The Grape Industry.

In illustration of the advantage OF
planting grapes at a reasonable distance
apart, as indicated in the HERALD on
Sunday, in an article on grapes, it affords
us pleasure to state that the vineyards
at Orange are planted usually sxS feet
apart, instead Of 6x6, as of old-time
custom, while those who had planted
6x6 at that place have taken out hall
their vines, leaving them 6xl2, and get
more and better grapes as a result, and
furnish the first ripe grapes in Los
Angeles market. 1t may as well be re-
membered that it does not cost half SO
much to plant and take care of a vine
yard planted twelve feet apart as it does
one that is six feet apart. In the latter
case there are 1910 vines per acre to
plant and prune, and sucker and watch
over, while in the first place there are
but 302 vines to the acre to look after,
with the same amount of grapes as a
result and handsome quality of fruit.
All the weight Of experience seems to
point to the abolition of the old custom
Of planting near together. and TO substi-
tute twice the former space. Nature is
very generous in California, and the peo.
pie of California should initiate nature.

willmore City Items.

There has been large number of Wis.,
itors at Willmore during the past week
Riverside is well represented. For sew
eral days every room in the hotel was
occupied by Riverside people, among
whom were A. Keith and wife, w. e.
Keith and family, and Mr Simmons
and wife.
Several families from the same place,
who have been camping at Lagunn, are
now at Willmore, delighted with the
fine beach and the bathing.
Mr.. S. G. Evans, of Riverside, is at
the beach spending few days with
his sisters, Mrs. FL. J. Rudisill and Mrs.
Hill, who are stopping at Willmorc.
A number of the campers have their
own carriages and buggies with them,
and take daily drives on the beach,
when the tide is out. A favorite drive
is to the shark fishery. at the mouth Of
New river, about four miles from the
coast.
Clans are abundant, and clam parties
go out daily at low tide, and bring back
plenty of these luscious bivalves.
A number Of crawtish were caught
few days since on the beach near Judge
Widney's cottage, and crawfsh salad is
on the bill of fare.
While excavating the bluff for the
erection OF the bath-house, few days
since, the bank caved injuring several
dressing rooms. but luckily nobody was
hurt, and the damaged section has now
been repaired.

The City Hall.

The resolution introduced into the
City Council on Saturday last, by Coun-
Gilman Schroeder, instructing the
Finance Committee to inquire into the
propriety of selling enough of the prop
elty of the city to purchase the Court
House for the use OF the city as a City
Hall. City Justice, Surveyor, Assessor,
Clerk. Tax Collector, Treasurer, and
for City Prison, apparently seems to
meet with popular favor on all sides. In
conversation with a large number Of
taxpayers yesterday, we did not hear an
objection to the plan, except that an
addition woald have to be put on to the
present building to accommodate the
needs of the City Prison until such time
as the county shall build a good jail,
which could be used by the city and
county. From present appearances the
project is likely to be carried out and be
popular.

More Mysterious Work.

The lee remains" so called, have
taken new features. When first found
by the Deputy Sheriff they seemed to
have only the remnants of a blanket
among them, and very little hair. Now
when the coroner has exhumed them he
finds a lot of coarse black hair Lee's
hair was auburn) and part Of a woman's
clothing, which leads many to think that
the remains are those of squaw. 1t is
also claimed by Lees friends that one of
his hands was deformed, and that the
bones OF that hand OF the corpse found,
have been stolen, and the stumps of his
two broken front teeth have been taken
out. This looks little crooked. The
next we hear of these bones they will
perhaps have been changed to those of
an infant or mountain sheep. The
question arises, who opened the grave
and put in the black hair and the petit
coat; who stole the hand and the stumps
Of the teeth; who mashed the head with
rock, and wherefore was il masheds
Who got the group OF mines in Dry
Lake District which Lee said he had
discoveredg What do the Chimehueva
Indians know about it? Who will find
these things out?

Wellington Coal.

Attention of the consumers of coal is
called to the particularly excellent quail
tiles of this coal for either steam, heat
ing, or cooking purposes. One ton of it
is fully equal to three cords of wood. As
household coal for cooking or heating
purposes it has no equal, selling for sew
eral dollars more per ton in the San
Francisco market than any other coal
imported for this particular use. This
coal is for sale by all coal and wood
yards.

A Fiendish Deed.

About two miles beyond the Fulton
Wells gentleman by the name of
Baker had made at large expense fine
flowing artesian we'll that furnished
water to his ranch and also to the stock
Of neighboring ranches. 1t made ver-
table oasis in the summer desert. On
the Both Of July some fiend in human
form put charge Of dynamite down
the well and exploded it, throwing q
vast cloud OF mud over the country and
leaving muddy crater about six feet
across in place Of the iron tube that
sent up column Of pure water for the
benefit Of man, beast, and vegetable
growth. The whole economy Of the
earth through which the well extended
has been disrupted and destroyed, and
instead Of the cool, pure water stream,
stagnant pool is all that remains.
Such dastardly deed deserves the
severest punishment. 1t is the worst
form Of grand larceny, robbing the own
er Of water for his family, his stock and
his crops, and the profit he might have
in selling water to his neighbors. II Is
hoped that speedy justice will overtal<e
the miscreant who did the dastardly
act.

A Man Goes Over the Falls


And disappears beneath the foaming bill
lows, This afternoon about half-past
o'clock, a fne-lookjng, well-dressed gen
tleman was seen walking across the sus-
pension bridge with a cigar in his mouth,
smoking quite leisurely. There was
nothing strange in his manner and the
people on the bridge thought of nothing
wrong until they saw him leap from
the bridge, over the railing, into the
mighty waters beneath. The people on
the bridge were awe-struck and power
less to render him any assistance, and
with feelings Of deep sorrow and tears
in their eyes, they stood silently watch
ing him as he struggled with the
rushing waters, and as he was carried
into the roaring cataract, they noticed
that he was still putting away at one of
those famous ''Tansill's Punch" Cigars,
Havanah filed, which he purchased at
the Postofiice Cigar Store, for only five
cents. july3l-tf.
