MA AND CHARLIE.
A Couple Who Drove Their Male
Auditors Almost Frantic


She was one of the most aggressive
women these broad United States ever
produced, says the New York Tribune.
She bounced on board a Pennsylvania
railroad southbound train at Newark,
and took the car by storm. When she
had planted an unpromising infant in
vacant seat and arranged wilderness
of bundles with appropriate re-
marks, which might have been heard by
the engineer across the tender and four
coaches, she seated herself by the child
and began a continuous and distracting
comment about papa, and grandpa, and
auntie, which made all the passengers
shiver and crane their necks to see
where the conversational blizzard came
from.
"Think you'll know grandma, Char
lie ?" she vivaciously inquired.
"Yep"
"And dear Aunt Fanny?'
"Guess SO. Ma, will Aunt Fanny need
shaving as much as she did last sum-
merp'
"You mustn't say that, Charlie.
Won't you have nice time playing with
little Willie Corrigan next door? ?"
"You bet l will. Ma, has Willie got
that dOrg we used to fool with?"
II expect he has, dear; and Willie is
such a manly little fellow like to have
mammals good little boy with him.
"Ma"
eyes, darling"
Gimme a cake-one of them big /
cakes, MAJ
And when the car reached the Broao
Street station there wasn't man among
the cargo of frantic humanity whose
fingers had not twitched from Newark
to Philadelphia with the longing to hurl
ma and Charlie through the nearest
window, bag, bundles, fy-cakes and all.

La Crescenta.


EDITORS HERALD-The social event of
the week in our place was the ball and
supper given ON Friday night at the
hotel by Mr.. Fraley. One hundred and
forty invitations were sent out, but
owing to the inclemency OF the weather
on that particular evening the attendance
was not so large as it would otherwise
have been. Quite party, however, came
over from La Canada, our sister valley.
Burbank was well represented in the
person of Editor Marshall Of the Times,
who was accompanied by a friend from
Glendale. Glendale was further repre-
sented by Mr.. w. w. Whitney, who has
recently become resident of that place.
Mr.. Ignace Scherb, wife and daughter
were present from West Crescenta.
The dining-room had been prepared for
dancing, with platform at one end for
the musicians, the walls were decorated
with flowers and vines, and the floor
waXed for the occasion.
The dancers 'tripped the light fam
tastic toe" until about midnight, when
supper was served in four adjoining
rooms, where commodious tables were
spread. After supper dancing was con-
tinued until an early hour, the stormy
night obliging those from distance to
remain until daylight, as the mist of the
early evening had developed into
a decided rain, therefore the dancers
decided that jollity should "reign"
(ndoors) and nothing should be
mist" from the occasion that could
afford entertainment, preferring to dance
in comfortable room, rather than to
roam about the hills and valleys, bitches
and dykes, bridges and barancas, in the
darkness which had settled down on
what was supposed to be moonlight
night
Our valley has been visited in the past
week by numbers of real estate seekers,
in fact it seems almost like a return OF
"boom times"
Several parties have been looking at
Gen. Shields's place with view to
buying
DR.. Thompson, of Los Angeles, (who
is now in Honolulu) has recently bought
fifty acres of land in our valley. His
brother, the dentist, will take charge of
it for the present and plant ten acres to
orange trees this spring, the remainder
to be cleared and planted to orange,
olive, fig and other fruit trees.
Mr.. Webb and wife, of Los Angeles,
were guests at the hotel on Sunday,
remaining one night.
Several carriage loads of people also
drove up here on the same day, for
pleasure or profit, Cor both), twelve of
them taking dinner at the hotel.
Mr.. S. Garfield, who has been SO
i'll at DR.. Briggs's house, is now much
improved, and has gone to Pasadena,
where he will remain week or more.

Alhambra and San Gabriel.

EDITORS HERALD-The warm weather
Of the past few days has caused many of
the vineyards in this locality to present
very healthful appearance. No signs
of disease of any kind are noticeable in
the vines that have begun to grow
Many of the largest growers have re-
moved the dead vines and planted cut
tings in their place.
Whether the disease has spent it's
force or whether it will become manifest
as soon as the sprouts become longer
the vineyardists are unable to say, but
feel that the former case is true.
The prospects are that the orange
trees and on the budded varieties, will
be very large. The same may be said
of the peach, apple and prune crop.
The parlors OF the Hotel Alhambra
were well filled last Tuesday evening and
the entertainment given by the Episco-
pal Guild was thoroughly enjoyed. The
following programme called forth much
applause: Piano duet, Misses Fleming
and Walker: vocal solo, Miss Albertson ;
piano solo, Miss Hathaway; piano solo,
Miss Walker; recitation, Mr.. Randolph !;
piano solo, Prof. Berg; reading, Rev.
Trew; piano solo, Miss Walker. After
refreshments and more very enjoyable
music the company dispersed The en-
tertainment enriched the guild by about
500.
The comedy, Engaged, given last Fri
day evening by the Sans Souci Dramatic
Club, was a very successful affair. The
proceeds, which amounted to about $75,
were turned over to the Alhambra I'm
provement Society Following is the
cast: "Cheviot Hill," A. S. Halstead
"Belvawney," A. G. Weeks; "Mr. Sym

herne," Miss Phillips; Minnie Sym
person. Miss Vosburg ''Mrs. Mcfar-
lan," Miss Hathaway Maggie McFar-
lan," Miss Moorehead; Parker" Miss
Brunson
The overture was rendered by Doh's
orchestra. All the actors sustained
their parts well, and were the recipients
of many very beautiful bouquets. Mr.
Halsted acted the part of the loving
cavalier to perfection. The Misses Vos-
burg and Moorehead also deserve
especial mention.
About week ago the residence of Mr..
Page was burned. Very little of the
furniture was saved, owing to the strong
wind that was blowing at the time.
The house was insured for only $400.
Mr.. Richards is building a very nice
two-story residence just below Mr..
Hamilton's place. M.

Novel Way to subdue Dogs.


A gentleman who has had a gooa
deal oiexperience in the management
OF dogs says that the most vicious
brute can be conquered speedily by
any powerful odor, especially a pun
gent odor like ammonia. Ho tells
how he once won II wager ON hand
ling n dog that few persons could APP
proach. 1t was in u little town in
Canada. The conversation being on
the subject of dogs, the proprietor
of the inn where he was stopping
laid IL wager that his visitor could
not put his hands upon u dog chuin-
ed up in the back yard.
'All right" said the visitor, "but
as Il matter of precaution for the
protection OF my hands will go up
stairs aud put on pair Of gloves.
81 put on apair of old buckskin
gloves" says the old gentleman tell
ing the story, ''and saturated tho
right hand with ammonia. We then
went out to the dog, and ut my up.
proach lie rushed from his kennel
with open mouth. AS soon as lie
got within reach l thrust out my
right hand. Instead of biting it lie
turned tail and ran into his kennel.
Then ! went to the kennel, and, put
ting my hand inside, made him come
out again. The secret of the matter
is that II dog can't bite without
drawing in his breath, and us he does
SO he inhales the ammonia, which
partially sutfocates him and .subdues
for The time being his biting pro-
pensity. Some dogs may be sub
iued with cologne. New York

Gunpowder Depot.

Our government is simply provid.

conditions to secure and store sucl,
quantities of nitre, to be used in max.
ing gunpowder, as will render us in.
dependent ofany exigency possible for
human care to tore-stall, like block
ado to our ports. Nine million
pounds have alrerdy been purchas ed
Mt prices ranging from twelve to eight
cents per pound, and hereafter other
millions of pounds will be added to
the tremendous quantity already in
hand.
In the later part of the seventies
the wisdom of provision for some
such great powder and nitre reserve
became SO patent to the authorities
ut Washington that it was decided
one should be established ut or near
the Atlantic seaboard. A site 700
feet above the sen level was at last
selected in the elevated Piccatinuy
valley, lying in the Appalachian
mountain chain in northeastern New
Jersey. One cannot but at the same
time reflect that any foreign enemy
could enter New York harbor practi.

Ballooning as a Sport.


Ballooning should be encouraged
Incarceration. AS there is little bal
looming lonein this country very few
know anything of this charming ex-
perience, and nearly all have I'm ex-
nggerated iden of it's danger. In
Europe, and especially in Paris, free
balloon ascents are quite often made,
and as natural results the French
men make good balloons. Balloon
ing isnot more expensive than yacht
ing, and to my mind it is much more
interesting. Agood silk balloon with
a capacity for two people-say one
holding $4,000 cubic feet of gus
costs in France $500 or 5000. Here
it would cost rather more. The gas
iscleaper there also. but if one has n
good balloon and does his own work
the whole expcnse:ot ballooning here
ought not to average over 500 for
each ascent. With II little previous
study and the practical experience OF
II few trips one Gun manage his own
balloon. Under ordinary circum-
stances two persons make the best
number for an ascent. A balloon
club, having n feet of we'll construct
ed balloons, could have excursions
aud races on the same plan us that
OF yachting and canoeing. 1t is all
art or recreation that has been neg
lected. At all events it has been left
mostly to professionals. who indulge
in its most risky features and given
it the name of being IL very dnnger-
GUS sport, which it need not have
