A GRAND ADVERTISEMENT.
A Participants Opinion of the Orange
Carnival.


EDITORS Herald: After the opening
of the carnival at Chicago was in the
Santa Barbara exhibit every day until its
close, and during that time conversed
with hundreds of people, who evinced
tie greatest possible interest in Southern
California, and loaded me down, 80 to
speak, with all kinds of questions, many
asking for authentic information regard
ing certain localities, with view to pur-
chase. Quite number positively stated
their,intention of coming in the fall. l
question whether single exhibitor came
back without number of names of in
tending purchasers. heard one of them
say he had about thirty names, all men
of considerable capital. Several business
men and others holding good
positions in, Chicago, told me that
it was their intention to buy
land and plant trees, and so
soon as they come into profitable bear
ing come and live here, in the meantime
making arrangements for the care of the
trees. Whether intended for an.adver-
tising scheme or not, it has nevertheless
been the grandest advertisement in the
interests OF Southern California, and if
the executive committee had come back
many thousand dollars in debt it would
even then have been money we'll spent.
Yours respectfully, G. PERKINS.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
Meeting of the Board of Director:
Last Evening.

Meeting of the Board of Directors
Last Evening.
The board Of directors of the chamber
of commerce held their regular meeting
last night with about the usual attend.
ance. President 9. M. Wells occupied
the chair.
Attention was called to the fact that
some of the directors were in the habit
of neglecting to attend the meetings OF
the board, and it was decided to have
the secretary notify all the directors
that it was extremely desirable that
they should attend the meetings of the
board, as matters of Importance were to
be discussed.
Major r. w. Jones called atten tion to
the postponement of the receipt on to a
week from tonight, and gave general
outline of the proposed programme,
with the names of the speakers and
other particulars. He said that the re-
ception would be a pleasant affair and
that the charge of 81 per ticket was a
merely nominal charge, and to cover in
cidental expenses.
Bills to the amount of $3.50 were
audited and paid. Several of these
were old bills, which the low state of
the chambers finances have rendered
it impossible to pay sooner. Over $500
has been paid at the last two meetings
of the board, leaving less than $1,000
standing unpaid at the present time.
A discussion on the recent raise in
rates, both passenger and freight, by
the railroad companies, occupied the
balance of the evening, and it was de-
cided to appoint committee to en-
deavor to secure concerted action on the
part of those interested toward inducing
the railroads to be more reasonable in
their charges.
b Several new members have been listed
at the chamber in the past two days,
and a number OF 50 subscriptions have
/ been received from those too busy to
solicit members. M

MORTALITY IN THE STATE.
Features of the Report of the Board
of Health.

Features of the Report of the Board
of Health.
The monthly report of the state board
of health contains the following remarks,
which will be OF interest to many:
Mortality reports from sixty-seven
cities, towns and localities, having a
population Of 674, $50, show 1864 deaths
to have occurred from all causes.
La grippe is responsible for thirteen
deaths, and there is a reasonable pre-
sumption that many fatal cases of lung
disease are traceable directly to an at
tack of that disease. Dipthheria
caused death in forty-eight cases, San
Francisco furnishing twenty-seven. This
disease is undoubtedly communicated
by germ contagion or infection, but the
principal influences contributing to its
virulence and fatality are soil pollution
and bad drainage, with resulting vitiated
air and impure water. 1t follows then
that the efforts to reduce the numerical
quantity and lessen the fatality of this
disease should consist in the construc-
tion of good sewers and good drains, the
removal of all offensive matter, the oblit-
Grafton of stagnant water and the ami
hildblOi VI l(idiiiiNCd 10 BifCh do
the cause of nine deaths. Localities
having large number of cases OF la
grippe show also an increase in diarr-
hea; the city of Fresno, for example,
reporting thirty-three cases of la grippe
and eighteen of diarrhea.
The only disease that may be said to
prevail extensively is la grippe, 1858 cases
being reported from different parts OF
the state, with an accredited fatality of
thirteen. The progress of this remarka-
BILE malady has been somewhat erratic,
following no well-defned course, and re-
quiring no unusual local condition for
its development. 1t is unnecessary TO
predict its future in California. Ii the
prevalence of moisture in some portions
of the state during April is responsible
for the extension of its visit, it would
seem to follow that San Francisco, which
had heavier rainfalls than for years be-
fore in April, should have had la grippe.
Such, however, was not the case none
being reported. The southern portion,
OF the state has not been entirely ex-
empt. Needles and Calico are in re-
gion rated by the signal office as below
normal in rainfall for April, but yet they
have suffered severely from la grippe.
In these instances moisture cannot have
been the cause.

ARMY HEADQUARTERS.
THE SHOOTING MATCH TO BE HELD
AT FORT BAYARD.
The Attempt to Get 1t for Santa Monica
Fails-A Winchester with a Peculiar
History.

1t is one of the regulations of the
army that once yeara shooting con-
test be held by the soldiers. at which
various prizes are offered. Each post
holds its own contest, and it has been
customary to select the best man of
each company to represent it, and these
men to shoot against each other for
prizes. From these developed the divi-
sion contest, such as was held at Mon
terey year ago, when men from all the
posts in what was then the division of
the Pacific competed for various medals.
The division having been done away
with, it is intended this year to hold a
contest between representatives from
all parts of the department of Arizona.
An effort was made by officers at the
headquarters to have the contest take
place at Santa Monica, or some other
point near Los Angeles, but the depart
ment has selected Fort Bayard as the
place for the contest.
Among recent additions to Lieutenant
Collins's collection of firearms at army
headquarters, is an old Winchester rifle
with peculiar history. 1t seems that a
detachment of soldiers crossing the des-
ert came across the camp of lone Eng
lishman, who was sitting calmly smoking
pipe and watching some mess cooking
on the fire before him. The mess proved
to be composed of human flesh, and it
transpired that he had had companion,
whom, for reasons known to himself, he
had shot and was engaged in cooking
when discovered. The man was taken
to the nearest town and delivered over
to the civil authorities, while the gun

in question.

seven months his head was entirely well.
When we began using it his head was solid

Hoods SGrs0pGriLJG.
I am pioneer in this county, having been
here 80 years. Four years ago my little son
Eliery became blood-poisoned by impure virus In
vaccination. His arm swelled terribly, causing
great agony; physicians said the arm must be
amputated, and even then his recovery would
be doubtful. One day read about blood puri-
ner, new to me, and was surprised to learn that Il
was prepared by C. I. Hood, with whom used to
30 to school in Chelsea,vt. I decided to have
my boy try Hoods sarsaparilla, and was much
gratifed when 1t seemed to help him. He con-
tinued to grew better as we gave him the sarsar
parilla, and having used bottles is now entirely
cured. As Hoods Sarsaparilla has accomplished
such wonderful results, I recommend it all pos
sibly can" JEROME M. SLEEPER. Upper Lake.
