THE WEEK'S LOCAL NEWS Anaheim Boy Returns from Point Barrow. Henry Boege Tells of His Experiences During a Whale Hunting Cruise in the Arctic—How the Adventuresome Hunter Harpoons the Whale, and Gets a Shipload of Bone Aboard that is Valued at Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars—William Forbes of Buena Park Narrowly Escapes a Horrible Death at the Griffith Lumber Yard—Southern Pacific Officials Here on an Inspection Trip—S. W. Porter, Who Was in the Fight at Manila, Here on a Visit to Relatives—Mr. Hale Sees a Windstorm Coming and Turns Back Home—The Cannery Closed—Brevities Henry Boege returned on Saturday to his home in this city after an absence in the Arctic of nearly eleven years, weighing 2154 pounds, and looking as if his experiences while snow-bound at Point Barrow had quite agreed with him. He returned to San Francisco on the whaling steamer Thrasher Nov. 5. He left San Francisco on the Thrasher March 8, 1894. On the trip up, Capt. Wicks, while going down into the hold, slipped and fell nine feet, breaking his neck. The body was placed in an ice house on Herschel island, at the mouth of the Mackenzie river, during the winter, and in the spring of '95 the body was taken out, on the return trip of the steamer, embalmed, brought to San Francisco and shipped to his home in the East for burial. Boege was ice bound with the whalers at Point Barrow from Sept. 14, 1897, to July 7 of this year, when the ice broke sufficiently to permit of making the home trip. He was a member of the crew of the steamer Newport during this time, having been three winters and four summers with that vessel. The vessel returned with ten whale heads, the bone of the whale being taken only from the head, and each head being valued at from $10,000 to $12,000. The cargo composed 100,000 pounds of whale bone. The taking of a whale is attended with none of the terrors of the picture books, and Boege has never seen a boat's load of whalers upset by one of these leviathans of the deep. On the pulpit of the Congregational church last Sunday. Mrs. Overton is attending the State Sunday School Convention at Los Angeles. The public school had an increase of five pupils Monday morning.

He was a member of the crew of the steamer Newport during this time, having been three winters and four summers with that vessel. The vessel returned with ten whale heads, the bone of the whale being taken only from the head, and each head being valued at from $10,000 to $12,000. The cargo composed 100,000 pounds of whale bone. The taking of a whale is attended with none of the terrors of the picture books, and Boege has never seen a boat's load of whalers upset by one of these leviathans of the deep. On the contrary, according to our informant, the capture of a whale is nothing more than a bit of rare sport, and so far from there being any danger from the whale, the latter is cowardly and will make off before the boat's crew is within harpooning distance, unless the whalers have a care and approach him cautiously. Whales swim about the Arctic sea in schools, and their presence is denoted by the spurts of water coming from them. A whale may lie motionless upon the surface for fifteen minutes, sending up a spurt of water occasionally. In traveling he rises to the surface, sends up several spurts of water, and then dives down only to reappear again at some distance off, to go through the same performance. When the hunter sees a whale the ship is started in his direction, and when within a short distance of him a boat is lowered and the crew start after him. He must be approached cautiously from directly in front or from rear. Approaching him from the side, he might catch a glimpse of his pursuers, and he would be off before it takes to tell it. The whale's eyes are set low in his head, and he must turn up sideways to use his optic effectually with his pursuers. When the boat's load have come up alongside the whale, which generally measures from 80 to 100 feet, he is harpooned, and simultaneously a charge of high explosive, attached to the harpoon, is fired, and if the shot strikes well, it is all over with Mr. Whale. Sometimes three or four bombs, as the explosive is termed, are necessary. The steamer comes alongside and the whale is hoisted on board. Here the head is severed from the body, and the remainder is cast back in the sea. Sometimes several whales are seen in a day, and again one is not seen in a month. The Newport was cruising near the Point Barrow shore in September, 1897, when the gathering ice warned the whalers of the danger of becoming icebound. The vessel essayed to put out into the open ocean, but was caught in the ice when four miles out and bound in for the winter. The ice froze from 8 to 10 feet deep. Snow was 14 feet deep, and the thermometer ranged from 45 to 60 degrees below zero. The Bear relief expedition came up to the imprisoned whalers in the middle of last July, having traveled some three months in dog sleds overland from St. Michaels. Notwithstanding the whalers were ice-bound during the entire winter, which was one of the coldest ever known in the Arctic, men did not suffer for lack of food, fish having been caught in the spring and kept on ice, and deer being plentiful in those northern latitudes. The boys played baseball and football, and when the weather was too cold for outdoor exercise, they played cards on shipboard. Boege returns in good health, and in company of his brother Ed has been making the rounds telling his old-time friends of his experiences in the far north. Major E. F. C. Klokke is trying an experiment with his lemon grove. He has been letting the trees suffer some for water through the early fall to prevent blossoming, and will now water them. The trees will start at once a profuse bloom, and if they set all right Major expects to have a big crop just when lemons are short, in the late spring and summer. I. N. Chapman was down from Los Angeles on Saturday last, the guest of Geo. B. Key. Cabbage setting is in full blast this week. Quite an acreage will be set. J. M.

Capt. Wrede was in town yesterday day afternoon, suffering some of the effects of a runaway accident near the bridge over the Santa Ana river on Friday morning last. The wind was blowing at the time, and the Captain's mare took fright at a tumble-weed that was blown against her legs. He was thrown out of the buggy, landing on his head and being partly stunned. The mare ran a short distance and then returned to where the Captain lay. He soon recovered sufficiently to proceed on his way. He sustained severe bruises about the head and shoulders. The total vote in the county on the amendments is as follows: Amendment No. 1—For 578, against 1383. No. 2—Yes 981, no 1087. No. 3—Yes 950, no 995. No. 4—Yes 817, no 1067. No. 5—Yes 1048, no 927.

For instance, amendment No. 1, which both Democrats and Republicans advised voting against, was carried by a 4 to 1 vote, while Nos. 4 and 5, which they advised voting for, have scant majorities.

McKinlay a fortnight ago Mr. Fay, who presided, had the bad luck to lose a walking cane which he had carried for years and which he regards as of more value for its association's sake than for its intrinsic value. It was procured in Cologne, Germany, has a white buckhorn handle, and is prized highly by the owner. When Mr. Fay arose to introduce Mr. McKinley he handed the cane to Billy Hale, who later laid it upon a chair on the stage. After the meeting Mr. Fay forgot all about the cane, and when he returned to look for it the next day it was gone. A liberal reward will be offered for its return.

Nothing has been heard nature from Nevada author- A special train of three cars, having on board J. A. Muir, D. Burkhalter and James Agler, Superintendent of division S. P. R. R.; Thos. Ahern, P. Goulden, James Doyle and C. E. Stephens, roadmasters; W. G. Curtis, Engineer of Maintenance and Way; P. Sheedy, Master Mechanic, Los Angeles; C. E. Donnatin, Supply Agent, and W. C. Ambrose, Assistant Chief Engineer, arrived at the Southern Pacific depot on Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock, for the purpose of paying the station presided over by Agent Darling its yearly inspection visit. Everything about the depot was found to be in apple-pie order, and Agent Darling has great hopes of securing the gold medal offered by the company once a year for the best kept depot premises on its line. After inspecting the depot the train went to Alamitos, having previously inspected the depots at Tustin and Santa Ana. The inspection trip embraces all stations between San Francisco and El Paso, and all the division superintendents are picked up on the way and taken with the train. The Pasadena agent has been awarded the gold medal for two years in succession, and Agent Darling states that white he has not yet succeeded in capturing the medal, he is comforted in the reflection that he was once awarded a prize of $20 for loading cars up to the limit of their capacity. The company offered a number of such prizes for the cars most scientifically loaded, and our fellow-townsman was awarded one of them. It was at first thought that Supt. Krutschmidt would be one of the party, but he failed to arrive. The party of distinguished railroad officials pulled out for Los Angeles shortly after noon.

McCollum has erected a ten-light Acetylene gas machine in the rear yard of his bicycle emporium, and is generating a superior quality of gas, which costs him half a cent per light per hour. The gasometer is five feet high, made of tin, circular in form and two feet in diameter. The manner of making gas is the well-known Acetylene process, now coming generally into use, gas being generated by the precipitation of water upon calcium carboid. The generator has a capacity of ten pounds of carboid, and each pound produces five cubic feet of gas. Each burner consumes half a foot of gas per hour, and makes a splendid white light of 25 candle-power, the cost of each light being reckoned at half a cent per hour. Mac will install ten lights. The gasometer and accompanying apparatus was constructed by Harry Bundy. The store was lighted with ten of the new gas-burners on Tuesday evening, and many were the favorable comments passed upon them. The gas furnishes a bright, white light, burns without a flicker, is easy to read by, and its cheapness ought to bring it into general use. Mr. McCollum will go into the manufacture of these gas machines. He carries a full line of bicycles, including the Stormer, Rambler, Crescent and Stearns.

I am very pleased to state that since I took the agentoy for Chamberlain's medicines the sale has been very large, more especially of the Cough Remedy. In two years I have sold more of this particular remedy than of all other makes for the previous five years. As to its efficacy, I have been informed by scores of persons of the good results they have received form it, and know its value from the use of it in my own household. It is so pleasant to take we have to put the bottle beyond the reach of the children. E. J. SCANTLEBURY. For sale by Derge. nov
