 It is almost impossible to estimate the value of the rain to the varied interests of Southern California.
 Up to 8. 15 o'clock Tuesday evening, the Signal Service had recorded 51. 100 of an inch of rain, and still gentle driz- gle was falling. The rain commenced about 9.45 A. NJ.
 It Is estimated by the best informed sheep raisers, that not less than thirty thousand sheep perished during the late snow storm, in San Diego, San Bernar- dino and Los Angeles counties.
 The culverts on Main street had to be removed some distance to make room for the immense flow of water running in the gutters.
 A sheep owner of Los Angeles last week endeavored to dispose of his flock of sheep, and on Monday was in commu- nication with a gentleman of San Diego relative to their purchase, and had tele- graphed his price. The offer was not immediately accepted, and yesterday when the rain began to fall.the offer was withdrawn.
 The rain storm of Tuesday that was so welcome, commenced at the north as a good storm should, and gradually ,rorl-a1 down fhis WAY If WAS ouite general in the San Joaquin valley and all along the coast as well, facts which argue favorably for its continuance. Beyond any doubt this rain will start all grain and grass crops to growing, and give a fair if not frst-rate season. The clouds dispersed last night, but the spell is broken and showers may be expected at any time.

Correct It..

EDITOR CITHEN:-It would seem to be desirable that words in common and frequent use, should have a uniform pro- nunciation, and that, the correct one. Now, there is a word in very frequent use in mining countries, the general pro- nounciation of which, by the illiterate, and often by men who profess culture, Is very grating to ears polite. l allude to the word assay. How common 1t is to hear men place the accent on the first syllable-thus, ass-aying, and ass-ayer. As well might they pronounce the word assembly and assort in the same way The proper accent of the word assay Is on the second syllable. hope that our school teachers while teaching the young idea how to shoot" will teach them the correct pronunciation of this word, and not let them grow up with the barbarous style above alluded to.

Important Decision.


 The case of Orion vs. Pendery was de- cided a short time ago by Justice Miller in the United States circuit court at Denver in favor Of defendant. The Or ion had been first located, but the Pen dery, located subsequently, on the same territory, discovered mineral Tn place before the discovery by the locators of the Orion claim.
 Justice Miller in delivering the opin- ion of the coUr-, said that the question submitted to the court IS this: Can pros pectors on the public mineral domain acquire any right in which the law will protect them prior tO the discovery of mineral in rock in place, and, if SO, can plaintiffs, being prior lOcatOrs, recover against defendant, who first discovered mineral on the ground in controversy? |? It is the opinion of the court that inas- much as the plaintiffs allowed the de- fendant to enter upon their claim and within thelr boundaries, and there sink a shaft in which they discovered mineral in rock in place before a discovery by plaintiff, and make a location thereof, without protest, the defendants now have the better right. But the defend- ants might have protected their actual possession of their entire claim by prop CT legal proceedings, prior to the dis covery of mineral by the defendant. or by either party. A prospector on the public mineral domain may protect him. self in the possession of his pedis pos session foot possessions, so to speak while he IS searching for mineral, his possession SO held is good as a pOssessory title against all the world. except tine government of the United Stat s, but if he stands by and allows others to enter upon his claim and first discover of mineral in rock in place, the law gives such first discOverer a title to the min eral SO fir8t discovered, against which the mere possession of the surface can not prevail Judgment for the defend ant.

The ser vices were conducted by the Rev. Mir. Edwards, who amid sorrowing friends told how the corruptable became incor- ruptable, and earthly life put on the garb of immortality. The sting of death could have no pain for one who died so young and pure and whose sweet life had passed to where sorrow and death were unknown. Six bright little boys whose years scarce exceeded her own, were the pall-bearers. The fu- neral was largely attended and tear full eyes by old and young told how great the loss, how deep the sympathy they felt for the mother when parting with her comfort and her joy.

CLEANING BRASS.-The government receipt for cleaning brass, used in the arsenals, is said to be as follows. Make a mixture of one part common nitric acid and one-half par, sulphuric acid in a stone jar; then place ready pal Of fresh water and box of sawdust. Dip the articles 10 be cleaned in the acid. then remove them into the water, after which rub them with sawdust. This immedia- tely changes them 10 a brilliant color. If the brass is greasy, It must be tirsJ dip- ped in a strong solution of potash and soda in warm water; this cuts the grease so that the acid has power to act. The Manufacturer says that rusted steel can be cleaned by washing with a solution of half an ounce of cyanide of potassium in two ounces of water, and then brushing with a paste composed of half an ounce of cyanide of potassium, half an ounce of castillo soap, an ounce of whiting and sufficient water 10 make the paste.

Austria and the MOuntaIneers.

Possibly no more are needed. An Austrian soldier. it IS reported, has defended an excise post against two hundred mountaineers and fought his way out single handed.

How to Extinguish A Fire.

Bremen would do well 10 bear in minc that one gallon of water at the bottom o fire will do more to queDch 1t than ter gallons on top. Play low IS the true motto for the fireman. 1.-the engine that reached the Summer street fire in Boston had only burst into the warehouse and played into the goods elevator, where the fire broke out, 1t would probably have saved S5o, 1000. To play on the roof of a house on fire Is to waste water; the rain does not put out a kitchen fire. Be sure to play low; get the water near the fire, and then you need not pour out a river A few gallons at the bottom of a ire will rise in clouds Of steam when the fire is rising, and will quench 1t. Even a heap of rubbish turns water like partial roof A gill of water thrown into the bottom Oi a grate equals quart thrown on top For a similar reason, water on the wlnd- ward side is more effective than on the leeward. This applies to moderate fire where there are only two or three houses burning. The big blaze onthe leeward looks fearful, but 1t cannot oe affected by play ing on that side. Throw water in the bed of cOals under the retort that IS sucking them, and 1t will go out - that IS 10 say, play at the bottom of the windward side of ire and you take the surest and speedlest way to quench the whole lee ward side, blazes included.
