TWO OLD FRIENDS.
A dispatch from San Bernardino brings the information that Judge Otis of the Superior Court of that county one day last week received the following telegram, which "speaks for itself:"
LOS ANGELES, Cal., May 1, 1894.
Judge Superior Court, care Louis Luckel: Mass-meeting 500 citizens, comprising home guard Industrial Army, demand release of Arthur Vinetto and other officers held against their constitutional rights.
THEO PINTHER, Secretary.
The dispatch was read next morning before the court by Judge Otis at the opening of the proceedings wherein Vinette and his associates were to plead. Judge Otis said this was a gross piece of impudence, and that, should Mr. Luckel, who is one of the attorneys for the defendants, be found implicated in the proceedings in which the telegram was the outcome, he would, as an officer of the court, be severely dealt with.
Mr. Luckel was not present at the proceedings, but Messrs. King and Harmon, also attorneys for the defendants, disclaimed all responsibility and deprecated and disapposed of the act as a gross insult to the court. They stated that they would not proceed further with the case with Mr. Luckel.
THE MIDWINTER FAIR.
FIZZLE OF COL. BOONE'S . LION-BEAR CONTEST — MARVELOUS FEATS OF SANDOW AND THE JORDAN FAMILY.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 29, 1894.
Editor Gazette.—Any one out at the Fair on Saturday, the 28th ult., might have seen this sign above the door at Boone's arena: "Grand Wrestling Match between lion Parnell and bear Siskiyou. Tickets, $5, $10, $15, $20." Colonel Boone was quick enough to advertise his "wrestling match," but could not keep his word to the ticket holders. Of course, before the fight every sport in town had a ticket, and as evening came on they went out to the Fair to get the best seat for their money, but only a few had gotten their seats when Police Captain Douglas entered the arena accompanied by a squad of 40 officers and announced to Col. Boone that the match could not take place. A few moments after Captain Baldwin of the Midwinter Fair Guards arrived with orders from M. H. de Young for bidding any such wrestling match to take place within the Fair grounds. Up to the last moment Col. Boone had declared that there was not enough law in the city or Stats to prevent the match, but when confronted by officers, four abreast and ten deep, he thought it best to call it quits.
Police Conlan was on the grounds early and he stayed late, but he had not much to do. He informed the showman that not only would he not allow him to have the wrestling match, but would furthermore prevent him from giving his regular performance; the Judge probably thinking that Boone would turn the beasts loose if he once got into their dens. Later the Colonel applied to Secretary Holbrook for permission to feed the animals, but that gentleman had been down stairs and ascertained that all that was necessary was to pull a string and the beasts would be together in the arena, so when the Colonel told him that the animals were probably hungry he flatly denied of Mr. and Mrs. Jordan and daughters also been at the Prater during the past weeks. Their principal feats are just long distances by aid of trapeze in one other's hands, and playing ball with child. The older Jordans got at pity feet above the stage and this apart and toss the child to each other catching her by her hands the other beels, the child revolving and flying through space with the speed of lightning, that gets dizzy looking at them. At last, of a grand finale, they all dive into net below and retire.

SUGAR CAMPAIGN AT CHI
The best season and sugar campaigned 1893 in Chino, as we learn from our lent exchange the Champion, were the successful yet experienced since theirduction of sugar into America. The was fairly propitious, and the experience two years' work with the crop and factory made possible the most economical and profitable handling of the crop.
There were planted on the-Chino between 3,000 and 4,000 acres, which remarkably good returns. While the content was not quite up to that previous year, yet it was higher than recorded in Europe or some parts country, and the yield per acre was satisfactory. The harvest from these fields amounted to 44,648 tons; for were paid the farmers,$173,812 nearly $4 per ton. The delivery amount for Chino beets by months follows:

The dispatch was read next morning before the court by Judge Otis at the opening of the proceedings wherein Vinette and his associates were to plead. Judge Otis said this was a gross piece of impudence, and that, should Mr. Luckel, who is one of the attorneys for the defendants, be found implicated in the proceedings in which the telegram was the outcome, he would, as an officer of the court, be severely dealt with.
Mr. Luckel was not present at the proceedings, but Messas, King and Harmon, also attorneys for the defendants, disclaimed all responsibility and deprecated and disapposed of the act as a grease insult to the court. They stated that they would not proceed further with the case with Mr. Luckel.
Vinette and associates decided to retain King and Harmon, and let Luckel go. Cole, the most anarchistic of the defendants, was the only one dissenting.
The affair caused a great sensation. Judge Otis found it difficult to conceal his anger.
The Los Angeles papers report that if any meeting of the unemployed was held in that city for the purpose of taking action to influence the San Bernardino Court, it was not known outside of the limited number who attended.
A warrant was issued for Pinther's arrest, for sending a threatening letter to the Court, and he was taken into custody. He was released later, on account of an error in the warrant, and before another could be issued, Pinther skipped out, and at latest accounts had not been found. Inquiry at his residence developed the fact that he had not been home for some days, and his young son told the officers he did not know where his father was.
SHE WANTED TIME.
"Will you be my wife?"
That was the conundrum he had asked her.
It is a conundrum which has been asked many times, and many men have had to give it up.
"I must have time to reply," she said.
"How much time will you require?"
"Really, I don't know. There are seven ahead of you, not yet disposed of; but I hope to clear up all unfinished business before the summer hotels open. Suppose you come round about the middle of June."
"Sideh,” he hissed between his set of teeth, "that is what comes of a girl being worth a million in her own right," and the girl looked carelessly at a card the butter presented on a silver siver and told him to show the gentleman up.
Another Paper At Pomona.
Pomona Corr. Los Angeles Times.
The Pomona people are very patient. Five times in four years new alleged newspapers have been foiled upon this peaceful, prosperous community, and after getting in debt to half the merchants, and squeezing money from every man who had the least spark of political ambition, each one of the five "newspapers" has failed. Three of the so-called editors have fled the country. Now another newspaper outlift, consisting of a bushel of old battered body type from cases that have done service in seven States in twenty-five years, and a disjointed Washington hand-press that has been carted about California from country town to country town as fast as the man in charge blinked an unspecting constituentity, has been brought to Pomona on a lumber wagon from Redondo, and we are to have one more "journal of intelligence" in a field that has been crowded with newspapers for several years. The question arises, how long will this thing be borne in patience?
We have the exclusive agency of Orange county for the Fowler and Elmore bicycles, the two leading wheels of the country. The police Judge Conlan was on the grounds early and he stayed late, but he had not much to do. He informed the showman that no only would he not allow him to have the wrestling match, but would furthermore prevent him from giving his regular performance; the Judge probably thinking that Boone would turn the beats loose if he once got into their dens. Later the Colonel applied to Secretary Holbrook for permission to feed the animals, but that gentleman had been down stairs and ascertained that all that was necessary was to pull a string and the beasts would be together in the arena, so when the Colonel told him that the animals were probably hungry he flatly denied him permission to enter the building at all.
According to the programme the show should have commenced at 8:30, but it did not commence at all. Besides officers had warrants signed by Superior Judge Wallace, issued for the arrest of Boone, McGavrie and Hallian for the violation of said statute, which not only forbids fights of dumb animals but forbids training them or advertising the contest. Captain Douglas arrested the men but Judge Conlan released them on bonds or bail of $500 each. Of course, none but pressmen were allowed to go into the areas, and when they came out they were besieged by an eager crowd and asked a thousand questions at once such as, "Was there a fight?" "Which got licked!" "Is the fight over?" etc. At 11:30, when the officers were sure there would be no more fight, they allow Boone to enter and feed the beasts. Although Secretary Holbrook had faith, Capt. Douglas had none, and left ten officers in charge of the arena to look after the Colonel.
Sunday morning there was not a soul in town who would acknowledge that he had held a ticket to the wrestling match. Boone now says he will have a tight if he has to take a bargain and go out into the bay.
The Electrical Theater, besides occupying one of the most picturesque buildings of the Fair grounds, is without doubt one of the most beautiful sideways here, and is well calculated to send the spectators into ecatics. It is built much like a small theater in reference to the seats and gallery. The stage is fully occupied by the scene which consists of two pretty little Swiss villages on either side of a grand catacard with high mountains looming up behind them. On these mountains are perched all sorts of mountain animals and birds, such as gailles, antelopees, bears, vultures, hawks, etc., and they look perfectly at home as well as wonderfully natural. Between two mountains and over the catacard is a suspension bridge, over which a miniature train of cars passes at specified times. The sky is a large canvas painted blue, which merges into gold, and finally red as it approaches the brison and zenith. The show begins by a man announcing in a very strong French or German accent that "We will now pass through von whole day zo zenink." Sunrise in the mountains is the first departure from absolute darkness, and the scene gets a little bit lighter until one can see outlines of some of the objects on the stage. Early dawn next. The scene has become light enough to plaintly distinguish the villages and the bridge and the mountains. Morning is next announced and the scene becomes bright and seemingly animated; a train passes over the bridge and even the catacard seems to make more noise. Toward noon is the next announcement. This is simply bright day; but next comes thunderstorm. The scene gets darker and darker until finally it is enveloped in impenetrable' and inky blackness. Then thunder commences to roll and the lightning to flash and glare till it seems that all the furies in Hades have combined their power to cause a terrific uproar and commotion. The darkness gradually clears away and one more the villages and mountains loom deep, he thought it beat to call it quits.

Fredericks, the convicted murderer of Banker Herrick, made a desperate attempt to break jail in San Francisco early last Friday morning. Half an hour after midnight he picked the lock of his cell, placed a dummy on his bed to deceive the night patrol and hid in the room adjoining. A quarter after 2 o'clock, when all was quiet, the jailer in charge while passing along the corridor, was suddenly attacked from the rear by Fredericks, who struck him over the head with a piece of iron that was wrapped in a blanket, fell him to the ground. He secured the bunch of keys from the jailer, rushed to the outer door and attempted to open it. The jailer having recovered from the blow, clinched with Fredericks and a desperate struggle ensued. Sergeant Shields, who was in the adjoining room, hearing the commotion, rushed to the jailer's assistance. Shields, fearing that the criminal might overpower them both, fired on Fredericks with his revolver. Fredericks immediately weakened and was overpowered, handcuffed and chained.

The question arises, how long will this thing be borne in patience?
Early dawn next. The scene has become light enough to plainly distinguish the villages and the bridge and the mountains. Morning is next announced and the scene becomes bright and seemingly animated; a train passes over the bridge and even the cataract seems to make more noise. Toward noon is the next announcement. This is simply bright day; but next comes the thunderstorm. The scene gets darker and darker until finally it is enveloped in impenetrable and inky blackness. Then the thunder commences to roll and the flickering to flash and glare till it seems that all the furies in Hades have combined their power to cause a terrific uproar and commotion. The darkness gradually clears away and one more the villages and mountains loom up in pure serenity. Sunset and evening now come on, and the stars gradually make their appearance. As Longfellow expresses it: "Siently, one by one, in the infinite incidences of heaven." Blossom the lovely stars, the forget-me-nots of the angels."
Then the lights in the village light up and the curtain goes down.
In a previous communication I remarked that if show bills went for anything Sawdow must be a remarkably strong man. He has been at the Vienna Prater for the past four weeks and the public has had plenty of time to see and study him. Besides being a strong man he is, physically, absolutely perfect in every detail known to medical science. In ordinary street dress he looks like any other mortal except that the sleeves of his coat are very large and baggy, and he is strikingly handsome. His muscles protrude from his body in long parceler ridges as hard as steel. The famous chequer bord pattern of muscles on his stomach and chest, which modern scientists dany exists except in Sawdow, are plainly visible at a distance of 300 feet from the stage. His arms are nineteen inches around, or about a few inches less than an ordinary man's thigh. The most remarkable though, is the chest expansion. In the Olympian, Delphian and Pan-Athenian games, as well as in the Roman Gladiatorial contest and other celebrated athletic events, the greatest chest expansion ever known was that of Philipides, the Athenian runner, who had eight inches, but this is put in the shade by Sandow, whose chest expands to the enormous extent of fourteen inches, or six inches more than the celebrated other fellow. All the rest of his body is perfectly symmetrical. The best of Sawdow's feats are as follows: His eyes are blindfolded and his feet bound, and with two fifty-six pound dumb bells he turns a backward somersault. Next he raises a three-hundred pound dumb-bell at arms length above his head as easily as an ordinary person would raise 20 pounds. Next what he calls the Roman Column. He has straps about his knees or just below. He hangs suspended, with feet braced against the column and chains attached to the straps with his head downward. First he picks up a 55-pound dumb bell and raises himself slowly till his body is horizontal and parallel with the stage. Then he picks up a two hundred pound dumb-bell and raises himself as before, secures the bell to himself, goes down again, picks up 112 pounds more and with two heavy men hanging to him, again poises himself horizontally with the stage. The horses and see saw and other paraphernalia weigh about 3,000 pounds.
As we approach the close of the season, we deem it proper to make a report of the progress made, with such as we are able to submit.
The shipments made to this date gate 1,217 cars. This fruit has been distributed over the United States having been made to 285 different firms.
No large credit has been given any one time. The financial standing purchaser has been carefully invested before shipment, and thus far but only has been sustained, and that one will probably exceed $250.
Considering the volume of business acted, and the wide-spread finance pressure, we think this is a good idea If we are as fortunate in our future as we have been in the past, nearly all two per cent guarantee fund, which amounts to over $5,000, will of course turned to over the associations, as will also siderable portion of the five per cent rate by exchange to cover expenses pleased to report that the total expense of exchange up to date including age, office furniture, expenses of travel men, telegrams and all office and expenses of every kind, will not exceed average of eight cents per box, and we reason to believe it will not vary many from this figure for the season.
This with the commissions of ten heretofore paid the middlemen,and into account the saving in packing out we think it will be found that they marketing under our exchange system scarceely exceed one-third of that unold system.

amounted to 44,644 tons, for which paid the farmers, $173,812.94, or $4 per ton. The delivery and pay for Cuino beets by months were as:
beets beats were grown and delivered by 170 farmers, who depend upon the industry, and besides whom there was a very amount of labor engaged upon the crop. Gird alone paid for labor during the eating months $13,885.80.
amount expended for labor through season by Gird and the sugar factory dated to 100,000, the factory having a bill of $10,000 per month during the sign.
Besides this labor account, the farmers growing beets upon their own or land, expanded large sums for labor.
We were delivered to the factory Anaheim 7,307 tons of beets, for which paid $35,000.
The beets worked at the day, therefore, amounted to 51,986 tons, which were paid out $228,812.
Add to 100,000 paid for labor, and we have $300,000 expended by the industry exclusive of freights, fuels, materials, metals, etc., a magnificent showing in manufacturing campaign in the sugar industry commenced last year on July 31, and that time until November 4, when the sugar was shipped, steam was never shut. Brinding beets was kept up constantly and night, during the whole campaign, on Sundays, twelve hours were to clean up and repair.
It is a reliable fact, that with all this powerful energy constantly at work, and at high speed, but one small break occurred during the campaign, delaying work but a few days.
The factory reached a capacity of tons of beets per day, with a daily output nearly 225,000 pounds of raw sugar. The entire sugar output for the season ended to 15,033,357 pounds—7,531 tons, would make 753 standard carloads, a train about five miles in length. This was all shipped in strawboard barrels, were manufactured by the company on round. For this purpose 200 tons of board were used as well as nearly half inch feet of California redwood lumber, and trucks and annealed wire by the ten-fuel supply of the factory was crudum from the oil wells of Ventura County. About 2,100,000 gallons of this oil used last season, in the finest battery batteries on the Pacific coast. During theending November 1, 1893, there were 1787 pounds—or over 15,158 tons—of fuel supplied by the factory was crudum from the oil wells of Ventura County.

The very flattering success that has helped the work of the exchange in disclosing the season's orange crop:
we approach the close of the shipping line, we deem it proper to make a formal progress made, with such data able to submit.
shipments made to this date aggregate 217 cars. This fruit has been widely counted over the United States, sales been made to 285 different firms.
Large credit has been given any firm at once. The financial standing of each shipment, and thus far but one loss been sustained, and that one will notibly exceed $250.
Considering the volume of business transacted and the wide-spread financial decline, we think this is a good showing as fortunate in our future credits.
In the shape of spirits occupy and will occupy a permanent place in the pharmacopia, and that beer in moderate quantities is a lea producer and an antidote to dyspepsia, to say nothing of its tonic qualities. Suppose I take a local illustration. A friend of mine some months ago went on business to a neighboring village where prohibition reign supreme. He got wet through on his way, finished his business and came home. In four days he died of pneumonia. I appeal to all the doctors in Orange county if a drink of whisky in the village referred to would not have braced his system and enabled him to throw off for the time being the effects of the chill! It would have induced a warmth and promoted amincreased circulation which would in all probability have been the means of saving his life. My friends will tell me that the warmth and increased circulation would have been "artificial," but what's in a name, if my friend's life had been saved? Had he gone to Anaheim or Santa Ana, he knew enough from past experience to resort to the "artificial" heat and the antidote to his chill would have been at his hand. The little village is still a prohibition center, but in ray opinion it has my friend's death to answer for. At the same time had he "known the ropes" he could have got the antidote there too, but he was far too honest to resort to sub rosa medication—and so he died.
I am opposed to drunkenness; tooth and nail, but if my neighbor cannot or will not control his abnormal appetite, what has this do with me, to whom a stimulant in moderation is a necessity? By the advice of one of the best doctors in New York I have taken whiskey and cod liver oil daily and a glass of beer at dinner for years. And it come to this, that a group of unscintile narrow-minded cranks can come between me and the remedy to which humanly speaking I owe my life! What is one man meat is another man's poison, and each man should learn from personal experience what regime is best suited to his health and temperament. If a certain number of people insist on cutting their throat, in that any reason why I should never handle a razor Apply this principle all around you will narrow human life and human ambition to the circumference of a yard. I must not do such and such a thing because such and such a one failed in the attempt.
I must not trespass further on your space, and will conclude by saying that in actions themselves comparatively harmless, I am not "my brother's keeper." Every man should be a law unto himself. And if, as Shakespeare says,"At thirty he suspects himself a fool, he should know it at forty and reform his plan."
Let us by all means have high license if the majority of intelligent voters demand it; but it is unfair on the face of it that a section of the community who have neither necessity nor inclination for an occasional stimulant should be allowed to compel me to import my legitimate medicine in the shape of wise and beer from a distant State. I am yours, etc.,

The Southern Pacific Company astonished San Luis Obisponites Thursday by some phenomenal track-laying, no less than 10,000 feet of completed track being laid within ten hours, leaving only three-quarters of a mile to build to reach the Hotel Ramona. This rush was necessary to enable the company to carry out their programme to land their trains at San Luis Obispon on May 6th. The first train to arrive in that city was the special excursion train leaving San Francisco at 7 A.M. Friday, arriving at San Luis Obispon at 4 P.M., in time for the big barbecue, which signalized the beginning of the celebration of the completion of the road. Great preparations were made for the occasion, and several thousand persons were entertained with that lavish hospitality for which the Southern Pacific is famous. It was an old-time fiesta and marked a notable event in the history of that section of the state.

we approach the close of the shipping line, we deem it proper to make a formal report of the progress made, with such data as are able to submit.
shipments made to this date aggregate 217 cars. This fruit has been widely reported over the United States, sales have been made to 285 different firms.
large credit has been given any firm at one time. The financial standing of each seller has been carefully investigated shipment, and thus far but one loss has been sustained, and that one will not be exceeded $250.
considering the volume of business transactions, and the wide-spread financial decline, we think this is a good showing. Areas as fortunate in our future credits have been in the past, nearly all of the per cent guarantee fund, which now puts us over $5,000, will of course be relied on the associations, as will also a considerable portion of the five per cent retained in exchange to cover expenses. We are told to report that the total expense of exchange up to date, including broker-office furniture, expenses of traveling telegrams and all office and general expenses of every kind, will not exceed an age of eight cents per box, and we have no belief it will not vary materially in this figure for the season. Comparing with the commissions of ten per cent before paid the middlemen, and taking account the saving in packing charges, it will be found that the cost of trading under our exchange system will only exceed one-third of that under the system.
regret prices have ruled rather than being to hard times, the demoralization of the orange business in former but more directly caused by the interruption of fruit handled by parties outside exchange, which has been constantly below exchange prices. We have compelled to allow some rebates on recars. Up to this date, over two hundred thirty-five thousand dollars ($235) have been paid over to the various assuctions.
are out and unpaid for about 400 and probably 200 cars yet to go forward. We have most considerable opposition to serious difficulties to contend with, of which are very well known to the users; but withal, we regard the results first year's work under the exchange as very gratifying.
our address of May 13, 1893, we said: "We must stop their cars to the blunders of shrewd manipulators." We note sincere gratification that, with but two exceptions, the growers have turned a bear to speculators and stood loyally by compact with the exchange. We have our fight and demonstrated that the organs of Southern California are able market their own goods.
at the small percentage of fruit outside exchange has been quoted under exchange prices, but proves that the test can only be obtained when the entire is under the control of the exchange.owers should not be deceived by the imitate promise of any jobber that he will so many cars next year.

Persons who sympathize with the allied will rejoice with D E. Carr of 1235 Harrison street, Kansas City. He is an old sufferer from inflammatory rheumatism, but has not heretofore been troubled in that climate. Last winter he went up into Wisconsin, and in consequence has had another attack. "It came upon me again very acute and severe," he said. "My joints swelled and became inflamed; sore to touch or almost to look at. Upon the urgent request of my mother-in-law I tried Chamberlain's Pain Balm to reduce the swelling and case the pain, and to my agreeable surprise, it did both. I have used three fifty-cent bottles and believe it to be the finest thing for rheumatism, pain and swellings extant." For sale by J. Reed.

The William N. Whitely Reaper and Mower works at Municc, Ind., were destroyed by fire Sunday morning. The less on the buildings, which were of wood and galvanized iron, is not great, but the destruction of 2,000 machines ready for shipment and 1,500 almost completed, the patterns of which were an accumulation that has cost thousands of dollars, and the costly new machinery that filled the factory, brings the loss up to $245,000 without a cent of insurance. Whitely moved his factory to Muncie from Springfield, O., and has since furnished employment to from 300 to 500 men, a majority of whom came with him from Springfield. Whitely arrived from Chicago Sunday evening while the fire was in progress. He said that the factory would probably be built again on a much larger scale.
Postmaster General Bissell has formulated a policy of barring saloon-keepers and bartenders from appointment as postmasters. In accordance with this plan, where there are several candidates, the fact that many of them have business dealings with saloons will be given weight, and the other candidates will be given the preference in making appointments. The Postmaster-General says: "It is not a temperance question, or a moral question—it is a business question particularly, and the Postoffice Department is a business institution. From my observation and experience I am convinced that any man directly or indirectly interested in the liquor business is in a measure unfitted by his occupation, and that his interest in that business necessarily interferes with a full discharge of such official duties in any branch of the postal service."
On May 20, 1873, the marriage of Nelson Northenthall and Lottie Hightower was celebrated at Lebanon, Ind. He left home unceremonially and without apparent cause one night in October, 1874, and despite the persistent efforts of his wife to locate him no tidings ever came. She married Charles Blaine in 1875. They have since resided on their farm just weed of Lebanon. After so strangely leaving his wife Northoutwandered into California and married five children being born to him. His wife No. 2 died recently and he returned to his old home and hunted up his wife and pleaded for her to return to him. She refused, and summoning her new husband from the field, Northenthall was requested to leave. He did so, threatening to test his claim upon her in the courts.
There are now pending in San Bernardino counties about 40 cases, civil and criminal against sheep men for trying to evade the license of $100 for each 1,000 sheep in the county. These cases are being vigorously resisted by the sheep men who claim that the ordinance is unconstitutional and that the sheep men should be compelled to pay license. It is said the most of them came into the county about the first of March for the purpose of evading taxes in other counties, and that from 40,000 to 100,000 sheep are driven over the public highways in the spring months cutting up roads and rendering them unit for travel.
