The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. HENRY KUCHEL, CHARLES KUCHEL, Editors and Proprietors. THURSDAY... SEPTEMBER 30, 1897 Young Mr. Engineer Sharpe has submitted his first report to the City Trustees, finding the Fischer engine installed at the city electric light works by Wybro & Lawrence to be unsatisfactory. The document, which comes to the people like the voice of one awakening from a lengthy period of slumber, is quite interesting, and will be found printed in our local columns this morning. Mr. Sharpe's report has one ordinal defect—it should have been submitted full three months ago. Work on installing the new electric lights began on April 13, more than five months ago; the works were to be completed in 90 days, and two months after the beginning of work the Trustees called for a report from the supervising engineer relative to the progress and the manner of carrying out the improvements. No report was forthcoming, although serious criticisms of the engine which had just arrived and was then being installed were heard on all hands. The engine we are now told by the supervising engineer is not satisfactory, and now that Mr. Sharpe has recovered the power of speech we hope he will see to it that the contractors are jollied up to the end that the works may be completed as early as possible—say by Thanksgiving! Let Mr. Sharpe do his duty by the town. His silence during the past three months, during which time the engine has been condemned on all sides, is rather inexplicable; and his report comes fresh as the sound of an old friend whose voice has been stilled. We consider Sharpe a capable electrical engineer, but he has added nothing to his reputation by remaining silent while so much criticism was being leveled at the engine. In fact, the special meeting of the Burgomeisters held on last Wednesday evening was for no other purpose than for decapitating Sharpe's official head, if no report on the works had been forthcoming at that time. That gentleman reported verbally, and on Tuesday will not approach to within miles of the roads "broken up" by the "best industry," it will perceive at a glance how wide of the mark the observations of its correspondent really are. The road designated by the Supervisors to be sprinkled embraces the principal traveled thoroughfare between Placentia and Fullerton, thence to this city, and thence south to Miraflores, a distance of perhaps ten miles. The sprinkling will be done each alternate day. The distance of this thoroughfare from the roads "broken up" by the "beet industry" is from one to seven miles. Moreover, an application of water every other day to the roads used by the heavy beet wagons would be just that much money thrown away. The roads are undoubtedly cut up—we expect them to be so, in common with the roads in other portions of the State at this time of the year. Twenty-five thousand tons of beets have been hauled over them, and the harvest is yet to continue a month or more. Nothing but the rains of winter will put them in good condition, but the City Trustees have not as yet entered into a contract with the weather clerk to do this work.

His bicycle next day and killed him. But another and more serious view of the affair is now accepted as truth by persons in Berlin and where whose sources of information are of the very best. One of Emily William's peculiarities is a contempt for women which he makes no attempt to conceal,and seems proud of his disparagement women as inferior to men. This been the cause of more than one pleasant incident. The Emperor was in an unusual supercilious mood on the day of incident. He was talking with a officer on the deck of his yacht Among them was Lieut. von Hauser one of the most prominent officers of the German army. The Emperor without the slightest regard for young man's feelings,s possibly lying his presence,made a brutal re-about his mother,the wife of the eral.The young man was terrified confronted his sovereign knocked him down with a terrified with his fist on the eye. There was awful consternation time,但 details of what happen not been learned except that attempt to punish the young office made.它 was speedily realized that would be impossible to deal with by ordinary legal or military men without the result that Europe ring with the scandal in which sympathies of the public would tirely with the chivalrous Lieutenant Nevertheless,his prospects,of course were ruined,and he soon learned his father and family were also involved in the imperial vengeance It is not surprising under the circumstances that he decided to take his life.as he undoubted did do. This sensational story,of course would be denied if attempts were to substantiate it.In the highest tiers it is accepted,however,with credence by those who have known the facts,and considering many minor points of confirm which are current,there is no probability that it is substantially true. BEET-SUGAR SEED. May be Franked from Growers toiment Stations. WASHINGTON,Sept.27.-Sec Wilson of the Agricultural Department has secured an order from the office Department.permitting agents of the Agricultural Department to attach the department fran packages of beet-sugar seed to from growers to the experiment tions throughout the country for alysis. TESTS of sugar beets made at the laboratory yesterday went as low as 10 per cent, and some went as low as 9 per cent. These beets were ready to harvest a month ago, but owing to the curtailment of the shipments to China (the same having been suddenly reduced from 800 tons per day to 1000 tons per week) these beets have remained in the ground so long that some are taking a second growth and all are lowering in their saccharine content so greatly that it is doubtful if any more of them will be harvested. There are yet some 550 acres of beets to take out, or there were on Tuesday, when the last calculation was made, and this area will yield probably 5800 tons. The harvest will require six weeks yet. Twenty-five thousand tons have thus far been shipped to Chino. The contracts entered into between the farmers and the factory are altogether one-sided and unfair. The factory reserves the right to say when and how much of one's beets it will handle at any time. If it can be shown that these low beets had a sugar content of, say, 18 per cent a month ago, and that by the failure of the factory to accept them when they were ready for delivery, they have lost their sugar such an extent that it will not pay to harvest them, can these farmers recover for their loss? The question is an interesting one, but indubitably the farmer with a ten-acre patch of worthless beets on his hands that were a month ago possessed of a valuable sugar content, will reflect that the contracts are rather one-sided and unfair. It is outrageous that farmers should be required to raise a crop of beets, bring them to successful maturity and then have to lose everything because the factory refuses to accept of his beets when they are ready to harvest. It is outrageous—absolutely outrageous. But while the area of these low beets here will be found to be limited, at Chino this low-beet area will probably approach nearly a half of the entire crop. An inch of rain would spoil CENTRALIA ITEMS. Otto Roller and wife are yet at the Rollo ranch. It is Otto's intention to open a dental office in the near future, and we think that "Ot" is one of the best. Mr. Schroeder was out on Saturday evening and Sunday visiting with his Buena Park confrere, Charley Landell. Sunday afternoon they took in the ostrich farm, where the genial Ed Atherton entertained them. They entered into a discussion as to the advisability of Chino sendingEd all their waste beet pulp for the ostriches. Beet hauling for both Chino and Alamitos continues, and even at the prevailing low prices our farmers generally are going to make some money. A few of them probably will not. From what can be learned there is a disposition on the part of the beet sugar factory people to meet the demands of the farmers for an additional price for beets for the coming season. A fair discussion of the case between the growers and manufacturers will eventuate in an increased price for beets, I think. Mrs. Wilkins is still a sojourner with her niece, Mrs. Landell, and is charmed with the country, especially as to its fruits. A 77 pound watermelon that Charley Landell raised took her fancy, and no doubt when she returns to Philadelphia some fairy tales will BEET-SUGAR SEED. May be Franked from Growers to iment Stations. WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.—Sec Wilson of the Agricultural Department has secured an order from the office Department, permitting agents of the Agricultural Department to attach the department fragrance packages of beet-sugar seed to buy from growers to the experiment stations throughout the country for analysis. Last spring the Agricultural Department sent sugar-beet seed to feed in twenty-seven States. It is not intention to test the beets grown these seeds in the various localities saccharine strength, and it is do that this work shall be conducted the experiment stations. Under arrangement made to-day with Post-office Department, the office the experiment stations will allow to send postal franks to all users to whom they supplied seeds, use of which they can send through mails free of cost packages of beet exceeding four pounds in weight. Returns have been received some of the experimental growth Secretary Wilson said to-day that trary to his expectations, the beet turns have been received from South, rather than from the Beet grown in the vicinity of Mond., Va., give returns of from 18 per cent of saccharine matter from the Pecos Valley, N.M., from 22 per cent. In Europe an average of 13 per cent is considered large. It is Mr. Wilson's intention to tribute twelve tons of sugar-beet next spring. Heretofore all the distributed by the department been procured in Europe. The ers in Utah have promised three this year, and it is expected that localities in the United States will nish part of the supply next year. A LOAD OF GOLD Steamer Coming With $400,000 Dust-Some of the Successful Ones. SEATTLE, Wash., Sept. 28.—Vinnedge, formerly a resident of Tule, but later of Alaska, has retired from Cook's Inlet with the state that the steamer Bertha will here about Oct. 15th, with from 100 miners and about $400,000 in dust taken during the season from Turn-Again-Arms diggings. A Seattle man named Snuzer I have been the most successful in the district, with Fred Smith Juneau, a close second. A combination of six men took out $16. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 28.—John Webber, a young man who rets from Skagway Sept. 1, with about 20 mysteriously disappeared this day, is now on his way back to his home in Detroit. Before leaving for he he found some friends to whom he fided the fact that all of his money been squandered with congenial s and that he had barely enough pay his fare home. He is believed have been buncoed by confidence stores. Rear-Admiral Miller, in commendation the Pacific station, who is now at lulu on the flagship Philadelphia ship. less beets on his hands that were a month ago possessed of a valuable sugar content, will reflect that the contracts are rather one-sided and unfair. It is outrageous that farmers should be required to raise a crop of beets, bring them to successful maturity and then have to lose everything because the factory refuses to accept his beets when they are ready to harvest. It is outrageous—absolutely outrageous. But while the area of these low beets here will be found to be limited, at Chino this low-beet area will probably approach nearly a half of the entire crop. An inch of rain would spoil every one of these beets. No wonder the farmers are organizing for protection, to demand better prices for their crops and to insist upon contracts equitable and fair to both parties. Here is a dispatch which we find in the San Francisco Chronicle of Saturday last, telegraphed from Santa Ana, which we think will be read with considerable interest by people hereabouts: The Trustees of Anaheim have just submitted to them a scheme for improving the roads in the western portion of the county, which they will adopt at their next regular meeting. The beet industry, of which this part of the county is the center, has broken up the roads to such an extent that it is next impossible to travel over them in light vehicles. The plan proposed for their improvement is the fitting of small gasoline engines to large sprinkling wagons and pumping water from the irrigation ditches, from which it is to be hauled in different directions within a radius of about ten miles from Anaheim and applied to the roads broken up by the beet wagons. In cases where there are no irrigation ditches to pump from the Supervisors will sink two-inch artesian wells, which will furnish all the water necessary. The scheme is hailed with pleasure by the farmers around Anaheim. It will also be of a great advantage to the city, for the present state of the roads is doing much harm to the trade of the town. That's a very nice story; but if the Chronicle will reflect that under the law the City Trustees have no right to contract for work outside the city limits; that the roads inside the municipality have not been "broken up" by the "beet industry;" that the system of road sprinkling now under consideration by the County Supervisors does not contemplate the sprinkling of the roads "indifferent directions within a radius of about ten miles from Anaheim," and that the sprinkled area vailing low prices our farmers generally are going to make some money. A few of them probably will not. From what can be learned there is a disposition on the part of the beet sugar factory people to meet the demands of the farmers for an additional price for beets for the coming season. A fair discussion of the case between the growers and manufacturers will eventuate in an increased price for beets, I think. Mrs. Wilkins is still a sojourner with her niece, Mrs. Landell, and is charmed with the country, especially as to its fruits. A 77 pound watermelon that Charley Landell raised took her fancy, and no doubt when she returns to Philadelphia some fairy tales will be told. Centralia school being an accredited one has begun under the principalship of Miss Leona Browning and her worthy assistant, Miss Bowen. We look forward to very good results under their care at the next closing of the school term. The commencement exercises of this school are always an interesting event in our community. "Uncle" Steve Stroud, of race horse fame of yore, has all his running stock now in the harness hauling beets, of which he has quite a big lot, to be delivered to the Chino people. Uncle Steve says that after all there is nothing like a good solid business, and predicts that he will clean up more money at the end of the beet season than he would have made in running races with his blooded stock. Uncle Steve is really a philosopher after all. A ROYAL EYE BLACKENED. The Kaiser Has a Damaged Optic-Spoke Ill of a Woman. LONDON, Sept. 25.—It is a piece of personal gossip, more than serious affairs of state, which is most discussed just now in the circle usually interested in international politics. Ever since the German Emperor received a mysterious black eye during his summer yachting cruise a variety of stories have taken afloat about the circumstances of the so-called accident. It has been known in well-informed circles ever since the week following that the death of Lieut. von Hahnke shortly after the incident was a sequel of the affair. He unquestionably committed suicide, despite the semi-official assertion that he was killed by accident. The first version circulated was that he was technically responsible for the mishap which made it possible for a disloyal block to swing from aloe and floor the imperial master of the yacht. The Emperor had denounced him before the crew in unmeasured language. The young officer had taken his diagege much to heart. He rode off on When coming across the company recently, Mrs. Herman Oelrichs Miss Virginia Fair accepted their station of Engineer Sholl of the Coast Pacific to ride in the cab of his eighth order to return at a stated time; she stated on undisputed authority that she dispatches from the Secretariat: The Navy instruct Admiral Miller closely watch every move made by Japanese, and at the very first step any unusual step to hoist the Star Stripes over the islands again and hold them against all opposition.

Interesting Experience of the Four Hardy Miners who are Seeking their Fortune Under Difficulties. DAGGETT, Sept. 21, 1897. At 6 a.m. this morning we started in a northeasterly direction, the first nine miles traveled being very rough and obliging us to walk most of the way. The thermometer registered 95 to 100 degrees and made me think we were nearing the place the old German did not wish to stop at. Arrived at Fergus ranch and secured a good place to camp, there being plenty of water and shade trees, making it very pleasant for lunch. The dairying industry is carried on to some extent at this place, the proprietors owning considerable dairy stock. After filling our canteens and four five-gallon cans with water we made another start and traveled some 16 or 17 miles. Camped over night on the open desert, and bright and early the next morning we made another start to strike the river. The roads are almost impassable, the sand and gravel being very deep. Tis now half-past 10 a.m. of the 22nd and we have had to stop for breakfast. Three of us have been walking ever since sunrise, so you may imagine we are having a taste of the hardships as well as the pleasure of a trip across the desert. Breakfast being dispensed with we proceeded on down the river bed to a point called "The Caves," and found a good camping place with plenty of water. The thermometer registers 100 deg., "in the grub-box, of course." Sept. 23, 1897.—6 a.m.—After supplying ourselves with water we again break camp. Roads are even worse than the day before, as we only made about 7 miles from 6 a.m. until noon. Had our dinner on the open desert and while enjoying the repast an old settler of this part of the world drives up and informs us that we age about 15 miles from the spring we expect to make by this evening. We fed the horses and gave them most of the water we had for them. Thermometer 100 deg. "in the grub-box." We make another start and after traveling about 4 miles gave the horses the balance of the water, and we have a canteen and a half of water for four of us, with 11 miles to make on the open desert before reaching Soda Lake springs. At this time we find our load is too heavy for the horses and conclude to leave part and make for water. I being the lightest and most needy am accorded the privilege of riding; the others following on foot. We are beginning to think we are on a short allowance of NOW IS THE TIME TO GET THE ADVANTAGE OF A BUSINESS EDUCATION BY ATTENDING THE ORANGE COUNTY BUSINES COLLEGE.

SEEDS OF SEDITION. The Central American Republics in an Unsettled condition. NEW YORK, Sept. 27.—A dispatch to the Herald from Washington says: The Central American Republics, according to the Pan-American diplomats in Washington, are undoubtedly on the eve of a general upheaval. The success of the revolutionists in Guatemala, the downfall of Dictator Barrios and the elevation of Prospero Morales to the presidency, is believed to be inevitable, and is likely to, of itself, bring about a revolution in several of the sister republics. The imprisonment of the Costa Rican consul general, Don Eduardo Beren, by the Nicaraguan authorities is regarded as a serious breach of international courtesy that can hardly prevent a rupture. The seeds of sedition are easily sown in Honduras, and the uneasiness in that country seems likely to result in an open revolt against President Bonilla, as an indirect result of the success of the revolution in Guatemala. Salvador alone, of the Spanish American states, at present appears quiet and likely to remain so. A successful revolution to either of the states of Greater Central America would mean the dissolution of the feeble diplomatic bonds which now unite them, and from present indications another coalition of this nature might be difficult to bring about. A Spanish American diplomat, who is thoroughly familiar with the Central American situation, says: "There seems to be every probability that the revolutionists in Guatemala will be masters of the government in a short time, and that Barrios will be forced to leave the country, if he is not assassinated." "One of the strongest and most efficient supporters of the Guatemalan revolution is General Domingo Vasquez, who is now besieging Chiquinulua, where President Barrios now is Vasquez about four years ago was president of Honduras, and was driven from that country largely through the powers of Zelaya. He would like to regain the presidency of Honduras, and should Morales become president of Guatemala through his and plots will be immediately formed for the downfall of President Bonilla. Vasquez, as president of Honduras, would be dangerous to the peace of Nicaragua. His hatred of Zelaya would easily find a pretext for arousing affresh the latter's opponents, who, with aid from Honduras and Guatemala, would probably be able to defeat Zelaya and elevate his rival Alejandro Chamorro, to the presidency. These results, I believe, are During the present month nearly $5,-000,000 worth of grain has left Pacific Coast ports for Europe. Up to Tuesday 35 vessels have sailed from San Francisco. Of these, 17 carried wheat, 5 carried barley, 12 carried mixed cargoes of wheat, and 1 carried 23,035 barrels of flour, valued at $115,112. Oregon sent away 7 vessels with 352,200 centals, valued at $621,513, and two vessels with 50,072 barrels of flour, valued at $200,500; while Puget Sound sent away 3 vessels with 160,310 centals, valued at $242,240. Besides these, 28 lumber vessels have sailed for foreign ports with cargoes valued at over $200,000. As the month of August nearly equaled September, the export of grain and flour alone for the month would easily run into the ten-million figure. An official statement has been issued showing the number of men and the quantities of munitions of war sent to Cuba and the Philippine Islands during the insurrections which are in progress in those quarters. Between November, 1895, and May, 1897, the Spanish Government sent to Cuba 181-738 soldiers and 6261 officers, of whom forty were generals; 212,542 guns, 320-406 kilograms of powder; 92,088,670 cartridges, 16,712 swords, 91 cannon, 12 mitrailleuses and 29,500 shells. Since the outbreak of the present revolution in the Philippines, the Government has sent 27,560 soldiers and 881 officers, of whom nine are generals; 42,100 guns, 24 cannon, 24,910 kilograms of powder, 21,726,585 cartridges and 30,604 shells. Autumn in the Sierra! Southern Pacific Excursions to Lake Tahoe every Tuesday and Thursday from Los Angeles during September and October, 1897. The rate of fare from Anaheim, including rail, stage and steamer, and five days' board and rooms at the Tallac House, Lake Tahoe, will be $33.30; tickets good 15 days after date of sale. Trains leave Anaheim at 7:54 A.M. and 4:25 P.M. connecting at Los Angeles with trains. This affords an opportunity to visit this famous mountain lake at a very reasonable price. Camping this season is delightful, so hunting and fishing. The atmosphere is dry and crisp, and tonic abounds in every breath of air. PLOT AGAINST DIAZ. Startling Conspiracy Against the Mexican President. CITY OF MEXICO, Sept. 28.—Arroyo, who assaulted President Diaz on September 16th, and who was killed same night in the municipal palace, Some of the Advantages That seceded by the Ambidextrous men and women who can use either right hand with equal facility are also so frequently met with as first be supposed—in fact they rare.

In view of the many advantages from the ability to use both hands well many people have expressed surprise at the notion national authorities in insisting use of only the right hand trying to develop an equal other. They all stick to the raised idea, however, and an old Frankford noted for his tressure is still mourning a prize at school through the left hand in writing although equally skillful as a penman right.

The first intimation of this fact came from the chief of police, Valesquez, who confessed that Arroyo had been assassinated and not lynched. Valesquez was placed in prison, but was found dead in his cell the day after he confessed, with a bullet wound in his left temple. The warden of the prison is in turn in jail, under suspicion of having knowledge of the killing. Later developments indicate that Valesquez was also in the conspiracy to assassinate President Diaz, and, after the failure of Arroyo's attempt, being fearful of betrayal, decided to have that person killed in prison that same night. Much excitement prevails in this city in consequence of these disclosures, which point to the existence of a far-reaching plot, the extent of which can be yet only surmised. NEBRASKA POLITICS. Gold and the Silver Republicans Trying to Find Where They are at. LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 28.—Some very interesting litigation, growing out of the peculiar state of politics in Nebraska, is likely to ensue. The Gold Republicans have filed a protest with the Secretary of State against the Silver Republicans being designated in the ticket under that name. They stated that the new election laws of the State prevent any new party taking the name or any part of the name of a political organization already in existence. In reply the Silver Republicans begin by admitting the correctness of the Gold Republicans' version of the law but will maintain that the Republicans are the usurpers and should be enjoined from using the title "Republican party," and in support of their position they will quote from a number of State platforms of the party, in which a common use of both gold and silver is declared to be the cardinal principle of the Republican party and in which the free collage of silver is supported. It is thought probable that the matter will reach national proportions before it is settled. CUNNING OF THE LEFT HAND Some of the Advantages That Are Possessed by the Ambidextrous.

Ambidextrous men and women, or those who can use either right or left hand with equal facility, are not nearly so frequently met with among outchers and sailors than in any other walks of life. Left handed butchers are numerous, as a walk through any of our large market houses will quickly demonstrate, but it is a very interesting study to watch one of them who will cut, chop, saw and handle his meat without once changing it from one side to the other on the block or changing his own position. In view of the many advantages derived from the ability to use both hands equally well many people have often expressed surprise at the action of educational authorities in insisting on the case of only the right hand instead of trying to develop an equal skill in the other. They all stick to the right hand idea, however, and an old resident of Frankford, noted for his ambidextrousness, is still mourning the loss of a prize at school through the use of his left hand in writing, although he was equally skillful as a penman with his right. The benefits derived from the use of both hands were excellently illustrated in the experience of two carpenters who lived in Frankford some years ago. Their names were Cross and Walton, and the former was right handed, the latter left handed. As one was also very tall and the other very short, they made a curious couple, but they always worked together laying floors and putting up joiners' work in buildings. They could take jobs of this character cheaper than any other, because they could work from either end toward each other so handily. Cross would squash a floor board at one end and Walton would "soribe" and cut it off so fit at the other end and then nail down, working together from opposite ends. Left handed machinists are always at a disadvantage, as machinery is invariably adapted to people who work right handed, but the ambidextrous man or woman is always at home in whatever work is undertaken.—Philadelphia Record, NEW ORLEANS, Sept 28.—The yellow fever situation here continues exasperatingly the same. A daily average of eighteen to twenty cases and two deaths has kept up, but while there is no sign of an epidemic visitation, the slow progress of the disease puts obstacles daily in the way of the merchant public, who are anxious to again resume trade with the surrounding country. The record to-day was not unlike that of many other days, in that it showed a death through sheer neglect of the patient, and of twenty-one cases up to date having a fatal termination. The facts are incontrovertible that at least one-half died through neglect or lack of attention. Business is showing feeble signs of revival, and the railroads are putting forward superhuman efforts to secure a modification of the quarantine regulations. In September, 1878, there were between eighty and ninety people dying of yellow fever daily. The daily average since the beginning of the fever is hardly one. There have been a total of 177 cases to date and 21 deaths. A number of patients were discharged to-day. HOUSTON, Tex., Sept. 28.—Regarding the suspicious case of fever here, the State Board of Health officers have requested the Houston Board of Health to issue the following this evening: "Case somewhat suspicious, but strictly guarded. I have no apprehension of the result. The Board of Health unanimous in declaring the case nothing more than inflammation of kidneys." EDWARDS, Miss., Sept. 28.—There was one death here to day from yellow fever, that of W. Thowie. Twenty-one new cases are reported here to-day. MOBILE, Ala., Sept. 28.—The noon report of the Board of Health to-day shows the effect of excessive hot weather of the past six days upon the populace. The number of cases recorded for the past twenty-four hours was ten, all the patients having been taken ill from the 23rd to the 24th. One death announced was that of Mrs. Alma Kersh, reported last night. The board's summary is 60 cases, 9 deaths, 30 recovered and 25 under treatment. The ratio of deaths to cases is 14 per cent.
