FROM the independent OF NOV. ii.
We learn that VIM. Harold shot
and killed man, name not given, at
Fish Lake valley one day last week.
No other particulars in regard to the
matter than the fact of the killing
and that Harold had gone or was
taken to Aurora.
A fatal shooting affray occurred in
Cerro Gordo at 4 P. NJ, November 9th,
under circumstances about as follows:
One Juan Amarillo dunned Romulo
Estrellia for four dollars, money
loaned. The latter gave an insulting
reply to the demand, saying he would
pay nothing, etc. Some hard words
were then used by both parties. Es-
trellia drew his siX-shooter and COM
menced to blaze away; q number of
shots were fired, one of which struck
bystander named Gonzales Morino,
killing him instantly. Estrellia, the
man who commenced the firing, re-
ceived shot in the right arm near
the shoulder. DR.. Grant cut out the
ball soon afterward, and the wound is
not deemed dangerous. The unfortu-
nate man who was killed was q quiet,
inoffensive man, and not concerned in
the row. He leaves family residing
in Hermosillo, Sonora, and was about
80 years of age. A Coroners inquest
was held, by which these facts were
ascertained. Juan Amarillo is about
% years of age, quit, hard-working
young man; while the other principal,
Estrellia, is reported as a "hard nut"
While the inquest was in progress
Estrellia's friends got him off to parts
unknown, presumably because the
bullet found in Moreno's body would
convict him of the murder. 1t is said
that other parties are liable to indict-
ment for an attempt to murder during
the fracas. At last accounts all par
ties were at liberty.

Another tannery is going up in
Eastern Napa, backed by Eastern
capital.
Nipping frosts have prevailed in the
vicinity of Marysville for few days
past.
The Vallejo Chronicle learns that
9l2, ,49S pounds of grapes were shipped
from st. Helena last months. The
total shipment for the season is |, ,347,-
1S5 pound.
The Stockton Independent says: "In
the vicinity OF Stockton the owners of
vineyards have more fruit than they
are able to utilize. So plentiful and
cheap have grapes become that the
owners of excellent vineyards propose
to root out the vines altogether and
devote their lands to other crops. In
the meantime, there is large quanti-
ty of grapes in San Joaquin awaiting
a market"

Death OF Paul X. Hubs.

The Vallejo Chronicle of Tuesday
contains the following:
A few moments before going to press
the sad intelligence reached our ears
of the death of Col. Paul K. Hubbs,
who breathed his last at his residence
in Vallejo, at almost o'clock T.. NJ.
The shock to his many friends created
by the news, was sudden, for scarcely
an hour before he was walking the
street, TO all appearances as hale and
hearty as ever before. A little more
than half an hour before his death he
was taken with sickness, and his son,
Mr.. Charles H., went for DIR. Vallejo.
When he arrived the Colonel was in
sensible. a medicine was admins
tered which aroused him, and when
the doctor asked the dying man if he
recognized him he replied "yes." He
then sunk away, and in few minutes
closed his eyes, and like one going to
sleep he passed away to the Spirit
Land.
The deceased was 75 years of age at
the time of his death. The complaint
that carried away his life was heart
disease. His father also died in q SIM
ilarly sudden manner; going to bed at
HISHJ III apparently tue Iull possession
of his usual bodily vigor and health,
and expiring with hardly moments
warning of sickness.
The deceased was born in New Jer-
sey in 1899. He came to California
i'll lS49, having been one of the pas
sengers on the ship Susan B. Owens.
He was a prominent man in the early
political history of the State. He was
elected the first Superintendent of
Public Instruction in the State, repre-
sented Tuolumne in the State Senate
in 1872, the year the Capitol was To-
Gated at Vallejo. Other positions
which he had held we have not time
here to mention. He settled at BENZ
cia in 1852, where he lived q number
of years. He afterward removed to
Washington Territory and from thence
came to Vallejo, where he lived to the
time Of his death. 1t had been his
frequently expressed wish to have his
remains inferred at Benicia, by the
side of his former wife, and the desire
will be gratified by those he left be-
hind.

casionally, it will be found a conven-
ience in het weather. On the shelves
may be kept constantly on hand, balls
Of butter, cold and hard, ready for the
table: tue cream jug, custards, lemon
pies, blanc mango, jellies; any such
delicacy or luxury may be brought
lrcm the shelves, icy cold. An ice box,
so arranged, is not only agreat conven.
ience, but is matter Of economy. One
fifth the usual amount Of ice will be of
more benefit to family than the usual
amount used in tn: ordinary way: and
no housekeeper who has once tes.ed this
convienencc would ever be willing to do
without it through the hot season.
After the box is finished it should be
painted and set where the cover, when
lifted up, can rest back on brace or
frame, as it is heavy. and would easily
break from the hinges. A cellar is a
good place for the ice boz, but it may
be kept in the pantry. store room, or
wood shed, as it is most convenient.

Remedy for Poison by Ivy.

It seems to me that read all kinds
Of cures for ivy poison except the right
one. I have always endea~ored to
keep it before the public, but have
failed. It is to dissolve sugar Of lead,
bit the size of hazelnut, in half
teacuE of sweet milk or warm water.
Apply as warm as can be easily borne
with a soft, lnty piece of linen rag.
Three CT four applications are sufficient
to effect cure. If the poison is on the
face and nearing the eyes or mouth,
this astringent wash may be constantly
applied.
It is a marvellous cure, and by watch
ing closely one can see the fevered bis
ters turn from white to yellow during
the application. This remedy for ivy
poison should prevent a great deal Of
suffering. It is well where a member
of family is easily poisoned to keep
sugar Of lead in the house all the time
Let it be labeled and kept where it can
be found the moment it is wanted.
Keep it we'll wrapped up that it may
not lose its strength.-Cor. Ohio

One Of the London journals contains
a statement by DR.. Berry Of his sue
cessful treatment Of uncomplicated
whooping cough with dilute nitric acid,
in doses of from five to fifteen m;nims,
according to age. with simple syrup,giv.
en- every three or four hours, allcyiating
the cough and spasm, and apparently
cutting short the disease. During an
epidemic Of the disorder he prescribed
this frequently, and with very satis1ac-
tory results. He offers no suggestion
as to the operation Of the remedy, but
he believes its action to be that Of tonic
though its refrigerating properties are
not to be lost sig ght of. In all the cases
treated, he has, of course, paid atten-
tion to the state Of the digestive organs
and in such cases as have required it..
he has given an aperient combined with
an Alternative.
