The practice of throwing stones with a sling has become so prevalent with boys as to be positively dangerous. On Wednesday a stone thrown from one of these slings struck a Chinaman in the face, producing a dangerous wound. Marshal Wartenberg arrested two boys who were practicing with the dangerous implements. Wm. McPherson, of Los Angeles, died in the County Hospital on Tuesday. He will be recollected as the author of a pamphlet entitled "Homes in Los Angeles," and a still later work, "Arabesques on a California Dinner Table." The latter work A VISIT TO OLIVE DISTRICT. An Orange Tree Nearly 4 Feet in Circumference and yielding 3,000 Oranges-Olive and Pear Trees of immense size-Fine Growth of Apples. CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. I recently visited the ranch of Messrs. Wakefield and Barr in Olive district, about 3 miles from Anaheim, and while there was shown an orange tree of huge dimensions. This tree measures 45 inches in circumference a foot from the ground, and the year before last produced over 3,000 oranges. It is said to be about 40 years of age and bids fair to live many years more. I could not help admiring its great size and fine, healthy appearance. Two large pear trees are also worthy of mention. Each of these trees measures 5 feet in circumference and bears very heavily. There are on this ranch some ancient olive trees, their large size attesting their great age; while fig, walnut, and other trees are to be found of good size and thrifty growth. This place is known as Olive ranch and on it is located the old Santa Ana house which still is in very good condition and is used by the owners as a residence. The crops which Messrs. Wakefield and Barr are cultivating this year, consists of barley, alfalfa, rye and flax. As high as 95 bushels of corn has been rained to the acre, and fields of barley have avariated 60 bushels. When it is considered this land has been continually producing crops for half a century without artificial enrichment of the soil, its extraordinary strength and richness will not be questioned. Adjoining this place is the ranch of Mr. F. G. Mitchell, commonly known as the Alfalfa Dairy Ranch. On fine, balmy morning that I visited this place, I found Mr. Mitchell at home, and he kindly showed me about and gave me all the information in his power. This ranch was settled over 75 years ago by Teodocio Yorba, and was afterwards known as the Buruel rancho. The old adobe house is yet standing and is used as a dwelling house, but it bears the marks of wear and age. I first examined the trees, which were planted many years ago by Spaniards who formerly lived here, and which have attained great size. An olive tree measures nearly five feet in circumference, and a fig tree nearly as much. There are seven large orange trees which bear heavily every year, and some venerable pear trees attract notice from beholder. Mr. Mitchell informed me that each of these pear trees yields a ton of pears every year. Not far away are 40 good sized pomegranate trees and quite a number of peach seedlings covered with pink bloom. Since Mr. Mitchell has owned this place, he has improved it considerably, and has set out a large number of fruit trees, among which I noticed a 500-pound apple tree and a 400-pound pear tree.

He will be recollected as the author of a pamphlet entitled "Homes in Los Angeles," and a still later work, "Arabesques on a California Dinner Table." The latter work The practice of throwing stones with a sling has become so prevalent with boys as to be positively dangerous. On Wednesday a stone thrown from one of these slings struck a Chinaman in the face, producing a dangerous wound. Marshal Wartenberg arrested two boys who were practicing with the dangerous implements. Wm. McPherson, of Los Angeles, died in the County Hospital on Tuesday. He will be recollected as the author of a pamphlet entitled "Homes in Los Angeles," and a still later work, "Arabesques on a California Dinner Table." The latter work was a non-sensical string of classic quotations and incoherent expressions. The love of strong drink was the bane of McPherson's life and eventually caused his death. Last Wednesday evening a very pleasant social party took place in Orangethorpe, at the residence of Mr. S. L. Chilson. There were about 40 persons present, and with music, dancing, and general sociability the time passed agreeably to all until midnight, when a fine lunch was served by the amiable hostess. The party did not break up until the small hours of the morning, when the visitors dispersed enthusiastic over the enjoyment of the occasion. A lady yesterday sought to interest one of our attorneys in a land case. The limb of the law asked her if she had a patent to the land in question. She replied that she had; that her husband had sent her one. He then requested her to go and get it. She returned in a short time with a legal looking document which the lawyer, on unfolding, found to be a daily attested decree of divorce! It was some years old, and she had been saving it up as an indefeasible maniment of the title to her property. Herald. Under the Goodwin bill, which has been approved by the Governor, 82 inmates of the State Prison will shortly be set free. Among the number we find the names of the following, convicted from this county: Manuel, an Indian, 10 years, manslaughter; Anton Acher, 8 years, burglary; Jose del Lugo, 5 years, manslaughter; Dolores Ruiz, 5 years, grand larceny; Marcus Levin, 5 years, grand larceny; Ygile Lagour, 9 years, rape; J. T. Lambert, 5 years, manslaughter. A large number of business men attended the meeting of the Home Industry League, held in Los Angeles on Wednesday night. After transacting some preliminary actions was made that the press should advocate the establishment of paper mills and tanneries in the county. It was stated that enough rags and old paper were wasted to keep a small mill in operation. It was also stated that if the hides which were now sent away from this county were tanned here it would give full employment to a tannery, and the leather would meet with a ready sale. A Committee was appointed to call upon the present owners of the woolen mill property in Los Angeles, and ascertain if an arrangement could not be made to re-commence the manufacture of cassimeres and similar cloths. A letter from an Arizona firm was read. They used as a dwelling house but it bears the marks of wear and age. I first examined the trees, which were planted many years ago by Spaniards who formerly lived here, and which have attained great size. An olive tree measures nearly five feet in circumference, and a big tree nearly as much. There are seven large orange trees which bear heavily every year, and some venerable pear trees attract notice from beholders. Mr. Mi shell informed me that each of these pear trees yields a ton of pears every year. Not far away are 40 good sized pomegranite trees and quite a number of peach seedlings covered with pink bloom. Since Mr. Mitchell has owned this place, he has improved it considerably, and has set out a large number of fruit trees, among which I noticed 1,500 olive cuttings, 400 pomegranite, and 500 apple and peach trees. He intends soon to buy and plant 300 young orange trees budded with some choice variety. The chief object of attraction on this ranch, however, is a field of alfalfa, consisting of 24 acres. Upon this tract of land huge crop of alfalfa can be raised almost every month. This alfalfa field has netted its owner $500 in the last 12 months, proving alfalfa a most remunerative crop; it properly irrigated. It has been thought by some that alfalfa lies dormant to some extent during the winter season, but this has been the opposite of Mr. Mitchell's experience. This district was one of the first places that was settled, when the Spaniards took possession of this country many years ago, and it is very interesting to walk or ride about, and view the adobe ruins which are scattered around—relies of people who have long since died, or passed away. The scenery, too, is very fine in this part of the valley, and it is a matter of some surprise to me that it does not find more admirers. Perhaps hereafter, when it shall be more fully known and better appreciated, artists will delineate its beauties on canvass, and poets celebrate its glory in song. CORYDON. Centralia Items. CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. The Centralia Literary Club held its regular meeting at the school house, on the evening of last Saturday. We were present and thought the performance so good that we venture to offer a report of the exercises. The first on the programme was a duet by Misses Hill and Hickox. Then a selection was read by Mrs. Upson, which was followed by a recitation given by C. F. Robbins,and Miss Crane read an essay which had been written for the occasion by Mrs. Crane. These exercises had already taken place when we arrived at the school house, and we cannot speak of their merit from personal observation, but we were told that they compared very favorably with the other performances of the evening. We reached the club just in time to hear a temperance piece sung and acted by Mr. Hill and others. They brought out the spirit of the piece finely, and the audience seemed highly pleased. We were next regaled with a reading from Miss Callaway' and a tableaux song in which Misses Williams and Metcalf and Mr. Goodhue took part. To our mind, the finest performance of the whole evening's entertainment, was a biographical sketch of the Empress Josephine, written and read by Mrs. Hughes. This lady writes in a most attractive style. In her animated description, the noble wife of the great Napoleon seemed better and purer than ever before, and the rare virtues and tender graces of gentle Josephine shone with a brighter and clearer lustre. A proverb was acted by several young ladies and gentlemen, who perfectly demonstrated that "when the cat is away the mice will play." A poetical selection was read by Mrs. Entler, entitled "The Little Black-Eyed Rebel." This poem was founded on an incident which occurred using as a dwelling house but it bears the marks of wear and age.

A Committee was appointed to call upon the present owners of the woolen mill property in Los Angeles, and ascertain if an arrangement could not be made to re-commence the manufacture of cassimeres and similar cloths. A letter from an Arizona firm was read. They state that Los Angeles County bacon sells much more readily in the territory than the best Chicago bacon. It was decided to send a man throughout the county to secure the active assistance of all who sympathize with this movement. It was further decided to call an out-door meeting in its advocacy. On Thursday the Executive Committee met and decided to visit the following places on the dates mentioned for the purpose of organizing branch leagues: Monday, April 22—At Pomona. Tuesday, "23—At Riverside. Wednesday, "24—At San Bernardino. Thursday, "25—At El Monte. Friday, "26—At Downey City. Saturday, "27—At Los Angeles. Monday, "29—At Anaheim. Tuesday, "30—At Santa Ana. Wednesday, May 1—At Wilmington. Thursday, "2—At Compton. Saturday, "4—At Santa Monica. Downey Items. [From the Courier.] Mr. Hunting, who, a short time since, sold this place here and removed with his family to Oregon, has returned and intends to stay. We learn that Dr. Fulton is now having the lumber and material hauled, and that the erection of a large and handsome hotel edifice will commence at once at the famous sulphur well. The parties who have the brickyard, at Fulton's, are nearly ready to burn one kiln, and while this is burning they will prepare for another. Mr. John Mitrovich, of this place, has contracted for forty-five thousand of these bricks with which to erect his store. Thermometrical Record.

Westminster Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. The committee appointed to solicit contributions and subscriptions for the Building fund of the Presbyterian Church are now "armed" with circulars, and the printed forms they want persons subscribing to fill out, and will commence their duties at once. For convenience in prosecuting their work our settlement and vicinity has been set off into districts, as follows: District No. 1—North of the main road and west of the east line of Messrs. Jesse Davis, Bowley, Strong, Lawton, etc.; A. H. Alward, collector. No. 2—South of No. 1; Mrs. Taylor, collector. No. 3—All south of the main road and east of No. 2; J. P. Sherwood, collector. No. 4—Below Messrs. Davis, Bowley's, Strong's, etc., east line, and the section line road up Messrs. Van Anda's and Lyman's lines, and the main road and the old colony line; Miss Mattie McCoy, collector. No. 5—Between the main road and the old colony line (one mile north) and east of the road passing up Messrs. Van Anda's and Lyman's line; Joshah McCoy, collector. No. 6—North of districts 4 and 5; Mrs. Lyons, collector. The Presbyterian social met in the Hall Tuesday evening, when the following programme was successfully carried out: "Greeting Chorus," Misses Minnie and Rosa Keifhaber, Allie McFadden, Jessie McCoy, May Craig, and Birdie Leffler with John A. McCoy and Jesse Clark. Mrs. Taylor, the president of the society, then read a few original verses, good and to the point, (building a church). Quartette, "It is not all of life to live," Mrs. P. Cotton, Mrs. Willey, Messrs. Lyman and Culter, Song, "Gentle Ye Blows," Misses Keifhabar and others (as above). Recitation, Latie Lyman. Declamation, "The American Indian," E. L. Goldy. Song of the roses," Misses McFadden, McCoy and others (as above). "Mulligan Guards"—four Mulligans under command of Captain Poor. Son, "Music on the wave," Misses Craig, Leffler and others (as above). These exercises were followed by the rattling of dishes, knives, forks, etc., and a scene that indicated many of those present were heartily enjoying the good things which the ladies had provided. Of the decorations two imitation hanging baskets were very prettily wrought and deservedly attracted considerable attention. Flowers were abundant, as usual. In the front end of the hall was arranged in evergreen letters, "The Lord help us," and on the opposite wall "We will build" with a well executed crayon sketch of a church (drawn by Mrs. Taylor) hanging under it. The rain of the night before had left the roads bad so that many who otherwise would have attended were prevented. Still the rooms were comfortably filled and the ladies cleared twenty-six dollars. Norwalk Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. Norwalk was visited on Sunday by one of the manifold attractions of Los Angeles county, namely a terrible wind, which nearly destroyed flower gardens and fruit trees. This affliction was followed on Monday and Tuesday by an extremely heavy rain, that caused the flowers and trees to lift up their heads again in thankfulness. It rained at least an inch and a half in that time. Some of the farmers are bemoaning the state of their barley fields. The barley is injured by the wind and rain, and now only needs a good frost to complete its ruin. But these disconsolate tillers of the soil may console themselves with the hope that "Jack Frost" has concluded to leave this beautiful valley in peace and visit his wrath on other lands. We were lately shown a small peach tree, four feet in height, grown on the farm of Mr. Gilbert Sproule. It will not be a year old until May, but has already exhibited several blossoms. Another example of California "goaheaditivene s." Mr. Christopher Crilovich, the pioneer of Norwalk, is ornamenting and beautifying his place by planting out orange and encalyptus trees. The Norwalk Club is progressing finely; several new members were admitted Monday, and applications have been received from others for admission. Johnston and Ayers are completing their improvements by the addition of four hundred apple trees. Last Sunday the presiding elder delivered a very eloquent discourse in the Artesia school house, upon the death of William Pierce, brother of Mr. Frank Pierce of Coyote Creek, who was engineer at a silver mine in Mexico, about one hundred and fifty miles from Graymas. He lost his life by an accidental discharge of a pistol in the hands of a young man with whom he was playing at the time. The deceased was a young man of fine ability, and very highly esteemed by the citizens of San Jose, of which city he was a long resident. Mr. Baldwin, the blacksmith of Norwalk, is doing a very good business, gives general satisfaction and is well pleased with his new location. "Week in, week out, from morn till night You can hear his bellows blow; You can hear him swing his heavy sludge With measured beat and slow; Like a sexton ringing the village bell When the evening sun is low." New Advertisements. Messrs. A. Guy Smith & Co., with characteristic enterprise, have commenced im- An event of the day in which the ladies had provided. Of the decorations two imitation hanging baskets were very prettily wrought and deservedly attracted considerable attention. Flowers were abundant, as usual. In the front end of the hall was arranged in evergreen letters, "The Lord help us," and on the opposite wall "We will build" with a well executed crayon on sketch of a church (drawn by Mrs. Taylor) hanging under it. The rain of the night before had left the roads bad so that many who otherwise would have attended were prevented. Still the rooms were comfortably filled and the ladies cleared twenty-six dollars. The announcement we made last week that Alward Bro. & Co. had sold out to McFadden & Poor, although authorized, proves to have been premature. The transfer has not yet been made. A. B. & Co. will at once procure a fresh stock of and carry, as heretofore, a well assorted line of goods. The Co-operative Co. are dealing heavily in machinery and implements. They have a header, three kinds of mowers, horse rakes, sulky plows, one or two horse cultivators, etc. During the past ten days they have taken an order for at least one sulky plow daily. Waymam, Gothard & Co., have purchased a 10-foot Hodge's Case header. Carey & Sons have also purchased a new header. There are only six of these machines owned here now. Bee men are rushed now caring for their bees that will swarm faster than they can divide the hives and send them to the mountains. We saw four swarms striking out yesterday for parts unknown. Alward Bro. & Co. sent ten loads (80 stands) to their ranches up the Santiago this morning, and will move the balance, about 250 stands, as rapidly as possible. This is the programme with all our bee men—get them up in the mountains at the earliest possible day. We are told that a team belonging to Mr. Hull was stung to death last week up in the canyon. Petitions have been circulated here during the past week—one to Congress in the interest of the S. P. R. R., and the other to Judge Stephens asking that Philip Davis be appointed supervisor, to fill the place of W. H. Spurgeon, resigned. Mr. J. D. Ott was here yesterday and informed us he had received his appointment as County Supervisor. Mr. George Hansler and wife arrived here Monday night from Canada. Other parties who came out with them and are visiting in the upper part of the State will be here in a few weeks. Mail now closes at 1:30 and returns about 7:30 p.m., connecting with the train from Los Angeles at the depot. This arrangement will continue. Rained Sunday night, Monday night and Tuesday morning—15-16 of an inch—to al for season 19 11-16, (others claim 22 inches). Quite windy Sunday and Monday, causing some barley to lodge. J. H. Goldsworthy is happy—a girl. April 18. J. T. Garden Grove Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. Instead of having Sunday School last sabbath the exercises partook of the temperance meeting.

"Week in, week out, from morn till night You can hear his bellows blow; You can hear him swing his heavy sledges, With measured beat and slow; Like a sexton ringing the village bell, When the evening sun is low." J. A. C. New Advertisements. Messrs. A. Guy Smith & Co., with characteristic enterprise, have commenced importing grain sacks direct from England. They are thus enabled to sell at a price with which the ordinary dealer cannot compete. It would be well for farmers to have a little conversation on the subject with Messrs. Smith & Co. before purchasing their sacks in San Francisco or elsewhere. The Trustees of Alamitos School District give notice to the voters in said district that an election will be held on May 2d, at which will be submitted the question of voting a tax of $1,200 to build a school house.

CAHEN & WILLARD, Center Street Atlanta Georgia Garden Grove Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. Instead of having Sunday School last Sabath the exercises partook of the temperance meeting. Remarks were made by A. G. Cook Esq., and Deacon Howe. After the addresses and the singing of temperance songs by a volunteer choir, a Blue Ribbon Brigade was formed. Every one in the house, including all the settlers on the original Garden Grove tract, with but one exception, signed the pledge to abstain from alcoholic liquors as a beverage, and adopted the blue ribbon as a badge of their fidelity. Since Sunday many more have signed the pledge. It was intended to "make a bee" on Tuesday and haul the lumber for the new church, but owing to the rain the good work was postponed until Saturday, when we expect to see the greater portion of the lumber hauled. The erection of the building will be commenced forthwith. The site for the church is given by Deacon Howe and lies between the school house and his dwelling. The work will be under the management of J. A. Harman, contractor and builder. The late rains have leveled some of the barley and considerable will be lost. The late sown crops will probably yield the best. On Wednesday a party of ladies and gentlemen went to the picnic grounds in Santiago Canyon. The occasion was the celebration of the ninth anniversary of the wedding Mr. and Mrs. Howe. The drive was beautiful, the weather splendid and what with croquet, and football and a bountiful lunch the day was passed very pleasantly. James. New York Methodist: "I don't object," said the Quartermaster, on Sunday morning, while our ship was running toward the Equator, before the northeast trade wind, "I don't object to prayers when it blows a hurricane or when we are on a lea shore; but here we are called aft to prayers when the weather is as fine as ever was made; fair winds every day; a clear sun at noon; skysails, studdingsails and everything else act; not a brace or sheet unbelayed for weeks; the ship going ahead so steady that she could carry a glass of sherry on that capstan, and not spill a drop of it!
