Mr.. r. w. Standefer, of the
Ranchito, who has just returned
from q trip to the Arkansas Hot
Springs, has just submitted to q
very delicate surgical operation,
we believe, the laying
open of the flesh and scraping the
bone. Doctors Richardson, Han
non and Bush, of Los Angeles, and
DR.. Gibbons, of San Francisco,
were the officiating surgeons, per.
forming their werk very skillfully.
Mr.. Standefer has greatly improved
in health since the operation.
Captain Loudon, lately in charge
of Blythe's store, during the alb.
sence of o. P. Galloway, near Eh-
renberg, was, we are tolf, shot
through the window while inditing
a letter to Mr.. Blythe. There
seems to be no clue as to the MUIR
derer and it Is said the body ap.
peared to have been lying there
two days when discovered. Though
there were many articles to tempt
the cupidity of the assassin, and
nothing to prevent robbery, none
are missing Yuma Sentinel.
Mrs. M. E. Parke has returned
from her trip to San Francisco,
bringing with her the latest and
most attractive novelties in the
modiste's range. No lady who Wis.,
its the Palace of Fashion, in Stre-
litz block, and who avails herself
of this lady's exquisite taste, need
have any doubt but that her toilet
will have the latest Partisan stamp.
Our feminine readers should not
fail to inspect the rich and rare
things displayed by Mrs. Parke.
Ii they examine they will surely
buy. To-day and tomorrow are
the special opening days.
Judge J. s. Thompson met with
a painful but, we are glad to know,
not serious accident while cleaning
his revolver on Tuesday evening.
He held the cylinder in his left
hand and with nail tried to push
the charge out, when it exploded,
the ball entering the palm of his
hand, the cylinder flying off
in another direction. Owing to
the rebound of the cylinder the ball
was not projected with much force,
and it penetrated only beneath the
skin. DR.. Barton was called and
removed it. The Judge will carry
q sore hand for some time, but he
may be thankful that the accident
was no more serious.
The amount of business now
done at Anaheim is gratifying.
The exports average two carloads
per day and the imports are also
heavy, four carloads of merchan.
disc having been received on Mon
day night. On last Saturday the
shipments were three carloads of
wine and one of coal. On Sunday
the shipments were seven carloads
of sheep, one of orange trees, one
of coal and one of grain. There is
more business done at Anaheim
depot than at any other in the
county excepting Los Angeles, and
it might not be improper to add
that the management of Mr.. Dar-
ling is com mended by all who have
dealings with the railroad compa-
A citizen OF the southern end of
Los Angeles county writes thus to
the HERALD: 81 am glad to see
"that yeu are opposing this new
'Constitution. No intelligent man
''favors it who is not a demagogue
Seeking office; and, by the way,
"that Constitutional Convention
''has developed some first class
'demagogues. The Workingmeu,
''wLo have promised them Office
''for their support, If they get pow
ter, will pitch them to the (blank) J,
''as they deserve. No one will get
''ofl1ce but their own kind" This
Is a little uncharitable, but we COM
mend it to the editor of the Star,
who says so many unpleasant
things about people who don't
think as he does.
Kwong Hing, an intelligent
Chinese merchant doing business
On Spring street, on being asked
his opinion of the new constitution,
yesterday, said that as he had not
yet read the instrument, he was
to say whether he was in
favor of Its adoption or not. He
was emphatic, however, in his ap-
provaI Of the bill to curtail Chinese
immigration to this country and
said that when he started from
China for California, he knew
of the opposition Of the
people here to the influx of his peo-
pie. II he had he would not have
come; but, now that he is here, he
must stay until he gets money
enough to take him back home. A
large number of the more intelli-
gent of his countrymen are in the
same situation as himself and agree
with him in the opinion that some-
thing should be done to stop Chi
nese immigration.
