WEEKLY GAZETTE. County Official Paper. SATURDAY... DECEMBER 17, 1881 The theatre horror in Vienna has served to draw the attention of the authorities everywhere to the condition of theatre exits, and the result of the investigations show that, notwithstanding the numerous deadly reminders, there are many places of amusement which, in the event of a panic, would be little more than death traps. President Arthur has appointed Ex-Senator Frelinghuysen of New Jersey as Secretary of State in place of Blaine. The Senate confirmed the appointment. It is believed that ex-Senator Howe or ex-Secretary Boutwell will be appointed Attorney-General, and that the new Postmaster-General will be Chauncey I. Filley. Mr. James has tendered his resignation, to take effect on January 1st. The late census of Japan shows a total population of very nearly 36,000,000. The Mikado and his family are shown at the head of the statistics as twenty men and seventeen women. Yeldo, of the vastness of which the old geographies used to tell such tales, contains only 957,121 inhabitants. Kioto approaches it closely with 822,098, and Ozaka comes next with 582,668. Males are more numerous than females in the proportion of 28 per 1,000—that is, there are 1,028 men for every 1,000 women. Senator Farley has introduced a bill providing for the appointment of three Commissioners by the Secretary of the Interior, whose duty it shall be to proceed to Arizona and examine all claims which may be presented for losses by Indian depredations, with a view to having the Government pay for them. If this bill passes, and the Commission becomes an actual fact, there will be a "this thing" in it for some body. VITICULTURE vs. AGRICULTURE. In gathering the statistics of this year's wine crop, we at the same time gathered many facts illustrative of the profits of grape culture, and emphasizing the further fact that rare sagacity was shown by the men who contented themselves with the possession and cultivation of twenty acres at a time when land could be had in Southern California for "a song," and the rule was to own hundreds and thousands of acres. Even at this day, there are many people who own 160 or 320 acres, who toil unceasingly, and who are not a shilling richer at the end of the year; while if they owned but twenty or thirty acres of vines their bank account would show a constantly increasing balance on the right side. From the seventeen acres of vines on Mr. Hartung's vineyard, that gentleman made this year 18,000 gallons of wine. At 20 cents per gallon, this would amount to $3,600. The total expense of caring for the vineyard, gathering the grapes and making the wine did not exceed $600, leaving him a net profit of $3,000. Another vineyardist sold his last year's wine for $2,500. He has eighteen acres, and his expenses were less than $500. From 4½ acres of Mission vines, Mr. D. J. Sorenson this year sold 33 tons of grapes at $20 per ton—$660. The expense of caring for this patch could not have exceeded $50. We might go on and multiply instances of a tenor similar to the above, and going emphatically to show that it is in viticulture and horticulture that this county excels. Not only is the care and cultivation of a vineyard or orchard much more profitable than the raising of grain, but there is no comparison in the labor involved in the two pursuits. The fruit-grower knows nothing of the laborious drudgery of the farmer; two months of the year will cover his "rush" of work, and the management of the fruit farm during the other months partakes more of pleasant and healthful recreation than laborious toil. There is still another fact in this connexion... Senator Farley has introduced a bill providing for the appointment of three Commissioners by the Secretary of the Interior, whose duty it shall be to proceed to Arizona and examine all claims which may be presented for losses by Indian depredations, with a view to having the Government pay for them. If this bill passes, and the Commission becomes an actual fact, there will be a "big thing" in it for some body. For every genuine claim presented, there will be a hundred fraudulent ones, and it is inevitable that some of the latter will be allowed. Among the more remarkable novelties of recent discovery is the boot-blacking plant, or Hibiscus rosa sinensis, a native of New South Wales. It is stated that the leaves of this shrub contain a tough and viseous substance gifted with all the properties and attributes of the finest boot polish. Squeeze them gently over the "Wellington" or "Blucher" and they will yield some thick, dusky drops of sticky fluid, which must then be spread over the surface of the boot in the most approved manner of the shoe-black brigade. This done, a polish of dazzling brilliancy may be brought out by a few light but sweeping touches of the "finishing" brush. According to the annual message of Governor Blackburn, Kentucky is enjoying an almost unprecedented condition of prosperity, with the brightest of prospects before her. He says the outstanding bonds of the State amount to the insignificant sum of $180,394, to meet which she has in money and bank and turnpike stock estimated resources of $708,133. The State tax amounts to but forty-five cents on the one hundred dollars, of which twenty cents goes to the School Fund and five cents to the Sinking Fund, leaving only twenty cents of what is termed revenue proper for the support and expenses of the State Government, for all purposes whatever. A recent Washington telegram says that it is not impossible that Guiteau may be revealed as a forger. The letter which he wrote the District Attorney, asking for bail, struck Corkhill as resembling clearly the famous Morey letter, and several experts have so pronounced it. The first three letters in Guiteau's name in the letter to the District Attorney and the first three letters in Garfield's signature to the Morey letter, are absolutely identical. The letter is now in the possession of the Chief Clerk of the State Department, and no one who has yet seen the original Morey letter and Guiteau's letter, but has pronounced them written by the same person. At the time the Morey letter was written Guiteau had been driven from the Republican headquarters in New York, but was still hanging around in that emphatically to show that it is in viticulture and horticulture that this county excels. Not only is the care and cultivation of a vineyard or orchard much more profitable than the raising of grain, but there is no comparison in the labor involved in the two pursuits. The fruit-grower knows nothing of the laborious drudgery of the farmer; two months of the year will cover his "rush" of work, and the management of the fruit farm during the other months partakes more of pleasant and healthful recreation than laborious toil. There is still another fact in this connection which should not be overlooked. The product of the vineyard is salable at any time. There is always a demand for it. If the grapes are made into raisins, commission merchants vie with each other in bidding for them; if made into wine it can be sold and the money paid over within ten minutes after the determination to sell is reached. Every gallon of wine made this year in Anaheim, which was for sale, has already been disposed of. The firm of B. Dreyfus & Co. are the principal purchasers, and whenever an owner desires to sell, they always find in this firm a ready and liberal purchaser. The fact that such large incomes are made so easily and regularly from the twenty-acre vineyards of Anaheim, ought to stimulate vine planting. Every acre of land in this vicinity ought to be covered with vines: The land offered for sale to the west, north and northwest of Anaheim is better adapted to the growth of the vine than Anaheim proper. These lands can be purchased for from $35 to $75 per acre. Plant them with vines, and in five years they will be worth $500 per acre. WHARF FRANCHISES. The most important business which has engaged the attention of the Board of Supervisors for several sessions has been the consideration of the numerous applications for wharf franchises at Wilmington. Out of the mass of applications, the Board has granted some, refused others and postponed action on the balance. From all that we can learn, however, the franchises which have been granted were to men who were entitled to receive them and were for the advancement of the public weal. We are also given to understand that the Board are disinclined to grant any further franchises, but that before finally rejecting the applications they desire to know the sentiment of the people in the matter. When a county is so fortunate as to have a Board of Supervisors against whom no word of reproach has ever been hurled, and who are in business capacity the equal of any body of men who could be selected, it is, as a rule, best to allow them to dispose of the public business in their own way without officious interference. But there are cases wherein they have a right to ask and to receive an expression of public opinion. Although we contrary seem to be ennestate transactioner of the John Edwards, than into the hands Mr. Buck Place, and that Goldsworthy thing in common real estate, is been made by which shows us and is the best future.

If they will not The Lompoc Record records the following strange case: "A curious case of spontaneous combustion occurred at the residence of Joshua Baker Tuesday night. He was sitting near the couch upon which his little girl (so badly burnt last week) was lying when she suddenly cried out in accents of alarm that she was burning. Without the alightest idea of the truth, but merely to pacify the child, she was carefully raised in order to change her position, when, to the alarm and amazement of the family, the bedding underneath her was found to be on fire. Investigation proved that the feathers in the pillows on which she had been lying had become matted and saturated with the oil used in dressing her burns, and the heat of her fever-filled body had caused them to ignite. Fortunately discovery in time prevented any injury to the child." New York, Dec. 12.—A Washington special says 16 of the experts summoned on either side of the Guiteau trial have held a consultation. All agreed that the assassin is sane and legally responsible for the murder of Garfield. This number includes practically the whole body of experts now here attending the trial. Dr. E.C. Spitzgan, of New York, testified in the Guiteau case this morning; He had made nervous and mental diseases a specialty. He had testified as an expert twenty-five times. Examined Guiteau in jail yesterday. Was satisfied that he was insane. The main features of the prisoner's case were a tendency to form delusive opinions and morbid projects and a strong imbecility of judgment. He said: "If I had no other evidence than the expression of his face I should have no doubt that he is a moral imbecile or a moral monstrosity." ORANGETHORPE ITEMS. The school room has always been a place of interest to us, even when we ploiled slowly along from A B C to "Baker," and longingly looked forward to the time when the happy climax would be attained, that we might be enabled to read the wonderful stories of the unlucky milk-maid and the boy that stole apples! Many pleasant associations were vividly recalled by a visit to our district shool a short time since, when for the time being we lived over again the "happy days gone by," in the faces of our own dear children. The school was orderly, and an array of healthier, happier and brighter looking boys and girls could scarcely be found, and while we were particularly attracted by the little ones, a class in Arithmetic comprising five young ladies, Miss Nellie Bancroft, Jennie Gardiner, Beatrice Stone, Mary Smith and May Chilson, deserve special mention. Miss Clara Shulte is also a member of the class, but was absent on account of sickness on the day of our visit. A class in Grammar, also, did themselves much credit, and it is our honest conviction, that when the term is closed and applicants are "putting in" for our school the universal sentiment of trustees, parents and pupils will be, "let us have Miss King." We regret the temporary removal of Mr. C. E. Smith and family from our midst, but as their business interests remain with us, we may hope their stay will be of short duration. It is seldom a neighborhood can boast of arrivals from the "Hub," and we gladly welcome the friends of Mr. and Mrs. Curtis, hoping their sojourn among us may prove pleasant and profitable. Our young people are anxiously awaiting the coming of the holidays, and our older and more thoughtful ones the rain. With the hope that our anticipations may all soon be realized we remain Yours, O. D. WESTMINSTER ITEMS. Although some ways from the railroad, Lecture from Guitteau's Counsel. WASHINGTON, Dec. 14th.—George Scoville, brother-in-law and counsel for Guitteau, lectured to-night on the Guitteau case. A large number of tickets were sold, but the audience was small. The lecturer was heartily applauded. Scoville premised the lecture with the remark that he had not the least intention of reflecting upon the Court, or endeavoring to affect the trial in any way. It was to public opinion he desired to address himself, without endeavoring to extenuate the crime or create a feeling in favor of the prisoner. He complained that the press had not shown a disposition to give that force and consideration to the defense which had been interposed which ought to be given. Not only the press, but the pulpit had prejudiced the case. The pulpit condemned Guitteau on the assumption that he was a sane man, and yet not a single minister of the Gospel had called on the prisoner in his cell. Nineteen-twentieths of the letters received here by Guitteau were simple threats against his life, and no more than two or three breathed a Christian spirit. He criticized the action of Judge Davis in a murder case in New York, for going outside the case, and instructing the jury in the Guitteau case, and giving as law what Judge Cox will not give, if he (Scoville) were not mistaken. He had good reason to believe the prisoner would not live until the conclusion of the trial. He (Scoville) was here to see that Guitteau had a fair trial under the forms-of-law, but he was not here to guard the prisoner with a troop of soldiers. Let the responsibility rest where it might, he gave this warning, and he knew whereof he spoke. Not for the life of this prisoner he gave it, but because he wanted to see order prevail, and because he did not want the American people disgraced by having a man on trial for his life assassinated like a dog. The lecturer declared the greatest peril to the prisoner was in the passage from the Court-room to the prison van, and pointed out the danger that some desperate man would stab the prisoner with a dirk and escape without detection. It was not the prisoner alone who was on trial; the question of capital punishment was on trial, for he predicted should Guitteau be hanged and a post mortem examination prove him to have been insane, it would be almost the last case of capital punishment.

D. WESTMINSTER ITEMS. Although some ways from the railroad, we contrary to our Garden Grove neighbors, seem to be enjoying quite a boom in real estate transactions. We hear of the transfer of the John Mack place to Mr. John Edwards, that the Gregory place has gone into the hands of Mr. Wm. Edwards, that Mr. Buck has purchased Sam. Finley's place, and that some one has bought the Goldsworthy place; and the most interesting thing in connection with this business in real estate, is that these purchases have all been made by old residents of this place, which shows their confidence in our section and is the best indication of its success in the future. A birthday surprise party was given to Miss Hester Edwards last Saturday evening. It passed off in the pleasant way common to such gatherings here. A grand union temperance meeting will be held in the Presbyterian Church next Sunday evening. Lecture by Rev. J. W. Webb. As this is a cause in which the people of Westminster have always been interested we may look for a large gathering. Our real estate boom still continues. Mr. H. W. Martien has bought the place formerly owned by Robert Bothwick; Mrs. Stewart has bought the Sutton 40 acres; John Breed, Jr., has bought the 40 acres east of the Sutton place; Mr. Bessonett has sold the 20 acres that he bought last, to Mr. H. H. Cross, and Uriah Penhall has bought the Gothard 20 acres. Those who believe in encouraging home industry and the young people at the same time, should buy some of the ink made by Master Harry McCoy. It is the best we have ever used, and cheaper than the cheapest violet, black or red. And now if anybody wants to see how Santa Claus' headquarters look let him go to the store of Mr. T. C. Hull, of Westminster, and he will be satisfied, for really he has most everything—all kinds of toys, tinware and trinkets, vases, fancy stationery, a very choice collection of candies, and everything is cheap. If folks will look at his stock they will not need to go farther. LOS ANGELES MARKETS. Corrected weekly for the Gazette by E. GERMAIN, Commission and Shipping Merchant, 24 Main street, Los Angeles.

The six-day heel-and-toe walking match at Tucson between Madame Dupree and six men—a fresh man to come on every twenty-four hours—closed on Tuesday evening at 10:30 o'clock. The match was for $500 a side. Madame Dupree scored 456 miles and her opponents a total of 425 miles, giving Madame Dupree the race by 31 miles. Some splendid walking was exhibited. Thomas Connolly, a track-walker in the employ of the railroad company, was killed at Sacramento by the explosion of torpedoes which he was carrying in his pocket, as is customary with track-walkers, the torpedoes being attached to the rails to alarm trains when anything dangerous is discovered. Connolly stumbled and fell, and the conclusion exploded the torpedoes with the result stated. An attempt was made to assassinate Mayor Clum of Tombstone, on Thursday. He was traveling in the stage from Tombstone to Benson, when it was attacked by a party of armed men who fired twenty shots into the stage. The driver was hit in the leg. The fact that there is considerable feeling against Clum, growing out of the Earp tragedy, is the basis for the belief that this was an attempt upon his life.

An Austin, Nevada, dispatch says: About half-past o'clock this morning a party of masked men forcibly entered the jailor's room in the Court House building, overpowered him and forced him to give up the keys to the jail and cell door containing Richard Jennings, who, in cold blood, shot and killed John A. Barrett, an old and respected citizen, the night before, without provocation. Jennings was taken out and hung from the balcony over the front door. Wells, Fargo & Co.'s car was entered, five miles west of El Paso, on Tuesday. The agent, C. E. Banvard, was bucked and gagged, his keys and the contents of the chest taken. The loss is between $2000 and $3000. The agent remained gagged some twenty minutes, until relieved by a brakeman. The old style car is used, which affords no protection to the agent. It is a wonder that more robberies are not committed near El Paso, as there is a notorious gang infesting that section now. WASHINGTON, Dec. 12. Berry has prepared bills for introduction at the first opportunity as follows: To repeal all duties on sacks and bagging used for sacking grain, wool or cotton, and on all burlaps and gunny cloth. The bill is to take effect July lst, and is to apply to all such articles then in bonded warehouses. To create a manufacturing arsenal at Benicia; to enable the State of California to take bonds for school purposes in lieu of the sixteenth and thirty-sixth sections found to be mineral land; to grant to California five per cent. of the net proceeds of all public lands within her boundaries; to appropriate two hundred thousand dollars for the construction of a lighthouse and fog signal at or near Point George. Congressman Pacheco will this week introduce a bill for the creation of a Wilmington Collection District; for the appropriation of seventy-five thousand dollars to erect a Government building in Los Angeles; to establish a fog signal at San Luis Obispo; to donate Camp Independence to the counties of Inyo and Mono for school purposes.
