Activity in These Industries at San
Bernardino.
Noel Davenport, an old-tme resident of
San BernarduO, is at the Palace for a few
DAYS. The climate in his locality is always
very warm during the summer months, but
this season it has been excessively hot, and
Mr.. Davenport is disposed TO credit the in
creased temperature to the presence of the
Salton Lake. Hitherto the heat of San Ber-
nardino has been very dry, but latteIly it
has been marked by a considerable degree
of humidity, an effect undoubtedly produced
by the presence Of large body of water.
" The change IN our climate" continued
MIR. Davenport yesterday. has not per-
ceptibly affected the fruit industry, and the
yield Of all the decidu0us fruits has been
unusually large this year. Orange culture
is coming more prominently to the front
than ever, and the acreage of orange land is
increasing rapidly. Large tracts in the
vicinity of San Bernardino, Cotton, Red
lands and Riverside are being planted now,
and before long the orange belt will be pro-
ducing fruit to its fullest capacity.
"Quite an impetus has also been given to
the mining industry. Gold aud silver in
paying quantities have been discovered in
spots where their existence was hitherto un-
suspected and old proSpectorS have become
very sangulne regarding the prospects. The
iron ore which is being mined east OF Dag
gett is found In large quantities, and al
though it mas not been worked long, it
PROMISES well "

The Fruit Season Bad for Brewers.

slowly mp Olive street.

Bad, very bad" replied the brewery
agent emphatically "That sort of thing
hurts us," indicating with nod OF his head
the reach wagon.
How does it?"
why, any brewer will tell you that the
seasons which produce great quantities of
cheap fruit make the sale of beer slow. Men
don't seem 10 care for beer when they can
buy enough fruit for lunch for 4 nickel.
Last year we sold $4,000 barrels OF beer in
July, This July we sold less than $4,000
barrels. Any brewer in st. Louis will tell
you that his sales last month we're fully 40
per cent less than they were for the same
month last year, when fruit was not so
plentiful. Louis Post Dispatch.

from Aberdeen. S. D., says: 1t is learned
that the business department of the Al
lance in twenty-five states in the Union
has united with the leading business men
of New York city and formed a company
similar in its plan Of operation to the
celebrated Rochdale system in ENGLAND
and the Zion cooperative stores OF Utah.
The organization is called the National
Union company and has large means at
its command. 1t is asserted the advant-
ages to the Alliance are too fold. \
1t will have the business ability and
experience of some of the shrewdest men
in the nation at its back, while there will
apparently be plenty of capital to meet
any emergency which may arise and to
push the business as circumstances per-
init. In return, the alliance will give the
organization its patronage. 1t Is the aim
of the new organization to buy out a mer-
chant in every trade center of importance,
