Batells, a grain buyer, well known in San Francisco, was accidentally thrown from his buggy and died immediately afterwards. The Governor has appointed H. A. Mayhew, of Tehama county, as Superior Judge of that county, vice Lewis, deceased. It is understood that he has also prepared the commission of N. Greene Curtis, of Sacramento, as Regent of the State University, vice Moss, deceased. A despatch from Lompoc, Santa Barbara county, says that on Sunday night the only liquor saloon in that town was blown to atoms by a large hand and struck Cook with the other, and then clinched and a desperate encounter ensued between Cook and Bean, during which time John McFarland rushed in with a shotgun and attempted to shoot Mr. Bean. Fred Hison then stepped in and saved Mr. Bean. John McFarland then turned upon Hison and discharged his gun. Hison threw the gun up and the charge passed near his head and lodged in the wood-work of the mill. Then they clinched, and McFarland, using a knife, inflicted a severe wound on the head of his adversary, after which Hison discharged his revolver under his arm three times, two shots taking effect and killing McFarland instantly. Bean and Hison then left the mill and two shots were fired at them by unknown parties concealed in the mill. Mr. Bean succeeded in keeping possession of the mill. Cook is under arrest and on his way into San Bernardino. Bean captured Cook's pistol. A box of California raisins was sent to the New York agents of a San Francisco commission house, with instructions to get an opinion of experts concerning them. This is the reply: "The box of California raisins came duly to hand and has excited a great deal of interest and comment among the trade here, to whom we have shown the fruit. They all agree that, judging by this sample, California can produce as fine raisins as any in the world, and if our eyes were shut it would be extremely difficult for one to distinguish this sample from the finest Spanish Dehesia, though some of our importers claim that the skin is tougher than in the imported. The bunches of clusters are even The Governor has appointed H. A. Mayhew, of Tehama county, as Superior Judge of that county, vice Lewis, deceased. It is understood that he has also prepared the commission of N. Greene Curtis, of Sacramento, as Regent of the State University, vice Moss, deceased. A despatch from Lompoc, Santa Barbara county, says that on Sunday night the only liquor saloon in that town was blown to atoms by a large bomb. No one was in the building at the time. Lompoc is a temperance colony, and this is the second saloon destroyed by gunpowder there. In the trial of Anthony Fisher, charged with assault to murder Railroad Commissioner Beerstecher, the jury, after an absence of about two hours, returned a verdict of assault with intent to commit great bodily harm. The counsel for Fisher set up the plea of insanity. San Luis Obispo, May 21st.—At four o'clock this morning Deputy Sheriff Maxwell, Sebastian Ortega and the Bakersfield mail carrier surrounded a house twelve miles from this city to arrest one Gonzales, a noted desperado. Gonzales was commanded to come out of the house. He opened the door and shot Ortega, killing him instantly. Gonzales then escaped with a horse, the officers in pursuit. A San Jose despatch of the 20th says: J. H. Murdoch, ex-manager of the "Daily Herald," who was shot by his brother Robert last November, died at 5 o'clock this morning from the effects of the wound. The bullet entered the chin, tearing away the lower jaw, and lodged, it is supposed, in the spine. It has never been extracted. For the past month deceased had been failing and his death was not unexpected. He was 34 years of age. Robert was rearrested this morning for manslaughter, and his examination will take place on Monday. He gave bail in the sum of $2,000, and was released. The Alameda County "Reporter" says: The Standard Sugar Company recently reorganized under the name of the Standard Sugar Refinery, and with the capital stock increased to $200,000. The operations of the last deal of interest and comment among the trade here, to whom we have shown the fruit. They all agree that, judging by this sample, California can produce as fine raisins as any in the world, and if our eyes were shut it would be extremely difficult for one to distinguish this sample from the finest Spanish Dehesia, though some of our importers claim that the skin is tougher than in the imported. The bunches of clusters are even larger than the Malaga, though the fruit is not so blue, and is of course not so showily packed. With such fruit as this, the question of competition with the Malaga is simply one of price alone." The Groaning Tree. The history of the Groaning Tree is this: About forty years ago a cottager who lived near the centre of the village of Badesley near Lymington, heard frequently a strange noise behind his house, like that of a person in extreme agony. Soon after it caught the attention of his wife, who was then confined to her bed. She was a timorous woman, and being greatly alarmed, her husband endeavored to persuade her that the noise she heard was only the bellowing of the stags in the forest. By degrees, however, the neighbors on all sides heard it, and the thing began to be much talked of. It was by this time plainly discovered that the groaning noise proceeded from an elm which grew at the end of the garden. It was a young, vigorous tree, and to all appearances perfectly sound. In a few weeks the fame of the Groaning Tree was spread far and wide, and people from all parts flocked to hear it. Among others, it attracted the curiosity of the late Prince and Princess of Wales, who resided at that time, for the advantage of a sea bath, at Pilewell, the seat of Sir James Worsley, which stood within a quarter of a mile from the Groaning Tree. Though the country people assigned many superstitious causes for this strange phenomenon, the naturalist could assign no physical one that was in any degree satisfactory. Some thought it was owing to the twisting and friction of the roots. Others thought it proceeded from water which had collected in the body of the tree, or, perhaps, from pent air. But no cause that was alleged appeared equal to the effect. In the meantime the tree did not always groan, sometimes disappointing its visitors; yet no cause could be assigned for its temporary cessations, either from seasons or weather. If any difference was observed, it was thought to groan least when the weather was wet, and most when it was clear and frosty; but the sound at all times seemed to arise from the root. Thus the Groaning Tree continued an object of astonishment during the space of eighteen or twenty months to all the country around; Robert was rearrested this morning for manslaughter, and his examination will take place on Monday. He gave bail in the sum of $2,000, and was released. The Alameda County "Reporter" says: The Standard Sugar Company recently reorganized under the name of the Standard Sugar Refinery, and with the capital stock increased to $200,000. The operations of the last season resulted in a satisfactory dividend to the stockholders. This is especially worthy of note from the fact that it is the first and only paying beet sugar manufactory in the United States. The capacity of the works will be increased to eighty or more tons per day. The increase in expense of working will not be in proportion, and a larger dividend next year is confidently expected. Contracts have been made for about 1,000 acres of beets the present season and more contracts are making, and the outlook is for a larger than the usual yield; so that it is hoped that the works will be fully supplied with the raw material. San Bernardino, May 23.—United States Deputy Collector E. F. Bean seized the Ivanpah Consolidated Mill and Mining Co.'s mill and other property under a United States warrant for distraint, on the night of the 17th, at Ivanpah. The seizure was resisted by John McFarland, J. B. Cook and others. An attempt was made by McFarland and Cook to kill Bean, and also Fred. Hison, who had been depotized and placed in charge of the mill by Collector Bean. J. B. Cook drew a revolver on Hison and was in the act of discharging it, when Mr. Bean seized the revolver with one body of the tree, or, perhaps, from pent air. But no cause that was alleged appeared equal to the effect. In the meantime the tree did not always groan, sometimes disappointing its visitants; yet no cause could be assigned for its temporary cessations, either from seasons or weather. If any difference was observed, it was thought to groan least when the weather was wet, and most when it was clear and frosty; but the sound at all times seemed to arise from the root. Thus the Groaning Tree continued an object of astonishment during the space of eighteen or twenty months to all the country around; and, for the information of distant parts, a pamphlet was drawn up containing a particular account of all the circumstances relating to it. At length the owner of it, a gentleman of the name Ofbes, making too rash an experiment to discover the cause, bored a hole in its trunk. After this it never groaned. It was then rooted up, with a further view to make a discovery, but still nothing appeared which led to any investigation of the cause. It was universally, however, believed that there was no trick in the affair, but that some natural cause existed, though never understood. In the fish ponds of the Grand Duke of Bogen-Hausen-Schnellzug there is a carp at least one hundred and eighty-four years old, which feels out of the hand and is particularly fond of pretzels soaked in lager beer. It is recorded in the legends of the Grand Ducal family that this carp was specially attached to a young duchess who flourished in the latter part of the eighteenth century. She was accustomed to meet a lover regularly Thursday nights at sunset at the edge of the fish pond, and the carp voluntarily acted as sentinel, flopping himself about the top of the water and thus giving timely warning of the approach of the reigning Grand Duke, the father of the duchess. This anecdote needs verification, however, and we give it with due reserve. But the carp himself may be seen any fine day in the pond of the ducal gardens of Bogen-Hausen-Schnellzug.
