Visitors to the conservatory in Golden Gate Park may get a glimpse of a real fairyland, for the majestic Victoria Regia water-lily is in bloom, and the stiff little circular pond is transformed into a spot of singular beauty by the gardener’s art. At no time in the history of the park has the Victoria lily reached such a perfect state of adolescence as at present. Gar- dener Cole, who has charge of the exotics, claims that it will blossom to-day and that the plant will then be seen at its best. Indeed such mighty leaves were never be- fore seen to float upon water in San Fran- cisco. There are twelve of them, great circular vessels of living color. Two or three measure just five feet in diameter and have projecting upright rims fully six inches high. Their structure shows through the greenin lines of a yellowish tinge, describing a series of geometric figures as truthfully as the spider’s web, though theé girders and trusses of the leaves underneath are unseen. The leaves have spread almost entirel{ over the pond, forcing back to the wall the beautiful flowers and leaves of the Nympbhia, of the Duke (or Duchess) of Devon, and make a dgsplny that deeply impresses all who see them Friday last a spiked bulb was peeping above the water like the head of an ugly creature of the sea, but it contained a flower, the equal of which for size, colors and the extraordinary characteristic of changing its hues from deep, vivid purple to pure white through a series of grada- tions in pinks is unknown. —————— AN INSURANCE SUIT.

It Selzed Hold of Miss Mary E. Look’s Trousers and Bit Her Severely. 8. Korper, fur manufacturer, 916 Market street, is the owner of a dog that hasa de- cided antipathy to bloomers, which it manifested on several occasions. He and the dog were on Golden Gate avenue last Sunday when Miss Mary E. Look of 405 Geary street rode past on her bicycle, attired in a neat-fitting bloomer costume. Korper’s dog eyed her grimly and ma- liciously for a moment and then made a rush at her. The dog sprang at her and seized the wide trousers in its teeth. Miss Look screamed with fright, and ir her ex- citement jumped off her bicycle. The dog still held on to the trousers and kept tug- ging at them. Finally Miss Look uttered a piercing snriek of pain. The dog had inserted its teeth in her le%l Korper rushed at the dog and released Miss Look from her unpleasant predicament. Korper was profuse in his apologies, but Miss Look was too indignant and hurt to accept them, and informed him that she would sue him. She found out that the dog was not licensed and accordingly swore out a warrant in Judge Conlan’s court for Korper’s arrest on the charge of allowing an unlicensed dog to run at large. The case was heard by Judge Conlan yesterday morning. Miss Look gave her evidence and Korper was put on the stand. Prosecuting Attorney Morgan asked him if his dog had any particular objection to bloomers, and he replied that he sup- posed &o. The Judge convicted Korper and or- dered him to a’};ur for sentence to-mor- Tow morning. “Bring the dof with you,” seid the Judge, “‘but kindly leave him in the office of the Prosecuting Attorney, as I don’t desire to have a dog that has such an aversion to bloomers to appear in court. I will then decide what to do with the animal.” JOHN 8. DOE'S ESTATE, The Executors Ask for Permission to Sell Property at Market and Taylor Streets. Bartlett and Charles F. Doe, executors, rendered their first annual report yester- day of the Jolmn 8. Doe estate. They repre- sent the year’s account to be as follows: Total income, 1145'810 10; disbursements, $115,589 86; cash balance, $30,020 24. A large variety of mining and other stocks included in the inventory are de- clared to be worthless. The executors ask for permission to sell the property belonging to the Doe estate, at the corner of Marketand Taylor streets. John 8. Doe owned u half interest in the Ernperty and the other half is owned by harles 8. Dos. The latter states that he is ready to sell if $600,000 can be obtained for all the property, and it is stated in the report that balf of thatamount hasbeen offered for the John 8. Doe interest. MACDONOUGH TO STAY. He Will Live at Sausalito and Sail the Jessie. Joseph M. Macdonough has decided to live in California and rest from his travels round the world. Mr. Macdonough has one particular fad, pay its depositors in full, and retire from bust. | and that is yachting, which, his friends ness. No action has as yet been taken on the application, but as the bank is in excellent condition the request will probably be ted. The capital stock of the bank s $50.¢ say, comes to him from his father, who died recently in this City. Commodore Macdonough did more, perhaps, than any other man on the bay to foster yachting and the legitimate use of boats in racing. He persistently refused to allow his boats to be entered in races where there were money prizes. A few years ago he built his last boat— the Jessie—with the intention of surpass- ng all other craft on the bay. In dimen- sions the Jessie is the largest yacht on the bay. She is quite up to Joseph Macdon- ough’s idea for an unpretentious summer cruiser, so he has thoroughly renovated the Jessie, which his father used to sail, and put her into commission. THE THIRD'S ELECTION. It Nearly Resulted in the Choice of Major James F. Smith for Colonel. The late election in the Third Regiment, while a unanimous one, was not without opposition” before the ballot was taken. Lieutenant-Colonel J. C. O’Connor was elected by the vote of every line and field officer present, but had Major James F. Smith consented torun the result would have been widely different. Smith was the choice of a caucus before the meeting, and when the election was held and nomi- nations were called for Smith’s name was proposed and seconded. Twice Smith got up and declined the nomination, but the nominator refused to withdraw the name and his second sup- ported him. Colonel Macdonald, who presided at the election, ruled that unless the name was withdrawn he would have to recognize Smith as_a candidate, and as his nomina- tor would not withdraw it the ballat.com- menced with Smith and O’Connor:in the field. When it came to the vote, however, Smith’s friends decided to take down his name and submit it for the lieutenant- colonelcy, so O’Connor was elected with- out opposition. There was another argu- ment over the position of lientenant- colonel, but Smith finally decided to accept and he had no one against him. % Next Wednesday the officers of the Third Regiment will meet, and the books will then be turned over to the new colonel. They will be thoroughly experted, and much of what the regiment has been com- plaining about will at least be made plain to the officers, if not explained to them. There has been much speculation as to the state of the financial condition of the regi- ment, and it is intended to examine these books particularly. There is also much opposition to the shortage in the band fund, which is much depleted. In fact, the fund is reduced to nothing at all. Thereis an allowance of $35a month for the band, and where this money has gone istobea question before the meeting. ides was, according to the hon- orable Pliny, a pair of seven-league boots in himself. “He ran 1704 miles in the space of two days.” Phili MRS.
