The Weekly Gazette. ISSUE EVERY THURSDAY. Henry Kuchel, Charles Kuchel, EDITORS AND PROPRIETORS. THURSDAY...JULY 18, 1890 THE ENORMOUS PROFITS OF THE FREIGHT REBATES. In conversation the other day with Mr. Cargill, than whom there is no orange grower in Southern California more earnest in his advocacy of the exebange system of marketing oranges, and who is well qualified to speak of matters relating to the various associations of fruit growers, he informed us that, so far from the robates on orange shipments to come to Orange county aggregating $1,200, as was at first expected—and which item by the way has we see been extensively copied from our columns without credit—the total amount to come to the county, so satisfactory have the rebates on the refrigerator car service become, will amount to at least double the figures at first expected, or $2,500 for the season. These rebates will not net the growers 5 cents a box on all the oranges shipped out of Southern California since March 2d; enough to pay the amount collected for the expenses of the exchange, and leave quite a satisfactory balance to their credit. The total amount of these rebates coming to the growers of Southern California will aggregate upwards of $30,000, of which between 8 and 9 per cent comes to this county. These rebates amount to $15 per car, and have accumulated on shipments only after March 2d, previous to which time they were absorbed by others than those to whom they legitimately belonged. Had the Exchange secured the rebates on the 3,500 cars shipped by them during the season, the return to the growers would have amounted to $52,500, and as at the end of the season it transpires that the Exchange has handled only about 50 per cent of the crop, it will be seen that the total rebates amount to $105,-000 for the season. As these figures come to us gradually, the enormous profits of the commission men appear in all the light of their overtowering magnitude. This system of rebates has been snatched from the commission men in the teeth of their combined opposition, aided in no little part in the beginning by others in the enjoyment of these profits with them. Earl has controlled a great number of refrigerator cars, and upon some his profits have aggregated $125 per car. For the icing of the cars the growers pay $90, and the commission men pocket $50 of this, the icing burdons of transportation charges, or by lack of co-operation shall they be permitted to accrue to these commission people who are not in the business for their health? If half of the growers, combined into the Southern California Fruit Exebange, have been powerful enough to break the monopoly of this refrigerated fruit carrying trade, and bring the cars of the Overland Fruit Dispatch into California, what would not the combined efforts of the entire body of orange growers be able to accomplish? A greater reduction of freights, more generous rebates, maintenance of prices, and the preservation of the markets. If the past season has been one of lack of profit to the grower, it has likewise been the one of greatest disaster to these men who announce themselves as having been deprived of the profits of a great and growing industry. Will all the growers join the Exchange, and work out their own salvation, or will fifty per cent of them lag behind and aid the brokers, "who are not in the business for their health," to step in and reap the profits of their industry? Either by co-operation will citrus culture be made to yield the handsome profits that exist in this worse than mismanaged industry, or by lack of co-operation will the business go on from bad to worse until the millions of dollars now invested in oranges and lemons will shrink in value to less than twenty-five cents upon the dollar. When it comes to this, the total annihilation of the orchards will not be far off, and the growers will have no one to blame for the destruction of a once promising industry but themselves. Two items from the Pacific Union Printer of San Francisco are of interest as showing the new fields of labor entered into by printers thrown out of employment by the introduction of type-setting machinery, as well as furnishing a troop of interesting personal recollections: "Thomas Hickey, late proof-reADER of the Examiner, is now completing his medical studies at the Toland Medical College. At a recent examination Mr. Hickey was at the head of the class, and before many months have passed his name will be signed 'Thomas Hickey, M.D.'" "Thomas P. Baker, an ex-Secretary of San Francisco Union, who has been studying for the ministry in Theological University at Boston during the past three years, graduated this year, and has been given a charge at Mechanics' Falls, Malne." Mr. Hickey was for years the Examiner's proof-reADER, and long before the paper grew to anything like its present proportions as a newspaper, was regarded not only as one of the hardest working but likewise most cultured proof-reader in the country. His opinions upon the new innovations in spelling, punctuation, and division and compounding of words—and the language is undergoing constant change in these respects—was sought after far and wide; and no new "system" could have been complete without the garded as dangerous until now. The case whereabouts have been unknown one of them was found in a novel wavy tie was picking strawberries about from Mahoning when a special train The train had not gone over an eight mile beyond the child when 200 feet track over which it had just travelled out of sight in twenty-eight feet The regular passenger train was due short time and the child, realize something must be done, ran a stance down the road and began was sunbonnet as the passenger train came sight around the curve. The engine she signal and stopped the train just to avert a bad wreck. A substantiate was made up for the child, who was lyrically frightened when the danger was that she had to be carried home. Future Sugar Factory From the Los Angeles Times. The Times in its report last week opening day of the Chino beet-sugar closed with a paragraph that the Company after this year would have no use for Anaheim beets or any beet outsides of the Chino district. The story was made on the authority of one prominent officials of the Chino Ranch company. As a possible consequence of Times gave a broad hint to that sugar-beet growers that they had been after themselves. The California Grower of San Francisco, in its lack has something to say on the same which is: "Report comes from part of State that the Oxnarda was another sugar factory at or near Chicago another season; also that the Spreckel pany will establish a factory somewherethe beet districts of Los Angeles or county." TICKS FROM THE TELEGRAPHY A. N. Towne, second vice president general manager of the Southern Company, died in San Francisco on November 7. Reports from the northern part of county show that much damage is being there by the invasion of an army on In some fields crops have been strayed, and will hardly pay for good Farmers are making stronuous eradicate them, but thus far have ceeded very well. Grasshoppers were there in large numbers some time have almost entirely disappeared. The failure of the fleet of fishing ships in neighborhood of the Elbe-Crustation last winter to go to the assistant sinking finer has at last been explained men of the fleet saw the Elbe's rocky but as fishing boats use frequently in signaling among them no attention was paid to the signal steamship. It is now suggested that a particular color be used to call at sea, and that their use for other purposes be forbidden. Miss Susan B. Anthony who is Chicago, puts her trust in the new and is also in favor of bloomers." This system of rebates has been snatched from the commission men in the teeth of their combined opposition, aided in no little part in the beginning by others in the enjoyment of these profits with them. Earl has controlled a great number of refrigerator cars, and upon some his profits have aggregated $125 per car. For the icing of the cars the growers pay $90, and the commission men pocket $50 of this, the iceing costing about $40. The railroads pay them a rebate of 14 or 13 cents per mile for every mile the cars are hauled over their reads. This also amounts to quite a considerable sum. The freight charges upon these cars to Missouri river points is about $295 per car. When the exchange officials at first approached the refrigerator companies not in the orange carrying trade, they discovered that, while these outside refrigerator people had been for years exercising an earnest endeavor to get into Southern California, yet, so great was the power of the commission men, they could not get a car here at all. The commission men had an absolute monopoly of the business. But the concerted power of the orange growers was never so well exhibited, as when they were potent enough to break this compact, yet it was not until March 2d, when a large part of the season's crop had already been shipped, that the refrigerator cars of the Overland Fruit Dispatch rolled into Southern California. The advent of these cars sounded the knell of the departing glory of the commission men. But had all the growers been in the exchange the rebates coming to this county would have been, not $2,500, but an amount closer to $8,000. Three causes have conspired to turn the season, which budded out into the promise of being the most prosperous in the history of orange growing, into one of disaster to many and of small profits to the bulk of the orchardists. These have been puffy fruit, foreign importations and the action of those out of the exchanges. The percentage of puffy fruit has not been larger than usual, yet it must be taken into consideration when balancing the books at the end of the season, and the loss from that source has been nominal. The foreign importations affected the markets disastrously for a time, and we have seen how the Eastern brokers, who have told us they were "not in the business for their health," brought these importations about as a slap to the associated growers of the Pacific coast. These importations affected our interests disastrously, but the one greatest cause for the failure of the season has been the refusal of one-half the growers to join forces with the exchange. The Tustin people would not affiliate with us, and the end of the season find themselves with a lawsuit on their hands of $38,000 against Earl. Other large growers have suits pending or in prospect against the various commission men; and the fifty per cent of the growers who have not affiliated with the Exchange have been the means of tendering these Eastern brokers a club with which they belabored the loyal growers over the head unceasingly. When the exxchange price was fixed at $1.50 Mr. Hickey was for years the Examiner's proof-reader, and long before the paper grew to anything like its present proportions as a newspaper, was regarded not only as one of the hardest working but likewise most cultured proof-reader in the country. His opinions upon the new innovations in spelling, punctuation, and division and compounding of words—and the language is undergoing constant change in these respects—was sought after far and wide; and no new "system" could have been complete without the sanction of his pre-eminent philological authority. He was well termed acultured proof-reader. He was possessed of the happy faculty of making existence unbearable to many a stranger in the office who was not conversant with his "style." Many a printer fled to the ills he knew not of rather than face another night of Hickey's proof reading. At one time, a number of years ago, his "reading" came to the verge of precipitating a strike in the composing-room, late Saturday night, or early one Sunday morning, when the big Sunday edition was behind time. A misunderstanding between him and the type setters resulted in every case holder leaving his case at the call of the Chairman, whose voice resounded ominously through the stillness of the composing-room, broken only by the clicking of the types as they went into the stick, in the early hours of the morning: "Gentlemen of the chapel, please step forward." To the good sense of every one concerned be it said, the trouble was soon over, and all hands were soon back at their cases again. And our old friend is to be a physician? We hope his patients may be numberless, and that he may roll up a fat bank account for the proverbial rainy day in his green old age. Mr. Baker was with the writer at the Grand Opera-house; one evening in February, 1887, when the anarchist Hodges hurled a bomb at Patti. She had sung her last selection—the entertainment was a concert program—and had reappeared for the fifth or sixth time before the footlights in response to the enthusiastic plaudits of the audience, when, as she was leaving the stage, retreating rapidly back to its center and bowing low, then turning toward the wings on left, gathering up the folds of her magnificent gown as she all but ran, and sparkling with diamonds in coifure, bodice and tunic—Hodges arose and threw the lighted bomb at her from the gallery. It exploded with a great report, shaking the building, putting out the lights, and resulting in pandemonium absolute. Women fainted, men were transformed into demons. The sound of the stampeding audience, rising from the seats and struggling to get out, can never be forgotten. The escaping gas and dense volumes of smoke precluded the possibility of breath. Suddenly a great flash of flame in the darkness showed that the stage was on fire. Into this babel of confusion and madness, this mass of struggling and terrified humanity trying to escape from impending death, was suddenly precipitated a voice of sweetest melody. The song was the sweetest ever yet heard by mortal ear—"Home, Sweet Home." It was the voice of Patti singing! It acted like a charm upon the infuriated audience. The failure of the fleet of fishing ships in last winter to go to the assistance sinking liner has at last been explained men of the fleet saw the Elbe's rook tinently, but as fishing boats use ropes frequently in signaling among them no attention was paid to the signal steamship. It is now suggested that of a particular color be used to call at sea, and that their use for other be forbidden. Miss Susan B. Anthony who is Chicago puts her trust in the news and is also in favor of bloomers. "Hard to please," she says. "They pay because women's skirts dragged her ground, and now they object because are too high. Miss Anthony is in young men and women making love leges," where," she says,"they do more wisely and discreetly than in room." But most of all, she is still of woman suffrage and women's rights. The opinion of Attorney General Texas against the legality of the Giffitzmans contest creates no surplus for fight headquarters at Dallas. Be claimed that the license law paid for $500 has never been raised. Meaninten Dan Stuart is going ahead preparations for the fight. Bids are for for erection of the great Texas coat and contract will be let to biddder. In a few days the ground will be staked off and building operations.

On July 4th he told he would not call again and she would kill herself. Sunday night her in his buggy to church at Madison about seven miles northeast of Atwood they returned about midnight.

Other large growers have suits pending or in prospect against the various commission men; and the fifty per cent of the growers who have not affiliated with the Exchange have been the means of tendering these Eastern brokers a club with which they belabored the loyal growers over the head unceasingly. When the exchange price was fixed at $1 50 per box, Earl quoted a rate of $1 35, and when the exchange dropped to $1 25, Earl dropped to $1 10. This rivalry resulted in good seedlings being sold at 60 and 70 cents a box in markets which should have brought a dollar and a half. But if the growers have lost in this most animated of all seasons in the fight between the associated orchardists and the brokers, so have the latter lost, and some of them have been driven to the verge of the courts of bankruptcy. The advent of the refrigerator cars of the Overland Fruit Dispatch have reduced the refrigerator charges from $200 to $140 per car on deciduous fruit in the northern counties, and we fully expect to have the reduction go into effect in the orange carrying trade next year. These cars are now in the deciduous fruit carrying trade of the northern part of the State, and it is estimated that if Earl handles this year the same volume of cherries, peaches, grapes and other deciduous fruits from the northern counties as last year, this reduction in refrigerator car charges will result in a loss to him of $70,000. Of course, this loss is not necessarily our gain; but it is pleasant to reflect meanwhile that, as he has hit some of the growers pretty hard, they are not entirely without success in their operations against him. Next year these rebates will be $30 per car, just double what they have been this year, and they must necessarily go on increasing to the maximum figure as the orchardists come gradually into the secrets of handling the entire volume of their business for themselves. If the orange crop next year be equal to that of this season, the rebates of the Overland Fruit Dispatch—which means practically a reduction in freight rates—will amount to upwards of $200,000. Shall the growers enjoy this lessening in the absolute. Women fainted, men were transformed into demons.

The song was the sweetest ever yet heard by mortal ear—"Home, Sweet Home." It was the voice of Patti singing! It acted like a charm upon the infuriated audience. It averted the panic which was even then in swing, and before it takes to tell it, the fire was put out, the gas relit, the audience reseated, windows raised, and confidence restored. Hodges was arrested, and we think sent to prison for four years. His son-in-law was a "distributor" in the Examiner composing-room, and was deeply humiliated over the old man's act. Baker withstood the panicky scenes with the cool resignation characteristic of him, but both of us exerted ourselves to the utmost to get out of the burning building; only to pause spellbound at hearing the voice of the Diva. We are glad to learn that our friend has forsaken the wickedness of newspaper work, and entered into the vineyard, where we hope the success that characterized his previous calling may be outrivalled by his efforts in the new. SEYMOUR (Ind.), July 16.—Fleming Sarver and wife of Uniontown had an adopted daughter, Dollie Belknap, aged 14. The girl had been keeping company with Hays Robins, the son of the wealthiest farmer of that section. On Saturday Mr. and Mrs. Sarver were taken ill. Upon investigation it was found that poison had been placed in the coffee. Dollie confessed that she, upon the advice of her lover, had poisoned the old folks so that she could inherit their property. Sarver died last night. When Mrs. Sarver heard of her husband's death she took a relapse, and is not expected to live. Warrants have been issued for the arrest of Robins and the Derringer girls, who are also supposed to be concerned in the case. Gertie Anderson, aged eight years, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Herman Anderson, living near Grand Rapids, Mich., has proven herself a heroine and saved the lives of two score of people. Her heroism consisted in stopping a passenger train which was rushing on to certain destruction.

He mentioned among these cases of two society people, but declined their account, to give their names and stage of the proceedings. SAN JOSE, Cal., July 15. — The short engagement of Manuel Enos and Mrs. Oliver caused quite a stir among the Gause population of Santa Clara. Enocured a divorce from his wife about weeks ago and at once began to look for a suitable helpmate. He concluded that widow Oliver, who was possessed a house and a small vegetable patio about as good a catch as could be made at once began paying attention to her their engagement leaked out Saturday. Saturday night Antone, the 20-year son of Mrs. Oliver, heard the news and once started for home to throw his protective stepfather into the street. When Antover home he found his mother and enjoying each other's company, and at attempted to eject Enos. The men pretty well matched and a stubborn fight aided during which the widow sought stable Dovell, who returned with her stopped the fight. Later in the evening Antone and Enos in a saloon up town and renewed theirilities. After a sight, in which friends both parties joined, a truce was patched by Enos relinquishing all claim to widow's hand and declaring the engager off. A Pioneer's Recommendatio Mr. J. W.

NATIONAL GUARD. MEETING OF THE BOARD OF LOCATION AT SAN FRANCISCO, BUT NO ACTION TAKEN ON CONSOLIDATING THE COMPANIES. The Board of Location of the National Guard, consisting of Governor Budd, Adjutant-General Barrett and Major-General Dimond, held a prolonged session at the California Hotel in San Francisco on Monday. Several hours were spent listening to reports of colonels of the regiments as to the condition of their respective commands. General Muller of Fresno appeared before the board to tell what he knows of the troops in the southern part of the State. Colonel Spileman of the Ninth Infantry was up from San Diego. Colonels Guthrie of the Second Infantry, McDonald of the Second Artillery and Bush of the First Infantry made reports in person. A delegation consisting of State Senator Gleaves and Major Shanahan and Captain Dosier of the Eighth Infantry came down from the state to urge the retention of the military company at that point. They were accorded an extended audience. General Dimond stated afterward that there had not been previously any discussion concerning that company, and he did "not know where they got their scare." It was after 6 o'clock when the board finally adjourned, but even then the military men who had been kicking their heels in the corridor all the afternoon were wiser than before. "There will be no report to night, gentlemen," said Adjutant-General Barrett. "The time has been wholly occupied in hearing reports and general discussion." A politician stepped up and asked after the Governor. "The Governor will see no one to-night except on military business," was the reply. Major-General Dimond had an engagement to dine with friends, and it was that which caused the adjournment. "We have reached absolutely no conclusion," he said. "The time was taken up with bearing reports. Meet again to-night? No." "When will the board meet again?" was asked. "I really do not know," was the reply. "We adjourned sine die." THE SUGAR BOUNTY. SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR THE "RELIEF" OF THE THREE CALIFORNIA FACTORIES. SAN FRANCISCO, July 15.—Collector Welburn has received instructions from Commissioner Miller relative to the distribution of the money appropriated by Congress for the relief of the sugar planters who were affected by the annulment of the bounty in the McKinley bill. It is estimated that about $200,000 will be distributed to the three beet-sugar manufacturers in California, the Alameda, the Western Beet Sugar Refinery and the Chino. Those who claim the sugar bounty desire to say something for themselves. Green, who is known as "Crooked Mouth," on account of a deformity in that organ, pleaded that he was an old man, would be sixty within a few months, and had a wife and daughter, who would have little on which to support themselves while he was away from them. He promised that he would get into some legitimate business as soon as his time was up; but he hoped that the court would send him to San Quentin rather than to Folsom, in order that he might be that much nearer to his family, which would remain in San Francisco. Defendant Gray also entered a plea to be sent to San Quentin. He said that he had been justly convicted, but that he had not always made his living in so precarious a manner. His plea to be sent to San Quentin rather than to Folsom was that his health was rather broken down. The plea of Smith also was for an enforced stay at San Quentin rather than at Folsom. He said that he had lived a respectable life and had been a business man of Memphis, Tenn., where he failed and where he went through an attack of yellow fever, which left his system subject to malaria, which would surely come out on him if he was sent to Folsom. Their attorney also made pleas for clemency, and the court fixed this afternoon at 2 o'clock as the time for passing the sentence. At that hour the formality of passing sentence was gone through with. The courtroom was crowded, and the court, after complimenting the attorneys on their conduct of the cases which had been tried, said that no jury in this or any other county could fail to find a verdict of "guilty." In passing sentence Judge Budd said that the officers who had had charge of the prisoners spoke very highly of their conduct and said they had found them gentlemen, who would resist the imputation that they were thieves regardless of the conviction and guilty pleas. He then fixed their terms of imprisonment: J. R. Green, five years; J. T. Gray, five years, and Clinton R. Smith, four years, all in San Quentin. IN THE FUTURE. When the Girl Who Earns $85,000 a Year Will Be A Destruible Wife. "Don't you think it about time for Mabel to consider the subject of matrimony?" he asked hesitatingly. "Oh, there is plenty of time," replied his wife. "Mabel is very ambitious, you know, and she is used to certain so-called luxuries that she would dislike to give up." "Well, frankly, I think she is working too hard." "Oh, no, she isn't. It will do her good. And since she won that case in the supreme court her income has been steadily increasing. If she continues to do as well in her profession, she may be able to think of marriage in a year or so. You see, things have changed since we were married." "Indeed they have," he sighed. "Then a girl's beauty, temperament and accomplishments had more to do with her matrimonial chances, but it is very different now, very different indeed."

"They protested because women's skirts dragged on the land, and now they object because they too high. Miss Anthony is in favor of men and women making love at colleges," where, she says, "they can love wisely and discreetly than in a ballroom."

He testified before the attorney jury that they had had several quarrels. On July 4th he told her would not call again and she said she did kill herself. Sunday night he took in his buggy to church at Macdonna, seven miles northeast of Awood and returned about midnight. This was to be the last night with her, and she told him that the next time he saw her it would be her coffin. He attempted to go in and her parents but she held the gate. She up stairs, and while her mother was long breakfast and her father was at the she got up, took a revolver from a drawer, went into another room and laying an old carpet and pillow on the lay down, and placing the revolver above the heart, pulled the trigger. Another note left by her bidding goodbye. WASHINGTON, July 16. — A handsome office rooms has been fitted up by Oklahoma lawyers, who propose to se­divorce while you wait. The case, which is the very latest to relieve terrible congestion of misfit marriages, is for the control of a syndicate. Whileington is to be the central office for part of the country, there are branch offices in Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Baltimore; the move gradually making its way to York and even Boston. The law of Oklahoma provides that citi­p may be acquired in three months.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 15.—Collector Welburn has received instructions from Commissioner Miller relative to the distribution of the money appropriated by Congress for the relief of the sugar planters who were affected by the annulment of the bounty in the McKinley bill. It is estimated that about $200,000 will be distributed to the three best-sugar manufacturers in California, the Alameda, the Western Beest Sugar Refinery and the Chino. Those who claim the sugar bounty thus allowed must make application to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue. After proper examination and verification, the bounty will be allowed by a draft on the Treasury. There are but seven best-sugar factories in the United States. Those outside of California, which has the most, are in Virginia, Utah and Nebraska. Two Lives Saved. Mrs. Phoebe Thomas of Junction City, Ill., was told by her doctor she had Consumption and that there was no hope for her, but two bottles of Dr. King's New Discovery completely cured her and she says it saved her life. Mr. Thos. Eggars, 139 Florida at., San Francisco, suffered from a dreadful cold, approaching Consumption, then bought without result everything else then bought one bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery and in two weeks was cured. He is naturally thankful. It is such results, of which these samples that prove the wonderful efficacy of this medicine in Coughs and Colda. Free trail bottles at W. M. Higgins' drugstore.

Leeper of South Bend, Ind., who formerly resided in Azaleim. The book is a narrative of the experience of Mr. Leeper and his party in a trip overland "across the plains" to the New Eldorado on the Pacific slope, and about the thread is woven much information concerning the nature of the country and the people who rushed to the digging from their Eastern homes and those occupying the territory. The story is clearly and succinctly told and bears evidence of a retentive memory, reflecting the observations of a practical man, and of much research and correspondence, particularly in procuring the names of those now living and dead who came to California from the East, of which quite a long list is given. Some of the details of the trip are quite exciting, some amusing and all are made interesting by the graphic pen of the writer. Mr. Leeper has succeeded admirably in giving us a true picture of the exciting and adventurous times of which he writes and placed a history of the trip across the continent before the days of railroads or the introduction of stages in admirable form for preservation. The book is well illustrated with fine pen drawings, made from old prints, daguerreotypes, photographs, etc., and by this means gives an excellent idea of the appearance of the party and its surroundings en route and after having reached the land of promise. The party left South Bend is March, 1849, and was seven months on the road, enduring privations and hardships that only gold or a high sense of duty will induce man to undergo. STOCKTON, July 15.-L.S. Osborne, whose wife was reported by her mother to be missing from her home in this city since last Thursday, complained at the police office this afternoon that the woman had been kidnapped by a young man named John Breena, a working man, and that she was being forcibly detained in an ark owned by the latter on McLeod's lake. The Chief of Police told Osborne to consult an attorney and he well-known that she would dislike to give up. "Well, frankly I think she is working too hard." Oh no, she isn't. It will do her good. And since she won that case in the supreme court her income has been steadily increasing. If she continues to do as well in her profession she may be able to think of marriage in a year or so. You see, things have changed since we were married. "Indeed they have," he sighed. Then a girl's beauty, temperament and accomplishments had more to do with her matrimonial chances, but it is very different now, very different indeed. Mabel is not yet the prize that I wish her to be, and I doubts if she could be sure of getting the kind of husband that I desire her to have. The best young men are very particular, you know. "Very true," he admitted. Many of them will hardly look at a girl whose earning capacity is not $4-000 or $5,000 a year. Mabal agrees with me that it is best to wait until she has reached that point, and then she is sure to be sought after by the very best and most desirable young men in the city."—Chicago Post.

The case, which is the very latest to relieve terrible congestion of misfit marriages, is the control of a syndicate. While Washington is to be the central office for part of the country, there are branches in Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Baltimore that move gradually making its way to York and even Boston. The law of Oklahoma provides that citi- pies may be acquired in three months. The expiration of that time a divorce may be applied for, and in case there is no de- or the defendant does not appear, the case may be granted in less than four days from the time the applicant leavesington. The defendant may not even comprise of what is going on. A wife appears. The husband does not know, perhaps does not care to know where she gone. She has simply gone to Oklahoma. If she is well off, she stays at one hotel. If she is not well off, the man wants to marry her when divorced the bill. Man in charge here said there were fifty clients who had applied for a divorce from his wife about three age and at once began to look about suitable helpmate. He concluded that shadow Oliver, who was the possessor of one and a small vegetable patch, was good a catch as could be made. He began paying attention to her, and engagement leaked out Saturday. Saturday night Antone, the 20-year-old Mrs. Oliver, heard the news and at started for home to throw his prosper- epfather into the street. When Antone home he found his mother and Enos each other's company, and at once tried to eject Enos. The men were well matched and a stubborn fight ensuing which the widow songt Com-Dovell, who returned with her and did the fight. In the evening Antone and Enos met soon up town and renewed their hos- tory. After a fight, in which friends of parties joined, a truce was patched up nos relinquishing all claim to the hand and declaring the engagement. A Pioneer’s Recommendation I. W. Venable of Downey, a pioneer Angeles county, Cal., says: "When man troubled with a pain in the stomach with diarrhoea I use Chamberlain’s cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. I need it for years, know it to be a rella- dy, and recommend it to every one." Stockton, July 15.—L.S. Osborne, whose wife was reported by her mother to be missing from her home in this city since last Thursday, complained at the police office this afternoon that the woman had been kidnapped by a young man named John Breen, a working man, and that she was being forcibly detained in an ark owned by the latter on McLeod’s lake. The Chief of Police told Osborne to consult an attorney and he did so with the result that Judge Budd issued a writ of habeas corpus directing Breen to produce the woman in court at 8 o'clock to-night or to appear and show that he was not detaining her. At the hour named Breen surprised the court by marching boldly into the room with Mrs. Osborne. Her husband was present with his attorney, and he and Breen exchanged angry glances. Mrs. Osborne sat with the man accompanying her and sobbed freely. When called on to testify, she stated in harsh tones that she had accompanied him of her own free will. Breen said that he had advised the woman to go home, but that she had refused to do so. Judge Budd dismissed the writ, with the intimation that the District Attorney might take up the case. Husband and wife went away together. BUNCO MEN SENTENCED. Stockton, July 15.—Within a day or two San Quentin will hold three more inmates. They will be three of the first men ever convicted in the State of California on the charge of grand larceny, for having played the part of bunco sharps and won thereby. When the case of the people against Clinton R. Smith, the third of the bunco trio that robbed Jacob Brack out of $2,000, on the old-time lottery game, was called in the Superior Court this morning, the defendant announced his intention to change the plea of "not guilty," which had been interposed, and enter one of "guilty." In doing so he said he was actuated by a desire to save the county the expense of the trial and also thereby, if possible, lessen the severity of the sentence imposed upon him. The attorney for the defendants then announced that all of his clients, Green, Gray and Smith, had decided to waive time for sentence and to take their punishment, whatever it might be. The first two had been convicted, but the time for passing sentence had been fixed for August 10th, in order to give them ample time to prepare their bills of exception and to take appeals, if they decided to do so. By the action of their attorney this morning it was shown that they had given up whatever hope they had based on a possible appeal to the higher court. All three of the defendants expressed a "Poor Richard’s Almanac" commanded at the last sale $18. Wanted—Berry Pickers. Apply to Paul Postzsch, west of Anahelm.
