WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...APRIL 21, 1883 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. A CLIMATIC EXCRESCENCE. Last week's storm was a new wrinkle in the climatic experience of this country. It taxes the memory of the oldest inhabitant to remember a west wind of such velocity and sand raising power. There is a tradition that many years ago such winds were not infrequent, and it may be that "history is repeating itself." We could well dismense, however, with these reminders of bygone days, for they are denced unpleasant, to say the least. If any Eastern people arrived in this county last Wednesday, brought hither by a desire to get to a balmy, semitropical climate, their first thoughts were probably in line with the outgirings of Pomaña's famed correspondent—that "this county can turn out more good, reliable harps to the square inch than any other State can to the square mile." But really these disagreeable days are mere climatic excrescences which serve to remind us of how perfect a climate we live in. The storm did little damage in Anaheim. With the exception of the Spanish church—which was "caused over" before the storm—we do not know of a building, barn or outhouse of any kind being toppled over in this bailwick. Not even a windmill was damaged. Other places, however, were not so fortunate. The Times says that "two barns were blown down on the Rosecrans tract, and windmills and outbuildings suffered to a considerable extent. In the vicinity of Downey the wind was terrific, large trees being uprooted, and in some cases the young barley being covered with a layer of sand." The Herald says that "in Los Angeles the wind howled fitfully for about three hours," Eads' Ship Railway. St. Louis, April 17.—The Globe-Democrat says: The proposed ship railway across the Lathrus of Tehuantepec has not been abandoned, as many suppose. Captain Eads, its projector, has returned home, and from him it has been learned that work is being vigorously prosecuted and that the massive railroad will be finished long before De Lesseps' Panama Canal is opened. Six weeks ago a strong symmetric was formed for the purpose of beginning work and making additional surveys, to see if the route selected could be improved upon. Four parties of engineers are already in the field under the general charge of M. Van Bracklin, and a large force of laborers and mechanics are engaged in the work of construction in the neigborhood of Minatitlan, on the Coatzacoacate river, which has been selected as the northern terminus of the railway. The survey of the northern terminal sections has been filed with the Government of Mexico and approved by its officers. Mexico has appointed one of its most distinguished engineers to be associated with the work, in accordance with the terms of its concessions. He is now at Salina Cruz on the Pacific, and has been ordered to repair to Minatitlan. K. L. Corthell, who was Captain Eads' chief engineer in the construction of the Mississippi river jetties, is chief engineer. Sir Edward Reed and John Powler of London and Captain Eads will be the consulting engineers. Colonel James L. Andrews, who built the jetties, and Hon. A. G. Cochran, Captain Eads' attorney, have been in London for the past thirty days to complete arrangements for the advancement of the project. The road will be constructed to carry ships and cargoes of a gross weight of 5000 tons, which will accommodate 90 per cent of the tonnage of the world. In speaking of the prospects of completing the road, Eads said he had not the slightest doubt of the work being finished and the line being open for traffic before the end of 1887. Retaliatory Measures. New York, April 16.—The Journal of Commerce leader thinks it undignified in the Government to threaten reprisals against foreign countries barring out American pork. The State Department has lately given orders to its agents in France to expose and make the most of the French admittitions of wines in retaliation for the protection Chicago, April 17th from New York says: Cent arrival in Boston on farmers, who had been through being dispossessed and holdings in Ireland to this country by the Superintendent Jackson said it was an outrage part of the British or a ship these people in course of time, the Government support. He had heard paupers from the Nebraska had yet been landed law," he said, "its very tion." The Superintendent some time ago a complaint from England came to quarries as to landing ships gave them to understand to go into the emigrant would have to comply of the law, or else they sent back. "Way," that these poor people them over one night in person wants to emigrate his own accord, but if no feeling of independence become a burden on them.

Coming month with Father the acquaintance of sang in McNamara's in December of that year a French mission in this tist Church, but he had and has joined the months ago he was so hum, but on the 8th Salina Morse theatre he ascribes to the ad which was "exacted over" before the storm—we do not know of a building, barn or outhouse of any kind being toppled over in this bailwick. Not even a windmill was damaged. Other places, however, were not so fortunate. The Times says that "two barns were blown down on the Rosecrans tract, and windmills and outbuildings suffered to a considerable extent. In the vicinity of Downey the wind was terrific, large trees being uprooted, and in some cases the young barley being covered with a layer of sand." The Herald says that "in Los Angeles the wind bowled itfully for about three hours, recording at one time 48 miles an hour, the highest rate ever recorded in Los Angeles. At Santa Monica the waves were lashed into a yeasty foam; the great iron buoys were torn from their moorings and hurled upon the shore; a small, unoccupied board house was scattered abroad; the wild geese sat in great droves in La Baliona, refusing to rise and battle against the tempest. Huntsmen could have had their own way in gathering the feathery tribes. The heaviest part of the gale appeared to pass below the city, between Compton and Vernon, where trees were uprooted, and much unpleasantness created. Mr. James Cassidy, who lives near the Green Meadows school house, had a barn 35x05 feet demolished, but saved himself and a pair of colts from harm. A neighbor, Mr. Trusler, had a barn, 35x40 feet, torn down; Mr. Wilson, nearby, had a barn demolished also, while the willows, encalyptus trees and windmills tared badly by losing their perpendicular position." And now let us turn from the above picture to another one, and see how much better off we are than the people in Arkansas, for instance. OZARK (Ark.), April 14th. A disastrous tornado struck White Oak station, on the Little Rock and Fort Smith road, ten miles west of here, yesterday. The wind blew with terrible force. The sides of mountains previously covered with trees now show none standing, large oaks being snapped in two. After the storm came hail, many of the stones being nearly as large as hens' eyes. T. H. Rison, the Postmaster, lost his store and residence. Most of the mail, including $300 currency, was carried away by the wind. Rison was also seriously injured. A number of other stores and residences were leveled to the ground. The storm belt averaged three miles in width. There are morgues of fences anywhere in the neighborhood. Pile after pile of railroad ties were found blown around as if they were straws. Reports of the destruction of property and loss of life came from every direction. Thomas Ross and wife and William Herron, living one mile north of here, were fatally injured and their houses were swept away. W. E. McCain, D. Hall, John Brosure, a Mr. Wallace, Daniel Wade, William Ham and J. Harper lost their houses. The Union Church and schoolhouse are in ruins. At Gay's mill, two miles west, one small residence is all that remains standing. F. J. Lewis's house and half a dozen others are in ruins. A storm of such severity was never before known here. The tornado reached Conway, Faulkner county, this afternoon. No one was killed, but several were badly injured. There are no reports from the interior. The Catholic and Baptist churches were both destroyed. Retaliatory Measures. NEW YORK, April 16 — The Journal of Commerce leader thinks it undignified in the Government to threaten reprisals against foreign countries barring out American pork. The State Department has lately ordered its agents in France to expose and make the most of the French admixtures of wines in retaliation for the protection policy pursued by France against American pork.] Consul Wilson at Nantes is the last to make a topic of this hackneyed theme. He presents an appalling picture of the adulterations practised. From his statement it appears the failure or the success of the grape crop in France has no relation to the amount of wine manufactured in the country, or to its price. Phylloxera is said to have reduced the yield of genuine French wine to the extent of from 5,000,000 to 500,000,000 gallons a year without any perceptible effect on the wine market. By some it is thought the object of these publications is to menace France with war against her wines, unless she resists the prohibition of American pork. He is in favor of establishing a Government laboratory in New York, and subjecting all French wines to the most exacting tests and to graduated tariff rates. This would play a part in his scheme. It is obvious his plan is retaliatory in its nature. It would never have been submitted, but for the offensive action of France toward American pork, and if she should yield on that point the wine testing laboratory would never again be heard of Again, the Journal thinks the fair and honest method for a great nation like ours is to make a commercial treaty, and to this France would readily agree. A Heavenly Visitor. FORT WORTH (Texas), April 15th — From Williams Rison it is reported that at two o'clock this morning a ponderous meteor fell at the outskirts of town, killing several head of cattle and completely destroying the dwelling house of Martinez Garcia, a Mexican heirman, who, with his family, consisting of a wife and five children, were buried beneath the meteor. The greatest consternation prevails. In its descent the meteor resembled a massive ball of fire, and the shock was similar to an earthquake. It is still hot and steaming; imbedded in the earth probably 200 feet, and towards above the surface about 70 feet. It will cover about an acre of ground. The conclusion was terrific, and nearly every window in town was shattered. People were hurled violently from their beds, goods in store-houses were precipitated from the shelves, and everything was thrown into a state of chaos and confusion. No lives were lost, as far as known, except the Mexican herdsman and family, although several buildings ten to the ground and cattle fled in terror in every direction. The air is filled with sulphurous gas. [The above telegram is a hoax, of course. The imaginative press reporter who sent it thought he was doing something very brilliant; but, as Spoonpintype would say, he only succeeded in making a dodged fool of himself.] Ed. Gazette [] Goulish Work. CHICAGO, Ill., April 16 — The various journals here are discussing the methods objectionable to them in the Police Courtsports. In Minnesota the Catholic Church faith halted at the dawnability, purgatory and ception. Coming to month with Father the acquaintance of him sang in McNamara's in December of that year mission in that tist Church; but he had joined with his months ago he was seized; but on the 8th Salma Mose's theatre he ascribes to the ad prescribed the use of it. SAN FRANCISCO A States through District has brought suit against Tin Company; holding land in San Bernardo at $1,000,000; alleging by fraud in which it stated by officers in the United States vies Surveyor General; Office; Geo.H.Timon B.C.Hopkins; Keep United States Surveys C.Writing; United Southern District of cook wife of a Unitary voyer; and Joseph Sullivan of the United States and other persons as stockholders of defeat.

SAN JOSE A California California convened Commander G.W.Representatives tried out.

A San Francisco it is a common place about the hotels that of Nevada; aged shoot his father; but rumor attributes his ties between his父亲 with a too free use.The matter is difficult to obtain Thomas Ross and wife and William Herron, living one mile north of here, were fatally injured and their houses were swept away. W. E. McCain, D. Hall, John Brosuro, a Mr. Wallace, Daniel Wade, William Hann and J. Harper lost their houses. The Union Church and schoolhouse are in ruins. At Gay's mill, two miles west, one small residence is all that remains standing. F. J. Lewis's house and half a dozen others are in ruins. A storm of such severity was never before known here. The tornado reached Conway, Faulkner county, this afternoon. No one was killed, but several were badly injured. There are no reports from the interior. The Catholic and Baptist churches were both destroyed. Simmons Bros., gin-mill is a total wreck. Hilliard & Co.'s planning mill was swept away. The Beuce, Fraenthal & Martin brick block was unroofed and the front of Brown's dug store blown in. Numerous residences are in ruins. "A fall, handsome, splendidly formed woman" is no doubt a nice thing to have about the house, but matrimonial relations with such bits of femininity are not always without thorns, especially if in addition to the attractions mentioned the woman has a high temper and big muscles. Here we have Mrs. Clark, of Waterbury, Connecticut, who, simply because Mr. Clark remonstrated with her for an alleged unlawful intimacy with the Mayor of the city, locked the door of their room, blinded her jealous husband with red pepper, and then whacked him on the head with a policeman's club until his cries brought citizens to the rescue. The Treasury Department has been informed that a quantity of vine cuttings have been imported into the port of New York from China, which Custom-house officers think are infested with phylloxera. There is no law authorizing destruction of such importations. The Treasury Department recognizes the fact that this is a matter of great importance to the vine interests of the country, and will confer with the Agricultural Department on the subject. Freeman, the wretched who two years ago, at Pocasset, Massachusetts, was "inspired" to kill his little daughter as a sacrifice, is not likely to go unwhipt of justice. Since the murder he has been imprisoned in a lunatic asylum, but is now regarded as perfectly sane and he will be arraigned on a charge of murder and we hope will be hanged. He now admits that his inspiration came from the devil. CHICAGO, Ill., April 16.—The various journals here are discussing the methods observed in burying the pauper dead and the warden of the county hospital is made to say that one Chaffee, County undertaker, sells 75 per cent. of the bodies to medical colleges on this and other cities and that his revenue from this source has exceeded $6000 annually. It is also charged by those who have visited potter's field, that the bodies of dead babies have been interred by simply throwing a few shoveltails of earth upon them, and that evidences of this revolting usage were disclosed by skulls and bones being found in various portions of the field with no earth covering them. At a meeting of the Railroad Commissioners on Wednesday, it was decided to take a trip through the interior, for the purpose of obtaining information upon the subject of fares and freights at the various shipping points in the State. The Board ordered that sessions be held at the following places on the dates named: Colton, San Bernardino county, Friday, May 4, 1883; Los Angeles, Monday, May 7th; Bakerfield, Wednesday, May 9th; Visalia, Tulare county, Saturday, May 12th; Fresno, Monday, May 14th; Merced, Tuesday, May 15th; Modesto, Wednesday, May 16th; Stockton, May 18th. SUNDAY amusements in Tombstone are more exciting than elevating. The Epiphany of a late date had the following: "Next Sunday the sporting public of Tombstone will be entertained in a novel manner at Doling's track. It is proposed to match the hairless bear from the Huachucas against three of Tombstone's toughest canines. In addition, several horse races will take place in which several of our local flyers will be entered." SAN FRANCISCO, April 19.—Dispatches received to-day from Presno, Vallejo, Merced, Stockton, Hollister, Salinas, Sonoma, Modesto, Santa Barbara, San Jose, San Luis Obispo, Colusa, Redding, Napa, Santa Cruz Marysville, Petaluma and other points in the State, bring information that the rain has been quite general in those sections. Crops and wheat generally look well and have been greatly benefited. Rain has fallen in this city during most of the day. CHICAGO, April 17th. — A Tribune special from New York says: Speaking of the recent arrival in Boston of 600 evicted Irish farmers, who had become impoverished through being dispossessed of their homes and holdings in Ireland, and who were sent to this country by the British Government, Superintendent Jackson, at Castle Garden, said it was an outrageous proceeding on the part of the British or any other Government to ship these people here, whom, in the course of time, the Government will have to support. He had heard of the landing of pawners from the Neworina, but said none had yet been landed at this port. "The law," he said, "is very plain on this question." The Superintendent further said that some time ago a committee or delegation from England came to him and made inquiries about landing such people. He then gave them to understand that if they choose to go into the emigration business they would have to comply with the strict letter of the law, or else their emigrants would be sent back. "Way," said he, "the money that these poor people get will not keep them over one night in New York. If a person wants to emigrate let him come of his own accord, but if he is sent out he has no feeling of independence and is sure to become a burden on the community. CHICAGO, April 17th. — The Tribune's New York special says: Peter Alpirese Segun, a native of Canada, who was once a Catholic priest, was required today by Justice Patterson to find bail in $1000 for his good behavior for four months, his wife Sarah (nee Molholland) having proved that on Thursday last, at their home, 105 Bedford street, while drunk, he threatened to kill her, caught her by the throat and made her fear for her safety. Segun has cut a sorry figure in the Police Courts and newspaper reports. In Minnesota, in 1880, he forsook the Catholic Church because, he says, his faith halted at the dogmas of Papal infallibility, purgatory and the immaculate conception. Coming to New York, he was a month with Father McNamara and made the acquaintance of his present wife, who sang in McNamara's choir. He married her in December of that year. He then opened a French mission in the Belford-street Baptist Church, but he has now left that sect and has joined the Independents. Two months ago he was sent to an embriate asylum, but on the 8th mist he preached in Salmii Morse's theatre. His recent downfall has apprehended the use of brandy. LOS ANGELES MARKETS.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 13th.—The United States, through District Attorney Hiborn, has brought suit against the San Jacinto Tin Company, holding a large tract of mineral land in San Bernardino county, valued at $1,000,000, alleging that it was obtained by officers in the Land Department of the United States, viz. Lauren Upson, ex-Surveyor General; E Conway, clerk in his office; Geo. H. Thompson, Deputy Surveyor; B C. Hopkins, Keeper of Archives of the United States Surveyor-General's Office; B C. Whiting, United States Attorney for the Southern District of California; Ila Hanock wife of a United States Deputy Surveyor, and Joseph S. Wilson, Commissioner of the United States General Land Office, and other persons said to be now or lately stockholders of defendant corporation. A double homicide occurred in Stockton on Monday, Henry Emil Johnson, a backsmith, and a native of Finland and James Donnelly, met in a grocery store near the Insane Asylum, and fought with knives, each killing the other. The trouble grew out of a dispute about a wagon, which Donnelly bought from Johnson, and afterwards refused to pay for. They had a dispute early in the afternoon, and subsequently Donnelly threw a bottle at Johnson. The latter started to obtain a warrant for Donnelly's arrest, when they met, with the result stated. Johnson received a terrine gas in the right breast, and died in a few minutes. Donnelly was cut in the center of the breast. He walked into another apartment and fell dead. SAN JOSE, April 17th.—The Grand Council of the American Legion of Honor of California convened here to day with Grand Commander G. W. Aberstein in the chair, representatives from 57 castles were present. The reports of the Grand Commander and Grand Secretary were read. The report of the Secretary showed that this State paid in $140,000 to the benefit fund last year, and received benefits $104,000, leaving a credit of $36,000, while Texas has overdrawn $124,000. Number of castles, 88; total membership, 3,727. A committee consisting of M. Eyre, W. S. Brown, W. F. Huester, G. W. Dixon and A P. Murten was appointed on resolutions with reference to the Supreme Council. A San Francisco telegram of Tuesday says it is a common report on the street ad about the hoteis that a son of Senator Fair, of Nevada, aged about 20, attempted to shoot his father, but was prevented. The rumor attributes his act to domestic difficulties between his father and mother, coupled with a too free use of liquor by young Fair. The matter is being kept very quiet and it is difficult to obtain any definite information. Post-Office Letter List.

Milwaukee, Wis., April 17th.—George Schelier, accused of setting fire to the Newhall House on the morning of January 10th last, was to-day acquitted by the jury. Five ballots were taken and only one of the jurors was for conviction all that time, and he finally gave in because Judge Mallory instructed that, if there was any doubt in his mind, he must give the prisoner the benefit of the doubt. The Court-room re-echoed with cheers when the verdict was announced. Milwaukee, April 17th.—A Jefferson (Wis.) dispatch says Judge Bennett to day sentenced John Mushach and his wife Barbara, who were convicted of the murder of Kodiak's mother in this city, on the night of December 6th, to the State Prison for life, the first day and one day of each year, corresponding to the day of the month that they committed the murder, to be passed in solitary confinement. Onions are a costly thing to eat now. In commercial parlance they are strong.

Onions are generally scarce and high at the close of the winter season, but this year is an exceptional one.—S. F. Call, April 14th. Boston, April 17th.—The bicycle found a new use last night.

THE GREAT STORM Of January 12th, 1882, which injured or destroyed some of Windmills in Los Angeles County proved conclusively that the CALIFORNIA WINDMILL is the only one that can stand, uninjured, a heavy sale. Although some of nearly every other manufacture was destroyed, so far as known, one of the California Mills put up by the undersigned occupied 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 ADJUSTABLE STROKE (4 different lengths) in its ease and malleability 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 J. T. STEWART, AGENT FOR THE Stover Windmill FOR Pumping Water and Grinding Feed. EVERY MAN HIS OWN MILLER. One set of hurries is guaranteed to grind $000 bushels, and a new set, replaced at a cost of $150, can be attached to any mill. The Winger Improved Feed Grinder (cost $20) operated by pumping windmills has proved a decided success. I keep a full stock of Pumps, Cylinders and everything belonging to the pump business.
