The report ot strike of ten barrel stream oi oil near Santa Barbara IS a reminder that California is one of the chief oil-producihg States. The ln' dustry has not attracted much atten- ton yet, California stands third in the list. Ventura, Santa Barbara and Los Angeles counties have several olI- bearing dlSirlctS that have been doing we'll The indications for some dis. tance along the Coast and in several portions of the Coast Range of moun- tains in those counties are considera- ply better than the discoveries have thus far proved. Ii is probable, how ever, that richer wells than any yet opened will be found in the oil dis tlict, and that the extracting and re- lining of oil will become one of. the valuable industries of the Statc.S F.

General Lew Wallace, President of the Board of Visitors of the Military Academy, has q radical scheme for the reorganization of the army, and hy a singular coincidence Henry George proposed almost the same plan in the Standard just before the General s plan came out. General Wallace would abolish the present mode of ap- pointment to cadetships at West polnt and make every body pass through the ranks He would turn every military siation iu the country into a school and every so,diar into a student. Af- ter three or four years he would take the most promising, give them fin Isbing course at West Point and mak c officers oi them, while the rest would be discharged. This would abolisL the present democratic gulf between officers and privates, reduce the temp tationS 10 assertion, induce a better class Of men to enlist and give some thousands of soldiers every year a training that would fit them 10 be of fcers of volunteers in case of war. The idea IS certainly worth the atten. ton of Congress.-S. F. Examiner.

The Indianapolis Journal says: The safety crossings which the Chicago and Eastern Illinois and Big Four have put up al most of their crossing points with ether roads are of great service to them in making schedule time ever the road. There is an ar rangelnent at the crossing by which a target IS thrown acress one road when train approaches on the other When the train gets within LOCO feet of the crossing it opens an eleetrIc cir cult which threws the target, and Il train approaching on the other road can not cross untl the first train IS over the crossing. By the ilse of these safety crossings train can run at as high rate of speed as fl can attain over the crossing without making a stop.

ATTEMPTED RAPE.-This village has
had startling sensation this week to
talk about. As Genie Lamb, girl a.
bout "a years old, who works in the fam
lily of Judge John w. Rowell and who
is highly esteemed by all our towns-peo-
pie, was returning from prayer meeting
sunday evening about s o'clock when
just opposite Judge Rowell's office she
was seized by man who attempted to
carry her back into the lot in the rear of
the Office. He threw one arm round her
neck partially choking her and as she
screamed for help put his free hand over
her mouth. She caught hold of the iron
fence with her left hand and held on
with powerful grip while a desperate
struggle ensued, till Judge Hutchinson
was attracted by the noise and came to
her rescue though little thinking what
the trouble was. The man ran in the di-
rection of the railroad and was lost
sight of and all efforts to discover him
have thus far proved futile. He is said
TO be Of medium size, strong build.
wears heavy moustache, a light derby
hat He evidently little knew the girl
or he would not have attempted any
such foul crime upon her. as he would
nave known that she would prove more
than a match for him. She was quite
badly bruised and scratched in the en-
counter, her gloves and clothes were
torn but otherwise she was unframed.
Every effort has been and is being made
TO catch the villain who attempted such
heinous crime and the officers think
they have good clue to follow.
