We are still shipping potatoes and
vegetables by the train load to points
east of the great divide. Our spuds are
delighting the people of the Texas
plains, as we'll as those of Chicago.
Southern California is the farmers
paradise, and every acre of our rich soil
lying under such smiling and fructify-
ing skies will in the end be worth
$1,000 at least, for the simple reason that
the products OF these acres will pay a
good interest on that price.

AMUSE MENTS.
Elsie Leslie in 1.-The Prince and the
Pauper."

Elsie Leslie in 1.-The Prince and the
Pauper."
An entertainment that will doubtless
prove remarkably popular will be put
upon the stage of the Grand opera house
for four nights and Saturday matinee,
beginning Wednesday, August 9th. 1t
is representation of the chief Incl
dents of Mark Twain's beautiful story
1.-THE Prince and the Pauper." 1t will
introduce in the roles of the Prince
and the Pauper, Elsie Leslie, who
achieved great fame in the eastern cities,
first in the one act piece "Editha' s
Burglar" and later on Little Lord
Fauntleroy." AS play ''The Prince and
the Pauper" has greater dramatic
interest than would be looked
for by those familiar with the
story. 1t is in itself thoroughly in
teresting drama, full Of stirring Incl
dents, and at the same time possessing
type of quiet, refined humor, which
everybody can enjoy. 1t will derive
great advantage from the superb and
liberal manner in which it will be
staged. The Elizabethan era costumes
are said to be handsome, tasteful, costly
and elegant. Elsie Leslie bears the
burden of the play upon her youthful
shoulders, and bears it in the most
artistic, effective and satisfactory
manner.

temptation to decent citizens as we'll as
to the candidates that the state cam

TIRED OF LIFE.
So MIR. George McClosky Ceases to
Breathe.

DIGdCu6.
George McClosky pulled tube out OF
his throat yesterday morning and died.
The tube had been put in to enable him
to breathe taking it out made him I'M
able to perform that act, with the
usual result. Mr.. McClosky was an old
soldier who served in a Pennsylvania
regiment through the war, and had
sought refuge at the Soldiers Home, but
had been in the habit of playing hockey.
He was well acquainted with Mr.. Will
lam Moore.of Washington street, and had
made that gentleman's home his
headquarters for several days. He had
become very Respondent and pulled out
his artificial windpipe with suicidal in
tent and results. Coroner Weldon held
an inquest on the remains last night.

OUR Republican friends are in trouble
They have gone into the bargaining
business so extensively in order to elect
Markham, that they don't clearly see
how they are going to deliver the pro-
missed goods. There will be music in
the air when the congressional conven-
ton meets in Fresno. San Diego be-
lieves that Los Angeles owes her candi-
date sixty-four votes in return for her
unfailing loyalty to Markham. The
" Bayanclimate Republicans placed
their entire delegation at the service
OF Markham's managers to use
as they saw fit, and as Calaveras,
Humboldt, etc., received the whole
siXty-four Los Angeles votes in return
for the respective delegations OF
those counties, each of which had can
didate, the San Diego people do not see
why, in return for their twentyfour
delegates, they, too, should not receive
siXtyfour votes for w. w. Bowers. 1t
is knotty question as it stands, friends
and brethren. We will not undertake
to arbitrate between you but we are
ready to give you a highly moral lecture
on the subject of swapping votes in
political conventions, the essence OF
which is, You oughn't to do it.

OUR fellow townsman, Mr.. H. w. Pat.

fight before the San Jose convention for

The roll call showed that he was backed
by III votes-av Very complimentary sup

been very liberal to this city. We regret
that he tailed to get there.
