to the ground by a catfish that
struck him on the head, and in a
moment he was literally pelted with

awav and he was in great danger.
Several thousand of the fishes were
rained down in this way, and it was
snsIly discovered that q whirlwind

THE FIRST NEERscHAUM PIPE.

In 1923 there lived in Pesth. the
capitol of Hungary,.,Karol Kowates,
a shoemaker, whose ingenuity in
cutting and carving on wood. etc
brought him into contact with Count
Andrsssy, with whom be became a
favorite. The Count on his return
from a mission to Turkey, brought
with him piece of whitish clav.
which had been presented to him as
curiosity, on account of its extra
ordinary light specific gravity. 1t
struck the shoemaker, that being
porous, il must be well adapted for
pipes, as it would absorb the nico-
tine. The experiment was tried.
and Karol cut a pipe for himself
and one for the Count. But in the
pursuit of his trade he could net
keep his hands clean, and many a
piece of sheemaker's wax became
attached TO the pipe. The clay,
however, instead of assuming a dir
ty appearance when Karol wiped it

TROUT FROM THE CLOUDS.
TRIAL BY TASTE.

At the Royal Courts of Justice re-
Gently somewhat novel incident
occurred during the hearing of a
case before Justice Lopes and a spe-
cial jury. The qualities of two
samples of coffee being disputed,
the Judge suggested that the best
way to decide the point would be to
have some of each sort made and
let the Jury tase them. The re
freshment contractors, Messrs. Ber-
tram and Roberts, accordingly fitted
up one of the consultation rooms OF
the court as a temporary coffee
house, and at luncheon time the lu-
ry were therein RECALLED with cups OF
hot coffee brswed from both sam
piles. The learned Judge also par
took of the coffee, which was sent to
his lordship in his private room.-

Battle With White Narrow
Escape Of Two Prospeotors.

A correspondent of the San Bernar-
dino Times, signing himself "Pros-
pector," in letter dated Camp near
Cucamonga, July 81, 1888, gives the
following account of an encounter with
white lion:
Editor Times l notice that the San
Bernardino Times speaks lightly of the
discovery of the white lion, and in every
allusion to it seems to hint at its non
existence As far as concerns myself,
seeing is knowing. Last Thursday night,
the second night after its discovery on
the head of Lytle Creek, it visited our
camp, on the West Moiave, attacked,
killed and deyoured two dogs belonging
TO myself and partner, one being tull-
grown Newfoundland, and while en-
gagged with the dogs it was shot at four
times by us. but probably not hit, owing
to the darkness aud the distance, which
was at no time less than thirty yards
when fired at. Friday night about halt.

purpose of making supper of myself or

charged six shots from his revolver,
wounding it once but not seriously.
After keeping us in the tree about an
hour it departed, taking from tree near

On Saturday we dug a pit to on
trap him after the manner Of the Afri.

sticks and leaves and about five feet
above its center hung two-thirds of q

gathered great piles of wood for keep

Advice to Prospectors.

As many OF the readers Of the HERALD
are engaged in prospecting for valuable
minerals, the following advice from the
Arizona Miner is good and timely
1t is well known that there are many
men out in the mountains living on
rough food, sleeping in the open air,
scaling steep mountain sides, toiling
through mountains, prospecting for
ledges OF gold and silver. Many OF
them find ledges in which surface indica.
tons are good, and with pick and
shovel the hardy miner seeks to know
more about it by cutting into the ledge.
Each and every one OF these men are
animated with high hopes, and the dis
covery of rich piece of rock sends
thrill of delight through his whole
being. The Miner always shares in the
delight OF the prospectors when rich
strike is made, for we know that every
such one benefits the entire country.
Yet we would say to those who have
seeming good lodges, develop them, sink
on then, or if you cant and have to sell,
ask reasonable good price for them.
There is nothing to prevent you from
asking q million dollars for yonr find
yet there is much to prevent your get
ting it. The time is long since gone by
when capitalists will buy prospects for
mines or will give much for only pros
pect. Recollect that ledges are plenty
and money is not. Better take a few
dollars for prospect than to
sit down by and expect some
man to come along and give
you thousands OF dollars for some
thing, which, may be, your excited imag-
ination has conjured into bonanza.
Rich and valuable mines are scarce in
even the best mining country on earth,
and capitalists are quite we'll aware OF
this. Another thing-pull together
When one Is about to make sale, even
for a couple Of hundred dollars, don't in
terfere, may be some man who buys will
develop good mine, and all this is for
your good and the general welfare. If
you spoil your neighbor's trade, you
spoil your own, and in crying down
prospect you give the whole district
black eye. And, finally, be patient; for
there is good time coming in the near
future, when all honest prospeetors are
sure to come out all right

large amount of lumber on the ground;

and that is by grand excursion to Santa
Catalina by steamer. This uld give
the Sir Knights good opportunity Of
seeing our harbor and having tue fish
dinner on the island, and a d licious
bath without danger from surf or under
tow.
The Knights will be weary from thou
sands Of miles of travel on land in heat
and dust and unceasing noise, so that a
trip to Catalina would be refreshment
and rest most appropriate and delightful.
The Ex-Governor would perhaps place
one of the boats of his line of steamers at
the service of the committee of enter
tainment, and everybody knows that
Admiral Banning would be liberal in his
terms for the use OF his popular steamer
Amelia. No more agreeable thing could
be done than to escort the Knights to
Catalina and return, and we hope the
Masons of Los Angeles will see that
such an excursion is carried out.

A Fit of Madness.
Los Angeles, August 3.

Johnny Heidi, who lives on Also
road, was taken with violent attack of
insanity, or madness, last night, and
drove the family out of the house. He
then came up Also street to ?, Bal
ladies' store, on the corner Of Also and
Alameda streets. where he attempted to
take the establishment by storm. After
jumping through window and smash
ing the glass, he broke door and
went for the occupants of the
store TO clear them ont Mr.. Ballade
and clerk seized him when he bit the
clerk severely and struggled in ferc-
'cious and dangerous manner. In the
struggle his clothes were nearly all torn
from him, bat they finally overpowered
and bound him with rope and sent for
the police. Officers Williams and Bene..
dict took him to Jail, and while they had
him in hand he attempted to
bite the officers. He appears to
be as wild and vicious as mad
dog, and his hite may be as dangerous.
Johnny has had some crazy spells before,
but nothing to compare with this present
attack. 1t will be remembered that his
brother was killed short time ago by
being stabbed in the brain with knife,
and this fact may have been one of the
causes Of his trouble.

We learn that the Rev. Eli Fay, Of
Sheffield. England, well known Unita-
rian clergyman, will arrive in Los An
geles next month with view Of getting
the Unitarian Church Of Los Angeles
again in active operation. The society
will probably build church in our city.
They have had some lots secured for
three years past, and find that no church
prospers wiihydt church edifice Of
their own. The indefinite contribution
for church expenses in public halls are
hard to collect and small when collected.

gious society.

From the annexed telegram from
Phoenix to the Tucson Citizen, it will be
seen that our sometime townsman, J.
Addison Reavis, will probably have
trouble in making good his claim to his
alleged Spanish grant, which covers the
greater part of the Gila and Salt river
valleys: j. Addison Reavis and brother
are stopping in town talking up their
claim among the citizens, though max
ing rather poor headway There is con-
siderable feeling among the citizens on
the Reavis claim business, and threats
and suggestions Of violence are not un-
common on the street and about offices
and saloons.
