WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...APRIL 9, 1881 ENCOURAGING FACTS. If one will stop to consider the status of affairs in this county to-day and compare the situation with what it was twelve months ago, he will be forced to admit that during that time great progress has been made and that the tendency of business is still onward and upward. The opening up of new markets for our produce has given affairs in this county a tremendous impulse, and the railroad work which is progressing day by day gives assurance that still further drafts will be made upon the storehouses of our county during the present year. One of the most encouraging facts which can be presented is the steadily increasing shipments of our produce from Wilmington harbor direct for Europe. Three vessels have cleared from that port for Europe already this year, loaded with wheat, and the fourth vessel is now ready to begin its voyage. The French bark "Papillon" will clear in a day or two with a cargo of Odessa wheat and honey. Ten thousand sacks of this wheat was furnished by Messrs. A. Guy Smith & Co. of Anaheim, who also furnished 10,000 pounds of the honey which went to make up the cargo. This wheat and honey was all produced in this immediate vicinity. The same firm has orders for a large quantity of CALIFORNIA WINES IN GERMANY. About a year ago, a vessel left San Francisco for Bremen with a cargo of California wines. As this was the first extensive shipment to that country, considerable interest was felt in the venture—an interest which waned as time passed on without mention being made of the result of the speculation. Through the kindness of Mr. F. A. Korn we are enabled to give the public the first news concerning the cargo. It is in the form of a letter from a relative of his (a wine merchant) in Bremen. We are indebted to Mr. Isaac Cohen for the following translation of the letter: “BREMEN, March 9, 1881. "The cargo of wine shipped last year from San Francisco, per vessel 'Stella,' had the attention of our local wine merchants drawn to it long before its arrival here. The different brands of the cargo were tried with the greatest of interest as soon as the samples were distributed, for everybody was anxious to know something about the strange article and assist in its introduction, naturally expecting, however, to make some money by the transaction. Opinions vary greatly in regard to the quality of the wines, but on the whole the judgment is favorable. Although a good market for the cargo could be obtained, not a barrel of it has been sold to date. This is due solely to the high prices demanded. Public opinion is unanimous on this point. "I hereby enclose a list of the dif- fourth vessel is now ready to begin its voyage. The French bark "Papillon" will clear in a day or two with a cargo of Odessa wheat and honey. Ten thousand sacks of this wheat was furnished by Messrs. A. Guy Smith & Co. of Anaheim, who also furnished 10,000 pounds of the honey which went to make up the cargo. This wheat and honey was all produced in this immediate vicinity. The same firm has orders for a large quantity of Odessa wheat to load a vessel now lying at Wilmington harbor, and the probabilities are that by the time the crop now growing is harvested very little of last year's crop will be in the warehouses. It is undeniable that Odessa wheat is growing in favor, and that the objections first urged against it are being swept away. Apiarists are also to be congratulated on the turn affairs are taking. The business has been under a cloud for a long time, but the cloud is lifting. Not only is there an increasing demand in Europe for pure American honey, but masters of vessels are anxious that it shall form part of their cargo. In loading their vessels they place the honey packages at the bottom, cover them over with a false deck and then pile on the wheat. The moisture on the lower deck of the vessel has no effect on the honey, but when grain is the only cargo the lower sacks are always spoiled and the loss is large. By loading as stated, however, this loss is avoided. Messrs. Smith & Co. express the opinion that all the honey raised in this county next year will find a market in Europe, and that the shipment of honey from here to San Francisco will practically cease. A MEETING, attended by about 25 persons, was held in Los Angeles on last Saturday night. It was called by Mr. Meherin, a merchant of San Luis Obispo, who desires to form a joint stock company for the purpose of running an opposition line of steamers between San Diego and San Francisco. If we may judge from the lack of interest manifested, the project will never reach fruition. The truth is that the P. C. S. S. Co. are eminently reasonable and just in their charges; it is the cost of putting pro- its introduction, naturally expecting, however, to make some money by the transaction. Opinions vary greatly in regard to the quality of the wines, but on the whole the judgment is favorable. Although a good market for the cargo could be obtained, not a barrel of it has been sold to date. This is due solely to the high prices demanded. Public opinion is unanimous on this point. "I hereby enclose a list of the different varieties and quantities so that you will be able to see what people here consider too high quotations. I must say, in addition, that the difference is not simply a question of one or two per cent. I think I do not err in stating that the people consider the prices twenty-five per cent too high. "We ourselves intended to send all the wine to Russia at the prevailing local original prices, but every firm to which our agent has made the proposition have declared that at the prices asked it is impossible to do business, nor would they even make an offer; and as in this case, so in other countries." "It is hard to tell how this thing will terminate. The great interest shown in the cargo at its arrival has ceased to exist, and whether it will be possible to revive as great an interest, after a considerable reduction in prices, remains to be seen. "Under these circumstances I cannot advise you to make even a small consignment of your wines. In my opinion, you should wait and see what will become of the wine now here. California wine should first be introduced in large quantities; for the introduction of a new article, no matter how excellent, is generally connected with many sacrifices." The accompanying price list, referred to by the writer of the above letter, is here given, omitting the quantity and marks on the different packages, which items are of no interest. For a proper understanding of the quotations, it should be borne in mind that the figures to the right represent the sum asked for 225 litres. One thousand litres are equal to 262 gallons: Vintage 78.....Zinfandel.....225 marks " 77....Red wine.....220 " " 78....do.....230 " " 76....do.....240 " " 76....Riesling.....215 " " 78...Riesling-Mission.....215 " " 76..White wine.Mission.....225 " " 78..Chateau d'Yquem.....280 " " 75....do.....300 " last Saturday night. It was called by Mr. Meherin, a merchant of San Luis Obispo, who desires to form a joint stock company for the purpose of running an opposition line of steamers between San Diego and San Francisco. If we may judge from the lack of interest manifested, the project will never reach fruition. The truth is that the P. C. S. S. Co. are eminently reasonable and just in their charges; it is the cost of putting produce on board the steamers which swells the shippers' bills. The extension of the railroad to deep water will materially reduce transportation charges; the work on that project is even now being prosecuted, and in a short time it will be an accomplished fact. If Mr. Meherin was a capitalist and proposed to run an opposition line of steamers for his own profit, nineteen twentieths of the shippers and producers of this county would quote the old adage about a fool and his money, but would at the same time hope for his success. But he asks the people to furnish all the money—$300,000. The gentleman will find that the day is past when a scheme such as he proposes can be successfully floated. The experience of the people of this county in joint stock arrangements have led them to view any such propositions with disfavor. FOLLOWING the example of the GAZETTE, the San Diego papers are to the fore with a protest against the present train schedule. They complain that the mails from the East for San Diego are detained in Los Angeles twenty-four hours. The Eastern mails are due at Los Angeles at 4:45 p.m., only five minutes before the starting of the Anaheim train, and no connection has yet been made. It is evident that a general straightening out of things is needed. These figures are altogether too high, and it is evident that the speculator who took this cargo to Germany has, in asking such exorbitant prices, not only injured himself but also made the work of introducing our wines into Germany more difficult than it would otherwise have been. The freedom of Anabeim from all kinds of malaria is a pleasing fact to which we have adverted a hundred times. The natural supposition is that malaria is always present where irrigation is extensively practiced, but the porous character of the soil here prevents the forming of pools of stagnant water and the consequent disease germs which such pools always throw off. There is probably another way of accounting for our immunity from disease. Professor Bouchardat attributes to the vine powerful sanitary properties. He asserts that wherever it is cultivated to any considerable extent there is a very sensible diminution of intermittents. The virtue is attributed to the action of the vine on the effluvia which cause fevers. Anaheim Viticultural and Horticultural Society. The members of the above named society met on Monday afternoon, Mr. Reiser presiding. The following constitution and by-laws were read and adopted by a unanimous vote: CONSTITUTION AND BY-LAWS Of the Anaheim Viticultural and Horticultural Society. CONSTITUTION. ARTICLE 1. The grape and fruit growers, manufacturers and distillers of grape brandy of Anaheim and vicinity hereby form themselves into an association under the name of the Anaheim Viticultural and Horticultural Society, for mutual information and the promotion of all interests connected with the viticultural and horticultural industries. ART. 2. The elective officers of this society shall be a President, three Vice-Presidents, a Secretary, a Treasurer, and a Finance Committee of three members, to hold office for one year or until their successors are elected.

CONQUERANCE GARDEN GROVE ITEMS. Deacon Jos. Howe left with his family for Los Angeles on last Tuesday, and Mr. Webster and family have taken possession, moving into their new quarters on Wednesday. Mr. Witham is expected to arrive here next week. The 1st of April passed without incident, except the man who bet about a month ago that we would have two inches of rain before the 1st of April had to furnish the systems for the company. A party of young folks made an excursion to Newport last Saturday and succeeded in having a good time and getting very tired. Most of the crops in the Swamp were looking well, though early-sown grain in this neighborhood is quite as promising. The ladies have a social under way for the evening of Friday, April 15th. The subject of the literary part of the programme will be "Temperance." Refreshments of cake and strawberries and cream will be served after the programme is concluded. The present arrangement of the trains on the Santa Ana road is causing considerable complaint; for though the train starts earlier for Los Angeles and returns later in the evening, there is no apparent gain anywhere, as they do not make connection with any other train. Our mails are delayed, and goods shipped to the Arizona market are detained, sometimes to their injury. Mr. M. A. Ward will commence boring artesian wells in a few days. Mr. S. L. King and a party of friends have gone to the mountains. The postoffice was moved from its old position to a place beside the store last week. If the people of Garden Grove and vicinity will be kind enough to leave any items of interest at the store with Mr. Con. Howe, SANTA BARBARA, April 4th.-A Lompez special says that Mrs. Louisa Sargent of Santa Rita, near Lompez, started alone on horseback to visit neighbors on Saturday. Not returning in the evening her husband started to meet her and found her horse grazing by the road side. Arousing the neighborhood a search was made until far into the night without success. Yesterday morning the community turned out on masse and succeeded in finding Mrs. Sargent buried near a sheep camp. She had evidently been outraged and murdered, her head being crushed as if by the blow of a club. An inquest was held on the succeeding day. An Indian or Mexican shepherd named Francisco Jimeno, who was found near the spot, denied all knowledge of the affair. He said he was lying asleep under a tree on the sheep ranch at the time. After the inquest was concluded, one hundred citizens took the sheepherder and hung him to a limb for some seconds. Upon being lowered, he stated that he had seen a man ravish and murder Mrs. Sargent, and as the body was near his cabin, he was fearful that suspicion might attach to him, and putting a rope around her neck, he had dragged her about 400 yards and buried her in a gulch. The marks of the rope were found on her neck, and the trail was plainly visible where the body had been dragged. His shoes fitted the footprints left near the place of concealment. His horse's tracks corresponded in size with those made by the animal employed to drag the body, and blood and woman's hair were on the rope by which the horse was picketed. He guided the citizens to the spot where was buried the club which had crushed her skull. At another place he dug up her hat, and at another tin pail which she was carrying to a neighbor's to get some turkey eggs. He told conflicting stories about another man who had committed the deed, but refused to give any name. The proof of his guilt was considered overwhelming and the citizens strung him up to the limb of she tree. The body was left hanging until yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Sargent was about twenty years of age, the murderer was about sixteen. His name is Francisco Jimeno. Public sentiment throughout the ART. 5. No sectarian or political debates shall be allowed at any meeting of this association. ART. 6. Any member may be expelled by a vote of a majority of the members present, on charges preferred in writing at the preceding regular meeting. ART. 7. This Constitution may be amended by a vote of three-fourths of all members present at any regular meeting, a written resolution containing the proposed amendment having been offered at the preceding regular meeting.

WESTMINSTER ITEMS. Corn planting is now the chief occupation of our farmers, of which a large acreage will be planted this year. Land suitable for corn has been in great demand, and we believe every available acre has been rented. Mr. Neal, who has been sick for several weeks, died early on Friday morning, and his funeral took place from the Presbyterian church on Monday last, and was followed by numerous friends to his last resting place. Mr. Kell, who is now in the St. Jacinto mountains, lost a valuable horse while there a few days ago. We are informed that letters of inquiry still continue to come from Oregon. We suppose they, like Noah's dove, are seeking dry land. The Congregational Social will be held in the Hall Tuesday evening next, April 12th. Admission free. One feature of the programme will be the reading of the "Morning Star." Strawberries and cream for refreshments. All are cordially invited to attend. Chicken raising is quite a large business here, as we are often informed by ladies that their hatch this year numbers one, two, and even three hundred chickens. Mrs. Lyons has an incubator with a capacity of 300 eggs. The Reverends Strong, White, Marquis and Fleming have gone to Pasadena to the meeting of the Presbytery. NORWALK NEWS. EDITOR GAZETTE:—Norwalk, Little Lake and Fulton Wells used to be represented occasionally in the columns of the Gazette by Willmette, who has removed, and for several months these localities have remained unrepresented.. The few items of news from this neighborhood may not be uninteresting to the many readers of the Gazette, so I will jot down from time to time some of the items and forward. The crops about Norwalk on the low lands are excellent, and will, without more rain, be abundant; those on the high or mesa lands, without more rain, will not produce much. There seems to be quite an active market for live stock of all descriptions here—the hair were on the rope by which the horse was picketed. He guided the citizens to the spot where was buried the club which had crushed her skull. At another place he dug up her hat, and at another the tin pail which she was carrying to a neighbor's to get some turkey eggs. He told conflicting stories about another man who had committed the deed, but refused to give any name. The proof of his guilt was considered overwhelming and the citizens strung him up to the limb of the tree. The body was left hanging until yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Sargent was about twenty years of age, the murderer was about sixten. His name is Francisco Jimeno. Public sentiment throughout the county fully justifies the hanging of the murderer. LONDON, April 3d.-The only notable event of the week in London has been the illumination of the business quarter of the city with the electric light. On Thursday night the Brush Company had 32 lights, replacing 162 gas lamps. Siemens had 6 great lights hoisted on tall poles, and 28 small lights. The streets seemed like day. One could easily read newspapers in any part. The outlines of the great public buildings about the Bank of England were brought out with strong effect. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. DR. B.

As, according to the by-laws, the regular meeting should be held next Wednesday evening, it was resolved to dispense with that meeting in view of the number of preliminary meetings held lately.

We hope that during the next few weeks the membership will reach at least one hundred. SAN JOSE, April 3d.—The Horticultural and Viticultural Society held a very interesting meeting yesterday. The committee, appointed at the last meeting to examine pest infecting trees, and remedies, reported that it had not sufficient information upon which it could form any decision, and was instructed to continue its investigations during the year and report from time to time. One member stated that he had applied petroleum to his fruit trees for the purpose of destroying scale bugs, but the trees were mostly damaged by this attempted remedy. Another said he had applied petroleum to his trees with good effect. The Society agreed to the resolutions of the State Horticultural Society regarding the establishment of a school of entomology, and adjourned till May. W. A. Switzer, who has been for the last two months at San Diego, has returned, and reports things lively and plenty of work for all who want it at $1 a day for men, and with team and wagon $2.50 a day and found. Judging from appearances, he did well while in the city of bay and climate. Quite a number of persons from this locality have gone there to work on the railroad, 20 miles of which is graded, and they are now working on a thirty-mile contract this way. Mr. Speyer, of the firm of Speyer & Swigart, of Norwalk, has just returned from Frisco, where he has been supplying their house with a large lot of new goods. SAN BUENAVENTURA, April 4th.—Tom Barke and Manual Silva quarreled in a saloon at Huenense, 15 miles from here, and the row culminated in Silva striking Burke on the neck and kicking him in the bowels, inflicting injuries which caused death almost immediately. Silva fled but was found and arrested by the under Sheriff this morning. An inquest will be held to-day. Judge Fields of National City, is reported to have made about seventy gallons of champagne wine of fine sparkle and flavor from a single vine, besides using a quantity of grapes for the table. The extra session of the Legislature convened on Monday, but they have not as yet made perceptible progress in legislation. NOTICE OF ASSESSMENT. Cajon Irrigation Company.
