San Francisco ws forrnded on chanco tl chanco of finding placer gold in paying sito and quantity, and the chance that rock veins of ullver aud gold would undo. re. California's pincers, excopt in the mountain-top Lino clay oli:incls, have all been found and saxiptvl clean. The l'omsto:k mines, abandoned or unworked, lejiresont the bent condition of California's gainbliu; Ubor in rock mining. In the vernacular of her card gamblers, California is "played" and San Francisco is "played." For back of the uncertainty of gold ami silver in tho rock lies the most terrib'o of all uncertain tics to a civilized state, tho uncertainty of rain. California cannot count on any crop whatever except grapes and wine. Tacoma, on the other baud, is in the center of the largest and most Yiiluablo lumber forest on tho globa Under neath her is tho best bituminous coal in Amer ica. It outcrops ten miles behind hor. In tho Wilkoson coal field, thirty miles east of her, tho quantity of workable coal iu five veins aggre gating thirty feet, all controlled by the North ern Pacific Itailroad company, and therefore an appendage of Tacoma forever, is estimated to be 'M,700,WO tons. In the Green Kiver Hold, forty-hix miles east of Tacoma, tho rail road company's veins aggregate forty-fivo foot Within a year tho workable thickness of coal tributary to Tacoma, and as good as tho best Pittsburgh, and on or near tho Northern Pa cific's land grant, has been increased by dis covery from '-i7 to Hi feet, and in area in tho Wilkeson field alone from Ir.W acres to ",2i0. And this wealth of perfect coal is carried along tho line of the railroad away over tho Cascade range aud down its eastern slope. Tacoma'a coal is worth ten times over more than all '.hi gold and silver California ever produced an 1 San Francisco trafQcked iu. It will make Tacoma an eternal oity. God mode Ban Fran cisco only a gaudy rioious, hhort-lived gamb ling saloon. From. Tuiotna's coal buukors will go tho coal to bo consumed on tho entire Pacific coast and in the Sandwich Islands. And there is iron ore in Tacoma'a appanage. The Wilkeson coal field is already known to hold an eight foot vein of heniatito, and the Green Uiveo field a twelve feet vein, each con taining sixty per cent of metal. Across the Sound, in tho Olyraptio range, is unlimited m.agneTio ore. It is absolutely certain that Tacoma will lo tho seat of an enormous industry in iron. We do not inventory the copper, gold and argentiferous galena deposits from Ellen ville, on tho oust side of the Cascade range, to tho Mouut Tacoma foothills, west, re ported by reputable milling experts there to abound morn than iu aiiy other part of the United States. In tho waterway from the Pacific ocean to tho Tacoma docks thero is not a bar, rock, reef, or sa;:d ban!:. The entrance to Puget Sound is thirteen wiles wide and 'ij0 feet deep, and this depth and this roominess aro carried l'rom tiiu mouth of the Straits of l'ucato Commence ment' Bay, which is Tacoma's harbor. At her coal docks at low tido tho largest British iron clad could lie without touciiiug bottom. No incoming clipper ship need pay a dollar of pilotage or towage. This unrivalled seaport has a competitor in Portland, O., a seaport R0 inilos from the sea, i up a muddy branch or the Columbia river. There are numerous bars between Portland and the mouth of tho Columbia, which compel costly lighterage. Tho Columbia bar is the "worst on tho face of the earth. It is common for ship? to wait inside a mouth to get safely oit, and for British ships to beat on and off outside, vainly trying to get in, till their crews sicken with scurvy, has been a frequent incident in tho unnatural commerce of Portland. The history of the terrible bar of the Columbia river is" a history of wrecks aud ruinous expensoH for pilotage, towage, lighterago, and demurrage. A railroad run ning north and south through Oregon will bo extended by connection this year to Tacoma. But Tacoma is to have two wheat railroads. The short and straight branch from the Colum bia river valley across the Cascade mountains to Puget sound will carry to Tacoma all the wheat of eastern Washington territory, north eastern Oregon and Idaho. Tacoma will be the greatest grain-shipping port in the world. This Cascade branch, moreover, will immedi ately on its completion, give Tacoma an im mense trade in coal and lumber eastward to tho treeless and fuellcss portion of the Colum bia plains. Her uneiualled position and relations, and the two lines of railroad, from the south and the east, will make Tacoma the local metropo lis of an area of territory larger than thai which includes Chicago, Buffalo, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Louisville and SV Louis, and back to Chicago. Nationally, it will be the entreport and outport for the trade with Japan and China, to which Tacoma is 000 iu ilos nearer than San Francisco is. . Puget Sound is a ravishingly beautiful a'rehi pelago. There is not so loveiy a body of wat f on tho earth. Tourists by tens of thousands will go yearly to Tacoma, to sail on this purple sea, through islands ever green with fig. trees, the purple sea buttresses on the west by the snow peaks of the Olympian range, aDd sen tried on the east by the slumbering volcano. Tacoma, 14,500 feet high, a pyramid of eternal ice and snow, which gives back to the en tranced beholder the revolving light of day and of the moonlit night in every color and shade known to the prism and to art. There is not in all America such a superb spectacle as this snow mountain. And alone of Ameri can mountains it holds in its heart a glacier, as grand and impressive as that of .Mont Blana The time will surely come when our "society mob," which now gbs annually to Switzerland because it is fashionable and English to do so, wdl become sufficiently Americanized to do--i--e to know the geography of its own country. Thou the objective of onr far summer travel will be Tacoma, the purple archipelago, and the Tacoma glacier. Four thonand people are In this new town. The saw mills at Puget sound cannot supply its increasing population's demand for lum ber. They run night and day to meet the im patience of a keen race to "get their stake" be fore September next, and before a flood in real estate values will follow there the com pletion of tho Northern Pacific railroad. Ta coma's coal bunkers already are astonishing for size and rapidity in tilling groat ships. Her grain elevators, grain warehouses, car shops, machine shops, and foundries, built and ordered to be built by the railroad com pany, and the shipyards 'projected, are all on a scale measured to the size of a great city, as well as the needs of the greatest of the trans continental railroads. ' And this qneen of the Pacific will rule in a climate that should make extreme old age the law in Tacoma, aud early death an accident or a fault The climatic record for the past: In 1S- the lowest tem perature was '1 degrees Fahrenheit in Febru ary, and the highest 78 degrees in J uno.

LOUIS E0MAK02, Whirl an Able Iteporter Wrote i'i Out or II lis Own Head. New York Tribuno. A Kt. Louis Poet-Dispatch reporter gave rein to his imagination tho other day and h tailed out for a plcaxaut little excursion. Feeling tho influence of tho spring, however, his imigina tioti soon took tho bit in his mouth and bolted, and tho reporter found himself struggling hopelessly with tho American College at Homo arid a privato yacht ; with a lot of lords ami ladios in F.ngland, aud a gypsum cavo belong iug to Jay Could iu St. JxmiIs; with an execu tion in Alexandria, and a Catholie priest in New York. Ho wan rescued by heroic efforts at tho end of two and three -quarter columns, t ud H reported t. l,c doing as well as could l.c ex pected. The result of his advenluro was ast.ryin brief as follows: James Chest or, sou of Sir Archibald, and a "dmle' of tho first water. Lady Alicia De Yere, sister to Au'.-.vy Do Yore, tho pO"-t, too lively for anything. Young peo ple engaged, of course. James govs off for a year's cruise in his yacht, after leing kissed by tho Lady Alicia and Danto Cabricl Kossetti in the Liverpool Docks. Incidentally he attends a wholesale execution in Alexandria at tho in vitation of his friend the Khndivc, and buys off one of tho criminals for 5,XX). An Ku glish man-of-war comes in, and tho captain gives James a copy of Tho Times, containing the somewhat extraordinary announcement that "his grace the most Jtovrciid Archbishop of York" had married in St. Paul's catheral "the Right Honorable William iAwrencc Hyde, K. C. B., second son of tho earl of Clarendon, and Lady Alicia De Yere." James fainted, and on recovering went to Home, after which, having called on Cardinal Autonelli (who, tho reader will bo surprised ' learn, lived in "the l'ulazza Borgnuni"), he :; terod the American college. In three months ho was graduated and was made professor of theology. After threo yiais he cuiii" t. this city aud was assigned to St. Stephen's church in East Twenty-eighth st Among his other duties ho was chaplain U "tho Convent of the Visitation in Forty-second st.," and tho "Hospital of tho Alextaii Brothers iu Second ave." James (now Father Chester) is called to the Con von t of the Visitation to see a dying nun, Sister Mary Dolores. "Ja des Ch;!st.;ri" shrieks tho nun "Alicia De Yere!"yeils tho priest. Lady Alicia dies and Janins, as usual, faints awBy. It is all a mintaku. It was La.Iy Alicia's firnt cousin who married K. C. B. James goos crazy and retires to a gypsum cave belonging to Jay Could, on tiio outskirts of St. Louis, whore he died last week. In his will he left $.1,X0 to St. Stephen's church in this city, and S'o.tKKi to tho "Convent of the Visitation." Tho cold and cheerless truth is that th'-ro novel' was any "Convent of tho Visitation" iu this city, no "Hospital of tho Alevian Brothers," nor any Father Chester connected with St Stephens Church, Priests who wero educated at the American College i-a Rome say that there was never any such man as James Cheater iu tho college.

The woivs "any book of fiction" would sco'n to include novels of i.U prices, whereas a law against the sale of ten cent stories would not be violated by selling the fame works at nine cents or eleven cents apiece. But what are the books of fiction against which Mr. Uoddard wants to guard the youth of St. Lawrence? "Robinson Crusoe anil "Cinderella," "Tom B:-own nt Rugby" and "David Copperfield," "Polham" and "The New comes?" A more reprint of the parables of our Lord would be a book of fiction, for it was by simple and striking stories that Christ taught aomo of the most impressive lessons to be found in tho scripture. When a man undertakes to deal by Icgisla tinn with the injurious influences of a form of literature which seems occasionally to excite criminal tendencies in youthful readers, he needs to be a man of senso. If ho is such a person, he soon learns that law can do so little in the way of a remedy that it had better let the subject alone. : Emigration to Manitoba. "Winnipeg Telegram to Minneapolis Tribune Should emigration continue as begun, the aggregate this season will be double that of last year. The minimum estimate is put at a hundred thousand people this year. The great bulk are farmers, who aro proceeding west to settle on land. Survey parties aro pouring in from the east to sub-divido tho land into terri tories fr Bottlers. Creat as thj number is, yet it is too small to keep pace with immigra tion. On account of much of the land already laid out being iu tha hands of syndicates, speculators and other monopolists, hundreds of new settlers and oid aro crossing tho bound ary into Dakota since the opening of tho Tur tle .Mountain reserve for hoi.icsteading by the American authorities. Wisdom of IMaut. As an example of the curious property of plants in selecting-.f ront a soil only those ma tenals proper for their nourishment, the ic9 plant, which is fsuiul abuudantiy on the Med iterranean coa8t"3, is one of the most striking. It has lately formed tho subject of some ex periments by M. Mangon, who has cultivated it for many years. Its popular namo is de rived from the little vesicles filled with water wbieh cover its stem, and have much the ap pearance of frozen dew-drops. Analysis shows that it escks up from tha soil a largo quantity of soda, potash, and other alkaline salts ; indeed, it may be said that the plant represents a solution of alkaline ealts held together by a vegetable tissue only, weighing two per cent of its mass. SL Mangon believe that the plant might be use ful if planted on unproductive soils wherfl audi salt9 are in excess, thereby rendering tht ground suitable for ordinary cultivation.

WOMAN AND HOME. llousoliold Uinta end Brevities Women in Journuliam. V'orri'ttlw cf Summer I'uHhioii---Ne-leclinx I'lnurrs lor Sprlus Tlo MIjuiiiIhIi" S onian. "M. II W. H." i.i Demurest".- Monthly. Tho nlie tectith centurv has developed a ometh'ng be' ween a woman and a nrui, which is called a "in, iiiii-.li woman." She t-l.i; s her side and her kuei-s. She affects the luost masculine ,,f ,;itH n,l ulsters; her languago is of tho st.ihhi and the boat lioii-c; sic- do lights iu f l.ti'.v; ; sho wears no gloves, allowing lier hands to grow red and ciaree; she paiti her hair on one side; phe drives the hoi fees for her husband or her lover; and ufks her friends to examine tho biceps muscle iu her arm, to sec how "tough" it is. Sho breaks down tier harrier between rc-q.ect and familiarity, by depriving women of their dearest piivileges care and protection. Who cn care for or protect a mannish wo man ? She strides, she talks loud and defiantly, and yet sho may be affectionate aud -sincern only mistaken, only a little giddy, impulsive, and unfortunate in tho dircciiuu her taste has re oe i ved. It is the dangerous side of a very good thing. Physical culture is an admirable thing. Horseback riding, slating, walking, coast ing, lawn tenuis, tho visits to the Adiron dacks, the sweet communing with nature, all gay, frank, and healthy, and proper acquaint anceship between tho sexes, these things aro certain to improve a woman's licauty and a woman's health. To ho well loved and well married is tiie natural condition of a woman ; to becoiuo ul.-o a useful and strong and self dependent single woman is within her scope. She may study medicine or law, or till pulpit or rostrum, or conduct a newspaper, or be-eom-i the manager of a great bote! ; or she may fill tho diihcul. rolo of a popular actress, even to the playing of parts which, seem to uiisex, without losing her feminine grace, if she b, a true and modi st wom;n. Tlie most modest of women have sometimes been driven to the profession o 1 public dancers and of the varie ty actress, vi none of iheso women aro forced by necesiiiy t. mo belie themselves as does tho "niaini'sh" woman from choice. Tho fashionable world holds the "mannish" woman alnncit exclusively. It may b, lot ua hope that it is, ono of the rapidly changing fashions of this changeful century. This is n certain delicate type of woman, very small, very pretty, very "pining voice she may play at manishness, and bo applauded by men. She may tilt her hat, H'nd i her feet, talk slang, make believe smoke rather as children assume to bo major generals and lord high admirals. The very assumption is witty, and Miggostivo of an absurd contrast. It affects one as does tho sprightly acting of some opera bonrTo actress. It is like Ir. Johnsons definition of wit, the Midden juxta position of antagonistic ideas, but it is danger ous. Woe unto the larger or plainer woman who tries to copy this lit'le man. Their talent t-hould never assay to copy genius. Lot the large mannish woman remember 1hat excel lent maxim of Bnhver's: "Never forget that yon belong; to a hck which cannot afford to be grotesque." Mannishness in woman is, iu brief, a l:id j imitation oi tilings pi nest not worm copying, v I aud which the beat men are gotling-rid of. I YVoi:ie:i in .Journalism. J At Indianapolis Mrs. M.iy Wright Sewall ; gave a lunch in honor of 31 s. Certrude Carri- eon, who will shortly leave the city and friendi the has so long been identified with, for New York City. Mrs. Garrison made tho fuliowi.ig i espouse io the sentiment "Women in Journ alism": As lam out of jov.r:i.!l.v.;i just now, I am not the woman referred lo, mid am in a o-iiion to srcak my mind about the one who is mean'. 'Think of her sacri'icvs? She gives up all that wore once consii h ied woman's most precious possessions and i'ovi s: privii She forcsiikcs the 'fireside " that i:t;b!e insti tution invented by our remote foref.ith-rs on Iiurpose for women to ado.ii a;id look after, .nsiead of the delicate shovel and tongs de signed by heaven for hor fair hands, sho grasps a huge pen and boldly launches her opinions. She is obliged to forego ihe manufacture of the zephyr lions and crotched tidies. She gives up the frying pan; she deserts the wash-tub and hangs "up the dust-brush. She deuiun herself the intimate companion ship of poodles and parrots; she has no timo for gossip and loses her taste for neighborhood quarrels. Sho gets out of her "sphere" an other institution designed for her especially. Oh, there's no end to the sacrifices which the woman in journalism is obliged to make. Aud what does she get in return? Fulsome notices of her ability and overwhelming descriptions of personal appearance iu tho exchanges ; the undying hatred of lm!e minds, tho jealousy of med"iocres; speculation about her age among the women who are not considered brainy; ro mantic little jictious in regard to her personal history in other newspapers; hurts from the heartless, malice from tho mean, srings from tho cowards, aud depressing criticisms repeated to her by fool friends. Vcs, and sho will be spoken of "by tho silly editor as the "fair writer." She w.ll be ask'cd by her next door neighbor, every day or so, v hwt paper she is connected with, and "what name,"' she' writes under? Some women will ask her why the does't do her writing at her Louse, and hint that that would bo the proper thing. If there is anything in tho vapor that sho specially disap proves of, and didn't construct, "and w ouldn't under any circumstances, thy town v.iil unite in giving her the credit of writing it. Her satire will be called spleen, her humor conceit, her logic false, and her force spi'e. Sho will not havo such a rosy time as the man in journalism, but when if is all summed up, if she is in hor rightful ';ivo she wouldn't exchange the pen for the d.i nh:g needle under any circumstances, and f-l;e is LnoyeJ np through ali by the hope that iutime that it will be said of her that she writes liuo a perfect gentleman. She That Itnleth Her Own Kaby. Ida A. Harper in Terro Haute Mail To pass to the subject of babies; how dhTer ently they are managed by different mother, when traveling. On this particular cve:d:'g there were two such striking examples, just in front of us. Ono cam; in rigged out in 'ill sorts of furbelows, feather.--, veil, j weiry, lace collar, eta, and the poor little ba'.y was :;i:ni larly dressed. The first thing i.hn did v. us to slam the child down on a seat and say, "Now, I want yon to sit s'ill and not climb around and get into mischief.1' Of couie the first thing it did was to disobey ordeis. It climbed up to play with some children back of it and the mother pulled It down; it stood up to rub its haii.i i on tho window and f-ho jerked it down again; it slid off on the floor, and she shook it aud put it back on tho heat; it com menced playing with her ribbons and she slap ped its hands. Whatever it wanted to do, she was d .luiiued it should not do. and finally it began o try and she got cross and all the passengers resolved themselves into a body of old bachelors and spinsters who anathematized every baby in existence. Presently the door opened and in came another woman with a bai.-y, a plainly dressed, pleasant faced woman with a chubby baby iu a flannel sack and a knit hood. It rolled" and tumbled about the seat to its h jar 7s content, she only watching to seo that it was not hurt, but not interfering with its play. At last it climbed upon her knee, and, putting loth hands on the back of the seat in iront, le-mel its head on them and tried to go to thp. It was a very uncomfortable position, aim the mother tried to have the baby charge it, but if was determined not to do so. It was ver sleepy and we prepared ourselves for a squaii, but quite the contrary. The mother did tot insist at all, but leaned quietly back and let it alone. First ono little hand would drop oil the eat, then the other, then the head would tall down, but tho mother never moved. Finally, th-5 baby, se"ing for itself that it cou!J not In this way. turned around, of its own accord, nestled np in its mother's arms and was soon eound asleep. Well, we just took off our hats to that wo man.
