REWARDS OF GENERALS.
Probably the most successful general of any age, from a financial point of view, was the celebrated John Churchill, Duke of Marlborough. For his famous victory at Blenheim alone he received the royal manor of Woodstock, upon which Queen Anne subsequently erected the magnificent Blenheim Palace. At the same time the nation's gratitude was expressed in the highly practical form of a perpetual pension to himself and heirs for ever, of the very respectable sum of £4000 per annum.
On Land.
Samual Kraemer last week gave the Hall company of Los Angeles an option on 80 acres of land owned by him in the foothills northeast of his Placentia ranch, at $50 per acre. Sam recently offered to sell his holding of 1000 acres in the same locality for $50 per acre. Drilling operations will begin shortly, and should oil be found. Sam will advance the price of the remainder of his land. The indications are said to be excellent for oil.
The Excitement Not Over.
The rush at the drug store still continues, and daily scores of people call for a bottle of Kemp’s Balsam for the Throat and Lungs for the cure of coughs, colds, asthma, bronchitis and consumption. Kemp’s Balsam, the standard family remedy, is sold on a guarantee and never fails to give entire satisfaction. Price 25c and 35c.
Belgian Hare Supper.
Chispa Chapter, No. 105, O. E. S., held a very enjoyable special meeting Wednesday evening, May 16. The occasion was the conferring of the degrees upon two candidates.
The Chapter had invited the members of Hermosa Chapter, No. 105, O. E. S., of Santa Ana to be present, and about 50 members attended. After the work in the Chapter was completed all were invited to Backs’ hall, where a Belgian hare supper, together with other delicacies was found in abundance. About 75 members of the order were happily entertained.
Dizziness
Is a very common consequence of indigestion and torpid liver. Sometimes there are spots before the eyes and hot flashes. At other times a sensation as of vertigo occurs, at once suffocating and blinding. It is a waste of time to attempt to cure this condition by ordinary means or medicines. The stomach and organs of digestion and nutrition must be restored to healthy activity, the blood must be purified, the liver cleansed and strengthened, before a cure can be hoped for. This is the work done by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, a medicine specially beneficial in diseases of the stomach, blood and
Rural Postal Delivery.
Postmaster Alexander of Santa Ana has received a communication from Congressman Needham, suggestive of the country around Santa Ana as an ideal place for the establishment of free postal delivery. Mr. Needham requested Alexander to investigate proposition and report to him as advisability of the establishment system in that vicinity. If the delay is established it will, in all probable include, according to Santa Ana services, Santa Ana, Orange and Tulsa.
Discovered by a Woman.
Another great discovery has made, and that, too, by a lady in country.“Disease fastened its clue upon her, and for seven years she stood its severest tests, but her organs were undermined and seemed imminent. For three months she coughed incessantly, and could sleep. She finally discovered a wrist recovery, by purchasing of us as Dr. King’s New Discovery for sumption, and was so much relieved taking first dose, that she slept night; and with two bottles has absolutely cured.” Her name is Luther Lutz.” Thus writes Vannie Hammiek & Co., of Shelby, N.C., bottles free at P.A. Derge’s drug regular size 50c and $1. Every guarantee.
This administration expresses opinion of the Boer war because none of our business to do so would have been thought, for instance if any European government had pressed an opinion, or attempted terfere, in our war with Spain? whole country would have howled rightly so. Why, then, should we deal with the affairs of others?

Probably the most successful general of any age, from a financial point of view, was the celebrated John Churchill, Duke of Marlborough. For his famous victory at Blenheim alone he received the royal manor of Woodstock, upon which Queen Anne subsequently erected the magnificent Blenheim Palace. At the same time the nation's gratitude was expressed in the highly practical form of a perpetual pension to himself and heirs for ever, of the very respectable sum of £4000 per annum. In addition to these splendid gifts, says The Gem, the Duke made some tolerable good pickings out of his campaigns, as will readily be admitted when it is stated that his widow, the ambitious "Sarah," to whom he bequeathed only part of his vast fortune, left behind her at her death by no means incouisderable sum of £3,000,000. The Marlborough "perpetual" pension, it may be added, was actually paid to the great warrior's descendants right up to the year 1884, when it was commuted for £107,780. Up to this date the nation had paid the Churchill family the very respectable sum of £780,000, exclusive altogether of interest.
Although his monetary "pickings," being strictly legitimate, were of considerable less value than those of his illustrious predecessor, the Duke of Wellington had nevertheless but little to complain of in the rewards showered upon him by a grateful country. Beginning with Talavera, for which he received a "three life" annuity of £2000, he subsequently had an additional £2000 tacked on to the first for the distinguished services which terminated with the storming of Ciudad Rodrigo.
In the same year (1812) a further annuity of £1000 was voted, in order that he might more becomingly sustain the Dukedom of Wellington, to which he had been raised from plain Arthur Wellesley as another recognition of his services. His pension was, however, commuted for a lump sum of £400,000; while the final grant of £200,000 voted for the victory of Waterloo closed the mutually satisfactory account between the gallant Duke and the land for which he had achieved so much.
Sir Colin Campbell, although the hero of many splendid achievements in the Peninsular, Walcheren, Demerara, China, Sikh and Crimean wars, is best remembered in British hearts in connection with his magnificent conduct of the campaign arising out of the Indian Mutiny. For his brilliant services during those stirring times Sir Colin received a peerage as Lord Clyde, and a pension of £2000 per annum. His career is more worthy of our admiration in that it was self-made, the gallant Sir Colin being neither of good family nor possessed of the initial advantages of a good education.
For his capture of Magdala, and the consequent termination of the Abyssinian war, on April 13, 1868, General Sir Robert Napier was awarded the stereotyped £2000 per annum, and received, in addition, the double dignity of a field marshalship and the title of Lord Napier of Magdala.
Of late, however, the life pensions have dropped out of favor. For instance, the present commander in chief, Lord Wolseley, receives a grant of £25,000 only for his successful conduct of the Ashantee campaign of 1873-1874, while

is more worthy of our admiration in that it was self-made, the gallant Sir Colin being neither of good family nor possessed of the initial advantages of a good education.

Of late, however, the life pensions have dropped out of favor. For instance, the present commander in chief, Lord Wolseley, receives a grant of £25,000 only for his successful conduct of the Ashantee campaign of 1873-1874, while for the Egyptian campaign of 1882 and the Nile expedition of 1894 he received a peerage and a viscountcy, respectively. Similarly, Sir Herbert Kitchener emerged from the shambles of Omdurman with the title of Lord Kitchener of Khartoum and a much debated grant of £25,000.
The present commander in chief at the Cape of Good Hope (Lord Roberts) has made still less, although his galantry (he is a V. C.) and his long and arduous service—he has been fighting his country's battles for upwards of forty-nine years—are probably unsurpassed by any living soldier.
For his historic Cabul-Kandahar march he was created a barronet and voted a grant of £12,000, while he was advanced to the peerage upon celebrating his diamond jubilee in 1892.

Discovered by a Woman.
Another great discovery has been made, and that, too, by a lady in this country. "Disease fastened its clutches on her, and for seven years she withdrew its severest tests, but her vital organs were undermined and death imminent. For three months brought incessantly, and could not be saved." She finally discovered a way to cure it, by purchasing of us a bottle of King's New Discovery for Condition, and was so much relieved on being first dose, that she slept all night; and with two bottles has been absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs. Lutz." Thus writes W. C. Munick & Co., of Shelby, N.C. Trial tables free at P. A. Derge's drug store. Regular size 50c and $1. Every bottle guaranteed.
This administration expresses no opinion of the Boer war because it is one of our business to do so. What would have been thought, for instance, by European government had exasperated an opinion, or attempted to inquire, in our war with Spain? The whole country would have howled, and likely so. Why, then, should we mediate with the affairs of others?
Glorious News
News from Dr. D. B. Cargile, of Washington, I.T. He writes: "Four bottles of Electric Bitters has cured Mrs. Brewer Ferrofaula, which has caused her great burning for years. Terrible sores break out on her head and face, the best doctors could give no help, her cure is complete and her health excellent." This shows what thousands have proved—that Electric Bitter is the best blood purifier known. The supreme remedy for eczema, sore salt rheum, ulcers, bolls and runny sores. It stimulates liver, kidneys bowels, expels poisons, helps digestion, builds up the strength. Only incidents. Sold by P. A. Derge, drug-guaranteed.

Washington Navel Orange.
Continued from First Page.
belief or impression that the period of profitable production of the Washington navel orange ceases after the seventh or eighth year. On this subject C. E. Bemis, in an essay read before the Covina Farmers' institute, said:
"It is not claimed that our trees are short lived, but that their period of fruitfulness is to be short, and that the budded varieties differ materially from the seedling in this regard. But has such a difference been shown to exist in their actual periods of fruitfulness?
Let us make a comparison. In the first place the navel and seedling are both upon the same root, and therefore started out in life upon the same footing.
For the first seven or eight years the seedling tree draws upon its plot of ground for such elements of plant food only as will produce growth of limb, leaf and root, asking for no fruit-forming material, as it has made no fruit.
It then begins to use sparingly of its reserve materials, and within the next seven or eight years it will so nearly have exhausted the fruit-forming elements in the natural soil that it no longer produces profitable crops, they being small in quantity and inferior in quality. Now, in the case of the navel tree, you have taken a bud from a precocious variety of tree, and by uniting it with a seedling root have produced the most ravenous feeder of the citrus family, and also the most perfect machine for making superb fruit yet known to the business. It is not content with the slow, plodding habit of the seedling tree, but even in its second year begins to dig up the necessary materials for constructing fruit, and it will continue to do so in an increased ratio until about the same length of time occupied in the process of the seedling, when it too will have used up so much of its available material that it can no longer increase its output, the difference, if any, in the time occupied being easily explained by the superior texture and greater amount of nutrient contained in the navel over the seedling fruit."
