The Institutes are held under the auspices of the University of California, and the meeting in this city will be attended by Prof. Hilgard, Prof. Loughridge and Dr. Hayne of Berkeley, Prof. Cook of Claremont, J. W. Mills of the Government Experiment station at Pomona, and other distinguished people from home and aboard. There will be five sessions of the Institute, the first of which will begin at 11 o'clock to-morrow morning. Invocation will be pronounced by Rev. Stone, and the address of welcome by W. J. Fay. The response will be by Prof. Cook of Claremont, who will preside at the sessions of the Institute. A paper on "Cultivation" will be read by J. B. Rea, than whom there is no one in this valley more competent to speak upon this important topic. This will be followed by the "Question Box" and a short discourse upon local clubs by Prof. Cook, and the morning session will be brought to a close with a musical selection. The second session will begin at 1:30 o'clock to-morrow afternoon. There will be music and the "Question Box," following which Prof. Hilgard of Berkeley will lecture upon "Faulty Soils and Their Treatment." Prof. Hilgard's lecture will be followed by a paper by J.

A discussion will follow Mr. Mills' paper, to be opened by Mr. Irwin of Riverside. Prof. Loughridge of Berkeley will lecture upon "The Soil and the Plant," and the session will close with music. The evening session will begin at 7:30 p.m. and will open with a selection of music followed by the "Question Box." There will be papers on the "Sugar Beet" by E. Turcke, "Small Fruits" by P. Poetzsch, and "Economy of the Household" by Mrs. Henry Kuchel. The Fullerton band has kindly consented to discourse music during the evening. in the newspaper field since the subsidence of the boom. The Times is a great paper and whether the other papers are in combination with it or not, the fact remains that if they are they ought to account themselves pretty lucky newspaper jaspers, every one of them. The ludicrous denials of these rumors is the most amusing bit of newspaper history since the enterprising Pomona Progress man set about the commendable task of writing flattering paragraphs about his own paper and printing them under credit to other papers that had never heard of the Progress before. THE San Pedro harbor matter hangs in the balance. It was a sorry day for Los Angeles when our old room-mate, Col. Harrison Geography Otis failed of the appointment as Australian Secretary of war.

HARRIS & FRANK, Proprietors. Romance Woven With Tale. The Los Angeles papers, the Times, Herald and Express have been printing ludicrous denials of the rumors current in that town to the effect that the three papers are now being published under one "combination." These reports have reached the outlying territory and notwithstanding the fact that the three papers may not be, as they say, members of the newspaper trust, yet the very friendly feelings prevailing amongst them, and the high regard which one editor seems to feel for the other, when it is known that for many years past they have been engaged in a senseless warfare one against the other, would seem to indicate that the millennium is not far off, and causes this beautiful newspaper love feast to be an object of remark. The Herald and Express have recently come under new editorial control and ROMANCE WOVEN WITH TALE. LOS ANGELES, April 5. — Weller's father is said to have good advice when he counseled him to beware of the widows. Nor Orth, late of Petaluma is of this ion, he is now incarcerated county jail charged by a widow grand larceny. Mrs. Magdalena elhoff is the cause of Orth's trouser. Orth is accused of having stitched Mrs. Peckelhoff, on or about Feb. 19th, a shotgun valued at $150 money, a gold ring and a prom note for $300. The story is one manace and rapid changes, and its traverses a good part of the State. Orth is a German about forty years of age and has a wife and children. He resided at Petaluma conducted a poultry ranch. Neil lived Mrs. Peckelhoff, who also property. She was a widow thirty years of age. Orth says she represents that she wanted him to run away her, as she had considerable morbidity. They left Petaluma January 14, visited San Francisco, where they were a week. Then they took a steak San Diego, and after staying a week came to Los Angeles. The man's money began to give out about the same time Orth b stricken with remorse. He claim finally Mrs. Peckelhoff gave him gun and told him to go out some money, off a train if need but he went home instead. Mrs elhoff then swore to the grand l complaint, and Deputy Sheriff Bar arrested Orth at Petaluma last Orth was arraigned in the Justice to-day and bail was fixed at $1,000 denies the widow's charges, but not furnish ball.

The Herald and Express have recently come under new editorial control and both papers have been greatly improved thereby. The Herald has for the first time in a number of years an experienced newspaper man at its head, who is making a very interesting paper out of it. The Express has been enlarged and materially improved under its new management. The editor of the Herald is understood to be a stockholder in the Times, and it is reported on good authority that other Times stockholders have recently purchased stock in the Herald. Against this there is nothing to be said. The purchase of the Herald stock was merely a business proposition with them, and we think they made a good paying investment as well. The Herald under its previous management was in decay, its stock was going a begging and the bond holding aristocrats of the Times, given a tip that newspaper men of ability would soon take charge of the paper, must have picked up some choice parcels of stock here and there at a minimum of outlay. They were given a tip of the improved condition shortly to intervene in the Herald, which the public has now, we believe, in its confidence. That they picked up this stock is rather to the credit of their business judgement, than that there should be a law preventing the purchases. The "swapping" of matter between the Herald and Express shows the existence of a community of interest between them, but as each declare that they are not operating under one combination we accept their statements as truth, and extend the felicitations of the season upon their vastly improved appearance since the new deal. The Times continues up to its usual high standard of excellence. The Times has had a "picnic" for the past six or seven years—it has had no great opposition Complete Program of Exercises for Tomorrow and Saturday's Session. OPENING DAY, FRIDAY, APRIL, 9, 11 A.M.

Old "San Juan-by-the Sea" had more excitement on Tuesday last than it has had for many a day, the occasion being the marriage of John Landell to Miss Soledad C. Pryor. The marriage ceremony was performed by the Evv. Father O'Keee, in the large room of the old Pryor mansion at 11 o'clock a.m. The bride was gowned in an elegant white satin dress, trimmed with chiffon, and wore the conventional bridal veil and orange blossoms, and carried a large bouquet of orange blossoms. The maids were Misses Teresa Pryor and Margaret Landell, and the groomsmen were John Forster and Charlie Landell. Before and during the ceremony the fames were wafted o'er from the cooking meats being prepared in the arroyo below, and after the marriage ceremony all joined in the procession to the large arbor, where tables had been made and plates laid for the guests. Immediately came the barbecued beef, mutton and pig, and with tortillas, salads, etc., already prepared, the guests quite 100 in number set down to the feast, and all were hospitably served. Col. Walter S. Moore presided as toast-master and his calls were answered in turn by Don Marcos Forster, Chief Justice Bacon, and Attorney Mendelson, and last but not least Father O'Keee, who spoke kind words to the assemblage, and especially gave words of wisdom and comfort to the bride and groom. After dinner dancing was enjoyed by those present. After the dance was over, the bride, having had arrayed before her all the marriageable young ladies, showered her bouquet of orange blossoms among them. The fortunate possessor of the same happened to be Miss Margaret Landell of Centralia. The ring encased in the wedding cake was captured by Miss Forster. At 4 o'clock p.m. the southbound train for Coronado was taken by the happy couple amidst a great shower of rice. Among the many guests were Marcos Forster and family, Sheriff Nichols and family, Walter S. Moore and family, Mesdames Butler and Shoemaker of Los Angeles, Squire Bacon and Mrs. Van Agnew of Santa Ana, and Judge Landell and family. The wedding presents were numerous and costly. CALIFORNIA FOR BEET SUGAR. The low prices received by the farmers of California for most of the products of the soil for several years past, particularly the cereal crop, writes E. H. Dyer in the Louisiana Planter of New Orleans, leads us to inquire what other crop could be profitably substituted for wheat and barley, which up annexation should be vigorously opposed. The male population of these islands, according to the last census, is as follows: Natives, 16,398; Americans, 1,975; Chinese and Japanese, 38,379; other nationalities, 23,055. I think all will admit that a large majority of these people are not a very desirable class to admit to our national family. That the United States has received no benefit from this treaty any one can readily see by a simple investigation of fact, which briefly stated are as follows: The Hawaiian treaty of reciprocity took effect September 9, 1876. During that year there was received at San Francisco from those islands 21,171,133 pounds of sugar. Under the stimulus of this treaty that permitted the entrance of these sugars into the United States, duty free, the product increased annually, until the amount shipped to San Francisco in 1893 reached 317,100-363 pounds, and the total amount to San Francisco from the date of the treaty up to December 31, 1894, was 3,075,100-376 pounds. Had Hawaiian sugar been subject to duty, the same as sugars from other foreign countries, say 24 cents a pound, which is less than the average duty collected on foreign sugars during that period, for the same grade of sugar, the United States Treasury would have been enriched by $76,887,509. This large sum of money actually donated to the sugar planters of those islands by the treaty of 1876, was in fact a bounty paid to them by our government to aid in developing their sugar industry. If that amount of money had been used by our government in promoting the production of domestic sugar, it would have been sufficient to erect seventy-five beet sugar factories, each capable of turning out 20,000,000 pounds of sugar a year, being a total annual output of about 700,000 tons, being about 542,000 tons more than the islands in 1894. The only argument used in favor of that treatment is that by it these islanders are induced to buy American goods. As a matter of fact, they only buy such goods of us as they would be compelled to purchase any way, for reason that they could not obtain them so cheaply in any other country. Their principal purchases in this country are hay, grain and flour. Most of their machinery, if not all, except that made on the islands from iron and coal imported from European countries, is purchased in Europe. The amount of money expended in this country by these islanders never amounted to the duty on sugar remitted by our government. The agriculturists of and civilized nation are the foundation of its wealth and prosperity, and that powerful class in the United States can demand Congress such legislation as will prevent sending to foreign countries millions of dollars to purchase goods that can be produced from our own soil, by our own people.

The Board of Supervisors met in regular session at Santa Ana on Tuesday. A committee from the Santa Ana member of Commerce presented the letter of opening Santa Clara avenue through the Santa Ana cemetery. Armed to Supervisor Armor, who consult the District Attorney in regard to the proposed improvement, the deed for a new road in Tustin received from Herbert Crooks et al. and was accepted and filed. Claim from the Hall Safe & Lock Company, for $4067 for material furnished for the new jail was received filled. Judge Ballard requested some repairs the judge's chamber. Referred to German Nickey, with power to act. Judge was authorized to procure sets of pocket codes. The Clerk was instructed to notify City Clerk of Orange that the city will pay an annual rental of $18 the jail in said city. The rent for Anaheim jail was reduced from $20 per year. J. Morrow was placed on the indent list with an allowance of $8 per month. Elvira Lopez was allowed the amount. The low prices received by the farmers of California for most of the products of the soil for several years past, particularly the cereal crop, writes E. H. Dyer in the Lousiana Planter of New Orleans, leads us to inquire what other crop could be profitably substituted for wheat and barley, which up to this time have been the principal dependence of the California farmer. As a large portion of the lands devoted to the production of grain is well adapted to sugar beet culture, the answer seems simple. We send annually to foreign countries about $120,000,000 to purchase sugar which can be produced in our own country from a small portion of the land now unprofitably devoted to grain. To produce the above amount of sugar would require 2,000,000 acres of land and $57,600,000 worth of beets annually, which money would go directly into the hands of the farmers, and about $62,400,000 to the manufacturers to pay for labor, coal and other material used in extracting the sugar from the beets. To work up these beets would require 120 factories capable of working 100,000 tons of beets in a season, costing $60,000,000. Each of these factories would require about 125 men to operate them. All the machinery for these factories can be made in this country superior to that made in Europe, as is fully proved by that used in the Alvarado and Lehi factories. All of the machinery used in the construction of the large factory now being built at Alamitos is made in this country. This money should all be expended among our own industrial classes instead of being sent out of the country to enrich foreign sugar planters and manufacturers. To accomplish that which is set forth above, all that is necessary is adequate protection against cheap foreign labor. The next Congress may increase the duty on foreign sugars, but that gives no protection against the sugar produced on the Hawaiian Islands, marketed in this country duty free under the present reciprocity treaty. Any tariff imposed on other foreign sugars is, in fact a bounty to the Hawaiian planter, enabling him to sell his sugar, produced by cheap contract and coolie labor, in our market at a price, if he cares to do so, with which we are unable to compete. This one-sided treaty should be abrogated at once, and any attempt toward suspended in this country by these islanders never amounted to the duty on sugar remitted by our government. The agriculturists of and civilized nation are the foundation offits wealth and prosperity, and that powerful class in the United States can demand of Congress such legislation as will prevent sending to foreign countries millions of dollars to purchase goods that can be produced from our own soil, by our own people. RUMORS OF ANNEXATION. SAN DIEGO, April 5.-From hints dropped by officers of the United States cruiser Philadelphia it is believed that the vessel is waiting the arrival here of a special Commissioner, appointed by the President, who will go to Hawaii to investigate the condition of affairs there with a view of making a report on the question of annexing the islands to the United States. Since the publication of an interview with an officer of the Philadelphia giving information concerning Admiral Beardslee's orders the Admiral has been very close-mouthed, even among his own officers, and orders were given to all officers and men not to give out any information on penalty of a court-martial if discovered. But in defiance of this order the officers and men are inclined to discuss the forthcoming trip to Hawaii and the part the Philadelphia is to play. They said to day that the cruiser would not leave until Thursday, though she will be ready for sea by tomorrow afternoon or Wednesday morning. The reason for this delay does not appear, except from a hint dropped by an officer who said the flagship was waiting for a passenger. Some of the officers have ventured the conjecture that a commissioner clothed with the same power conferred by President Cleveland upon Blount has been appointed, and that he is now on his way across the continent to take passage by the Philadelphia. Who this commissioner is cannot, of course, told, but one or two officers of the Philadelphia said they were inclined to think that John W. Foster would be the man on account of his intimate knowledge of Hawaii gained on a former visit to the islands and his ability to handle the delicate mission. Orange Trees For Sale.

Los ANGELES, CAL., April 5.—At least one Chinaman in this city has ascertained that he cannot do what he pleases even with his own offspring. Wong Si Hong one of the most influential merchants of Chinatown was arrested this morning by Humane Officer Clark charged with cruelty to children. For some time past the officers have reported to Clark that Wong was in the habit of binding the feet of his children, and as the operation appeared to be a painful one they believed something should be done to put a stop to it. The officers visited Wong's place today and there saw two little Chinese girls, one seven and the other nine years of age whose feet had been encased and bound in pieces of stout cloth which held them in a compressed position and prevented their natural growth. Shoes and stockings inclosed the material over the feet. Clark took charge of the children and arrested Wong. The police surgeon will probably be called on to pass judgment as to the effect of the binding process on the feet. If Clark succeeds in convicting Wong it will prove a sad blow to that particular Chinese custom. Borrego Gang Seeking Vengeance. SANTA FE. N.M., April 5.—Josee, the eighteen-year-old brother of the Borregos serving a two-and-a-half-year sentence for assault with intent to kill was released from the penitentiary today upon Governor Thornton's order granting a stay of execution. The boy had served twelve months, and in consideration of his age and the recent lesson taught by the hanging of his two brothers, the Governor thought the ends of justice had been met though the order stipulates that liberty shall be enjoyed only so long as the youth behaves himself. There is considerable uneasiness here lest the Borrego gang make more trouble. Several officials and members of the jury which convicted the Chavez assassins have been threatened. Last night Dr. J.

Don't order any grave stones until you see H. T. Talbott, the grave stone worker at Santa Ana, North Main street. From very early times one of the distinguishing marks of a slave, both in Greece and oriental countries generally, was the lack of any covering for the head. Accordingly the cap came to be considered the insignia of liberty, and when slaves were given their freedom they were presented with a cap as an emblem of it. In Sparta the helots wore a cap of dogskin and this was reckoned a badge of servitude, but upon gaining their freedom this was replaced by a cap of a different material, of another shape and ornamented with flowers. A similar custom was observed in Rome, where the presentation of the pileus or cap was always a part of the ceremony of manumitting a slave; hence arose the proverb, "Servos ad pileum vo-care." Also on medals the cap is the symbol of liberty and is usually represented as being held in the right hand by the point. When a cap was exposed to the people's view on the top of a spear, as in the case of the conspiracy against Ocear, it was intended as a public invitation to them to embrace the liberty that was offered them. The Goddess of Liberty on Mount Aventine was represented as holding a cap in her hand as a symbol of freedom. The Jacobins wore a red cap during the French revolution, and in England a blue cap with a white border is used as a symbol of liberty. The custom which prevails among university students of wearing a cap is said to have had its origin in a wish to signify that the wearers had acquired full liberty and were no longer subject to the rod of their superiors.
