THE OPIUM FARMER. "The opium farmer of India lives and labors with but three objects in view. These are, first, to decorate his wife profusely with ornaments, to eat off a brass plate, and to be in a position to make a great display when his eldest son is married. As far as the wife's jewelry is concerned, that is a matter of religious duty, the Hindoo religion demanding that certain ornaments must be worn by married women, and the real wealth, if wealth it may be called, of the native landowner is his wife's jewels, and whatever a husbandman can gain by his poppy culture he immediately invests in jewelry, the same as the Yankee farmer places his money in bond and mortgage. If the Indian farmer on marrying cannot do any better in the way of jewelry, he must give the bride he obtains lead ornaments. This keeps the religious form, but the very first year he has been energetic enough to raise a good opium crop the lead jewelry gives place to silver or gold. On the marriage of his oldest son an Indian farmer will waste in a week's jollification the entire savings of years of privation. "It is a strange sight to see the Hindoo woman at work in the fields, gathering poppy juice or picking weeds; decked out with huge gold rings, bracelets, anklets and chains, and wearing but a single short petticoat and a gay colored wrap of light texture. The wants of the Indian raiat, as the farmer is called, are very few and simple. A thatched roof, covering four confined mud walls, shelters him, and there are families who have lived for hundreds of years, generation after generation, in the same loveliness put it to chemical tests as well. After the opium is all weighed and tested the different farmers receive the amount their yield entitles them to, less the government advances, and the gay procession takes up its march for home. The opium is forwarded to Calcutta in boxes known as opium chests, and the insidious drug is ready to be sent on its mission of blessing to many and of misery to many more." — New York Sun. TEACHING A CALE. Once upon a time there was a certain man who had lived on a farm in an amateurish way for about three months; and on a beautiful summer day he girded up his loins and went forth, with all the strength of his manhood and a pail of fresh milk, to teach a little red calf, with soft brown eyes, to obtain the lacteal nourishment in other than the way prescribed by Nature. The little creature was waiting, all alone, in one corner of a shed, each leg braced in a different direction, and with a wondering expression on its flat little cardinal-colored face. Subsequently the following little monologue might have been heard by a listener in the adjoining shed: "So-o, Bossy, so-o—so-o—so-o." "Nice Bossy, Bossy, Bossy. Here's some nice milk for him to drink." "Put his nose right down in the pail, good boss. Ha-ar! Where you going? Cohé back here! Now get into that corner and drink your milk, you ornery brute!" "Nice milk—good for calfy. Drink, like a good bossy." "You won't, eh? Get your foot out of THE TRIBU It Talks About B Los Angeles Ansheim is taking the semi tropic "boo shaking herself loose," the past thirty years the very foremost rank all the southern press and wire to tell of each section, in or land buyers and be doors, old Anaheim tenor of her way, too rise in reality, and much for any increase.

The quietness of the astrous only to the fear of their property. W and higher all around have remained at the Eastern speculator quered." He stood where the Teutonic army tent, and "from the sea," he behold vineyards and orchard tiful homes, aligned and rich as the prom resources. He has himself the possessor "It is a strange sight to see the Hindoo woman at work in the fields, gathering poppy juice or picking weeds, decked out with huge gold rings, bracelets, anklets and chains, and wearing but a single short petcush coat and a gay-colored wrap of light texture. The wants of the Indian raat, as the farmer is called, are very few and simple. A thatched roof, covering four confined mud walls, shelters him, and there are families who have lived for hundreds of years, generation after generation, in the same hovel-like homestead. The farmer's suit of every day working clothes is a very scant cloth fastened about his loins. His 'dress up' suit is a big cotton sheet folded about him. His entire family, from himself down to the smallest child he owns, that is not too small to crawl about among the poppy plants and know the difference between a weed and a poppy, share in the toil of the field. The small children are clothed just as they came into the world, and appear comfortable, no matter how hot the sun shines or how low the temperature may fall; and in November, December, January and February, when the bulk of the field work is done, the weather is quite cold enough for at least summer clothing. "These happy go-lucky tillers of the soil depend entirely on the Government to keep them going year after year in the matter of farming. Thus the Government advances the poppy seed that is to be sown, loans the money by which the land is irrigated and the ballocks purchased to carry on the work. The cultivator will not till more of his land than he can manage without other help than his own immediate family, and consequently a leased patch to any one farmer that is half an acre in extent is an exceptionally large holding. The one twentieth of an acre, called a bigka, is the favorite quantity of land for a farmer to seed down with poppies, but he will put in a tent or a sixth on a pinch. There are untold advantages in the growing of opium for extended enterprise, but the raiat will not expend the smallest Indian coin to acquire these advantages, and with it great gain, for the profit in opium production is large, owing to the policy of the government in paying large prices for the product as a means of precluding illicit traffic in it. "The farmers themselves have no direct intercourse with the government. Each village of opium growers select some native as their representative or agent with the authorities. He is called the lambardar. It is his business to give estimates to the government agents as to the probable yield of the farms he represents, on which the loans and advances may be based. He manages every transaction between the government and the people, and for his services he gets a commission on all the opium he causes to be delivered to what are known as the weighing stations—points where the product of certain districts is carried by the growers and turned over to the agents." Horrible Punishment. The Foochow, China, Echo says: At a place close by the well-known teahouse on the road to the city, is to be seen a man in a cage, with a cangus on his neck to keep him standing on his toes only, and in this position he will be left till relieved by death. Upon inquiry we were told that he is a Taouiat priest, and the crime he committed was that about a fortnight ago he put on a woman's dress and went into a house where no one but a newly married young girl was left. He boldly informed the girl that he was her aunt, and come purposely to see her, and of course the girl believing this. Subsequently the following little monologue might have been heard by a listener in the adjoining shed: "So-o, Bossy, so-o- so-o- so-o-." Nice Bossy, Bossy, Bossy. Here's some nice milk for him to drink." Put his nose right down in the pail, good boss. Ha-ar! Where you going? Come back here! Now get into that corner and drink your milk, you orery brute! "Nice milk—good for calfy. Drink, like a good boss." "You won't, eh? Get your foot out of that pail, you galwhanged, mooley-headed little fool." There, there. So-o-o, poor calfy, calty. Drink his milk to make him grow like a-get off my foot, you dolgasted, clumsy,bull-headed lunatic! "Come now, I've fooled long enough. Stick your nose in that pail! Stick it in there, I say, or I'll—so-o-o-h! what are you buttin' me in the stomach for? Get over there, now, so-o-o." "You can have just one more chance; I'll just stick my fingers in bossy's mouth, and take his head between my legs, and then the little fellow can see how—Hold on there—where you going? Let me off—you'll tip over the milk pail—whoop! There she goes—take that, and that, and that, and starve to death if you want to, you addle-pated, low-lived little runt of a Durham—On don't stare at me in that way, you blank, blanked four-footed lunatic!" "Oh, you needn't blat at me—you want your milk bad enough now—there it is; six quarts, at three cents—a quart, gone to waste! You can stand in there and blat and starve till wheat is two dollars a bushel before I'll lift a finger to such a measly, knock knotted, big-eared, slab-sided imp of Satan as you are! I'd as lief plow six acres in a day!" And he went back to the house and held his peace; and when he hired man came in he remarked, as though the thought had just occurred to him, that when the hired man got a little time he had better teach that red calf in the sheep shed to drink; and the hired man went out straightway and taught him, in just six minutes by the nickel-plated watch which he traded the shotgun for.—Puck.

He manages every transaction between the government and the people, and for his services he gets a commission on all the opium he causes to be delivered to what are known as the weighing stations—points where the product of certain districts is carried by the growers and turned over to the agents. "The opium gathering begins in January or February. The poppy flowers have then given way to the seed pods, which are lanced in the afternoon. The thick gum, the opium, exudes from the cut made in the pod, and at daylight the next morning the entire family of a raiat are astir in the fields, scraping the opium from the pods, the incisions being carefully closed again, by rubbing the finger sharply up and down on the cuts, which glues them. If carefully treated the pods will expand liberally to six lancings. The opium is at first placed in brass vessels and the dew that may adhere to it is drained off. Then it is kneaded like dough until it is at the proper consistency, when it is packed in new earthern jars and is ready to be carried to the weighing stations. "The other to fetch in the year's crop of opium is generally given early in April, and that is the most interesting season of the year to the raiat and his family. Each farmer is notified that on a certain day he must be at the weighing station of his district for the testing and weighing. An entire village, men, women and children, join in joyous procession when this notice is received, and, laden with the jars of opium, start for the destination. They travel only at night, as the heat of the sun is so great at that season of the year that the journey would be unendurable. All day they lounge in the groves and shady lanes, feasting and joining in various recreations. These way-side camps of the opium villages are picturesque sights to the traveler through these provinces. When a group arrives at the weighing station they are arranged in long lines before the examiner, who examines the opium of each one and marks the quality and weight of each jar with a piece of chalk on the side of the jar. The examiners are experts and can tell by the feeling whether a sample of opium is adulterated, but they The Foochow, China, Echo says: At a place close by the well-known teahouse on the road to the city, is to be seen a man in a cage, with a cangus on his neck to keep him standing on his toes only, and in this position he will be left till relieved by death.

He boldly informed the girl that he was her aunt, and come purposely to see her, and of course the girl believing this, nothing was left undone for the comfort of her supposed aunt during the whole day. At night the young girl offered her room and bed to her aunt, so they both were in the room talking, when suddenly the girl observing that the legs of her aunt were covered with hair, at once suspected that some mystery existed, because a woman never has hair on her legs. Showing no excitement she told her aunt that she must go and get her clothing that had been left on the terrace and that she would come back shortly. As soon as she got out she shut the door and went into the next house and called for assistance, when at once a crowd of men rushed in and arrested the man, and they found on his person a pair of Chinese daggers. He was at once taken to the Magistrate, and is now in the cage to die that horrible death. Soothes and Heals.

THE TRIBUNE'S TRIBUTE. It Talks About Anaheim's Big Boom. Los Angeles Tribune, Aug. 17. Anaheim is taking on all the attributes of the semi-tropic "boom." The old town is shaking herself loose from the traditions of the past thirty years, and takes her place in the very foremost ranks of progress. While all the southern country has been using press and wire to tell about the attractions of each section, in order to draw newcomers, land-buyers and home-builders to their doors, old Anaheim has kept on in the even tenor of her way, too prosperous to care for a rise in realty, and too well settled to care much for any increase to her population. But even iron bars and stone walls would not keep the shrewd speculators out of Anaheim. Her material resources are too many, too great, too well-known to fail to attract attention. The light of the "mother colony" is too great to put it under any fellow's bushel measure. The quietness of the town has proved disastrous only to the fellows who have let go of their property. While values rose higher and higher all around the county, prices have remained at the level of old times. The Eastern speculator "came," saw and conquered." He stood on the proud eminence where the Teutonic settler in 1857 pitched his tent, and "from the center all round to the sea," he beheld a land covered with vineyards and orchards, studded with beautiful homes, aligned with green hedgerows, and rich as the promised land in all material resources. He has been quietly making himself the possessor of many tracts of those :: The Greatest :: :: SLAUGHTER SALE :: —OF— DRY GOODS AND CLOTHING Ever known on the Pacific Coast, —AT— A.

He is wearing a dark coat and light pants. The street is lined with trees and buildings. A sign above the door reads "The Vinehopper." The vinehopper has made its appearance in considerable numbers in the vicinity of Pacheco, Contra Costa county. It is feared that unless checked serious damage will result. A letter has been received from a vineyardist of that locality, asking information of the State Viticultural Commission as to the best method of destroying this pest. The insect is of the grasshopper family, but is so minute as to be almost invisible to the eye. Chief Executive Officer Wheeler is of the opinion that the pest has made its appearance too late in the season to do much harm. It is more destructive in the early spring.
