Oil Galore.

Reports from most reliable source
reach this city to the effect that the
oil borers in Adams' canon in the
Sespe country, Ventura county, have
struck it rich, to quote from Bret IIarte.
The flow, as Dame Rumor represents,
equals 100 barrels day for the last
we'll sunk. 1t is said, moreover, by
the tongue of this loquacious old lady,
that the we'll is capped as well as they
can cap it to keep the oil from flowing
in even larger measure. As it is there
are no means at hand to take care Of
such a Puctolean stream, and this
richness is running wild all over the
country. they, are leading it into all
sorts OF natural recepticals TO prevent
an ipdudation by the oleaginous flood
If this is true, as most like it is, the
good news is of the very highest i'm.

ference will be made to the subject at

Blaine and Belmont.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.--It has been
said that Mr.. Blaine will use his influ-
epce to prevent the confirmation of MIR.
Belmont as minister to Spain. A gen
tleman who is familiar with the facts
connected with the famous controversy
between Blaine and Belmont, which &C.
Cured some years ago, is quoted by the
Star this evening as saying that neither
had cherished any such ill-will toward
the other as would result in a desire for
revenge or retaliation. Both, he said,
have since regretted the great publicity
given to the affair, and they have care
fully avoided speaking disrespectfully of
each other. From what he knew of Mr..
Blaine personally, and particularly as to
his feeling in this matter, he was conf
dent that he would not by word or &C.
| ton oppose Mr.. Belmont's confirmation.

the Chinese by measure or by count.
Everything is bought by weight.
An artist did some quiet marketing IN
order to establish confidential relations
with the proprietor, whose chief charac-
teristic was a perpetual tendency to say
six cent pound to every question that
was asked him. Every n of. his vege-
tables, including a big invoice of sugar
cane from Louisianaand some New York
state apples, was held at that figure. He
weighed everything he sold on a quaint,
old fashioned scale, whose rod was ma
| hogany, very old and much polished by
long friction. The chances are that with
it Moy's ancestors weighed out food to
500 Chow citizens long before the United
| States were heard of. The weight is a
| clumsy hunk of rusty iron, and the di-
visions Of weight are indicated along the
rod by hundreds of fine brass nails, which
are driven so skillfully that the rod is not
cracked anywhere. The vegetables sold
by All Moy attract largecrowds of China

Tho Man of MANY Passes.

Life with the general passenger agent
of arailroad is one continued round of
pleasure. He is about the only official
connected with the management of a
railroad who can travel around the coun-
try without money and without price.
His fat pocketbook contains the magical
open sesame to- all lines of road in the
country, and he also possesses the potent
pasteboard which gives to him the privi-
leges of the sleeping cars and the dining
cars. Wheas the general freight agent
travels he has his annual railroad passes,
but he is obliged to produce to the repre-
~sentatives of the sleeping car companies
and pay the usual tariff for his meals in
the dining cars. A general passenger
agent can start for New York with only
his collection of ANNALS and the price of
two cocktails and return home with the
entire outfit, as some inc will certainly
turn up to purchase his cocktails for
him. To paraphrase the old time chest
nut, the general passenger agent could
go around the world with a paper collar
and a 50 bill and change only the collar.
