SANTA BARBARA, Sept. 7.—The
Channel city has a splendid outlook. An
era of im niacin en t recently in prospect
has assume.' definite shape and action
has followed tale. Summer visitors have
vastly increased during the past week
and plans are already being discussed for
the suitable entertainment of winter
guests. It is the practice here to dispose
of preliminary details tar in advance.
The advantages of this section are being
widely advertised e.ist of the Rockies,ana
therefore, when the Raymond excursions
begin to come, all will have been in read
iness. The new cottages, additional
hotel facilities and substantial improve
ments are already actual facts and con
tinue in a degree hitherto unknown in
this erstwhile quiet resort.
Garden street is being transformed into
a beautiful driveway. Grading contin
ues unabated, ungainly trees are being
removed and shady pepper boughs
trimmed.
J. A. Matbis, a building contractor,
has put a force of men at work on tbe
corner of Anapamu and Santa Barbara
streets for the erection of several cottages,
to be owned by J. Ooldstone of San Fran
oisco.
Howard Longley >nd J. C. Crandall,
two artists from Pasadena, are busy tak
ing scenes from our surroundings. Views
in this vicinity are so picturesque that it
is quite common for descriptive writers
on Mexico and other places to attribute
I them to those localities.
Contracts have been let for the new
business block to be known as tbe Fith
ian building. The successful bidders
were William Poole, basement work; F.
Fern, brick and terra cotta; Thomas
Hi,gun, cut stone: Kd wards & Boeseke,
plumbing, and Peel & Shaffer, painting.
This structure, when complete, will bs
tbs most imposing in tha city.
By order of the council, tbe mayor baa

appointed City Engineer J. K. Har
rington, K. S. Sheffield and Councilman
N. D. Smith as a committee with fnlt
power to act in tbe matter of tunneling
and boring for wells preparatory to ob
taining an abundant water supply. Tbe
gentlemen named were instructed to
adopt the suggestions of the committee
of.six which is making a thorough in
vestigation of the subject.
The chief of the fire department and
the city engineer have submitted an
elaborate report with complete details re
garding a tire alarm system. These offi
cers are in communication with a supply
company, and it is now certain that this
much-needeu improvement will be forth
coming.
Rev. E. F. Dinsmore, pastor of the
Unitarian cbucrb, delivered a very in
structive and entertaining lecture last
evening to the students of tha business
college.
Awe kly paper to be known as tbe Ad
vance will soon make its appearance at
Summerland. Two jounrals and several
new oil wells will surely accelerate the
progress of tbat interesting town.
M. ™. Burke, administrator of the e»
ate of Joaquin Fernandez, deceased, to
day sold twenty-five head of horses. The
auction took place at Santa Maria, and
ths stock brought fair prioes considering
the low value of animals at present.
We note the following amusements for
next week: Grand spectacular carnival
Monday evening; the I'.oss ,«ti!tman Dra
matic company performances on Wednes
day. Thursday and Friday evenings.
The new gas works will lie of an exten
sive character. Large quantities of brick
are daily delivered at the yards anil
operations are going on in earnest.
The local members of the Salvation
Army seem to be an enterprising set.
Tbey own comfortable quarters ana are
instituting a number of refcrmt,.
The kindergarten opens with cighty
five children, but as great efforts aru be
ing put forth on behalf o' this institution
the;nmnber wil no doubt largely increase
in a few days.
Results in Los Angeles have fed our
citizens to inquire, "Cannot kerosene be
also produced from Snnimerland oil?' 1 At
any rate investigations will be made to
determine the quality and capabilities of
this industry.
JThe remonstrance against the purchase
of tha toll road finds numerous signers.
This matter will be considered by the
board of supervisors at their special meet
ing next week.
Miss M. Dana of San Luis Obispo, who
has been visiting friends at Santa Ynez,
leavea for home tomorrow.
The assessed valuation of property in
this county is higher than last year. The
state, county, road and school rate will
be over $2, consequently the taxes for
1895 will be somewhat more than in 1894.

SANTA lIMIM
SANTA MONICA, Sept. 7.—There has
been no very perceptible decrease in vis
itors during the past week, and everyday
lias been one of gaiety. The Aicndia is,
as usual, the center of interest during the
evenings, while the Hotel Jackson is a
close second. Everyone who comes here
seems to lie awake nights to devise new
forma ot amusement, und the exhibition
of invontive genius is remarkable in the
extreme. Quite the latest invention is
the product of tue bright brain of oharm
ing Miss Scott of San Oiego. It is a
ghost story seance, and the writer was
fortunate enough to attend the first one,
Reinhart waa let into the secret and he
very kindly turned over one of the spa
cious rooms on the parlor rlojr. The
lights were ordered turned down and a
huge (platter of salt and a bottle of al
cohol' was obtained from some source.
Mines, Boron Jacobs, A. C. Bartels,
Pruce, Misses Jacobs and Scott and
Messrs. Pruce, Richardson and Polk en
tered the room and the salt disb was
placed on the table. Miss Scott poured
the alcohol on it and struck a matoh. A
sickly bine tlame was the result. As the
spectators gathered around the table the
light caused a ghastly, morgue like hoa
to suffuse their entertainers. Then in
awful tones Miss Scott began the recital
of a most bloid-congealing story, ana so
realistic was tbe scene tbat Mrs. Jacobs
fled precipitately from the room and
could not be induced to return. One of
the gentlemen present then told In a
thrilling and melodramatic manner how
he had seen six persons hacked to death
in as many minutes. Mrs, Prnoe inter
rupted the story with such remaiks as
"You horrid wretch" and "Fiend in
carnate," but as she stayed to tbe last
the story teller waa not phazed. It was
a scene worthy Dante's best efforts, and
those present votid it a great success.
Next morning they met to relate their
dreams, and Mrs. Bartelcs declares that
a band ol savages, In war paint and
armed with tomahawks, pursued ber all
night. Similar dreams were enjoyod by
all the rest.
The bicycle craze is on tbe increase and
nearly every woman wears bloomers.
The popularity of these garments is
evinced on every hand, and a charming
little widow of Los Angeles was heard
to make the lather startling assertion
that she "just hated clothes a.id corsets
but aaoreu bloomers." Bloomers arc not
worn for wheaing alone, ana several gar
ments of the bloomer type are seen every
day on the beach. They are worn for
bathing suits, and stockings are tabooed.
This costume caused a deoided sensation
when it first appeared, but it is now
quite the thing.
Fish dinners are just as popular as
ever, and nearly every night a party is
made up to enjoy one. They are nearly
I always accompanied by immeasurable
quantities of wine, and a party recently
became s> delighted with the dinner
thai one of the ladies lost her slippers,
lovhs nnd purse. Another was minus
her bonnet. After the dinner they went
down on the bsaoh and sang songs till
daybreak.
The moon has been at ber best for the
past week and moonlight dinners are
very popular. George H. Oraves of New
York, who has been in Honolulu for
several months and who is now a guest
at the Aroadia, tendered a moonlight
drive to a party of guests last Tuesday
night. But the eclipse defeated the
moonlight part of the drive, and Mr.
Graves was unmercifully guyed by bis
guests for inviting them' to a moonlight
drive when ha knew there was an eclipse.
He excused himself by declaring that he
wished them to see tbe eclipse from the
carriage. Those in the party were Misses
Scott and Maxwell, Messrs. Richardson
and Graves. Mrs, Bartels of Denver
chaperoned tbe party. Tbe soldiers'
home was visited and refreshments were
served at ths Aroadia after the drive.
Horseback riding has become exceed
ingly popular, and every saddle horse in
town is in demand. Miss Scott is an
enthusiastic and daring horsewoman,
and performed a daring feat tbe other
day. Sbe was riding with Mr. Richard
son on tbe beach, and he dared her to
rida the horse up the stairs from the
beach. There are three nights of a dpxeu
ateps each, and it waa not an easy task to
perform. Miss Soott, however, boldly
rode nip the stairs wbile her escort looked
on in surprise and fear.
Everyone is looking forward eagerly to
the races next week and a large crowd
will no doubt be in attendance!

STUDIED GERMAN WITH LINCOLN
Or. A. W. French ii a collector of
Lincoln literature—as well as an anti
quarian collector in general, with a pref
erence for lirst editioni and a zest for tha
rare.
"I took German lessons with Lincoln,"
aaid tbe doctor, briskly brushing the dust
from his last acquired copy of some old
work. "A profasaor of languages came
along bars from Philadelphia and we got
up a class in German for him. I don't
remember anything we learned at tbat
time. Lincoln told so many stories that
We laughed at them instead of studying
tbe lesson, I am afraid. Xo, I don't
think he made a very apt scholar,though
he probaoly leurnod as much as any of
tbe rest of us.
"The traits of the nan's ebnTaoter that
impressed ma most when I knew him.
and whicb have most impressed ma since
were his simple honesty and bis determi
nation. I don't believe he ;could have
been made to give up anything on wbicb
he set his mind. He never got excited
and never atormed around, but he was
resolute. He was very pleasant, very
agreeable to get along with. He never
Bang that I know of. No, I never heard
him wnistle; 1 suppose he oould, but I
never heard him.
"He never seemed to want] money and
yet he wag not a rich man. He owned
that house and lot on Eighth street when
he was elected, and I suppose that it was
the half of his fortune. He could n't
have opened much of a 'barrel.' I sea
the Tribune of Chicago says in speaking
of tbe death of Yolk, tbe sculptor, tbat
bis bust of Liner In was the only one
taken.from life. But tne Jones bnst,
which was taken here in 1860, was car
tainly from life. We all thought it would
be tha historical bust of Lincoln ; but
some seem to have favorsd ths Yolk bust.
Here is a copy of tbe Jones bust."
Tbe copy is life size, singularly suc
cessful as a likeness and admirably mold
ed. Tha abundance of hair possibly
makes the upper and back portions ol the
head to appear larger than they should,
but aside from that the work is excellent.
"I was instrumental in getting up a
subscription for Jones und went with him
to tbe top floor of the St. Nicholas two or
three times when Lincon bad sittings.
Tbere is a beard, you will notice, and it
is neatlyitrimmcd as in the Hessler pho
tograph of 1860."
"It is the same in thia respect as tbe
portrait in oil done by Healy, tha great
artist whom Judge Thomas B. Bryan of
Chicago sent to Springfield just after the
election of 1860, with a commission to
paint tbe portrait.
"Here is another rare paper, and In
Lincoln's own handwriting, too," con
tinued the doctor. "It is a transcript of
the record of votes at tbe elections in
Sangamon county for state representative
for the years 1832, 1834 and 1836. Of
course, at tbat time anyone who wanted
to make tbe race could be a candidate.
There weie seventeen candidates in 1832.
Lincoln stood eighth on the list. That is,
seven men received each a greater num
ber of votes than he did. In 1834 be was
second on tbe list, and was elected. And
in 1836 he was first.
"He was living at the Globe tavern at
the time Robert was born. I met him on
the street the morning of that event and
he told me about It. And then he ran

His Worthless Llle
For many years past a tall, well-built
and dignified man has traveled as a tramp
all over the New England states, but
principally in Maine. He lirst made his
appearance as a tourist shortly after tho
close of the lute war, in whicli he is be
lieved to have served. Ho then gave his
name as Harry Villiers, but this has al
most been forgotten by the many thous
ands wbo know him almost entirely as
"the king of the tramps." Viiliers is not
by any means the ordinary hobo—dirty,
thieving and insoleot. lie is rather a.
genteel and easy going idler, evidently
well eduoated, sociable and a capital con
versationalist, except on the topic of his
own history, regarding which he main
tains obstinate silence. From the occas
ional remarks he has made it is clear
that before coming to this country he
served in the lintisb army, and milnv a
story he bas related of life in her
mnjssty's service, always, however, with
oare to oonvev the idea tbat he is telling
of other men's experiences.
Villiers is known to everybody as a
happy-go-lucky wanderer, a man who
never did any hard work and wbo vet

up by a neighbor. He is bruised on nearly
every inch of his body, has a lump on
his head, a cut on his forehead, and one
wrist wrenched, but be declares tbat ha
will break tbat colt in a few days.—New
