The Amadon Assassination.

The trial of John Foster for the muir.
der of Henry Amadon, on tho morning
of September 25th. was commenced yes
terday afternoon in the Superior Court
before Judge seprlveda. Full reports
Of the circumstances connected with the
murder, including the testimony before
the Coroner's jury and the preliminary
examination before Justice Ling, were
published in the HERALD at the time Of
their occurrence. Foster was committed
for trial without bail on the charge Of
murder, and Mrs. Amadon and her sis
ter, Mrs. Greenleaf, were committed as
accessories after the fact.
But little progress was made yester.
day in the case Of Foster. Coroner
Nadeau was called and testified to the
finding Of the body, the nature of the
wounds and the extraction Of the bullets
therefrom. Three of tho Southern Pa
cilic Railroad employees were called as
witnesses to testify as to the usual time
when the deceased shonld have returned
to Los Angeles, and explained the reason
of his return through an exchange with
another fireman. A large number of
witnesses viii be examined to-day, and
public attention will be fixed upon the
trial with great intensity. Some new
evidence will be produced in addition to
that before the Justice and the Coroner.
1t is supposed that the trial will occupy
the Court for day or two.

Oar readers are under obligations to
the Greeley Tribuae, Colorado, for the
following extract from three column in.
terview with Charles Frohman. of the
Madison Square Theatrical Company,
who has travelled very extensively
When asked by the Tribune what he
thought of Southern California, he re-
piled:
It's paradise. Charles Nordhoff did
not exaggerate when he wrote up that
country. What he said is true, and no
fair-minded man can make personal in
vestigation of its resources without wish.
ing he owned property there, and had
his family tree growing under its soft
blue skies. The beauties Of Riverside
rival anything saw in Italy or Franco.
Citron, olive and palms spread their
dark foliage over the gardens of that
lovely spot, while fountains cool the
air with dew.like spray. Artificial lakes,
orange groves, drives and howery gar
dens, are some Of the beauties Of that
retreat. The charm Of romance fingers
around many of the old Spanish Missions
in the Southern part of the State.
All the world has heard of California; =
wonderful resources, but to appreciate
the charm and hospitality OF its people,
one must 60 there aud live. II 10 tho

40 in number, but If the distillerios are
counted separate from the wineries, it
would make a total of So. The estimate
does not include any but wholesale
firms. although some of them also sell at
retail.
Eight years ago there we're but twen-
ty.one industries OF the kind in the city
principal among which were a hourmill.
breweries, wineries. planning mills, foun-
dries. brick yard, the leo factory, cof-

The numbug mine has at present but

copper Bottomed Capital.

Copper mining appears TO be looming
up in the American Union, and outstrip-
ping that kind Of industry in all other
countries. From present appearances
tho future mining millionaires will be
the copper mine owners. Some of our
Angelenos may wake some fine morning
and find themselves millionares by rea-
son OF their investments in copper mines.
As specimen of the way such mines
pan out, the Calumet and Hecla copper
mine of Lake Superior is good enough.
That single company has already paid
out in dividends s24, $50, 900, and steadi.
ly iogs along, paying $1,000, 900 year,
and yet few years ago this mine did
not show off as well as some Of. the Ari-
zona or the San Bernardino county cop
per deposits. The Copper Quccn Of Ar
iona has paid sl,025, 900, and is but
partially opened. The Copper Queen
has the same amount of capital stock as
the Calumet and Hecla, and has made a
better start for the first year than that
famous mine. Now let some Of our
mine owners open their great copper de-
posits that lie about seventy-five miles
north by east from this city and match
these other fellows. In the meantime.
some of our citizens promise to astonish
the people with the productions Of the
Ray mine. and become copper capitalists.

A Curious Misnap.

At the Montecito last week very pc.
culiar accident happened. A cow be-
longing TO Mrs. Dinsmore broke through
some boards laid over well and fell to
the bottom, distance Of twenty-five
feet. Upon discovering this fact which
was several hours thereafter, Thomas
Hosmer and several other neighbors
rugged upa derrick and hoisted her to
the top. Upon her arrival at the sur
face it was discovered that the derrick
was not high enough to permit of her
being landed on the ground. Thereupon
she was with much deliberation let down
into the well again. When again
brought to the top Of old mother earth
by higher apparatus she was found to
be entirely uninjured. This asrobatio
