SNAP SHOTS AT THE NEWS Trouble has again broken out over the distribution of the water of Kings river. The difficulty dates back from the time when the claim was made that the Fresno Canal and Irrigation company was taking more water than was its due. The farmers of the southern part of Fresno county accordingly assembled on the sands of Kings river and turned the water in the Seventy-six ditch by building a dam of bowlers. So quickly was the work done that the Fresno Canal and Irrigation company had no time to prevent it. A force of Chinese, under the protection of armed guards, cleared out the small dam thrown across Kings river last spring by the Reedley Ranchers, and now there are threats from these parties that the dam will be replaced in short order. A fortnight ago the Canal company secured an injunction prohibiting the people from in any way interfering with the water of Kings river and ordering them not to molest the persons who might in future be sent by the Canal company to remove the quickly constructed dam. Last week armed with this injunction, the canal officials gathered their forces, and after a few hours’ work little remained of the dam. The Fresno Canal and irrigation company declares it will maintain a sufficient force at the scene of last season’s disturbance to maintain what they believe to be their rights in the distribution of Kings river water. The curious coincidence occurring in Santa Barbara county at the late election, by which the vote for Sheriff resulted in a tie of precisely 2006 votes for each of the two candidates, Nat Stewart of Lompoc and the incumbent, Thomas H. Hicks, recalls the curious conditions under which Hicks originally came into possession of the office. Robert Broughton had for many years served the people of the county in the capacity of sheriff, and had gained a name for efficiency and courage probably exceeding that of any other officer in Southern California. His popularity was such that, although opposing candidates were named against him as a matter of formality at every election, every one knew that no one had a chance to win but Broughton, the regular Republican nominee, and he invariably had heavy majorities. He was re-elected to office in the fall of '94 for the newly extended term of four years, but died on the morning of Sunday, the 31st of December, one day before entering upon his new term, of heart failure. There were many candidates for the dead sheriff’s position. According to law the power of appointment lay with the board of supervisors. INDIAN ARISTOCRATS Thousand-Acre Farms Supplemented by Cash Income of Each Member of the Family. WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.—The Osage Indians are probably the wealthiest people per capita on earth, are aristocrats and scorn manual labor, according to General Pollock’s annual report to the Interior Department. They own over 800 acres of land for each man, woman and child, each receiving an annuity of over $200 in cash. As an illustration, if an Indian and his wife have eight children, the annual cash income of the family is over $2000. Rather leading his white brother in this respect he prefers the conveniences, luxuries and dissipations of village to agricultural avocation, he likes to sing and dance and he has plenty of money to support his family in idleness. Indian Agent Stephens of the Crow Creek reports that a serious nuisance and detriment to progress, to correct which agents would have to co-operate is inter-tribal visiting, demoralizing to the Indians, encouraging idleness and nomadic habits, abandonment of the crops, reckless distribution of property as presents and neglect of stock. Action to minimize this mischief is urged. Captain Cornish of the Uintah and Ouray agency in Utah complains in his report that there never has been any determination of the claim of the Uncompaghre, White river and Southern Utes on account of the cession of about 8,000,000 acres of land to the United States under a treaty of 1880 in consideration of certain benefits. The treaty required that the land should be subject to cash entry only, and that the proceeds after reimbursement to the United States for sums appropriated and set aside in the Ute act, and paying for the lands which might be ceeded to the Utes by the United States outside of their reservations at $1.25 per acre, should be deposited to their credit in the treasury, the interest payable to the Utes annually with the rest of the annuity money. This claim has not been settled and no statement made as to the amount of money collected for this land. The agent says: "It does not appear that the United States has ceded any lands outside of their reservation; if the late Uncompaghre reservation is considered to have been so ceded, it has practically again been absorbed by the United States. I believe the government has apportioned from this Colorado land a large timber reserve, for which it seems to me the Indians are justly entitled to pay. The matter should be carefully investigated." The dental of the rights of these Indians to hunt in their old reservation $129,596,246 in excess of exportations. In only one other year in the decade have the ten months ending with October shown an excess of imports of gold over the exports, that occasion being in 1896, when the excess of imports was $37,085,861. In all other years from 1888 to 1898, the October returns showed for the ten months of the calendar year an excess of exports of gold over the imports of that article, that of 1895 being $43,247,360, and 1894, $72,808,322. This unprecedented flow of gold into the United States is accounted for in part at least by the enormous balance of trade in this country’s favor, which the ten months of the year have afforded. In those ten months the total imports of merchandise amounted to only $527,557,554, while the total exports were $987,964,356, a favorable balance of trade of $430,796,802. The total exports of merchandise for the month of October, 1898, amounted to $118,686,232, a sum larger than in any preceding October in the history of the country, the figures for October, 1897, being $111,-744,517 and those for October, 1896,$113,516,586. The enormous importation of gold in excess of the exportation is plainly perceptible in the increased circulation shown by the figures of the Treasury Department. The latest statement of the gold in the Treasury shows a balance of $242,805,604 while the gold in circulation on November 1 was $649,-846,727 being $110,000,000 greater than on November 1 of last year, and nearly $200,000,000 more than on July 1, 1896 in which month it touched the lowest point in several years. The total money in circulation at the beginning of the present month is shown by the Treasury officials to have been $1,866,585,782 against $1,706,732,904 at the corresponding date last year,and $1,208,725,200 on July 1. 1896,the increase in circulation in the last year having been $159,842,878,and since July 1，1896，$356，850，582. ANAHEIM CANNERY. kind Words Concerning It From an Ontario Paper—Co-operation. From the Ontario Record. The California Cultivator has this following: "The directors of the Anaheim cooperative cannery are so well pleased with the outcome of their first year' business that they are talking greatly increasing its capacity and issuing more treasury stock." It is always a pleasure tothe Observerto heraldthe successofa co-operative enterprise. We have workedforyearto makea successofthe Southern California Fruit Exchange,a co-operative." There is some excitement at Cornell University at Ithaca, N.Y., over the elopement of a sub-freshman and the pretty wife of E. B. Kay, an instructor in the institution. E. D. Mooers, a young man from Los Angeles, Cal., studying in the university preparatory school to enter Cornell next year, with an income said to be $500 a month in his own right, spent money with a lavish hand, champagne dinners being common. Mooers was fond of the society of ladies. He became enamored of the wife of instructor Kay, a little blue-eyed woman. Staying with her was a young woman said to be her niece. A young student named Millard of Binghamton, a bosom friend of Mooers, went in her society. The quartet planned a trip to New York. In the meantime some one had wired to Millard's father in Binghamton of his son's rapid pace, and the father went to Ithaca at once. He sat in the office of the hotel and watched for his boy. His vigil was rewarded by seeing him alight from a cab in front of the cafe opposite. Within the cab was the remainder of the party. The angry father seized his boy by the coat collar and dragged him away from the rest of the party, paid the boy's bills and took him home to Binghamton. Mooers took the woman to the station and they boarded the New York train. Instructor Kay had in the meantime gotten wind of the affair, and started to the station after his wife. He got there before the train left, and taking hold of her, managed to get her away, but a moment later she ran from him, entered the train and sought the protection of Mooers. Then there ensued a scene between the two men, with the result that Kay was forcibly ejected from the train as it pulled out of the station, while his wife stayed aboard. The four elopers had drunk considerable wine before the episode took place. The year 1898 shows an immense increase in the gold output of the world. This is the gold production for 1898 as estimated: South Africa $75,000,000, Australia $65,000,000, United States $60,000,000, Russia $30,000,000, other countries $45,000,000. Total $275,000,000. The Klondike data is most interesting. The exact figures, as they have come to the Director of the United States Mint, are $10,056,270. Of this $5,070,000 was handled by the assay office at Seattle, and $4,985,270 was turned in for coinage at the San Francisco mint. The Klondike production will exceed the figures now available by probably $2,000,000. Last spring Roberts estimated the output as between $10,-000,000 and $12,000,000. Facts bear Some people in the world persist in clinging to old methods. There are men who still use a forked stick in place of a modern plow. There are also men, who when they are troubled with a disordered stomach or liver, resort to the old-fashioned violent remedies that rack and rend the whole body, and while they give temporary relief, in the long run do the entire system a great amount of harm. Modern science has discovered remedies infinitely superior to these old-fashioned drugs, that do their work by promoting the natural processes of excretion and secretion and gently correcting all circulatory disturbances. When a man feels generally out of sorts, when he loses sleep at night, when he gets up headache and with a bad taste in his mouth in the morning, when he feels dull and lethargic all day, when his appetite is poor and his food distresses him, when work comes hard and recreation is an impossibility, that man, though he may not believe it is a pretty sick man. It does not appear that the United States has ceded any lands outside of their reservation; if the late Uncomahre reservation is considered to have been so ceded, it has practically again been absorbed by the United States. I believe the government has apportioned from this Colorado land a large timber reserve, for which it seems to me the Indians are justly entitled to pay. The matter should be carefully investigated." The denial of the rights of these Indians to hunt in their old reservation in accordance with the Colorado game laws is complained of as an injustice and violation of their treaty rights, and the agent recommends securing through Congress some compensation for loss of the right. BALANCE OF TRADE Enormous Importation of Gold Into the United States During the Present Year. NEW YORK Nov. 18.—A dispach from Washington says: The importations of gold into the United States in the year 1898 are by far largest in the history of the country, and the exportations are the smallest in many years, while the production of gold from American mines will prove the largest in many years, if not the largest in the country's annals. The October statement of imports and exports just issued by the treasury bureau of statistics shows that the total imports of gold in the ten months ending October 31, 1898, are $143,658,985 which is more than 50 per cent in excess of the amount imported in the corresponding period of any preceding year. The exports in that time have been only $14,061,849 which is less than in the corresponding months of any preceding year for more than a decade. This gives the enormous balance of Kind Words Concerning It From an Ontario Paper—Co-operation. The California Cultivator has the following: "The directors of the Anaheim cooperative cannery are so well pleased with the outcome of their first year" business that they are talking of greatly increasing its capacity." It is now upon a foundation of public support and approval as solid as the rock of ages. The latest returns indicate that in this colony on Ontario-Cueamonga Fruit Exchange will ship during the next season over 80 per cent of the entire citrus produce. In the whole of Southern California the exchange has gained for the coming season about 20 per cent more than whole crop than it controlled last year, making its percentage of the entire output now about one-half. The day has arrived when for the protection of the producer it is necessary to cut out the profits of the middle men. The railroads are appropriating such a large portion of the revenue from the industry that if large profits were paid to the scalpers there would be nothing left for the grower. A cooperative cannery has all three virtues of every co-operative scheme but it is not an industry in which they is as much promise for success in cooperation as in many others. The Southern California Fruit Exchange aims to control the whole citrus fruit output and is in its nature a monopoly. There is no trouble with public control of natural monopsies and it is a state of affairs toward which the world is gradually dwrifting. In smaller co-operative enterprises there is opportunity for the play of art and prejudices, jealousies and eccentricities of human nature among the co-operators. Bandel together on an equal footing, there is not the orgasmization and discipline demanded for efficient work. Working in a circumscribed field, the small co-operative concern cannot keep in touch with the market. It has not the fund of information that daily flows into the head offices of this larger establishments to be used for shaping the course of business. The ark, co-operation, when cast upon them sea of competition must be braced and stayed with all the beams and iron sound business principles and good economy. If there be a single weep point in the whole construction it cannot to founder. It will be wrecked in the fierce tempests of business pressures and cast a derelict upon those rocks of financial ruin. But we are pleased at the success of the Anaheim cooperative cannery and hope sincerely that it may be more prosperous during this coming season than during this last. We hope that there may be new co-operative canneries established, and that in due time they may band together and grow and prosper till they people of this God-favored southern own and control every department within their new fruit industry. Fortunes From Bananas. Immense fortunes have been made out of the banana business. Revenue do not accrue alone from the sale of fruit; for the leaves are used for pancake; the juice, being strong in tannins makes an indulible ink and shoe blac This is the gold production for 1898 as estimated: South Africa $75,000,000, Australia $65,000,000, United States $60,000,000, Russia $30,000,000, other countries $45,000,000. Total $275,000,000. The Klondike is estimated at $12,000,000. The Klondike data is most interesting. The exact figures, as they have come to the Director of the United States Mint, are $10,056,270. Of this $5,070,000 was handled by the assay office at Seattle, and $4,985,270 was turned in for collage at the San Francisco mint. The Klondike production will exceed the figures now available by probably $2,000,000. Last spring Roberts estimated the output as between $10,-000,000 and $12,000,000. Facts bear him out, and also bear out the estimates of miners well informed on the subject. The Klondike is merely keeping step with the rest of the world. The production of gold is increasing at an astonishing rate, and there is good reason for the belief that the ratio of increase will be maintained for many years to come. "In 1897," says the Director of the Mint, "the world produced in gold $237,-000,000. For 1898 the output will reach $275,000,000. This is an increase of about 275 per cent over the production of 1890, when $118,000,000 was wrung from the soil. Of this tremendous production, South Africa easily leads with approximately $75,000,000; Australia with $65,000,000; United States $60,000,-000; Russia $30,000,000; and the remaining $45,000,000 distributed among the other nations of the earth. In all probabilities the output for 1899 will measure up to $300,000,000, and so far as human judgement is capable of discernment, this increase annually, at a fair ratio, will continue for many years, at least." A Sure Sign of Croup. Hoarseness in a child that is subject to croup is a sure indication of the approach of the disease. If Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is given as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even after the croupy cough has appeared, it will prevent the attack. Many mothers who have croupy children keep this remedy a hand and find that it saves them much trouble and worry. It can always be depended upon and is pleasant to take. For sale by P. A. Derge.

GUARDING THE MINT HOW THE PHILADELPHIA INSTITUTION IS PROTECTED. Little Chance For Any One to Get Bored Quickly by Helping Himself to Unam Sam's Treasure—Patrels, Revolvers and Winchesters In Plenty. Probably not one person out of a hundred who pass by the Philadelphia mint that grim looking edifice at Chestnut and Juniper streets, after nightfall reizes what is going on inside. There nothing mean about Unole Sam, but is determined that any one who goes his money shall get it honestly and process duly laid down. Therefore has taken all kinds of precautions properly protect, especially at night the millions upon millions piled up the vaults. The doors of the mint are closed every weekday promptly at 4 o'clock the afternoon. After that hour no but mint employees have any business within the walls which inclose so much money, and no one can either stay or get in without a special permit from the superintendent. Needless to say this is difficult to obtain. Simultaneously with the closing the doors at 4 o'clock the first shift the night guard goes on duty. The staff is composed of the captain of the guards and 11 stalwart men. As the men out to begin their round each month banded a big Cold's revolver of the most approved pattern and loaded with cartridges. From then on till midnight seven the 11 guards patrol without cessation every floor of the inside of the mint, for the corridors of the gloomy valleys where, away down in the earth, stowed eighty odd million dollars silver and almost as much gold, to top floor, where there is nothing valuable than machinery. Placed at quiet intervals throughout the corridor are electrical devices for enabling captain of the guard to keep tabs on men. Each of these little machines communicates with the rotunda opposite the Chestnut street entrance to mint. Here it is that the captain is stationed all through the long hours his shift. Every two minutes and half the central machine in the rooftop denotes the presence of some one of guard at some particular station in building.

East in geology, and yet he doubted if he could name the principal periods in their proper order. “Now let’s see how much you do know,” said one of the men. “How much is one divided by naught or nothing?” “One divided by nothing?” repeated the man at his right. “Why, that’s one. If one isn’t divided by anything, it remains one.” “I think the answer is nothing,” said another. “One divided by nothing is—nothing. Sure, that’s right.” “You’re the worst I ever heard,” said the man who had given the problem. “One divided by nothing—that means how many times is nothing contained in one. It is contained an infinite number of times, and the correct answer is—infinity.” Then he had to talk to them five minutes in order to convince them.—Chicago Record. The Heliograph. With all its superiority in distances the heliograph is too uncertain for sole reliance. A passing cloud is sufficient to interrupt the clearest signals, perhaps in the critical moment of a battle, or a sun haze may render invisible the rays from the largest mirror, so that at any time without a clear atmosphere the system is useless. It is not known that the heliographic system has ever been in use on shipboard, and the sea service has nothing for daylight signaling that approaches its accomplishment in dry atmospheres. For night service at sea the flashlight appears to be the best system of signaling in all weatherers, though on rare occasions the long beam of the electric searchlight thrown up on the sky has proved effective for communication when it was possible by no other means. An instance of such use was reported a few years ago by two British ships, which while on opposite sides of a high promontory nine miles in width opened communication with each other by means of dot and dash flashes on the sky from their searchlights.—Lippinott’a.

Each of these little machines municates with the rotunda oppose Chestnut street entrance to mint.Here it is that the captain is tioned all through the long hour his shift. Every two minutes an half the central machine in the rooftop denotes the presence of some one of guard at some particular station in building. If it doesn’t then the train knows that something is written and immediately proceeds to dis- what it is. But it has been a long time since little machine failed to send forth announcement at the proper time;the mint guards are patrolling up down outside the big building;early watching that no suspicious characters approach too near the vast trees left in their care. Promptly at midnight the seafront of the night guard puts in as pearance to relieve the early shift is also composed of a captain and men,and they are split up,a as o quad,into inside and outside deter.From midnight on until o’clockthe morning they follow in the steps of the first shift,vith every uilty alert to catch an intruder.

For the revolvers there is kept stantly on hand in the mint 500 rods of ammunition,and for the rifles caribines2,500 rounds.Each of guards is an expert in use of one pistol,the pistol and the gun,and each dowsed with a plentiful stock of age; hence a combination capable successfully resisting almost any less than a regiment.
