The Lugonia Fruit Packing Company
has been incorporated, with capital Of
SOS, 00O, there are twenty-five hundred
shares, par value $40 each, the directors
are w. 9. Butler, D. +. Clark, Geo. G..
Cook, Israel Beal, and James Sampson.
L. w. Weller was arraigned before
Justice Ling yesterday on the charge Of
bat cry, preferred by Chinaman. 1t
being shown that the Mongolian was the
aggressor and that the accused struck
him in self-defence, the complaint was
dismissed.
The iron front for the new Los Angeles
National Bank. in the United States
Hotel building, is in position, and the
large vault is completed. The inside
work will be accomplished very shortly.
A safe, of the Detroit Safe Company's
make, is also on hand. The bank will
soon commence active operations.
A mandatory of agricultural impls-
ments, with plant of $500. 900, is be.
ing erected at FL Paso, Texas, town Of
about three thousand Inhabitants. Los
Angeles, with her twenty-five thousand
people, appears to be rather behind the
age. We surely have more facilities for
such factory than FL Paso.
A Tustin man says that blaokberries
are the most profitable crop that can be
raised on irrigable land. He has TWEEN.
ty.four vines, from which he supplied
his large family and some Of the neigh
bors. besides putting up a large number
Of cans. In addition, no less than SIS
worth were sold. This occupying very
small space, is better than gold mine.
Vine culture Is impossible above Ger.
tain attitudes In various countries. In
Germany. 1900 feet is the highest; in
Switzerland, 1900 feet; south OF the
Alps, 1000; Sicily, 5000 feet; in Tener-
life, $500 feet; 10 the Himalaya monn-
tains, above 5000, thence to 10000 feet
in height. In Southern California, $500
feet wonld probably be fair limit.
A fine asphaltum sidewalk is being
laid in front of the substantial new Ames.
toy building Oh Los Angeles street. The
opposite side Of this block is the only
one If two in the city which il entirely
laid with the asphaltum sidewalk, and
we hope that this durable and clearly
pavement will continue to be laid until
all the business part OF the city can
boast of its excellence.
In City Justice Morgan's Court, yes.
teIday, John Cronin, convicted Of being
drunk and disorderly, was fined $40 or
ten days Imprisonment; Juan Olingo,
drunk, received the same sem
tence; AL Payne, disturbing the peace,
got Sl2 or twelve days. Thomas Stovel,
who assaulted teacher in the Spring
street school, one day last week, was
fined $40, which he paid.
Our Pomona friends are pushing
ahead in almost every department Of in
dustry. In Horticulture the Timer of
that place states, that one of their for
lists has already hundred varieties Of
roses, and twenty eight varieties Of
cactus. This is good start on roses,
but to fill out the other 972 kinds of
cactus will occupy some time, and
great deal Of room If the thorns are
left on.
The peculiar and striking spectacle Of
4 phosphorescent sea is now to be seen
1t Willmore City. On the horizon the
waves give flashing light during the
right time like heat lightning, and on
The shore it CLOVIS before the bather in q
lurid radiance that is astonishing to
those who never saw the phosphores-
cent radiance that sometimes CLOVIS In
the tropical zones of the ocean. How
long this illuminating spectacle will last
It Is impossible to state. 1t is weird and
peculiar.
An exsmplar of the superiority of
vineyards, is shown by
one near Tustin. Half of it has been ir-
rigaied six times each. year since plant
ing, while the other bali, with the same
soil-but irrigating water being scarcer
was only watered three times. The
vineyard has also received the same
care, and the result IL that the vines irri-
gated but three times are about twice as
large a. those irrigated six times. We
irrigste too much.
Our evening contemporary speaks of
the Richardson fruit ranch as situated
fietween the old Kewen, or FL Moline
Ranch, and the Lake Vineyard Rancho
IF the late Hon. B d. Wilson. This is
4 slight geographical inaccuracy. There
Is no rancho between the I'll Moline
Rancho and that of Mrs. Wilson. Mr..
Rancho is next that Of Gov
ernor Stoneman, on the east, and west
Of the KAwen Rancho, and does not
join the Wilson Rancho on the east at
Ill.
The Vigilance Hook and Ladder boys,
in this mornings HERALD,
announce that they will give their an
nual ball, at Turn verein Hall, on Sat-
arday night, June 10th. The preliminary
are IN the hands Of an ex.
perienced committee who. we know. will |
cave nothing undone to make the event
) memorable one in the social annals OF |
Los Angeles. The company is deserv-
ng one, and as their object Is to raise
'unds to purchase a new uniform, 1t is
o be hoped that our citizens, at least
hose WAC own property, will aid them
n this laudable object by purchasing |
tickets.
