The numerous friends OF the Misses
Rose and Nettis Harwood, formerly Of
Orange. will be panied to hear that they
are both seriously i'll with mountain
fever at Calico, where their father, Mr..
ID. M. Harwood, is engaged in mining.
This fever prevailed in that camp last
year, but it was Thought that with the
copious rains Of the present year that
the disease would not re-appear this sea-
sou. Two girls have died Of that disease
already in Calico during this month.
What is the matter!
The Anaheim Ga=ette says: captain
Healey, the engineer employed by the
owners Of the Stearns ranchos, is now
engaged in running levels to ascertain
whether the Cajon ditch can carry wa
ter on to La Habra rnncho. There can
be little doubt that the grade of the
ditch is such as to permit Of water being
carried to that rancho. and there is still
less doubt that, with m abundance of
water, there is no part Of the county
which would be more fertile than La
Habra.
1t is cause of great surprise to most
people in this city to see what tremen-
d,us hat trade is done by Desmond the
Halter. They should not wonder, for
the man who buys a 81 hat from me
pays S275 for it; the man who buys a
81 hat from me pays 81 for it; the man
kok ma &I IN
for it, aud so on down to the intinitcs-
sinai sum of 25c. for good hat.
Although not advertised, it has been
decided to give at the prize shooting OF
the Turn Bezirk to-day fine silver COB
let for the best shot at 200 yards, and a
valuable prize for the second best. 1t is
understood that some very fine shots
from San Francisco and sacramento are
with the Turner's from those places, so
that our sharp-shooters will have to be
on their good behavior to-day.
Another man supposed to be impli-
Gated in the Compton burglary, was ar
rested last night by Officer Lynch. He
gave the name Of James Malonsy, and
ON his person were found five OF those
peculiar iacl, that have o whole
kit Of tools in them, and kee nips and
other burglarious tools. The right man
has probably been caught.
Mr.. AL. Workman yesterday brought
to the HERALD Office four different sam
pies of wheat from the San Fernando
valley. The heads are well filled and
heavy, and although some portions Of
the fields may rust little, there is
enough vigor and richness in the soil to
fill out the grain in . fairly plump and
profitable manner.

capitalist Of Sacramento. arrived from
the nor.h last night aud is registered at
the st. Elmo. Mrs. Beckman accompa-
