THE STONE BREAKER. An Example of Content in Honest but Monotonous Toll. In my country of Alsace, on the solitary route whose intermittable ribbon stretches on and under the forests of the Vosges, there is a stone breaker whom I have seen at his work for thirty years. The first time I came upon him I was a young student setting out with swelling heart for the great city. The sight of this man did me good, for he was humming a song as he broke his stones. We exchanged a few words, and he said at the end, "Well, goodby, my boy, good courage and good luck." Since then I have passed and repassed along the same route under circumstances the most diverse, painful and joyful. The student has nailed his course; the breaker of stones remains what he was. He has taken a few more precautions against the seasons' storms—a rush mat protects his back and his felt hat is drawn further down to shield his face. But the forest is always sending back the echo of his valiant hammer. How many sudden tempests have broken over his bent back, how much adverse fate has fallen on his head, on his house, on his country! He continues to break his stones, and coming and going I find him by the roadside smiling in spite of his age and his wrinkles, benevolent, speaking—above all in dark days—those simple words of brave men which have so much effect when they are scanned to the breaking of stones. From "The Simple Life," by Charles Wagner. A SHREWD OLD LADY. How She Got Her Will Drafted and Fooled Her Lawyer. A certain lawyer, famed for high charges, had incurred the enmity of an old lady on account of the same. Wishing to get even with him, she consulted him about drafting her will. As she was a very wealthy old lady, without near relatives, she had many charitable associations to benefit, and the accurate draft of the will required much patience, skill and time. Among the provisions she made a generous bequest to this lawyer and nominated him executor. After the execution of the will she called for her bill, whereupon the lawyer, with the vision of ample fees in the prospective settlement of the estate and the memory of the generous bequest, told the old lady that under the circumstances he should charge nothing, but finally, to satisfy her business scruples, made out a re- LINCOLN AND LONDON. Tower Dedicated to Our President in an English Church. "With charity for all and malice toward none"—these well known words of the great, brave, sagacious Lincoln—appear in large lettering in the creed of Christ church Westminster road. It is fitting, then, that the imposing tower of this superb structure, costing over £22,000 (£810,000), should be dedicated to the librator of a race. Howland Hill, whose name is linked with the world's great preachers, founded Surrey chapel eighteen years before the close of the eighteenth century. Newman Hall was one of his successors, and under his leadership the church secured this splendid temple and center of Christian service. When the building was still in the hands of the architect Dr. Hall conceived the idea of dedicating the tower to Abraham Lincoln, the unstyled president of the United States, and today within the tower you may read the following inscription: LINCOLN TOWER. Inaugurated 4th July, A.D. 1876, by Sir Thomas Powell Buxton Bart. The memorial stone was laid 9th July 1874. By the American Minister to this country, The cost (£7,000) was defrayed equally by English and American contributions obtained by the Rev. Newman Hall, LL.B. It was built in commemoration of the abolition of slavery effected in 1855 by PRESIDENT LINCOLN; And as a token of international brotherhood. GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST. —St. Nicholas. THE JAPANESE BABY. Showered With Gifts Before It Even Makes Its Appearance. A hundred gifts in various shapes are offered to the baby before its appearance—toys, big ones, of course; pieces of cotton, silk or crepe, invariably with a happy omen in their design; are a joy to the mother. The household will be busy with the baby's dress under the supervision of the grandmother. It will be no slight affair if the baby is a boy—yes, especially if it be the first son. Parties coming with their congratulations will begin to stream into the house the very next morning after the announcement. They will bring dried fish or a box of eggs to express their good wishes, which will be returned in some form of present when the baby is two weeks old. On the seventh day after the birth comes the christening, and rice cooked with red beans—doesn't red mean happiness?—will be sent among the friends in a favorite name since INDIAN INVENTIVENESS. Birch Bark Canoes and Snails Its Best Production. That the North American Indian rose to a high level of civilization be attributed to his lack of interest as well as to his indole improvidence. He reared no structures and constructed newments for the manufacture of things but the smallest scale of use and exchange. This is first glance like a satisfactory test of the undeveloped state civilization. It is nevertheless not true that Indian lacked inventiveness left at least two worthy modes of his capacity for invention; our own civilization has given them from articles of necessity what are practically plaything. These two evidences of the genius are the birch bark cage the snowshoe. For beauty and in the uses for which it was no product of the white moss working with the same materials have surpassed the Indian cane snowshoe, as the Indian desire made it, moreover, is a distillation of art and, like the violin of masters, seems incapable of movement.

Long and oscillatory waves run by gravity, the first agitating the water to nearly the same amount at all depths, while the chief disturbance due to the latter confines itself to the upper layers of the water. These oscillatory waves, the most typical example of which is perhaps furnished by the "swell," or regular rolling waves which continue to run in deep water after a storm, will break on a shelving shore when their height is about equal to the depth of water. When the depth is sufficient to allow the oscillations to proceed unimpeded no progressive motion takes place, each column being kept in its place by the pressure of surrounding columns. If, however, free oscillation is prevented, as by the interposition of a rock or by the shelving of the shore, the columns in the deep water are not balanced by those in the shallower, and thus they acquire a progressive motion and form "breakers." For this reason waves always break against the shore, whatever is the direction of the wind. STature and Illness. According to a paper read by Dr. Shrubsall before the British association, sufferers from tonsillitis, rheumatism and heart disease are of a higher stature, and sufferers from tuberculosis, nervous and malignant diseases of a lower stature than healthy individuals. It appears that blood sufferers from pulmonary tuberculosis respond to treatment better than brunettes, while in diseases of the heart the positions are reversed. It is believed that in successive generations of city life stature shows a progressive diminution and that there is an increase in brunette traits with each generation passing from rural to urban life. With increasing length of residence there is an increase of morbidity among the different classes of Londoners. Changed His Mind. A man of notoriously bad character, residing in a village, wished to emigrate. To obtain assistance from the immigration commissioners one must have a character, and the man accordingly asked one from his neighbors. Everybody was anxious he should go, any everybody therefore testified to his excellent reputation. No one was more astonished at this result than the man himself, and after looking at his certificate, with its long list of signatures, "Well," said he, "I had no idea I was so much esteemed in the neighborhood.

Gibson of Illinois. Mr. Gibson has accepted the call. He has reached Los Angeles, his headquarters, and has taken temporary offices at 508 Laughlin Building. Into his hands fall the interests and direction of all Sunday School work in Southern California. His work will be chiefly in the field, building up the weaker Sunday Schools, strengthening the stronger, and stimulating to renewed efforts, all workers in this particular branch of church organization. The State Association has pledged $2,000 a year to the work in Southern California, and other money will be subscribed for maintaining the work.

Birch Bark Canoes and Snowshoes Its Best Productions. That the North American Indian never rose to a high level of civilization may be attributed to his lack of inventiveness as well as to his indolence and improvidence. He reared no enduring structures and constructed no instruments for the manufacture on anything but the smallest scale of articles of use and exchange. This seems at first glance like a satisfactory explanation of the undeveloped state of his civilization. It is nevertheless not true that the Indian lacked inventiveness. He has left at least two worthy monuments of his capacity for invention, although our own civilization has converted them from articles of necessity into what are practically playthings. These two evidences of the Indian genius are the birch bark canoe and the snowshoe. For beauty and utility in the uses for which it was designed no product of the white man's art working with the same materials could have surpassed the Indian canoe. The snowshoe, as the Indian designed and made it, moreover, is a distinct work of art and, like the violin of the older masters, seems incapable of improvement. It may be argued that these are articles of the simplest kind, but the genius that inspired their invention and construction is none the less worthy to rank with that which manifests itself in our own civilization in works of an simpler but not more beautiful design—Boston Globe. SECRET INK. Writing Which May Be Made Invisible or Visible at Will. There are several ways in which two persons can correspond with each other unknown to even the people before whose eyes the very letter is held. Ovid taught young women when writing to their lovers they should use new milk as ink. This when dried is invisible, but by scattering coal dust or soot upon the paper the writing becomes legible. Ansonius adopted this method when writing to Paulinus. Diluted sulphuric acid, lemon juice, solutions of nitrate and chloride of cobalt or of chloride of copper write colorless, but on being heated the characters written with the first two become black or brown and the latter green. When the paper becomes cool the writing disappears and leaves the paper blank again.

The assessed valuation of the fifteen leading counties is given as follows: 1. San Francisco...$503,053,557 2. Los Angeles...201,509,786 3. Alameda...109,714,598 4. Santa Clara...55,468,822 5.

Its railroad valuation amounts to $2,706,800, while that of Orange county is about half that amount, being $1,451,868. San Bernardino has a railroad valuation of $5,072,719, and San Diego $2,552,183. Los Angeles' railroad valuation amounts to $5,483,057, while that of San Francisco is $161,098, and Alameda $2,242,464. The total valuation of all the counties of the state as given is $1,550,571,761. When reference is made to the geographical area of our two neighboring counties on the east, as compared with that of Orange—San Bernardino being twenty-six times our size and Riverside nineteen times—it will be seen that Orange county holds her own quite well with the other rapidly developing counties of the south.

The carpet had grown dim in the African sun, which deprived it of all royal pretensions, so that when Gordon returned from his governorship of the Sudan and suddenly asked,"Where is my throne?

There are also some inks which are invisible when dry, but visible when moistened with another liquid.

Gambetta's Table. There is a curious story told of the table at which Gambetta wrote. A previous owner, General Lahitte, minister for foreign affairs in 1849, dismissed his confidential servant because he believed he had stolen a large sum of money in 1,000 franc bank notes. Years afterward, when the table had to be repaired, the joiner employed for the work found the missing bundle of bank notes between the mahogany board of the table and the drawers below. They had lain there unnoticed for fourteen years. Unfortunately the story does not go on to say that the poor servant and his mistaken master were alive at the time of the discovery and that the one's character was cleared and the other's confidence restored. Kaiser's Snub of the Bismarcks. The marriage of Count Herbert Bismarck and the Countess Hoyos took place at Vienna, and it was on this occasion that the kaiser took a step which was one of the falsest steps of his life, a step equivalent to the malevolent boycotting of the Bismarcks. By order of his majesty Count Caprivl, the new chancellor, wrote to Prince Reuss, German ambassador at Vienna; "Should the prince (ex-chancellor) or his family make any approach to you pray confine yourself to conventional forms of courtesy. This order is also to be observed by the staff of the embassy. I may add that his majesty will take no notice of the wedding."—London Chronicle.

Wellington Never Touched It After He Become a Field Officer. The Duke of Wellington played the violin as a subaltern, but gave it up when he became a field officer. The reference is made to the geographical area of our two neighboring counties on the east, as compared with that of Orange—San Bernardino being twenty-six times our size and Riverside nineteen times—it will be seen that Orange county holds her own quite well with the other rapidly developing counties of the south. With the railroads now building and in contemplation during the coming year, Orange county is destined to show yet greater progress in the coming twelfemonth. Moreover, the surf electric line connecting Alamitos and Huntington beaches in this county is not included in the controller's figures. Our railroad valuation during the coming year ought to be considerably in excess of $1,000,000. Orange county is fifteenth on the list, yet Santa Cruz, which is placed in thirteenth class, and Meddocino, in fourteenth each have an inferior valuation to that of Orange; Mendocino by two and a half millions, Santa Cruz by more than a million and a half. Orange county may therefore be said to have passed these two northern counties, and is now hot-foot after Solano, twelfth on the list, with a valuation four million dollars greater than our own. With Huntington building 22 miles of electric road in this county, and probably 100 miles of other lines to be constructed in the near future, through La Habra and Placentia and River canyon; with the Standard Oil constructing a large plant here—the only one in Orange county—and with two gas companies actively bidding for a franchise to operate a gas plant in Anaheim, the county of Orange, ever the gem and pride of the southland, may be said to be just beginning its upward flight. It will not rest content until Solano is passed; and then let the other counties ahead of us in property valuation look to their laurels, for we intend to make it interesting for them as sure as we have passed Santa Cruz and Mendocino the past year.

FACTS ABOUT ANAHEIM Sketch of the industries and Resources or the Most Beautiful Part of California. The City of Anaheim, with a population of 2500, is situated in the northern part of Orange county, in Southern California, 12 miles from the ocean, 4½ miles from the foot-hills, and 148½ feet above sea level. It is 27 miles from Los Angeles, the second largest city in the State of California. The climatic conditions are the most favorable for out-door life to be found in Southern California. The temperature is extremely uniform, seldom rising above 90 degrees in summer, or falling below 32 degrees in winter. The abundance of sunlight and the absence of sharp frosts and cold winds make it a place especially acceptable to those desiring to escape the severe climate of the east. The country is very attractive. It is practically level, with just sufficient slope from the hills to afford adequate drainage. The roads are level, well graded, and well kept, affording excellent opportunities for cycling and driving. The soil is a rich sandy loam which never bakes, making it a very easy ground to work; thus lending itself readily to the cultivation of berries, nuts, oranges, etc. The variety of products, and the possibility of procuring small tracts of land at low figures, and on easy terms, make our section of the county very attractive and advantageous for truck raising, or for farming on a small scale. The following are a few of the products: oranges, lemons, walnuts, grapes, peaches, apricots, sugar beets, berries and vegetables of all kinds. Anaheim is the possessor of a Building and Loan Association, Water company, two railroads, fruit cannery and drier, large oil industry, ostrich farm, bank, several adequate yet its irrigated acres exert this jumbo county by approximately ten per cent. It irrigates 25,000 acres on the county on the south as compared with that—almost the irrigated Diego and Riverside county. Orange county possesses system of irrigation; that water rights; that exist California. That is we said many a time and figures prove it. It is best and most productive lies outdoors and is set than any other in the state. The Gazette for Job RENOUNCED THE VIOLIN. Wellington Never Touched It After He Became a Field Officer. The Duke of Wellington played the violin as a subaltern, but gave it up when he became a field officer. The reason for this renunciation is supplied by the following extract from a letter written by Mrs. Stuart Mackenzie to the Duke of Sutherland in 1852: "Every one knows that to the last the duke was fond and a fine judge of music. In youth he was a performer on the violin, that, giving up a great deal of time to it, he began to fear lest the hereditary taste should get the better of him, and in one day he broke the spell, laid aside his violin and never afterward touched it. This circumstance occurred during the time of his early attachment to my dear friend the duchess, who has often repeated it to me with pride as an omen of what was to be expected from his great self command and firmness of decision." It may be added that the Duke of Wellington inherited his love of music from his father, Lord Mornington, who was a doctor of music and a composer of no small merit.—Pearson's. Costly Plashes.

The census bureau has issued a bulletin on agriculture in California which we quote from extensively in another part of this issue. One of the interesting features of the report is the paragraph giving the number of farms and acres of farming lands in the five Southern California counties. The pre-eminence of Orange county is apparent: Counties. No. Farms. Acres. Los Angeles.....6577...895,633 Orange.....2388...569,436 Riverside.....2340...427,097 San Bernardino.....2350...219,132 San Diego.....2698...849,419 But it is in the acreage of irrigated lands that Orange county takes easy precedence over the other counties of Southern California: Counties. Acres. Los Angeles.....85,644 Orange.....41,549 Riverside.....32,947 San Bernardino.....37,877 San Diego.....16,022 The area of Orange county is 780 square miles; that of Los Angeles, 3880; that of Riverside, 7008; that of San Bernardino, 20,055; and that of San Diego, 8400 square miles. Orange county thus contains one-fifth the area of Los Angeles; yet its irrigated lands approach in area to one-half those of its neighbor to the north. Riverside embraces nine times its area, yet it irrigates 9000 more acres. or a fourth more than the belaued county on the east. San Bernardino is 25 times its size, until Dec. 31.

FUHRBERG, Proprietor Los Angeles Beer on Tap ANAHEIM California yet its irrigated acres exceed those of this jumbo county by nearly 4000, approximately ten per cent. San Diego is eleven times its size, yet it irrigates 25,000 acres more than the county on the south—300 per cent is the former's irrigated area as compared with that of the latter—almost the irrigated area of San Diego and Riverside combined. Orange county possesses the finest system of irrigation, the most secure water rights, that exist in Southern California. That is what we have said many a time and oft. These figures prove it. It is the handsomest and most productive county that lies outdoors and is settling up faster than any other in the State. The Gazette for Job Printing.
