ly that 'Sefior Citro Craig, Of the Scip-
iograph, was in the city this morning
on his way to Los Angeles"
The Fallbrook Review suspended pub
lication recently, as the community
would not guarantee sufficient patron
age to support crelitable paper.
The Azusa News makes this an
nouncement at the head of it's editorial

The following from the Times-Index
is pretty tough on Company e: "The
acar-scarred veterans of Company E,
who have been in camp at Santa Mon
ica for the past ten days, returned
home this afternoon.
In the same paper is also the following
important bit of news, which for some
reason the Associated Press did not
handle:
Our Claude, the other day, became a
little careless with his colt, while on his
way to the Glendora postofice. The
horse ran into the awning pole and gave
him black eye. Some horses nearby
took fright and made work for the har-
nessmaker. We are very sorry that any
harm was done, and if the gentlemen
will send in bill for damages we will
credit it to their subscription account.
Mrs. Cornell, the housekeeper at the
Reform school, showed US the other day
a copy of the "Daily Morning CALI"

size of the Pointer, and many of the
items in it are interesting. Col. J. ].

There is no other place probably on
the Pacific coast, says the Yuma Senti-
mel, like the mouth of the Colorado
river and the upper end of the Gulf of
California, for all kinds of fish; sea bass
that weight from $50 to 750 pounds each,
CLAIMS as large as common dinner plate,
millions Of sardines and sme1t, oysters,
small but delicious, millions of soft
shelled crabs, and other shell fish,
myriads of wild geese, brants, ducks,
cranes and other sea fowl and birds. 1t
is paradise for fish and game.
Young Chormicle, near Santa Paula,
owns stallion valued at $500. Tuesday
evening it was taken i'll, and he drove to
town for DR.. Pierce. The doctor, after
arriving, proceeded to tap the animal
with an instrument behind one of the
ribs, and great quantity of gas rushed
out. A match was applied to the escap-
ing gas, and it ignited and burned with
much force, greatly to the ast0nishment
of those present. After being relieved.
the horse was able to walk about, and
may recover.-[V Ventura Free Press.
It seems that all the trouble about
bathing costumes at Ocean Grove grew
out of the fact that the elderly women
who attended camp meeting were ac-
customed to walk from their tents to
the beach in garments that revealed
their ungainly figures. This procession
became an eyesore, and SO the order
went forth that all those who left the
beach must cover their bathing costumes
with an outer garment. The pretty
young saints still show their shapes on
the beach and they continue to find ia
vor in the eyes Of godly brethren. per

There iis one thing the city of River
side ought to do by all means, and do it
at once, that is to purchase the top of
Rubidoux mountain and begin the con-
struction of public park. 1t could be
made one of the most beautiful spots in
the. world, and in few years, after the
trees and shrubbery had attained some
growth, it would be as famous as our
Magnolia avenue. In all probability it
could be purchased for mere song for
such purpose, and q judicious expendi-
ture every year would soon make it
lovely beyond words to express. Bond
the city to pave The streets, add about
twenty more electric lights, and with a
magnificent park on the top of Rubi-
doux, there would be little more to ask
for. Riverside Press.
