More Business psr,ls.

The HERALp Of yesterday contained
an account Of the dangers encountered
by Messrs. Estudillo 4 Piso in supplying
the city with beef cattle during the re-
cent freshet. They were very fortunate
in escaping with their lives. In Ven.
tura county they tried the same plan
but with fatal results to two parties
we'll known in this city. The Santa Bar
bara Independent gives the following
facts in the case; Through J. Ramon
Malo Is learned the fact Of the drowning
Of Samuel Willie and Francisco Cordero,
the brother Of Stanislaus Cordero, we'll
known cattle dealer of this place. It
seems that Messrs. Malo and the latter
Cordero had bought some cattle in Los
Angeles county and "Pancho" Cordero,
- he was familiarity called, together
with Willie, went down on horseback to
bring them back The rains had swol-
len the rivers and streams oil along the
route and the trip back was attended
with much difficulty. All went well,
however, until the Santa Clara river was
reached. Cordsro and his companion
vsntured into it, trsachereus waters on
their horses, but both were swept down
stream and both drowned"

A Substitute for Matches.
fChicago Times.I


Countless accidents, as everyone
knows, arise from the use of matches.
To obtain light without employing
them, and SO without the danger of set.
ting things on FIRE, an ingenious con.
trivance is now used by the watch
men OF Paris in all magazines where
explosives or inflammabie materials are
kept. Anyone may easily make trial
of it. Take an oblong vial of the
whitest and clearest glass, and put into
it piece OF phosphorus about the sizs
of = pea. Pour some olive oil heated to
the boiling point upon the phosphorus;
fill the vial about one-third full and
then cork it tightly. To use this novel
light, remove the cork, allow the air
to enter the vial and then re-
cork it. The empty space in
the vial will become luminous and the
light obtained will be equal to that of q
lamp. When the light grows dim, its
power can be increased by taking out
the cork and allowing fresh supply Of
air to enter the vial. In winter it is
sometimes necessary TO heat the vial
between the hands in order to increase
the fuidity of the oil. The apparatus
thus made may be used for six months.

Herr Friedentnal's Concert.

A select audience assembled at Turn.
verein Hall last evening to be enter
tanned by Herr Albert Friedenthal, the
eminent young German piano virtuoso
and composer. The programme COM
prised several very difficult and popular
selections Of classical music, which were
given with superb and certain execu-
tion that elected continued applause
from an appreciative audience. To say
that Herr Prudential is grand as vir.
tuoso would be exaggeration, yet he is
entitled to great praise for his perfect
technique and rare sympathetic touch,
bringing out accurately the most infni-
tessimal note Of melodic harmony.
The concert was opened by violin
piece, the Polonaise Kuchenweister, by
Mr.. ]. Bond Francisco, . young must
clan Of considerable promise, though he
lacked that indescribable self.confidence
and abandon in rounding his notes which
H'Hs - oto q 80 sioihiot, anu prOuuCes
the sweetest melody. He plays too eau
tiousIy and follows the score too closely.
Mr.. Francisco was followed by Herr
Friedenthal, who played most difficult
transcription by Liszt, of Wagner's
Tannhauser March. Although quite
familiar to those cenversant with music,
the piece was received with delight, as
all its grandeur and majesty was brought
cut with force and precision. The Hun
garian Dances by Brahms were also very
fine, and served to illustrate the chang
ing temper of the Hungarian character.
A unique feature of the programme. the
Cauzonata selection by Prudential, in
which was introduced one OF Schubert's
best sereuades, in which the human voice
is rendered on the piano quite true to
nature. The concert closed with a
Rhapsodie, beautiful in harmony and
difiicnlt passages only to be properly
executed by master. 1t is to be hoped
that Herr Friedenthal will give another
concert in more propitious weather, so
that ell lovers of fine music may have
an opportunity to hear this distinguished
Virtuoso.

A Bonanza From the Deep

The good people Of Santa Barbara
have received a benefit in the shape of
an oleaginous whale, that has been cast
on the shore of that beautiful town.
From the Independent We gather the fol-
lowing elements of the find, which was
discovered by R. Elliott and J. B. OIL
yer, two well-known young men, who
were taking stroll along the beach
above the lighthouse. Upon finding it
they were not cognizant Of its value, but
nevertheless it had the appearance of
being . big thing and as q whale
seemed to be good thing to own, they
carved their names in its back, with the
date and hour of discovery, and with
true American enterprise, then and there
located their claim. This proved wise
precaution, as Sunday night the high
tide carried it out into the wide waters
Of the ocean, where it would
have become common property again
had not the inscription proved their
prior right. In the mean time the boys
reported their find to two friends, Clio
L. Lloyd and j. v. Elliott, who, realiz-
ing its value, entered into partnership
in the business, and tho four kept watch
until the wanderer washed in again
Monday morning. This time the hulk
was secured with ropes to prevent its
being again lost. and preparations made
to try out the blubber. Upon the arri-
val of reporter on the scene platform
had been built and the four whalers were
lowering kettle down the towering
cliff above the beach.
Two fires will be kept going night
and day and the work completed in i've
or six days.
''Thc amount of oil has beea estimated
variously by the old whalors who have
viewed it. As near as can be calculated,
however, 1t viii reach value Of nearly
$500. The whale is about fifsy.five feet
long by about the same in circumference,
its mouth opening back to the liberal
distance Of q feet. The tail fippsrs
measure about twelve feet from tip to
tip. The huge tongue had been laces
ated and the two or three barrels Of oil
it would have yielded are lost. The
fippers or fins are ponderous pieces
Of marine propellers measuring
about six feet each. It Is female Of
the California grey variety. The mass
Of flesh presents . rather imposing sight.

A New Railroad.

The Kern County Californian has the
following:
Last Sunday night there arrived here
Messrs. 8. NJ. Holmes, Of Oakland, and
w. 8. Smith, VIM. C. Alberger, and Mr.
White, of New York. They announced
that they werc here in the interest of a
narrow gage railroad, Incorporated un-
der the laws Of this State on the 23d ult.,
and named as above, designed to connect
Bakersfield with tide water and to take
the route of the west side of the San
Joaquin valley and reach this place by
way Of Hanford and swamp lands on the
east side of Tulare lake.
A meeting was held Monday evening
and two evenings following, in room
in Galtes' building, at which all our
principal citizens were present. These
meetings were presided over by Judge
Brundage, and an executive committee
composed of the following gentlemen
was appointed: K. E. Arick, H. H.
Fish, Pablo Galtes, Alphonse We'll and
L. s. Rogers; and in the course of these
meetings everything in relation to the
enterprise was explained to the satisfac-
eiou VI ctoiy Douys luuuuit0Dit PROOF,
suffice it to say. was produced that it
was OH a solid financial basis, and that
it had not been engaged in without a
thorough understanding of everything
necessary to know. The road is to be q
narrow three foot) gauge, the northern
terminus is to be at Antioch,
where line of steamers is to
connect with San Francisco, and
the southern terminus at Bakersfield as
stated. The route has been thoroughly
examined and all the resources of the
country, developed and undeveloped,
noted. The condition precedent to
building the road is, that the citizens
and property owners along the route
furnish the right of way and all the
land necessary, and bind themselves to
take 81 ZOO, 600 worth of the first mort
gage bonds. at par, on the completion
and equipment of the road ready for
business. The amount of these bonds
required to be taken by this county, on
those conditions, is 100000. Every.
where, from Antioch to this place,
they had met with perfectly satisfactory

County Roads.


The Anahsim Gazette, which uniform
ly stands in in favor OF public improve
ments, criticises the recommendation Of
the HERALD to build boulevard from
Pasadena via Los Angeles to Sanitation.
lea, and instead wants whole system of
county roads inaugurated. The trouble
is we cannot get SO many things at once.
The boulevard from Pasadena to Santa
Monica would be one of the most popu-
lar routes in the State. 1t would con.
meet popular settlement of 1000 people
with city Of 25,O00 inhabitants, and
one Of the most popular watering places
on the coast. This road would be a
great success from the start, and
would be the entering element to
q system of county roads all through the
county, all Of which are necessary, but
ell cannot be made at once. This road,
or boulevard" which seems to annoy
our excellent contemporary would have
twice the travel on it of any other coun-
ty road and wonld be such q success as
to stimulate our Supervisors to 20 forward
in the good work Of road making. There
is no use in making cheap roads. A
sheep path will do as we'll. The coun.
try demands the best OF roads as far and
., fast as they can be made. The HER
AID Is not in favor OF making one road
to the exclusion of others, but desires 10
see the most important made first, and
all the rest will follow it. at is the first
step that COSTS" and decides also; and il
that step is taken in a line patronized
by 28,00O people, II will be more pro.
ductive of beneficial results that il taken
among a population of half or quarter
Of that number. A good start is essen
tial, and . successful result is contagious
and begets other enterprises that will in
the end be successful. If we begin with
making one good, well-patronized boule.
ward, others will follow as naturally as
the night fellows the day. Such start
is the one recommended by the HERALD.
Besides on this proposed line the citizens
would assist by personal contributions
to make the road thing of beauty, and
this demonstration would have benefi.
cial effect in stimulating other parties,
or other lines, to give as they were
prospered to make similar highways. A
successful scheme that shall result in
good public highways is the object that
Is sought for by the HERALD.
