WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY...FEBRUARY 18, 1882 Kleinigkeiten. It is said that there is a case of small-pox at Compton. The Fourth Annual Citrus Fair will be held at Riverside on the 22d, 23d and 24th of March. Property on which the State and county taxes are delinquent will be sold on Wednesday, March 1st. Mr. and Mrs. M. Ehrman of San Francisco are visiting here as the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Drayfus and Mr. J. J. Weglein. Receipt books, order books, note books etc., printed on heavy paper and bound in a substantial form, are kept in stock at the Gazette Job Office. There will be service in St. Michael's Church to-morrow evening beginning at 7:15. The subject of the sermon will be, the Lenten Season. Mr. Frederick Heas and wife of San Francisco passed a few days in town this week. Mr. Heas is the publisher of the Democrate, the leading German paper on the coast. Three hundred and eleven Valentines were mailed at the Postoffice on Tuesday, in addition to those mailed to other places. Last year 330 of those missives were mailed, which shows that the custom holds its own here, at any rate. It is said that the earthquake of two weeks ago was followed by an increase in the flow of several artesian wells at Westminster. This is the first time that any —A lapeus linguae on the part of the Judge before whom the case of the county of Los Angeles against Recorder Lamb was tried, caused some very ludicrous scenes to be enacted. The judge in question ordered the clerk to enter judgment for the "defendant." The words had not been uttered but a few moments ere every office-holder and attache in the Court House knew of it, and great was the joy thereat. A judgment for defendant meant the recovery by nearly all the county officials of several thousand dollars in fees. They could afford to be liberal. They were liberal. They "set 'em up" manfully, and their spirits went up as high as 100 degrees in the shade. But in the midst of their hilarity came word that the judge had found for the plaintiff instead of for the defendant, he having found out his error when the findings were submitted for his signature. It is needless to say that the spirits of the officials dropped from blood heat to zero when they found their hopes thus cruelly blighted, and that the free flow of "the ardent" was summarily and unceremoniously shut off. Among the list of awards of star-route mail contracts, telegraphed from Washington, are the following: Newhall to Elizabeth Lake—B. B. Lockwood, $325 per annum; Newhall to Santa Barbara—Geo. Allman $4,400; Elizabeth Lake to Gorman's Station—B. B. Lockwood, $300; San Buenaventura to Los Angeles—A. L. Zelley, $1,130; Fulton Wells to Norwalk—L. C. Mason, $275; El Monte to Azusa—J. T.

Boone, $349; Downey to Ranchito—A. E. Boone, $291; Anaheim to Westminster—A. E. Boone, $395. The awards to Boone have not yet been confirmed. He is a defendant in the Star route cases, which circumstance may stand in the way of his getting the contracta. The will of Daniel Kramer has been filed for probate. It is dated April 18th, 1874. It bequeaths to his sons, Benjamin and Edward, 200 acres of land, and to his THE SHEEP-RACE LEMMER Never before in the history have stock-raisers been involved they now find themselves has been, and to spare, been an opportunity to drive contiguous territory whereient feed to carry them thither. It is different this year drouth is general and the sheep-men do but to patiently as they can. In a conversation had Ferguson the other day, insight into the present been as far as Deming and the adjacent country with porting his sheep thither weighing the matter, he his flocks there would give a great risk. There is an grass in New Mexico, from the feed which the California have been accustomed takes them a long time.

Last year 330 of those missives were mailed, which shows that the custom holds its own here, at any rate. It is said that the earthquake of two weeks ago was followed by an increase in the flow of several artesian wells at Westminster. This is the first time that any good results from these shakes have been recorded. Messrs. E. Dunham and Schiefflin have leased the Pico House in Los Angeles. The Planters' Hotel, of which Mr. Dunham has a lease until May, will be conducted until that time by Major Tyus, whose efficiency as a hotel keeper is well-known to the traveling public. A gentleman, who claims to have discovered special significance in the "signs of the times," tells the reporter of the San Diego Union that the Southern Pacific Railroad Company will at no distant day close the short gap of fifty-five miles, between Santa Ana and San Luis Rey, thus giving Los Angeles a rail connection with San Diego harbor. G. W. Swart, a teamster, while teaming between Mohave station and Los Angeles last week, was caught between two wagons while coupling them near Elizabeth Lake and very severely hurt. He was taken to Los Angeles and on Sunday morning he died of his injuries. He was a member of Los Angeles Lodge, A. O. U. W. At a recent meeting of Anaheim Lodge, No. 85, A. O. U. W., a resolution adopted requesting Rev. J. A. Emery, one of its members, to preach an anniversary sermon, and he has kindly consented to do so. The Lodge was instituted on March 5th, 1879. The sermon will be preached at St. Michael's Episcopal Church on Sunday morning, March 12th. Miss Guadalupe Garcia died in Los Angeles on Thursday night of last week. The inquest developed the fact that her death was due to abortion, and the testimony pointed directly at Dr. A. S. Shorb as the physician who had performed the operation. He was arrested, and his preliminary examination is now being held. It will probably not be concluded until next week. Messrs. B. Dreyfus & Co. have bought one-half of last year's vintage of the Cucamonga vineyard, paying therefor $22,000. The firm owns a one-fourth interest in the vineyard, so that they are in possession of three-fourths of the wine made on that famous vineyard last season. There are 200 acres of bearing vines in the vineyard. The will of Daniel Kramer has been filed for probate. It is dated April 18th, 1874. It bequeaths to his sons, Benjamin and Edward, 200 acres of land, and to his sons Jonathan and Samuel the residue of his estate, and they are also made the executors of his will, without bonds. To his son Henry he bequeaths a comfortable support out of the income of the estate as long as he lives. To one of his daughters he directs the executors "to pay $19 20 gold coin, deliverable only through the hands of the Sheriff of the county of Los Angeles, and if not called for and received for by her within six months after the probate of this will, to be paid into the county treasury for the use of the county." The other members of the family receive nothing. The irreconcilable conflict between the rain gauges is rather bewildering. The rainfall on the night of the 10th instant was reported as low as fifty-six hundredths and as high as 1.10 inches. Three gauges in Los Angeles marked 1.75, 1.21 and .96 respectively, the lowest being the gauge in the Signal Service office. But no matter what the true figures were; the rain helped matters very materially. The true measurement of rain in such a season as this is in the good it accomplishes. Another rain on Thursday night added half an inch to the total. The soil is now quite well saturated, and growing crops need but little additional moisture to mature. The present famine in hay will be of but short duration. The following new vineyards will be planted this year, in addition to those already reported in the GAZETE: L. F. Lewis—20 acres, Malvoisie, Muscat and Black Hamburg. W. J. Smith—20 acres, Mission. W. H. Henderson—12 acres, Mission. Charles Hille—20 acres, principally Malvoisie. Alexander Wright—20 acres, principally Malvoisie. F. Hartung—20 acres, Charboneau, Chasselas and Malvoisie. Kenyon Cox—50 acres, Muscat. There are many people here who will read with regret the notice of the death of Frank P. Marsh, which occurred at Belmont, Massachusetts, on the 9th instant. Frank left here against his better judgment, which told him that he could not endure the climate of his native State. He was well ill all who knew him and was in Ana to Silverado—J. P.

Never before in the history of this section have stock-raisers been in such a dilemma as they now find themselves. Dry years there has been, and to spare, but there has always been an opportunity to drive their flocks to contiguous territory where there was sufficient feed to carry them through the season. It is different this year, however. The drouth is general and there is nothing for sheep-men to do but to bide their time as patiently as they can. In a conversation had with Capt. A. S. Ferguson the other day, he gave us a clear insight into the present situation. He has been as far as Deming and carefully inspected the adjacent country with a view to transporting his sheep thither. After carefully weighing the matter, he decided that to take his flocks there would be to encounter too great a risk. There is an abundance of dry grass in New Mexico, but it is so different from the feed which the sheep of Southern California have been accustomed to that it takes them a long time to get used to it. The sheep are now in a weak condition; and this fact, together with the privations which they would necessarily have to endure by being huddled closely in a car for two or three days, while being transported to the end of the railroad, and a subsequent drive of twenty or thirty miles to reach pasturage, would, in the opinion of experts, result in the loss of one half. This has been the experience of those who sent forward their sheep some time ago, while they were in better condition than they now are. There is no green grass in New Mexico, nor will there be until April. Sheep-owners here intend to get along as best they can until that time, and then, unless matters are propitions here, send them forward by rail. It is within the range of possibilities, however, that feed may yet prove abundant in our own county. Two or three inches of rain will start enough grass to support all the sheep in the county. The nearest point to which sheep may be taken with an absolute certainty of getting plenty of green feed is Tom Greene county, Texas. But the expense of getting them there, and the loss by death, would almost ELECTRICAL SHEEP SHEARS. Mr. Edison has referred to us a communication from New Zealand in which the writer sets forth at length the pressing need of some means of shearing sheep evenly, rapidly, and without risk of hurting the animal. Sheep raising, it will be remembered, is most largely carried on in sparsely inhabited districts where skillful shearers are hard to get. The writer appeals to Mr. Edison, thinking that an electrical apparatus might be made to answer, the cutting to be done by means of a wire highly heated by an electric current. The length of the heated wire or cutter would have to be about three inches. The use of an incandescent wire of platinum for cutting has been entirely successful in surgery, in removing tumors and other diseases or morbid growths, and there is a possibility that it might answer for cutting wool. Whether the heated wire would injure the wool, or whether the accumulation of ash would speedily make the outter operative, are questions which trial alone can decide. Some years ago patents were taken out for a method of felling timber by the use of wire electrically heated, but when the method was put to practical test it failed, as the ash of the burnt wood soon surrounded the wire with a fire-proof shield. Whether a similar difficulty would arise from the coating of the wire with wool ash and charred wool on applying the method to wool cutting, and whether this or other possible difficulties can be easily overcome in an electrical shearer, can be determined only by trial.—Scientific American.

The peaceful village of Orange was the scene of a murderous affray on Wednesday morning, in which Fred Reuter of Santa Ana was killed. The circumstances of the affair, as we have been able to learn them, are as follows: At a ball given on New Year's night in Reuter's hall at Santa Ana, a man named T. B. Hulse, a resident of Orange, became intoxicated, and acted in such a boisterous way that he was ejected from the hall by Reuter. Since then, whenever the men met, they invariably had a wordy war over the matter, and their feelings towards each other became more bitter with the lapse of time. On Wednesday morning, Reuter and a friend went to Orange to purchase irrigating water, and having transacted their business started homeward. They stopped opposite the blacksmith shop to exchange greetings with the smith and while so engaged Hulse and another man drove along the street. Reuter called to Hulse, who replied, "all right; I will be back in a minute." Reuter then said, "Let us settle it right here," whereupon Hulse got out of his wagon and approached him. They used some profane language towards each other, and it ended in Reuter catching hold of Hulse by the neck with his left hand and with his right hand grasping the back of Hulse's head. While in this position Hulse pulled a bull-dog pistol from his hip-pocket and placing it against Reuter's side, fired. The ball penetrated to the heart, and he lived but a few minutes. A coroner's jury convened at Santa Ana and their verdict was to the effect that Reuter came to his death from a pistol shot fired by T. B. Hulse. The latter was arrested and the preliminary examination commenced at Santa Ana yesterday. Theo Lynn Esq. of Anaheim, appearing for the prosecution at the request of Reuter's relatives. Reuter's body was embalmed and will be kept until the arrival of his brother, who went East a few weeks ago. LOS ANGELES MARKETS.

It was James I who invented and brought into fashion the "Lovelock," a curl on the left side of the head longer than the rest. Grasshoppers were venerated in Greece both as sacred and musical. The Athenians wore gold ones in their hair to denote the antiquity of their race. Wine whey is a pleasant and nourishing drink for an invalid. Sweeten half a pint of milk to suit the sick one's taste. Let this come to the boiling point, then pour in a wine glass and a half of sherry wine. Let it stand on the stove to simmer until a curd forms; then strain it through a muslin cloth laid in a colander. Let it stand until it is cool. Serve in a pretty cup, and on the saucer lay two or three wafers and the probability is that they will be eaten with relish. Beef loaf, to be eaten cold for supper, is easily made. To three pounds of round steak chopped fine add one cup of rolled crackers, two eggs, one teaspoonful of pepper, one tablespoonful of salt, one cup of sweet milk, and a piece of butter the size of an egg; make a cleth bag, and after mixing thoroughly so that the seasoning is evenly distributed, put in the bag. Bake for three hours; lay it on a tin plate in the dripping pan, put water in the pan and baste occasionally at first. Thermometrical Record.
