THE ORANGE CROP.
Estimates of Its Size-COmparis on
With Last Year.

Estimates of It's StZe-COmparis on
With Last Year.
An Associated Press correspondent at
Pomona in a recent dispatch, estimates
the orange crop of Southern California at
$3.50 carloads, which is zoos, 200 boxes.
The local dealers assert that this esti-
mate is ridiculously high. Eugene
German estimates the crop at 1900
carloads, and J. E. Cook of Cook & Lang
ley, puts it at the conservative figure OF
1,700 carloads or $4,000 boxes. These
gentlemen have made pretty thorough
canvass of the ground and claim that il
is not possible they should be very far
Oft the mark.
The crop last year was 200 carloads
or $4,000 boxes. The shortage this
year is due to the failure, through scale,
of the Seeding crop of Los Angeles
county. The rescue effected by the
vedolia cardinals did not come soon
enough to save the crop of this year, but
the good results of it's work will show
themselves twelve months from now.
The chances are that the crop of next
year, owing to the increase of acreage
and absolute freedom from scale, will be
as much over that of last year ss that
was over any crop that preceded it.
The prices to producers this year have
been, as rule, about ten per cent. larger
than those of last year. This is partly
due to the fact that the Florida crop is
only about two-thirds of it's usual size.
There is large Mediterranean crop, and
Tor the first time the importation of
Mexican oranges has affected the mar
ket. These have usually been shipped
in crates, and have been of such inferior
quality as to necessarily be left out of all
calculation on prices.
1t Is stated by the dealers that the re.
cent storms have in no wise affected the
size OF the crop, as the fruit was too far
advanced to be injured by cold weather
or rain. The fact that the wind brings
down number of oranges, does not OF
!tself affect the crop as q whole, for the
fruit which remains on the tree is usually
better and larger by reason of the loss Of
the wind-falls.
Mr.. J. E. Cook, who has re-
Gently returned from trip through the
East, says that the position occupied by
California fruits in the markets of the
Eastern cities has improved greatly in
the last few years, and the outlook is one
which is thoroughly gratifying both to
producer and shipper.

EDITORS HERALD Having noticed III
your issue of yesterday, an article
wherein it states that the cement pipes
have burst at the corner of San Pedro
and Second streets, and, as our firm has
laid several such pipe lines in that
vicinity and all are found in good shape,
would you be kind enough to make a
correction in justice to our business.
inasmuch as we find that the so-called
trouble occurred by the water flowing
from a manhole, constructed in the
brick conduit located at the above
mentioned point. Very respectfully,

Death of Mrs. Register,

About 1915 o'clock this morning the
wife of Mr.. H. g. Register, the President
of the West End Board of Trade, died at
the family residence, No. 1910 Temple
street, after short illness. She had
been confined to her bed for several days
past with bronchial trouble, but until
last night DIR. Orme, who had been at.
tending the sick lady, did not anticipate
any immediate danger, and her death
came as sad blow to her husband and
family, whose many friends and &C.
quaintances will regret to learn of their
sad bereavement.

THE EMPHATIC GIRL.

A Woman That Only Determined ran

She was an auburn-tinted girl with
large glittering eyes, massive shoulders
and determined lips. Had it not been
for an expression of fierceness sha would
have been beautiful After she had
taken her seat she glared at the IittIe
machine attached to the scat in front Of
her, in which is held pair of opera
glasses, that may be secured for use by
the agency of twenty-five cent piora
dropped into the slot. After consider
able trouble with her pocket the fierSe
girl managed to fish out her purse, ami
by paving around in it for moment

toward the machine. The thing failed

Then she began to pull at Il, talking

The usher pulled at the box and shook
his head when it failed to respond.
Then followed aremarkable scene. The
usher was in despair when the girl, after
terrible TRADE, sprang from her chair
with the declaration that she would
speak to the manager and have her
rights. AS she stepped into the aisle a.
bright silver piece rolled from her dress
to the floor. The usher stopped and

The girl scoffed ct the idea that she
had not put any money into the box he

HABITS or THE WASP.
How They Provide Weil-stoeked- Lardel
For Their Young.

How They Provide u eil-Stoeked- Larder
For Their Young.
The subterfuges resorted to by ami
mails in search of food have been re-
garded by the general reader as the most
interesting and instructive portion of
the works of naturalists. An incident
illustrative of the cunning OF the wasp
was recently related to us by an observ-
ing gentleman.
A blue wasp, known as the solitary
wasp because it lives alone in its little
clay nest, was seen to hurl itself upon
the strong, wheel-shaped web of q
large spider. Here 1t set up loud buzz
zing, like that Of fly when accident
ally entangled in q similar web. The
spider, watching at the door of his silken
domicile, stole cautiously forth. His
advance was slow, for he evidently felt
that he was approaching no common
enemy. The apparently desperate yet
Ruthless efforts Of the wasp to free him
self encouraged the spider and 1ured
him forward. But when within some
three inches of his intended victim, the
wasp suddenly freed himself from his
mock ENHANCEMENT, and darting upon
the poor spider, in q moment as It were,
pierced him with his deadly sting in q
hundred places. The wasp then bore
his ill-gotten spoil to his lonely home.
This home is built of clay, thimble-
shaped, and originally containing but
one apartment In the lower part OF
this cul-de-sac the wasp deposits its eggs.
Immediately over them il draws thin,
glutinous curtain. Upon this curtain IT
packs away the proceeds Of its hunting
excursions, such as spiders, flies and all
other insects which it regards as suita-
BILE food for its young, Consequently,
when the young escape from the ova,
they find above them q well-stocked
larder, and gradually eat their way
through the choice depository, finally
appearing to the delighted world in the
agreeable form and stature Of perfect
wasps. N Y. Ledger.

1t Has Been Six Months Under Construc
ton and Is a Sight.
The large engine which has been un-
der construction at the Fishkill Land
ing machine works for the past six
months is a great piece Of work in the
line of machinery, and to those who
visit the establishment daily it is won
der to behold. 1t stands just inside Of
the doors Of the main shop and it ex-
tends in height Through an opening Of
the second floor of the building. The en-
CINE is Of the Cor1iss type, and is for the
New York Central a. Hudson River
Railroad Company, TO be used in grain
elevator in New York City. In power
and weight 1t is the largest and finest
engine ever built at these works. It is
similar to the monster Corliss engine
which hundreds of our citizens saw run
ming in Machinery Hall at the Philadel-
phia Centennial in 1876, though not so
large, and that was a beam engine, and
this Is known as vertical condensing
engine.

his'massive and beautiful engine is, we
will give description of it without
going into minor details. $50
The cylinder Is set in the top Of two
cast iron frames, which are fastened in
the bed plate, making the total height
.of engine 20 feet. The base OF the
engine occupies floor space Of
