and Is eleven acres In extent. A zanJa runs
on two sides OF the farm, on the north and
east, and affords abundant irrigation when
necessary. When filtered, the water Is very
pure for domestic use. The products from
this farm yield about 81 100 per year, net or
500 per acre, with the expense Of taxes and
water only, as everything Is raised on the
place for the use of the family, except meat,

EDITOR lIERALD;-A few days since the
Clerk Of Los Angeles made an error In send
ing out a certificate to one Juan Antonio Pc
req to come to Los Angeles and qualify for
the Office of " alter Ovcrseer for San Gabriel
precinct, quite to the surprise of Mr. Juan
Antonio and his friends. When, upon the
strength of his supposed election. he called
all his friends and nelghbors around and
treated and made merry to the extent Of
some eight or ten dollars, we should judge,
as several went home that night quite jolly (;
while his opponent, J. n. Miller, went to bed
quite sad man. Next day, however. he be.
thought himself to Ny to Los Angeles and
see II the mistake could not be rectifed.
Then and there the Clerk went over his pa
pers and found out the mistake, and imme.
diately J. N. Miller was Informed that he
was the gentleman who would take charge
of the ditch again for another term, and he
tonic out In the cold wiser man, and out
of pocket few dollars for the benefit of his
friends.
II was but few days after receiving his
certificate that Juan Antonio went to Los
Angeles to qualify. But one can imagine
his disappointment when he got there and
found oui his opponent had been there and
rectifed the mistake and had already quail
flied. Now Juan. Antonio IL n wiser and
madden man than ever. The people of San
Gabriel do not care II an occurrence OF the
same kind takes place often, when there Is n
chance to get free drink.
Yours respectfully,
CITIZEN

Cresceuta Canvadu,

A visit to the salubrious heights of Cres-
centa Canada is pure delight, The air is
dry, pure and stimulating. The work Of
improvement In clearing of the brush is
going ahead at rapid rate, and In few
days the early winter growing crops win be
planted.

Eleven houses have been erected and
trees have been engaged to plant during the
winter. II is supposed that 10000 trees will
be there planted during the winter. The
warm equable climate, and freedom from
wind and frost, will make this one of the
most favored spots for the growth of semi
tropic fruits OF various kinds. An effort
viii be made to cultivate the banana and
the melon shrub. Oranges, lemons and
lines grow to great perfection on that high
Land plateau, while cherries there attain the
largest size and greatest excellence. The
settlement Is well under way and seems to
be the favored spot for health above all 9TH

Los Angeles OIL Development Ex-
hibitiOu mt New Orleans.

Mr.. Burdett Chandler arrived in town
from Petrolia yesterday, and reports well
No 3, i25 feet deep, with 100 feet of oil in the
same Water has been shut OF from the
well, so that the yield is all oil. The gravity
of the oil is steadily becoming lighter, and
he expects to get light oil at lower depths.
The work of sinking wells ut petrolia is
very particular business, owing to the
broken character Of the rocks and the near
ness to the oil reservoir, which makes an in
clination of the broken rocks so that the
pieces fall In and catch the tools at times,
Such q state of things requires the utmost
caution to avoid losing tools in the well. MIR.
Snow, in his WELL at a depth of 325 feet, has
fine show, and brings up oil In the sand
pump regularly. lie viii go deeper to obtain
larger supply There are now three wells
at Petrolia, from which petroleum could be
pumped in paying quantities, which is
very encouraging showing
The Chandler OIL Company are now pre-
pairing an assortment of the oils of Petrolia
for exhibition at the Worlds Fair at New
Orleans. II will include the heaviest, crude
lubricating OIL refined lubricating oil, light
crude oil, crude product Of petroleum in the
form of asphaltum, both raw and roasted.
This exhibit will be an object of much in
terest, and doubtless attract capital to Los
Angeles to be invested In the oil develop
ment of our opulent county.

The Alameda street l6-inch sewer has been
progressing rapidly since the second work
was commenced. The excavation Is now
north Of High street
For q wonder the San Pedro train down
yesterday morning had no fiat cars, but
eighteen loaded box cars, six OF them filled
with Berkshire hogs, destined for NJ, Dods-
worth's slaughter aud packing house near
Florence. Some of the train was merchan-
disc for way stations.
The two coal ships recently mentioned In
the HERALD. as having been In the ofiing at
San Pedro, are unloading rapidly, making
coal the bulk OF the freight Of the San Pedro
train, and but little lumber The average
number Of loaded coal ears at the switch at
the old depot, daily. Is ten, and Is trans
ferred by large number of carts TO the cor
rails where they sell coal
Probably some suggestions OF the HERALD
that the dangerous hummocks on Alameda
street. where the sewer was laid, had Its eff
feet. Yesterday morning corps OF EN-
ployees leveled the sand and stones, and
hauled the surplus to Seventh street In
carts. The hummock was altogether re-
moved In the afternoon from ; irst street to
Olvera street, and Alameda street Is again MS
passable as Los Angeles street, the debris
from which was removed at once on the
completion of the sewer.

The ladies of the Congregational Church
gave social last night at their sanctuary on
the corner of hin and Third streets. There
was ample room in the building to accom-
modate all who were in attendance. A
literary and musical programme had been
arranged but a number of those who were
to charm the audience failed TO attend
Some of the spectators, however, generous
ly came to the front and quite pleasant
little entertainment was afforded. A vocal
solo by Miss Wester was worthy of mention.
aud Mr.. and Miss Jones rendered u Duet
ON violin and piano very acceptably, Miss
Nichols gave reading. Refreshments were
served; there can be no mistake about this
statement for a newspaper fiend saw the
people eating. The refreshments were also
good, at least the people seemed to enjoy
them. The reporter was not feeling wen
and did not eat
After refreshments some of the young
ladies and gentlemen engaged In a calisthe-
mic exercise, probably as an aid TO diges
ton. This exercise consisted of slapping
each others hands, keeping time to a sort OF
runic rhyme.
Another one of these pleasant socials will
be given soon, and II the reporter is well he
will attend with large sized appetite con.
cealed about his person.

The new immigration movement is clus-

Bear Valley Land and Water Company, over
200 of which have been recently purchased
by enterprisng land owners in the eastern

vigorously pushed during the past season
and is now nearly completed. 1t Is II most
solid and substantial piece of masonry, and

has labored hard to accomplish in
the last few months what seemed

water is steadily rising and from all present
indications very moderate rainfall will
snflice TO I'LL the reservoir the coming win
ter. The experience of the last summer
goes to show that seepage there is not wor-

and spreads over 400 acres. A large supply
still remains in the upper lake of the com
pany. II is not generally known that above
these two bodies OF water is still another
lake which is some three miles long in the

city Parties who desire a first class range,
the Medallion Is conceded by all who have

Los Angeles Cattle Abroad.

The Arizona Enterprise of Nov. 18th has
this to say about Los Angeles cattle: "Mr. c.
L. Whitney. Of Pinal, passed through here
sunday, with herd Of fine graded cattle
which he bought in Los Angeles, Cal, and
shipped out to Casa Grande by rail The
herd consisted of twelve heifers and one
thoroughbred Holstein yearllng bull The
latter was sired by Nero, an imported Hol-
stein, an is probably the best bred animal
in the county. Mr. whitney displays com
mendable enterprise in bringing from Los
Angeles these blooded cattle, but he will be
amply rewarded for it in the end. 1t always
pays to grade up cattle. Mr.. Whitney has
an excellent ranch at Pinal. His water sup
ply is furnished by an artesian well, the
only genuine artesian water In Arizona lie
