Once more established in her home, Cecil
Clayton tried to overlook its dreariness in
the hope of happier times. The task was
no easy one gong about the rooms assOci-
ated with such fond memories Of the de-
parted parent.
Her disturbed mind kept her feverish and
excited. She feared the plans of her un-
known friend could not be successful.
Failure seemed to mark every effort, and
doubts would rise in the midst Of anticipa-
ton. That she had not ut first denounced
jared Clark, and damaged his reputation SO
far as she could, she now regretted. It
would have afforded some satisfaction.
Thd banacea for these repinings was her
companion, Mrs. Weeks, in whom she al
ready discovered the most amiable qualities.
To her was intrusted, after much urging,
full control of the household affairs.
AS she went about, experimenting altera-
tions here and there, and arranging the
duties Of the somewhat mismanaged SER
wants, Cecil felt puzzled that she could take
so lively an interest in the welfare of an en-
tire stranger.
The chidings Mrs. Weeks gave her for her
ebullitions of temper were taken thankfully.
What even Clara Coles would not have
dared to do, Mrs. Weeks did with impunity.
She asserted the authority of a guardian.
Cecirs rooms had not been disturbed dur
ing her absence from home. Everything
was as she had left it

been broken.
A feeling Of misgiving seized her as she
opened it.

IT must be slowly working into the
minds of Angelenos that their own
Orange Grove City is rapidly becoming
the most noted point in tho United
States. Let us sum up the situation, for
the moment. During the past two
months we have had visits from ex-
Governor Reuben Il. Fenton, Of New
York, ex-President OF the United States
Senate, David Davis, Charles A. Dana, OF
the New York Sun, Ex-Governor Dor
sheimer, of New York, and, last week,
Senator Edmunds, of Vermont. the act
ing Vice President of the United States.
During the same time We have been
favored by the presence OF the Duke OF
New Castle and his suite, besides innu-
merable other distinguished strangers,
whose presence we have already chroni.
cled. In few weeks we shall be wei.
coming the imperial Arch Duke Salvador,
the nephew of the Emperor of Austria,
who has already written a book, illus
trated by his own etchings, devoted to
Los Angeles county, and who desires to
come amongst us again. Still little
while before we had the Marquis oi
Lorne and the Princess Louise. Verify,
Los Angeles can receive no new sensa
tions, unless Alexander of Russia should
seek. refuge from dynamite by buying al
orange grove in our midst, or Pope Lee
should conclude to set up the seat o.
the Papacy here.

The Fish Exhibition.

LONDON, May S.-The arrangements
for the American exhibit at the univer-
sal fisheries exhibition will not be COM
pleted by the opening day, May 18th, the
spaces not being in order to be covered

except Russia, have arrived. Among
the countries best represented are Italy,
Belgium, Holland, Sweden and Norway.
Russia is backward, but eventually will
have large exhibit. Of the American
countries, the display of Chill is alone
noticeable. All the British colonies and
possessions are represented, especially
Canada, which shows the whole process
Of artificial pisciculture and fish frozen
since last July. The interest in this

when the exhibits of British Columbia
arrive. Newfoundland displays COM

Magnetism, the New Source of
Health.

DIR. Edwin Robbins, the celebrated
Australian Electric and Magnetic Healer,
respectfully informs the public that he
has opened an office in the city of Los
Angeles. DR.. Robbins discards the use
of surgery, drugs, minerals and all other
medicines in his treatment and relies
solely ON the powers of magnetism. An
experience of several years in the Aus
traliau colonies, San Francisco, Salt
Lake City and Denver, in which places
he has treated successfully thousands of
persons, enables him to assert with con,
iidence that he can cure diseases which
have defed the application of medical
science. Magnetism is the life principle
within us. The air we breath is charged
with it. Iii the vital force emanating
from all persons and that which con-
meets the soul with the body. In sup
port of this theory he cures acute pains
instantly, local pains in few days, and
builds up the most shattered constitu-
tions in a short time, DR.. Robbins, who
has a worldwide reputation for his ex-
traordinary cures of difficult and COM
plicated diseases, possesses a power to
relieve and cure allklnds of disease. DR..
Robbins diagnoses diseases free of charge
without explanation from the patient.

HumOrs OF an engagement win
Fears that General
Crook Is in n Dangerous Posi-
tiOn.
Ell PAso, Tex, May S.-Rumors were
circulated yesterday and to-day of a dis
aster to General Crook. They came by
dispatch over Mexican government wires
and were said to have been sent after
Adjutant. General Drum now en- route to
Ft. Wingate, N NJ. Inquiries have
been pursued all day to ascertain the
facts, with the following result; Col,
linda, Chief OF Staff OF General Euro,
opened communication with General
Riegera at chihuahua. Riegera replied
that no definite information of an attack
had been received but that the Mexican
forces in the field, one thousand cavalry
in two columns, ought to be near
enough to General Crook to support
him if in urgent need. The Mexican
officers here do not disguise their serious
anxiety. Colonel linda is making every
preparation to push forward himself
at once, probably to the neighbor:
hood of Janos. 1t is feared
from many minor facts that have
come to hand that General Crook,
having moved some days earlier than
was anticipated in Sonora, may not have
bsen able to receive as yet the full CO.
operation expected and which is sure to
be realized. The Mexican officers all
recognize now that the Apache force
has probably been underrated. They
do not have that confidence that Crook
possesses in the Apache scouts with
him. Nothing could bo heartier or
more earnest than the feeling displayed
by the Mexican officers. They do not
believe that there is immediate danger,
but still fear that Crook is in danger

Ye. Thus, it reports for the year 1881,

fall Of 5.53 inches. The truth Is that
the rainfall for the year lSS0.Sl was
quite twice that figure. Though the
Times embodies a pretentious table in
Its article, 1t seems to have nc relation
to this section. The lowest rainful ever
reported from Los Angeles county was
In lS76.77-the famous season of
drouth when considerably more than
the precipitation reported by the Times
was officially recorded. The difficulty
with our esteemed contemporary seems
to bo that IL does not know when the
rainy season begins or ends in Southern
California. A little more local expert
ence will doubtless rectify this present
glaring inability of knowing what 1t is
talking about. In conclusion, we can
not do better than quote the words OF
this local pundit, viz: ''Whenever you
