The Farmer a Skilled Laborer

Viewed from the lofty standpoint Of
the New York Hod carriers Union, con-
sidered from the hall Of the Philadelphia
Bill-posters' Protective Association, the
prairie farmer is simply clodhopper.
He is man who decides to have corn,
wheat and potatoes instead of wild
grass, grow on certain piece of land,
and plants the seed that will produce
them. In point of fact, more knowledge
and skill are requisite for prosecuting
his craft than chat of any city
artisan. 1t requires more skill to
handle plow than trowel. 1t is more
difficult to manage q reaping machine
than machine that turns out brick.
Greater knowledge is needed to SOW
grain than to move switches in freight
yard. Much more information, expert
ence and skill are needed TO raise tobacco
plants, to cultivate them, and properly to
cure the leaves, than to make them into
cigars. Laying drain tile is a more diff
cult art than laying brick. Properly to
remove fleece from a sheep demands
as great dexteritv as to shave the beard
from the face. The successful farmer is
necessarily a skilled laborer. He 10
master, not of one trade, but of many,
and long time is required to learn each
of them. He is also merchant, and to
be prosperous he must be judge of the
quality OF many things, aud know how to
buy and sell them to the best advantage.

Cheauc Rank Checks.

Tie city Of Los Angeles is noted for the en-
terprise of its citizens, so much 80 that the at
tention of capitalists and others from all parts
of the world is directed to this city. An
agency for the justly celebrated Cheque Bank
checks of London has recently been secured to
this city by that enterprising bank, the Main
street Savings Bank and Trust Company. The
convenience Of these checks to travellers in
foreign lands, and to parties desiring to send
money to foreign cities, is too well known to
need comment here. = hey have been in sue
cessful operation for many years past, and are
steadily gsowing in popularity as they become
better known.
Following is a copy of photo-engraved copy
of a letter written by Miss Nellie BLY,, which ex-
plains itself:
NEW YORK, Goth January, 1890.
agents Cheque Bank, Limited:
''GENTLEMEN-In response to your inquiry l
will say that took the book OF Cheque Bank
checks with me on my tour around the world
and found them available as ready cash in
every port that visited I assureyou that they
are a great convenience to travellers and are
only to be known and understood to be appre.
ciated. Yours truly,

A Number of FrHitmem Charged

A Number of Fruitnem Charged
with Obstruction.
Some five or six weeks ago an old
orange vendor, named Cobb, who for
several years had peddled oranges from
. wagon on the corner of First and
Spring streets, was restrained from doing
80 any longer by the police, owing to
the pressure brought to bear upon the
authorities by the fruiterers who rented
stands in the vicinity. 1t would appear
that Cobb was of the opinion that if he
was compelled to comply with the provi-
sions of the city ordinances, he would
see that others of his calling also did SO,

THE TREBLE CLEF.
The Second Concert Draws am Im
mense Crowd.

menSe CrOWd,
The second concert this season of the
Treble Clef Club, given last night at Turn
Verein hall for the benefit of the Orphans
Home, drew one of the largest and most
fashionable audiences that has ever
assembled in the hall, and a handsome
sum must have been realized for the
beneficiary. AS there were no reser~ed
seats the audience arrived early, and the
programme was begun promptly at the
hour named in the announcement. 1t
had been the expressed desire of the
ladies OF the chorus that all the ladies in
the audience should appear without hats
or bonnets, and it was pity
that more did not heed the
request, only about half OF
them leaving their millinery at home
In the rendition of the programme the
ladies showed marked improvement
over their first effort, and at the same
rate of progression, with slight change
in the arrangement of the voices, the
third concert will compare favorably
with ladies' choruses of older standing
The programme selected for last nights
concert comprised a number of pieces Of
light nature, and nothing that required
great deal of work. 80 that Mrs. Jiran
D. Cole, the efficient conductor, was able
to keep the chorus well in
hand. In fact she welded the
baton so we'll and the ladies
followed it so undarstandingly
that 80 far as execution goes there vas q
great deal to be admired. The fault if
there was one, and it was not glsring,
Was in the voices. There were one or
two very thin voices among the high
sopranos that tended to spoil the effect
in the louder passages, but these were
somewhat counterbslsnced by the round
ness and fulness of the alto voices, which
generally are the hardest to )tain. Al
together the ladies have reason to feel
we'll satisfied with their work so far.
Mrs. f. j. Thayer's solos were very we'll
received and she was given warm en-
core. Miss Lou Beeson was also en-
cored, as was Miss Adele Stonemsn.
Miss Kate Rider, the pianist, evil
IDENTIFY was not at her best in
Liszt's Twelfth Rhapsodie. In the
Joseffy ''Minuet'' (Borcherini) Ter
Interpretation was more intelligent. Miss
Grace Cochran sang the soprano solo in
part of Reinecke's cantata, 'Bethle-
hem," and Miss Emma Torrey gave the
alto solo allotted to the Shepherd. Miss
Grace Smith played the violin obligato
to Mrs. Beeson's solo very acceptably.
1t was the expressed desire on the
part of number present that the Ellis
Club and the Treble Clef Club unite
forces for the last concert of the season
and give final wind up to the seasons
music. The ladies' chorus ia fully the
equal of the Ellis chorus, even if it is
the younger organic alton.

Yosemite Co I'M ini siOner.

Major Truman,s Reslgna ti0n as
Yosemite @ o I'M m ssiOner.
Major Ben G. Truman, who was APP
pointed by Governor Waterman tive
years ago as a Yosemite commissioner
for the term of four years, and who was
elected by the commission at the annual
! meetings of 1889 as secretary and
treasurer, sent in his resignation to the
Governor on the 18th inst, as per the
following letter:
Los ANGELES, March IL, 1890.
Hon. r. W. Waterman, Governor of Cali
.fornia:
My DEAR GovERNoR-Conscious that I
cannot attend the next annual meeting
If the Yosemite Commission in the val
tley. have the honor to tender you my
resignation as a commissioner, said res
ignation to take place on this day, or
any time after, as it may be convenient
for you to accept. Please accept renewed
assurances of my high esteem, and be-.
lievs me to be yours very truly to com
mand, BEN q. TRUMAN.
In the reports of the two houses of the
last Legislature and the separate report
made by Hon. Stephen S. White, re.
garding the Yosemite investigation
! Major Truman's report was highly
praised, and his books and accounts as
secretary and treasurer were officially
declared to be "models of bsauty, cor
rectness and perfection"
The Major assigns as the reason of his
resignation that he has been in the val
ley seven times, and does not want to at
tend in June next, and that he believes
that no man should hold to such posi-.
ton when he knows positively that he
cannot attend an annual meeting in the
valley, and thereby, perhaps, prevent q
quorum. The commission at present is
com posed of Governor Waterman, Frank

DISEASES OF THE
Head, Throat, Lungs
Successfully treated by
NJ. HILTON WILLIAMS. MD.
M. C. P So.
By His Hot Air Medicated Limitations and his
COMPOUND OXYGEN TREATMENT
ASTHMA.

IL ls common error to suppose every disease
whlch Is at ended by oppressed brea'hing to be
Asthma Or Phthisic. We have shortness of breath
IN CCnsum ption and PaeumOnis, Just as we do
In Asthma, only that in these diseases it is al
ways present, whereas i'll Asthma 1t occurs in
parOXysms.
Asthma is a spasmodic disease of the lungs,
which manitests itself in periodic attacks or
"nts 1t comes on suddenly and is attended
with great difficulty of breathing while it lasts,
but when the attack is over the patient breathes
almost as well as in health.
Nervous Humid and Dry Asthma are names
given to different forms of this disease. Emphy-
eema is an other and more inveterate kino Of
Asthma, while Hay Fever or Rose Cold is pc.
culiar variety Asthma which occurs at
of disease differs somew hat from the others in
syn ptoms, but practically these distinc ions
of very little value. 1t does not matter to the
patient which form Of Asthma he has, since his
sufferings are the same in all. In one case the
expectoration becomes yellow, and we call it
bronchial. In another it is light and we cnll it
white froth on the surface, we say he has
Humoral Asthma. In Nervous Asthma there is
very little expectoration of any kind. Hay
Fever always begins. as a crying cod il the
head or influenza, and a clear water runs from
the nose and the eyes before the Asthma fit
comes on. II Emphysema the expectoration is
generally thick, aud continues SO in the
interva' between the fits while the shortness
of breath is increased on the slightest exertion
1t is foolish cOnceit of many people to
believe that if they have Asthma they cannot
get Consumption. The truth is he very op-
pOslIe. Iney are more liable to f6ll into Con-
sumption because they have Asthma Another
idea is that Asthma itself is not dangerous
disease, and yet the published bills of mortality
for this city prove to all who read them that
great numbers lose their lives every year by
this foul destroyer of our homes.
Wit out courage and perseverance, nothing is
durable. But with these aided by proper and
skillful treatment, Asthma can be cured even
, after the lungs are extensively diseased.
Persons desiring treatment by this system of
practice can use the remedies at home as well
as at our Office and which will cause no incon-
venience or hindrance from business whatever
Every case of Asthma is durable. Eastern
visitors and invalids will be wise in being cured
before they return home.
Those wno desire 90 consult with me IN egard
to their cases had better call OF the otfcs for
an examination, but II impOs sible to visit the
office pers onally can write for list of questions
aud circular, both OF whioa will be sent free of
