WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...OCT. 4, 1884 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. As alleged man has made a proposal of marriage to Belva Lockwood, the ceremony to take place when she is elected President. He need not fear an action for breach of promise. One month from today the political fate of Belva Lockwood and all the other candidates will be decided. What an agony of suspense she and the rest of them must be in! Elections are epileptic. The contagion might probably attack some of the Presidential candidates. If Butler would elope with Mrs. Lockwood, and Cleveland with Maria Halpin, they could return after election and all would be forgiven. If an individual is bent upon crime, nothing can stop him. That the ingenuity of inherent badness can overcome every obstacle is shown in the case of a criminal who was convicted in a New York court of pocket-picking. Both his hands had been amputated, and he used his teeth in extracting the watch from his victim's pocket. James L. Wilde, Superintendent of the Railway Mail Service, has addressed a letter to the public, admonishing writers to be careful in addressing letters to Washington Territory and Wyoming Territory and not to designate each place by the initials W.T., as letters are often sent to the wrong Territory when so addressed. The telegraph reports that the transfer books of the Union Pacific railroad company show three million shares in the name of Jay Gould. The market price of Union Pacific yeatday was $54 per share, which would make the value of Gould's stock $162,000,000 a nice little plum. But it is possible that the nearness of election has begun to affect the telegraph with its alleged proclivity for distorting figures. A DISTRUCTIVE BOOK It is doubtfully Phariseal to thank late that you are not as other men are, but one may express thankfulness at not being placed as other men are without being liable to be charged with over-saintliness. The resident of this southern country can heartily congratulate himself on the kindness of fate in directing him thither and permitting him to remain here. This country is irreproachable in its natural aspect, and the elemental disturbances which make the plans of men gang aft agree in other parts of our common country do not figure at all in the ups and downs of life under Southern California skies. The cyclones, the floods, the fatal heat and the fatal cold are all unknown, and even earthquakes do not raise the commotion on this coast which they do in New England. In the early part of September a cyclone swept over the northern portion of Wisconsin; fourteen inches of rain fell in 24 hours, and the wind and water dulled $14,000,000 worth of damage to property. From a description of the storm we quote the following: The city of Chippewa Falls is a considerable sufferer. It is heated of having the largest sawmill under one roof in the world, which frequently cut 300,000 feet in a single day; while the Chippewa river from this point to San Claire was lined with similar institutions, all of which are now total wrecks, and a long time must elapse before they can be rebuilt. It is the custom to store the logs previous to sawing, and until such time as they are needed, in various "booms" constructed in "pockets" along the banks of the river; and the unexpected burating these booms on Thursday morning. The instant, hurled 400,000,000 monarchs of the forest with irresistible force against bridges, dams, houses and mills, crushing the strongest structure into fragments as if built of straw. The crash came without a moment's warning. It was two o'clock when the first shock was felt, and before dawn the destruction was complete. So suddenly had the blow come that men on the watch had scarcely time to escape. Families were carried away, their dwelling houses proving their floating biera. The noise and din occasioned by the advance of the availance of liberated logs is described as having been terrible. Huge trees were shot no thirty or forty feet into the air, falling only to rise again. The grunting and shrieking of the logs as they moved in a seething mass completely drowned all cries for succor, and the gloom of night increased the horror of the situation. At Ken Claire 150 houses were destroyed, and the drainage would have been much greater had not a "jam" occurred at a spot called the "Delia," about a mile and a half running at his own account, and is making things lively. In addition to a large amount of coal shipped weekly to Los Angeles and The telegraph reports that the transfer books of the Union Pacific railroad company show three million shares in the name of Jay Gould. The market price of Union Pacific yeast day was $71 per share, which would make the value of Gould's stock $162,000,000 a nice little plum. But it is possible that the nearness of election has begun to affect the telegraph with its alleged proclivity for distorting figures. The path of the reformer is hard. The virtuous and eloquent Grady, having forsaken Tamany and Cleveland from the very best of mates, finds his political course unstrucled and denounced. And, worst of all, while delivering a speech at Albany in Butler's interest, he was assailed with contumely and egg by an organized mob in the audience. The indignity loses much of its sting because of the character of the mob. They were employees on the new capitol, and were, of course, "ogged on" by the bosses whose occupation is gone if Grady succeeds in his work. It takes a man with any quantity of brain to be a news editor on a big daily. And the brains must be in the right part of his anatomy. Whenever we find an item like the following in such a paper as the Bulletin the conclusion is irresistible that the news editor's brain has shipped down to his feet: "Stingrays trouble bathers at San Bernardino." Are stingrays indigenous to the waters of the ocean, or are they to be found amid the orange glove or burning deserts of San Bernardino? The Third Annual Convention of California Frant Growers convened in San Francisco on Monday, the attendance being small. We should think so. It must be that theoretical book farmers are in the ascendancy in the organization, because every practical horticulturist knows that this is the worst possible time of year to leave the farm even for the laudable purposes of the convention. The grape grower is making wine or making raisins, the growers of other fruit are hauling it to the cannery or are drying it, themselves, and it is only the "gentleman farmer" who can journey to the metropolis and swap experiences with his fellows. There is a time for all things, and this is clearly not the time for a fruit-grower's convention. The revision of the Bible is completed, and the work will be issued next spring. The work of revision has occupied fourteen years and it is to be inferred that the changes in the text are as many and radical as in the revised Testament. But this is a delicate subject to dwell upon. We remember quoting in our editorial columns some of the changes made in the New Testament, before it was published, and we were immediately held up to scorn by several correspondents of esteemed contemporaries as an infidel and a nice little plum. But it is possible that the nearness of election has begun to affect the telegraph with its alleged proclivity for distorting figures. At Kau Claire 150 houses were destroyed, and the damage would have been much greater had not a "jama" occurred at a spot called the "Dells," about a mile and a half above the city, which arrested the progress of an enormous mass of logs, estimated at 250,000,000 feet. As it was, the water and a number of fugitive logs created considerable havoc, destroying the gas works and the machinery for the dynamo-electric light. It took dismal enough there now, and the fortunate storekeepers who had a supply of lamps and oil are reaping a rich harvest. Only one bridge out of twenty is left on the Chippewa River, and the railroad line from Kau Claire to Wabasha has been almost entirely obliterated. It is stated that six months must shapen before trains on that route will again be running. Some scenes, were it not for their tragic aspects, would be conical. A man with a large family moved out of his house the day before the flood came. The force of the logs threw his house on its side, and on the Sunday following he was seen moving his effects back into his house, which still retained its lateral position. His garden patch was covered to a depth of fifteen feet with huge logs. It was quite possible he saw that the labor of removing the valuable debris from his land would resuppose him for a portion of his loss. At all events, he did not appear to feel very much distressed, the weather being warm. THE FREE TRADERS SATISFIED Nobody can explain the Democratic platform better than the men who made it, and chief of these is Henry Watterson of Kentucky. In a speech at Louisville that accomplished gentleman and honest politician said: The National Committee which lost us the election of 1889 by running away from the issue of revenue reform is not now, as it was then, in the hands of protectionists. The result was that the subcommittee of eight which made the platform, excepting General Batter, arrived at a final decision which carried not merely the judgment, but the hearty approval of each of the parties to it. In the general committee some feeling areas and a sharp contest was had upon two propositions, the first being to strike out the word "exclusively" from the declaratory cause, and the second relating to the selection of a permanent chairman to report the platform to the convention. It was contended by Mr. Malcolm Hay of Pennsylvania and other protectionists, who supported him, that the word "exclusively" was synonymous with the word "only." Nobody disputed this, but the friends of revenue reform defended the tariff planks of 1873 and 1880 accepted the issue made by the other side, and when a vote was taken retaining the word "exclusively" by 18 years to 1884. Its significance was clearly understood. The subsequent election of Mr. Morrison to present the report to the convention answers the charge that Randall had the committee in the hollow of his hand and got all he ever wanted or wished for. He is satisfied, however, that ends the dispute between him and me. I too am satisfied, and so are Mr. Carlie and Mr. Morrison, and those who acted with us and think as we do. In 1889, a false issue as to the Republicans was felt, and before dawn the destruction was complete. So suddenly had the blow come that men on the watch had scarcely time to escape. Families were carried away their dwelling-houses proving their floating bitters. The noise and din occasioned by the advance of avalanches of liberated logs is described as having been terrible. Huge trees were shot on thirty or forty feet into the air, falling only to rise again. The growing and shrinking of the logs as they moved in a seething mass completely drowned all cries for sugar, and the bloom of night increased the horror of the situation. At Kau Claire 150 houses were destroyed, and the damage would have been much greater had not a "jama" occurred at a spot called the "Dells," about a mile and a half above the city, which arrested the progress of an enormous mass of logs, estimated at 250,000,000 feet. As it was, the water and a number of fugitive logs created considerable havoc, destroying the gasworks and the machinery for the dynamo-electric light.

It was quite possible he saw that the labor of removing the valuable debris from his land would resuppose him for a portion of his loss. At all events, he did not appear to feel very much distressed, the weather being warm. THE FREE TRADERS SATISFIED Mr. John Cordell and family are about to move to Carbondale. They will occupy Mr. Harris's house. Mr. Cordell intends to devote his attention to coal-mining this winter. Two sons of Mr. Hughes of this place, and nephews of the Russian bath man of Los Angeles, have recently arrived here from England, where they had been engaged in mining. They are assisting their father in the same business here and are very much pleased with their mines and, in fact, with everything in general. Mr. Sears met with an accident on Wednesday. A halky team backed a load of posts intended for the Santa Clara mine over one of the grades in the Silverado canyon. The accident occurred a short distance below the residence of Mr.J.B.Julian. Fortunately no bones were broken. Onthe same afternoon your correspondent had a "break down" inthe same vicinity,and it wasn't a good day for accidents either. On last Saturday or Sundaythe school house at this place was entered by some boys who helped themselves liberally to such articles as lead pencils,slate pencils,pens and chalk.Last there might be some doubt as to who they perpetrated were,一of them wrote his name onthe blackboard. The apiaries in this and adjoining canyons have turned out—I don't know how many tons ofthe purest and clearest "honey"the past season.Were honey only a reasonable price our bee-men would indeed rejoice.As it is,honey is almost a drug inthe market and their only show is to hold on for better prices.I have heard of honey selling as low as three or tour cents,a pound,and this while so-called syrups and nauseating mozzarella sell at from ninety cents to a dollar gallon.How true it is that there is no accounting for tastes.Did all think as I do onthe subject,the prices would be reversed.For what somescene,taste and flavorthe syrups cannot be mentioned inthe same daywith pure mountain honey,and it is a mysa- The revision of the Bible is completed, and the work will be issued next spring. The work of revision has occupied fourteen years and it is to be inferred that the changes in the text are as many and radical as in the revised Testament. But this is a delicate subject to dwell upon. We remember quoting in our editorial columns some of the changes made in the New Testament, before it was published, and we were immediately held up to scorn by several correspondents of esteemed contemporaries as an infidel and scoffer, and mildly rebuked by several clerical friends for our offense. But if we mistake not these same worthy gentlemen continue to read the old version from their pulpits and give the modern version not the slightest recognition: Senator Morgan; one of the Senate Committee on Indian affairs, in an interview with a Herald reporter, expressed the belief that the Indians of Round Valley, in the northern part of this State, are far better qualified to exercise the rights of citizenship than the negroes of the South, being more intelligent, Tingal, honest and industrious. Senator Morgan's statement will not pass unchallenged; and the fact that he is from Alabama will be quoted as evidence that he does not view the "nigger question" with the unprejudiced mind which is essential to a fair decision. But he may be right. There is a vast difference between the Indians of the northern and southern portions of the State. The brutish beings we see in Los Angeles and San Diego counties are probably the most degraded of the species. Episode of St. John Chicago, Sept. 30.—St. John's letter accepting the Prohibition nomination for President was given to the press to-day. It takes a gloomy view of the condition of the country and asserts that the liquor business costs the people at least $1,000,000,000 a year. If this business's suppressed, the letter claims that "a protection would be given to the industries of this country that would enable us successfully to throw our doors open wide to the competition of the world." The letter closes by stating that the Prohibition party alone can be relied on to inaugurate an administration of sobriety and efficiency. A clergyman being asked by one of a group of men for whom he intended to vote, replied: "I am going to vote for the best man; and he will be elected, too." "Ugh!" said a glum-viaged by stander, in a grum voice, "way to see what he is, he'll vote for Blaine. Ministers' no business to talk politics, anyway." THE LABOR PROBLEM "The labor question is becoming serious 'at Cincinnati.' Never before were so many 'men out of employment.' Such is the language of a telegram which came over the wires this week. The labor question is also a serious one in this State, in this county and in this town, but the sufferers here are the employers and not the employees. Laboring men are scarce, and the employer is put to great straits by reason of inability to procure reliable men. Even the Chinamen, who have heretofore proved tolerably reliable, are becoming as capricious as the most unreliable Caucasian. The vineyardists of Anaheim have had to submit to them in a great degree this season. Knowing that laborers were scarce they demanded top wages and in return they render indifferent service, working exasperatingly slow and quitting work on the slightest provocation. What a pity it is that the vast army of unemployed men who cluster around cities cannot be dispersed throughout the country where there is a field for their labor! The employers of Chinese labor do not act from choice but from necessity, and there is not a fruit-grower here who would hire a Chinaman if they could get men of any other nationality. If some of the overworked, underpaid peasantry of Europe were scattered throughout this country, the people and the country would both be benefited, and a very perplexing problem would be solved. Were honey only a reasonable price our bee-moon would indeed rejoice. As it is, honey almost a drug in the market and their only show is to hold on for better prices. I have heard of honey selling as low as three or four cents a pound, and this while so-called syrups and masticating mozzarella sell at ninety cents to a dollar gallon. How true it is that there is no accounting for tastes. Did all think as I do on the subject, the prices would be reversed. For wholesomeness, taste and flavor the syrups cannot be mentioned in the same day with pure mountain honey, and it is a mystery to me how there can be any demand for the former while the latter is so plentiful and cheap. I can only account for it on the theory that a continual use of syrups, etc., has vitiated the taste of the majority of Eastern people; and I suppose it will take considerable time to educate them up to such due appreciation of our California sweets. The Santiago creek still continues to run at this place, something heretofore unknown even to the oldest inhabitant. I believe the people of the valley could get along without a drop of rain the coming season. The probabilities are, however, that we shall have a season of more than usual precipitation. Respectfully, VIATOR. New Variety of Wheat A Huntington, Penn., special says: Mr. Patterson has introduced a new variety of wheat into the upper end of this county and other parts of the State and has made a small fortune in the enterprise. He brought tha grain here last summer and sold it to farmers from one to five bushels each for seed. This season he returned and bought their entire crops, paying them $120 per bushel or about 30 cents more than the market price. He took it to western counties, where he had previously obtained orders for it, and delivered it at $5 per bushel. It is known as the "Golden Russian wheat," is of superior quality, very prolific, large in grain, and weighs several pounds to the bushel more than ordinary wheat. A student at the business college in Stockton named Soule pointed a pistol at a fellow student, W. E. Denison, and pulled the trigger. The pistol was of small size, and a nasal on such occasions, Soule "didn't know it was loaded." There was a sharp report and a yell of pain from Denison. Denison received a bullet just below the knee. Surgeon was sent for and probed the wound but could not find the bullet, which evidently had become embedded in one of the muscles. SUPPORSE The correspondent writes: "Wine war for Italy, because it has to contain of ten centuries the litre; ought to my house, all bottled wine, most excellent wine at twelve cents United States litre bottle. Of course I rejoice. I buy very good table wood, but not equal to the thirty centimes (six United per bottle).

MERTE: — A word from this out- ce may not be without inter- any readers. The Santa Clara full blast. The former Super- Thomas Harris, is now run- own account, and is making In addition to a large amount weekly to Los Angeles and FIGURES DON'T LOOK The fruit growers in convention assembled in San Francisco discussed the very important topic of freight rates, and the burden of complaint was that the orange growers of Los Angeles county could send a carload East for $250, whereas $400 was charged for a carload of pears. The reason of this was said to be the policy of the railroad of charging all the traffic will bear. Oranges could not be sent East at a profit if a higher rate was exacted, therefore the rate was fixed at that figure. In this course of the discussion much amusement was afforded by Judge Blackwood, who was very emphatic in his prognostications of disaster from over production. He said that in Riverside there were 75,000 apricot trees, and announced impressively: "I have done a little figuring on this and here is the result: 75,000 trees, at a low estimate 150 pounds to the tree, will give a yearly yield of 56,000 tons. Think of it: fifty-six thousand tons! Why, this will take 516 men 20 days to pick; will take 283 carloads a day for 20 days to move it from the district; will take 16,500 operatives 20 days to can it—and Riverside is only a speck on the fruit-growing area of this State." When the gentleman sat down another fruit grower, pencil and paper in hand, arose and said: "This brethren, would indeed be a solemn moment, except for one thing; my good friend, Judge Blackwood, is a trifle over 50,000 tons off in his reckoning. I make it out that 75,000 trees, 150 pounds to the tree, would give a yield of 5,625 tons." This latter was found to be correct, although Judge Blackwood insisted that his tormentors should go home and study their arithmetics. COMPARATIVE VALUE OF VINYAIDS. A writer in a recent number of the New York Tribune affirms that the value of vinyards per acre in full bearing along the shores of Lake Erie and on the islands of the lake coast of Ohio, is not less than $1,000 an acre. It has recently been noticed that the grapes from these vineyards have been sold at from $70 to $75 per ton, or more than double the price which wine-grapes bring in California, but not more than the best grapes of this State bring when laid down in New York. The grapes produced in Ohio are devoted to table uses and to wine making. But none of the grapes grown in that vicinity have any great reputation in this State. They do not figure here to any great extent either as wine or table grapes. These vineyards will produce an average of about five tons to the David McCloskey, aged 27 years, insisted by strychbain at San Jose. The business portion of the town of Eath-drum, Idaho, was destroyed by fire. Lose, $85,000. Twenty families are destitute. William F. Williams, while out hunting near Salt Lake Saturday, accidentally killed himself. About forty head of sheep were poisoned on Big Creek, in Union county, Oregon, last week by some unknown person. Charley Hawkins, who killed his traveling partner with a rock near Princeville, W. T., last summer, has been sent up for fifteen years. The lucky finders of the dead whale in the bay off Santa Cruz last week, got 700 barrels of oil from the monster, worth forty or fifty cents a gallon. J. A. Hoag was cruelly murdered by Dillard Walker at Farmington Or., Sunday. Hoag was a barber and Walker a butcher by trade. Robert Stephens, sentenced to six years' imprisonment in San Quentin by the Superior Court of Fresno, for the crime of manslaughter, has been granted a pardon by Governor Stoneeman. At Watsonville Tully Welch was shot and killed by W. Barlin. The killing seems to be of the most wanton character, no provocation being given. Bardin was arrested, but denies having committed the deed. An attorney at Pendleton, Or., was engaged by three horse thieves to defend them. In the examination he ascertained that they had stolen four of his horses. He will be a witness against his own clients. Caster county, Montana, has a creek named Hanging Woman, which with two other creeks named Starve to Death and Grove Bottom, makes a combination frightful and desolate enough to drive pelgrims away. Four horse thieves got away with seventy head of horses in Umatilla county, W. T., last week. Three of them were captured at Albany, Oregon, but one escaped from custody. The other two were held in $250 cash on nine charges. Francisco Para from Santa Clara county, Cal., while in the act of taking a shotgun out of a wagon near Marysville. Butte county accidentally shot himself through the shoulder. He refused surgical attention and finally after two weeks' suffering died. A 19-year-old son of Mrs Hellzack of Gilroy was run over and instantly killed by a loaded wheat wagon. The boy was riding on the tongue of the trail wagon and losing his balance fell.

Last FRANCOIS PARA FROM SANTA CLARA county, Cal., while in the net of taking a shotgun out of a wagon near Marysville, Butte county accidently shot himself through the shoulder. He refused surgical attention, and finally, after two weeks suffering, died. A 19-year son of Mrs. Hellnack of Olivier was run over and instantly killed by a leaded wheat wagon. The boy was riding on the tongue of the trail wagon and losing his balance fell. Both wheels passed over his neck. A predatory coyote attempted to make a meal off a calf only six weeks old belonging to a ranch in Hermit Valley, Alpine county, but the picky young bovine unexpectedly turned the tables on its carnivorous assailant, killed the brute, and was found in the morning still trampling on the carcass of the dead coyote. The other day a young German, recently from the East, was riding in a wagon from Stockton to lachomba's farm in Woodbridge and Linden, having with him in the wagon a valise containing $500. While engaged in conversation with his friend, the valise fell out, and has not yet been found. Jack Harvey, a pioneer, who came to California with Stevenson's regiment, died at the Calaveras County Hospital a few days ago of a gun shot wound in the neck, nearly severing the windpipe. He said he was shot incidentally by some Indians in the woods; some persons believe he did it himself. The project of a constitutional convention being agitated in Nevada. It is urged that the present State constitution is not a constitution as all, but "volumous medley of basely digged laws," and that Nevada, with a population of less than 60,000, pays as much in the way of fees and salaries to its State officers as does Pennsylvania, with a population of four millions. The case involving the citizenship of the Chinese boy born in the United States, and his consequent right to return this country after a visit to China, was argued last week in the United States Circuit Court. Judge Field stated that we would decide the boy was a citizen and Judge Sawyer would decide that he was not for the sole purpose that the case might be taken to the Supreme Court of the United States. Rev. George W. Beatty, pastor of a Methodist Church in San Francisco, accompanied by an Assemblyman M. B. Hewald, visited Saraville, San Mateo county, test Saturday on a hunting excursion.

He was conveyed to Monie Park and then taken to San Jose on the train for medical treatment, where he now lies in a precautious condition. He is too low to be removed to his residence. Railey's jewelry store at Santa Cruz was robbed of $5,000 worth of jewelry Tuesday morning. The robber occurred at half past six, while Mr. Railey's clerk was at breakfast. The burglar succeeded in gaining admission through the rear entrance. A suspicious character was seen shortly after the robber was committed going toward the Unity Church. A party went in search of him. Most of the valises were found in a basement of the church in an old stove. No trace of the thief. The Indians at the Metlakahla mission, B.C., when driving off the English Church surveyors, assaulted Bishop Ridley and tore his coat from his book. This is in retaliation for two Indian tractors a year ago. It is not known what the English Government will do, but the condition of things is regarded so serious that a bloody tragedy may result at any moment. The attempt to form an English Church Mission at that point is to be regarded as a failure. The Santa Cruz Serene says that in early days a woman was tried for stealing in the mountain church Mission at that point is to be regarded as a failure.

Seek some simple sovereign stirs as sweet FOLA TEACHER Were honey only a reasonable men would indeed rejoice. As almost a drug in the market show is to hold on for better we heard of honey selling as low four cents a pound, and this syrup and masseuse moons from ninety cents to a dollar a true it is that there is no ac tastes.

Variety of Wheat Atton, Penn., special says: Mr. was introduced a new variety of the upper end of this county and at the State and has made a small enterprise. He brought the last summer and sold it to farmers live bushels each for seed. This returned and bought their entire them $120 per bushel or more than the market price. In western counties, where he only obtained orders for it, and at $5 per bushel.

A present for and probed the wound, not find the bullet, which evidently embedded in one of the strain of business troubles, is responsible for a great majority." Monsignor Capel closed with an appeal to the press to cease drawing attractive pictures of crime and criminals. Much of the crime of this world was due to pernicious literature. The minute description of suicides, murders and clopements led to the others. Extermination of the Buffalo. A St. Paul special says: A curious feature of a once important branch of trade in this city is the fact that the entire catch of buffalo robes this year is only 4000. Last year the catch was 10,000, and the year after the Northern Pacific was opened through Little Missouri, 100,000 robes. The railway let in hide-hunters, and as the buffalo happened to be south of the line and within reaching distance of the Missouri the transportation output was large, thousands upon thousands were killed whose hides were never removed, and of these thousands a large majority furnished only a few pounds of tenderloin to the rapacious riflesmen. The Cholera Epidemio Rome, Sept. 30th.—The reports of the cholera epidemic in Italy for the past twenty-four hours show a total of 424 fresh cases and 229 deaths, including 122 cases and 51 deaths in Naples and 66 cases and 67 deaths at Genoa. Naples, Sept. 30th.—The cholera is increasing in Terra Aununziata. Deputy Serbi visited the town and organized four bands of metropolitan to assist patients. The health officers sent to Vicaria to disinfect the place were assaulted by a mob with sticks and revolvers. One health officer was wounded. There are 140 orphans in a temporary saylum in this city who lost all their relatives by the plague. "Why do you frown, fair maid?" he asked, and she Pouted, and said, "I want EOLA TEA." The inter-state rifle match between the picked military teams of Nevada and California was won by the Nevada team by a score of 872 to 839. The match was with military rifles at 200 and 500 yards ranges, nine men composing each team. "The tea of the future—EOLA TEA." "Pa," asked a little hoy, "which saint was it that said, Take a little wine for the stomach's sake!" "St. Paul, I believe," "I thought it was St. John." "No. St. John is a Prohibitionist." Whisky is now called "calamity juice." If a man could distill whisky out of his calamities this would be a very miserable world, we fear. The Indians at the Metlakatla mission, B.C., when driving off the English Church surveyors, assaulted Bishop Riley and told his case from his back. This is retaliation for the Hindoo knocking down Ala Hesnan and two of their tribe a year ago. It is not known what the British Government will do, but the condition of things is regarded so serious that a bloody tragedy may result at any moment. The attempt to form an English Church Mission at that point is to be regarded as a failure. The Santa Cruz Sertial says that in early days a woman was tried for stealing in the County Court at that place. The Judge charged the jury that a man and wife are one, and the husband was not proven to have anything to do with the stealing, hence it would follow that if the woman was convicted the husband would have to be sentenced also, and therefore the innocent would suffer. From this defection the Judge advised the jury to acquit the prisoner, which they did. This singular charge is on record in the Clerk's office. At San Francisco, Aggie Hatton, aged 12 years, gave birth to an eight-pound boy baby, which she attempted to get rid of by throwing it over fence into a vacant lot. The child was found by neighbors, who informed the police of the affair. The infant was returned to its child mother and no further action taken by the police authorities in the matter. It appears that Aggie, who reached her twelfth birthday only last June, was seduced by a young man named Frank Strayne, 26 years of age, who has now promised to marry her. At a meeting of women in San Francisco, held to organize a protective union, Mrs. Olmstead, a lady who is engaged in business on Sutter street, spoke feelingly on the subject of women's wages. She said that many sewing women who are employed by establishments in the city could not by their utmost efforts earn more than fifty cents a day, or three dollars and a half a week if they worked every day in the week, including Sundays. She herself paid her employees voluntarily, a maternal advance on these rates. The terrible privations to which sewing-women were reduced by the niggardly wages that are doled out to them were generally but informally discussed. I. Seuch, a wealthy Polish gentleman who is interested in beet sugar, lately paid a visit to San Francisco and speaks very highly of the capabilities of our soil for the production of a sugar-producing beet. Mr. Seuch, in the interest of his business, has traveled through many countries and made careful examination of soils, and has come to the conclusion that California, above all other lands, has the greatest possibilities for the successful introduction of this industry. In Poland, he observed, there were unequaled beet lands, and though, as yet, he has not been able to find any in this State which surpasses the beet of his lands at home, yet he is confident that with proper care in the ways of measuring and preparing the soil for the plant we have an extraordinarily fertile field for their cultivation.

Some time ago he married his wife, and since then, with hope increasing his trade, joined the Mormon church and a Mormon woman, that a Jewish customers left him, and no Moron trade took its place. He became disartoned, went daint and ended his career. He was 68 years old. A heinous crime was committed in Chicago, most unparalleled in its atrocity. Michael Jay, living in a miserable hotel at 49 Clark street, went home during the night in a broken state and found his wife in bed in the body of a dead infant, to which she had given birth during the night. He beat his wife to death. When arrested, Shay was such a sadden condition that nothing diligent could be obtained from him. THE JAPAN TEA TRADE. Movement on Foot to Elevate its Standard. Certain exporting firms in Japan recognize the fact that something must be done sustain the waning reputation of the teas shipped therein, in the matters of purity and quality, have decided to put upon the American market a tea that shall leave no trace to be cleared. Accordingly a blend of chosen Foenicus Oolong with the most recently flavored Japan leaf (both of the highest pitting) curred by the simplest and most effective process yet devised, and pack-in the Perfection Tea Can which controlls it is by the Japanese Tea Syndicate, who positively refuse to ship any but pure teas of good quality, though of different grades, in its package, and carrying as it does the guarantee of purity, quality and perfect preservation with it wherever it goes, is now offered to the public As, however, Eola茶 though of moderate price rated by its quality, may not be within the reach of all, the same firms are likewise exporting a strictly pure fall flavored tea too suit the masses under the "White Cross" brand. This also possesses the same superior advantage in the matter of packing as Eola茶. It is said there are fully half a million pounds of hope on the vines in Payallup and White River valleys, W. T., in imminent anger of being lost for want of pickers. Maria Meeker, the "hop king," writes that this year is enormous, and its usual has never been known in the wide world.
