The commission that has been inquiring in
to the effect of electricity on the human body
with view to determining whether it can
be safely employed as death agent in capt.
tai cases, have been furnished accidentally
with very important piece of evidence.
The other day Niagara Falls hotel clerk
was shocked" by an electric light wire and
nearly killed. His hair was burned of, his
hands blistered and his consciousness tenn
porarily removed. Yet his testimony Is that
he suffered no pain and was not conscious OF
any injury. This evidence would seem to
pretty thoroughly dispose of the allegation
that death by electricity is likely to be pain
full and cruel.

be that neither assumption is the correct

the city voted over five to one for the Nor

by the Lakes of Killarney, one morning In May,
On my pipe OF green holly warbed away,
While blackblrd, high up on the arbutus Tree
Gave back my gay music with gushes OF gee.
When my Ell een's voice stole
From the thicket of holly,
And turned Just the whole
OF our fiuting to folly.
And softly along
Through the myrtle and heather
The maid and her song
Swept upon us together.
Twas an old Irish tale, full of passionate trust.
OF two faithful lovers long laid in the dust
And ner eyes, as she sang, looked so far, far
away,
She went by me, nor knew she went by. where I
lay.
And myself and the grass,
And the deeshy red daisies
Should let our dear pass,
Only whispering her praises
I'll the lass and her lay
Through the myrtle and heather
Like dream died away
Ger the mountain together.

All the means that were employed to in
duce the Sioux to part with their reservation
we shall probably never know. That they
were not anxious to sell at any price, and
that they at first refused to dispose of it at
the price the government offered is we'll
known. What the arguments were that
caused them to change their minds we can
not surely state. But there are rumors
that it was represented to them that If they
did not sell their lands they would be taken
by force; that the United States had the
right to take them, and would inevitably ex-
ercise it. There is no evidence that the CON-
mission employed this argument. Probably
1t did not. But that 1t got to their ears un-
officially and made very strong impression

that the judge was fully convinced of her
guilt. As the hanging of woman is as dis
tasteful to Engllshmen as to Americans, it Is

BROWNS WATCH.
How IL Cost Fellow Oni!
8H5.5OC.

SI5,5OO.
J. T. Brown is a gentleman from
Georgia. He has long been highly
respectable citizen OF the Angelic City.
His nice home on Washington street.
between Cherry and Oak, is well known
to certain kindred spirits.
Brown has watch. 1t is fine one,
He has worn it here for great many
years, and daily he goes to the chon-
ometer in popular jewelers. store and
compares the watch with the regulator
The pocket piece, which is OF gold, with
a hunting case, has never been known to
vary the smallest part of a second.
Indeed there is a popular impress
sion about, among Browns friends,
that the angels who wind up the
sun take surreptitious glance at the
watch every morning to see if the king
of day is prompt in his appearance over
the eastern hills.
Be that story as it may, there is no
question that Browns watch has his
tory, and most interesting one. Twenty
years or more ago the watch belonged to
Ben Mckinley, of the famous Cracker
State. Ben of course was a politician,
and he was also character. He once
upon a time owed friend the snug sum
of $15,500. The only thing of a substan-
tial nature put up as "klateral" for the
sum due was Browns watch
that is, the watch that now
is Browns. Nc had the money,
enjoyed it in some way or other, and
left his friend the watch. 1t is good
one, but rather dear at that price.
The new owner on memorable occa-
sion was hard pressed for money, and
not particular what rate of interest he
paid for the accommodation, so he
Soaked" the timepiece for $3.50. That
to be sure was only small percentage of
the $15,500. The watch was as cheap at
$3.50 as it had been dear at SIS, 500. But
it lay long in the window of the common
uncle of the community, until friend
purchased it and presented it to Mr.. J.
I. Brown, who would not take ranch
for it.

THE CITY HALL TOWER.
Reports of the Architects After
Careful Examination

Careful EXamlmatAOh'
Architects Morgan and Preston, who
were appointed as experts to examine
the City Hall tower, have filed another
report on the matter, setting forth that
during a period OF six weeks they have
made several careful examinations OF the
tower and have delayed their report IN
order that they might judge OF certain
settlements that have taken place IN the
tower. and to note the effect OF the
weight added thereon from day to day.
They assume that the greater part OF TINS
settlement was caused by the too rapid
erection of the tower as laid up with lime
mortar and the slow settling OF the same;
This settlement has caused several small
small cracks on the interior OF the tower,
which. in their opinion, do not materially
affect the stability of the structure, and
are such as might be expected under the
circumstances. The corner pieces OF the
tower, which are its principal supports,
were found sound and free from defects.
If all the work had been laid up In
cement mortar, more time taken and
closer supervision Of the work
been made, no trouble would have
arisen, In structure of this
character with SO many different mater
ials used, and a lack of homogeneity,
both in size and kind, the stability OF the
structure is largely effected by the intel
ligent supervision of their putting to-
gether, and nothing but the utmost care
can bring successful issue to an under
taking of this kind. They recommend
the carrying out OF the reductions and
notifications as formerly suggested by
them, including the reduction in the
cornice, frieze and clock story, and the
removal of all the defective terra Gotta
caps, bases and stills, and other defective
work on mullions, and careful replacing
with sound materials. This being prop
erly done, they see no reason why the
work in the tower may not be brought to
a successful termination.

A NEW INDUSTRY.
East SAN Gabriel to Have a Wagon
Factory.

ERCt0rYs
Mr.. H. G. Fish, of the great wagon
firm at Racine, Wisconsin, is now paying
q visit to the Semi-Tropics. 1t is we'll
known that the East San Gabriel Land
Company has for long time possessed
a contract signed by the Fish Brothers,
by which these gentlemen are bound to
erect and operate a wagon factory at
East San Gabriel. No one need by told
how large a number of wagons, carri-
ages, buggies, and in fact, vehicles of all
sorts is used in South California. Those
now sold here are all made at distance
from this place. Vehicles are found in
the warehouses here from South Bend,
from Racine, from Kenosha and many
other points, even more remote than
these. Others come from San Francisco,
and actually there is a wagon factory at
Oceanside, near San Diego, from which
wagons are sold in Los Angeles.
1t is patent matter that raw material
is much more cheaply shipped long dis
tances than made-up stuff. Hardwood
lum Der can be carried around Cape Horn
at a mere nominal expense, whereas to
ship a carriage all made up across the
continent by rail adds not less than $25
to its cost.
Here is the great advantage a factory
in this section would enjoy, and it is the
knowledge of these facts that induces the
Fish Brothers to lay down branch plant
at East San Gabriel.
A HERALD man tried yesterday to see
Mr.. Fish, but failed. He was, however,
assured by Mr.. A. L. Burbank, of the
East San Gabriel Land Company, that
Mr.. Fish is here in the interest of his
project, and that the prospects are very
favorable for setting the works in motion
at an early day. Mr.. Burbank got the
big furniture factory agoing at Burbank,
and he will not fail in the new scheme.

THE GRAIN CROPS.
Large Servings fn the Lower Enc
of the County.

Large SewinEs I'm the Lower END
of the County.
The San Joaquin ranch, in the ex
treme southeastern end of the county
has never been much used for grain
growing. 1T has been pasture for sheer
and cattle. The most barley heretofore
sowed on the ranch has been about l ,00C
acres. This year there are 5000 acres ol
barley on the ranch. That is q large
ratio of increase.
Between the San Joaquin ranch and
the Santa River lies the Santiago de
Santa ranch. This is mostly de-
voted to other uses than grain
growing. The towns of Santa Ana,
Tustin and Orange occupy a good
deal of this area. Much OF the remain
der is devoted to fruit culture of various
sorts, and large slice of the territory
around Fruitland, Fairview and New
port is used for pasture and alfalfa fields.

ested in that district, that there are
