In this showing is not included
the numerous smaller industries en-
ploying hundreds of skilled and un-
skilled workmen-the dozen black
smith and wagon shops; cooper
shops, shoemaking and repairing,
harness making, etc, etc.-which
lack of space precludes the possibil'
ity of naming individually.
From correspondence already in
the hands of the board of trade the
probability is apparent that within
the year there will be established
here n furniture factory, paper
mill, oatmeal mill, tannery, a
creamery, cheese factory and several
other leading industries which will
add materially to the wealth and Ia
Dor hiring capacity Of the city.
There never has existed so cheer

who comes in early and goes forward
with the movement of success which

A LESSON FOR A LAWYER,
Coat of Tar and Feathers Given &
California Pettsfogger.

BAKERSFIELD, CAL, Oct 2-Early yesterday
morning ten masked and armed men appeared
mt the door Of the coupt house and demanded
the keys Of the jailer. They said they wanted
Jas. Harrington, to whom they proposed to
give lesson. As the jailer was not inclined
o conform to their wishes they seized him,
ook ais keys and put him under guard. They
hen proceeded to the sheriff's room and also
captured him. Next they opened the Jail and
took Harrington from his cell He resisted
desperately and the men gagged him, put him
in q wagon and conveyed him to lonely
place four or five blocks away, stripped him
and applied a coat Of tar and feathers. Her
rington was then set at liberty, and he disap-
peared.
Several hours later the sheriff found Her
rington's clothing and brought it to the Jail
There was bullet hole in his shirt and some
blood stains on il. While the struggle was go
ing on in the Jail shot was fred, but it was
probably accidental. Harrington has been
known in the neighborhood nearly three years
as pettifogging lawyer, whose principal busi-
ness was the promotion of land contests and
thereby obtaining money from the trouble he
caused among the settlers.
The occasion of his being in Jail was charge
of perjury preferred against him by a settler
whom he had engaged in a contest He had
been arrested at Paso the preceding day and
was lodged in q cell only few minutes before
tho arrival of the vigilantes.
Some uneasiness was felt as to his fate until
n dispatch was received last evening stating
that he was at Tuare City. 1t is probable that
after he was set at liberty he went to his home
at Paso

Second. The general physical competency of

tends to only the fourth of these, but
there is now no doubt that in all places whore

The importance of the test Of reputation is

Protecting the Cars Person.

LONDON, Oct. 2-The reported attempt to
wreck a train supposed to be conveying the
car from st. Petersburg to Warsaw has not
created surprise in St. Petersburg. The car
himself has for some time been aware that the
nihiIist conspirators were again active. and dur
ing the recent maneuvers in southwestern
Russia he personally directed that no person
should be permitted to enter Royno. where he
made his headquarters. without special per-
NIT from tho chief of police OF Rovno. This
precautiou, then regarded as extraordinary, APP
pears now to have been well grounded. The
renewed persecution Of the Hebrews is held re-
sponsible in some quarters for the attempt on
the czar's life, and this allegation will doubt
less be seized upon as pretext for still further
harshness toward this prescribed people.
