completion of the short piece between
Fulton Wells and Buena Park finishes
the grading between Anaheim and Los
Angeles, since the big cut and the en-
trance into Los Angeles are now COM
pleted. The iron viii be laid at once,
it is said, between here and the county
seat over the new line, and, pending
this, the bridge across the Los Ange-
les river will be built. Within less
than ten days a portion Of the force
Of graders, if not the whole working
force, will be put on the plains east Of
Anaheim, to grade the road between
here and the Orange junction. Lively
times in new railroad building will
be seen here now, and trains will
shortly be running into Anaheim over
this road, and before many moons the
connection through will be made.
Concerning the Anaheim and Ocean
narrow gauge railroad Messrs. Gleason
& Graham, the contractors for about
seven and half miles OF grading on
this road, announced that they would
put, on Monday last, about thirty or
more teams en- the old Shanklin ranch
to work toward the sea at Alamitos
Bay. The ties, together with rails Of
sufficient weight, are guaranteed to be
here in twenty or thirty days, and roll
ing stock, to equip the enterprise, as
soon as needed. The rails to be actu-
ally used will be thirty-five pounds
and the gauge Of the road will be
forty-two inches.-[The New Era.

The Sour Orange.

The traveller in the so-called Para
disc Of Europe, the coast of the Med
iterranean, between Genoa and
Cannes, will be surprised in coming
into the district of Grasse, to see
there in the Fall innumerable clothes
lines hung up, ON which the skins of
oranges are dried, while the pulp of
these fruits is lying in out-of the-way
places, where large piles of tens of
thousands OF oranges will rot for
manure. He hears then that these
are sour oranges. Their skins are
used by more than fifty perfume fac
tories OF Grasse, as we'll as the bios
SONS, of which an Italian proverb
says: "The orange blossom is the
king of all blossoms"
A sour orange tree usually bears
three times as many blossoms as it is
able to bear fruits, and therefore two
thirds of them are picked and sold to
gardeners, druggists and the perfume
factories, who use the blossoms and
then the skins for powders, oils, POM
AIDES, extracts, molasses, liquors, con-
futures, candies, etc.. some of which
products are very valuable. One gal
lon of an oil, for instance (Neroly
bigarrade), is sold for $500. The fac
tories of Grasse consume during the
period of distillation in the month of
May, 30, 900 pounds OF orange blossoms
a day.
AS soon as there will be in Califor-
mia supply of sour orange blossoms
and skins it will not be long before
factories will be erected, because in
America as much, and more, perfumes
and conftures are used than in any
other country.-[Rural Press.

Improved Tin Fruit Cans.

An ingenious improvement in the
manufacture Of tin cans for preserving
food is being introduced, the plan con-
sisting simply of so forming the lid
that is merely pressed on, and the
can is Theoretically sealed, so that no
internal pressure can remove the lid.
Water boiled in tin thus closed has
failed to open it off, although the
steam pressure has burst the can it
self. A penny piece, however, used
as a lever by being placed under a
rim formed around the top of the
cover, with the shoulder of the can as
a fulcrum, raises the lid with a re-
markably small expenditure of power.
The principle involved in the device
is that of the wedge and lever. The
neck of the tin on which the lid fits is
formed at a very slight angle from
the vertical, and the rim of the lid is
made with corresponding angle, no
solder being used to form the joint.
By means of this arrangement, there
fore, the opening of the can is rend-
cred remarkably clean, quick and
simple operation, contrasting greatly
with the inconvenient method now
in vogue.

was much interested in visiting
the brea, Or aspbaltum, concrete pipe
factory Of A. E. White, in the south
part OF Anaheim. 1t seems to me
that it is only question of time when
these pipes will take the place of all
other material, especially near the
foot. hills, for culverts, and carrying
irrigating water. In the foothills
back Of Anaheim is stored immense
quantities of asphaltum. We know
that in has been used on the old
Yorba ranch for sixty years, and
and seems as good as new so
we are warranted in believing
that it will last century. The
keeping in repair Of the wooden cover
ing to our water ways, from irrigating
water, is great bill of expense to the
people, and it seems to me we ought
to demand of our road officials that a
large portion of this expense be
stopped by substituting these inde-
structible asphaltum pipes for the
rapidly rotting wooden coverings.
The first cost OF these pipes is about
one and a half times greater than
wood. This pipe is so hard that one
cannot nick it with an axe, or heavy
hoe, or shovel. Four-inch pipe can
be laid for about twenty or twenty-five
cents a foot; twelve-inch pipe for
about fifty cents a foot, but it will
never have to be done but once

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD |
WASHINGTON, March THE Senate
resumed consideration of the urgent
deficiency bill and provision in
serted by the House requiring the
Public Printer to rigilly enforce the
eight hour law was striken out yeas
32, nays 20.
Payne offered an amendment ap-
propriating $50, 900 for pay OF assistant
custodians and janitors of public
buildings all over the country for the
current, fiscal year and made state
ment in explanation and advocacy OF
it showing the reduction in pay in the
service at the New York
and Cincinnati custom houses
for the lack of appropriations.
This led to general discussion
upon the subject of public buildings,
and Plumb referred especially to the
library building in Washington, re-
garding which there was discussion
between Hill and Voorhees, some days
ago. Another animated debate ensued
over some of the statements made by
Plumb regarding the expenses Of the
"hole in the ground" after which
Payne's amendment was voted on. 1t
was agreed to, yeas "a, nays "a.
On motion of Paddock, the Pension
Bill went over till tomorrow, with the
understanding that after the morning
business it be taken up and discussed
under the five minute rule, and final
vote taken before adjournment.
The Senate then proceeded to exec
utive business, and soon adjourned.

The Purchase of Roads,

The following questions were sub
mitted by the Board of Supervisors to
the District Attorney for his written
opinion: Can the Board of Supervi-
sors acquire land for road purposes
and pay therefor, without first having
viewers appointed and those viewers
report thereon?
And the following is the statement
as presented to the Board.
GENTLEMEN Il know of no law
authorizing the purchase by the Board
of land for road purposes, without
having the land examined by viewers
and report thereon by them filed
with the Board; but where the Board
is satisfied from sufficient evidence
before them, of the real value of land
to be taken for such purposes, the
labor of the viewers appointed by the
Board will be much lessened and the
fees to be paid them for such services
ought to be comparatively light.
Respectfully,
j. X. DUPUY,
District Attorney.

a. w. Clarke to be Taken to
Uvalde County, Texas.
On the Goth day of February, Sher-
iff Kays received q letter from the
sheriff OF Uvalde county, Texas, ask
ing him to locate a man named A. w.
Clarke, who was wanted for murder
at that place. The matter was placed
in the hands Of Detective Emil Harris
and he with the assistance of Deputy
Sheriff Chas. Jennings, succeeded in
locating Clarke on a ranch about
four miles from the city yesterday
evening. The officers returned from
the ranch with Clarke in charge and
gave him lodging in the county Jail.
Clarke, it is stated, admits the killing
Of man in Texas, but says he can
justify himself before a jury. Accord
ing to his story the man he killed
walked up to his wife, and pointing
a loaded pistol toward her, asked her
where her heart was located. Clarke
then shot the man to protect his
wife's life. The requisition papers
are here and the Sheriff of Uvalde
county, Texas, will come for the pris-
oner on to-night's train. Detective
Harris and Deputy Sheriff Johnson
are to be congratulated on their sue

PROHIBITION
Lecture of w. r. Mills at the Fort
street M. f. Church.

Lecture of w. r. Mills at the Fort
street M. E. Church.
On Tuesday evening, w. I. Mills
lectured on prohibition at the Fort
street M. E. church, before large
audience,
The evening was begun by a
song, followed by prayer and then a
second song. Mr.. Mills was intro
duced to the audience by Rev. Can
tine, and said the question he propos-
ed answering in the affirmative was,
"Must we have reorganization OF
the political forces of the Govern
ment ?'' He opened with the ques-
ton of foreign immigration, and gave
it as an argument in his favor. He
compared the Governmental allowed
to drift into the hands of for
eign born men, to ship loaded with
passengers, but with the crew at the
bottom of the sea. The passengers
might be good and serviceable men
in ordinary capacities, but they
could not run a ship because they
knew not the workings of its
machinery, and could not learn in a
day what the crew had required life
time to master. So it was with the
ship Of State, and the immense influx
of foreigners might cause a political
revulsion which would land them in
in the chair of administration.
"And," said the speaker, ri would
not like to be passenger on the ship" "
The late war was his next theme.
The bitterness and sectionalism en-
gendered in slavery days, and which
eliminated in a conflict of arms, was
not yet dead. Mason and Dixon's
simple surveyors line was treasured
in tradition and history, by sickly
sentiment, born of a hatred between
brothers, which could be turned to
love only by destroying the old parties
of the North and South, and unit
ing them in common cause
against common enemy, pro-
hibition against whisky traffic.
The speaker, continuing, spoke Of the
destructive result if the Territories
should be admitted as States under
the present administration. The Ter.
ritories supported themselves, under
the direction of the National Govern
ment, by taxation upon gambling
hells, bawdy houses, saloons and in
stitutions of like character. Place a
pure party in power at Washington
which would alter the system of rev.
enues, and the admission of the Terri
tories is made possible. Otherwise il
was exceedingly dangerous. The
speech was closed with a brief resume
of these separate arguments, and al
earnest appeal to outsiders to come
over into the prohibition field.

HUNTINGToN's PROPOSITION.
The House Committee on Pacific
Railroads this morning received from
G. p. Huntington bill for the refund
ing of the Central Pacific indebted
ness to the Government. 1t provides
that the Court OF Claims shall make
computations for finding the present
worth OF the debt instead of the Sec
retary of the Treasury, as in the
Outhwaite bill, and this court shall
also determine and deduct the equities.
The debt shall be divided into
250 equal instalments, payable
semi-annually, with security in the
shape of 125 year bonds at 2 per cent.
and mortgage. The company may
redeem at any time its bonds by dis
counting them per cent. There is
authorization for refunding the first
mortgage debt by the company, and
the last clause also provides for al
tentative authorization for the Govern
ment to refund said debt by issuing 2
per cent. 50-year bonds, redeemable
by the Central Pacific.

The Census.

The figures of the late census OF the
town of Santa Ana have been revised
and corrected, and now show the bona
fde population to be 4,362. With the
floating or transient population, the
figures would far have exceeded the
5000 souls which it was predicted the
census would show. The census
takers, however, were instructed to
enumerate only those who were bona
fde residents, or declared their inten-
ton to become such. Santa Ana is
destined to become an important
town. There can be no gainsaying
this fact. 1t is growing with wonder
ful rapidity, backed by stretch OF
country that for horticultural aud ag-
ricultural richness cannot be excelled
