A Water suit at Riverside.

The Jurupa Land and Water Company
threaten to bring suit for the whole water
supply of Riverside. The Jurupa Com
pany claims title through the Stearns
Ranch Company. 1t is reported that a
suit was begun some years ago, and that
the Riverside people confessei judgment
at that time. 1t is also claimed that the
claim rests on the same principles as that
of Haggin VS.. Carr, and that the judg-
ment of the Supreme Court in that case
virtually decides this in favor of the
Jurupa people. The amount of water
involved is 1000 inches, of which, under
the statutes of the State, Riverside could
not now be deprived. But if the suit
goes adverse to that place, the property
holders would be obliged to pay the Ju-
rupa people for the water.

Yesterday's Happenings by the Sea
Loves Labor Lost.

An amusing scene was enacted on the
bridge last night. One of the employees
of the Arcadia, named Oscar, became in
fatuated with young lady resident on
the beach, and addressed letter to her
asking for rendezvous. She showed it
to her brother, and he got her to answer
it, making an appointment on the bridge
at 10 p. m. Then he told all his friends,
and they made up little scheme which
resulted in their being present, about
forty strong, beneath the bridge, at the
time named. The love-sick swain could
be heard over head, and then the boys
struck up in strong chorus the refrain,
"Pm Waiting My Darling for Thee"
Oscar realized the situation and hastily
fled, and has not been seen today, being
evidently afraid to face the chatting he
is to get.
The tennis courts at the Casino being
in such condition that play in them is
impossible, it has been decided to raise
by subscription the $3.50 necessary to put
them in repair. Then arrangements will
be made for the annual tournament.
The beachites were entertained today
by Mr.. H.. G. Beville swimming his
thoroughbred horse Almont far out to
sea. The animal swims like fish, and
is not a. all afraid of the breakers. AL
mont is full brother to Daisy F., who
has made such good turf record.
The tide last night was, according to
the calendar, the heaviest of the year,
and as it was expected that the wash
would be very high, a number of persons
congregated on the pier to see the waters
come in. There was nothing unusual,
| however.
A large cable.stand has been placed in
position on the pier, in preparation for
the slide for life which is to given on
Sunday from the bluff. There will also
be trapeze performances and tight-rope
walking, free of charge, on North Beach.
A scratch game at polo was played at
the Southern California grounds this
afternoon, and was witnessed by a goodly
attendance.
The furniture for the fire-house arrived
today, and the quarters will soon be
ready for use.

RedOndO Notes.

The Board of Supervisors, when they
visited Redondo the other day, decided
to have a Jail established there. There
is Justice of the Peace, and it will be
cheaper and expedite the administra-
ton of justice to have Jail at the
Beach.
The Redondo Company also desire to
extend their wharf facilities, and the
Supervisors looked over that matter too,
in order to be able to act intelligently
when it comes before them.

MouNTING AN ENGRAVING.

Take the size of the engraving and
make wooden frame with laths two
inches longer in every way, inside measure.
Wet some strong calico; its threads may
be coarse with advantage, but they must
be evenly woven. While the calico is
wet, nail it down on the frame, stretch
ing it to its fullest extent. Let it dry,
and should it then crease or wrinkle, take
out the nails at those places, and pull it
tightly. Boil over the fire the ordinary
glue size, mix this with q little water;
when this is in liquid state, strain
through coarse muslin and put it on as a
coating all over the calico, make some
paste free from Jumps, and boil up with
it some of the clear size; paste the back
on the engraving with this, and lay it on
the mount, being careful to avoid all
ereases. Let the engraving thoroughly
dry, then make some more clear size, and
put two coats of it over the engraving,
allowing the first to thoroughly dry be-
fore putting on the second. Paint the
engraving with rather dry oil paints, and
thin them with turpentine. The two
coats of size applied ought to prevent the
oil in the paints spreading over the paper;
if however, the oil should spread, third
coat of size will be necessary. Paint the
engraving in the frame, and then stretch
it.-Yankee Blade.

RECOGNITION in Birds.

Mr.. W. J. Stillman, writing to Mature
from Canea, Crete, records curious in
stance of instinct in birds, which is by no
means singular. A gardener living in
zukaleria, three miles from Canea,
caught young but fully fedged sparrow
in his garden, which he brought to the
house of friend, with whom MIR. Still
man and his family are staying in Canea.
He presented the bird to one of the chill
dren in the house, it was put in a cage
and hung in the window, and after few
hours it lost its fright and became placid.
It was early in the morning when it was
caught, and late in the afternoon an old
bird was noticed futtering about the
cage, while the young one was making
frantic efforts to get out to the old one.
It was evidently the mother of the
young bird. as the recognition was too
cordial to have been owing to the in
terest of strange bird. On the cage
being opened they both flew off rapidly
In the direction of zulakeria, from which
the old bird must have traced its nest
ling by some instinct as it is impossible
she had followed the gardener, or she
would have been observed earlier in the
day.

HARDNESS AND EGG PRODUCTION.

In selecting a breed, but few seem to
consider hardness. The object is usu-
ally to secure "the best laying breed, !"
without regard to conditions. 1t may be
that the best laying breed may fail en-
tirely, owing to slight fault in the con-
struction of the poultry-house, and it
may happen that some despised breed,
known to be better adapted for market
than for eggs, may be profitable egg
producers when other breeds fail. Dis
ease is one of the great drawbacks to the
poultry business, and the breed that is
hardy, and seems to endure the climate
well, is the one that will lay the greater
number of eggs and yield the larger
profit. But these conditions vary accord
ing to the location. A breed may be
hardy in one section and not in another.
It may also stand close confinement well
on light, sandy soil and be attacked by
disease on heavy, clay soil. In fact, so
many factors enter into the keeping of
poultry, and are to be considered, that
no two sections are subject to the same
natural laws. The first essential in a
breed is hardness. A strong, healthy
fowl is worth a whole flock of birds that
are always droopy o. non-productive, no
matter what the breed may be, and it is
important that, when making selection,
the hardness of the breed be carefully
considered.

HANDLING GRAIN UNBOUND.

I have handled grain loose. and will
tell what I know about it, says an Idaho
farmer. In the first place, grain can be
put up loose as cheaply as bound, even II
the twine were furnished free. We cut
our grain with side delivery; self rake
machine. We use wooden barley forks
for loading, and basket rack for haul
ing. Two men drive the team and wagon
down through the field and take about
eight rows at time, throwing the gavels
in the rack. We start the rick about ten
or twelve feet square, build it up to the
square and then start another bent be-
hind that, topping out the first from the
second, and continue, making the rick as
long as you like it. Stacking in this way
makes it handy to pitch to the thresher.
In threshing, larger table than ordina-
rily is used, and table tender stands in
the place of the band cutter. With a
short, blunt tinted fork he passes the
loose grain to the feeder. No more men
are needed on the stack than when the
grain is bound, and we feed it to the ma
chine Just as fast. We handle wheat and
oats in this way, but for barley we use a
header. The barley forks we use havea
hapdle about as long as common fork,
and wooden tines, slightly crooked, about
two and half feet long.

Tin Mines Of the Black Hills.

The tin in its raw state is black. and
Is called black cassiterite. This black
tin is imbedded in gigantic rock or mica
schist. It also appears in crystals some.
times, and frequently is distributed
through the rock in such small particles
as to be mere black specks, almost i'm.
perceptible to the naked eye. The whole
country in which tin is found is vol.
canic. The earth is broken and thrown
up by pressure from underneath. Ages
ago it was a seething cauldron. The
mountain of Harney's Peak does not it.
self contain tin, but nearly every hill
around it for miles and miles is filled with
the precious metal. The black Jumps were
the terror of the miners when they sought
for the gold sparsely scattered through
that region, and they cursed the "iron, I"
as they called it; but now they are
searching for the very Jumps which they
once cast away as worthless. There are
mica beds, but the black iron so impreg.
mated them that they were thought to be
worthless; now the more iron in the
mica the better.
The most careful estimates show the
Black Hills tin to be very valuable, and
equal in quality to the best tin OF
Europe. If all the rock is taken and
broken at the mill the yield in percent
age is low; but if the rock is picked, as
it usually is, it is very high. Hand
samples for exhibition contain twenty
five and even fifty per cent. of black
tin.-Ne,o York Tribune.

How the COreans Mourn.

The Coreans 60 into very extensive
mourning for their friends. They hide
their faces from the public gaze and dress
in sackcloth.. Their mourning costume
is not at all picturesque, but it is curious.
The hat, stiff with starch, is of coarse
hemp cloth and resembles somewhat an
inverted bowl or old-fashioned soup
tureen. Under the hat is worn head
band and cap. The hat, the cap and
the head band are worn together the day
of the death, at the funeral and at the
expiration of the first and second years
of mourning. At other times during the
mourning period the head band alone is
worn. The mourning robe is made of a
coarse hemp cloth similar to that of which
the hat and screen are made, but with ex-
tremely large meshes. The back is a
wide straight piece, two cores extend
from the armpits down and the front is a
straight piece and gore. 1t has roll
ing collar three feet long and sleeves
eighteen inches wide, cut square. The
The robes are of yellowish-brown and
white in color, and at the bottom they
measure nine and one-half feet in circum-
ference. Over this is worn a robe Of
finer quality and slashed up at the sides.
The sleeves are wider also. After the
death of father girdle of hemp rope is
worn. If it is mother that is dead q
hemp cloth sash is worn. A variety of
hats are worn for mourning. A screen
hemp cloth is always held in front Of the
face by a mourner. 1t is considered a
great offense to look into the face Of a
mourner. Before missionaries were per-
mitted in Corea they used to steal into
the country by Disgusting themselves as
mourners.- Washington Star. 3,

Lightning Melts a Girls Hat Rim.

J.C. Abernathy, who resides several
miles east of Dennison, Texas, had a
thrilling experience at his house on a re.
cent night during a severe storm. "There
are three cedar trees growing in the front
yard near the house," he says. ''The
largest of the three was struck by light
ming, when ball of fire seemed to dance
before the window. The lightning went
from the top of the roof and ripped up
the shingles. 1t then descended to the
ceiling in the front room and tore the
clock into pieces. Standing near the
clock was a sewing machine. The light
ming melted the large wheel, and after
this performance it melted the metallic
rim which encircled a girls hat. The
fluid then went through the floor, burn
ing a large hole. Mrs. Sheriff., who was
sitting in another room, was prostrated
