,us,reid,,s condition.

MIR. Lustfedt, who was shot by the
villains on Wednesday night, is very low
from the effects of his wounds. The
shooting took place as stated In the
HERALD, between the County Hospital
and the powder house, where tho road
runs along side the railroad and through
low p zee OF adobe ground, which is
now very rough. Tho shots took effect,
two in the heshy part OF the upper left
arm. aud the third in the back part Of
the left shoulder blade. 1t is very evi.
dent that two Of the men were forward
of the wagon and one behind, aud that
all three of the cold blooded devils fired
at the region of the heart, intent on
killing their helpless victim.
After the shots were fired the startled
horses ran away, and thus carried their
master out oil range Of the muir.
derous villains. When approaching
the Five.mile house Lustfeldt cried
out for help aud the inmates
stopped the team and took him in. 1t
is the desire of his daughters, who are
both with him, as also of his frien 3
here, to bring him to the city as soon as
the doctor will permit of his being
moved.
The fast that Lustieldt wore very
heavy clothing including an unusually
thick overcoat, saved his life. The
force of the balls, which were of large
ealibre and fired at close range with de
liberate and perfect aim at the most
vital parts of the body, was spent in
passing through the thick garments.

out, cures all diseases of the scalp, and
gives immediate relief IN cases of nerv.
GUS headaches. It is prepared and put

Jacques Kruger, the comedian, is in
the city He is likely to rival Adolf
Sonnenthal, the German TRACED an, in
the matter of "gluecksengel" that
being the German name which Sonnen-
thai gives 10 a pretty woman who has
followed him from place to place for the
past twelve years, and whose presence
has always brought him good luck
Invariably he has bad luck when
she is absent MIR. Kruger, fear
ing the ridicule of the press and the
anger of his wife, has never, until lately,
revealed the fact that very beautiful
woman has dogged his movements Tor
the past two years, only appearing, how
ever, in the larger towns. jacques has
not escaped her this trip, as his ''gieuck
sengel, as he now calls her, took up her
position in the box of the Academy Of
Music in Buffalo, last Monday night, on
the occasion of the first production of
his new play, Dreams. jacques believes
in her, as the play was success and
business large
Singularly enough, on the occasion OF
his ill.luck in St. Louis and Washington
City this winter she was absent from
those cities, or at least did not put IN
an appearance. Jacques Kruger has
never spoken to her, nor she to hun, but
Jacques says che is willing to-. The
lady is comely brunette, whose plain
but elegant attire is noticeable. As the
lady arrived in Milwaukee from Chicago
yesterday afternoon, il is almost fair to
presume that seat at the Academy
will be occupied by her at Mr.. kruger's S
performance in this city IN. Y. World.
Mr. Kruger and his company appear
at the Opera House Monday in the
aforementioned play. "The Skating
Rink" will be given at the Wednesday

Is the Orange Crop injured by
ErOslP


This is a question of good deal of
interest to Los Angeles and all South.
ern California. The HERALD has been
at good deal OF pains to get at the facts.
The result of these inquiries are to the
effect that probably little or no harm has
been done up to this time, and that, if
this is correct, there is little fear of any
damage to follow, The orange crop has
been frozen in Los Angeles only once to
any extent. That was three years ago,
and in the month of February. That
year the thermometer fell inSan Gabriel
Valley as low as "a degrees above zero,
or degrees below the freezing point
of water. This cold wave continued for
severl nights and while oranges were
not effected by the cold Of the first night
they were on the second, and on the
third, when the low point previously
noted was reached, the fruit was frozen
solid. This year the lowest point reach.
ed by the Signal Service record has been
30 degrees or Just the freezing point of
water From some localities a lower
temperature has been reported, but it
must be remembered that the Signal
Service report is the one to compare the
cold of three years ago with that of the
present time, as it is the standard. At
Riverside the mercury reached, a few
nights ago, 26 degrees, or 6 degrees be-
low the freezing point of water. This
was only for few moments. and all
through Southern California there has
been no long continued spell Of cold.
