Cheap and Healthful Food.

The proposition in the HERALD, for
company to gather fish off the island of
Santa Catalina by means Of an electric
light, meets with great popular favor.
1t would be perfect Gsd-send to the
people of Los Angeles, especially in hot
weather when meat cannot be- trans
ported without ice to preserve it from
decomposition, and when fish will not
bear exposure to the sun. The expense
will be but trihing All that is needed
is q series of boxes of wood, or galvan-
lied iron, with hinged covers, in which
to carry and contain the fish, and good
net with an electric light in a globe.
such as is used by the U. S. Fish Com
mission for submarine service.
General Banning is now completing
one Of the feetest steamers on the Coast,
the Amelia, to ply between San Pedro
and Santa Catalina, and with his ac-
customed enterprise would NJ doubt
take stock in such company and carry
the delicious finny fellows to the ears at
a moderate cost. The cost Of sub
marine light will shortly be. .ascertained
by the accomplished agent of the Brush
Electric Light is this city, Mr.. C. H.
Howlan /, who is in constant commune
cation with the manufacturers of these
submarine machines and will render
all necessary aid in getting thu matter
under headway. General Banning will
probably have an incanlescent light on
his gem of steamer, which everybody
says is daisy of boat that can show
her heels to any steamer on the Coast.
Parties in San Francisco who have read
the notice of the enterprise in the HER
AID. are desirous of engaging in the
business.
The problem in plain terms is this:
''Given, the best, smoothest and safest
fishing ground in the world, within
seventy-fve minutes of market; to
find, a small capital to take and carry
the fish to market at ctst Of probably
cent a pound" The solution should
be made in few weeks.

Iron for Peach Trees.

The valuable tonic properties Of iron
are well known, but are now demon
strated in a new way on this coast. al
though it has heretofore been used to
some extent in the manner described in
the East. The gentleman who made
the trial in this State is Mr.. Wagner,
who bought peach orchard of twenty
acres for song, as it was in very bad
condition-full of dead limbs and yellow
leaves, with gum oozing out of the
crotches. He went to work and gave
the land dressing of iron filings, as
well as old plo VS., etc.. broken into large
pieces. He also used the Stag from iron
furnaces, ground fine. The first appli-
cation was only about two years since,
and yet the result has been marvellous.
The trees have lost their unhealthy ap.
pearance and renewed their youth. The
hide bound bark is now healthy, the
leaves green, and the dreaded borer has
disappeared. The trees are now bear
ing as we'll as the most sanguine could
expect. while but two years since they
were apparently worthless, revivitied
by simple but successful process. Er
change.

Magnetism. the New Source of
Health.

DR.. 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 aud all other
medicines in his treatment and relies
solely on the powers of magnetism. An
experience of several years in the Aus
tralian colonies, San Francisco. Salt
Lake City and Denver, in which places
he has treated successfully thousands Of
persons, enables him to assert with con-
fidence that he can cure diseases which
have deiied the application OF medical
science. Magnetism is the life principle
within MS. The air we breath is charged
with it. Itis the vital force emanating
from all persons and that which con-
meets the sonl with the body. In sup
port OF this theory he cures acute pains
instantly, local pains in a few days, and
builds up the most shattered constitu-
tions in a short time. DR.. Robbins, who
has worldwide reputation for his ex-
traordinary cures of difficult and COM
plicated diseases, possesses power to
relieve and cure allkinds of disease. Dr.
Robbins diagnoses diseases free of charge
without explanation from the patient

lington & Quincy Railroad, and another
belonging to the Atchison, Topeka a

TIE long travel over the plains and
the poor facilities for getting good meals
makes it necessary that a good lunch be
provided for. This can be best accom-
plished by visiting the grocery store Of
H. Jevne, 40 Spring street. the only
place in Los Angeles where can be found
a line of goods such as are kept by the

A One Armed sport and Thief Well

A One Armed sport and Thief Well
Known Here.
Charles A.. Bassett, the one.armed foot.
racer who appeared here at the first State
Fair, and was arrested for robbing guests ai
the Mcclure House, turns up every now and
then In sonie new operation OF the same sort
The latest adventure he has met with Is q
very peculiar one. At Newcolnerst0wn, O.,
on sunday, he was arrested on a charge Of
robbing the United States Express office
there about Ave weeks ago. The office, which
Is located in the Wheeling & Lake Erie sta.
ton, was broken open and quantity OF
iewelry and watches, which had been done
up in paper box. was stolen, but the empty
boz was left The special agent OF the CON-
pany and Detective ellis called on the Hgent,
MIR. a. d. Thompson, shortly after the rob
berry, and asked N see the paper box In which
the watches and jswelry had been expressed,
and on examining the bcx they found that
1t had been torn open by the teeth OF some
party, as the marks were plainly observable
on the sides OF the box. The fact that the
thief had torn tho box open with bis teeth
seemed TO give evidence tnst he was one.
armed man, aud the special agent and the
detective at once got into the confidence OF
BAssett, aud the sgent gave him an appoint-
ment as a sort ofdetective in certain cases,
thus becoming more intimate with him.
Finally the detective succeeded by some
means In getting the impression OF Bassetts
teeth on wax. and on comparing this impress
sion with that on the torn express package,
they exactly correspondent, aud on this eyi.
dence Bassett was arrested. Bassett was
tsken to the county seat in custody Of the
Sheriff, who brought him from Columbus.
1t will be remembered be was under indict-
ment for. robbing the Panhandle Express
office there Of 5000 worth Of goods two years
ago, but after three trials the indictment
was nollied, s!
