It used to be a common occurrence for a couple of the electric street arc lights to burn out each week; that was before the present efficient electrician, Mr. Byers, took charge of the works. Besides the aggravation of the flickering out of these lights, which seemed to be never ending and interminable, the cost to the city in order to replace them is estimated at about $2 each. Sixteen dollars per month was about the average expense to the municipality for arcs burned out through pure incompetency—a nice sum to be figured up at the end of the year. When Mr. Byers took charge of the works, a year and a half ago, finding the powerhouse in anything but the best of shape, he lost three arc lights during the first two weeks of his administration, and he lost two more during the next five weeks. Since that time he has not lost a single arc light by the burning-out process. It is probable that had he found the works in as complete order as they are today, not a single arc light would have been burned out.
Before his administration the city and the contractors putting in the plant, were put to the expense of rewinding fifteen transformers, at an average price of $15 each. During his first week, three transformers, which were well on the way to an end of their earthly career, burned out on him. Since that time in nearly a year and a half, he has not lost a single transformer nor should one, barring accidents, be lost in like manner during the next five years.
Before Mr. Byers' coming there were on hand some 2000 rejected carbons, costing the city about $26 per thousand, which the engineer in charge could not use. They were cast aside, and new ones ordered. When Byers took charge of the works he took them up and used every one of them—and they gave excellent light, too. This was the difference between competency and incompetency.
Mr. Byers has been eight years in the electrical business, and fourteen years an engineer, having served his apprenticeship under one of the most mammoth addition the carpenters are making to the cannery building, under the control of that gentleman, it would probably come to the conclusion that its informant in that case was quite as wide of the mark as in the present instance.
GETTING A HORSE FOR HIS KEEP.
A friend of mine, an eccentric literary character in the north of Ireland, was putting the finishing touch to a scientific article on which he had been laboring for weeks, and, not wishing to be disturbed by visitors, told his servant to tell anyone who might happen to call that he was not at home, or to give them some other equivocal answer. At night my friend asked his servant if anyone had called.
"Yes, sir. A gentleman waited to know if you were at home."
"And what did you say to him, John?"
"I said what you bid me, sir."
"And what was that?"
"I gave him a quivocal answer. I axed him if his grandmother was a monkey."
You would have been repulsed with an observation similar, if not worse, if you had the impudence to ask for a horse for his keep four or five years ago but a wonderful change has taken place since then. Today if you go to a farmer and ask for a horse for his keep, he is very likely to ask you to dinner or to ask you to test the efficiency of an irrigating plant, usually kept corked, in the coolest part of the barn. Horses you get for their keeping always leave their old homes with a reluctant, leisurely step. They all seem to know the conditions on which they are going away, and have a sort of premonition that they are never coming back; this makes them sad and melancholy. I don't blame the poor dumb creatures. I feel that way myself sometimes, when I sigh for "the touch of a vanished hand" or a gurgling sound that is still; and why can't a horse as well as I ruminate on the saying, "You know where you are, but you don't know where you are going."
Horses that I have got for their keep have all been exceptions to the rule, however; for sooner or later they all found their way home again. None of them, yes, I venture to say, not one in a thousand, ever found its way home like my last venture. But I shall keep this for the climax of the story. About three months ago, running short of horse flesh and taking advantage of my neighbor's pasture running short too, I went to get a horse for his keep. My neighbor, whose name, by the way, is Jersey, was delighted to see me, that after he knew my business came to my place for a horse for keep, and the next morning you saw him home without a hair on his head and an old milk can stuck on his head.
I began to explain, but no use.
"It's the last horse, or anything you'll ever get from me for their kinsel and ever since then Jersey Hardscrape doesn't know me when he meets me."
Did I ever get the milk can be again? Never, but it wasn't of my account anyway, besides I only had loan of it from Carl Raab.

Before Mr. Byers' coming there were on hand some 2000 rejected car-bons, costing the city about $26 per thousand, which the engineer in charge could not use. They were cast aside, and new ones ordered. When Byers took charge of the works he took them up and used every one of them—and they gave excellent light, too. This was the difference between competency and incompetency.
Mr. Byers has been eight years in the electrical business, and fourteen years an engineer, having served his apprenticeship under one of the most noted engineers in the country. He has not cost the city a cent in burned-out transformers or are lights, since he got the works in running order, a year and a half ago; and engineers who have visited the power-house pronounce the works the neatest and best kept in Southern California.
The news that he has tendered his resignation, on account of the adoption of a set of ridiculous rules, dividing the responsibility at the power-house, has not been accepted in kindly spirit by the citizens of the municipality. But there seems to exist in certain quarters the idea that Byers "has got to go;" although his going will be at the expense of the service. Why a capable electrician should be in effect asked for his resignation is altogether past finding out. Certainly nothing that Byers has done entitles him to such cavalier treatment at the hands of the city authorities.
THE Anaheim correspondent of the Los Angeles Times, writing to that paper on Friday last, pens the following item—which is important if true:
ANAHEIM, April 12—Walnut-growers, now that all danger of frost is practically over, are beginning to take stock of their prospects and find it possible to do so with intelligence and more appearance of certainty than usual at this season. Several reports indicate that the nurses are more likely to be of choice than last year, though there will not be as many of them. Last year there were too many on the trees to mature to the best advantage. The limbs were loaded with nuts and nearly all trees had props beneath them. This year it does not appear that there are more than two-thirds of foliage; and as nuts the size of a nutmeg will not be common before the latter part of next month, and the crop will not mature before October, this item concerning the size and the quality of the crop is, as we say, quite important if true. Nut trees, moreover, stand in little if any peril of frost; the frost's time limit expires while yet the trees are for the most part absolutely denuded of foliage. It is rather the warm wave of August, after which estimates of the size and quality of the crop are best made, that gives rise to apprehension. But the grower who takes stock of his walnuts in April has very little before him to base calculations upon; and if his trees have "two-thirds as many nuts as last-year" they are
Horses that I have got for their keep have all been exceptions to the rule, however; for sooner or later they all found their way home again. None of them, yes, I venture to say, not one in a thousand; ever found its way home like my last venture. But I shall keep this for the climax of the story. About three months ago, running short of horse flesh and taking advantage of my neighbor's pasture running short too, I went to get a horse for his keep. My neighbor, whose name by the way, is Jersey, was delighted to see me, that is, after he knew my business.
"How was I making it; and was my wife better of the measles; and had I escaped the grip?"
On hearing of the latter I couldn't help shivering involuntarily. My friend Jersey noticed it, and at once suggested an inspection of his irrigation plant, in the barn, which resulted in the life giving effect that always accompanies irrigation in a dry year. From the barn we went to inspect the horses, and on the way to the pasture, which, by the way, had been vainly trying to penetrate the hardscrabble fields for the last three months, I took occasion to explain to Jersey the sort of horse that suited me. In the first place he must be very gentle, for I was very nervous. In the second place, owing to my wife having the measles, I could only make short trips from home, but they required to be made quick, so the horse must be fast. In the third place, as a man is often judged by his horse, I did not want the wags of Anaheim to label him as they do Pfeninger's horse, "Hay wanted, enquire within."
"Well," says Jersey, "how would you like the family pet?"
"All right," says I, and I felt delighted inwardly for I says to myself: he's going to give me a fine surrey horse; what a dash I'll cut at the creamery, and what a dash you'll all make for their milk cans when they see me turning the corner. In a minute more we stood before the "family pet."
"His name is Tom," says Jersey.
"Well Jersey," says I, "that horse is worth $150 spot cash to a veterinary surgeon."
"How is that?" asked Jersey.
"Well," says I, "you can see his vermiform appendix through his ribs, and you can observe all the different phases of appendicitis, if he ever takes it without making any incisions, and no matter what he does, no post mortem examination will be necessary to determine the cause of his death."
Then my friend Jersey began, and it would crowd every ad out of the Gazette if I repeated all he said:
"The horse had been imported from the East. His sire was Augustine II, and his mother Cleopatra, the celebrated New York pacer. Governor Gage offered $300 for him when he was a colt, but feed was cheap and money couldn't buy him. He's as gentle as a kitten, and if you're not in hurry, he'll slow down to a three-minute gait and keep it up as long as you are able to sit in the buggy."
This last insinuation had the effect of inducing another involuntary shiver. So to cut things short I made a near cut to the barn, I hauling "Tom" and Jersey prodding him in the rear with a spade handle.
Well, we got home, Tom and I, but not without several altercations on the road. Not a trot could I get out of him. At last I lost my temper. "Do you think I stole ye?" says I, "or come by you dishonestly, you old scare crow? It's to the soap factory we ought to be going, we walking skeleton; but first of all I'll see about your three-minute hand." or a gurgling sound that is still and why can't a horse as well as I imitate on the saying. "You know where you are, but you don't know where you are going."
Horses that I have got for their keep have all been exceptions to the rule, however; for sooner or later they all found their way home again. None of them, yes, I venture to say, not one in a thousand; ever found its way home like my last venture. But I shall keep this for the climax of the story.

crop will not mature before October,
this item concerning the size and the quality of the crop is, as we say, quite important if true. Nut trees, moreover, stand in little if any peril of frost; the frost's time limit expires while yet the trees are for the most part absolutely denuded of foliage. It is rather the warm wave of August, after which estimates of the size and quality of the crop are best made, that gives rise to apprehension. But the grower who takes stock of his walnuts in April has very little before him to base calculations upon; and if his trees have "two-thirds as many nuts on them as last year," they are considerably ahead of the season, to be sure—about as far ahead as the La Habra farmer who had ripe pears two months ago!
Further along in the "correspondence" we read:
A band of 600 sheep was sold this morning by a Garden Grove rancher at 410 per head. The band is to be shipped to Wyoming.
As mutton is worth about 9 cents per pound, and a sheep averages dressed about 50 pounds, the purchaser of the band must have paid rather a fancy price for his stock. When we consider further that there are no sheep at Garden Grove, and that Wyoming has little need of importing sheep from Southern California, we note the further improbability of the item. Verily one sees strange things in print nowadays.
The city band gave a largely attended street concert this afternoon.
On account of the death of Freddie Sonnen, whose funeral occurred on Sunday afternoon, the band concert was postponed to a future date.
The Los Angeles Record of Tuesday evening comes to hand with the following:
The Southern Pacific will not run its line through Anaheim and establish a depot in the center of the town without having to contest every foot of its proposed extension. The property owners along the surveyed route do not take kindly to the company's terms and already one condemnation suit has been brought by the railroad company.
The Record cannot have read THE GAZETTE attentively during the past fortnight, else it would have seen that the right of way in town had been practically secured. The Record a few days since made the announcement that Mr. Weisel had not purchased the cannery, but if it could see the
Well, we got home, Tom and I, but not without several alterations on the road. Not a trot could I get out of him. At last I lost my temper. "Do you think I stole ye?" says I, "or come by you dishonestly, you old scarce crow? It's to the soap factory ye ought to be going, ye walking skeleton; but first of all I'll see about your three-minute gait, for whatever else Jersey may be, he's a man of truth. So I laid it on to Tom and then Tom laid on to the dashboard of the buggy with his two hind feet, smashing it into kindling wood. We got home at last and Tom was duly staked in my alfalfa patch, and since that night there has never been the track of a gopher seen on that alfalfa. My theory is, that when they came out of their holes they hadn't time to get back again until Tom had them gobbled up. Talk about the new steam mowing machines, that alfalfa field reminded me of the riddle, "Now you see it and now you don't. What is it?"
The next morning I tied Tom in the barn preparatory to hitching him up for the creamery. In three minutes the neighborhood was startled by a sound like the passing of a freight train en route to the beet factory, but it was only the barn that Tom had pulled down over him and around him. After two hours hard work with the help of my neighbors I got him extricated, but as I was looking for the harness Tom began prowling around the yard and finally brought up at the milk can, which had been standing in the water trough ready for the creamery. Well, Tom got his nose in it. I yelled at him, but it was of no use. I then ran and caught him by the mane. He raised his head, but the milk can had stuck fast to it; then he got excited, raised his head higher, and then all the milk streamed over his neck and breast. This made him more excited still, and in less than five seconds he was out of the yard at a full gallop, the milk can still on his head, and his destination, evidently, his old home.
The next day I met Jersey on his way from Anaheim, and the first thing he said was:
"I always took you for a gentleman."
"And have you changed your opinion?" asked I.
"Can you blame me?" says he. "You

He told her she was a hopeless victim of consumption and that no medicine could cure her.

"The Eastern States will have very little deciduous fruit this year. The winter just coming to a close was most destructive to their orchards. Many of the trees were killed, and for a number of years the orchards there will, under the most favorable circumstances, produce a small percentage of former crops. In the meantime Eastern people will draw on this State very heavily for their fruit. I think the outlook good for big prices for our orchardists, and I believe we will send to the East nearly 10,000 carloads. This will mean millions of dollars for California."
As one of the curiosities of freight traffic, Mr. Sproule mentions the fact that the potato supply of California, Utah and Nevada is exhausted and that large shipments are being made from Oregon and Wisconsin. He also says that 300 carloads of celery have gone East lately from Southern California.
In line with the recent predictions of fruit growers that, thanks to her recent rains, California will come very near supplying the nation with the products of her superabundant orchards, is a recent interview with Secretary Filcher of the State Board of trade. Says Mr. Filcher:
"There is no question that the demand for California fruit this year will overmeasure the quantity on hand. The reports from the interior show that the prospects are of a splendid character. It is not unlikely that the whole country will look to California for the greatest amount of its fruit."
Florida has suffered disastrously from frost. Georgia, which shipped 2000 carloads of peaches last year, has scarcely anything to show this season, and New Jersey and Delaware, foremost peach States of the East, are in sad straits. Even Michigan has had a hard time, and so have other States from which a large supply was ex-

Even Michigan has had a hard time, and so have other States from which a large supply was expected.
"It is rather too early to say with any approach to accuracy what the California fruits may bring in the market. The local firms have not yet made up their selling list. We know something of peaches in the East, but there are apples to be counted very little. It is a fact that many buyers for Eastern houses are here, but they are devoting themselves to a 'size-up' of the situation, rather than to anything more serious in the mercantile line. From our reports it seems that they are offering about the same price that prevailed last year, but their early activity may mean something interesting."

LONDON, April 16—The Paris correspondent of the Daily Mail, recounting an interview he had with Madame Emma Nevada, the first operatic singer who has visited Spain since the war, says:
Madame Nevada's managers had arranged an operatic tour, but on the first night, at Seville, though the house was bought up, the curtain rose on empty seats. The opera was "Lucia di Lammermoor." In the second act all the elite arrived together, but turned their backs to the stage and talked ostensibly till the end of the opera, when on returning to acknowledge a burst of applause, Nevada was roundly hissed.
At Madrid the Queen Regent was informed of the occurrence. Her majesty invited Nevada to a soiree at the palace, and presented to her a diamond and sapphire bracelet. Nevada arrived here in a state of the greatest indignation.

Growers and Traffic Agents Are Preparing for Big Business.
The large orchardists of California are making arrangements to handle what they think will be an exceptionally large deciduous fruit crop this year. Shipments to the east to the extent of about 5000 carloads is the best record in any one year for this State, and it is predicted by many men interested in the business that this will be the banner year with 10,000 cars.

Walnut Culture.
An interesting pamphlet of forty-four pages, with many illustrations, on the California walnut industry, has been issued from the State printing office. It is written by B. M. Lelong, secretary of the State Board of Horticulture, who has evidently devoted much study to an investigation of the subject.
In giving the origin of the walnut industry in this state, Mr. Lelong mentions some interesting facts in regard to old walnut groves, from which it appears that as long ago as 1847 there were large walnut trees growing in Los Angeles, which could not have been less than 20 years old. It is probable, therefore, that the walnut was introduced by the Mission fathers.
The writer of the pamphlet shows that, in Persia, the tree comes into bearing at eight years from the planting of the seed, in Italy and Spain in about sixteen years, in Southern France in about eighteen years, in England in twenty-four years, and in California in eight years, the same as in Persia. He therefore concludes that the southern part of this state is nearest to its home.
The walnut is not a tree which will grow in any kind of soil. This has been proved by many horticulturists in Southern California, who have sought

To raise walnuts in locations that are not well adapted to the growth of the tree. The soil most recommended for walnut culture is a rich deep sandy loam, with good drainage, and from 16 to 18 feet to surface water. On the other hand, George W. Ford, of Santa Ana, has 20-year-old walnut trees which are thrifty and bearing heavy crops every year in land where the surface water is only three feet below. It would not, however, be wise to follow this example extensively, as it is contrary to the general experience of those who have set out walnut trees.
Reference is made in the pamphlet no cases where walnut trees, planted on the sites of forest trees, have died, because the roots of the forest trees had not been entirely removed. It has been proven that poisonous gases are generated by such roots, in quantities so kill roots of the walnut, with which they come in contact.
Robbed the Grave.
A startling incident, of which Mr. John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subject, is narrated by him as follows: I was in a most dreadful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continually in back and sides, no appetite—gradually growing weaker day by day. Three physicians had given me up. Fortunately, a friend advised trying 'Electric Bitters'; and to my great joy and surprise, the first bottle made a decided improvement. I continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they saved my life, and robbed the grave of another victim." No one should fail to try them. Only 50c., guaranteed, at P. A. Derge's Drug Store.

INDIAN AND TIGER.
A Clever Trick by Which the Former Outwitted the Latter.
According to a good and true tiger story in Cornhill, an Indian who had learned some of the elementary principles of jugglery and contortion went out one evening to walk upon a ridgy plain. When he reached the top of one of the mounds, he saw a tiger ahead of him, 500 or 600 yards away. Before the man could hide behind a mound the tiger had seen him and began to bound toward him at its topmost speed.
Having no means of defense, there was nothing for the man to do but to race for the nearest tree, but though he tried it and put forth his utmost strength the tiger steadily gained upon him.
What was he to do? In sheer desperation he resolved upon an unusual scheme. Just as he disappeared for an instant from the tiger's sight in running over a ridge he halted, stretched out his legs at right angles, curled down his head so as to look between his legs to the rear and extended his arms upward in a fantastic manner, like the sails of a windmill.
In a few seconds the tiger hove in sight, and at that instant the face of the object assumed a hideous grimace. A prolonged yell arose, such as had perhaps never before pierced the ear of any tiger, and the sails of the windmill began to revolve backward and forward as if a sudden whirlwind had burst upon the scene.
The tiger recoiled. What, he evidently thought, is this? There stood a ferocious star shaped monster, gigantic against the sky. Its hideous head was situated in the very center of its body—nay, its viselike jaws, between which those flendish roars were issuing, were actually placed above its two fiery eyes. Its limbs were furiously clamoring for action, and the man he had been chasing, where was he? Already devoured by this terrible beast? The tiger could not pause to reflect. He turned tail, and as he disappeared over a friendly ridge a last awful yell caused him to redouble his pace. He was conquered by the unknown.
