To say that the trade which comes to Anaheim of a Sunday morning is of the trashy sort, as suggested by some of our prohibition friends, is hardly in conformity with the truth; for while it may be true that possibly some of it is of this undesirable character, a deal of it may be classed as among the most desirable that comes to our city. If it lay in our power to cut out this undesirable trade we should do so with one full swoop, as it were. But to say that the desirable trade must be sacrificed because of the minimum of this traffic, is a matter which meets with scant favor among our merchants. This trade continues until noon, when all places of business, or nearly all, close their doors for the day. Notwithstanding the fact that saloons are permitted to maintain open doors during the entire day, we hazard the statement that there is less drunkenness to be seen upon our streets, and fewer of the undesirable hangers on of these places than is to be found in many of the so-called dry towns that can be mentioned. It may be true that an occasional inebriate is seen here and we are sorry for that fact, but we have seen similar cases, strange as it may appear, in any one of the half dozen dry towns above referred to. If Anaheim's saloons could be limited, to say four in number—to places conducted by temperate men who have a decent regard for the rights of others, we could almost guarantee that not an intoxicated person could be seen upon our streets from one month's end to the other. These five places which can easily be a frostless climate than in a frost-proof hybrid any time. First the water company purchased the Yorba reservoir site at an outlay of $5000, and then it paid Engineer Eaton $1500 to condemn it as worthless. This is catching the stockholders goin' an comin' with a vengeance. UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Plans will at once be drawn for the new building to be erected with the $250,000 just appropriated by the legislature. John Galen Howard, supervising architect of the university, will return next week from Boston, where he has just completed the Majestic, said to be one of the most beautiful and most complete theatres in America. He will early begin work on the new building. The concrete work has been begun on the new open-air Greek theatre which William R. Hearst is building for the university at a cost of $40,-000. It will be ready for use on commencement day, May 11. The seating capacity will be 8000. George R. Carpenter, professor of rhetoric in Columbia university, formerly of the faculty of Harvard university and later of the Massachusetts institute of technology, will come to Berkeley next summer for the summer session. He has written or edited many text books and contributed much to various journals. Another member of the English faculty of the summer session will be professor Robert Herrick of the department of rhetoric of the university of Chicago. He has achieved much literary reputation by his novels and short stories—In particular the "Web of Life," a novel which has been much admired for its remarkable picture of the Chicago of today. Among his other books are "The Man Who Wins," "Literary Love Letters and Other Stories," The Gospel of Freedom," and "Love's Dilemmas." The third member of the English staff will be Assistant Professor Chauncey W. Wells, who directs the training in English composition in the university.

Dun & Co.'s Monthly Review of Trade Conditions for February in Southern California. Business throughout the country is generally ahead of last year in volume. February bank clearings are the largest on record and gross railway earnings were enormous. Foreign trade continues very heavy. Prices for commodities did not alter materially during the month. In our immediate district present business conditions are most favorable. The coming of the rain has relieved the anxiety of the agriculturist and proved a boom to stockmen. Graff which had been of slow growth on a count of unusually cold dry weather in January and February was beginning to turn yellow and pasturage was short. Now with just average spring rains and sunshine the large crops predicted earlier in the season for Southern California will be insured. Work in bean and beet fields is progressing with renewed confidence. The strike of the beet thinning crews laid work somewhat at Oxnard where acreage is larger than ever before. It is now conceded that the orange crop suffered little injury from this season, but that lemons were considerably damaged. Deciduous fruit trees and vines are benefitted by cool and are reported in excellent condition, just bursting into bloom in many localities. Celery shipments for the season have ended. About 950 carloads went forward from the peatlands; quality and prices good. Orange shipping is now brisk 125-150 carloads daily. Records show that to date about 1000 carloads less have been shipped this season than last. Cold weather and cheap prices for samples have effected to some extent Eastern orange market. It is estimated that one-third of the lima bean crop still remains in the section unsold. However, the spring trade demand, it is thought, will ease absorb this without lowering price quotations, leaving the market well cleaned up for new crop. Cured fruit market is quiet. Quotation occasional inebriate is seen here and we are sorry for that fact, but we have seen similar cases, strange as it may appear, in any one of the half dozen dry towns above referred to. If Anaheim's saloons could be limited, to say four in number—to places conducted by temperate men who have a decent regard for the rights of others, we could almost guarantee that not an intoxicated person could be seen upon our streets from one month's end to the other. These four places, which can easily be named, make a practice, each of them, of disposing of no liquor to men already under its influence; but with other groggeries plying the inebriate with the stupifying fumes of more and more liquor, the good offices of these men are set absolutely at naught. These groggeries should be unlicensed—the fewer of them we have the better. All sorts of liquors we are informed are sold at the brewery, and this traffic, it seems to us, should be discounted and discontinued. A brewery is not the proper place for dispensing whisky and other liquors, and this traffic should be suppressed. We have no doubt that a number of our citizens favor prohibition, but according to our point of view it would seem that what they are striving for may be more easily reached by high license and the weeding out of the lower class of groggeries than by an ordinance providing for prohibition, which would probably have the effect of closing the more respectable places and keeping in vogue the other places as "speakeasies" and "blind-pigs." We are ready to meet our prohibition friends half way in the solution of the liquor question. Let us limit our saloons to four in number, adequately licensed and the present ordinances rigidly enforced as to wineries and other establishments of the sort. Some time ago in commenting upon the report that the Department of Agriculture had succeeded in developing a frost-proof orange, attention was directed to the statement of one of the experts of the department, before a congressional committee, to the effect that no such orange has been produced but that experts hope to produce one by further experiments. It is evident from that statement that the original report was an exaggeration. It appears from the statements before the committee that the experimenters have succeeded in developing a frost-proof lemon and that they are now trying to convert the lemon into an orange. An appropriation from congress to continue the experiments was obtained and doubtless the work is going forward. achieved much literary reputation by his novels and short stories—in particular the "Web of Life," a novel which has been much admired for its remarkable picture of the Chicago of today.

The third member of the English staff will be Assistant Professor Chauncey W. Wells, who directs the training in English composition in the university. What is said to be the greatest discovery in vertebrate palaeontology made during the last decade is represented by several large collections of extinct sea reptiles, from the Triassic of Northern California; recently added to the university palaeontological museum. These remains represent an entirely new fauna containing representatives of several groups of reptiles entirely new to science. Nearly all of these forms are primitive types, the study of which will throw much light upon the ancestry of some of the best-known reptilian groups. The primitive Ichthyosaurian reptiles in the collection seem to be collecting links between an original land or shore type and a later group of sea forms confined to deep water. This valuable material has accumulated so rapidly that the university has been unable to meet the expense even of preparing all the specimens for study. The cost of chipping them from the rock is as great as the original cost of collection. During the past term the university was obliged to box up and store away the most complete specimen that had been found because its preparation would require more work and time than was available for palaeontology for the whole year. An opportunity to add largely to the world's knowledge of descent and of the true history of the adaptation of species to environment awaits the friend of the university who will give $2000 to meet the expense of working up these remarkable reptilian collections. Governor George C. Pardee and President David Starr Jordan of Stanford University will be the speakers on Charter Day, March 23—the forty-third anniversary of the founding of the university. New York, March 15.-J. Whitaker Wright, the London promoter, who is accused of being concerned in colossal raids in connection with the organization of various corporations, was arrested to-day on the arrival of the French line steamer La Lorraine from Havre. The arrest was made by two central office detectives at the request of the London police. Wright was taken to police headquarters and later to the Tombs Police Court, where he was arraigned before a magistrate and turned over to the United States authorities. He was then taken to the Ludlow street jail. With Wright on the steamship was a full, good looking young woman, who said she was the niece of the prisoner. Her name on the passenger list was Miss F. Browne. Wright, when told that he was under arrest, showed no evidence of excitement and said he was a friend of Orange shipping is now brisk 125-150 carloads daily.

The robbers, two in numbers and both small men, wore blazes. They first entered the door of Loestaus' fine cafe opposite Postoffice, advanced half the length long room and went back. Presently they re-entered by the front desk. One went to the cashier's desk, while the other attempted to rob guests at tables. The latter held a revolver toward Dr. J. H. Turner, who was eating his supper, and told him throw up his hands. The doctor was surprised and hesitated, whereas the robber fired full in his face, killing the doctor instantly and scattering blood and brains all over the corner of the cafe. Then the desperado tacked another guest, G. B. Bishk, and shot him in the left side. Without securing any booty they filmed. Bishop was taken to hospital, and he is in a critical condition. He came recently from Succity City, where his brother lives. Turner was about 30 years old from Iowa. He was a graduate Princeton and of Rush, and has experts of the department, before a congressional committee, to the effect that no such orange has been produced but that experts hope to produce one by further experiments. It is evident from that statement that the original report was an exaggeration. It appears from the statements before the committee that the experimenters have succeeded in developing a frost-proof lemon and that they are now trying to convert the lemon into an orange. An appropriation from congress to continue the experiments was obtained and doubtless the work is going forward. In the meantime new reports on the subject are going the rounds of the Eastern press. Recently a dispatch from Washington to the Baltimore American said: "H. J. Weber of the Agricultural Department declares that orange trees are now living and bearing fruit in Baltimore and other places in a similar latitude. Mr. Weber predicts that before the department gets through with its experiments with the hybridization of the orange the people of Pennsylvania and New York will be able to cultivate and market their own oranges." One part of that story is about as good as another. If it be true that orange trees are now living and bearing fruit in Baltimore it may be equally true that when the Agricultural Department gets through with its experiments the people of New York and Pennsylvania will be able to cultivate and market their own oranges. We note, however, that there is no great demand for Baltimore oranges in any market, nor is it likely there will ever be much of a demand for New York oranges. It is one thing to produce an orange, but quite another to produce oranges that are fit to eat and in quantities that are commercially profitable. It is to be noted that while one set of experts are trying to produce a frost-proof orange from a lemon, another set is engaged in trying to breed a feathery chicken. The success of one experiment will be about as valuable as the success of the other. The frost-less orange and the feathery chicken will be pleasing varieties for poultry fanciers and fancy orchardists, but neither is likely to have much effect on the public demand. The New Yorker or Pennsylvanian who wishes to grow oranges had better come to California and start in. There is more safety in Wright was taken to police headquarters and later to the Tombs Police Court, where he was arraigned before a magistrate and turned over to the United States authorities. He was then taken to the Ludlow street jail. With Wright on the steamship was all, good looking young woman, who said she was the niece of the prisoner. Her name on the passenger list was Miss F. Browne. Wright, when told that he was under arrest, showed no evidence of excitement and said he was a friend of King Edward. His principal concern was to avoid publicity and he asked that his arrest be kept from the newspapers. Wright and his companion were entered on the original passenger list as M. Androni and Mille. Androni. That Wright did not expect to be arrested is shown by the fact that after the steamship left Havre he told the pursuer that a mistake had been made in making the tickets out in the name of Androni. His name accordingly was changed and appeared on the additional list as J. W. Wright, and that of the woman as Miss F. Browne. "Pa, will you answer me a question?" "Certainly, my boy." "Well, is the world round?" "Yes, of course!" "Then, if the world is round, how can it come to an end?" Pa gave it up. He—Am I good enough for you, darling? She—No, George; but you are too good for any other girl. STATE OF OHIO, CITY OF TOLEDO. LUCAS COUNTY. FRANK J. CHENEY makes oath that he is senior partner of the firm of F. J.

Buffalo, N. Y., March 15.—Witnesses who were in the Burdick home just before and just after the discovery of the murder of Edwin L. Burdick will be called to the stand at to-morrow's session of the inquest, and Mrs. Hull may be recalled. The Express to-morrow will print an interview with a person who at one time was a stockholder in the Buffalo Envelope Company and for twelve years a close friend of Edwin L. Burdick. The interview in part is as follows: "I had been acquainted with Mr. Burdick for twelve years prior to his death. I came in almost daily contact with him, and for some time past had been more or less in his confidence. Though I knew in the early part of December that Mr. Burdick had made a will cutting off his wife, it was not until shortly after Christmas that I learned anything about the divorce proceedings. "I cannot help believing, from all I heard from Mr. Burdick, that the motive of the crime might be the desire to suppress the scandal that would have been incident to the trial of a divorce suit. Soon after Mr. Burdick told me of his having begun divorce proceedings he showed me a letter he had just received from New York. In this letter the writer was trying hard to bring about a reconciliation between Mr. Burdick and his wife. She pleaded with Burdick to take 'Allie back.' The writer also wrote in this letter something that Burdick construed as a threat that unless there was a reconcilation there would be a double suicide. I cannot remember the exact words, but they were something like this: 'Do you want to put an end to all our lives?' Mr. Burdick pointed out that particular part of the letter to me and said, 'That means suicide. Well, let them go ahead and do it.' It seems to me that this letter ought to be found. What has become of it? Did he have it in his desk in his den at his house and was it taken by the murderer when rifling the drawer that was found open? Another paper that should be found is a list of twenty meeting places that" DOUBLE-BARRELED CANNON. A Curious Relic of the Days of the Civil War. In one of the city squares of Athens, Ga., stands an interesting relic of the Civil War—what is probably the only double-barreled cannon ever made. It was designed by a resident of Athens for use in the Confederate service, the idea being to discharge a projectile from each barrel simultaneously, the projectiles to be connected by a chain. No chain was found to be sufficiently strong, however, to withstand the strain, and the weapon was never tested in actual warfare. The cannon is made of cast iron, and was molded at one of the local foundries. It is of 3-inch caliber, having a diameter across the muzzles of 8 inches, and across the barrels of 13 inches, while it is 55 inches in length. It is provided with what is familiarly known as a "touch-hole" in the breech, connecting with both barrels, so that it could be discharged by lighting a fuse, if desired. The idea of the inventor was to connect the balls by a chain several feet in length, the ends of the chain being fastened into each ball by staples. Chain-shot had often been used in naval battles to carry away the rigging of an enemy. The Athens cannon was discharged once after being built, but unfortunately one barrel for some reason did not "go off." The force of the explosion of other barrel tore the chain from the ball which remained, and gave a curved motion to the projectile. As a result of this accident, it was considered too dangerous to adopt for use, and was stored away, finally being discovered only a few years ago in a shed. It was then mounted upon its present carriage, and placed in the park for an ornament—Scientific American. So Sweet and Pleasing In Taste! Mrs. C.

Judge Wallace of the Superior Court has rendered a decision which will be of interest to fruit growers and packers. The case was that of F. Giannini vs. Seropian Bros., fruit packers of Fresno. The plaintiff had contracted to deliver his crop of dried fruit to the defendants, one condition being that it should be marketable. When Giannini's product was delivered it was rejected on the ground that it was too wet. In the suit which followed testimony was introduced to show that the grower had used unripe and overripe fruit, and that it had been sprinkled with water just before shipment. Expert evidence was given for the defense to determine that fruit treated under such conditions was merchantable; to show that packers frequently accept such fruit as of average grade, and that growers often sprinkle fruit upon delivery to improve its appearance; and that a small amount of moisture does not depreciate the quality. It was also shown that sugar gives it the appearance of being wet. The court held that the conditions were not sufficient to warrant the packing company rejecting the fruit, and that the grower had not overstepped usual methods of preparing and curing the fruit. Insane Man's Deed. St. Louis, March 12.—Adolph Krauss, a German farmer living twenty-one miles west of St. Louis, near Bellefontaine, to-night killed his wife and six children with a sledge hammer. He then knocked himself unconscious with the hammer and at midnight was dying. It is believed that Krauss suddenly became insane. He had the reputation among his neighbors of being a quiet, inoffensive, industrious farmer and no other cause for the crime but insanity has been assigned. About 7 o'clock to-night John Krauss, a brother happened to go to Adolph's house to call. The lights were out, but the door was unlocked and this aroused his suspicion that something was wrong. He entered the house and upon striking a light was horrified to find that there had been a terrible tragedy. From all that can be learned, Adolph Krauss entered the house some time this afternoon armed with a sledge hammer. Without warning he struck his wife in the head, killing her instantly. Then seizing his first child, aged 12, he likewise dealt a murderous blow. The other five children were killed similarly, the last being a six-months-old babe. Krauss then placed the seven bodies side by side on the floor in one room. He then seized the sledge hammer and dealt himself a blow on the skull which fractured it. So Sweet and Pleasing in Taste!

A sharp Nantucket man is said to have got the better of the great defender of the constitution in an amusing way, however. He had a small case which was to be tried at Nantucket one week in June, and he posted Webster's office in great haste. It was a contest with a neighbor over a matter of considerable local interest, and his pride as a litigant was at sake. He told Webster the partiolars and asked what he would charge to conduct the case. "Why," said Webster, "you can't afford to hire me. I should have to stay down there, he whole week, and my fee would be more than the whole case is worth. I couldn't go down there for less than $1,000. I could try every case on the docket as well as one, and it wouldn't cost any more, for one case would take my time for the entire week anyway." "All right, Mr. Webster," quickly responded the Nantucketeter. "Here's your $1,000. You come down, and I'll fix it so you can try every case." Webster was so amused over this proposition that he kept his word. He spent the entire week in Nantucket and appeared on one side or the other in every case that came up for hearing. The shrewd Nantucket hired Daniel out to all his friends who were in litigation and received in return about $1,500, so that he got Webster's services for nothing and made a good profit to Boston Herald.

Washington, March 13.—Secretary Hitchcock of the Interior Department has granted authority for the acquisition of necessary property, rights of way, etc., prior to the construction of irrigation works in five localities. These projects are: Wyoming, Sweet Water Dam; Colorado, Gunnison Tunnel; Nevada, Truckee; Arizona, Salt River reservoir. These projects are estimated to cost $7,000,000 and will provide for the irrigation of about 600,000 acres of arid land. In addition thereto the Gray Bull reservoir project is to be taken up immediately. The construction remains subject to the feasibility of obtaining the necessary rights and acquisition of private claims in such manner as to comply with the act approved June 17, 1892. Stockholders Satisfied. Bakersfield, March 12.—About noon to-day a fire destroyed the large tank house, a 100-barrel tank and 800 barrels of oil belonging to the Kern Canyon Oil Company at the Kern oil fields. The fire was caused by the desire of two Eastern stockholders in the company who were visiting the scene to see some crude oil burn and for their benefit a small blaze was started. It was gradually allowed to assume large proportions and a wind coming up it was beyond control and enveloped the works. The loss is about $2500. There was a cry in the streets. People rushed from their doors and strained their eyes on the struggling balloonist fighting for life. Even the poor, panting sufferer in the sick room was forgotten while the family gazed breathless at this strange tragedy of the air. Then they went back to the sick room to tell of the terrible struggle for life they had just witnessed. It did not occur to them that under their very eyes a more terrible, more pathetic struggle was going on daily. There can be nothing more pitiful than the struggle the consumptive makes against disease. The greatest help in this struggle is gained by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It cures obstinate coughs, weak and bleeding lungs, emaciation, and other ailments which if neglected or unskillfully treated find a fatal termination in consumption. "In 1888 one of my daughters was suffering on account of a severe cough, he fever, waiting of flesh and other symptoms of diseased lungs," writes Rev. Joseph H. Feperman, of Bannum Springs, Irvell Co., N.C. "I promptly gave her Dr. R. V. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery with gratifying success, and she now enjoys excellent health. This being true, I hereby heartily endorse your medicines." Accept no substitute for "Golden Medical Discovery." There is nothing "just as good" for diseases of the stomach, blood and lungs. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets assist the action of the "Discovery." All right, Mr. Webster," quickly responded the Nantucketeter. "Here's your $1,000. You come down, and I'll fix it so you can try every case." Webster was so amused over this proposition that he kept his word. He spent the entire week in Nantucket and appeared on one side or the other in every case that came up for hearing. The shrewd Nantucketeter hired Daniel out to all his friends who were in litigation and received in return about $1,500, so that he got Webster's services for nothing and made a good profit to Boston Herald.

A temperance lecturer was strugging against odds in Kentucky," says senator. "He was talking to a notlarge audience that had been turned to the hall by curiosity.

'Because, sir, I've been drinking 75 years, and I'm 90 and am likely live to be 100. I am strong enough lock you if you'll step outside.' 'Oh, no doubt, sir! You're an exlonion, sir.
