The cool and cloudy weather that has prevailed so far during the summer has occasioned doubts in the minds of many as to the accuracy of the recent statement issued by the State Board of Trade, that the seasons are undergoing no change. Certain it is, that so far as the present season is concerned, the weather has experienced a most decided change; for never have we had such cool and cloudy weather so late in June. One horticulturist observed recently that if we should have had this kind of weather along in November or December, he would not look for rain, referring probably to the dryness of the winter; but having it in June he looked for rain nearly every day! A half-inch of rain two weeks ago found hundreds of acres of hay in the cock, and rendered necessary the uncooking of the entire lot. To beets, corn and pumpkins the rain proved beneficial, and those crops look extremely well. Many patches of green corn greet the eye on nearly every side, and the yield promises to be good. Fruit drying will be in season within the fortnight, and then the weather clerk, if he be wise, will desist from giving us further cloudiness, accompanied as it has been with mistiness and good imitations of rain, and give us our usual warm sunshine weather. The year's precipitation has amounted to 5.44 inches, while last year we had 5.32, marking two years of exceeding scant rainfall. The damp weather has so far occasioned but little damage, although some sections report the apricots and walnuts falling on account of the absence of the usual summer weather. Now, however, the approach of the fruit-drying season makes sunshine a necessity, and growers are hoping that the cloudy weather that has so far prevailed during this unusual season may be at an end. The School Trustees have under contemplation the addition of one teacher to the city grammar grade course and one to the high school for next term.

August Hemmerling and w hile THE School Trustees have under contemplation the addition of one teacher to the city grammar grade course and one to the high school for next term. Trustee Gardiner is furthermore of the opinion that the West Anaheim pupils who attend the grammar grades in town will be required next term to attend school at the West End, in order to partly relieve the crowded condition of the city schools. Forty pupils are figured upon as the maximum number to be allotted each teacher for the best results, but one of the grades at the central school has, for instance, 90 pupils; one has 70 and another between 50 and 60. The school has been overcrowded during the entire school year, and neither teachers nor pupils have been able to work to advantage. Five teachers are employed in the city schools, and two in the high school. If the purpose of the Trustees shall be carried into effect, there will be six teachers in the central school next term, and three in the high school, nine teachers in all. This will occupy the central school building to its fullest capacity, and shows how the community is growing. At West Anaheim four teachers are employed, and at Katella one, giving us twelve teachers at present employed, and with fourteen in prospect for next term. Numerous applicants for teachers' positions have been made, but the Trustees on Monday evening decided to retain the full corps of teachers at present employed. The plan to have teachers resident here during the term of their engagements, was discussed, and while the majority of the board favored that plan, they decided it was not for the best interests of the school to inaugurate it for the present. GUS HANSEN, of Orangethorpe, is one of the aforetime large beet raisers who is gradually getting out of the business. Two years ago the largest beet raiser in the county, he has now only a small acreage of them, and these he devotes mainly to stock-feeding purposes. Mr. Hansen is going in for raising dairy stock, and milks some sixty cows, disposing of the milk to the Buena Park condensed creamery. He has an abundance of artesian water on his ranch, and his property is one of the best improved in the county. Two years ago he raised a very fine beet crop, and as long as the factory at Chino telegraphed down for shipments of 1100 tons per day, his beets went forward at a rapid rate, and at a satisfactory price. But when, after some weeks of shipments at the rate of 800 tons per day (our farmers being unable to exceed that figure in their daily shipments), the Chino beets ripened up, and orders came to reduce shipments to beferred to the Pacific coast of the United States if proper steps are taken. Copra oil is largely used in the manufacture of soaps, for which Marseilles is noted. It is obtained by crushing coconut, which was formerly done by hand, but now by machinery. For several years past Marseilles' almost total supply has come from the Philippines. Nuts fall from the trees and lie on the ground until the hard shell separates from the kernel and decays. The kernel appears to lose none of its useful qualities, though permitted to remain on the ground for a year or more. In certain seasons the copra is gathered and dumped into small coasting boats. It is then taken to Manila or other seaports and transferred. A decided advantage in favor of American mills for crushing copra is the fact that the best results are obtained by blending copra and cottonseed oils for the manufacture of fine grades of soap. Cottonseed oil can be secured on the Pacific coast much cheaper than in France. In 1897 the Philippines shipped 7700 tons of copra to Marseilles, the Marseilles price averaging $6 per metric quintal of 220 pounds. Most of the natives who formerly gathered copra are now engaged in the rebellion, causing prices to more than double in the Marseilles market. ANAHEIM's delinquent tax list is smaller than ever.-Los Angeles Times. Inasmuch as the city assessment is not yet half taken; as the Board of Equalization will not meet until August; as the tax rate will not be determined upon until after that date, and as not a dollar of city taxes has yet been paid, or is now due, it would seem that the Times item was rather premature. To be sure, it is very kind of the Times to say nice things of us, but while in its absurd mood, why not do the right thing and say there will be no delinquent tax list at all?

Crop Conditions. U. S. Department of Agriculture, California section, climate and crop service. Weather Bureau, San Francisco, June 12: General summary: In the Sacramento and San Joaquin valleys the temperature has averaged from five to eight degrees above normal for the week, while on the coast and in Southern California it has been normal or slightly below. Light showers occurred in the extreme south morning of the 12th; elsewhere no rain fell during the week. The warm weather was not accompanied by northers, and was therefore beneficial to growing crops. Wheat is ripening rapidly, and will soon be ready for harvest. In some sections barley harvesting has commenced; the yield and quality are good. Haying is nearly completed. Deciduous fruits are being gathered; peaches are yielding a very large crop of good quality. In some sections apricots are more plentiful than had been estimated. Grapes were benefited by favorable conditions during the week, and promise a good crop. Citrus fruits and vegetables are good condition. Diller E.

As its name implies, it is a complete slightly below. Light showers occurred in the extreme south the morning of the 12th; elsewhere no rain fell during the week. The warm weather was not accompanied by northers, and was therefore beneficial to growing crops. Wheat is ripening rapidly, and will soon be ready for harvest.

Grapes were benefited by favorable conditions during the week, and promise a good crop. Citrus fruits and walnuts are in good condition. Southern California — Fruit: The vineyards are in excellent condition, and grapes are setting better than for several years. Prunes, peaches and apricots are a good crop. Throughout the section the weather conditions have been generally favorable to deciduous and citrus fruits, and a good crop will probably be gathered in San Diego county. Grain and hay: The conditions have been favorable to all growing crops. Most of the grain crop will be cut for hay. Hayling is still in progress; the yield is below the average, but generally better than last year. Minor crops: The growth of beans was retarded by cloudy days and foggy nights; beets and corn thriving; walnuts doing well; mustard ripening slowly; pasture fair. Los Angeles summary: Cool, foggy weather has been generally favorable to beets, beans and corn, but somewhat injurious to hay. Warm, sunny weather needed. Deciduous fruit reports continue favorable. Apricots are ripening. Moisture is well retained in the soil. ALEXANDER G. MCADIE, Section Director, San Francisco, Cal. Excursions to San Diego and Coronado. A series of popular excursions will be run to San Diego this summer on the following dates: June 16th and 17th, July 1st and 2d, August 4th and 5th, September 1st and 2d. Notwithstanding everything has been advancing in price, the rate will be the same as last season, $3.00 for the round trip, and tickets good for return anytime within thirty days. Low rate excursion and commutation tickets are also on sale every day. In July the Governor of Lower California and staff will visit San Diego. He brings his pet band, so you may look out for good music; and at Tia Juana there will be festivities, including Spanish games and a bull fight. je8-tf Lost—Reward.

August Hemmerling and wife, Julia QUITE BADLY HURT. Mrs. Sidney Holman Thrown from Her Bicycle While on Her Way to Church on Sunday. Mrs. Sidney Holman sustained serious injuries by being thrown from her bicycle while on her way to church on Sunday morning. Mr. Holman started out ahead of her and as he reached the railroad track on Santa Ana street on the road in, looked back and saw that his wife had not yet turned the corner at Mr. Weisel's place, a half-mile below. He returned over the route he had just traversed, and on turning the corner beheld his wife lying unconscious in the road. He called to Mr. Mickle, who lives near the place, and a mattress was procured and the unconscious lady was carried into Mr. Mickle's home. The time was about 11:30. Dr. Eddy was at once sent for, and he found Mrs. Holman unconscious, in which state she remained until about 3 o'clock. She was delirious at times, but yesterday showed signs of improvement. Mrs. Holman was quite severely bruised about the face, and sustained serious injuries. How she came to be thrown from the wheel is not definitely known, but it is presumed she lost her balance in some way, with the result of sustaining a very severe fall. Child Drowned. John Bush while peddling fish at Villa Park yesterday morning came to the place of William Berdge, where he found the two-year-old son of that gentleman had fallen into the ditch running from the Santiago creek and drowned. The child had been playing near the ditch, which was a small one, and had fallen in the water. Mr. Bush assisted in the attempt to resuscitate the child an hour, and when he left there was no sign of its regaining consciousness. He later heard from Mr. Barker, who remained an hour after he left that the child was still unconscious, and the physicians had given up hope of reviving it. STATE RESERVOIRS.

A number of wealthy and influential gentlemen of San Francisco, among them I. W. Hellman, Prof. Davidson, Horace Davis, W. H. Mills, E. B. Pond, J. D. Phelan and many others, have undertaken to call a convention for the purpose of starting one of the greatest movements for the benefit of the entire State that has ever been placed before the public. The proposition is to build reservoirs for the storage of the flood waters to be used in times when water is scarce or certain sections are threatened with drought. To make the proper start the co-operation of all large commercial and industrial bodies is necessary, and to this end the promoters have issued the following letter. The replies of all receiving the same have been favorable, and a convention is likely to be called in a short time; Gentlemen: The drought of 1898 cost the State of California over $40,000,000. For twenty-five years we have applied to the National Legislature without relief. It refuses to regard the question as a national one. No interstate questions are involved in the sources of water supply of our State, such sources are almost within our geographical boundaries. There is, therefore, no reason why we should expect aid from the National Government except possibly in assisting to regulate the flow of the few streams in the State which are called navigable and which would come strictly within the purposes and spirit of the river and harbor bill. Of late years the attention of the National Legislature has been turned toward the irrigation by storage reservoirs of lands still owned by the United States. We have no such lands of any appreciable amount in this State, therefore our chances of relief from this quarter are less, in our opinion, than they were years ago. If we wait for it we will all be dead before it comes. Private capital will not invest in storage reservoirs, as the return must be small or the public oppressed. The Wright irrigation act has been a practical failure. Moreover, the control exercised by the Boards of Supervisors over such investments frightens private capital. With State control over its winter flood water California is capable of supporting 10,000,000 people or more. The possibility of drought and uncertainty of crops deters home seekers from coming at once. The State should step in and at once. Its powers are ample. It alone possesses adequate powers. There is no reason why California should not do what France, Egypt, Lombardy and India have already done and done successfully. We believe that the State has the remedy in its own hands and that it must now take up the question of the storage of flood waters as the only means of its future salvation. In our opinion San Francisco should take the initiative in putting such a plan into practical operation. It should convince the people resident in the country that it recognizes the fact that there was no sign of its regaining consciousness. He later heard from Mr. Barker, who remained an hour after he left, that the child was still unconscious, and the physicians had given up hope of reviving it.

From the Crockett (Contra Costa county) Signal, June 10. At Cordelia, Dixon and other towns in the beet sections which supply ourinery, the Carroll dump is soon to be erected. This contrivance greatly facilitates the unloading of the beet wagons to cars, and instead of long rows of magnesis waiting, the load is dumped in about two minutes and the wagon is sent away for another. These dumps have been in operation since the southern part of the State for about a year, and have given perfect satisfaction. To unload a wagon or car by means of this dump, the conveyance is first upon the dump. In the case of a wagon, the team is not unhitched, but remains standing on a solid platform while the load is being dumped. When the vehicle is upon the dump, an attendant will hook a rope or chain, which hangs above the platform for the purpose, to a catch which holds the side of the vehicle bed in place; then another attendant on the opposite side throws a lever which brings a support against the hubs of the wheels; then a third lever is thrown, thus tipping the dump platform and the vehicle sideways. As the vehicle tips the catch is held by the chain and released, the side of the wagon drops down and the slide off; then the dump lever isrown down, thus bringing the wagon upright position; the first lever is returned to its first position, thus resuming the hubs; the attendant throws the side of the wagon up into place, where it is caught by a catch and held place, and the teamster is ready to live away. The dump is also used for coal, rock and all kinds of bulk loads, and has easily simplified the handling of them.

NEW YORK, June 13.—While unwilling to accept a home for himself, Admiral Dewey is desirous that the money collected for his benefit should be used for the establishment of a soldiers and sailors' home, says a Washington correspondent of the Herald. A private cablegram sent by the Admiral to a friend gives the authority for this statement. The Admiral has not communicated with the members of the home committee, doubtless because they have never informed him of what they are doing. Members of the committee and friends of the Admiral have been expecting that he would decline to receive the home, and would suggest that the money be employed for veterans. Treasurer Roberts, who is also treasurer of the Dewey fund, said that the committee would continue its collection, and that when the sum originally determined upon had been raised, a decision would be reached relative to its disposition. In naval circles generally and among officials much satisfaction is felt at the Admiral's decision. It has been stated that he would find a home such as was Big Fees For Doctors. Sixty thousand dollars and a pension of $2,500 a year was the fee paid to Dr. Thomas Dimsale, the Hertfordshire physician who, in 1872, was summoned to St. Petersburg to vaccinate the Empress Catherine II. Dr. Butler, who had obtained a great reputation for extraordinary skill in the operation for lithotomy, received a lace of rupees (then equivalent to $50,000) from each of six Indian rajahs for the single operation. The late czar of Russia paid a fee of $75,000 to Professor Zachereine Moscow for two days' attendance. A certain Dr. Gale of Bristol, who was blind, for curing a gentleman of a seriously diseased knee by some electric treatment received a check for $250,000. Dr. Gale Yowksi, the famous oculist, who attended the son of the shah of Persia, received $85,000 in fees during the three months of his residence in Teheran, while all his expenses of traveling and maintenance were paid. Sir William Jenner received for four weeks' attendance at Sandringham during the illness of the Prince of Wales. Witness room. Judge's chambers. Sheriff's office. Assessor's office.

The wife of an American naval officer stationed at Tien-tsin writes thus to a friend in Baltimore: "The trip by train from the landing to Tien-tsin takes about an hour and a half. The cars are not palatial, but they are comfortable. When you land, hundreds of coolles be siege you for your baggage. You wonder how it ever reaches its destination in safety. The trip is somewhat interesting, but rather desolate to take alone. You pass through miles of graveyards. There are thousands of mounds without a sign of green grass or green leaf. "China seems to be one vast graveyard, for they bury their dead anywhere they wish. They bury in large coffins placed on the surface of the ground, covered over with mud and earth. This is blown and washed away, and then the coffins are exposed to view. A few miles from the railroad station on the river you come to trees and vegetation. It reminds you of some of the poor land that some of our railroads at home go through." How Frozen Insects Revive Experiments in reviving frozen insects, by Mr. S. F. Aaron, show some surprising results. A large cecropia moth, frozen in the center of a snowball until it was perfectly brittle, revived in 20 seconds when held near a stove. Several newly hatched 10 moths revived in a similar manner after being frozen stiff and then thawed out. Similar experiments with ants, butterflies and house flies gave the same results. But Mr. Aaron noticed that recently hatched insects resist cold better than older ones. The late czar of Russia paid a fee of $75,000 to Professor Zacheryine of Moscow for two days' attendance. A certain Dr. Gale of Bristol, who was blind, for curing a gentleman of a seriously diseased knee by some electric treatment received a check for $250,000. Dr. Gale Yowski, the famous oculist, who attended the son of the shah of Persia, received $85,000 in fees during the three months of his residence in Teheran, while all his expenses of travelling and maintenance were paid. Sir William Jenner received for four weeks' attendance at Sandringham during the illness of the Prince of Wales a baronetcy and a fee of $50,000, while Sir Morell Mackenzie is reported to have received twice that amount for attending the Emperor Frederick. His royal highness the nawab of Rampur, India, a few years since paid an English army surgeon $50,000 for an occasional attendance in an ordinary attack of rheumatism. Good Friday In England. Many quaint and some grotesque observances of Good Friday have prevailed in various localities. In Brighton the custom of skipping the rope on that day led to the use of the term "Long Rope day." Six or eight adults, with a long rope, skipped at one time. In the Sussex villages men and boys play marble. At St Bartholomew's church, London, 91 old women appear and before a crowd of curious onlookers bend their stiffened, aged knees to pick up 91 axpences. This latter custom had its origin before the great fire, when an eccentric woman left her property to have 91 sixpences laid upon her gravestone in St. Bartholomew's church, which were annually to be picked up by aged widow. At the Church of All Hallows the youngest boys of the Blue Coat school are enabled, by the will of Peter Symonds, dated 1687, to divide 60 new pennies and 60 packets of raisins among them. In London and all over England the eating of "hot cross buns" is the special feature of the day. The original home of this English custom is said to be in Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire. There, wherever the old Roman roads crossed, stood the altar of Diana of the Crossways, to whom the Romans offered their sacred cakes.
