The Presidents Record as a Fisherman

CAMP ARTHUR, Gros Ventre river W. T.,
Aug, 1S.-At $50 this morning the Presi-
dent and party mounted their horses and
started for Camp Isham, marched down the
valley of the Gros Ventre river, and crossing
that stream to the north side about ten miles
from our camp of last night. Thence the
trail led away from the river through
canon and over the mountains at a consider
able elevation, although grades are not very
steep. After marching about fifteen miles
he party arrived at Lower Meson river
which was so attractive that the whole
party voted that we should remain here
tonight. In honor OF the President, General
Sheridan has called the camp, Camp Arthur.
Shortly after arrival things were gotten in
shape, and the party went fishing. General
Stager made the largest catch, Senator Vest
second and the President third. Captain
Clark came in this'evening from a two days,
hunt after elk and bear He had but little
success. All the party is we'll and enjoying
the fishing, hunting and mountain air with
the keenest zest.

ROUGHING 1T.
The Presidential Party Getting Brown and
Rugged in the Mountains.

CHICAGO, Aug ia telegram from Camp
Isham, Wyoming says: 1.-The President and
party left Camp Lincoln at Lincoln Pass
this morning, at 6:30, and continued their
march down the tributaries of the Gros
Ventre and the main stream a distance of
nineteen miles, going into camp at grassy
point on the main river, which has been
named Camp Isham, in honor of Hon. Ed
ward ]. Isham, OF Chicago. Camp Lincoln
was beautiful spot, presenting to the eye
toward the east and north all the grandeur
of the Shoshone range of snow-clad noun
tains, and west and south the snow-capped
peaks of the Gros Nentre range. Pines
and tamaracks cover the base and lower lines
of the range, opening at intervals into
grassy parks. The descent down the noun
tains 10 the valley of the Gros Ventre is rug
ged, but was accomplished by the President
and party without accident, they only dis
mounting at one steep and difficult place.
AS we approached Camp Isham a depression
in the range enabled us to get view of the
lofty peaks of the Teton range, at the base of
which we will encamp tomorrow night.
Secretary Lincoln and Captain Clark, with
Indians, started early this morning in pur-
suit OF elk. They will render no doubt, a
good account by bringing into camp tonight
the results of fine days sport in a country
which abounds in game. The President and
the remainder oil the party by reason of
both exercise and rest which the trip has
given them, are in excellent health and spir-
it's, and are not in the least fatigued by their
ride on horseback. The weather is cool, the
air delicious and invigorating, and the seem
cry grand.

ST. CHARLES HOTEL.


Some time since the Inder published
an account OF the attempted poisoning
of ]. F. Wood, of this place, by his wife,
although no names at the time were
given. The poison was administered,
but the intended victim recovered from
the effects of the drug. Mr.. Wood i'm
mediateH instituted proceedings for a
divorce from this creature, who came to
San Bernardino under the name of Mrs.
Dawson. As her intention in admins
tering the poison to her husband had
been to recover his property, so now she
has the impudence to claim alimony,
which would be all right did not several
little matters stand in the way, the most
serious of which is the fact that she has
already two husbands, from whom she
has never been divorced. The other
two men with whom she went through
the form of marriage ceremony were
Mr. Harp, her first and only real hus.
band, and a Mr.. Dawson, both of
Bakersfield, Kern county. California.
Both of these she attempted to poison
at different times, and although detected
was allowed to escape ON account of her
sex. The records of the Court at
Bakersfield shows the divorce granted
her husband, Dawson, but affords no
relief to her. A correspondent from
Kern county gives the above particu-
lars. but refrains from giving his name,
for fear life and property would be in
danger. "-Saa Bernardiao Iader.

fastened with peculiar paddock. When
opened, 1t swings on hinges in the mid

double the size, an effect caused by
showing the entire interior, which con-
tains over two hundred convenient boxes
Of size to hold legal documents and

The Ostrich Farm.

Twenty-Five ostriches arrived yester.
day from South Africa. by the s. P. z.
R., and were taken to their new home,
about three miles from Costa Station on
q farm of $40 acres that has been pur-
chased for their residence. These rare
and valuable birds are valued at $1,000
apiece, and the whole band occupying a
baggage car, was insured for $40, 900 in
the Accident Insurance Company for the
benefit Of their owners and not for their
relstives as is the manner Of other
bipeds. This lot Of birds, the first of
their kind to settle on this coast. stand
six and half feet high without boots,
and attract great attention. While
waiting over at the depot for the Ana
helm train, they amused the spectators
about the car by swallowing some large
oranges that were given them, without
the trouble Of mastication. Their pow
ers of degiutition were an astonishment
to those who saw them exercised. DR..
c. j. Sketchley, Of South Africa, had
charge Of the birds. and we hope he will
be successful in his efforts to raise them
in our county,

The New Tariff.

With all the shortcomings Of the
Forty Seventh Congress, California has
reason to feel that her interests have in
a measure received attention. Our Con-
gressional delegation has been a unit in
looking after the interests of the State.
without regard to party politics. At
the first session we obtained valuable
appropriations for rivers and harbors.
while for the last session the Tariff Bill
is especially beneficial to this State and
to the county of Los Angeles.
The new law increases the duty on
still wines from 40 to so cents per gallon,
with no allowance as formerly for leak
age. This tan will pretty effectually
stop the importation of these wines into
the State. They are rapidly disappear
ing as appears by the statistics of the
Custom House. In 1872 the United
States imported 5,972,42S gallons of
wine from France in the wood. while in
1881 only one third that amount was
imported.
At the same time the importations of
wine from Germany declined from 9SS,-
456 gallons to 22s,93l. The tariff on
these wines is now more than the wines
are actually worth, and will drive
this low grade Of light wine
from the State. In fact it is nearly
shut out already. The Importation into
San Francisco in 1873 of wine in wood
was Ola, 24O, while in 1881 it was only
los, 562 gallons.
Any person of intelligence can at once
perceive that with tax of fifty cents
per gallon on light wines in wood, il
will be impossible to import them be-
cause the California Zinfandel can be
purchased for forty cents per gallon,
while the foreign of similar quality will
cost seventy cents without any profit to
the importer.
This especial favor to California we
must accord to the Forty seventh Con-
gress, and that will atone for many of
Its sins of omission and commission.
Heavy wines from Europe. are taxed
the same. with the further provision that
If they contain over "a per cent. of alec.
hol they will be confiscated.
The readers of the HERALD need not
be told that when they order French
claret or German hook, hereafter, in
California. they will get California wine
with beautiful French label printed in
San Francisco or Oakland. Our wine-
makers cannot help but prosper under
the operation of this law, if they only
make good wine. In this great industry
Los Angeles county will hereafter oc.
cupy the front rank, and the city Of Los
Angeles will he known as the great wine
market of the West.

What Causes It.

Ten years ago there were many groups
of orange trees about fifteen to twenty
years old bearing heavily with large
luscious fruit. But, mark the change.
Those thick clusters of trees have
nearly disappeared. As the first sign of
decadence the fruit became very small,
changing from ruddy yellow to straw
color. Then the ends of the branches
began to die slowly. and the trees, in
the absence Of fresh growth, commenced
decrease in the size of their beautiful
crowns. the leaves grew palsr year by
year, till the axe was called in requisi.
ton to relieve the ground Of useless
tree and monumental ruin.
All this time cultivation went on
around the trees and irrigation was not
neglected. No scale bug or red spider
Slapped the life of the trees and no frost
froze their juices. What caused their
decay has never been satisfactorily
explained. Under proper condi-
