large majority Of the camping parties
that have left this city during the present
season have gone to the Rubicon Springs
in the Georgetown divide, where the scenery
is grand, trouting excellent and game plenti-
full In speaking of the Rubicon Spring,
the Virginia City Eilterprise says:
" just at present there is rush from all
parts of Nevada to Rubicon Springs. They
must now take the water about as fast as il
makes its appearance. The medicinal
spring at Rubicon is one of the smallest in
the Sierras. Its whole flow is through a
hole in the rock about the size of a lead
pencil. 1t might be bottled as fast as IL
flows. 1t comes up kissing with gases and
is all the stronger for being small in guam
tity. The water is very pleasant TO the
taste, yet it is strongly impregnated with
various kinds of minerals. The man who
drinks the water of this spring soon wants
four square meals day. For some reasons
Californians do not seem to have discov-
cred the virtues of this spring as rejuvena-
tor. While the Rubicon continues to flow
it IS all nonsense for Pacific Coasters TO
cross the ocean in search of water at any OF
the spas

THE LOWELL MURDER CASE.
Some Now Developments In the Case
The Prosecution Closes To-Day.

Some New Developments In the Case
The Prosecution Closes To-Day.
In the Lowell murder case yesterday one
new point came out-Mike Keyser, man
vino had stock pastnring on Lowells
ranch, testified that he met Myers and
Olsen on the ranch on the 10th of March,
and was introduced to them by Lowell.
He talked with them for some time On
the morning after the murder, he arrived
at the ranch with his two daughters young
girls, and found three cows dead and the
fresh ontrails of the calf the defendants say
they killed while hunting for his stock
He found, the old white horse that was shot
by Drager. The two girls were left at
LowelPs cabin for week, while the father
went to Sacramento and back. When
they arrived there the morning after the
murder there was g notice on the door,
stating that Lowell had gone away for two
weeks. The counsel for the defense con-
test every point stubb0rnly, and great
many xctptions have been taken to
the rulings OF the Court. Myers
takes no apparent interest in the case aud
never changes his position. Olsen and
Drager watch everything very closely.
Deputy Sheriff Newbert, of Sacramento,
when on the stand produced and read let
ter written by Myers to his wife, when he
was in the county jail In the letter Myers
tells his wife that they killed Lowell, y
and regrets that he ever met Olsen. The
letter is considered very damaging TO the
defendants.
The afternoon session was taken no with
the reading of the testimony taken in the
case of John Steen while on frial in Sscra
mento for receiving a portion of the prop
erty stolen from Lowell The testimony of
Harry Myers was read by W E. Doane

PRESIDENT CI.EyELAND's message upon
retaliation measures in the Canadian mat
ter was a confession that his fisheries treaty
was failure, and that the administration
had neglected to apply correctives pro-
vided by Congress to grave commercial
wrongs upon American trade over the
Canadian border. But by that confession
the President expected to cover the errors
of the past 10y skillfully touching the
patriotic sentiment Of the people. By
rushing into and through the House bill
restricting Chinese immigration in def
ance of treaty obligations, the President
confessed that his treaty with China was
a failure, and admitted that it would en-
danger his strength upon the Pacific Coast
and among the working classes. The Scott
bill does precisely that which Mr.. Cleve-
land and his Secretary of State have here
tofore protested could not and must not be
done-crosses at right angles solemn com
pact by treaty with foreign power. Mr..
Cleveland has entitled himself to 4 new
cognomen-he will become known as the
great American hedger.

Catarrhal Dangers.

To be freed from the dangers of sutfocation
while lying down; to breath freely, sleep
soundly and undisturbed; to rise refreshed,
head clear, brain active and free from pain or
ache; to know that no poisonous putrid mat
ter defiles the breath and rOts away the deli
cate machinery of smell, taste and hearing; to
feel that the system does not, through its
veins and arteries, suck up the olson that is
sure to undermine and destroy, is indeed a
blessing beyond all other human enjOyments.
To purchase immunity from such a fate should
be the object of all afflicted. But those who
have tried many remedies and physicians de-
spalr of relief or cure.
SANFORD's RADICAL CURE meets every
phase of Catarrh, from simple head cold to
the most loathsome and destructive stages. 1t
is local and constitutional. Instant in reliev
ing, permanent in curing, safe, economical

SANFORD's RADICAL CURE consists of one

OUR CALIFORNIA LETTER.

Bait to Catch Suckers-No Better

Attractlon-A Sug-
.gestion,
SAN DIEGO, CAL, Dec. 30, 1887.
Daily LIGHT.
According to promise | proceed to
write you my first from this far-famed
locality. Since my arrival, some ten
days ago, the weather has been to me a
little unpleasant, quite cool even dur
Ing the day. / have not gone out at
any time without an overooat. One on
first coming takes cold easily, and have
been unable to avoid 1t, try as might.
| also find fir in the room
very comfortable. People that have
been here some time do not suffer from
the chilly atmosphere as new corners do.
On the morning Of December %, 1887,
there was a slight skim Of Ice on water
left standing on the ground, but vegeta-
tlOn did not seem to suffer from IL.
There are now In the yards and gardens
great quantities Of geraniums and other
tender plants In full bloom, and the
birds twitter and sing as lively as in the
springtime. 1t is a great surprise as
well as a disappointment on coming
here to find so few of the fruits and vege-
tables. common to California, growing
here; but that is explained by the fact
that only two years ago the first railroad
got in, and before that fruit growing, not
being at all profitable, little attention
was given to It. have seen some very
fine oranges grown on land near this
place, and learn that grapes In this sea-
son are as fine as any grown anywhere
in the state, so with all the other fruits.
From Cotton, a point 120 miles north Of
here on the Southern Pacific railroad to
this place, you will see the country
staked out into town lots. Every place
claims advantages over every other and
each one spreads itself to catch suckers,
Most men on coming here think real
estate out of all reason, but after little
looking around and talk with the real
estate men they conclude that 1t is really
cheap and pitch in and buy. That the
growth of this place is phenomenal there
Is no question. The east, west, north
and south have paid tribute to Its growth
and prosperity and yet there are but two
things can be c'aimed for it, viz: A fine
bay and harbor and good climate.
Leaving of the bay, San Antonio can
equal this place In all other respects and
discount it in many. There is no pictur-
esque tsmale vendor, neither are there
any outdoor restaurants run as they are
In San Antonio by Aztec senofitas.
Everything goes In rush, and to keep
up with the procession, one must
quicken his pace. Tomorrow there Is
big sale of lots across the bay, on
Coronado heights, little neck of
land running In between the
ocean and bay, ExcursiOnists from
Frisco, Los Angeles, and other POINTS,
are coming in. There will be a big
brass band, free excursion to the place
of sale and fine lunch spread at the Cor
onado hotel. Everything, you see, to
catch the sucker. Can't San Antonio
catch on? Send some OF the committee
Of thirty out TO get pointers. l will try
and give you some Of the methods used
here to boom the town and country In
my next. For the present must close.

THE ELECTION.

How the Matter Is Viewed and
What News Can be Gained of
the Result.
There never was an election in this
city that was viewed SO indifferently by
the citizens as that which is to occur
today and 1t is quite clear that neither
of the candidates meet with general ap-
prevail. Mr.. Newcomb comes forward
as a republican has the endorsement Of
q section Of the party. On the other
hand Mr.. Schafer is before the people as
a simon pure democrat and it Is said
has the tacit endorsement of the
democratic party in the city and
Of the administration. In this
matter honors are easy, for Mr..
Newcomb is apparently obnoxious
to democrats and he has not the solid
garded as mossback, and unless demo-
support OF progressive men. Then again,
Mr.. Schaefer has opposition In the enc
mics OF the administration, who rightly
or wrongly hold that he is the admins
tration candidate, and as such will, on
general principles, vote against him.
Thus 1t will be seen that while the can
didatss have much for them, there Is
considerable against both that may ma
terially affect their chances of success
AS regards the school proposition it is
by no means popular. The idea is that
there Is no real or urgent necessity for
the proposed increase in taxation and
that in these hard times 1t should not be
called for. The probabilities are that
that the proposition will be defeated by
big majority.
