The Oakland Enquirer describes the San
Joaquin Valley as an almost ideal place for
train robberies, and the robbers display a
quick appreciation Of the fact. On the wide
sandy plains it is some times twenty miles
between stations, and generally there is not a
house in sight. The wind blows the sand
or dust sufficiently to oblterate the tracks
Of men or horses. and the frequent river or
creek bottoms are full OF timber or brush,
atfordlng capital hiding places On either
side Of the valley is range OF mountains
into which the robbers may escape by a
days ride. In short. there is not a better
place in the United States for train-robbing,
and four times in the last two years aud a

Written for THE MORNING CALL
1t has come, after many years
Filled with sorrow, pain aud care;
OF longing. regret and bitter te1rs;
But these are now forever past
And answered In the sufferers prayer,
For she has found sweet rest at last.
Nomore will sorrow dim her eyes,
For now her trials all are Ger.
She sees the fields OF paradise,
The light Of heavens eternal day;
The flowers blooming on that shore
Where all our tears are wiped away.
On US below the storms may beat,
But she we love is ecure from all.
Her hours of Loneliness are past;
And though on US the tempests fall
She has found rest-sweet rest at last

A Paper for the Million.

The Western Rural and american
Stoch7ade is one of the Oldest and ablest
farm journals published in this coun-
try, and none is more fully identified
with the best interests of the agricul-
tural classes. 1t deals not only with
the farm but more especially with the
farmer. Its columns are devoted to
subjects involving literature and
science and its aims are for the pro-
motion and elevation of the social and
economic condition of the farmer and
his family. The Rewal advocates ply
steal culture and manual training as
we'll as intellectual endowment. 1t be-
lieves that the State owes to the citi-
zens the right to such an education as
shall fit him for a self-reliant citizen
ship and our public school system
should be enlarged along the more
practical lines. In short, the R,rdl is
a fireside companion as we'll as helper
in the affairs of farm life Subscrip-
tlon price $3.50 per year. For free

From the Sunny South.

| CRoNANToN, Fla, Jan. 26. 1891.
DEAR UNION: Feeling that I'M
der the circumstances my long
silence is almost inexcusable, I will
try to write to you this afternoon.
| have intended to write something
''next week" ever since we arrived
here, but the weeks 90 by and the
writing isn't done. Will try to dc
better in future.
Well, we are here, and it looks
at present as if we should stay.
though the weather is not so pleas
ant this winter as last. We have
had more wind and rain, and as a
general thing it has been colder,
though there has been no frost ex-
cept on five or six mornings, and
then not hard enough to kill roses,
which are in bloom all winter.
Every Sunday the, young ladies at
church are decorated with roses
and geraniums the same as in Min
nesota in summer.
Speaking of churches, we have
every denomination under the sun
represented, [ think, though not
enough of any one denomination to
do very much. [ think there will
be a M. E. class formed soon, of
some twenty members, and a
church built during the present
year. Our resident pastor, Rev.
Croman, has been doing what he
could for the place in religious
way and supporting himself, but
we hope to have an improvement
on that way of doing things in the
near future.
AS regards coming here to live,
| will say as I have said many a
time before, unless a person has
