During the past few weeks for the
first time in sixteen years, the
Laguna on COL. r. s. Bakers
ranch of that name dried up for a
considered BILE distance. About a
space fifty feet square, In one cor

piled with water, and the catfish

again and the lake il now rapidly
filling up. In Southern California

infallible Indication of a wet year.

glad to welcome that gentleman
back yesterday from a visit 10 tie
East OF several months duration.
While East of the Rockies the
Doctor boxed the geographical
compass pretty well, interviewing
his friends and relatives in that
section, and taking u birds eve
view of many Of the Eastern cities.

East too utterly utter cold for any
earthly use. In the language of the

He is heartily glad to get home
again. In all his wanderings he
found no spot so attractive to him
as Los Angeles.
