"Speaking about bears," said Squire Garvin, as he seated himself in a comfortable chair at the police station and addressed a reporter, "speaking about bears, I think I had an adventure with one not long ago that beats the record. "I was hunting around Shell lake over in Arkansas, one morning I was an dog-out and had my gun and a little dog. The bear I have reference to made its appearance on the shore, and I shot him. When I had landed, I heard a little noise over in the brush, and, thinking there might be another bear over there, I determined to start in to investigate. The bear I had shot lay lit- indicating that they were captured about the year 1812 from the armies of Spain by the Mexican patriots in their final successive struggle, after eleven years of bitter and bloody warfare for national independence and emancipation from foreign domination. As such these cannon have a great historic value for Mexico, and are as dear to over Mexican as are the cannon captured from the British forces in our War for Independence at Stillwater and Yorktown to the American people. They are, moreover, memorable of the example and policy of the United States, under the influence of which a neighbor country and people made enormous sacrifices to establish a republican form of Government, and so co-operated to affirm the "Monroe Doctrine," that none of the Powers of the Old World shall interfere with those of the new. It was a discreditable thing, therefore, in the first instance, to remove these cannon from Mexico after the termination of the war with that country, and it is discreditable to have so long delayed in making reparation. Citrus Fruit Culture. A bulletin just issued by the Central Bureau on the subject of fruit and nut makes an excellent showing for California juasmuch as it explains that this is the only State which is making real progress in the lime of citrus fruit culture. This bulletin shows that California has 26,520 acres of bearing trees and plants, which is just about twice the average of eighteen months ago while there has been very little planting of orange trees in Florida since 1886, the year of the severe frost. The bulletin estimates that there will be an output of at least 10,000,000 boxes of oranges a year from California before the close of the present century. But oranges are not the only product that the bulletin refers. It says that there is every reason to believe that within a few years the fire, olives, lemons and nuts of California will rival in value her drous crops of oranges. The value of the orange crop is put down at $2,271,616, and if we can do as well with the other products... & HANKEY, BEDS MEN ERY A FULL LINE OF... Duds. Choice Utah Alfalfa. Also Seed Corn.

ANGELES STREET, ANAHEIM, CAL Speaking About Beens "Speaking about bears," said Squirrel Garvin, as he seated himself in a comfortable chair at the police station and addressed a reporter, "speaking about bears, I think I had an adventure with one not long ago that beats the record. "I was hunting around Shell lake over in Arkansas, one morning. I was an dug-out and had my gun and a little dog. The bear I have reference to made its appearance on the shore, and I shot him. When I had landed, I heard a little noise over in the brush, and thinking there might be another bear over there, I determined to start in to investigate. The bear I had shot lay litless, to all appearances, but I had my suspicions about him, knowing the treacherous habits of the varmint, and before I went away I tied the chain of the boat around his neck and left the little dog to watch him. "I had not gone very far in the brush before I heard the dog barking, and hurrying back, what was my surprise to see the bear climbing a tree and pulling the boat up after him, with the dog sitting in the stern barking for dear life. The sight almost paralyzed me for a moment, but I soon recovered and fired. The bear sprang from the tree, jerking the boat containing the dog after him, and he pulled out for the other side. I had to stop to reload, and by the time I was ready to shoot again the animal was out of range. I ran around to the other side of the lake, expecting to catch him when he landed, but he was too sharp for me. He only stopped long enough to let the dog out of the boat, when he pulled out again before I got in range, and when he got in the middle of the lake he climbed into the boat himself and sat on his launches looking at me. I never recovered bear nor boat, but there are stories afloat among the inhabitants of the country in that neighborhood, of a bear being seen frequently gliding gracefully up and down the lake in a dug-out." Taken for a Crank. A semi-fondish delight often seems to possess people of strong nerves in sneezing at those with weak ones. The irritability of the nervous hypochondriac is ridiculed as natural ill temper. The very genuine and distressing symptoms from which he suffers are made light of. "He" or "she is a crank" is the cheerful sort o sympathy with which the nervous unrest quits from the unfeeling and the thoughtless. At the same time no complaint is more defined and real, none has a more easily explainable origin when it is chronic. Imperfect question and assimilation are always accompanied by nervous debility and anxiety. Build up the powers of assimilation and digestion with Hostetler's Stomach Bitters, and nervous symptoms, sick headaches and a generally feeble condition of the system are remediated. Lemurther that fearful rays are produced by la gripe among weakly, nervous people. Hostetler's Stomach Bitters cures it, and prevents malaria, rheumatism and kidney complaint. A Colorado court recently decided that water percolating beneath the soil, in no well-defined channel, belongs to the owner of the soil, and that he is privileged to use it as he may deem best. The action was brought because the pumping of water from a well 150 feet distant from a certain creek was found to diminish the flow in the creek, and so impaired the supply of an irrigating ditch taking water from the creek below the point where the well was bored. The decision in this case is of interest to California and other States where irrigation is practiced. Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria. But oranges are not the only product that which the bulletin refers. It says that there is every reason to believe that within a few years the fire, olives, lemons and nut of California will rival in value her wontrous crops of oranges. The value of the orange crop is put down at $2,271,616, and if we can do as well with the other product named, the State is to be congratulated. Lemons are a profitable crop in California; they can be produced equal to the Sicily lemon. But for the year ending June 30, 1891, the imports of foreign lemons were valued at $2345,979. California will soon have as much success with lemons as she had with raisins, prunes, and oranges in securing the American market and keeping out the foreign article. This will add materially to our wealth and prosperity. The State has done, and is doing well in citrus fruit culture, but she can do better. No one who has a fine citrus orchard need be at all alarmed about over production; for he can always find a ready market for good fruit. Peculiarities of Authors. Emile Zola's habits are extremely regular. He takes a walk every morning, usually leaving the house, whether at Medan or Paris, about 9 o'clock. He laughs at mid-day, and writes from 1 o'clock till 6, receiving no visitors and transacting no business in the afternoon. He has a particular liking for large and massive pieces of furniture, as his writing table and library chairs are of colossal proportions, as is also his inkstand which is of bronze and represents a lion. De Musset always wrote at night, in room brilliantly lighted up with lamps and candles. Sardon receives callers before lunchtime, being absorbed in writing. He writes a very minute hand, corrects, changes, and alters his work continually, and is tar trout being satisfied with what he has done, ever when it finally leaves his hands. He is an incompatible stage, director for his own plays, and often makes on the margin of his manuscript, rough sketches of the scenery and attitudes of the personages that he considers necessary for certain important situations. George Sands always wrote at night, and when the fever of composition was upon he she wont to work all night. There is a story told of her finishing a story at 9 o'clock in the morning, and immediately taking up a fresh quire of paper and writing the first chaparral of a new one before she tired to rest. Like Victor Hugo, Francois Coppee has need of motion when composing his poetry and works out his ideas while taking louls walks through the streets of Paris. Guy de Maupassant planned out his novels and stories while on his yacht, and once returned to land he put his mature idea upon paper with great rapidity. Henri Rochefort is an extremely excitable writer. He begins his work always in very correct costume. Then, as he proceeds, he will first tear off his coat, next his waistcoat, and then his collar and cravat. He is fortunate if he does not ruin his shirt from by tearing it open, regardless of button holes and studs. and Provisions. Mary, Cigars Tobacco. Highest Price Paid for Produce. Delivered Free!

The past few months several Long Island farmers have been seriously considering the advisability of operating the sugar-beet industry. Henry T. Oxnard, who has operated quite extensively with the sugar-beet in Nebraska and Southern California, will shortly erect a plant on the island and give the industry a thorough test. Several years ago Secretary Rusk analyzed over 1,000 specimens of the sugar-beet and awarded Long Island the credit of growing the best beets. They gave an output of 800 pounds of sugar to every ton of beets. Bucklen's Arnica Salve.

The joint resolution favorably reported by Mr. Shorman from the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, and which subsequently passed the Senate without opposition, February 17th, requesting the President to return to the Republic of Mexico twenty-one battle-flags, now in the museum of the United States Military Academy, which were captured by the Army of the United States during the late war with Mexico, seems to meet with general public approval. Scattered over the grounds at West Point are a considerable number of cannon—not ordinary cannon, but large pieces of the finest bronze and workmanship, bearing first, the royal arms and motto of Spain, with date and place of casting; and second, inscriptions Like Victor Hugo, Francois Coppee has need of motion when composing his poetry and works out his ideas while taking long walks through the streets of Paris. Guy de Maupain planned out his novels and stories while on his yacht, and once returned to land he put his matured ideas upon paper with great rapidity.

A friend in need is a friend indeed, and not less than one million people have found just such a friend in Dr. King's New Disease for Consumption, Coughs, and Cold If you have never used this Great Courage Medicine, one trial will convince you that it has wonderful curative powers in all diseases of Throat, Chest and lungs. Each bottle of guarantee to do all that is claimed or money will be refunded. Trial bottles free at W. M. Higgins' Drug store. Large bottles 5 cents and $1. Publish the Pension Lists. The pension lists ought to be published as Congressman Fitch has proposed. About $133,000,000 of the public money was paid out by the pension bureau last year. The country does not grudge a penny of the money to the lowest old soldiers who receive it. On the contrary it would rejoice to pay them more abundantly; that their lives might be made easy and comfortable and that self-sacrificing patriotism might be exalted in the minds of men. But the pension list has outgrown reasonable bounds. It is not right that so great a sum should be disbursed by any bureau without an account. The people have a right to know what is done with their money. It is currently believed, and there is ground for the conviction, that a large part of this money goes fraudulently to men not entitled to it—the man who were not soldiers, to men whose claims have been fraudulently conceived and pressed to allowance by shystering pensions agents. Every dollar so billed from the treasury is a dollar taken from the deserving old soldier, whose pensions are thus kept smaller than they might be. The country which the soldiers served, is robbed by my masquerading in the character of veterans. Mr. Fitch proposes to have the names of its pensioners published, with their regiments and companies, and to place the lists in the libraries of Grand Army Posts and Veterans' Associations, so that the soldiers may be able to detect frauds, and they were captured about the armies of Spain by the pots in their final successful eleven years of bitter and foreign domination. As they have a great historical price, and are as dear to every cannon captured from the War for Independence and Yorktown to the Ameri- tle and policy of the United States, the influence of which a neigh- bour and people made enormous establish a republican form of so co-operated to affirm the trine" that none of the Pow- World shall interfere with new. It was a discreditable in the first instance, to re-union from Mexico after the war with that country, aditable to have so long delayed operation. Fruit Culture. Just issued by the Census subject of fruit and nuts, bulkout showing for California, explains that this is the only making real progress in the fruit culture. This bulletin liaison has 26,520 acres of oranges, which is just about age of eighteen months ago, been very little planting of Florida since 1886, the year roast. The bulletin estimates be an output of at least sixes of oranges a year from are the close of the present drive out of their honorable company all rascals who may have secured by false protense the pension money that rightfully belongs to themselves. When the lists are published, they can be purged of all pretenders, and will then constitute a roll of honor in which men will be proud to be included. —New York World. Overland Fruit Hate. At the meeting of the Transcontinental Freight Association at San Diego last week E. L. Goodsell, the well-known New York and London dealer in California fruit, who has been spending the winter in San Diego, made a strong appeal to the association on behalf of the fruit interests of California for lower rates. The basis of his appeal was that the railroads should encourage the fruit industry in California as a matter of police and business, both for the road State. He urged the association to give faster service for the transportation of fruit to the East, and second, a $125 rate to New York, with a pro rata schedule to Chicago. The present rate is $250 on fast trains and $150 on freight trains. He maintained that $125 should be granted on the fast service through to New York. Fast service is essential, as it is absolutely necessary to get the fruit to market in first class condition. With a thirteen-day service the fruit arrives in the Eastern market with the life all gone out of it and in such condition that decay quickly sets in. The cost of marketing fruit has been reduced to about the lowest possible basis, except as to the relief that could be given by the railroads, and the only recourse left the producers is to obtain concessions from the trunk lines. These points have been made again and again at this end of the line, but without producing any marked impression. Perhaps a prominent business man at the other end of the line, who has seen and studied the situation here on the ground, may be able to accomplish something by his appeal. It is perfectly obvious to everybody except the railroad people that the fruit interests of Cali- usually seen in the East. If concerted action is not taken to permanently rid the country of these feathered thieves, the ranchmen will soon find themselves frustless. "Not long ago I noticed an orange tree from which the fruit had not been picked, fairly black with birds. Three men discharged their shot-guns simultaneously, and we bagged forty, not one-fourth of the lot. They do not wait for the fruit to form, but pick the young blossoms and destroy the life of the tree." Hold-Over Senators. It is said that an effort will be made to unseat the hold-over State Senators on the ground that their districts have been, in many cases, changed by the new Apportionment Act, and that some of them represent parts of districts which will elect Senators for the present apportionment. White, in discussing the matter, are such an effort and it will test case. It is manifestly wrong for Senators under the new apportionment to attempt to represent districts they do not reside in and have no interests in. About halt the Senators are hold-over Senators. If they are permitted to hold their places under the new apportionment, many districts will not be represented and some will have double representation. Under the old apportionment San Diego and San Bernardino formed a Senatorial district. Now, under the new apportionment, San Bernardino and Orange counties make a Senatorial district. San Bernardino's Senator holds over. Under the new apportionment it will get another Senator, while San Diego will be left out in the cold, with only the hold-over Senator of San Bernardino to represent it. This is manifestly an injustice to San Diego. It is not right for a man living in one part of the State to represent another part of the State or represent nothing. A test case will be made of the matter in the courts. If Governor Markham falls to issue a proclamation for a Senatorial election under the new apportionment he will be mandamused and the whole matter will be legally re- and plants, which is just about the life all gone out of it and in such condition that decay quickly sets in. The cost of marketing fruit has been reduced to about the lowest possible basis, except as to the relief that could be given by the railroads, and the only recourse left the producers is to obtain concessions from the trunk lines. These points have been made again and again at this end of the line, but without producing any marked impression. Perhaps a prominent business man at the other end of the line, who has seen and studied the situation here on the ground, may be able to accomplish something by his appeal. It is perfectly obvious to everybody except the railroad people that the fruit interests California are being kept back by the unwise policy of the railroads, and it is equally obvious that they are taking money out of their own pockets as well as out of the pocket of the fruit growers by persisting in maintaining such high rates. The San Francisco Post thinks that it would really pay the railroad to haul one year's crop of fresh fruit from California to the East for nothing, for the next year they would have all the business they could possibly do at rates which would pay, and yet would leave a fair margin for the producer. Spice of Life. A conscience that is not troublesome is worthless. Keep your feet out of the way and nobody will step on them. Necessity knows no law, and is generally too poor to hire a lawyer. There is something as good as bravery in getting scared in time. An anarchist is a man who cannot stand other men's prosperity. There are almost as many prodigal fathers as there are prodigal sons. A fanatic is a man who takes a burning interest in something we don't like. Some bad habits must be much disgusted with the fellows they have caught. Wet feet and warm whiskies are good things from the undertaker's point of view. Man may want but little here below, but he makes an awful fuss because he doesn't get it. Some people are all the time afraid they are going to die. Their friends are all the time afraid they won't. There are times in a man's life when the way to earn his friendship and gratitude is to ask him no questions. When you borrow money you borrow trouble, but at the same time you sometimes increase the trouble of the fellow who lends it to you. "You'll let me go to your wedding, will you not?" said one girl to another companion. "Upon my word I can't promise. My folks are in such a rage about my wedding that I am not sure they will let me go to it myself." "Did you ever meet a real pirate?" asked a young lady. "Yes," replied the old naval officer; "once, on the coast of Kent." "How delightful! And did he sail on a long, low, rakish-looking craft painted black?" "No; he kept a scarido hotel." A class in natural history was called up for recitation. The teacher talked to them about the relations of friendship between man and animals, and then asked a girl: "Do animals really possess the sentiment of affection?" "Yes, almost always," answered the little girl. "And now," said the teacher, turning to a little boy, "tell me what animal has the greatest natural fondness for man." "Woman," said the boy. Great Historical Fires. Now, under the new apportionment, San Bernardino and Orange counties make a Senatorial district. San Bernardino's Senator holds over. Under the new apportionment it will get another Senator, while San Diego will be left out in the cold, with only the hold-over Senator of San Bernardino to represent it. This is manifestly an injustice to San Diego. It is not right for a man living in one part of the State to represent another part of the State or represent nothing. A test case will be made of the matter in the courts. If Governor Markham falls to issue a proclamation for a Senatorial election under the new apportionment he will be mandamused and the whole matter will be legally reviewed and tested. There is no doubt in my mind but that the result will be an election of a new set of Senators under the new apportionment." Richard Gird on Beet Sugar. Richard Gird is probably the largest individual grower of sugar beets in the world. He has 50,000 acres of land surrounding Chino, and this year will have 4,000 acres of it in sugar beets. He is under contract to raise all the beets that are required for the beet sugar factory at Chino. His contract requires him to raise 5,000 acres of beets next year, and the same acresage the following year. About 1,000 acres of this year's planting are up and ready to thin. This is considered a remarkable showing, for the reason that in the East and Europe planting will not begin for about two weeks. Within three or four weeks 400 men will be at work on the Chino land thinning beets. In conversation Mr. Gird repeated the oft-published statement of what an excellent field California is for the beet sugar industry, and emphasized his remarks by forebice comparisons. Taking the Chino factory as an average-served plant, it will require about 750 factors to produce enough sugar for the consumption of the United States alone. There are only five factors in this country, three of them being in California, namely, at Chino, Alvarado and Watsonville. The other two are in Nebraska, one being at Norfolk and the other at Grand Island. The weather in Nebraska is now so cold that the beets in this State will be half grown when planting begins there.

The Empress of Austria is very fond of going about Vienna incognito, and the other day she sat down at a table in a public garden and asked for a cup of coffee. While she was enjoying it and watching the crowd, she noticed a gentleman near her who was sipping a yellowish drink which she did not recognize. Beckoning to the head waiter the Empress asked him to tell her what the man was drinking. That is absinthe, old lady," said the waiter, who ignorant of her rank slapped the Empress heartily on the back, and added: "If you should drink three or four glasses..."

We desire to say to our citizens that for years we have been selling Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Dr. King's New Life Pills, Bucklen's Armure Salve and Electric Bitters, and have never handled remedies that sell as well, or that have given such universal satisfaction. We do not hesitate to guarantee them every time, and we stand ready to refund the purchase price if satisfactory results do not follow their use. These remedies have won their great popularity purely on their merits. W. M. Higgins, Druggist. Feathered Thieves. R. M. Irwin of San Jose desires to unite ranchmen all over the State in a systematic attempt to exterminate the sparrow and the meadow lark, both of which he declares have become an intolerable nuisance. Each multiplies rapidly," he said," and often occasion serious losses by the damage they do to fruit. It is particularly hard to get rid of the meadow lark, which has as many lives as a cat. When shot they sometimes fly yards before dropping, and they always die hard. The California bird is large, and its plumage duller than that of the variety. An Empress in Disguise. The Empress of Austria is very fond of going about Vienna incognito, and the other day she sat down at a table in a public garden and asked for a cup of coffee. While she was enjoying it and watching the crowd, she noticed a gentleman near her who was supping a yellow drink which she did not recognize. Beckoning to the head waiter the Empress asked him to tell her what the man was drinking. That is absinthe, old lady," said the waiter, who ignorant of her rank slapped the Empress heartily on the back, and added: "If you should drink three or four glasses of that stuff every day, you would get so fat that you would have to have all your dresses made over." The Empress said nothing, but wont away reflecting on the disadvantages of masquerading as an ordinary citizen. Southern Pacific Route. SOUTHERN PACIFIC RAILWAY TIME TABLE.
