled revolver, who made the stereotyped demand, "Give me your money or I'll blow your brains out." "Blow away," said the westerner. "You can live in New York without brains, but you can't without money." British Emergency Ration. Every soldier in the British army carries in his haversack what is known as the "emergency ration." This consists of a small tin cylinder, similar to a pocket spirit flask, divided into two compartments. One of these is filled with four ounces of cocoa paste, and the other contains a similar quantity of concentrated beef (penmican).
