The Weekly Gazette. ISSUE EVERY THURSDAY Henry Kuchel, Charles Kurbel, Entrepreneurs THURSDAY AUGUST 1, 1890 We give place this morning to a communication from a resident of Fallerton who has all along opposed the formation of the new irrigation district, and who sends some of the reasons why he still objects to it. A few words in this connection, in relation to our water system, will be in order. The stockholders of the Anahein Water Company are not, as our correspondent would have it, the sole owners of the available water in the river, to the exclusion of all others. That the water company refuses to furnish water to individuals not whose interests are not to be courted, but those who refuse to support the company's water system can hardly expect water to be furnished them when there is barely enough to go to the stockholders. Under the new order of things the people of the valley will occupy the position with regard to irrigation, which the stockholders of the water company have occupied in the past. The people bear the expense of the district, and benefits accrue alike to all. It a settler expects water to be delivered to him, to the exclusion of others to whom it properly belongs, and who pay for bringing it from the river, the sooner he disables his mind the better. The statement which our correspondent makes, that the old irrigation district was formed to allow the old company to dispose of its shares, debt, water outlines and all, is misleading to say the least. The other statement that the stockholders of the Anahein Water Company claim the sole ownership of all the water because they are totally disguised with having assessments to pay, is better fitted to grace the continues of the average waste basket than to appear in the columns of a newspaper. We print merely to show the charming philosophy which runs through the line of antagonism to the district. Of course the Anahein Water Company receives payment for the delivery of water to shareholders. Why should it not? Does our correspondent expect to receive it gratis? The water in the river is public use. Anyone may go and get it.* But one cannot ask a company of individuals to construct and deliver at any point on the coast at much less cost than any quarry can supply stone by rail. The transaction is nearly communicated that it can be considered as assured: The amount to be invested is not known exactly, but it will make the entire amount invested through Mr. J. D. Spreckels in and about San Diego something over one million dollars. Seventh Annual State Viticultural Convention. The State Viticultural Commission requests the publication of the following call for the next State Viticultural Convention. The wine industry in this State is lagging, and touch of the attention of the convention will be devoted to considering means looking toward its revival and assistance. The industry has done much to spread the fame of the State abroad, and to make it prosperous. The grape growers, the wine makers, the wine merchants, alike are suffering from the effects of an unprecedented stagnation in the industry. The interests of every Californian are involved directly or indirectly, and the attention of the people must be brought to the steps necessary to bring about a much desired period of prosperity. San Francisco, July 23, 1899: To one sparser, wine makers, dealers, and all others interested in the promotion of viticulture in California; By order of the Board of State Viticultural Commissioners, the Seventh Annual Viticultural Convention for California will be held in the State Viticultural Hall (formerly Platt's Hall), 216 Montgomery street, San Francisco, from August 13 to 17 inclusive. The foremost of each day will be given to the examination of viticultural products, sampling, etc., from 10 A.M. to 12 M. At 3 P.M. reports and papers will be read, each subject being followed by open discussion. The evening of each day will be devoted to a continuance of the afternoon, commencing at 8 P.M. Due to the peculiar circumstances under which vine growers are suffering at the present time, it it thought advisable to concentrate the work of the convention as much as possible upon discussions relating to: First—The condition now prevailing in the markets of viticultural products, and the causes of depression in prices of wines. Second—Present prosperity of the raisin and table grape industries, and possible dangers for the future. Third—Remedies for present difficulties, including drying of wine grapes, distilling, cooperative organizations, popular agencies in Eastern States and foreign countries, improvements in qualities of products, and notable defects that may be overcome. Fourth—Legislation, National and State nature and effects of local restrictions on water vents at a very alight expense, and delivered at any point on the coast at much less cost than any quarry can supply stones by rail. The transaction is nearly communicated that it can be considered as assured: The amount to be invested is not known exactly, but it will make the entire amount invested through Mr. J. D. Spreckels in and about San Diego something over one million dollars. Seventh Annual State Viticultural Convention.

The hoomsum.late.thearrivelayevent totally disguised with having assessments to pay, is better fitted to grace the confines of the average waste basket than to appear in the columns of a newspaper. We print it merely to show the charming philosophy which runs through the line of antagonism to the district. Of course the Anaheim Water Company receives payment for the delivery of water to shareholders. Why should it not? Does our correspondent expect to receive it gratis? The water in the river is of public use. Anyone may go and get it. But one cannot ask a company of individuals to construct and maintain an expensive system of ditches and then to forcish him with water without charge. He must pay for the same and pay for the maintenance of canals, which it is found necessary to construct, to bring water from the river. Where people have had to fight for their water, as we have done in the past, it is not to be supposed that it can be furnished to those who detray some of the expense incurred in its development. Under the new irrigation district an individual cannot own a hundred acres of land and pay water assessments upon only five If he cannot pay assessments upon the whole of his tract let him dispose of alliment to enable him to do so. This practice of holding large traps, presumably for speculative purposes, paying no taxation for irrigation, while smaller farmers bear that expense year in and year out, has been the very bane of our existence. Let every acre pay its pro-rata, and let water freely run to every part of the district including the ninety-five acres of which our respected correspondent is the owner, but which have not been irrigated for let these many years. Conservation space is given this morning to Bailard's second article upon rattlesnakes and their poison. The Doctor's article last week was universally commented upon as being a most available and especially valuable contribution. The article this morning deals mainly with antiques for snake poison, together with other interesting data connected with the deadly cretains, which should be known by those who are liable in out of the way places, to come in contact with the rattler. There is knowledge to be gained in following the thorough of the Doctor's tractile pen. Here we are again completely at the mercy of the enemy! Our town Lyrothers, comprising the flower of our young manhood, depart in a few days for their annual en- equipment at Pacific Beach leaving our amasses exposed to attack from every quarter. But while they are away we shall all endeavor, with thought of the traditional life and drum, to keep the enemy at bay, and so holding them, pray for our soldier boys return. Come what may; however, we trust that our company of units may return with laurels freshly won, and that our guardamen will see deport themselves both in line and out, as to reflect credit upon themselves as gentlemen and soldiers. May they all enjoy themselves hugely and beat the homeward march with colors flying on which vine growers are suffering at the present time, it it thought advisable to concentrate the work of the convention as much as possible upon discussions relating to: First—The condition now prevailing in the markets of viticultural products, and the causes of depression in prices of wines. Second—Present prosperity of the raisin and table grape industries, and possible dangers for the future. Third—Remedies for present difficulties, including drying of wine grapes, distilling, cooperative organizations, popular agencies in Eastern States and foreign countries, improvements in qualities of products, and notable defects that may be overcome. Fourth—Legislation, National and State nature and effects of local restrictions on trade through municipal and State laws, Internal Revenue regulations, and popular customs. Fifth—Possible cooperation between dealers and producers to maintain production on a profitable basis. Special requests will be sent to prominent experienced men to prepare papers on these subjects, and one day will be devoted to hearing the views of merchants, all of whom are earnestly requested to participate throughout in the discussions. Heretofore samples of wines have been exhibited at these annual conventions, mainly for instructive comparisons, and much benefit has been derived from careful sampling. It has been found impossible, however, to do justice to all the samples forwarded, and, as much as the reasons for showing and comparing all the ordinary young stocks in cellars do not exist now, as formerly, when many were nexxperienced, it is desired that samples of wines and brandies for examination be limited as follows: First—Wines or brands procured from important and comparatively new varieties of vines, such as the Meadows, Sauernas, Burgundies, Sherries, Malerias and Cognacs. Second—Old wines, however small the quantities which they represent, to illustrate the possible development by age and bottling. Third—Any exceptionally fine wines or brands of any age or character. Fourth Characteristic samples of stock of the most generally cultivated varieties showing local excellences or character. Three bottles of each kind should be sent in each plainly labeled with name of variety, grower, place, age, etc. One set of these samples will be submitted to committees appointed for examination and report. Those attending the convention will be afforded the usual opportunities for sampling. Raisin producers are specially requested to discuss and make known all necessary and improved appliances used in drying grapes and to make exhibits of the same. Also to show such samples of raisins as they can. An effort will be made to procure good samples of the various kinds of grapes at that time ripening. Dealers in vineyard supplies are specially requested to make exhibit of approved materials used in clarification of vines with instructions as to their use. Notice will be given through the press of speakers who shall have been engaged to prepare papers. A large and full attendance is requested, as much good is expected to flow from this convention, in promoting harmony of action. N.B. Send all exhibits so as to arrive before August 13th, by Wells, Pargo & Co., Express, addressed to State Vitucultural Commission, also marking same with the word "Convention." Very respectfully, CHARLES B. TURNER, Secretary. And Then the Affair El Cajon Star. Of the many good things that have been written by the editors who visited El Cajon valley recently, the following from The Anaheim Gazette is especially worthy of reproduction. That is a merry lot of contributors which the Los Angeles press has stirred up in soothing suggestions for a name to give the "great hotel on Tenth street." We suggest "Grand View," after the "Bunch of Keys," and when any guests arrive, if any should arrive, let Front run up stairs and ring every bell in the house. That will give them an idea the house is full of guests, and that the boom is not "busted" after all. There are remedies that the wine-growers can adopt for themselves in view of the present stagnation in their business without waiting the slow action of Congress to give relief as recommended by a contemporary. The first is by a scheme of cooperation that has met the favor of almost all the growers, to wit, the co-operative brandy distilleries. This scheme has been indorsed in a slightly different form by the Grape-growers and Winemakers' Association. It is in the power of the growers themselves to carry it out without placing a great burden on any of them. A brandy distillery of a capacity to handle the surplus of a district could be established for a reasonable sum. Once the distilleries were widely established they would have an immediate effect on prices by furnishing a ready method of turning the wines into a form easily preservable. Brandy finds a market without difficulty, and there is no danger that it will spoil by keeping. The distilleries would thus decrease the output of wine and the decrease would come on the grades that are the least credit to the wine-grower, and do the most harm to the market. The distillery would thus put the growers in a more independent position when the dealer offered them half price for their wines. Mr. J. D. Spreckles is contemplating a large transaction in reference to the acquisition of the Coronado Islands and the quarry privileges. These islands are formed of the most excellent granite and building stones, which can be quarried and loaded into deep-cleaned casks. And Then the Affinatus El Cajon Star. Of the many good things that have been written by the editors who visited El Cajon valley recently, the following from the Anaheim Gazette, is especially worthy of reproduction. Consumption Surely Curied. To THE EDITOR—Please inform your readers that I have a positive remedy for the above named disease.

Conductor Parker, of the Atlantic and Pacific railroad, while at Ash Hill, 130 miles out on the desert near Daggett, last week, saw a pigeon flying around as though hunting for water. He tried several times to catch it, but when he got close the bird would fly away. Having a small tail along, he crippled one wing, when he discovered that it was a carrier pigeon bearing a love letter in a goose quill tied to its right wing. The letter was dated New York, and directed to a young lady in San Francisco. The names he would not give. As soon as the bird recovers it will be turned loose to complete its journey.

Cruz, Cal., July 28. The elogement case of Neil Habbs and Miss Eva Athima, mentioned in the Gazette last week, culminated in a tragedy this afternoon. Hubba and wife were preparing to make Mrs. Barney, Mrs. Habbs' mother, a visit this afternoon, as she had forgiven them, and invited them to visit her. Raymond Bierce, the young man who was to have married the gul the night after her elopement, and who is the son of the widely known San Francisco journalist, Ambrose Bierce, heard of the proposed visit and went ahead to the house, stating to Mr. Barney that he was sick and wanted to his down. He laid down in a bedroom next to the parlor. On the arrival of Hubba and wife Bierce stepped out of the room and said: "You are a happy-looking married couple." Then he walked into the bedroom, closing the door. Hubba drew a pistol, holding it at his side. Bierce threw open the door and fired, the bullet striking Hubba, who fell to the floor, retiring the fire. Four shots apiece were fired, when Hubba got up and ran outside. Bierce locked the door and seized Mrs. Hubba. Mrs. Barney grabbed Bierce and was thrown to the floor. He then placed the revolver to Mrs. Hubba head and shot. She screamed and fell to the floor. Hubba broke in the door, fired another shot at Bierce, grabbed him by the throat and hammered him over the head with his revolver. They fought for about ten minutes, when Bierce fell to the floor. Hubba picked up his wife and carried her to a neighbor's house. Bierce dragged himself to the bedroom, covered his head with a cloth saturated with chloroform, placed his pistol to his right temple, and not himself. His brains were scattered over the counterpane. He died an hour and a half later. He had received several bullets in his body during the fray. Hubba was shot through the abdomen, the bullet penetrating the spleen. His recovery is extremely doubtful. Mrs. Hubba was hit behind the right ear; the bullet struck the skull and plowed its way round the head. Her wound is severe but not dangerous. The room where the fighting took place presented a horrible spectacle. The walls are spattered with blood; the furniture was turned over and broken, and large pools of blood covered the floor. Bierce lay on the bed with a hole in his head, from which the brains issued. The revolver was still in his hand. Hubba died on the morning after the shooting and was taken to Stockton for burial. Bierce was taken to St. Helena and buried beside the grave of his mother. A sensation was caused at Chico by Mrs. Barney's statement that Hubba tired first, thus changing her testimony as given at the inquest. New Arrival come to stay. The house of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Hounson, lately from Dakota, was gladdened by the arrival of a bran new baby boy on Sunday evening, July 28th. His weight is nine Battlemanke Wood. Last week, while a young named Barra, and a companion named Frank Post, were set fishing, a rattlesnake hit the former. Post killed the snake on the wound. He then took Barns on his back and carried him a distance of two miles over a very rough country, having at times to crawl on his hands and knees. On arriving at a camp of a party of hannah Barns' leg was found to have swollen furryly, and the prison had no taken hold of his system as to name his jaws to set. Post, however, met himself to work, and finding some rattlesnake weed, made a ten of the same name and after pitting down the wounded man's throat, placed the remainder on the wound. This treatment alleviated Barns' sufferings to a considerable extent, and Post proceeded in search of middle horses, which he found after walking five miles. Returning to camp, he found his companion out of danger, and after applying more of the wood, took Barns to his home at W. B. Post's, where the latter is reported having completely recovered from the bite. Too much praise cannot be given Frank Post, who proved himself so valuable in saving his companion's life, and the tent fully establishes the effectiveness of rattlesnake weed in case of snake bites.

Princess Louise Victoria Alexandra Dagmar, the eldest daughter of the Princes of Wales, was born on the 20th of February, 1867. She is considered the plainest of the daughters of the Prince; inheriting little of her mother's beauty but her fine complexion. Her features are of the Hanovarian mold. A better pledge of domestic happiness of the Earl who has married her is found in the fact that she has inherited her mother's amenable disposition and has grown up under her mother's excellent training. The daughters of the Prince have been taught simple habits and useful employments. Their lives have been uneventual. They are happy in having no history. The princess furnishes the second example within recent times of a daughter of the English royal house marrying below royal rank. Her aunt of the same name, who married the Marquis of Lorne, set the example that Louise has followed. The present marriage is more pleasing to the people of Great Britain than the marriage of Great Britain. FOR SALE FIVE ACRE CHOICE LAW BUENA PARK Being N ½ of Lot 10, WH Addition.

Prepared by Sergeant Thomas, with A Langenberger July 25 20 27 28 29 30 31 July 26 27 28 29 30 31 How Chinamen Pray. When John Chinanan goes to pray in his own orthodox style, and not "allice same Melikan man," he stands on a carpet in front of the high altar on which sits the life sized, gorgeously dressed god, "Jos." In his hand he holds two pieces of wood, round on one side and flat on the other. After saying his prayer he drops these on the carpet, and according as they fall he knows whether or not the prayer is answered. If both sticks fall on their flat side the omen is very bad; if one falls on the flat, the other on its round side, his prayer is granted; if both fall on their round sides it is a sign of being partly granted. Another way of praying is by means of small strips of red payer, on which the prayer is printed and then pinned to the wall near the door. If a Chinese woman wishes for a son she sends in her printed slip; if a Chinese man wishes to send a horse or a house to some departed spirit he cuts out an image of it on the ship. The fire is the means of communicating with heaven, so after a while the priest burns all these paper prayers in handsome bronze furnace, which stands outside the door, and thus they are supposed to go direct to heaven.—Chicago Times. Guffing His Pa. Youngsters are great people. What would our homes be without them? A little fellow of 3 has lately been listening to the teachings of a fond father who has been trying to drill him in the tuneful strains of that popular song entitled "Listen to the Tale of Woe." The father would pick the air out with one finger on the plains and hum the words to his hopeful. The other morning the fond father was in bed, indulging in one of those luxurious cat naps of the early dawn, when his car was suddenly seized and rudely jerked. This sudden awakening brought him to his elbow, and he saw his young son retreating toward the door. Fun was fun, he admitted, but he did not like this, and he proceeded to give the little fellow a heavy verbal dressing. The boy backed toward the door, listening the while, and as he turned to go out he sang, in a childish treble, the first words of his papa's song: "Listen to the Tale of Woe." The father was hot then, and if he could have reached the boy there would certainly have been heard the notes of another and more dire "tale of woe."—Chicago Herald. A Sure Remedy.
