electon two years ago. If the republicans have not a clear working majority of 1500 in Orange county this year, we miss our guess. Before this form goes to press, we must refer to the tacit agreement entered into by the candidates, that the first one caught trying to make a trade with a democratic candidate will be "bawled off the ticket." We have had trades in politics in Orange county before, but there will be none this year. The first man caught in a trade, let him be "bawled out" sure enough. SIBERIAN HOSPITALITY. A Charming Visit, With a Somewhat Terrifying Climax. Detained at the Siberian village of Krivochokovo, M. Jules Legras remembered that he had a letter to a notable of the place and hastened to present it. M. Gautier in his book on Russia describes in M. Legras' own words the cordial hospitality with which he was received and also tells of the difficulty which concluded his charming visit. "They had detained me till 10 o'clock in the evening," he writes, "by repeating, 'Why are you in a hurry?' and I was on the point of making my departure when I heard the mistress of the house say in a low voice to her husband, 'Shall I send for the carriage?' To which he replied, 'No.' At this word a shiver passed over me. Doubtless this host, who had made me send away the coachman, was unaware of what his refusal meant, else he would have said to me, 'Here is a sofa; sleep here.' "My situation was perilous, but what could I do? At the end of a few moments I rose to take my leave, and having asked if I could get a cab, was THE FLYING TRAIN There seems to be really left of Mr. Sherwood. winded, and seems sparring. Yet while there is nothing published screed, a brief rite some of his statements may while, even though the warm. Mr. Sherwood avered conviction that we "lie" when he "was fired from the competent tunnel work up." He adds: "The facts are that I was by Kellogg as engineer, with my seat as director or so year or more before this; nels were not built until ward." Nonsense! This man acted as engineer while yet at the board, and the record that he was in charge of in river canyon. This worry. Sherwood approved its rectors subsequently rejected port. The board refused to work, and Sherwood's report it came near bringing them into a lawsuit. The company frequently had to complete with Engineer Kellogg in case We shall not permit Mr. Sherwood the issue. Sherwood dulge his puny fancy by renaming uncomplimentary term shall pin him to the facts other cases. We again as was the engineer in charge nel work, and was incorp for incompetency. We put ment squarely before him lenge him to disprove it ords. We have proven that a liar so often that it is not again detect him at his old. He declares his report for Yorba reservoir site was " ture when I heard the mistress of the house say in a low voice to her husband, 'Shall I send for the carriage?' To which he replied, 'No.' At this word a shiver passed over me. Doubtless this host, who had made me send away the coachman, was unaware of what his refusal meant, else he would have said to me, 'Here is a sofa; sleep here.' "My situation was perilous, but what could I do? At the end of a few moments I rose to take my leave, and, having asked if I could get a cab, was met with the reply that at this hour none could be obtained. "Krivochokovo is a village whose population constitutes the very flotsam and jetsam of Siberian civilization. The village has neither streets nor lights nor police. It is considered a cutthroat spot, where honest people shut themselves tight at night. "I had neither stick nor revolver, and I had on me a large sum of money. Finally, I was ignorant of the exact position of my inn, situated over a mile away. First of all, dogs threw themselves upon me. I shook them off and started as best I could. "The night was inky black. Amid the irregular clusters of houses there was no regular street by which to guide myself. As I hesitated I heard a 'Who is that?' It was a watchman of a pile of wood who hailed me. He directed me, and, giving me a large branch that would do as a stick, he said: 'You are wrong, barine, to go about this way without a revolver. The place is not safe. May God protect you!' "As I approached another cluster of houses a watchman sounded his rattle menacingly and dogs flew at me savagely. When this watchman approached I induced him to accompany me. He informed me that the evening before a traveler who was staying at my hotel, having started early to catch a train, had been assassinated about ten paces from there. Finally we reached the inn. It took a long time to make them open the door, but I finally got inside and reached my room, trembling with fever and fatigue, and fell down helplessly, only conscious of having passed an hour and a half whose remembrance will remain with me long. As for my so amiable host, whose hospitality might have cost me my life, he will doubtless never know of this adventure." Macedonia.

This lacks clue we read on: "I have stated that I had definite purpose' in making ment, which was to pass matter up to some recognition in this line of work with our consent of the board: a pose was accomplished.

From his report at that time and now water office, we quote as f "In general, we find that age depth of twenty-five feet surface, on the propose there is a stratum of tough low clay about fourteen feetness, underlaid with fine we did not penetrate more feet." Nothing vague or ind that. And again: "Borings made in the reservoir 400 and 800 ft the dam line and at other indicate that this strutu continuous and unbroken of the reservoir site." with fever and fatigue, and fell down helplessly, only conscious of having passed an hour and a half whose remembrance will remain with me long.

Macedonia, the land of the three streams, Vardar, Struma and Vistritsa, is hemmed in by lofty mountains, of which the best known or the highest are Olympus, Shardagh and Rhodope, the last named rising to between 8,000 and 9,000 feet above the level of the sea. It is among the most picturesque countries of Europe, abounding in magnificent forests, which climb hills, fringe rivers and cover islands; in wild mountain scenes, wonderful waterfalls, silent, sailless lakes—an appropriate setting for gems of emerald islets, deep gorges, dizzy mountain paths, smiling plains and desolate passes, which ought to prove an irresistible attraction to the traveler who regards genuine danger and real discomfort as the appropriate condiment of pleasure. We like best to call SCOTT'S EMULSION a food because it stands so emphatically for perfect nutrition. And yet in the matter of restoring appetite, of giving new strength to the tissues, especially to the nerves, its action is that of a medicine. Send for free sample.

Yet this unspeakable person has been able, by devious ways and specious pretexts, to stay the work upon this enterprise for four years! If it was really the purpose of this man to pass the matter up to an engineer of competent authority, why did he accept the company's money to himself report favorably upon it? If the work was to be so difficult and costly, why did he accept the stockholders' money to approve it? If his present statement be true, he was lying to the directors and the stockholders in 1902, and how are we to tell that in the coming time he will not turn about and solemly declare that he was lying in 1906? His approval of the site while filling the responsible position of the company's engineer was emphatic, complete and satisfactory. His opposition to it now is lame, specious and untenable. Let work upon the enterprise proceed, for the good of all the irrigators, and for the good of the company, which this man certainly has not at heart. And let this preposterous simian on the flying trapeze be dismissed from further consideration. New Jury Drawn The following names have been drawn for a jury to try the damage case of Stevens vs. the Fairchild-Gilmore-Wilton company, which comes up July 16th: W. R. Allen, Jacob Witmer, W. R. Cubbon, Geo. Peabody, W. O. Manning, L. P. Drake, Sherman Buck, J. J. Courreges, R. B. Wardlow, C. S. Hubbard, A. H. McCullom, Owen Handy, Geo. F. Jessen, F. M. Gist, Edward Schneider, O. A. Boyington, Dan Dominguez, Mit Phillips, A. B. Tiffany, T. J. Alexander, T. Billings, Robt. Flook, Max Nebelung, F. E. Bangs, John Landell, C. S. Holt, Low R We again assert that he engineer in charge of this tunnel, and was incontently fired competency. We put this state-squarely before him, and chalim to disprove it by the recorder. We have proven this man to be so often that it is nothing new to detect him at his old game. Claims his report favoring the reservoir site was "punitive and intent." This lacks clearness, but on: We stated that I had a 'certain purpose' in making this state-which was to pass the whole up to some recognized expert line of work with the unanimement of the board; and that purposely accomplished. The state-self is so vague and devoid of what to mean nothing at all. It prefer to a dam four feet high. I had in mind, however, as to liability of building a safe dam considerable height was that it necessitate building a strong wall in the center connected to blue clay at least thirty feet the surface, and extending far the hills on each side. This work is so costly and difficult as to be active; and this fact I expected to own in the expert's report." Is altogether the most ridiculet statement yet made by this artful writer. His report was so "vague and of detail as to mean nothing?" Once again devote a moment to bring what it said: July, 1902, while engineer of the board, this man prepared a re-writing upon the Yorba reserate, approving it completely, upon it was soon to begin, and directed to be in charge of conon. From his report as submit that time and now on file at the office, we quote as follows: General, we find that at an average of twenty-five feet below the floor, on the proposed dam line, is a stratum of tough bluish yellow about fourteen feet in thick underlaid with fine sand, which is not penetrate more than two inches vague or indefinite about And again: Wings made in the bottom of reservoir 400 and 800 feet north of line and at other places would be that this stratum of clay isrous and unbroken in this part reservoir site." Betrothals In Holland. In certain parts of Holland when a young man thinks he loves a girl he asks her for a match to light his cigar at the door of the beloved one's home. This is done to let the parents know that something is intended, and if the visit is repeated and the same thing occurs no doubt is left in the minds of the girl's parents, and they immediately proceed to investigate the young man's character and antecedents. When he calls a third time, they are prepared to give him an answer. If his suit is looked upon favorably, he is given a match. If refused, he produces his own match, lights his cigar and walks away. If a favorable answer is given, he steps forward and joins hands with the girl. While the engagement is by no means a settled fact even at this important stage, it is stated as a truth that if, on the occasion of the young man's third visit, his inamorata offer him a second cigar and he smokes it in the house the engagement is never canceled. Siam's Royal City. Perhaps the queerest city in the world is that of Nang Harm, the home of the royal family of Siam. This city's peculiarity lies in the fact that it is composed of women and children alone. It is in the center of Bangkok, has high walls around it, and in its population of 9,000 there is not a single man, though the king occasionally pays a visit. The name Nang Harm means "velled women." There are shops, markets, temples, theaters, streets and avenues, parks, lakes, trees and flower gardens, a hall of justice, judges, executioner, police, generals and soldiers, all the positions, official and otherwise, being filled by women. The only man in all Siam who can enter this city is the king. It is the home of his family and of the family of the king before him. The ruler of Siam may have as many wives as he pleases. Each wife... is a stratum of tough bluish yellow about fourteen feet in thick underlaid with fine sand, which is not penetrate more than two inches vague or indefinite about And again: ings made in the bottom of reservoir 400 and 800 feet north of line and at other places would be that this stratum of clay is loose and unbroken in this part reservoir site." ing "punitive" or insufficient what, so far as we can see.

The only man in all Siam who can enter this city is the king. It is the home of his family and of the family of the king before him. The ruler of Siam may have as many wives as he pleases. Each wife has her own children and slaves—therefore a small city is needed to provide accommodation for them all. A Wise Man. "I noticed after you left the house this morning you went back again.
