WEEKLY GAZETTE. County Official Paper. SATURDAY JUNE 10, 1892 Among the innovations which a progressive Eastern railroad corporation has introduced is the stationing of an official at their depot in Philadelphia whose sole duty it is to answer questions which may be propounded to him by travelers. People from the country when landed in one of those huge railway stations are apt to get bewildered, and it will be to them a great relief to go to an official in the depot and ask a dozen or two of questions with a surety of getting correct and courteous answers. At the meeting of the Academy of Sciences in San Francisco Df. Bohr presented a red snow plant, found nowhere on the continent save in the Sierra. A remarkable property of this parasite is that when dry it drinks up water with a sizzling noise. Dr. Kellogg exhibited a parasitical mistletoe, growing in bunches on the limbs of the juniper or digger pine. The seeds burst with a loud noise, like a pistol shot, and being covered with a sticky substance, are showered about and distributed on the plumage of the birds, on which they become temporarily fastened. That the planets are inhabited is now settled, for the Deseret News, of Salt Lake City, Mormon organ, says its church has the advantage of science—it has knowledge directly given by revelation from the source of all true intelligence, and it is to the effect that the celestial worlds are inhabited—millions of them. They form the abode of the offspring of Deity. Birthplaces, probation planets; prisonhouses; spirit spheres; paradises; gehennas; homes for the resurrected; glorified sins for perfected and celestialized intelligences; all moving in their respective orbits, governed by fixed laws adapted to their condition and that of their WESTMINSTER ITEMS. Mr. David McFadden and family have gone to the San Juan Hot Springs and intend to spend several weeks there. Mr. Henry Wayman, whose health has been very poor for the past year or more, started for the East Tuesday morning to be gone three or four months. We hope to see him return much improved. School Trustee election last Saturday. We didn't vote, but heard that out of a voting population of about one hundred and fifty, six votes were cast and that Mr. Jas. McPherson was elected. We saw a card upon the store Wednesday afternoon. Saw it was something new and atopped to read it. Found it to be a notice of Democratic Primary Election. We don't know much about such things, but have an idea it is a place where men go and pledge themselves to vote for anybody that the Convention of the party may nominate. This election was announced to be held on Tuesday, but we couldn't find whether there had been anybody elected or if there had been any election. So we guess there aren't many of that kind of men around here. Hope not, anyhow. Mrs. Leffler corrected our statement in regard to her rosebush. She has already gathered this year 725 at one time, 1,150 at another, beside several hundred for visitors and others. Making over 2,000 all told. It is a La Marque. This is its fourth year. Mrs. L. feels proud of it as a specimen of what we can raise down here in our alkali. Mrs. John F. Marquis and Miss M. A. McCoy have opened a boarding house at 124 Spring street, Los Angeles, where they may be found by their friends. Rev. F. A. Field and wife have been visiting their friends in Westminster the past week. Mr. Field was former pastor of the Congregational church of this place but left us on account of his health. Robert Bothwick finished a well for John Bixby last Friday, getting 1 inch flow with 7-inch pipe and is now at work on another one further south.

COLTON: May 6 about 5 o'clock, a man red at Agua Man this plane. The bill which has passed the New York Legislature and has just been signed by the Governor, authorizing joint stock fire insurance companies to issue policies providing for loss or damage by wind storms or tornadoes, is a timely one, in view of the recent destructive tornadoes throughout the "States." The year has been one of frequent and destructive hurricanes. Scores of lives have been lost and thousands of buildings and farms have been wrecked in them. The ravages of fire for ten years in many localities have not equalled those of wind in a few hours. It would be leaving open one of the chief sources of dangers to property not to provide for insurance against cyclones in those parts of our country where they are an annual visitant. The only absurd thing about the whole matter is that people can be found to populate a section of country where they are liable to be blown into "smitheroens" at any moment. Under the new French burial law the right of a Frenchman or Frenchwoman to choose his or her funeral rites begins with their sixteenth year. Until they attain that age they are to be buried with the ceremonial of the Church in which they were baptized, unless with the consent of their parents they have been converted to another faith. The same general rule holds good in after-life in every case when they die without a written declaration of their wishes, which must be deposited at the mairie within twelve hours of decease. In case of physical inability to sign such a document, a declaration to that effect bearing the signatures of two witnesses will be accepted, but the witnesses must neither be doctors, midwives, nurses, ministers of religion nor members of religious orders. Strict provision is made to prevent any disrespect being shown to civil funerals by the local authorities, and all who oppose the execution of the wishes of the deceased are liable to be proceeded against under the penal code. New York, June 6.—The World says: A package containing checks and commercial paper of the value of $1,000,000 was found on May 28th by John Bran on the shore of Ravenswood, L. I.

The following resolution was offered by Supervisor Rogers and adopted: Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of Los Angeles county deem it advisable and to the best interests of the county, that the present Court House property be sold and the per cent applied towards the erection of a new Court House; and the Clerk is hereby authorized to advertise for bids for the Court House property; the Board reserving the right to reject any or all bids—the bids to be received at the July meeting of the Board. On motion of Supervisor Hannon, Resolved, That the District Attorney be and he is hereby instructed to take the proper legal steps to effect the segregation and partition of the property known as the jail property between the city and county.

I. John, who is 15 years old, was walking in his father's garden when he caught sight of a small brown package lying within half a foot of the water. A few days after Mr. Bran was visited by United States Deputy Marshal Bernhardt, to whom he showed the package. Upon opening it Mr. Bernhardt discovered checks, coupons and other papers of the apparent value of nearly $1,000,000. The checks were mostly made out to the order of Messrs. MacElvain Bros. of 53 Broadway. Mr. Bernhardt concluded that the package was the proceeds of a robbery, and decided to investigate the matter. He discovered that the original firm of MacElvain Bros. was no longer in existence, but that one of its members, Reed E. MacElvain, was doing business. When visited by the Deputy Marshal and shown the package, Mr. MacElvain expressed unbounded astonishment. He acknowledged the contents of the package to be of great value, and said that he had thought that the papers had been securely locked up in his safe. NEW YORK, June 6th.—Touching the stories of Grant's bankruptcy an excellent authority has the following: "General Grant told me that from England, as well as from China, Germany, Japan and from other countries, he has received letters and telegrams asking whether these rumors were true, in some cases, and in others stating the regret that the news had caused among his friends, and that all this had assumed a character quite disagreeable to him. He told me that he had not invested a single cent in the stock speculations in which it was supposed he had lost his capital, and that these rumors had no other object than to affect certain stock in the market for the purpose of depreciating the former. That for a long time past he had made up his mind not to contradict any rumors published about him, and that for this reason he had not contradicted in a formal manner those which referred to his supposed financial ruin, but that privately he had to tell his friends that it was entirely false, and that he had not lost a single cent in the operations attributed to him." Supervisor Egan nominated J. N. Hewes, Supervisor Rogers nominated J. M. Guinn, and Supervisor Prager nominated W. J. Brodrick as members of the Board of Education. Messrs. Hewes and Brodrick were elected. THURSDAY; June 8. In the matter of the petition for a new school district to be called the "Strong District," the case was continued until July 5th. In the matter of petition for the removal of obstructions of Centinela road—Compromised, and parties passed deeds. The petition for the Gridley road, Artesia, was granted. Adjourned until Monday, July 3d. The Democratic Primaries. There were 125 votes cast at the primary election in Anaheim on Tuesday—an unprecedented number. The struggle which called out this large vote was between Ross and Sepulveda, the candidates for the Democratic nomination for Judge of the Supreme Court. The result of the election was as follows: ROSS TICKET. D. Evey...83 H. Werder...82 J. S. Gardiner...84 Theo. Lynill...83 T. L. Gandon...84 SEPULVEDA TICKET. A. Langenberger...45 F. A. Korn...48 R. W. Scott...49 A. Bittner...46 Theo. Rimpau...46 The contest in Los Angeles was a bitter one, but 26 of the 32 delegates elected are for Sepulveda. He will also receive the vote of Santa Ana, Compton, Cienega, Florence, Santa Monica, Downey, Old Mission, San Antonio, Ballona, Norwalk, Vernon, Sepulveda, San Fernando, Los Nietos, Cahuenga, Elizabeth Lake, Fountain Valley, Garden Grove, Los Virginia, Monte Vista, San Jose, San Juan. The County Convention to nominate delegates to the State Convention will be held in Los Angeles to-day. Thomas Ashcroft committed suicide at Riverside by cutting his throat with a razor. Unfortunate speculations in property was the cause. SAN BERNARDINO clock this morning Third streets was the edy. J.

Bishop Mora of Los Angeles was thrown from a spring wagon near Lemocore, and is suffering seriously from concussion of the brain in consequence. He is still in a critical condition. In Sierra valley the grasshoppers are putting in their appearance in full force. Millions are hatching out on the big island. The citizens are making preparations to roll them when they can do so. A great many can be destroyed that way. Chas. J. Gommer, Receiving Teller of the Bank of California, committed suicide on Wednesday morning at his residence, 824 Sutter street, San Francisco, by shooting himself through the head. He had lost considerable money in stock operations, but his account with the bank is said to be all straight. Horticultural Officer Cooke calls attention to the fact that in addition to the codling moth, scale insects, caterpillars, canker worms, etc., at least four new species of insect pests, not heretofore known in the orchards of the State, have appeared and are noticed this spring, which threaten the apricot, cherry and peach crops to an alarming extent. SAN FRANCISCO, June 5.—Shortly after midnight Jas. McNally was shot dead by A. J. Reardon. McNally and John C. Meehan, both in liquor, entered Reardon's saloon at the corner of Army street and the San Bruno road. Meehan began quarrelling with Reardon about a debt he owed him. Reardon ordered them out and a row ensued. Reardon was knocked down and kicked by his assailants, when he fired, hitting McNally near the heart, killing him. Meehan continued kicking Reardon, when the latter's thirteen-year-old daughter ran out of her bedroom and attacking Meehan with a beer glass, gashing his head, when he fled the premises. COLTON, May 6th.—Yesterday evening, about 5 o'clock, a mysterious shooting occurred at Agua Mansa, about one mile from this place. Two children, Josef Salazar THE PHYLLOXERA. A Species Discovered on the Roots of a Willow. [Sacramento Record-Union.] A representative of the Record-Union called at the office of the chief horticultural officer. In answer to his inquiries Mr. Cooke stated that some three weeks ago he received from Oscar Zyschokle, of Bakersfield, Kern county, a vial containing pieces of willow root that were infested by minute insects. On examination he found them to be a species of phylloxera, and so informed Mr. Z.; also, requesting him to examine the ground around the willow to learn if there were any grapevines or grape roots near Mr. Z wrote again on May 19th: "In regard to the insects I sent you on the willow root, I must say there are a few grapevines three or four yards from the willow. They are the remains of old nursery stock I had four or five years ago. They are small and insignificant, but nevertheless they are green and thrifty, while the willow has not such a dense foliage as its suckers, or the trees near by; however, I will make further investigation and report to you." Mr. Z writes on the 24th of May that he had examined the roots of the grapevines carefully but could not find any traces of insect life similar to that on the willow root; also, that there was a small water ditch between the grapevines and the willow. Additional specimens were also received, and after careful examinations, Mr. Cooke says they are unidentified a species of phylloxera, but he is not yet prepared to say that they are the phylloxera vastatrix of the grapevines. (The specimens received are mature females and eggs.) However, if they are not the phylloxera vastatrix, they are a closely allied species. Parties interested in the cultivation of the vine should investigate the matter, as it may be of great importance. Mr. Cooke has also received specimens of a species of beetle, from Solano and Sacramento counties, that are damaging the grapevines by riddling the foliage. They are the grapevine flea-beetle, italica chalybea, and feed upon the wild and cultivated Roof Painting. Winbigler & Bro., late of Memphis, Tenn., have introduced into this county a fire and water proof cement paint for painting roofs which is proving itself to be very much more economical and durable than the ordinary paint. Among the large property-owners of Los Angeles who are prepared to speak in favor of this paint are ex-Governor Downey, Nand, Weyne & Co., John Jones, W. H. Stoll and Moso & Co., and in Anaheim Messra. Konig, Kroeger and others have tested this paint. All orders sent to P.O. Box 1187, Los Angeles, will be promptly attended to.

One Thousand Men TO EAT LUNCH with Reardon about a debt he owed him. Reardon ordered them out and a row ensued. Reardon was knocked down and kicked by his assailants, when he fired, hitting McNally near the heart, killing him. Meehan continued kicking Reardon, when the latter's thirteen-year-old daughter ran out of her bedroom and attacking Meehan with a beer glass, gashing his head, when he fled the premises. Colton, May 6th.—Yesterday evening, about 5 o'clock, a mysterious shooting occurred at Agua Mansa, about one mile from this place. Two children, Josefa Salazar and Cecilia Jaramillo, about fourteen and twelve years of age, were planting onions on the ranch of Juan Salazar, the father of the oldest girl. There was a shotgun discharged from a brush fence. The shot struck the eldest girl in the index finger of the left hand and in the right thumb and seriously wounding Cecilia in both hands and throat. Drs. F. P. Truxell and Ozias were called upon and dressed the wounds of the children and found it necessary to amputate two of the forelingers and thumb of the left hand of Cecilia Jaramillo. The shooting has caused a great deal of excitement among the Spanish population of Agua Mansa, but as yet no clue to the perpetrator can be had, although the authorities are looking the matter up. SAN FRANCISCO, June 8th.—A large proportion of delegates to the Democratic State Convention are in this city. A careful comparison shows Hearst's strength to be about sixty short of a sufficient number to nominate him. The forces of Johnson, Taylor, Berry and Stoneman are combining against Hearst. The knowing ones claim to be in possession of information justifying the conclusion that Hearst's strength has reached its maximum, at least fifty short of nomination. Some high authority claims to be prepared to say that the great prize lays between Stoneman and Johnson. Arrangements are being made to combine the strength of Berry and Stoneman, giving all to the one having the best chance of success. Practically the Convention is now in session here. Clay W. Taylor has rooms at the Palace; Hearst at No. 80 Nevada Blok, and Johnson at large. It is said here that if Hearst is beaten in the Convention he will make a record of submission to the will of the majority, which will be certain to place him in the lead for United States Senator, if the Democrats have the call in the Legislature of 1885. SAN BERNARDINO, June 8.—About 8 o'clock this morning the corners of C. and Third streets was the scene of a bloody tragedy. J. Taylor and J. A. Peterson, partners in the Burning Moscow mine, of Calico District, had just left Starkie's Hotel, where they had been at breakfast, and were crossing C. street, at the corner of Third, when a difference of opinion arose between them about their mine. As it is supposed, Paterson charged some unfairness, and a few words passed, when Taylor drew a Colt's five-shooter, forty-two calibre, and commene- WASHINGTON, June 5.—Thief Justice Carter and Judges James and Hagner, constituting the District Supreme Court in bank, to-day rendered a decision upon the last motion filed by Reed on Guiteau's behalf. The Chief-Justice delivered the decision as follows: "In the case of Guiteau, the Judges has latened to the argument in the case have come to the conclusion that they have exhausted their powers upon it; that they have heard is patiently, fully and fairly, and that reargument would bring no other conclusion than that already arrived at, and they decline to reopen the case for argument." Guiteau continues to cherish hopes. It is rumored that Reed will wait until the day set for execution before applying for a writ of habeas corpus to the Supreme Court, and thus delay the execution. CALUTTA, June 5.—It is stated that the Khonda, an aboriginal tribe in the Central Provinces, have taken Bhowra Patra, the chief town of a tribe called the Cultahs, whom the Khonda's accuse of agrarian encroachments. They robbed the treasury and murdered over four hundred people. Portions of the hair and flesh of the victims were distributed among the Hill Khonda to induce them to join the revolt. PETERSBURG (Va.), June 6th.—The storm which devastated Northampton county, North Carolina, on Sunday, also swept over Southampton county, this State, demolishing houses and running crops. Some hailstones were said to be a foot long, and to weigh a pound and a half. One woman will probably die from fright. COLD WATER, Mich., June 6th.—Ex-Chief Engineer Drake of the Fire Department was held yesterday for trial in the Circuit Court on a charge of burning buildings last summer, so as to prove the efficiency of the city Fire Department. NEW YORK, June 6th.—F. J. Moses, ex-Governor of South Carolina, pleaded guilty WANTED. One Thousand Men TO EAT LUNCH WITH P. D.

J. Taylor and J. A. Peterson, partners in the Burning Moscow mine, of Calico District, had just left Starkie's Hotel, where they had been at breakfast, and were crossing C. street, at the corner of Third, when a difference of opinion arose between them about their mine. As it is supposed, Paterson charged some unfairness, and a few words passed, when Taylor drew a Colt's five-shooter, forty-two calibre, and commenced shooting at Peterson, who was unarmed. Peterson exclaimed: "Don't shoot, John." But Taylor fired three shots in rapid succession, all taking effect in Peterson's body and head. A Mr. Hartman, who was standing near them, attempted to take the pistol from Taylor, when he fired at Hartman, the ball passing through his coat at the waist and cutting a button off his vest, but with no further damage. He then ran a few steps, and placing the pistol to his own breast fired, the ball taking effect in his left breast, and one inch from the nipple. Dr. Rene was called, but in about ten minutes Peterson was dead, and Taylor will probably follow soon. There is considerable mystery attached to the above, the two men having been the best of friends. PORTLAND, June 6th.—The count to noon shows that last night's estimates were correct. The State Republican ticket is certainly elected. George's friends claim his re-election as Governor by 2,000. Returns are in sufficient to make an estimate on the Legislature. There is no perceptible falling off in the Republican vote, and as the last Legislature was Republican, the probabilities are strongly in favor of this Legislature being Republican also. The Democrats claim that the Legislature is in doubt, but concede George's election and most of the Republican State ticket. PORTLAND, June 7th, 9 P.M.—The Legislature is evidently Republican by two majority. Returns from the remote counties may increase it six or seven. The line to Eastern Oregon is still down, owing to high water. Mail advices indicate that the Democratic majorities in that section will be smaller than usual, and yesterday's figures on the majority for the State Republican ticket are probably too low. 10 P.M.—Josephine and Coos counties are just heard from. They send Republican Representatives, and this gives Republicans a working majority in both Houses. COLD WATER, Mich., June 6th.—Ex-Chief Engineer Drake of the Fire Department was held yesterday for trial in the Circuit Court on a charge of burning buildings last summer, so as to prove the efficiency of the city Fire Department. NEW YORK, June 6th.—F. J. Moses, ex-Governor of South Carolina, pleaded guilty to-day to petty larceny, and was sentenced to the Penitentiary for six months. LOS ANGELES MARKETS.

Hippolyte Cahen, Selling Out. Notice. As I anticipate making some changes in my business, I will from this day sell all my stock of Drygoods at Cost. Groceries at lowest market rates. Center Street, Anaheim, Cal. Being satisfied that the credit business is detrimental both to the merchant and consumer, I have positively resolved to stop it after the 1st day of September, 1881, and confine myself to a strictly cash basis. For this purpose I will sell goods at the lowest market rates possible, for Cash or Produce, and feel assured that it will be for the benefit of all parties. Thanking my customers for their liberal patronage in the past, I would respectfully solicit a continuance of the same in the future. All persons knowing themselves to be indebted to me will please come forward and make a settlement at their earliest convenience. THE GREAT STORM at Cost. Groceries at lowest market rates. Center Street, Anaheim, Cal. THE GREAT STORM Of January 12th, 1882, which injured or destroyed several Winnipeg in Los Angeles County proved conclusively that the CALIFORNIA WINDMILL is the only one that can stand, uninjured, a heavy gale. Although some of nearly every other manufacture was destroyed, so far as known every one of the California Mills put up by the undersigned escaped injury. These Mills are so strongly made and so perfectly self-regulating that, when properly put up, it is almost impossible for a storm to injure them. It is also superior to other Mills in having an ADJUSTABLE STROKE (4 different lengths) in the ease and nonadjustment of its work, in the beauty of its design and finish and in the marvelously low price at which it is sold. I will furnish these Mills with Pumps and Tanks, and set them up in complete running order at the lowest possible rates. For further particulars call upon or address N. H. SMITH, Anaheim, Cal., The General Agent for Los Angeles County. ANAHEIM HOTEL. A. GWIN, Proprietor, Center Street, - Anaheim.
