About week ago some young ladies 90,
up party to go on moonlight excursion
The night finally arrived and the moon
flooded field and river with GLOW of pearl,
richness. When the party was ready ia
leave the house which had been appointed
as the rendezvous, it was noticed that one
of the most charming Young ladies of tho
coterie had shawl on. Whats the
matter Lucy" inquired one young lady
Are you afraid oftaking cold:' NO, no.
she replied. The thermometers M at SO
You'll roast if you wear that shawl" I'm
willing TO roast she said, rather pettishly
"Don'tyou know why she wears that shawl
laughed her little brother as he wiped some
taify off his mouth with his jacket sleeve
You keep still, you John Henry, screamed
the dear angel as she turned a trihe red.
The boy then got out Of reach and yelled
I'll tell you why she wears that shawl.
When shegets out on the river Bob puts his
arm under it and hugs her. and nobody can
see through the game"

such sourse of speculation at home,

and whose waters are too filthy for the


survival of finny tribes.
But how about this question of seWe
ers being injurious to health, and
about the law of the State forbidding
the pollution of streams? True we
have them in nearly all large cities in
spite of law, and Notwithstanding
sanitary science has decided against
them ever since the destruction OF the
old cloQca n1oGin20 of Rome. But
modern science is strikingly like
modern religion in that they are both
so different from the ancient, being
much more mixed, they occasion
much greater noise, possibly, too, at
the expense of the genuine stuff. May
be the advocates of sewers among mod
ern scientists, and sanitarians have
been missionaries playing Indian
agent, or iemagogues and political
shysters, dallying with the Judicial err
mine, while the laws votaries ignor-
antly held the candle. If our young
ROmulus wishes to stick to the teXteby
striking for the first principles Of san
itation for the interest of our city,
which is rapidly developing into met
ropolitan proportions, and now de-
handing reforms propOrtiOnatet to her
near future greatness, we commend
him for both honesty and sincerity of
purpose, for he is certainly neither in
the political trade nor the scalping bus
mess. STUDENT.

immigration Aid Association.

A large number Of our most prom
inent citizens assembled in the
reading room of the Cosmopolitan
Hotel last evening to hear the
opinions of Professor Gennest as to
the capabilities Of the soil and
climate of Los Angeles county for
the production of the sugar beet.
The meeting was called TO order by
Mr.. E. f. Spence who nominated
Mr.. J. s. Slauson as Chairman.
Mr.. Slauson on taking the chair in
troduced Mr.. Gennert.
The Professor com menced by eX-
pressing great surprise at the Won
derful productions of our soil and
said that if an affidavit Of its pro-
ductiveness were made and sent to
Germany the people there would
pronounce it a tremendous Yankee
lie. From his observation he be-
lieved that with half the labor and
half the Investment, more could be
realized from the production of
sugar in this county than from all
the gold and silver taken from the
Pacific Coast. He said that, in 1860,
he was the first person who invest
ed money in beet sugar nlanu-
factory in Illinois, and would have
succeeded had not the war inter-
fered.
The Professor continued at some
length and gave number of prac-
tical suggestions as to how best to
make our great productiveness of
soil remunerative to the producer.
In order to make the sugar beet
source of profit, he said, it would
be Indispensable to have first
class sugar mill, which would cost
in the neighboihood of $3.50, 900.
After making compari OF BE-
tween the climate of this section
and that of other regions where
sugar is grown with profit, he
thought that, with our irrigation
facilities, Los Angeles in many re-
spects compared favorably with
any section of the world Of which
lie had any knowledge.
AT the conclusion of Mr.. Cen
merits remarks, which were extent
poraneous. u number of questions
were asked. In reply to Mr.. Wild.
ney, as to the value of land suitable
for the production of sugar bsets
in Europe, the Professor stated that
in Germany 1t was worth about
$500 per acre and in Belgium $500
to $500.
Mr.. Spence, Chairman of the FL
nance Committee, reported sub
scriptions to carry out the objects
of the Association amounting to
$500.
Some time was devoted to a gen.
eral discussion of the suggestions
offered by Mr.. Gennert, after which
the meeting adjourned until Mon
day, the ODD Inst.

post afectionately with his hand,
he started in again: "Who would
be Justice of the Peace il he let gin
alone?" After pause long enough
to give impressiveness to the reply,
in much changed voice, came the
answer: king. King would be
Justice if he let gin alone" We
really had no idea that "Old King"
had so much of the histrionlc FAC
ulty about him.
Capt. Walker, who established
the paper mill in the Soledad, ar
rived in Los Angeles yesterday,
and is stopping at the Cosmopol-
itan Hotel. The Captain informs
US that he proposes to push the
manufacture of paper from cactus
with vigor. There is one circum-
stance about the manufacture OF
printing and other papers which is
not generally understood. From
forty to fifty per cent. of these pa
pers is now generally made from
wood fiber-that is, they are filled
in with wood. The cactus, however,
yields much better result than
wood, and the paper made entirely
of its fiber is of q very superior or
der. 1t takes ink admirably, hav-
ing been used on the Call and other
newspapers. The cactus employed
is that found on the Mojave Desert.
The bark is stripped from the tree,
it is cut into blocks in the saw mill
and is torn to strips by powerful
machinery. The works at the Sol
edad were devoted entirely to the
making of "fiber." This last was
shipped to the Lick mill at San
Jose and made into paper. There is
cactus enough on the Mojave desert
to keep the whole American CONT.
nent supplied with paper from now
till the crack of doom.
