THE BEECHER-TILToN controversy
is still warm, but develops no new
features. There is a vast amount of
talk, and great many remarks and
speeches are attributed to the parties
most interested; yet it is more than
probable that the lady or either Iof
the gentlemen have not said one word
where newspaper reporters have made
them say q thousand. TILroN has
been arrested for libel and discharged,
but nothing important hangs thereby,
as his release was no doubt the work
OF friends. So much verbiage and
nonsense has been set afoat that the

Fruit Drying---How 1t is Done.

AS we shall soon have afruit-drying
establishment conducted on the Alden
process in this city, brief description
of the mode by which the fruit is
dried may be found of interest to the
people of this valley. The Alden pro-
cess is based on purely scientific prin-
ciples. Its treatment of the fruit Is
simply pneumatic evaporation of the
water it contains. The starch and
sugar of the fruit is retained and the
article rendered decay proof, The
Alden preserved fruits are essentially
fresh, and they remain so for years.
We have seen specimens of Alden
dried corn, peas, nectarines, pump
kins, squashes and apples, which after
being placed in water short time, as
sumed just the shape and resumed
just the flavor possessed before being
submitted to the drying process. In
drying the water alone is removed
from the fruit, hence little water
restores the dried fruit to its original
shape and flavor. We cannot go into
a description of the Alden Pneumatic
Evaporator. What 1t does will be of
more interest. The following figures
are given as the product of what is
called a number two evaporator, in
twenty-five hours work: Apples, $50
pounds; apricots, $50 pounds; sweet
corn, $50 pounds; pears, 300 pounds;
peeled peaches, 300 pounds. Total,
1850 pounds of dried or evaporated
fruit in one day. This seems incredi-
BILE, yet the fact is well authenticated.
This fruit was not, like the ordinary
kiln or sun-dried fruit, liable to mould
or decay. 1t could do neither, for all
the water it contained was entirely
removed. The Alden process will, at
a cost of not exceeding three cents per
pound, turn out an article of prune far
superior to that now imported. Think
what may be done with a single acre
of the broad area now uncultivated in
California. Two hundred and twenty
two trees may be planted on single
acre; at five years old from the bud,
each of these trees will bear two hun
dred pounds. This gives Is, 200 pounds
to the acre. of preserved prunes
worth, at twenty cents per pound,
S3,040-a grand yield for single acre
of land. But it is to the raisin man
ufactured by the Alden process that we
would call particular attention, be-
cause we already produce an immense
quantity of grapes in this valley. Mr..
DAVIS, the owner of the right for this
county, has samples Of the Alden
manufactured raisins that will aston
ish all who examine them. They are
made from all kinds of grapes. The
common California grape makes fine
article of raisin, but the raisin manu-
factured from superior grape excels
in beauty, size and flavor anything we
have ever seen. Those of our citizens
who think of digging up their vine-
yards will do well to pause. The bus
iness Mr.. DAVIS is about to inaugu-
rate will furnish market for all
grapes grown in this valley.

WOODS IN WINTER.
By II, W. LoNGFgLLow.

When winter winds are piercing chill,
And through the hawthorn blows the gale
With solemn feet | tread the hill
That over brows the lonely vale.
Ger the bare upland, and away
Through the long reach of desert woods,
The embracing sunbeoms chastely play,
And gladden. these deep sOlitudes.
Where, twisted round the barren oak,
The sumner vine in beauty chung,
And summer winds the stiffness broke,
The crystal icicle is hung.
Where's from the frozen urn, mute springs
Pour out the rivers gradual tide,
Shrilly the skaters iron rings
And voices fill the woodland side.
Alas how changed from the fair scene
When the birds Gang out their mellow lay
And winds were soft and woods were green
And the Song ceased not With the day:
But still, wild music is abroad;
Pale, desert woods within your crowd;
And gathering winds, in hoarse accord,
Amid the vocal reeds pipe loud.
Chill airs and wintry winds my ear
Has grown familiar with yOttr Song;
hear it in the opening year. d.. ..

THE ANGEL OF PAIN.

Angel of pain, / think thy face
Will be, in all the heavenly place,
The sweetest face that L shall see,
The swiftest face to smile on me.
All other angels faint and tire;
Joy wearies and fOrsakes desire;
Hope falters face to face with fate,
And dies because it cannot wait;
And love cuts short each loving day,
Because fond hearts cannot obey
That subtlest law which measures bliss
BY what it is content to miss,
But thou, o. loving, faithful Pain,
Hated, reprOached, rejected, slain,
Dost only closer cling, and bless
In sweeter, stronger steadfastness.
Dear, patient Angel, to thine own
Thou cOmesti and art ever known,
Till, late in some lone, twilight place,
The light of thy TRANSPORTED face
Sudden shines out, and speechless they
Know they have walked with Christ
all day.

Tom was strapaing, healthy boy,
with great appetite. lie lived up
in the mountains among the charcoal
burners until he was 10. Then he
rwent down into the valley and hired
out to a farmer. Tom was a sculliOn
and a drudge, and first along the
farmer heslLated to trust even the
hogs to his care. But there was a
glimering of something in him that
showed just a little through his

became full farm laborer-a broad

fellow, who made himself clumsily
