Sugar Cane from the Seed.

Those who are interested will gladly
learn that the sugar cane seeds sent to
the Trinidad botanical gardens from Bar
bados came up in fourteen days after plant
ing. The same result followed at Demera.

this last colony they nave done even
better. Mr.. lehman has there secured
seeds which he planted, and which have
likewise come up.
As 'toNthe canes grown from the seeds
and Of which MesSrs. Harrison & Bovell
had sent samples to the various colonies,
they offer characteristics that promise much

length of their joints, of which some exceed

possessed such quality that it was named

The best of those arrived at maturity

A PECULIAR ACCIDENT.
Two Flat Cars and an Engine Damaged
at Southside

A very singular accident took place on
the Southern Pacific line near Southside,
yesterday which resulted in the wreck of
an engine and couple of flat cars. A
construction train was at work on the side
of the mountain where the grade is
steep. Two of the fiat cars at the end of
the train became uncoupled and started
down the grade. This was noticed by a
couple of brakemen, who jumped on
board and endeavored to stop them but
without avail. An engine and two cars
lay some distance down the track, and
the engineer seeing the two wild cars
bearing down upon him, started up to get
out of the way. There was an exciting
chase for some distance, which finally
terminated in the cars crashing into the
engine. The two cars which the engine
had been pushing out of the way, broke
loose, and were not stopped until they
reached Lang's.
The special car containing George G..
Magoun, director of the Santa Fe, J. W..
Reinhart, vice-president of that road,
and Thomas Barring, of the London firm
of bankers, will leave San Diego this
evening. The party is accompanied by
General Manager Wade. They will ar
rive in this city Saturday evening.
1t is stated that President Marvel has
reduced the pay roll of the Santa Fe
$500,00o.

DIED FROM LOCKJAW.
The Result of a Game of Ball for the
Orphans.

After very short illness, Deputy
Constable w. J. Boland died of lockiaw,
at his sisters residence, No. 613 Banning
lat 25 o'clock yesterday morning,
1t will be remembered that Boland
while playing with the constables
against the police in the ball game on
March 30th, for the benefit of the or
phans, fell while running to third base
and broke his thumb. The injured
member was set and appeared to be pro-
crossing rapidly, but on Monday morn
ing last Boland was unable to swallow
anything, and his under jaw became
immovable; the muscles at the back
having swelled and refused to perform
their duties. This did not, however. an
pear to trouble Boland much, for he was
up and about all day, and in the evening
attended the A. o. U. w. ball at the
Illinois hall, and took an act
i've part in the affair. On Tuesday
morning, however, he was unable
to move and he rapidly grew worse,
until yesterday morning, when he eX-
pired. He leaves widow and one child,
a daughter, to mourn his loss
The deceased was well known in the
city, having been connected with the
police department and detective force a
long time. He proved himself to be q
faithful officer, and man of generous
impulses, always being ready to assist Il
friend, or to lend his aid in any chari-
table object, and when it is taken into
consideration that his death originated
from injuries received while working in
the interests of noble cause. it is
greatly to be deplored and the wife and
child who survive him, and who are not
only deprived of husband and father,
but left with scarcely dollar in the
world, have the sympathy of the entire
community. The funeral will take place
next Sunday afternoon, due notice of
which will be given hereafter.
The following has been handed in by
one OF the friends of the deceased:
In MemOriam.
Faith! Hope Charity! and the great
est of these is charity.
In the interest of sweet charity he re-
ceived the wound which eventually
caused his death. His uncomplaining
cheerful assumption during his sickness
that lit was all right anyhow" proves
him to have been one of those heroes of
which the world never hears until such
time as moral courage has been called
for and is necessary to evidence the fact
that we are doubly armed when in the
right. His family are left needy, and
such devotion did he have for them that
they were foremost in his thoughts on
his death bed. Honor him, and remem-
Der that in the language that controls
the language of the earth, there are no
greater words than these "What
greater love can man show than that
he giveth his life for friend" We are
all friends of charity. "And the greatest
of these is charity

Rasshi,s Modest start.

John Russhi began his career as a wait
err ten years ago in Delmonico's. In a
year he managed to save $500. Among
the guests he was accustomed to wait
upon was Russell Sage. One day after
Mr.. Sage had finished an unusually
hearty meal he became quite talkative.
Russhi mentioned that he had saved
$500, and tinidly asked if Mr.. Sage
could suggest a good way to invest it.
The financier thought a while, and
taking a small piece Of paper from his
pocket wrote the name of a certain stock
upon it. Russhi's $500 soon grew to
$1,000, and SO on. He still works as a
waiter. and it is safe to say that none Of
the people who order him about is
aware thatbe possesses 50 much monev.
