Our Neighbors Happy.

The San Diego County Star has this
to say about the present storm: "Our
county was visited with one of
the best rains of the season,
commencing last Sunday and ending last
Tuesday evening. Accompanied by n
strong, driving southerly wind, the rain
was thoroughly imbedded in the EARTH
Though the rain was general over the
county, we do not assert that it fell con
tinuously in any one locality, except,
perhaps, in the mountain districts,
for, Judging from this and the
surrounding country, steady show
era seemed to predominant. But
we do know that enough wa
ter has fallen to give new impetus TO
our farming industry, and feel assured
that golden harvest will be reaped
this season. Fully two inches of rain
on an average can safely be said TO have
fallen over the county, and we have
heard several remark that it was the
best rain OF the season. Last Thursday
the sky was again overcast and rain
could be seen falling during the day in
the mountain districts, and about sun
down the watery elements again began
to fall, raining steadily all night and
during yesterday, up to the hour of go
ing to press.

The Ostrich Farm.

Extensive improvements have been
made at the ostrich farm lately. A
tight board fence now excludes the os.
triches from the view OF the public from
the view OF the ostriches, an arrange
ment which makes it possible for the
birds to pay more attention to the scr
ious coucerns OF life. and less attention
to what is going an outside thr pad
docks. The birds are doing exceedingly
well, aud the next Matching season.
which begins in q few weeks-is expect
ed to result in the stocking OF the farm
with hundreds OF chicks.
The Company have purchased 800
acres of land where the farm ia, and
Superintendent Sketchley intends to
make it model place. He is now build.
ing reservoir 81 acres in extent, which
can be filled every nine days by the ar.
tesian well, and which will contain wa
ter enough for the irrigation of at least
$50 acres. The plan for this year EN-
brace the planting Of eighty acres of al.
falfa and many thousands of blue gums
in belts throughout the farm. The seed
of tree new in this vicinity-the black
wattle-has been procured from Austria
liza and will be planted in nursery this
season. The waffle is rapid grower
much more so than the eucalyptus, and
is superior to it as iirewood.-Aurheim

The John Sherman who Ia seeking TO
resurrect the ''bloody shirt" in our pres
ent politics is the same John Sherman
who was as poor as church.mouse un-
I'll he entered The Congress- Of the United
States. Since that halcyon epoch, for
him, he has waxed rich beyond the
dreams OF avarice, and he has accom-
plished this miracle on salary which
was never larger than $4,000 year. and
which ranged from that figure TO $4,000
per annum and even to much lower
figure. his yearly personal expenses be-
ing greatly in excess OF his legitimate in
come. No greater good luck could hap
pen to the people Of the United States
than TO have this barterer of the oppor
tunities for profit involved in the betrayal
Of public trusts once fairly outlined as a
Presidential aspirant. There is world
Of difference in the Sherman family.
Old Tecumseh, who fought like hero
for the Union, never stole anything;
and, besides, he never had any patience
with the "bloody shirt" His often ex-
pressed opinion was and is that the gov
ernment Of the United States, having re-
established its rightful and restricted
authority, ought TO leave the several
States of the Union TO attend TO their
own affairs. What contrast is this be-
tween the two brothers-the one illus
trious as a soldier, poor and breathing
peace and good will towards his late ad-
vcrsaries, the other unrighteously and
disproportionately enriched and seeking
to fan the dying embers Of sectional
strife into baleful and destructive

A Little Mixed.

A Washington dispatch says: Eli
johnson served as q private in Company
G., First California Calvary, during the
war Upon the close of the war he
heard that his wife, who resided in Ohio,
had died, and he returned to California
Fro IN there he went to the mining camp
Of Luning, Esmeralda county, New,
where he now resides. Some time since
he applied for his pension, under the
arrearages of pension law. The Pension
Office being rather slow in the matter,
he sent note here to Representative
Cassidy of Nevada, asking him to hurry
up his pension case. Cassidy went to
the Commissioner of Pensions as request
ed, and was surprised to find that the
wife Of johnson, supposing that he died,
had put in an application tor the pension
and arrearages, amounting to about
$4,000. Her application is still pending,
having been filed three years ago. The
woman now resides in Henry county, o.
She has married man MINED Sill, and
in her application only claimed a pension
to the time she was married the second
time. Cassidy has written to johnson,
telling him how the case stands and
why 1T was held back. He will also
write to Mrs. Sill and tell her Johnson
is living. and allow them to settle the
matter any was they desire.

The great cry amongst our people,
urban, suburban and country, is that we
must have passable roads as to the
county at large, and paved streets as
to our principal city thoroughfares. We
may as well come toi first as last. With
all our rightful prctensions to semi-tropic
beauty Los Angeles, ms soon as the cur.
rent storm subsidies, will be reeking
exhalntor of stale smells, certainly not
conducive to health and productive Of
anything but pleasure to the denizens
Of this city and to the strangers within
our gates. The first duty of the City
Council is to have the noisome muck
shoveled from our streets and carted of
to suburban fields, where it may serve
as fertilizer. The second is to take
steps to compel the paving of all the
principal streets, notably Spring and
Main streets, from the Pico House to
the junction. There is no earthly rea-
son why this most needed work should
be delayed week longer. If our muni-
cipal laws have been so contrived as to
render this needed change impossible
immediate steps should be taken TO
modify them. Human patience cannot
longer endure the intolerable municipal
dispensation under which we are now

Advantases Of small Farms.

In an interview with ]. N. Bailhache,
ESQ.,, during the past week, be informed
us that about ten years ago he divided
one hundred acres Of bottom land, ad-
joining his homestead, and sold II out In
five to fifteen acre lots. at $50 per acre.
The year that he laid 1t out the land was
mostly in wheat. and though II brought
good price, he did not clear 10 exceed
$1,000. This year there has been sold
from this land about go tons OF plums
and peaches, at an average of $50 per
ton; there are yet remaining, probably,
so tons Of apples, worth $50 per ton.
There Is also on this property 27 acres Of
hops that will probably yield 1900
pounds per acre, or l6i tons, for which,
it is not unreasonable to believe,
they will average S4O0 per ton.
In addition to the above, there
has been raised oil this landj IA
large quantity of small fruits, melons
and vegetables, to the value Of more
than $1,000. If che who has caused two
blades of grass to grow where one grew
before" is entitled to so much credit,
what will be said of the above statement,
when we state that. in addition to all
this, this property is now supporting
eleven families in comfort, and to their
yearly profit; that one exceptional acre
produced in pluns over $500, and that
over $1,000 will have been paid from
these small holdings for labor during
the current ye r.. mostly to women and
children, little calculation will show
that this property will have produced,
this year. nearly $4,000, in addition to
the material aid afforded in the suste-
nance Of families instead of $1,000. the
income ten years ago.-Russion River

Sale of Richmond Horses.

Mr. n. A. Covarrubias yesterday sold
tina. beautiful span of Richmonds, that
were so much admired on oar streets, to
Gen. W. IL. l.. Barnes, of San Francisco,
through J. McCord, agent for Gen.
Barnes. 1t is understood that the price
was $500. The horses were "Pinal, +"

old; and "Judge Wallace, four years
old, by Richmond, dam st. Clair. The

perfection, and the horse breeders are
always striving to get the best.

The Latest Swindle.

In London, lately, two well-dressed
men entered the shop of fashionable
tradesman and asked to see the chief of
the establishment, whom they privately
informed that they were detectives from
Scotland Yard. The men said that from
information received that they knew
two "swell women" would drive up to
the shop in brougham and order tapes
try to alarge amount, paying for the same
with a forged check for ESQ, bearing
the name of well known nobleman
1t would, however, be necessary, in
order to properly convict the women,
to allow them to carry the goods off
with them, and take the change of the
check. But in order that they should
not escape, the detectives were to have
hanSom with fast horse, to follow
the brougham and take the ladies into
custody. The officers took their stand
behind the counter; the "ladies" came,
ordered the goods, and rendered the
check. The detectives immediately fol-
lowed in their hanson with the fast
"horse.' The tradesman is still wait.
ing for the goods.

The Oldest Man in the Senate.

Van Wyck, OF Nebraska, is the Oldest
man in the Senate, writes Washington
correspondent. He looks for all the
world down to the neck like the conven-
tional Mother Goose His smooth shaved
face is crowned with gray hair, and his
snappy eyes blink through spectacles.
If he had ruff and gown he would be a
perfect Mother Goose. He has an angu-
lar figure and g peculiarly shrill voice.
He used to be member from New
York. For some years he has grown
up with the country out West. He
has grown out Of it into the Senate.
There he amuses himself by taking
unusual and startling views of questions
and then voting regularly with the
party. His special delight is to attack
some member of the administration.
Attorney General Brewster and Secre-
tary Teller are the special objects of his
regard. He is very quick and breezy,
and looks almost as young as his girl
wife, despite his wrinkles and gray hair.
He thinks he will come back to the SEN
ate as long as he lives. But he has
built rather good looking house up on
Massachusetts, avenue, which will prob
ably prevent all that. Good houses are
fatal to Western statesmen.

THAT the school accommodations of
Los Angeles are greatly inadequate will
astonish no one when the fact is Under
stood that the number of school children
clamoring tor accommodation in Janu
ary, 1884, is fully sixty-fve per cent.
greater than in January, 1882. In city
which is growing with such phenomenal
rapidity as our own it is excusable that
we should be little behindhand in our
school accommodations, but it would be
inexcusable to permit this long to be the
case. Los Angeles, considering her po.
sition and climatic advantages, ought
not only to provide ample facilities for
her own young ones, but ought, as well,
to be great educational center. Ii our
present system is not sufficiently flexible
to compass one or both of these results,
it ought to be Immediately amended
The young idea, here as elsewhere, must
be taught to shoot, and the schoolmaster
must not be suffered to be abroad in the
inyidious sense.

under the head of Letters From the
People. - A well-known citizen, in our

emphatically differ from him in many
respects. Taking it for all in all, we be
lieve that the lot bounded by Temple,
New High and Buena Vista streets is
the most eligible in the city for that

that no plan for the new building should

Camphor Matinees.

This is the latest craze of fashionable
society ladies who. semi-invalids, and
debarred from the pleasures of gay life,
are invited to the house of one of their
number, and requested to bring their
bottles. The hostess receives them in
stylish negligee and seated in a reclining
position with her camphor bottle in her
hand. Soon all the visitors are seated,
bottles are produced, and the hostess
opens the ball by uncorking her bottle
and taking a preliminary sniff. Then
all the guests take sniff; meanwhile
envious and distressed glances are di.
rected to cut glass and decorated bottles
and one lady upsets the equilibrium of a
whole company by appearing with col.
ored camphor. The correct thing is an
ordinary alf-pint white bottle with q
cork stopper, but red or blue ribbon
may be tied around its neck. The effect
on the camphor sniffers is said to be
both soothing and exhilerating, but a
few spteful outsiders declare that it is a
benefit to the complexion. Be this as it
may, the fact remains that 1t is the very
latest dissipation in the fluid refreshment
line.
