WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY...AUGUST 8, 1863 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. It cost Spreckels $60,000 to get acquitted of the charge of attempting to murder De Young. This was at the rate of $20,000 a pop. Even a sugar mill would not long yield a revenue sufficient to enable its owner to indulge often in that kind of sport. David S. Terry has brought a suit for libel against an attorney who in an interview with a newspaper reporter spoke of the duel between Broderick and Terry as a murder. Age is elipson Terry's good sense. It is unwise to revive the details of that duel. A cyclone which swept up the Delaware river on Monday blew things into the middle of next week, vulgarly speaking. It damaged property, several people were killed and a great many wounded. The favorites method of dying now in the East is by sunstroke or windstroke. Charles Whitehead was appointed Special Inspector of Pensions on Saturday. He was editor of a rabid Republican paper in Los Angeles a year or more ago and was shot into special prominence by a citizen whose wife he had insulted. Some men have greatness thrust upon them. The most expressive tribute to Grant in the way of mourning decorations is the one displayed by a colored man who keeps a fruit stand in New York. He has a cheap portrait of Grant, and under it he has inscribed the memorable words, "He set me free." The tax rate of Jersey City has been fixed at $293 on the $100. We thought it was only in the wild West that larcenous tax rates prevailed. How thankful we all ought to be for the privilege of living in Anaheim where the climate is not only incomparable but where the tax rate is only 35 cents on the $100. In hot weather drink at the wrists. Flowering pomegranate in New York today will, it is predicted, be a grander sight than ever before witnessed in an American city, surpassing even the occasion of Lincoln’s funeral. A New York dispatch says: Real estate men are doing a rushing business in resting buildings, windows and seats to those who deserve to view the funeral procession. There has already been such a demand for places of observation that no fixed prices are set, but bids are invited. Six windows in a Fifth avenue residence sold for $100 to a speculator yesterday. He claims to have already contracted for seats at prices that will pay him handsomely. Regular agencies have been established where seats can be secured. This reminds us of a story told of the late A. T. Stewart, the well-known New York merchant who, on the day of Lincoln’s assassination, and when the whole city was being draped in mourning, entered his store with woe in his face and wringing his hands. “Oh, this is awful,” he exclaimed to his foreman, “this is a terrible disaster. Put the price of mourning goods up twenty-five cents a yard.” We believe that the price of lemons now is quite low, and this in view of the facts contained in the following paragraph from a New York paper of latest date is quite comprehensible: The lemonade vendors throughout the city are making small fortunes, but the wholesale lemon dealers say that the fruit has become so expensive that it is no longer profitable to handle. At this time of year lemons should be plentiful and cheap, selling for from $3.50 to $4 a box, instead of which $9 a box is asked for a very ordinary fruit. This price has prevailed for about eight days, and shows no signs of weakening, and yet from the lemon-growing countries satisfactory assurances of a full crop are received. There is a general impression that some speculators have formed a “corner” in lemons, and are holding the supply to raise the prices. The demand is, of course, unusually large, but supply, if placed on the market, would be amply sufficient to meet it. First-class lemons are bringing extraordinarily high prices. Yesterday some fine fruit were sold for from $10 to $13 a box, and it is expected that $15 will be reached by to-morrow. Good for Grover. New York, Aug. 6.—The Times Cincinnati special publishes a correspondence between a certain Ohio man, unnamed, and President Cleveland. The former had recommended a person for appointment to a judgeship simply to get rid of him, not believing that the President would consider Louis Cal., Aug. 8.—Louis of jumper numbering both thirty, comprising several Pops and their relatives; careful attempt to jump from Coffee, six miles southeast; has owned and occupied thirty years.

How thankful we all ought to be for the privilege of living in Anaheim where the climate is not only incomparable but where the tax rate is only 35 cents on the $100. In hot weather drink at the wrists. Flowing water over the wrists will better cool the blood and assuage thirst than to flood the stomach with ice-water, which, under any circumstances, is dangerous, and produces indigestion, inflammation and kidney troubles. Old physicians give this advice, and the public should heed it. The first attempt to plant polygamy in the South is being made by an agent of the Mormon church who has gone to Alabama to purchase land on which to locate 300 Mormons. The Mormon missionaries who went to Tennessee some time ago and attempted to make proselytes were rudely treated and driven from the country; but it may be that sentiment in Alabama tends the other way. The prohibitory law in Iowa is not working as its advocates hoped. We get our information from the editorial columns of Harper's Weekly which says that in the cities and large towns of that State the liquor traffic is carried on, openly and secretly. The whole number of saloons in twenty-eight such cities and towns is reported to be 916, as against 770 before the law was in operation. The kind of market San Francisco is for fruit-growers may be judged from the fact that on last Saturday peaches ranged in prices from five cents per basket to twenty-five cents. Bartlett pears brought only seventy five cents per box. Tomatoes sold for five cents a box, while the freight on them was eight cents. There are portions of California which can hardly lay claim to being summer resorts. At Merced on Sunday and Monday the heat was from 104 to 114 degrees in the shade at Sacramento 105 degrees; at Napa 104 degrees. Here in Anaheim we felt tolerably comfortable at 92 degrees, but even that heat was of short duration, the afternoon wind reducing it materially. According to the Sacramento Record-Union, shippers of fruit in that vicinity claim that during the past week they have met a competition in the Eastern markets from two sources that previously had not been encountered, namely: Shipments from Los Angeles and Oregon. The shipments from the former comprising whole carloads of grapes; also, pears of several varieties, which are later than those grown in the northern counties. From Oregon the shipments appear to be largely of plums and eaten everything in the halle. Good for Grover New York, Aug. 6.—The Times Cincinnati special publishes a correspondence between a certain Ohio man, unnamed, and President Cleveland. The former had recommended a person for appointment to a judgeship simply to get rid of him, not believing that the President would consider the matter. The President, however, appointed the applicant. The signer of the petition then wrote to the President, detailing all the facts in the case and expressing surprise and sorrow that the President had appointed a mere bore who had no qualification for the office. The following is the President's reply: EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHINGTON, D.C., Aug. 1, 1885. Dear Sir: I have read your letter of the 24th ult. with amazement and indignation. There is but one mitigation of the perility which your letter discloses, and that is found in the fact that you confess your share in it. I don't know whether you are a Democrat or not, but if you are, the crime which you confess is more unapponable. The idea that this administration, pledged to give to the people better government and better officers and engage in a hand to hand fight with the bad elements of both parties, should be betrayed by those who ought to be worthy of implicit trust is atrocious, and such treason to the people and to the party ought to be punished by imprisonment. Your confession comes too late to be of immediate use to the public service, and I can only say that, while this is not the first time I have been deceived by lying and treacherous representations, you are the first one who has so frankly owned to his grievous fault. If any comfort is to be extracted from this assurance you are welcome to it. Your truly, GROVER CLEVELAND. The Cholera. MADRID, August 4.—There were reported yesterday 3718 new cases of cholera throughout Spain, and 1701 deaths from the disease occurred. The cholera has for some time existed in the jail at Cartagena, but every effort has been made to suppress outside knowledge of the fact. Yesterday it leaked out that no less than 200 criminals imprisoned within the jail were down with the acourge. The discovery produced a fearful panic among the other convicts, and they rose in revolt and made the most desperate efforts to get away from the prison. They were, however, finally overpowered by the soldiers and compelled to resume their quarters. Several inmates of the jail at Granada are also ill with the cholera. MARSEILLES, August 4.—The cholera panic is increasing. Many persons are fleeing the city in dread. The local press has been ordered to preserve silence respecting the existence and ravages of the acourge. It is reported that no less than eighty persons have died from cholera in Marseilles within the past few days. PARIS, August 4.—There are several cases of cholera in the Paris hospitals and a number of other patients with the disease are undergoing private treatment in the city. The authorities of the city and all the newspapers except the Cri du Peuple and the radical organs, refrain from mentioning the appearance of the disease in Paris, fearing that the announcement would frighten away English and American tourists, who are thronging the city. Americans who have been warned are going to England or Switzerland. The hospitals are already prepared. Laguna to his home in Riverside while passing through Taste range, he noticed that many room for other fruits.

The shipments from the former comprising whole carloads of grapes; also, pears of several varieties, which are later than those grown in the northern counties. From Oregon the shipments appear to be largely of plums and pears, the quality of which is said to be good. The Oregon shipments are made by the Northern Pacific Railroad, while those from the southern part of the State seem to go forward by several routes, a number of cars having passed through Sacramento via the Central Pacific Railroad. From a chart issued by a life insurance company we learn that in the months of December, 1884, and January and February of the present year 380 persons committed suicide in the United States. Sixty-nine of the suicides were women. Of the total number 127 were Americans, 70 Germans, 19 Frenchmen and only 6 Irishmen and 2 Chinamen. Forty-eight of the suicides were farmers, 20 were merchants, 14 laborers, 9 speculators and only 3 miners. The favorite weapon of the suicide is the pistol; 127 deaths were caused by shooting. Next to this, hanging accounted for 82 deaths and poison for 78. Forty-six men cut their throats and 27 drowned themselves. Nine deliberately chose to let themselves be run over by railway trains. Quitman (Ga.), Aug. 5.—The Allen House has been turned into a college for colored girls, and this fact creates considerable comment. Mrs. Allen, widow of the former owner, who is an enthusiast for negro education, has set the house aside for this purpose. Rev. John Pharr (colored) of Chicago is in charge. Is this Good Poetry? Alfred Tennyson, the Poet Laureate, is the author of the following verses on the marriage of the Princess Beatrice: Two suns of Love make day of human life, Which else, with all its pains and griefs and deaths, Were utter darkness; one the sun of dawn That brightens through the mother's tender eyes, And warms the child's awakening world; and one The later rising sun of spousal love, Which from her household orbit draws the child To move in other spheres. The mother weeps At that white funeral of the single life, Her maiden daughter's marriage, and her tears Are half of pleasure, half of pain. The child Is happy ever in leaving her. But then, True daughter, whose all faithful filial eyes Have seen the loneliness of earthly thrones, Wilt neither quit the widowed crown, nor let This later light of love have risen in vain. But moving through the mother's home, between The two that love these, lead a summer life, Swayed by each love, and awaying to each love Like some conjectured planet in mid heaven Between two suns, and drawing down from both The light and genial warmth of double day, Lieutenants, entered, represented by Gen.

Grant and his staff had eaten everything in the pumpkin pie. After learning ly name was Selvidge and later to ensure their keeping should send an officer for rode off. That night, great pride of the troops, after a cation had been selected, the whole dered to turn out for parade great importance was supposed to happen, when the Assi General read in a loud voice that had been drawn up, therder: HEADQUARTERS ARMY Special Order No. — Lieut.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.—Forty appointments to four partnerships were announced to Xand Jumpers Debated. Lout, Cal., Aug. 8—Last night a party of jumpers numbering between twenty and thirty, comprising several of a family named Popa and their relatives, made an unsuccessful attempt to jump the ranch of Robert Coffee, six miles southeast of Lodi. Coffee has owned and occupied the place for nearly thirty years. The jumpers alleged that Coffee holds no title to the land. The jumpers were repelled by force by Mr. Coffee. Heary Levinsky, George McCall and Mrs. Alice Staples of the party had brought their families with them as well as lumber for cabins, cooking outfits and provisions. As fast as these were put over the fence they were thrown back. Mrs. Staples taking a brave and active part. The party meeting with an opposition not expected, gave up and moved onward with the intention of jumping, as they stated, three other ranches. That night a wagon containing some of the jumpers and lumber started. Gato Shepherd, the driver, while holding a double-barrelled shotgun between his legs let it slip through a hole in the bottom of the wagon, striking the hammers and discharging the contents of both barrels into his thigh. The hmb was amputated to-day by Dr. Gordon, Barchard and Clark. It is not expected that the wounded man will live. Nothing further has been heard from the jumpers. The accident disheartened them. The following items are from the River-side Press and Horticulturist: W. E. Mercer has a Bartlett pear orchard that shows signs of unhealthfulness that are peculiar. A few of his trees in bearing show lack of vitality, and the fruit is attacked with a little black spot in the blossom end of the fruit, which increases in size till it becomes as large as a half dollar, and then the pear tails to the ground. The entire crop on certain trees goes this way while other trees in the orchard are perfectly healthy. His orchard is on low land, with surface water about five feet below the surface. Can any one account for the disease? A gentleman who recently returned from Laguna to his home in Riverside, states that while passing through Tustin City and Orange, he noticed that many orange orchards in that valley were being taken out to make room for other fruits. One man who went down from Riverside some five years ago in order, as he supposed, to better his condition, is now digging out an orange orchard planted by him after his settlement in his new home. Cord-wood made from orange trees is not an uncommon sight. An Important Announcement. THE COMING OF S. H. BARRETT'S NEW UNITED MONSTER RAILROAD SHows. Pacific Coast News. Some vineyardists at Vacaville have contracted their crops at $50 per ton. This is probably for table grapes. At San Francisco, Michael Lynah attempted to beat his wife, as is his habit when drunk, and she shot him in the arm with a revolver. Some emigrants have arrived in Oregon who came by team all the way from Iowa. They were about three months on the way and had a pleasant journey. The receipts of the Quijotos, A. T. post-office are about $600 a year, while the expense of the mail route to that place is $4,000. The graduating exercises of the Indian training-school near Salem, Or., took place Tuesday last. There are 225 pupils in attendance. An illicit distillery has been broken up by revenue officers about forty miles from Portland. It had been running over a year, making liquor from fruit. In Payallup Valley, W. T., a number of hop fields will go unpicked, as the cost of picking is greater than the present market price. Saturday evening last a train on the Pacific Coast Railway ran over Daniel Hill near Los Alamos, killing him and cutting his body into many pieces, strewing it along the track for several hundred yards. At San Bernardino the residence of Thos. Warden was destroyed by fire. The total loss is $7,000; insured in the Manufacturers' for $4,500. It is supposed to have been the work of an incendiary, as no one was at home at the time. A Yolo county farmer while digging a collar on his ranch found a rusty iron chest containing several loose pieces of Spanish money, three human skulls, a number of flint arrowheads and a purse containing a large amount of coin. R. D. Parker, a Green Lake (W.T.) farmer, was burned out Sunday. The flames destroyed his residence, household effects and barn. Parker was sick at the time and was carried from the burning building by his wife. A resident of San Jose is reported to have taken up in his own and his father's name 1100 acres of land in the Santa Clara valley, which, until recently, was supposed to be included in a Spanish grant. John E. Phillips, driver of a peddler wagon, was brutally beaten at North San Juan recently by Michaud Hogan, ex-City Marshal, because he was suspected of being employed by the Anti-Debris Association to watch the movements of the miners. A large crowd witnessed the affair, and no arrests were made.

This monster organization, the fame of which extends over two hemispheres, comes to us with the highest encomias favorably given from all quarters. It will exhibit at Anaheim on Monday, August 24th. We can safely say ourselves that the man or woman who misses this opportunity of seeing the greatest show in the world (that is what it is) will not have our sympathy if the miss was intentional, because sympathy will be needed and much vain regret will be in order—after the show has gone by those who did not see it. A few of the important features of the many hundred new ones added this year are worth recapitulating. S. H. Barrett brings this year, in connection with the wonders of last season, 200 all-star artists, led by James Robinson, the world's champion bareback artist, who has been lured from retirement for his last year; a monster pair of coal-black tigers, captured by an exploring party in Africa a short time ago. These strange members of the brute creation are the only ones living in captivity in the world to-day and, in fact, the only ones ever captured. This great show has the largest living elephant in the world, (Xerxes), a very mountain of flesh. It brings a menagerie of countless dens and cages of living wild animals; a monster two-horned Asiatic Rhinoceros. Its ring performances, with an all-star list of 200 of the greatest names known to the profession. Its museum has wonders from all parts of the world too numerous and strange to be listed. Its elevated stage performances are equal to any theatrical performance. In a word, it is—all say it is—the greatest show in the world. Grant's Pie Joke- [From the Buffalo Courier.] This story purports to be told by an officer of his staff, and refers to a time in 1861, when he was sent with a brigade to southern Missouri to repel a threatened invasion by Jeff Thompson. The country through which the troops passed was chiefly a wilderness in which not a hog, a chicken, or an ear of corn was to be captured by the boys. Finally Lieut. Wickfield of an Indiana cavalry regiment, with an advanced guard of eight mounted men, came across a farmhouse. He halted his command, and, with two Second Lieutenants, entered, represented himself to be Gen. Grant, and demanded dinner. The General's name had already acquired some fame in that region, and the family curried about and set forth what they had, loudly professing their loyalty. The Lieutenants ate all they could and departed, after the family had refused to take any pay for what had been furnished. Later in the day it happened that Gen. Grant himself stopped in front of the same house and asked if he could be given a meal, but was told that Gen. Grant and his staff had been there and eaten everything in the house but one. A resident of San Jose is reported to have taken up in his own and his father's name 1100 acres of land in the Santa Clara valley, which, until recently, was supposed to be included in a Spanish grant. John E. Phillips, driver of a peddler wagon, was brutally beaten at North San Juan recently by Michael Hogan, ex-City Marshal, because he was suspected of being employed by the Anti-Debris Association to watch the movements of the miners. A large crowd witnessed the affair, and no arrests were made. The Democratic County Committee has determined, in connection with the Republican County Committee, to address Chinese Minister Denby on the subject of the Chinese in California. It is proposed to have a public meeting on the subject, and invite Denby to be present and listen to speeches by Senator Miller and Farley, and Representatives Henley, Felton and Morrow, and others. A German who keeps a saloon on Fourth and Mission streets, San Francisco, attempted to commit suicide by drowning on the beach near Schenectar Park, Sunday. When haunted out of the water he stated that he wanted to die because his wife, to whom he was but recently married, had bestowed her affections on a Chinese laundryman. Christian Pfeiffer was hunting coons on the Norris grant, near Sacramento, when he espied an animal at which he wished to shoot and called to a companion to hand him his gun. The hammer of the weapon caught on a shrub and the gun was discharged, tearing one of Pfeiffer's arms to pieces. He was taken to Sacramento and the arm was amputated at the shoulder. It is thought he cannot recover. It is announced that the Southern Pacific Company has arranged a new schedule of third-class passenger rates, to take effect the 17th inst., which increases the rates to Eastern points. The greatest difference is on fare from San Francisco to Chicago, which has been increased from $53 to $50. The least is on fare to Detroit, which is raised from $59 50 to $60. The company will shortly announce a reduction in third-class fares from this point. At San Diego Sunday night John Heerander missed his wife Caroline, but supposing that she was visiting at a neighbor's, he went to bed. Monday morning, as she was still missing, a search was organized and she was found about 9 o'clock in the bay near the bath house, of which the husband and wife are proprietors. She had evidently gone out to the bath house late at night to look after some boats that had been out on the bay, and fell into the water. She was about 45 years of age and a native of Russia. A fatal accident occurred on the ranch of Samuel Gates, eight miles west of Modesto, Sunday afternoon. Mr. Gates, with his wife, son and daughter, was visiting Modesto, leaving Mrs. General Gates, his daughter-in-law, with her four children, besides all the hired help on the ranch. Samuel, a boy 7 years of age, in his childish antics climbed a tree on the lawn surrounding the dwelling. In descending he slid on to a broken limb some seven inches long, which penetrated his ablomen and disemboweled him. Medical assistance was immediately called, but to no purpose. A Woodland special says: Monday afternoon P. G. Everett, a wealthy farmer and highly respected citizen of Copay valley, was found in his room at Byrne's Hotel suffering from a dose of laudanum, which it is believed he took about seven o'clock in the morning with saxifrage intent. He was to have been married that day to an estimable young lady at Knight's Landing, but the appearance and objection of his step-daughter, to whom he is said to have been married in 1882 and recently divorced from workup upon his mind so that he sought愈secrease of arrow in an ounce and a half of poison. A dispatch from the Landing states that his vineyard is unimproved.

Grant, and demanded dinner. The General's name had already acquired some fame in that region, and the family scurried about and set forth what they had, loudly professing their loyalty. The Lieutenants ate all they could and departed, after the family had refused to take any pay for what had been furnished. Later in the day it happened that Gen. Grant himself stopped in front of the same house and asked if he could be given a meal, but was told that Gen. Grant and his staff had been there and eaten everything in the house but one pumpkin pie. After learning that the family name was Selvidge and leaving half a dollar to ensure their keeping the pie until he should send an officer for it, the General rode off. That night, greatly to the surprise of the troops, after a camping ground had been selected, the whole force was ordered to turn out for parade. Something of great importance was supposed to be about to happen, when the Assistant Adjutant-General road in a loud voice before the lines that had been drawn up, the following order: HEADQUARTERS ARMY IN THE FIELD. Special Order No. — Leut. Wickfield of the Indiana cavalry, having eaten everything in Mrs. Selvidge's house, at the crossing of the Trenton and Phoenishontas and Black River and Cape Girardeau roads, except one pumpkin pie, Leut. Wickfield is hereby ordered to return with an escort of 100 cavalry and eat that pie also. U. S. GRANT, Brigadier-General Commanding. The troops were then dismissed in a state of bewilderment, but by the time the Lieutenant was ready to leave camp with his escort to perform his singular duty, the joke was appreciated, and he was followed by peals of laughter. WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.—Two hundred and forty appointments to fourth-class Postmasterships were announced to-day. A Woodland special says: Monday afternoon P. G. Everett, a wealthy farmer and highly respected citizen of Copay valley, was found in his room at Byrne's Hotel suffering from a dose of laudanum, which it is believed he took about seven o'clock in the morning with suicidal intent. He was to have been married that day to an estimable young lady at Knight's Landing, but the appearance and objection of his step-daughter, to whom he is said to have been married in 1882 and recently divorced from, worked upon his mind so that he sought success of sorrow in an ounce and a half of poison. A dispatch from the Landing states that his afflianced has had spasms ever since hearing of the attempted suicide. The would-be suicide is still alive, but there are no hopes of his recovery. A fire along the caplanade at Toronto early Sunday morning caused a loss of about $1,000,000. The Russian Prince, Alexander Gagarina, driven to desperation by heavy losses at the gambling tables of Monte Carlo, has committed suicide. Seven thousand people attended the Spiritualistic camp-meeting at Middleborough, Mass., July 26th. Two steamers were run from New Bedford and special trains were run from Fairhaven and Cape Cod. A dispatch from Kashden, Asiatic Russia, says a great earthquake has visited that region. It damaged most of the houses in the town of Bishoersek and ruined the cities of Suluk and Belvoodsk. In the latter place a church was shaken to fragments while it was crowded with worshipers, a large number of whom were killed. The earth opened in great fissures in Belvoodsk, and many people were swallowed up. Later advice say that fifty-four persons were killed and sixty-four injured. Shocks continue to be felt, and the inhabitants are panic-striken.
