edge of the ocean and about 100 feet
above the level of theses. Within 200
yards of the beach are several rugged
rocks projecting from the sea which are
covered every dav with sea Hols, near

So few appointments have beu maoe
by the President this week that a suspic
ion has been created among the crowd
ol offlc. seekers here that the slow pace
has been adopted for the special purpose
ol tiring thorn out. The result is that
many of them have gone home leaving
their papers on file, believing that to be

The President informed a Democratic
Senator that it was his purpose whenever
he bsd to appoint a Democrat to office,
such as one member of the Civil Service
Commission and tbe.Ioterstate Commerce
Commission, to insist npon his being
protectionist. This decision has crested
a panic among the free-trade Demi. -.ratio
aspirants, chief among whom may be
mentioned ex-Secretary of the Treasury
ThomDson. who wants to serve his
country ss a Civil Bervlce Commissioner.

We were passing upiMontgomery street
not thinking ol finding anything se rich
and beautiful when we were suddenly sur
prised by the glistening grandeur ol the
Diamond Palace, owned by Col. Andrewa.
Its floois are of marble, the walls are ot
French plate mirrors framed in pillara of
bony and gold, while the vaults and
arched ceiling are a triumph of the fresco
painters art; the panels overhead an dec
orated with full-length oil portraits of
acriptmral characters, prominent among
tbeia being lather, Deborah, Jeptba'i
daughter, and Delilah. These figures are
tadded with real "gems," giving a bean
tifnl effect that Is quite original, although
I haven't any idea these women ever wore

I picked out a dlamead necklace (that ia

of mine; the price Is $110,000. I did not
take it. All visiton to the diamond palace,
whether they wish to purchase or not, sre
very cordially received by Col. Andrews
and are welcome to Inspect the beauties
and wonders of his establishment.
The Palace Hotel amazes-all visitors. It
occupies n entire block in the center cf
the city and la called by tourists the model
hotel of the world. Ths central court il
luminated by electric lights, Its immense
(lassrorf, broad balconies around It on
every story, lie carriage way and Its trop

artesian wells lurnish the water supply.
