turned over to Mellus three thous-
and of bis best sheep, on condition
that, of the number he should
save, each should have half. That
is, from every standpoint, lucra-
tive proposition, and 1t really looks
al If there might be considerable
money in the one.sided venture.
Mr.. Nathan Jacoby, of the firm
OF Jacoby Bros, clothing merchants
of this city, was united In marriage
yesterday to Miss Bertha Rscbfal-
ska, of San Francisco. A great N any
cengratulatory telegrams were
sent from this city, where the
groom is so we'll and favorably
known. We understand the pres
ents were numerous and cost
ly. The wedding was most
recherche affair and was attended
by large number of, the elite Of
San Francisco.
Owing to the rain last evening
the attendance at the performance
given by Growers Eastern Dra-
matte Company for the benefit Of
the Eagle Corps was not as large
as, with more favorable weather,
it would have been. AS it was the
audience was fair and thoroughly
enjoy ed the highly artistic manner
in which "Lady Audley's Secret,n
was presented, Mr.. and Mrs. Grov-
er and all the members of the COM
pany, rendering their parts most
effectively. The company leave
for San Bernardipo on Thursday.
We bespeak for them the liberal
patronage Of the people of that
city.
We had the pleasure Of a call
yesterday from Mr.. e. E. Goodrich,
a son.in-law of Hon. J. Nc M. Shat
ter, who has, for some years past,
beeu ali habitue of Italy, and who
comes to Southern California in
search of sunshine. Under the
guidance of Col. Chalmers Scott,
Mr.. Goodrich, after hasty visit
to his friends and relatives in San
Francisco, will be enabled to test
our climate from Los Angeles to
the Sonora and Lower California
line, with interludes spent in San
Diego, at the Buena Vista and
Guajome ranchos. We trust that
his experiences will be pleasant,
and that they will lead him to
cast in his lot with us.
Mr.. j. de Barth Shorb, as the
HERALD intimated some time ago,
has interested ample capital in q
scheme for the development of the
Lake Vineyard and Alhambra
tracts-twO of the most promising
in Southern California.
In our opinion there can be no
question of the signal success of
the project, the lands embraced in
the venture being at present really
rated at but one.third of their real
value. The scheme embrsc As the
erection of factory which will
handle the grapes and fruits of the
tract comprised In the programme,
with wineries, etc. We are glad
to see evidences that, under intelli.
gent tutelage, the opportunities for
profitable investment, lying open
in Los Angeles county, are being
utilized by the people of our own
State.
The February Atlantic opens
with poem more than four pages
long by Mr.. Whittier, entitled
''The Bay OF Seven Islands,n aud
those who enjoy Mr.. Whittier's po.
etry, as millions of Americans do,
will find this one of the most at
tractive features of the magazine,
although it contains two additional
chapters of Mr.. Lathrop's engag-
ing story "An Echo of PassiOn,n
and the opening chapters of "The
House of a Merchant Prince,n n
serial story by w. II. Bishop, the
author of "Detmold.n The second

as the visit to the "Moonshiers"

partial observation, and is written
with such perfect clearness, that 1t
