J. H. Cole of Bolsa has filed his petition with the supervisors praying that his land be excluded from the Bolsa drainage district, inasmuch as the same is not susceptible of drainage by the system of works employed. Mr. Cole's land lies above the plane of saturation at this point, and has been reclaimed in large part by the existence of the Bolsa Chica Land company's dock erected across the channel at that point. The dock is fitted with automatic gates which open at the ebb of the tide, and close with its flow. Thus the plane of saturation has been lowering for a year, and this has resulted in the reclamation of much valuable land for Mr. Cole and others.
Many farmers within the drainage district have recently brought suit against the tax collector for the recovery of money paid for taxes therein. The reason for all this is the fact that the drainage district was not formed for the purposes set forth in its original petition, but for the purpose of seeking to destory the land company's property at that point.
In this they have failed, and now that they see taxes and other expenses piling up, are anxious to get out of it.
We know Mr. Cole's land is not susceptible to drainage by the district, nor was it at the time of the formation of the district. That his land will be set out of it seems to admit of no doubt. The hearing upon his petition comes up on September 3d.
COMMISSIONER EVANS has prepared
DIRTY BIRD THAT FOULS ITS OWN NEST
Mr. Armor Makes a Vigorous Rejoinder to Mr. Sherwood in the Water Controversy.
EDITOR GAZETTE:—Sherwood's effort to parry the staggering blow aimed at his mudslinging, was a sorry exhibition of feeble wit. The incongruity of his making the undersigned "the hero of the tale" of what happened to a little mudslinger at Oberlin is shown by the fact that the writer served in the United States army long prior to the discomfiture of that small boy in 1870. Even if the undersigned had been that little besmeared victim of his own misdeeds, the illustration would have been just as pat for Sherwood's present predicament, with the added humiliation that he would have been represented as having no better sense at maturity than the writer had in early boyhood.
An incident that happened in camp will also illustrate the futility of a man's denying what hundreds of people saw take place. A soldier by the name of Stokes, who was continually bragging about being handy with his dukes, one day, while in an ugly mood from drink, insulted a young fellow, whose name was Hart, and called him vile names. As there was no objection on the part of the officers, a ring was soon formed down on the flat near the brook and the two men met in fistic combat in the presence of the whole camp, gathered on the slope overlooking the bottom. After sparring a while for an opening, Hart's fist suddenly shot out like a catapult and went Stokes, all in a heap. He scrambled to his feet, denying that he had been hit or that he had fallen down, and appealed to the crowd to see that he had a square, stand-up fight. The second round was very similar to the first—even to the denials of falling down and the desire for a square, stand-up fight.
And yet Sherwood in his last article: "He will find he tries to ascertain the truth I still stand back of every state that I have made, and am ready discuss any phase of the situation that he is not inclined to do; making personal attacks upon self;" for all the world like S who never went down and come to clamor for a square, stand-fight!
Farther along he says: "I gave as the chief reason for this chase, that 'our engineers' that the Durkee ranch was taken to the situation.'" Armor never anything of the kind; the enemy never made a statement to effect; they were not consulted in the matter. He says: "Neither seems to be still very much game." So does the devilish affairs of this world; and yetians do not cease fighting because he will not lie down after He charges that the impression conveyed "that we got a confluent flow of 1,000 extra inches of water during summer time," which is so far as the officers of the company are concerned. "What we was the right to use was Durkee used to irrigate him with," as Sherwood himself. The amount so used was 1,000 and his right to it was as good and perfect as any other river. One of the advantages by this purchase was that manipulate this 1,000 inches own benefit. As C. C. Chapman in his annual address: "The possession of this propertyance of water, was used until the spring and its use disappeared later, and the thousand incursed into the river for use. Other advantages have been treated at other times, and certainly be seen by any fair-minded son.
He next assails the water character of the ranch, in that no water can be there, and charges "that he been a deliberate intention."
COMMISSIONER EVANS has prepared a statement showing the operations and principal features of the Pension Bureau during the last fiscal year, as compared with former years. Most of the data will be embodied in his annual report, and the statement is prepared for the use of the National encampment of the G.A.R., which will be held before the report is ready. It shows that the number of pensioners on the rolls June 30 last was 997,737, a net gain of 4,206 over last year. The total net loss to the roll during the year was 43,586, which includes 38,153 by death, 853 by remarriage, 1,582 by minors reaching the age of 16, 1,538 by failure to claim pensions, and 1,460 from other causes. A comparative table shows that the roll for the year just closed is the "high-water mark" in the history of the Pension Bureau, the next highest having been reached in 1898. Of the gains to the rolls during the year 3849 were from the war with Spain. The losses included two from the revolution, 215 from the war of 1812, 826 from the war with Mexico, and 544 from the Indian wars. The gains to the roll since 1898 were 13,334 widows of the civil war and 5604 from the Spanish war—total, 18,938. The net gain to the rolls in the four years was 4021.
The fees paid to attorneys amounted to $591,245, an increase of almost $74,000, due to the Spanish war. At least 100,000 of the examinations held during the year resulted unfavorable to the claimants. The amount paid to pensioners under the general law during the year was $67,869,233, a decrease of $1,790,253, from the amount paid last year. It is believed that during the fiscal year of 1902 the payments under the general law will be exceeded by those of pensiohers under the act of 1890. The Spanish war pensioners received $1,175,225, an increase over last year of $842,320, and the pensioners under the act of 1890, as amended May 6, 1900, received $66,973,481, an increase over last year of $1,207,402.
The total disbursements for pensions from July 1, 1790, to June of
the presence of the whose stamp gathered on the slope overlooking the bottom. After sparring a while for an opening, Hart's fist suddenly shot out like a catapult and down went Stokes, all in a heap. He scrambled to his feet, denying that he had been hit or that he had fallen down, and appealed to the crowd to see that he had a square, stand-up fight. The second round was very similar to the first—even to the denials of falling down and the desire for a square, stand-up fight. Then the crowd began to jeer him and ask why he didn't stand up and fight. As Hart found little need of caution he made shorter work of the third round than either of the other two. The spectators turned away in disgust, leaving Stokes to proclaim to those within hearing: "He never hit me; he couldn't get inside my guard. I never went down at all. All I want is a square, stand-up fight."
The moral of the foregoing true story is so patent that it scarcely needs to be applied to the case in hand. Sherwood fell down on every one of his charges against the water companies as completely as did Stokes in the fistic encounter; and just as senselessly he still clamors for a square, stand-up fight, denying that he has fallen down on anything. Two of his methods of falling down on his contentions were pointed out in a previous article, viz: "Either by admitting that he knew nothing about them personally or by quietly dropping them when shown that they were untenable."
Let us look at the particular example picked out by him to prove his upright position, viz: the allegation that the Durkee ranch was offered for $35,000 prior to its purchase. How does he attempt to prove his perpendicularity by that example? Simply by saying that he only asked about certain rumors that were in circulation long before he had anything to say about them. Isn't that statement tantamount to "admitting that he knew nothing about them personally!" Just asked about "these rumors!" What was his reason for asking about "these rumors!" Was it not to reiterate the inneundos, or charges of dishonesty, implied in them against the officials of the companies without incurring any responsibility himself for making such charges? Durkee characterized the one making such statements as an "unmitigated liar." He also challenged Sherwood to meet him in the largest hall in Orange county to establish the truth or falsity of the stories he was circulating. Did he stand up and in his annual address possession of this property;ance of water; was used until the spring and its use discarded into the river for use. Other advantages have been tioned at other times, and likely be seen by any fair-minded son.
He next assails the water character of the ranch; in that no water can be there; and charges "that he been a deliberate intention on the part of so The great trouble with Shen that he catches up Newbern statements; as though contended companies; and then appointed because he cares natural conditions to co-Newberry said: "Above tha Narrows a large body of lately become a swamp; co-tule growth; and largely co-water upon the surface While the Durkee ranch;the greater portion of thas basin; and no such w-Newberry described is visi-surface now; nor ever was-ertheless; it is believed-ranch; lying along tha river; in front of tha moun-escal creek; and extend-Chino creek; below its ju-mill creek and above it-with the river; is in excelle-tor intercept all the drains-great interior basin of tha to yield large quantities when development is u Anyway, nobody has been there has been no steal-ranch; with its water p- well worth its cost; notw-Sherwood's repeated effo-down.

from the amount paid last year. It is believed that during the fiscal year of 1902 the payments under the general law will be exceeded by those of pensiohers under the act of 1890. The Spanish war pensioners received $1,175,225, an increase over last year of $842,320, and the pensioners under the act of 1890, as amended May 6, 1900, received $66,973,481, an increase over last year of $1,207,402.
The total disbursements for pensions from July 1, 1790, to June of this year aggregate $2,763,350,033.
The statement gives the following amounts of money paid pensioners under different administrations:
President Grant's first term, $116,-136,275; average per year, $29,034,-069.
President Grant's second term, $114,395,357; average per year, $28,-598,839.
President Hayes' administration, $145,322,489; average per year, $38,-330,622.
President Garfield's administration, $237,825,070; average per year, $59,456,268.
President Cleveland's first term, $395,636,662; average per year, $76,-409,165.
President Harrison's administration, $517,707,726; average per year, $129,926,931.
President Cleveland's second term, $557,950,407; average per year, $139,487,602.
President McKinley's administration (first) $560,000,547; average per year, $140,000,137.
John Johnson has our thanks for samples of melons raised without irrigation. Mr. Johnson has the finest tomato and sweet potato vines he ever saw, and his walnut trees have this season made a growth of six feet all without irrigation. He believes many farmers ruin their land with water. He wants no irrigation in his, but is a firm believer in thorough cultivation.
his reason for asking about "these rumors?" Was it not to reiterate the inneundos, or charges of dishonesty, implied in them against the officials of the companies without incurring any responsibility himself for making such charges? Durkee characterized the one making such statements as an "unmitigated liar." He also challenged Sherwood to meet him in the largest hall in Orange county to establish the truth or falsity of the stories he was circulating. Did he stand up and face his own responsibility in the matter? No. Like his forefather, Adam, he laid the blame on somebody else and said that "at this late date it is a matter of minor importance what the ranch could have been bought for, who got the money, or even whether we got value received."
If that isn't falling down on such contention, it is because he was already so low on the subject that he could fall no farther.
Most of the other seven or eight contentsions, previously mentioned as instances of abandoned charges, were quietly dropped when shown that they were untenable. For instance, the accusation of bias in Kellogg has never been alluded to since the charge was refuted. H. Clay Kellogg, who was brought up on the west side of the river, who took his early lessons in surveying under Crowther, who did thousands of dollars worth of work for the A. U. W. Co., whose relatives still abound in the west country and who himself owns stock in the system and property within the territory irrigated by its ditches, this man was held up to scorn by Sherwood as unworthy of the confidence of the stockholders of the A. U. W. Co. because, forsooth, he owns a house and lot in Santa Ana watered by that city! No wonder these contentsions are quietly dropped one after the other as soon as each is ther has the enlargement of jon ditch been determined any conditions agreed to as known to the writer been no consideration of since. He could have much from the astronomical speech. His question Scully right of way and conference is incompetent and immaterial. The from the Narrows to gate does not necessitate joint action upon the other down through Horsewood.
Sherwood feels aggrieved one should even think that not survey a pie with up, and he refers to Guarantor for his trust Just think of it! The seven or eight months ago take Crowther's official peals to him for a charm Well!! Time certainly venges. However, as Creed the world before Scully alluded to the undersign of shares as a "nominal" stock of his water and said: "I beg to inform we want no carpet bagging advice on this side of the What is the exact limit nominal and a—regual What disabilities attack interest,and what regular interest? Are aifications and characterize the size of his interest company? By what auction he "beg to inform" the Did the Board of Direcution passed by a major a regular meeting,a
Familiarized! And yet Sherwood says this last article: "He will find, ifuries to ascertain the truth, that will stand back of every statement that I have made, and am ready to discuss any phase of the situation that he is not inclined to dodge by taking personal attacks upon myself;" for all the world like Stokes, so never went down and continued clamor for a square, stand-up fight!
Further along he says: "Armor live as the chief reason for the purpose, that 'our engineers' stated that the Durkee ranch was the 'key to the situation.'" Armor never said anything of the kind; the engineers never made a statement to that direct; they were not consulted at all the matter. He says: "Newberry seems to be still very much in the same." So does the devil in the affairs of this world; and yet Christams do not cease fighting him because he will not lie down and quit. The charges that the impression was conveyed "that we got a continuous flow of 1,000 extra inches of water in the summer time," which is not true, so far as the officers of the companies are concerned. "What we did get was the right to use the water that Durkee used to irrigate his ranch with," as Sherwood himself says.
The amount so used was 1,000 inches, and his right to it was as complete and perfect as any other right in the river. One of the advantages gained by this purchase was the right to manipulate this 1,000 inches for our own benefit. As C. C. Chapman said in his annual address: "Being in possession of this property, abundance of water, was used upon it in the spring and its use discontinued water, and the thousand inches turned into the river for use below."
Other advantages have been mentioned at other times, and can readily be seen by any fair-minded person.
He next assails the water-bearing character of the ranch, intimating that no water can be developed there, and charges "that there has been a deliberate intention to de-
wood "to inform" the undersigned? Doesn't he know that, without such authority, he is but an insignificant piece of humanity and cannot "inform" one of his own stockholders what to do and what not to do, much less one of his peers? Who are meant by "we" in the foregoing quotation? Are "we" entitled by law or equity to demand what "we want"? Is it possible for one corporation to declare the representative of another corporation "persona non grata," just as governments do? What are carpetbaggers, anyway, in a case like this? Is the stigma which is implied in the term, meant to attach to the length of residence, amount of capital possessed, or (which is very much the same thing) the size of the interest in the water company? On the supposition that there really have been carpetbaggers around, what particular advice is so objectionable as to be thus summarily ruled out? Where is the exact dead-line designated as "the sand-wash"; is it between Anaheim and Fullerton, or is the Santa Ana river meant as such? Will the engineer please run over the line and mark it with yellow flags, so as to warn unsophisticated carpetbaggers of the impending danger that lurks beyond?
What made Sherwood, in his first article against the water company, take up the cudgels in behalf of the small stockholders, if he now considers it disreputable to have only a nominal interest in the stock of a water company? After all, isn't it a little bit snobbish to parade his own wealth, and a trifle mean to twit the undersigned with his poverty?
What though on hamely fare we dine, Wear hoddin gray, and knaves their wine. A man's a man for a'that. For a'that, and a'a'that. Their tinsel show, and a'a'that—The honest man, though e'er sae poor, Is king o'men for a'a'that.

He next assails the water-bearing character of the ranch, intimating that no water can be developed there, and charges "that there has been a deliberate intention to deceive on the part of somebody." The great trouble with Sherwood is that he catches up Newberry's boom statements, as though coming from the companies, and then feels disappointed because he cannot find the natural conditions to correspond. Newberry said: "Above the Rincon Narrows a large body of land has lately become a swamp, covered with tule growth, and largely covered with water upon the surface thereof." While the Durkee ranch occupies the greater portion of the Rincon basin, and no such wetness as Newbury described is visible on the surface now, nor ever was; yet, nevertheless, it is believed that the ranch, lying along the Santa Ana river, in front of the mouth of Temescal creek, and extending across Chino creek, below its junction with Mill creek and above its junction with the river, is in excellent position to intercept all the drainage of the great interior basin of the river, and to yield large quantities of water when development is undertaken. Anyway, nobody has been deceived, there has been no steal, and the ranch, with its water privileges, is well worth its cost, notwithstanding Sherwood's repeated efforts to cry it down. "It is a dirty bird that befouls its own nest."
Sherwood, with the persistency of a monomaniac, asks: "Does Armor mean to deny that it is the intention to build a joint ditch from the Narrows to a point on the river opposite the head gate of the S. A. V. I. Co., utilizing the right of way of the A. U. W. Co. where necessary?" A similar foolish, fussy question was answered January 3, as follows: "Neither has the enlargement of the Cajon ditch been determined upon, nor any conditions agreed to." So far as known to the writer, there has been no consideration of the subject since. He could have gathered as much from the astronomical figure of speech. His question about the Scully right of way and the Irvine conference is incompetent, irrelevant and immaterial. The right of way from the Narrows to the division gate does not necessarily compel joint action upon the other, especially through Horseshoe bend.
Respectfully, S. Armor.
Attractive Women.
All women sensibly desire to be attractive. Beauty is the stamp of health because it is the outward manifestation of inner purity. A healthy woman is always attractive, bright and happy. When every drop of blood in the veins is pure a beauteous flush is on the cheek. But when the blood is impure, moroseness, bad temper and a sallow complexion tells the tale of sickness, all too plainly. And women today know there is no beauty without health. Wine of Cardui crowns women with beauty and attractiveness by making strong and healthy those organs which make her a woman. Try Wine of Cardui, and in a month your friends will hardly know you.
BATHING IN A WATERING-TROUGH.
A LADY RIDING A WHEEL TAKES A HEADER AND GOES KERPLASH INTO THE WATER.
As I was driving one evening,
Without thought of fun or strife,
I saw the funniest happening
That I ever saw in my life.
Two young ladies were out shopping—
I presume, to buy some bread—
One on her wheel was looping:
The other on the sidewalk tread.
The one on the wheel took a header,
Which is not so uncommon to see;
But the way she splashed the water
Was a funny sight to me.
You know, here in Anaheim,
Our streets are generally dry;
But at this particular time
There was a water-trough nearby.
This beautiful young lady
Never thought of any harm,
Until her wheel went crazy,
Which caused her some alarm.
But, before she could recover,
She went off on her side;
And, when the scene was over,
Her clothes were too wet to ride.
It's a sight I'm sure worth seeing.
If this phrase you will excuse,
To see a lady go in bathing,
And get wet all but her shoes.
Now, ladles, let me warn you.
Though your clothes you do not doff.
Tis against the city ordinance.
To bathe in a watering-trough.

The right of way from the Narrows to the division gate does not necessarily compel joint action upon the other, especially down through Horseshoe bend.
Sherwood feels aggrieved that any one should even think that he could not survey a pie without eating it up, and he refers to Crowther as guarantor for his trustworthiness, Just think of it! The man who, seven or eight months ago, sought to take Crowther’s official life, now appeals to him for a character. Well! Well!! Time certainly hath its revenges. However, as Crowther worked the world before Sherwood was born, it is more than probable that he is now working that engineer for the benefit of the water company. It is barely possible that, in so doing, he is beating the company more than the engineer; but that is for those interested to take cognizance of.
For the second time Sherwood has alluded to the undersigned’s holding of shares as a “nominal interest in the stock of his water company,” and said: “I beg to inform him that we want no carpetbaggers nor their advice on this side of the sandwash.” What is the exact limit between a nominal and a regular interest? What disabilities attach to a nominal interest, and what privileges to a regular interest? Are a man’s qualifications and character gauged by the size of his interest in the water company? By what authority does he “beg to inform” the undersigned?

Flithlest Place In the World.
Port-au-Prince, the capital, is—by consent of all who have had opportunity of comparing it with other cities—the fifthest place in the world. The town was laid out by the French, and the streets are wide. It is only their great width that makes them passable, for the roadway before his dwelling is every householder's rubbish shoot, and slab sided pigs and starvling dogs perform all the sanitary offices for the town of Port-au-Prince save! The rainy season when heavier storms occur.

Filthiest Pince In the World.
Port-au-Prince, the capital, is by consent of all who have had opportunity of comparing it with other cities—the fifthest place in the world. The town was laid out by the French, and the streets are wide. It is only their great width that makes them passable, for the roadway before his dwelling is every householder's rubbish shoot, and slab sided pigs and starvling dogs perform all the sanitary offices for the town of Port-au-Prince save! the rainy season, when a heavier storm than usual comes to lash the open drains. In consequence the populace live in an atmosphere of combined cesspool and ash pit, which by all the laws of hygiene should produce chronic plague.
The free and independent negro leads the life that most nearly approaches his ideal. They have a proverb in the country that "only white men, black women and asses work," and there is truth in it. The black man lies around all day sleeping in the sun. His utmost effort is to play dee or watch a cock-fight, but sleep is his favorite occupation, and he can do that better than anything else. In the country districts the old plantations have long since slipped back into the luxuriant overgrowth of the forest. In town any trading done is by the women and by foreigners. Undisturbed by the white man, to whom he is insolent, the town bred negro is pacific enough. The only exertion demanded of him is to avoid the attentions of the police—Chambers' Journal.
Uncle Mingo and the Waiter.
Uncle Mingo was in town a day or two ago. It had been a long time since the old man had been to Savannah, and he rambled over the streets all the morning, impressed with the wonderful things he saw.
Naturally toward the midday he began to feel a little tired and very hungry, so as he passed in front of one of the eating houses for colored people, of which there are several in the neighborhood of the Plant system depot, the succulent piles of edibles in the windows offered too great a temptation to be resisted. He entered the restaurant and sat down to a table.
"All right, sah," said the affable waiter, coming up. "Wot'll it be?"
"I want," said Uncle Mingo unetuously, "some o' dat fried fish een d winder an a piece o' dat ple."
"Yes, sah. Wot else?"
"I want some o' dat fried chicken, too, an some o' dem doughnuts."
"Yes, sah. Wot else?"
"I want some o' dat ham and some town bread."
"Yes, sah. Wot else?"
"An I want a cup o' tea."
"Cup o' tea. Yes, sah. Wot kind o' tea?"
"Wot kin o' tea I want?" replied the old man, with a severe look. "Wot kin you 'spec' I want? I want sto' tea, sto' tea. You tink I come on de train all de way from Possum Holler for to drink saccafrax?"—Savannah News.

STOPS PAIN
Athena, Tenn., Jan. 27, 1901.
Ever since the first appearance of my menses they were very irregular and I suffered with great pain in my hips, back, stomach and legs, with terrible bearing down pains in the abdomen.
During the past month I have been taking Wine of Cardul and Theodore's Black-Draught, and I passed the monthly period without pain for the first time in years.
NAMHIE DAVIS.
What is life worth to a woman suffering Hike Nannie Davis suffered? Yet there are women in thousands of homes to-day who are bearing those terrible menstrual pains in silence. If you are one of these we want to say that this same WINE or CARDUI will bring you permanent relief. Console yourself with the knowledge that 1,000,000 women have been completely cured by Wine of Cardul. These women suffered from leucorrhoea, irregular menses, headache, backache, and bearing down pains. Wine of Cardul will stop all these aches and pains for you. Purchase a $1.00 bottle of Wine of Cardul to-day and take it in the privacy of your home.

A Tutor Who Maintained His Dignity.
Dr. Chalmers always had a high sense of personal dignity. When a young man, he was engaged as tutor in a private family. His young lady pupils resented his strictness, and the mother foolishly took sides with her daughters. In petty spite when company was invited to the house young Chalmers was shut out from the table, and dinner was sent to his room.
He made no protest against the treatment, but when it was attempted again he told the servant he had ordered a dinner at a neighboring town and should need nothing. When this had been done a few times, an explosion came. The master of the house called Chalmers to account for insulting his family. Chalmers replied that he had been insulted by banishment from the table. The young teacher conquered and ever after held his place as one of the family at all social gatherings.
No Apparent Cause For Offense.
It was the third day out on an ocean liner, and some of the passengers were just getting acquainted. A lady who had made the trip many times lay comfortably in her steamer chair, when the pretty and stylishly clad daughter of a newly rich family stopped near her, and they drifted into conversation. Presently the lady bowed to a pale faced man who walked by.
"Who was that?" inquired the girl.
"That was Signor Slambangski, the famous planist," replied the lady, who then went on to speak of the probable performers at the inevitable concert at the journey's end.
"Oh, are there any musicianes on board?" eagerly inquired the girl.
"I beg your pardon?" said the lady interrogatively.
The girl gazed at her inquiringly.
"What for?" she asked.—New York Mall and Express.
