The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. Henry Kuchel, Charles Kuchel, Editors and Producers. THURSDAY...SEPTEMBER 24, 1891. The Mikado wrot, saying that unless an execution took place within the corporate limits of the town of Titipu within the period of the then rapidly declining year, he should be compelled to reduce the town to the ranks of a village and abolish the office of Executioner. The report of the Division Inspector, N. G. C., on the inspection of the recent encampment of the First Brigade at Santa Monica, while it's different recommends, among a lot of other unholy things, that if Company D of Ventura shall not take occasion to brace up speedily and become more soldierly, it should be disbanded, when the Seventh Regiment will be reduced to the size of a battalion, and the rank of Colonel—like that of the Executioner in the play—abolished. The report of the Divination Inspector is characterized as being unduly harsh by the guardsmen. It constitutes a most severe and sweeping arraignment of the recent encampment, and notably of the Seventh Regiment, the criticism of one of the companies of which being but a step removed from an order to muster it out. The Inspector says that drains and garbage at the encampment were poorly provided for, and sinks were in a filth condition; salutes to officers were poor; runs and dirt on many rifles in the Seventh showed lack of care by men and supervision by officers; a large proportion of the men in both regiments were uncleanly, and showed lack of personal interest in their appearance, particularly as to gloves, collars and boots; officers and men made little if any effort to make a soldier-like appearance; too much argument and solicitation prevailed in place of absolute command in company formation. And a lot more to the same effect. The criticism is scathing indeed, but we are satisfied the Anaheim boys are responsible for none of it. The appearance of white scalp at Garden Grove, as mentioned in these columns last week, makes it very serious matter re- ern Pacific Railroad, affirming the judgment of the Superior Court, which awarded plaintiff damages in the sum of $8,500. This is the case where a boy eight years old, at Santa Ana, had his leg injured while playing with other boys on a turn-table belonging to the company. As the result of the accident the boy's leg was amputated. The company contended that it was not guilty of negligence; that the turn-table was fastened in the usual manner, and the plaintiff was wrongfully upon the premises. The court holds that it is a maxim of the law that one must use and enjoy his property as to interfere as little as possible with the comfort and safety of others, consistently with its proper use. Whether in this case there was such negligence as to constitute legal negligence, was a matter of fact for the jury. It is no answer to say that the child was a trespasser, and that the law imposes no duty on the defendant to make its premises a safe playing ground for children. A child is expected to exercise such care and self-restraint as belongs to childhood. The fact that the turn-table was latched was not conclusive proof that the defendant exercised ordinary care; and that the liability of the defendant is not affected by the fact that the turn-table was set in motion by the negligent act of other boys. Denth of Balmaceda. A cable telegram from Valparaiso says that Balmaceda shot himself through the temple in his room at the Argentine legation in Santiago on Saturday morning. The story became known in Valparaiso Saturday afternoon and created the greatest excitement. Saturday evening the city was brilliantly illuminated and on every hand were heard sounds of rejoicing. It is now known that the story that Balmaceda escaped on United States steamer to San Francisco was erroneous. Instead, he left Santiago August 29, in the hope of escaping from the country, but finding every avenue closed he returned to the city September 2, and went direct to the Argentine legation. Since then he has been extremely nervous. No one save the Argentine minister and one other man devoted to Balmaceda was permitted to see him. About 8 o'clock Saturday morning a pistol shot was heard in Balmaceda's room, and Senor Urirrbia rushing in found that the ex-President had just put a bullet into his brain. The Junta was notified and a committee immediately went to the house and viewed the body. As the news spread crowds of people gathered around the Argentine legation. They cheered, hooted and nearly went into a frenzy over the death of their late enemy. Above all were heard shouts congratulating him that in taking his own life he had escaped a worse fate at the hands of the Junta. He left a letter to his mother and also a statement to the New York Journal. Orange County Fair. EDITOR GAZETTE. I wish to caution you of the people of Anaheim. My ange County Fair. Last year this area charged a fee of $2, or rather required son who desired to enter an article bition to purchase an exhibition timing $2. In many instances this way to work a hardship, as some wishes one or two articles and did not care for fair every day. This year this tion does not charge any entrant for fair every day.

The indications are that they assurance Union will meet and commute tariff rates of the non-union rate. This will have a tendency to drive non-union companies, providing them do not appreciate the favor and give fair share of their work.

We have never had a visitation of this dreaded enemy of the orange. It is more ravenous than the red scale, and possibly more destructive than all the other scale pests put together. Our immunity in the past has been a piece of rare good fortune. We must guard against this pest by prompt and vigorous measures. Notwithstanding the infested trees were promptly chopped down and burned, it is possible that patches of this scale may be found in other places in the valley in the usual unaccountable way. Let our orchardists keep vigilant watch for the pest, and knock his eye out as soon as he appears. The Horticultural Commissioners should send immediately for a colony of *vedalia cardinalis*, to be kept for an emergency. It is hardly necessary to chop down good orange trees if they have a little scale upon them. Place the parasites on the trees; the scale will disappear in short order. Our friend J. W. Jeffrey, editor of the Azusa *Pomotropic*, one of the best of our exchanges, announces that he will be a candidate for the vacant Horticultural Commissionship of Los Angeles county. The Board of Supervisors could not possibly make a better selection. Mr. Jeffrey is possessed of good executive ability, has been at the head of a horticultural journal for five years and has spent a lifetime in the orchard and nursery business. A better man for the position could not be found. Too Horticultural Commissioners are chosen without regard to their fitness for the office. And too often they use their office for the furtherance of their own selfish ends. We have in mind a Commissioner who favored the purchase of the twilight patent because its purchase might pave the way for the sale of a similar patent which he himself had in course of incubation. The Supervisors cannot be too careful in their selection of these officials. A negligent or incompetent Commissioner is a thousand times worse than none at all. We should be pleased to see Mr. Jeffrey appointed, knowing that the orchardists of Los Angeles county would have in him a faithful, painstaking, competent and vigorous official. We of Orange county look to Los Angeles for the appointment of an efficient Commissioner. We cannot fight scale pests here without the cordial co-operation of the horticulturists of Los Angeles. save the Argentine minister and one other man devoted to Balmaceda was permitted to see him. About 8 o'clock Saturday morning a pistol shot was heard in Balmaceda's room, and Senior Urriburia rushing in found that the ox-President had just put a bullet into his brain. The Junta was notified and a committee immediately went to the house and viewed the body. As the news spread crowds of people gathered around the Argentine legation. They cheered, hoisted and nearly went into a frenzy over the death of their late enemy. Above all were heard shouts congratulating him that in taking his own life he had escaped a worse fate at the hands of the Junta. He left a letter to his mother and also a statement to the New York Herald. As almost the last declarations of a dying man they are of especial importance. He says, among other things: "I acted during the past eighteen months with the conviction that I was right. I had no one in the army I could trust. The generals lied to me. Had they observed my orders, I think the battle of Concord would have resulted in the defeat of the enemy. "My heart has been with Chile, through this whole trouble. I thought to rescue my country from foreign domination, and make her the first republic in America." "My enemies say I was cruel. Circumstances compelled me to sanction certain acts, but many acts attributed to me I never knew until after they had been committed. Until the final battle of Placencia I had strong hopes of triumphing over my enemies. My generals assured me of victory. But they all lied. I know now they only pretended to be my friends because of the money they could get from me. All the money I have is $2,500 that my wife gave me August 28. "Your minister, Patrick Egan, many times offered me good advice. He urged me to make peace with those who opposed me, and retire from Chile. I did not heed his wise advice." I sought him under the influence of the Junta, who were then refugees in the American legation. All through the trouble my closest advisers were opposed to any overtures for peace. Balmaceda's body has been removed to the general cemetery. It was accompanied by members of his family and friends. The account of Balmaceda's suicide has been the one absorbing and exciting topic of conversation in every part of Chile. There is mingled with every one a teasing of roaring at his death and bitter regret that he should have killed himself instead of falling into the clutches of the mob, who would have delighted to read him limb from limb for the long list of cruelties for which they hold him responsible. It is impossible for any one not in that country or not a native to realize the intensity of the hatred entertained toward the ox-President. The national holidays which were to have ended at Santiago Saturday night have been prolonged by the suicide. Feasts, illuminations and other celebrations in honor of the success of the Congressional party are followed by the marching of frenzied crowds through all the streets shouting songs of triumph over the death of their former ruler. It is the general belief that Balmaceda's death will hasten in a great degree the restoration of peace throughout Chile. Now that the chief enemy of the victorious Junta is no more it is likely his followers will be shown mercy, since without Balmaceda to direct them they are very little to be feared. Italy, France, Sweden and Norway followed the lead of the United States in official recognition of the Junta. Germany, it will be remembered, was the second nation to do so. No official recognition has yet come from England. This creates considerable comment. Letters for the following perusal can be called for at the Postoffice Separate D.D.

Mr. Jeffrey is the right man for the place. To what base uses the Pension Bureau has come at last is shown in the meeting of the county medical examiners at Santa Ana the other day, when a gentleman said to be one of the largest bandholders in the county appeared before them and asked to be recommended for a pension. What the devil his ailment was we do not know; but he probably caught it in the war. That is usually the case with these fellows. His claim was disallowed, but all the same a Pension Bureau that warrants the assumption that such illegitimate claims for pensions will be allowed by the examiners or sanctioned by the people, is an infamous fraud upon the country. We must have reform in the Pension Bureau. A meeting will be held at the office of the irrigation district on Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock for the purpose of hearing Engineer Kellogg's report on the work necessary to be done in laying the Santa Ana river at the point of last year's overflow. Mr. Kellogg has prepared a complete report, and after having made a careful reconnoissance of the territory will be able to tell the meeting exactly what should be done. It is hardly necessary to impress upon our readers the importance of this step. We must levee the river, or we shall have the waters of the overflow at our very doors when the winter rains come. Now is the time to do the work; we must not put it off until the time of the overflow, as we did last year. The question interests every one. Let there be a large turnout. The Supreme Court has handed down an opinion in the case of Barrett vs. the South- It is the general belief that Balmaceda's death will hasten in a great degree the restoration of peace throughout Chile. Now that the chief enemy of the victorious Junta is no more it is likely his followers will be shown mercy, since without Balmaceda to direct them they are very little to be feared. Italy, France, Sweden and Norway followed the lead of the United States in official recognition of the Junta. Germany, it will be remembered, was the second nation to do so. No official recognition has yet come from England. This creates considerable comment. It is learned that one of the causes which contributed to the suicidal act of the hunted dictator was the fear expressed by Senor Urriburia, the Argentine minister, that the people would attack the legion if they discovered that Balmaceda was sheltered there. This nervousness of Senor Urriburia seems to have been impressed upon the ex-President's mind in many talks they had while Balmaceda was hidden in the legation. It apparently formed the subject of their animated conversation on last Friday night, after the Argentine minister had returned from the theater. With this idea uppermost in his mind, the unfortunate dictator retired for the night. He must have carefully considered the subject before arriving at the determination to end his misery by self-destruction. They Honuced Heintz. Some time ago C. M. Heintz of the Rural Californian was appointed City Fruit Inspector of Los Angeles, but as he couldn't hold down the job, he was got rid of under the following "remarkable circumstances": Heintz was ignorant of the duties of the office, says the Times; he did not know one kind of bug from another, and was needlessly officious in thrusting himself where there was no occasion for his services; in fact, instead of belong of any service to fruit-growers and orchardists, he was an unmitigated nuisance. Then other charges were made, that Heintz was not confining himself to the duties of the office to which he had been appointed, but was going out of his way to inflict hardships on fruit-growers; that he was making the boast about the city that he was "running the Supervisors" and would do the same with the Councilmen, and, in fact, was making himself generally disagreeable. This sort of thing continued for some time, but finally the patience of the Council was exhausted, and to get rid of the nuisance, abolished the office, thereby putting a stop to the annoyance. One of the elephants on Sella's circus-train got thirsty on route the other day. He was in a car next the engine and smelling the water in the tender tried to get at it. There Grapes for Sale.
