WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY... SEPTEMBER 19, 1865 Kleinigkeiten. The Chautauqua Reading Circle will meet at Mrs. Mossman's on Sept. 22d. A patent for pruning shears has been granted to Isaac M. McKay of Pomona. Insure against fire in the first-class companies for which Richard Melrose is agent. Policies written and delivered at once. Mr. Bockisch is building a stable and sheds on the vineyard he recently purchased and will shortly begin the erection of a dwelling house. Mr. J. J. Duff and family, who have been passing the summer in New York, are now on their way home and will arrive next week. The jury in the case of the woman who claimed a share of the estate of Andreas Briswalter, has decided that there was no marriage between them. Mr. S. S. Wood and family yesterday removed to San Bernardino, Mr. Wood having received an unsolicited appointment as teacher in the public school of that city. Mr. John Hauna has now located permanently in Los Angeles and will in a few days rent an office in the business part of town. We hope he will divert land-buyers down here by the hunhred. Mr. F. H. Keith reports having made the following sale: Fred Eichler to John C Stege—butcher business, tools and fixtures; consideration, $600. Mr. Stege is from Los Angeles and is a first-class butcher. It appears that it really is the official head of Register Johnston that has been designated, in favor of J. D. Bethune of San Bernardino. The Riverside Prow thus tells how it was done: "There is said to be a little committee history connected with this appointment that has never been given to the public. Mr. Bethune's father is a warm personal friend of Secretary Lamar. Recently Mr. Bethune, Sr., visited Washington, and, of course, called on his old friend, who now occupies a high position in the Cabinet. Mr. Lamar, during the conference, asked Mr. Bethune if he wanted anything in a political way. The answer was that he did not, but that perhaps his son, who lived out in California, might want something. He was then requested to ask his son what he wanted. Jo due course of mail—or telegraph; our informant didn't know which—the reply came back: "Nothing, unless it might be the position of Register of the Land Office at Los Angeles." The appointment was then made out. The outrageous way in which the cars on the road between here and Los Angeles are hanged about deserves the attention of somebody high in authority. We do not suppose the rolling stock is benefited by the thumpings and crashings it is subjected to at the various stations; but we do know that the passengers are shaken and jolted in a way which is productive of profanity, if nothing worse. Only a few days ago a sick lady was made hysterical by the jolting, and on the passengers demonstrating with the engineer and conductor they were told—not too courteously—that the steam-brakes were out of order. But inasmuch as complaints have been made for many months, it is likely that the trouble is caused more from carelessness than from any mechanical defect. At Long Beach this week, a lady had set a saucer of bread and butter and arsenic under a bed in her tent, to kill rats. A neighbor's baby was playing with a kitten, which ran under the bed; the baby followed, brought out the saucer and began to eat the bread and butter. She was discovered eating it, and by prompt remedies fatal consequences were prevented. But the most remarkable part of the tale is that the lady who placed the poison there says that once before a little colored child ate poison that Another Riverside Prow which paper we look concerning the plans or announcements that we have been located from ton, and that a right-tained across the Yoya the Santa Ana canyon passing through this course as may be described examination of the crayfish be built to those most friendly feeling.

Keith reports having made the following sale: Fred Eichler to John C Stege—butcher business, tools and fixtures; consideration, $600. Mr. Stege is from Los Angeles and is a first-class butcher. The announcement of the Agricultural Fair at Downey is made to-day. The success of the fair given at that place last year was unquestioned, and there is every reason to believe that the exhibition this year will surpass the first one. About a dozen watermelons, each weighing over 75 pounds, were brought to Helmseen's store on Monday by Mr. A. McDermont, on whose farm they were raised. They were from seed of a melon that weighed over 80 pounds. A Riverside man has invented an ore indicator, which, it is claimed, was tried successfully on Messas Chaffey & Howland's autimony mine, in this county, and discovered a silver vein. The instrument works on the "well-known affinity of minerals." The three-year-old daughter of L. V. Glasscock of Cienega ate a piece of watermelon which had been dosed with strychine, but the prompt application of a stomach pump saved the child's life. The molon had been scattered about the field to kill squirrels. A steam yacht is being built at San Pedro by Capt. Banning which is destined to ply between the mainland and Catalina Island during the summer. It will carry fifty persons, and with a full complement, the fare to and from the island will be but $1. Under such cheap facilities Catalina will become a popular resort. We acknowledge the receipt of an invitation to the silver wedding of Mr. L. M. Holt, of the Riverside Press and Horticulturist, and Mrs. Libbie J. Graves Holt, on October 7th. May the twenty-five succeeding years bring to the worthy couple twice as much joy as they have experienced during the past quarter of a century. Mr. Andronica Sepulveda has resigned the office of Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue for this district. The cause of his resignation is given as ill-health. An associated press telegram says: "Charges have been preferred against the suspended Collector, but their precise character is not known." The following Grand Jury has been impanelled: Wm. J. Smith, Andrew Joughin, Sr., N. C. Carter, B. Cohn, W. R. Dodson, At Long Beach this week, a lady had set a saucer of bread and butter and arsenic under a bed in her tent, to kill rats. A neighbor's baby was playing with a kitten, which ran under the bed; the baby followed, brought out the saucer and began to eat the bread and butter. She was discovered eating it, and prompt remedies fatal consequences were prevented. But the most remarkable part of the tale is that the lady who placed the poison there says that once before a little colored child ate poison that she had placed for rats in the same way, and the child died in her house. This woman is a physician's wife. — Times. Now that we have inaugurated one railway of local significance and promise, it is pleasant to know that another is under way. We learn, from the most reliable authority, that the "bed rock" railway from Riverside to Los Angeles, is about to be started in good faith, and by the Atlantic & Pacific Railway at that. This road will swing in around Orange and will reach this city by a route which will develop a very productive country. The Atlantic & Pacific and Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe people have their eyes on this section and they intend to take a hand in its development. Certainly no one here abounds will say them nay. — Los Angeles Herald. We notice that a number of our vineyards whose vines are in or adjacent to the bills or wooded lands, survey them with whitewash to keep off the jack rabbits. The remedy is said to be effectual; a rabbit will not trouble or go near a vine on which whitewash is visible. They seem to be suspicious of the white spot. — St. Helena Star. The Naipa rabbits have daintier palates than the Los Angeles breed. They thrive on whitewash here. The disastrous fire at the Fresno winery and the narrow escape of Kohler & Prohlings' establishment from the devouring flames show that even with the utmost care such establishments are liable to go up in smoke at any moment. The moral of this is to keep wine cellars well insured—especially in the exceptionally staunch companies represented in Anaheim by Richard Melrose. Policies written and delivered at once. The Odd Feilows' lodges of Anaheim were honored on Tuesday by a visit from Grand Master Cook, Grand Secretary Lyon and Grand Marshal Northerross. On the adjournment of the lodge a banquet was given at the Anaheim Hotel, and good cheer prevailed until a late hour. The Herald is informed that a Scotch colony from Glasgow, Scotland, numbering eighty-two, will arrive at Lancaster about the 25th to settle in the valley. Three sleeping cars have been engaged to accommodate them, as the Lancaster Hotel, although costing $5,000, is inadequate.

Martin, John Bryson, Wm. H. Workman, S. H. Mott, Wm. Dryden, H. Cahan, S. M. Perry, L. Measler and I. N. Moor. Judge Chesey asked the jury to give its attention to the facts attending the fire at Pomona some months ago, to the treatment of prisoners in the county jail, and to the conduct of the public service generally. On Friday last week a fatal accident occurred at Santa Catalina Island; the particulars of which are given in the testimony of John Solby at the coroner's inquest. He said: I recognize the body of deceased as Knud Seim. Have known him four months. He was working with me at the quarry at Santa Catalina Island. Had a crowbar trying to break down rocks, and all at once I heard some of the men sing out "Run." I looked up and saw deceased and Andrew Nare run down the hill as fast as they could and a great big rock after them. I saw Seim jump to one side and Nare kept going straight right down. That is the last I saw of Seim. There was so much dust I couldn't see clearly, but I saw the rock pass over the place where Seim had been standing. After the dust had cleared I heard Nara cry for help and went there and I found deceased about six feet higher than Nara, dead. From the time I saw the rock rolling until I saw the dead man was about two minutes. The rock was not hanging over at the place where deceased was working. There was no blasting. I think there is no fault attached to anyone for the accident." Nars received injuries which are likely to prove liable. The Herald is informed that a Scotch colony from Glasgow, Scotland, numbering eighty-two, will arrive at Lancaster about the 25th to settle in the valley. Three sleeping cars have been engaged to accommodate them, as the Lancaster Hotel, although costing $3,000, is inadequate. Bulletined in the postoffice is a list of offices from which letters will be immediately delivered by affixing a ten-cent special delivery stamp. It comprises all the offices at which there is free delivery and the offices at all towns which have a population of over 4000. Needs Looking After A gentleman riding over the country, on Monday last, had his attention directed to the very large volume of water at the head of the Cajon ditch. It resembled a miniature river, but on coming to the head of the Santa Ana ditch he estimated that not one-third of this stream was being obtained and turned into our ditches. Now it would look as if there was something wrong in this matter. The Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company is entitled by law to one-half of the water flowing in the river, and it is the duty of the superintendent of that company to see that a fair and equal division of the water is made—that this company gets what it is entitled to. There ought to be no guess work in the matter, but the stream accurately measured, and the half belonging to the west side turned into the Santa Ana valley company's ditch. —Santa Ana Herald. And yet on the very day referred to in the above extract there was complaint made in Anaheim that the other side of the river was getting much more water than this side. At a time when water is in great demand, it is well not to give too much credence to reports regarding its volume or manner of delivery; It is, perhaps, natural that a man who is impatiently waiting for the water with which to irrigate his fast-drying crops, should imagine that everybody else was faring better than himself. The official news department of San Francisco tells us that Mr. Murray of Bristolune, course, copies a Lamar, Albune if any.

In the railroad developments to which we alluded last week we see more than a glimmer of hope for a strong impulse to the prosperity of this town and vicinity. A competing line through this valley would be more towards populating the fertile acres that are now a waste than any other agency we know of. The building of such a road would be followed—may, preceded—by an activity in business and in real estate which would amply compensate all who have almost got weary in waiting for the good time coming. The Riverside Press and Horticulturist, to which paper we look for reliable information concerning the plans of the California Southern, announces that the line of the new road has been located from Riverside to Arlington, and that a right of way has been obtained across the Yorba ranch at the head of the Santa Ana canyon; and the line, after passing through the canyon, will take such course as may be deemed best after a careful examination of the country. "It will probably be built to those localities which show the 'most friendly feeling.'" The citizens of Riverside and Arlington have guaranteed the company a free right of way to the Temescal wash, and have given them for depot purposes twenty acres at Riverside, twenty acres at Riverside junction and twenty acres at Arlington. In return the company must commence work within thirty days from date, and construct and operate a steam railroad of standard gauge in connection with the California Southern railroad on or before January 1, 1886, from Riverside junction, by way of Riverside, to Arlington, and from Arlington to the Temescal wash within two years. These terms have been acceded to, and at the present date preliminary work has actually been commenced. The Press further says: Under this agreement the company cannot stop short of the Temescal wash, and as they are now getting the right of way down towards the head of the Santa Ana canyon, the indications are good that they will go down into the lower Santa Ana valley and from thence to Los Angeles. The officials of the California Southern will doubtless be among us in due time to secure a right of way for their road, assuming that Friday, Sept. 11.

Petition of citizens of Santa Ana asking an appropriation of $50 to help defray expenses of late memorial services for Gen. U. S. Grant filed. Action deferred. It appearing to this Board that Alex Gardiner, road overseer for North Anahaim, has disposed of thirteen road poll tax receipts to persons having worked out the same, the Board authorizes Auditor to make settlement with said overseer on that basis, and resignation of said overseer is hereby accepted. B. F. Porter was appointed road overseer for North Anahaim, vice Alex. Gardiner, resigned. Appointment of S. Levy as Justice of Los Nietos township made June 3d is hereby revoked, as said Levy has failed to qualify, and Chas S. Hussey appointed to fill the vacancy. On motion, James Hay, John F.

The officials of the California Southern will doubtless be among us due time to secure a right of way for their road, assuming that the programme above outlined is correct. Let them be received with open arms and hospitable intent. The building of the road will more than compensate for any privilege they will ask. It should be the duty of every public-spirited citizen to make a personal effort to overcome any bull-headed opposition which may arise. A Suggestive Record of Progress. The completion of the railroad from Los Angeles to Pasadena was celebrated on Wednesday by an excursion to the "Crown of the Valley." Pasadena is an especially favored spot for many reasons. Its people are thoroughly in love with their home. In their estimation there is no other place in the world like it, and their overweening pride of locality evokes a corresponding enthusiasm among visitors. It numbers among its citizens many men of wealth and a great many of public spirit. They do not spend all their wealth and public spirit in their own yards or in front of their own houses; on the contrary, they are continually devising ways and means of increasing the attractiveness of the whole village and never refuse to lend physical and financial aid towards public improvements because they do not happen to be directly benefited thereby. Although in the main a law-abiding people, it is well known that they have a conveniently-located cemetery for the interment (after death by violence) of any malcontent who speaks disparagingly of Pasadena, or who seeks to discourage investors. And then, it has the powerful aid of the Los Angeles people who, not altogether unselfishly, have done what they could to direct newcomers towards Pasadena. If, in their zealous advocacy of the interests of the town only twelve miles away, they sometimes disparaged the merits of other places, they are not greatly to be blamed. As a result of all these circumstances Pasadena is a live and growing town, with a big future before it. And yet it has not one natural advantage over other places in Southern California which languish and wilt from utter stagnation. The triumph of Pasadena is a triumph of brains allied to public spirit. The same happy combination will accomplish equally good results in many other places. Items About Grape Prices A large winery at Healdaburg is offering as low as $7 per ton for wine grapes of common quality. Chinese are paying $45 per ton net for Bid of S. & P. Townsend accepted and bond fixed at $250. WEDNESDAY, Sept. 15. Telegrams were read from R. Bilderrain and E. W. Malin stating that the State levy would be made next week. George Hinds and District Attorney G. M. Holton were directed to go to Sacramento to assist in presenting this county before the State Board of Equalization. On motion of Supervisor Ross a warrant was ordered drawn on the current expense fund for $100 in favor of G. M. Holton to defray his expenses during his trip to Sacramento. The Chairman of the Board reported that he had turned over to the County Treasurer the bonds recently ordered issued, and had taken his receipt for the same. Adjourned until Wednesday, Sept. 23d, at 10 A.M. Immigration Association At a meeting of citizens held in Los Angeles on Thursday the following was adopted: The name of the association shall be the Southern California Immigration Association. The Board of Directors shall consist of twelve members, two from each of the counties of San Bernardino, San Diego, Ventura, and four from Los Angeles county. The President and Secretary of the County Immigration Association shall be ex-officio members of this Board of Directors except in Los Angeles where there is no local association and in that county this meeting shall today elect the members and the contributing members within the county shall hereafter elect Four members of the Board shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. The Board of Directors as thus constituted shall meet within two weeks and a quorum shall have power to adopt by laws and select the other officers of the association and do any and all acts necessary to carry out the objects of the association. The objects of the association shall be the dissemination of reliable information relative to the resources of the five counties embraced within the scope of its operation, and to cooperate with each of the local immigration associations in the several counties. We recommend that this meeting elect but three members of the Board and that the fourth member shall be filled ex-officio by the Commissioner of Immigration when elected by the Board. In case the officers of the local associations shall decline to accept positions on this Board of Directors, that the Board shall have power to fill such vacancies by electing for the counties thus not represented, other members of such Board. For the representatives of Los Angeles county, Messra J. R. Toberman, M. L. Wicks and H. H. Boyce were chosen. It was resolved to hold a meeting of the directors of the association in Los Angeles on the 2d of October, for the purpose of electing officers and a Commissioner of Immigration for the ensuing year. At that meeting there will also be a set of by-laws adopted and provision made for raising funds for the dissemination of reliable information of our resources and facilities for actual settles and immigrants. It was resolved to expend one hundred dollars for the purchase of copies of the leading newspapers in the different counties, containing articles of information for mailing. About the worst thing we can say of our friend Gardner, of the Pasadena Union, is that he will fritter away his valuable time in writing poetry. The fact that his effusions are uniformly excellent may be pleaded in mitigation of his offense.

McPherson Bros. have been paying $18 per ton for Muscat grapes at Downey, delivered on board the cars for transportation to Orange, where they are being made into raisins. The same firm are paying $16 per ton for Muscat in Anaheim, delivered at the vineyard. Change of Time The S. P. R. R. changes time to-day. Overland passenger trains are due and leave the same as now. The Santa Ana morning train will arrive at Los Angeles at 8 A.M. instead of 8:20 as before, and the mid-day trains to and from Santa Ana will run daily, except Sunday. The emigrant train, West bound, will leave Los Angeles at 8 A.M. and the East bound at 5:00 P.M. The road from Mojave to Sumner will be added to this division in this change, and the large engines will run through to Los Angeles. Wells, Purge & Co. There are packages for the following persons in Wells, Fargo & Co.'s Express Office: R T Harris | O Huechman Mr. Debner of the San Francisco Cash Store has started on a trip to purchase a new fall and winter stock.

London.—In a recent trade-mark suit it was shown by sworn evidence that over nine million battles of St. Jacobs Oil had been held during the past few years. Lead ing chemists certify that the sale of this remedy exceeds that of all others, and that it is being recognized as the best pain cure ever discovered. In serious rheumatism it has accomplished astonishing results. About the worst thing we can say of our friend Gardner, of the Pasadena Union, is that he will fritter away his valuable time in writing poetry. The fact that his offusions are uniformly excellent may be pleaded in mitigation of his offense. This is his latest read at the celebration at Pasadena on Wednesday: As Truy, belenguered, in her hour of need, Gave joyful welcome to the wooden sleet, And poets lauded in heroic strain The culteur courtes of the Grecian plain. So we, the people of another time, Of happier nails and a sunnier climate, Are met with greeting for our modern horse, The triless race of the With course. But not, like Trojans, shall our steed disclose The dread for rumours of a nailon's woes, The armed battalions and the waste of war That ravaged Trojas in her peaceful shore The shock of battles and the din of arms That wrecked her happiness in War's alarm, The dreadful thunders of an angry fate That sealed the fortunes of a fallen State. Not blessings, rather, in her peaceful train Attend our counsel of the smiling plain The hum of Labor in her busy wheels The horn of Plenty in her bugle peals The lengthened animals of her smoky flues The tranquill curlings of the pipe of pearls And let her progress through a chosen land Make smiling industry on every hand, The voice of labor and the snares of peace, Old homes accumulating and wealth increase And cities hasten in her mighty wake To swell the fortunes of a rising state. Then holdest our fortunes, oh engines! Ob stand of the flying wheel! As the brazen inscription Of the life that the Nablon feels. As the fiery winged apache Of civilization's march. Where at once—in her pride—hath raised her Her grandest triumphal arch. A Senseless Law On last Saturday the New Hampshire Legislature passed a bill which will compel all the insurance companies that have offices in that State to pay over the entire amount of the insurance on every building that is damaged by fire. That is, if a building is insured for $20,000 and the damage done by fire can be repaired for $10,000, the entire amount of the insurance will have to be paid to the holder of the policy. Ninety-five per cent of the companies have ordered their New Hampshire agents to close their offices and forward all their books to the main offices. Among these companies are the Home of New York, Elma and Phoenix of Hartford, the Insurance Company of North America and Franklin Fire of Philadelphia, and the Liverpool and London and Globe, and the Commercial Union of England. The English companies will cancel all their policies in New Hampshire on Jan. 1st. Nons of the other companies will cancel existing policies at present. It is estimated that about $10,000,000 of insurance will expire in New Hampshire within three months. At the meeting held at Sandhurst for the formation of a Vine and Fruit-growing Association, says the Melbourne Leander samples of a grape oil were laid before the meeting from R.

Fresh butter and eggs always on hand at Kellogg Bros.' A tourist passing through a village observed the following on a board: "Horses taken in to grass. Long tails, $1 50; short tails, $1." The owner of the land being asked the reason of the difference in price, replied: "You see, ma'am, the long tails can brush away the flies, but the short ones are so tormented by them they can hardly eat at all!" Clothing cheaper at Kellogg Bros.' than in Los Angeles. A Selfeat gentleman and wife were riding out one day recently and stopped at a house on Northport avenue, and asked for a drink of milk. The young lady informed him that they had only skimmed milk, which the gentleman said would do. After drinking the man insisted upon paying for it, but the young lady refused. She finally said, "We want no pay, we give skimmed milk to pigs." Celebrated Eola Tea at Kellogg Bros.'
