Sale OF San Fernando Lots.

On Friday Noyes & Durfee will
town Of San Fernando. Senator Ma
clay, the founder of the town and the
owner of the property, will be present,
ready and willing to answer all ques-
tions put to him. AS is generally
known, San Fernando is the present
terminus of the Southern Pacific Rail-
road, running north from this city.
1t is located in the San Fernando
Valley-a beautiful and rich locality.
The town already contains some thirty
buildings besides the railroad depot,
and is improving rapidly. Mr.. Ma
clay has taken especial pains to guard
the property against the schemes Of
speculatOrs. He aims to sell lots and
farms only to those intending to be-
come actual settlers. The fifty odd
thousand acres owned by Mr.. Maclay
is all rich land, capable of producing 6
everything grown in Los Angeles
Valley. The town of San Fernando Is
laid off in the midst of the tract, and
will become the center Of rich and
prosperous region. Outside of the
town, Mr.. Maclay is disposing of the
land in small farms suitable for
orange groves and vineyards. The
town is supplied with an abundance of
water, brought from the mountains in
pipes, and from the same source the
entire area now owned by him may
be thoroughly irrigated. The terms
on which the lots will be sold are suf-
ficiently easy to accommodate almost
any one. Those wanting a home in
one of the richest valleys in the State
should attend this sale.

A Practical Suggestion.

1t has been suggested that consid-
erable sum might be collected on the
Fourth of July, in aid of the Louisiana
sufferers. In some countries in Europe
it is the custom to thus raise money
for charitable purposes. The mode of
operation is as follows: Committee
men are appointed who move about
on horseback, making known their
business and receiving the contribu-
tions of all who feel inclined to give.
Money is thrown from windows and
balconies, and collected from crowds
and professions. If such committee
were appointed in this city on the
Fourth, they might easily collect sew
eral hundred dollars for the sufferers
of Louisiana. We commend the plan
to Mr.. Pridham, Mr.. Workman and
others who have been SO liberal and
active in the good work.

MACE-ARNOLD.-On the LIST inst, at the
residence of DIR. Howe, in Florence, by Rev.
w. III. Hill, Warren II. Mace, Esq, Of this
city, to Miss Mary G. Arnold, of Swan Lake,
New York.
We have noticed something peculiar in the
actions of our young friend Mace for some
time past. However, to u.s. he never told his
love, but let concealment, like worm il the
heart, feed on his sun-browned cheek. He
something pin'd in thought, but there wasn't
much green and yellow melancholy, because
he went down to Florence every day. He sat
in the cars very unlike patience on monu-
ment, and he smiled not at grief, but at the
thought how soon steam would whirl i'm
into the presence of her he loved. Well, it's
all over now, and to Mr.. Mace and his beauti-
full bride the HERALD Office offers hearty con-
gratulaions, accompanied with the hope that
their welded life may be long and happy

A Noble Work.

Since last September, Miss M. p.
Stewart, representative of the Amer
lean Missionary Society, has been la
boring patiently and assiduously to
establish and instruct class Of Chi
nese in our city. In doing this she
has been obliged to contend with
every form of discouragement. Com
ing here from her far distant home in
Vermont, a stranger in strange land,
her task has been doubly trying in
the attempt to instil knowledge Of
our language and religion into the
minds of people totally oblivious of
both. In this good work the lady has
not only received meagre moral
support from our citizens, which at
least was bad enough, but more seri-
Gus difficulty was found in the indiffer-
ence of the Chinese themselves. They
were slow to place themselves under
the instruction of Miss Stewart, and
when once started were very irregular
in their attendance at the school. In
the eight or nine months past two
sessions-day and evening-have been
held daily. About forty pupils have
been registered in the day school and
twenty-eight in the evening class,
though the number in attendance has
not been equal to the full member
ship at any one time, and has now
dwindled down to seven regular schol-
ars. Those who were at all persever-
ing and attentive have learned rap
idly. A book was used containing a
translation of the English text in
Chinese characters, and those convers-
ant with their own language have
made very marked progress in their
study. We visited the school Tuesday
evening and listened to some of the
recitations. In reading, the pupils did
much better than we had anticipated,
both in pronouncing and understand
ing the English. They exhibited
some very creditable specimens of
writing, much more legible, to our
notion, than the scrawls of many
lawyers and editors whom we know.
They also repeated some verses from
the Bible, and they sang. The piece
selected was "Come to Jesus" 1t oc-
Cured to us that the would-be melody
was particularly heathenish. What
ever MAY De Sdlu Vi Ills general
shrewdness, John has not an ear for
music. These recitations closed the
school term, and Miss Stewart will
shortly leave for her home in Ver-
mont. She purposes, however, to re-
turn next Fall and recommence her
| labors. Besides maintaining her reg
ular school, Miss Stewart has visited
the houses of the Chinese and there
instructed them. This method she
has been compelled to adopt to reach
a large portion of them, especially the
women. Altogether, we trust that
much good has been done, and q
nucleus formed for much more benefit
| to these heathens in our midst. We
cannot too highly honor this noble
| hearted lady who has come veluntar-
| lily from her cultivated home and
placed herself among such scenes and
such people for the sole purpose of
doing good. Her labor here has been
most thankless and trying; her re-
ward must only come in the words
of our Saviour: "Inasmuch as ye have
done it unto the least of these, We have
| done it unto me-"

i"The survey passes through this var

PIPIFAX.

This remarkable curative herbal
preparation is entirely unlike and greatly
superior to any other recuperant ever dis
covered.
It strengthens the living vital nervaurc
principle, and gives energy to the muscles,
nerves, flaments, membranes, and all tissues
of the internal organs.
PIPIFAX-Keeps the skin In a supple
condition; the cuticle plant; the pores open;
and brings the blood to the surface; thereby
enabling the system to counteract these bane-
full atmospheric influences.
PIPIFAX-Passes through the blood, car
ries off by Precipitation and other excretions
the effete and injurious materials Of the body.
1t Is soothing, Alternative and deferative. Used
methodically and nationally, aided by sulta-
BILE diet, it produces most important changes
in the system, contributing t, the reconstruc-
ton Of tissues, and removes vitiated matter
which has become not only useless but inju-
rious. No other article has ever been intro
duced which combines in such an extraOrdi-
nary degree the principles OF an efficient anti
bilious agent and tonic. Try it and be con-
vinced. Mayo 3m-20

A Patent Way Of Swindling.

Two travelling frauds are going through
WAYNE, Macomb and Livingston Counties
with what they call "lIickmans patent farm
gate" and they have been heard from sew
eral times within the past week with their swim
ding operations. The gate may be all that is
claimed for 1t, but the object of the men is to
get farmers to 'ign notes Of hand for various
amounts and then sell the notes at discount
Ifa farmer gives them an order for one of the
gates-which they claim are made in Detroit
they demand two dollars down, and eight dol
lars is to be paid when the gate is delivered.
They want the farmer to sign an agreement to
take the gate and pay this eight dollars at u
certain date, and they manage to get his sig
nature to q blank note, which they afterwards
fiji up. In some instances the farmers have
given notes of the face value Of eight dollars,
and the notes have afterwards been altered to
eighteen dollars, twenty-cight dollars, eighty.
eight dollars and so on Where farmer re-
fused TO p"y any money in advance they take
his note for the whole of it. Some of the
gates should have been delivered six weeks
ago, according to contract, but nothing has
been heard of the fellows since they left tho
neighborhood where they made the SALE Sew
eral Of the notes have been sold to farmers. So
Ear ~ can be learned no such, gate is being
manufactured in Detrsit,. and h it were, the
conduct Of the men has stamped them as swim
dlers Of the meanest order. They arc both
middlcaged men, one with long, black whis-
kcrs and the other with smooth face, except a
sandy goatee. Thelatter wears a plug hat
and the other bearskin cap. They travel
with light wagon, carrying sample gate,
and drive a pair of black ponies Farmers
will save money and troubled by refusing to have
any sort of dealing with them.--iee Press.

A BOy For n DOG.

One Of the funniest and yet in some repects
the saddest-of Swaps" Is recorded in the
Milwaukee papers as having occurred In that
city last week. A German woman had bright
,litt6son Of eight years Oh, whqn she made.
dra& 4 small wagon loaded, witt her wares
around the streets. The boy as SCARCELY
strong enough for the work land his mother
coveted a big dog. Now another woman in
the house had big dog and no little boy, so
the German proposed to sell hepSon for the
dog and ten dollars, eventually coming down
to the dog and five dollars, at which the swap
was made. But the dog was hungry dog,
and when kept on short allowance was not so
quiet and patient as little Heinrich, but be-
came obstreperous and savage, Then that
German mother was filled with affection for
her little son on the next floor and clamored to
trade back. She wanted her dear little Helm,
rich, who didn't eat so much as the big brute
of dog and didn't bite and tear around and
break things when he was whipped. But the
other party of tho trade insisted that q bar.
gain il a bargain, and that anyhow she was
well content with her part oft Little Helm
rich, too, had no desire to be resNapped for
a dog. His new owner liked him, fed him
well and pettcd him; things to which he had
been wholly unaccustomed. The German
mother made dive for Heinrich. Tother
woman made dive Tor the German mother.
Little Heinrich and the dog slipped out into
the street together, and when passing police.
man stepped in to investigate matters he found
the two women so mixed up on the floor that
1t was difficult to distinguish what was Ger
man mother aud what was brevet mother At
latest advices nothing had been accomplished
in the way Of trading back. and for little
lleinrich's sake it is to be hoped the swap
will stick. t.ait '..f..,Ii.ff IA Iu figiI

Hon. Morgan Bates.

From the Saginaw Republican wo clip the
following sketch of Hon. Morgan Bates,
whose death occurred on the Srd instant:
Hr. Bates was among the leading men of
this State, having come to Michigan as early as
1897. Before coming here, he was for some
years foreman in the Office Of Horace Greeley's
paper, The New Yorker. After coming to
Detroit he occupied for some time a similar
position in the Detroit Adrertiser Office. lie
afterwards became part proprietor Of that pa
per, George Dawson, now editor Of the Albany
Esening journal, being the other partner. In
ls40 the Wing party coming into power in
the State, these gentlemen were elected State
Printers. Subsequently to this, Mr.. Bates be-
came sole proprietor OF the -4decrf'ser, Mr..
Dawson retiring, and at late, date he sold out
entirely. In lS40 he went to California, and
while there published for time the Ahd Cali
fornian. Returning u few years later, he set
tied at Traverse City and commenced the pub
lication Of the Grand Trare,ye Herald, which
he continued to edit till few years ago, when
he sold it to Hon. d. G. Leach. In iS62 he
was appointed Register of the Land office for
the Cheboygan District, which office he held at
the time Of his death. In 1868 he was elee-
ted Lieutenant Governor on che same ticket
with Governor Baldwin, and was reelected in
1870. In 1865 astrong effort was made to car
ry him over to the johnson party, but he re-
fused to be seduced, and was turned ont of
Office, bat was soon after reinstated. In 1872
again It was thought he could be, secured to
lead the Greedy movement in the Grand Tray
erse region, from his former friendly AS
sociations with Mr. Greedy, but here again he
was true to his old party instincts, and used
all his influence for Grant.
