In number, cost and substantial char
acter, we believe that Ontario's build
ings for 1888 compare favorably with
those built in any city in Southern Cali
fornia during that time. 1t has been a
comparatively quiet year, but place
that spends over $2500O0 per annum in
substantial building improvements, will
do to tie to.
During the year 1888 there were issued
at the postoffice in Ontario l ,442 money
orders and postal notes for the gross
amount of SIS. 5.169 S3, an increase over
1887 of $31S.S3. The number presented
for payment was 29O, calling for SO, ,776.22,
an increase over the previous year of
$2,515.72. The stamps sold came to

ONTARIO ENTERPRISE.
The Progress Of q Semi
Tropic Town.
GREAT GROWTH OF A YEAR.
A Foothill Fruit Colony and its
Prosperity Under Genial Suns
On Fertile Soils.

The Ontario Record of January 10th,
1888, comes to hand packed full Of excel
lent matter on the prosperity and growth
of that place. Here follows brief con.
densation of it's contents:
Ontario comprises IL, 900 acres of mesa
land, lying between the base OF the
Sierra Madre mountains and the banks OF
the Santa Ana river. The exposure is q
southerly one. titles just on the bound
ary between Los Angeles and San Ber'
nardino counties. The colony is nine
miles from the river to the sea, ana
varies in width from one to three miles.
At the base of the mountains the altitude
ia 1900 feet above sea level. In the
center of the colony Euclid avenue, 200
feet wide, runs from the river to the
mountains. 1t is aligned by fine rows OF
trees. and there is street car running
along it's center. The Southern Pacific
and the Santa Fe railroads both
pass through Ontario. The town
is 3S miles from Los Angeles and 20 from
San Bernardino. Three trains daily by
each line connect Ontario with the me-
tropolis of South California. The Chino
Marrow Gauge begins at Ontario and runs
across the Chino ranch to the town OF
Chino. This road will some day be car
ried over La Habra hills and via Ana
helm to tide-water at some point.
There is in the neighborhood OF 5000
acres in Ontario of arabic land. Of this
nearly 2 900 acres are under cultivation.
Get to variety of fruit trees and vines;
there are about 800 acres in oranges and
lemons 700 acres in deciduous fruits and
from 800 to 400 acres in grapes, mostly
raisin grapes. Last year the colony mar
keted $500 boxes of raisins, and this
year the crop will aggregate 10, 900 boxes.
The development Of Ontario is a mar
vel. Founded in 1888, the growth was
slow until 1886. The following state
ments of the school census report speak
for themselves:

Indians Who We're Cannibals.

During the siege of Detroit several
murders and massacres were perpe-
trated, and one English woman, who
lived with her two sons on the COM
mons, was mastered and eaten-made
into a soup. Shells were fired at the
Indians from the fort, but the cunning
savages soon learned to run toward
them when they were coming and
blow out the fuse, and SO prevent their
exploding. But few of us nowadays
would suppose that the Indians ever
had been cannibals, but we are posi-
lively informed in letters written from
the Detroit post that in several in
stances Pontiac's braves ate their pris-
oners, dished up in various forms. In
letter dated July 8, 1853, the writer
says:
