While in Los Angeles the other day we ran afoul of a cock-and-bull story to the effect that Judge Silent and J. R. Newberry were upon the eye of exploding another bombshell relative to water rights hereabout. The plan was said to be to go into court with complaints against the Anaheim and Santa Ana companies, charging them with wilful waste of water, and petition for the appropriation of the salvage water in the river between Rincon and the intake of the upper canal of the first named company, a distance of some three miles. This means that the water said to be lost in transit is by them regarded as being susceptible to appropriation, which the common sense view would seem to indicate that it is lot. Their purpose is said to be the construction of a wooden flume, bringing the water down from Rincon to our intake, and delivering to us as much as our canal now takes up. The overplus is the salvage water, and this is what our friend the Judge is said to be after. A learned engineer in the employ of the two water companies a year or so ago estimated this salvage water at 100 inches; now he is said to lean to the opinion that the estimates of the Judge's engineers that the volume amounts to between 800 and 900 inches, are nearer the correct figure; in fact he estimates the volume at not far short of 1000 inches—quite a difference from his former estimate. Judge Silent is said to have associated with him Judge Works, one of the eminent water lawyers of Southern California, and is said to have employed all the hydraulic engineers in the State, so that the water companies will be without the comfort doubtless a good deal of merit, but the time for raising $6000 bonuses has passed. Our people are not very keen on bonuses. Talk has been revived about the necessity for the erection of an office building for the use of the water company. The Board of Audit has rendered its report, and has found many things to criticise; but what would have been said if it had gone into a detailed criticism of the many thousands of dollars' worth of valuable maps and documents thrown together haphazard, in the present office, for lack of a better place to put them, and which are constantly exposed to destruction by fire? This property should be placed safely out of harm's way, in a fireproof vault, roomy enough to admit of its being indexed and filed ready for immediate reference by the stockholders. The business of the office has grown so that its present quarters are totally inadequate to the demands for room constantly pressing upon it. The water company owns a lot in town, upon which it has been paying taxes for years. If it be desirable to erect a building upon one of the principal streets, we feel certain the progressive citizens of Anaheim will make the company a very flattering offer for the erection of a building. One of the progressive architects of the city (Mr. McWilliams) offers to donate plans and specifications free, and other citizens stand ready to lend substantial assistance. The water company has too much at stake not to accept these liberal offers. It has thousands of dollars' worth of maps, deeds and documents which should be stored in a place of safekeeping. A fire would destroy more of their property than it would take to erect an office building ten times over. Let the Directors investigate the liberal offers made, to the end that the company may be housed in a building commensurate with its growing importance. lawsuit by Newberry at that time but which happily was so effected headed off that it never made appearance in court. At that he jotted down several items what, for lack of a better name referred to as the "Newbern count." These were simply randa, and when it came to change them up in the final report were of course placed under proper headings. Mr. Wright stands high aspert accountant, and has few superiors in the unraveling and tangled accounts. He waits ing, he says, to straighten out entanglement in the joint action instead of making confusion confounded, and so never thought opening up a Newberry account. Relative to the charge of Mr. Blennerhassett, for overpay upon the Flotow note, he exerted the soundness of that proceeding stating that, when the final pay was authorized to be made, the rectors instructed the Secretary pay "the balance remaining due on the note, instead of specifying sum. Even if the amount has specified, and the overpayment been made upon order of theitors, he holds the Secretary, supposed to keep the books company, and furnish all fine data upon application, would been charged with the loss company, the error having been the first place his. Mr. Blennerhassett has given his check to the court to balance his accounts and that dent is closed. Mr. Wright sebe eminently correct, and will head. COUNTRY IS SO PROSPERABLE Heavy Railroad Freight and Pass Traffic to California—Freight Delayed. The Southern California Fruit Change has an agency in Buffalo Monday this agency sold three cases of California oranges, and whose agent was asked how many mates of the Judge's engineers that the volume amounts to between 800 and 900 inches, are nearer the correct figure; in fact he estimates the volume at not far short of 1000 inches—quite a difference from his former estimate. Judge Silent is said to have associated with him Judge Works, one of the eminent water lawyers of Southern California, and is said to have employed all the hydraulic engineers in the State, so that the water companies will be without the comfort of such counsel as they have in the past been able to secure. That is unkind of the Judge—we should not have thought that of him. This salvage water, we presume, is to be sold the valley water companies, or piped across the hills to Viverolls, or some other seaport town. Our advice to irrigators is to lose little sleep over this contemplated lawsuit. Their water rights are not to be based upon such flimsy pretexts as artificial woodwork in the river bottom—what would become of the underflow; is not the underflow a necessary part of the flowing stream; is it not essential that it be preserved in order to continue the flow? But we shall not ask questions about this embryotic bugaboo. If Judge Silent really desires to bring the suit, we apprehend he will have no difficulty in getting the valley irrigators to accommodate him with a spirited two-step to swift music. Since the above was placed in type we read in the Riverside correspondence of the Los Angeles Herald announcement of the transfer by Newberry of his interests to a company of which J. Ross Clark is President, which has filed upon 15,000 inches of water at Rincon! This article is republished in another column. The purpose is to irrigate lands between Whittier and the San Joaquin ranch, so the paper says! That the Anaheim Union and Santa Ana water companies will put up a stiff fight against encroachment upon their rights to water in the river, goes without saying. Mr. Meyenberg's proposition died abornin'—it is given out that it has been postponed until next Fall. His purpose was to erect a milk-condensing factory here, if a bonus of $6000 could be raised for him, together with free water and exemption from taxation. Mr. Meyenberg has come and gone—he has returned to Kent. No public meeting was held, and the people failed to get a good neckhold upon the merits of his proposition. His scheme was to get the people of Santa Ana and Anaheim to bid against one another's generosity—to The water company has too much at stake not to accept these liberal offers. It has thousands of dollars' worth of maps, deeds and documents which should be stored in a place of safekeeping. A fire would destroy more of their property than it would take to erect an office building ten times over. Let the Directors investigate the liberal offers made, to the end that the company may be housed in a building commensurate with its growing importance. "All is not gold that glitters,'" said the old oil expert, in town the other day, "and all these accounts you hear of the wonderful profits in oil must be taken with a grain of salt. Besides, many a dollar is lost in dry holes which the public hears nothing about. When one makes a strike, everybody hears of it—when he loses, the world wots not of his loss. Take the —— & —— company we hear so much about; they have ten or a dozen producing wells, yet they are mortgaged for $60,000 to a Pomona bank, which started the company in the first place. And this mortgage indebtedness does not represent all of it—the personal debts of the members of the firm are nearly as much more. The company has declared no dividends—every dollar it gets it puts into another well. They may win it out all right some day; but it is a gamble pure and simple, and I had rather put my money in mining every time. "I know the case of one of the best companies in the Kern river field, which had an experience some days ago that is an eye-opener to people who are not closely in touch with the oil business. The Standard Oil company went to them some time ago and offered them 65 cents per barrel for all the oil they produced for ten years—offered to make a contract with them for this amount. 'Oh, no,' they said, 'that is too low a figure for us to talk about.' Oil had been selling for 90 and $1. Some days thereafter, the owner of these wells, not caring to take on a competitive fight with the oil octopus, went to them and offered to make the contract for oil at the figure offered—65 cents. 'Oh, no,' said the Standard people, 'we have considered our offer. The best we can do today is to offer you 30 cents.' The next day the Standard cut the price of oil to that figure—30 cents. It's a clear case of freeze-out. What can these little oil operators do against Standard Oil? Nothing. Inside of five years Standard Oil will own every oil well in California. "The Menges well, over here in the COUNTRY IS SO PROSPER Heavy Railroad Freight and Pass Traffic to California—Freight Delayed. The Southern California Fruit change has an agency in Buffalo Monday this agency sold three cases of California oranges, and when agent was asked how many cars he could sell per day in that city he answered: “If I had had on hand year thirty carloads of California oranges could have sold all of them. Only three carloads, and they come anywhere near supply regular trade. People were rent in here all day anxious to leave for oranges, and I could not fill it. It's all on account of the condition of the railroads simply can't get freight through California on time, because those roads have more business than can handle. I am told that every eager trains can't get through on because there are so many trains on the tracts that they can out of the way to let anything thru." “It's a great pity that we can fruit through here. There are no better markets in the East for California fruit than Buffalo, and free growing demand we are having from year to year the eastern railway will soon demand more fruits Southern California can possibly duce. I have never seen any such for this fruit as has occurred this and the demand will soon be given every day. It's a pity we can't our markets.” In most cities in the East it is stood that the same story is told only are the dealers in California unable to come anywhere near selling the market, but the market grown away beyond what it was two years ago. Whether this is manent demand, or whether it is merely by the remarkable profit of the country, the dealers know, but they think that the present market for California fruits East has grown at least 25 per cent one single year. HUDSON'S WELL. After making a thorough examination of San Jacinto well and tenuous territory, Prof. W. L. W. the well-known oil expert, reported the directors of the San Jacinto company that the location, which selected by D. W. Hudson, formed this city, was not favorable for or that the indications for striking well of artesian water were exceed Professor Watts indicated where next well should be drilled, and adding of the company will be held early day to act on the matter. Hudson was imported from Los Angeles and paid a liberal salary for inging the well. He claimed to be an expert," but he turned out to be abornin'—it is given out that it has been postponed until next Fall. His purpose was to erect a milk-condensing factory here, if a bonus of $6000 could he raised for him, together with free water and exemption from taxation. Mr. Meyenberg has come and gone—he has returned to Kent. No public meeting was held, and the people failed to get a good neckhold upon the merits of his proposition. His scheme was to get the people of Santa Ana and Anaheim to bid against one another's generosity—to see which of the two places would offer the greater inducement for his industry. At Santa Ana a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce was held, at which, when Meyenberg asked what bonus the town would offer, he was informed that a site of two acres for his factory was the best that could be done for him. He left on the next train for this city. His entry was unostentatious. Not half a dozen men in town knew he was here. No public meeting was arranged for, and the day after his arrival he departed north. His purpose to go into the manufacture of condensed milk is one meriting all praise; but it might as well be understood first as last that a bonus of $6000 is out of the question, as is also exemption of the works from taxation—that could only be brought about by the addition of this sum to the original bonus. Governing bodies have no right to exempt any one from taxation. If the industry were to have been established in the Dreyfus winery (as friends of the project at one time suggested) the City Trustees would have nothing to do with its taxes, the building being out of the city limits. The Supervisors would be the body to appeal to in such case; and the law debars them from exempting property from taxation—as it does the City Trustees also. Mr. Meyenberg's proposition has put us to them and offered to make the contract for oil at the figure offered—65 cents. 'Oh, no,' said the Standard people, 'we have reconsidered our offer. The best we can do today is to offer you 30 cents.' The next day the Standard cut the price of oil to that figure—30 cents. It's a clear case of freeze-out. What can these little oil operators do against Standard Oil? Nothing. Inside of five years Standard Oil will own every oil well in California. "The Menges well, over here in the hills near Brea canyon, is down 1360 feet. Thirteen thousand dollars has been sunk into that hole—that is a good deal of money. There has been $350,000 taken out of the Santa Ana banks in a year to go into oil, and this has made money tight, to some extent, in this county. Some of it is coming back all right—some good strikes have been made in Kern. "But isn't it a funny thing that these Santa Fe and Brea canyon wells have been lying there in that territory all these years, and we never had enough savvy to make a make a try for oil—isn't it? There are some fine wells over there, and more coming. But my advice to people of limited means is to keep out of oil for all that. 'All is not gold that glitters.'" And the old oil expert lighted a fresh cigar and sailed forth into the outer world. Alex Wright, chairman of the Board of Audit, takes exceptions to the statement of Mr. Armor, made at the meeting of the water board Saturday week, to the effect that he had charged items of expenditure, incurred in the joint work up the river, to the Newberry litigation account, when in fact there was no such account. He states that in a conference with Mr. Armor this matter was referred to—the expenditure of moneys in preparing for a threatenediguous territory, Prof. W. L. W., the well-known oil expert, reported by the directors of the San Jacinto company that the location, which selected by D. W. Hudson, formed this city, was not favorable for or that the indications for striking a well of artesian water were excessive. Professor Watts indicated where next well should be drilled, and adding of the company will be held early day to act on the matter. Hudson was imported from Los Angeles and paid a liberal salary forming the well. He claimed to be an expert," but he turned out to be a same old fraud who used to lie Orange county. Suit for Oil Land. A case of interest to several oil panies is up before the United States Circuit Court in Los Angeles. Ectorney-General W. H. H. Hart Aylett R. Cotton of San Francisco present the plaintiffs. The suit is of the California Oil and Gas Company of Arizona against E. O. Miller others. The original suit was a b equity to quiet title to certain oil now occupied by the Coalinga company on the northwest corner Home Oil company on the northeast corner. The controversy grows out of conflicting localities. The plaintiffs claim they have been possession of the southeast quarter for many years. Some of the claims go back as far as 1890. hearing will be upon a demurrer or defendants to the plaintiffs' action quiet title. It will be a hard-fought battle, as the land is of great value. Perfectly formed walnuts in M are sufficient of a novelty to wear more than a passing note. Mrs. hemus brought in a couple, from ranch at Miraflores, which we break the record. One of her trees laden with a number of them, and give every evidence of mature ahead of the schedule time. The may come when spring walnuts may another feature to the glorious cliffs of California. Attention is directed to the advertisement of Lewis & Zeus, which will found in another column. See them stylish rubber-tire rigs and tall turnouts. JOINTISTS GET A STIFF JOLT. Carrie Nation Has a Fine Show to Distinguish Herself at Fullerton—Clubs are in Eclipse. "Fullerton is a dry town tonight," said one of the prominent club members of that town on Saturday evening; "the clubs are all closed and we don't know when they will be opened again. Lymburner was arrested again today, and Frank Preston and the Eubanks brothers were also pulled. Of the five clubs at Fullerton, four of them have closed their doors, and the other is out of the business." "What are you fellows going to do about getting a drink hereafter—come to Anaheim?" asked the reporter. "We are going to fight this thing to a finish. The clubs are formed on the same basis as the Jonathan club in Los Angeles, and if that club can run, we are advised we can run. We may be temporarily on Queer street, as you say, but we are a going for it out—now you see if we don't." The previous day Lymburner was fined $150 by Judge Willson of Santa Ana for violation of the county liquor law. He gave bonds in $500, took an appeal, through his attorney, Horace Head, to the Superior Court, and then went home and opened up his place of business again. A new complaint was sworn to by C. C. Chapman, one of the leading orange growers of Placentia, and a Director in the Fullerton bank, who is determined along with the other respectable portion of the community, to rid the town of its deadfalls. According to the law every day counts as a separate offense so long as the joints remain open. Frank Preston, the slugger who was several weeks ago defeated in a ring contest with McCosky of Los Angeles, and who is a Director in Lymburner's joint, was also arrested. Both were taken to Orange, gave cash bail, and were released. Al and Elmer Eubanks, proprietors of two joints, were also arrested on Saturday on warrants issued out of the Justice's Court at Orange. They obtained their release on giving bonds in the sum of $100 each. When this quartet of clubmen who are violators of the law returned to Fullerton a council of war was held and it was determined to close their claims there that will fight for their rights. For instance, the Anaheim Union water company and the Santa Ana water company lay claim to the same water rights, and these companies will no doubt make a big fight for their rights. One of the first things the new company will do, so it is stated, will be to bring suit to quiet title to the water rights, as a large share of the water comes from water bearing land included. In the 320-acre purchase from Newberry, and this water they are assured they can hold against all comers. Taken altogether the outlook for much tangled litigation over the rival claims to that water is promising, indeed.—Los Angeles Herald. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS.

The Southern California Fruit Exchange has an agency in Buffalo. On Monday this agency sold three carloads of California oranges, and when the court was asked how many carloads could sell per day in that market answered: If I had had on hand yesterday fifty carloads of California oranges I would have sold all of them. I had three carloads, and they did not be anywhere near supplying the usual trade. People were running here all day anxious to leave orders oranges, and I could not fill them. All on account of the congested edition of the railroads. You apply can't get freight through from California on time, because the railroads have more business than they handle. I am told that even passenger trains can't get through on time, cause there are so many freight cars on the tracts that they can't get of the way to let anything through. It is a great pity that we can't get it through here. There are plenty better markets in the East for Cali-nia fruit than Buffalo, and from the swing demand we are having here in year to year the eastern cities soon demand more fruit than Cali-nia can possibly produce. I have never seen any such rush this fruit as has occurred this year, the demand will soon be growing every day. It's a pity we can't supply markets." In most cities in the East it is underdraft that the same story is told. Not only are the dealers in California fruits able to come anywhere near supply the market, but the market has grown away beyond what it was even years ago. Whether this is a percent demand, or whether it is causerely by the remarkable prosperity of the country, the dealers don't buy, but they think that the permacenter for California fruits in the has grown at least 25 per cent in single year. HUDSON'S WELL. After making a thorough examination of the San Jacinto well and conus territory, Prof. W. L. Watts, well-known oil expert, reported to directors of the San Jacinto Oil company that the location, which was dated by D. W. Hudson, formerly of city, was not favorable for oil, but the indications for striking a fine artesian water were excellent. Messor Watts indicated where the well should be drilled, and a meet of the company will be held at an early day to act on the matter. Mudson was imported from Los Angeles and paid a liberal salary for locat- the well. He claimed to be an "oilert," but he turned out to be the several weeks ago defeated in a ring contest with McCosky of Los Angeles, and who is a Director in Lymburner's joint, was also arrested. Both were taken to Orange, gave cash bail, and were released. Al and Elmer Eubanks, proprietors of two joints, were also arrested on Saturday on warrants issued out of the Justice's Court at Orange. They obtained their release on giving bonds in the sum of $100 each. When this quartet of clubmen who are violators of the law returned to Fullerton a council of war was held and it was determined to close their doors, pending clearer skies. Mrs. Bolz who runs the Fullerton union club, has decided to close it up. Lymburner was tried at Fullerton on Monday on a charge of disturbing the peace, as a result of his attempt to pull off a boxing match on a Sunday, some weeks ago. The Justice held no disturbance of the peace resulted, and the defendant was discharged. Lymburner has yet to stand trial on a second charge of selling liquor in violation of the county ordinance. Yesterday it was announced that the four Fullerton thirst parlors which closed their doors on Saturday evening, had recovered their second wind and had opened up again. The blind pig was also in operation. All of the places are said to be doing a land-office business. A thirst parlor has been organized at Capistrano, and it is said the boys will have in future no difficulty in wetting their whistles in that classic town. Lymburner was in town on Tuesday, elated over his discharge on the accusation of disturbing the peace. "I am a British subject," he said (he was born in Canada) "and if these people don't let me alone I'll lay the case before the British Consul in Los Angeles. I have got a charter from the State to run my club, and then the courts go ahead and fine me $150. That isn't right. The people will have to treat me square, or I'll lay the case before the British Consul, and you'll have the British fleet in San Pedro bay, and the English flag floating over the City Hall." The antis declare, however, that Lymburner and the thirst parlors will have to go. PROSPECTIVE WATER LAWSUIT Newberry Transfers Title up the River to the Rincon Water and Power Company. Several documents were filed for record late Saturday in the county recorder's office at Riverside which may mean a great deal to Orange county. A day or two ago a deed was recorded transferring from J. R. Newberry and wife of Los Angeles to the Rincon water and power company some 350 acres of water bearing land in and around the town of Rincon. This transaction was not of itself enough to attract unusual attention, as big real estate deals have been frequent of late. Other documents in the shape of water appropriations, which were filed Saturday afternoon, are what lend importance to the deed mentioned. Miranda P.

The coroner was equaltoa sionhowever.He declareddissatisfiedwiththe verdict Suit for Oil Land. Because of interest to several oil companies is up before the United States Court in Los Angeles. Ex-Attorney-General W. H. H. Hart and Attorney R. Cotton of San Francisco report the plaintiffs. The suit is that the California Oil and Gas Company Arizona against E. O. Miller and others. The original suit was a bill in July to quiet title to certain oil lands occupied by the Coalinga Oil company on the northwest corner, the Lake Oil company on the northeast corner, and the Phoenix Oil company on the southeast corner. The controversy grows out of conflicting locations. Plaintiffs claim they have been in possession of the southeast quarter many years. Some of the location go back as far as 1890. The king will be upon a demurrer of the defendants to the plaintiffs' action to title. It will be a hard-fought battle, as the land is of great value. Effectively formed walnuts in March sufficient of a novelty to warrant them than a passing note. Mrs. Polly brought in a couple, from her at Miraflores, which we think is the record. One of her trees is with a number of them, and they every evidence of maturing of the schedule time. The time some when spring walnuts may add further feature to the glorious climate California. The intention is directed to the advertisement of Lewis & Zeus, which will be in another column. See them for rubber-tire rigs and tally-boats. Several documents were filed for record late Saturday in the county recorder's office at Riverside which may mean a great deal to Orange county. A day or two ago a deed was recorded transferring from J. R. Newberry and wife of Los Angeles to the Rincon water and power company some 350 acres of water bearing land in and around the town of Rincon. This transaction was not of itself enough to attract unusual attention, as big real estate deals have been frequent of late. Other documents in the shape of water appropriations, which were filed Saturday afternoon, are what lend importance to the deed mentioned. The Rincon water and power company, which purchased the land, which has made the locations referred to, is incorporated under the laws of Delaware. It is capitalized for a half million dollars. J. Ross Clark is president and Leo Sutor is secretary. The directors are J. Ross Clark, L. W. Blinn, Lee W. Foster, J. R. Newberry and Ralph Luddington. The notices of location or appropriation of water set up a claim to 15,000 inches of water flowing in the Santa Ana river at the point of location and not previously located. The point of diversion is close to the point where Chino creek enters the Santa Ana river. The purposes for which said water is claimed are for the irrigation and domestic use on land lying below the mouth of Santa Ana canyon and extending from the town of Whittier, in the county of Los Angeles, to and including the Rancho San Joaquin in Orange county. Just what the new company has in view or what its purposes are in making the wholesale purchase of land that it has and then following that move up by the appropriation of about all the water in sight in the Santa Ana river at the point of diversion, as well as claiming all the water out of sight flowing underground, is not known, but it is understood that it means the company has acquired rights in the San Joaquin ranch and the purpose is to put that large tract under irrigation. That this wholesale appropriation of the water is sure to lead to a hot legal battle is quite certain, in the opinion of those informed on water rights down the river, for there are other STOLE A CHECK. A. D. Austin was arrested in Los Angeles on Tuesday evening by Deputy Sheriff Worden, assisted by Deputy Sheriff Bush of Santa Ana, on a warrant charging grand larceny. The offense was committed at Fullerton, and consisted of the theft of a bank check for $495.13, the property of P. A. Schumacher. Austin tried to cash it at Santa Ana, but failed. He then went to Los Angeles. Schumacher swore out a warrant and informed the officers where Austin could be found, and his arrest followed. He was taken to Santa Ana yesterday.

The State Sunday School convention will be held there on those dates, and the International party of five workers, every person a specialist, including a Primary worker, will be present. There is great interest throughout the State in this meeting, and there will no doubt be many hundreds of earnest Sunday school workers who will make the pilgrimage to the convention at that time.

Governor Gage's recent action in dropping Mrs. Adina Mitchell from the state school board will commend itself to all who know the condition of affairs in that institution as a blessing both to the school and the state. Since her appointment by Governor Budd six years ago she has kept the institution in a constant turmoil by her efforts to make it a source of notoriety for herself. Her recent efforts to pose as an "expert reformer" and "student of penology" are so overdone that they are transparent even to the uninitiated. By her removal the state school is relieved of an incubus which has placed years behind the high standing it had attained when Dr. Lindley retired from the superintendency. But Dr. Lindley is still on the board and is its president. Associated with him is Hon. James Clark of Pasadena, who has now served almost two years as trustee and has shown himself to be a man of sound judgment and integrity and strong in his determination to do everything possible to make the school what it should be. The appointee on the board, Charles Prager, is unknown to us, but he has the reputation of being an honest, upright and successful business man and these qualifications fit him eminently for a trusteeship in such an institution. The board of trustees passes upon the business matters and in a general way exercises control over the management of the institution, but it is by no means necessary that it shall be made up of penal experts; certainly not of would-be experts. Under the new board viz., Dr. Lindley, with his great experience and knowledge, Mr. Clark and Mr. Prager, with their honesty of purpose, good business sense and judgment, the present efficient management will certainly carry the school to a stage of excellence and efficiency not before equaled.—Whittier News.

The coroner promptly paid from the dead man's pile the $12 due for expenses and discharged the jury. The 13 remaining bothered him. He argued that to turn that $13 over to the county, to be held in trust for the man's possible relatives, would be the same as throwing it away. The man was a stranger in those parts. Possibly he had no friends. The coroner was equal to the occasion, however. He declared himself dissatisfied with the verdict and called the jury together again. They sat on the body a second time and found exactly the same verdict, but the coroner's mind was at ease. The $25 was exhausted."—Washington Star. Less Hopeful For Himself.

Suit was brought to secure judgment for $13,-785 alleged to have become due on matured bonds, which have not been paid. The Court says: "The view announced in the case of Miller against the Perris irrigation district are reaffirmed in this case. The contention of the defendant and intervenors that the bonds to which coupons were attached were void because of alleged irregularities are without merit; and judgment is entered for the plaintiff."
