BY the forethought of the man
agement of the coming great mu-
steal May Festival in San Fran
cisco, there has been procured the
construction Of one of Edison's
phonographs-that most wonder
full of modern marvels-especially
for the occasion. 1t is now en- route
to San Francisco, and will arrive
there this week. 1t is supposed
that this phonograph will be one of
the chief attractions of the Festival.
1t has been suggested that, as the
Good Templars' Jubilee here will
take place several weeks after the
San Francisco Festival, it would
be capital idea to send up and
borrow the photograph for our
home affair. Mr.. Bugbee is very
accommodating gentleman, and
would probably gladly lend it to
us. There is nothing the Good
Templars could do which would
draw bigger crowds or yield more
revenue than to present the famous
phonosraph as one of the attract
ions.
The San Bcrnardino Argus learns
the following particulars Of the
cutting ARRAY at Rincon: 1t seems
that quite q crowd had assembled
at the store and some of the party
had been drinking freely. Lord
had asked Ralph TO loan him some
money, and got Tom Walkenshaw
to 90 on his note. The note was
given to Ralph, who looked at it
moment and then tore it up, throw
ing the pieces on the ground, tell
ing Lord that he was too drunk to
transact business that day, but in
the morning they would draw up n
new note and he should have the
money. This seemed TO enrage
Lord, who swOre vengeance on him.
Shortly after this Ralph got into
his wagon and drove off, and Lord
jumped into the hind end, and
drawing knife commenced TO cnt
at his throat on both sides, making
some terrible wounds. Ralph was
brought back and his wounds
dressed, and he is still in a bad con.
dition. Eight gashes in all were
found on his throat.
The Courier de Los angeles has
the following in reference to the
recently discovered deposits of
paint in this COUNTY: "In q visit
which we made to the shop of Mr..
Gui!lory, we were convinced that
nothing can surpass the paints
which he is now manufacturing
from this natural material. He has
had the paint tried by the most cX-
perienced painters OF our city, and
they have declared that in quality,
beauty and brilliancy of color,
these paints are equal if not supe-
rior to all the present Eastern i'm
portations." This is high praise,
and if it IS deserved, as we have no
reason to doubt it is, these deposits
of paint will form very important
addition to our valuable natural
resources.
After remarkably brief expert
ence as q journalist, Rev. w. r.
Wiley has sold the Santa Ana
NciUs to L. f. Ferguson, former
attache Of the Gazette. In order to
give the new proprietor an oppor-
tuni.y to rehabilitate the concern,
the paper will not appear until
Saturday, June LIST. 1t will here
after be known as the Santa Ana
lie, aid. If industry, honesty of
purpose ard intelligence will make
a good paper, there cah be no doubt
OF the success Of Mr.. Ferguson's
venture.-Anaheim Gazette.
The Messrs. T.. J. Baldwin and
Sam G. Curtis were registered at
the st. Charles Hotel yesterday.
We suppose that the last "agony"
is oeiDg adjusted in the Justice
movement. The question with the
knowing ones is whether, before
these worthy gentlemen force the
stock up to $50. they will get it
down to fifty cents. Quite evil
IDENTIFY every journal in San Fran
cisco is interested in giving the
stock "black eyer which is an
excellent sign of its shortly going
to high figure.
The benefit to Miss Carrie Wood
and the Messrs. Cogill and Cooper,
of the late Zanno Troupe, at Woods
Opera House last evening was an
immense success, the house having
been crowded. The beneliciaries
rendered their specialties with
spirit, and were received with up.
roarious applause and frequently
encored. They will doubtless, on
their next tour, select manager
with sufficient funds to meet eX-
penses, as it is only at rare inter-
walls they would meet with a man
aaer as good natured as Col. Wood.
Some time ago Mr.. D. freeman
purchased several boxes of superior
Los Angeles oranges from Mr.. G.
E. Huber. He forwarded them by
express to j. d. Irwin, Esq, and
A. f. Campbell, Esq, Queens
Counsel, both in Canada, and he
lately received q letter informing
him that they had arrived in per-
feet condition. Both the donees
expressed high appreciation of
the size, flavor aud general excel
