A short time afterwards-he gathered what lie said were real mushrooms and ate some of them. lie died very shortly afterwards as the res'ult of being poisoned by the supposed mushrooms. Since then I have shunned them. I thonght the lesson of this mans death was a good one. Itell you it is a very dangerous thing to give advice regarding mushrooms as good or bad ones, poisonous or otherwise.
I Cannot give an opinion, as I have not studied tlie matter. There is very little known of the origin of the mushroom or of wliat it is composed. I TO BUY LOWER CALIFORNIA. Deal is on Between Mexico and United States. Desert Sign Boards Will Soon Be Up.
Mined by the harrowing tales of suffering and occasional dentil of pros jiectors and other (meters in the desert sections of California, the legislature at its last session passed an net, which was approved by Governor Pardee, on March 22, 1005, appropriating metallic guide posts to indicate the distance, direction and location of wells, springs, tanks or other source of water fit for slrinking purposes in the desert sections of California, particularly in the counties of Kern. Ventura, Los Angeles, Inyo, San Bernardino and San Diego. It was provided tluit each county should bear the cxpnse of placing its gfiide posts, ns well ns the expense of placing its inscriptions usin tliein. The purchase and distribution of the guide posts was placed under the man-ngement and control of lie State Department of Highways, the money becoming available May 22 of last year. After duly advertising for bids for supplying the posts the contract was awarded to a Sacramento firm ns well as the perforated inscriptions.
The inscriptions on the sign boards are funned of perforated letters two inches high, each pet fora ion being one-quilt er of an inch in diameter. The hand indexes are also stamped through the metal, and immediately beneath the sign boards is a brass collar bearing in iuicd letters one inch liigh the words Destruction or injury of post State prison offense, the whole combination making a very substantiall guide post. In fact experience has shown that it is the only kind that will withstand the severe conditions of the desert, the ordinary painted or enameled signs lasting but a very short time. Los Angeles Times.

11, He Never Tried to Ro Itutherford Douglas of Lexington, went up the Kentucky river to shoot ducks. At the farmhouse where he stayed over night he picked up a negro hoy six feet two and at least 230 pounds who was to do the retrieving in a boat, says an exchange. When they started before dawn for the ducks feeding place, four miles up the river, Mr. Douglas casually asked: William, can you row? Kin I whut, sub? asked the hay, looking startled. Oh, kin I ro? No-o-o, sub; I aint nevuh tried to ro in all mah life.
Mr. Douglas sighed and rowed the heavy boat and its big cargo upstream. After an hours hard work- he arrived at the blinds, stepped ashore and took his gun. The hoy picked up the oars and started for the re-triexing point at a high rate of speed. Mr.
Douglas watched the powerful, smooth expert strokes, and looked at his own hands, hli-tered and bleeding from the unusual exercise. William! he roared Come back here! You black rascal how dared you tell me you didnt know how to row? O-o-oh, is dat whut yo meant, suh? the hoy asked. You know perfectly well what I meant, cried the angry man. Oh no, suh; no suh; scuse me, boss, apologized William with a slow sad smile. Wen you axed me dat queshn about roin I thought yo wuz axin wher I could ro like a lion.
man, mid she, owing the hanker a role of $10, went to the hank and paid the note. The hanker recognized the bill as the one lie had found, and which, up to that time had paid $50 of debt. On careful investigation he discovered the hill was counterfeit. Now will some of our friends tell us wliat has been lost in this transaction, and by whom? Kansas City Journal. For social as well as economic reasons a tariff war would be unpleasant for the Cnited States, hut if sufficient provocation should he offered, congress might lie tempted to decline it.
This is a very large question, however, and should he discussed sanely and in all its aspects before concrete action, is taken. Leslie's Weekly. Bryan and the Chinese. William .1. Bryan in Success Magazine: I made it a point to inquire among the Chinese whom I met, in order to ascertain the real sentiment back of the Inn cot t.
I had heard of students being subjected to harsh regulations at ports of entry, of trauDrs humiliated by confinement in uncomfortable sheds, and of merchants treated rudely, and I supposed that these things had aroused the resentment. I found, however, that the things complained of were more difficult to deal ith and the concessions demanded impossible to grant. In order to understand the boycott one must know something of Chines history. As China lias never had representative government the people have been compelled to bring their complaints before officials by petition; and, where the petition has been ignored, they have been accustomed to bring such pressure to bear as was within their power, and the boycott has often been resorted to as a means of compelling action upon the part of officials. They therefore conceived the idea of a boycott against American goods for the double purpose of urging their own government to favorable action and of calling the attention of the American government to their complaint.
Our officials are doing what they can to convince the Chinese government of the injustice and folly of the boycott, and the Chinese officials with whom I conversed seemed anxious to' co-operate with our minister and consuls. Imme MEXICO CITY, March 30. It is reported in official circles that the Mexican government is preparing to open negotiations looking to the sale of Lower California to the United States. Interest in the propostition is especially keen in the territory concerned. Advices received from La Paz and other places in Lower California say there will be little it' any opposition to such a transfer.
There are several mining companies in the peninsula which are operated by Americans. They are especially desirous that the Stars and Stripes shall float over the territory. A Boston corporation is among the largest of the land owners. A majority of the principal however, and much of the lands of Lower California are in the hands of foreigners. The valuable pearl fisheries, located along the eastern coast, are controlled by a British corporation.
A French concern owns a copper mining industry which is the most important single concern in the peninsula. Real Estate Transfers. Florence Vandever to David S. Martin, March 26, 06, lots 1, 2 and3, blk. 152, Tulare.

38, Porterville. Louis Weber to Leonard A. Coburn, Nine-tenths of the Republicans of the country want the tariff to stay untouched a while longer; and probably three-tenths of the Democrats agree with them. Therefore the tariff will stay till a more convenient season. We all agree that that must came.
The only question is how soon. Lebanon, (N. II.) Press. Who Was the Loser. A banker going home for his dinner saw' a $10 bill on the curbstone.
He picked it up and took the number home in order to find the owner. While at home his wife remarked that the butcher liad sent a bill amounting to $10. The only money be had with him was the bill lie had found, which he gave to her and slie paid the butcher. The butcher paid it to the farmer for a calf and the farmer paid it to a merchant, who in turn paid it to a washwo Burbank not Sure About Mushrooms. SANTA ROSA, Luther Bur-bank was asked tonight how to tell mushrooms that are not poisonous.
Mr. Burbank replied: I do not use mushrooms, as I am somewhat afraid of them. I know nothing about mushrooms anyway.
