bedded in rock-ribbed conditions that
mean the finest upheaval in values and
development ever recorded. And that
is just where Los Angeles stands, and is
the condition into which Angelefios will
be precipitated. They could not help
their splendid destiny if they would,
and we doubt their ability to arrest it if
they could. AS the people OF Los An
geles are really somewhat lacking in
enterprise, and the fioodtide of success
overwhelms them, they will probably
repeat the refrain, ''such is life on the
border in the far west,' and be glad of
it. while knowing that they have done
very little to bring these pleasant con-
ditions about. Manifest destiny has
helped many a man and region out in
the past and win be very potential in
that line in Los Angeles.

was made payable in 20 years, in full,
there being a number of installment
payments previously. For example, 5
rer cent. of the face of each bond would
be paid in ii years, 6 per cent. in IL, 7
per cent. in l3 and so on. This arrange
ment was very complex, and under the
new statute a radical change is pro-
posed. Now, 5 per cent. of the whole
issue, that would be 100000, would be
made payable in full in IL years; per
cent, that is $4,000, PAYABLE in full in
II years, and so forth. The purchaser
under the new law can therefore
select whatever variety of bond
he wishes, and be certain
of a full redemption on a
certain date instead of being compelled
to hold his bonds for twenty years and
receive installments.
Mr.. Porter made motion to instruct
the secretary to have the bylaws
printed and copies distributed among
the members.
Mr.. Green, of Colusa, spoke on the
subject of having the irrigation bonds
listed in New York, Chicago and Lon
don. The bonds must be steel-engraved
in order to be listed, and it would cost
each district $1,000 for the plate. The
speaker thought that before long the
outlay would be justified by the advan-
tage, but that the credit OF the districts
would first have to be more firmly es-
tablished.
The convention passed resolutions
thanking the press and the members of
the board of trade, and, through Mr..
Wicks, presented VIM. s. Green, of the
Colusa Sun, with a handsome gold
locket set with gems, as an expression
of their appreciation of his labors in
behalf of irrigation.
Gen. Wiley announced that he would
go to London in a few weeks, and would
there do all in his power in the matter
of placing the bonds.
The convention then adjourned until
the first Monday in January, 1898, at
Sacramento.

AMMONIA AND SUICIDES.
One of the Most Certain Agents for
Causing Death by Slow Poison.
Nav NA-k Srn

One OF tne MOST (cItAin agents toi
Causing Death by Slow Poison.
New York sun.
OF the number of those seeking sui.
eide by swallowing some form of poison,
probably there are few who have sought
to kill themselves oy means o. ammo
MIA. Nevertheless ammonia, although
| it is the active agent in most of the salts
sold to women for their gilt decorated
and periumed scent bottles, is poisonous
when taken internally in concentrated
form. To attest this there have been
recently in New York several cases. the
most recent being that of Herman Har-
owitE, OF which Deputy Coroner Jen-
kias said that death took place in q
comparatively short time after the
ammonia was taken. In another case,
that of a child, Dr.. Jenkins said death
resulted in five minutes after swallow
ing the ammonia solution.
There are on record also cases of slow
poisoning from ammonia administered
with intent to commit murder. Fur
thermore, the appearance OF workmen
in guano factories, where ammonia is
set free by grinding guano, has been
noted, and in every case there is an un-
mistakable system of poisoning. This
is discoloration of the skin OF the face,
which assumes blotched dirty appear
ance. First to take on this appearance
is the skin of the nose and forehead.
Autopsies of those who die from ammo
MIA poisoning reveal dark hue on the
mucous membrane lining the stomach
and intestines.
AS an agent for causing death by slow
poisoning, ammonia is one OF the most
certain and most difficult OF detection,
owing to its volatile nature. This quail
ity has led physicians to believe that
some of the mysterious deaths that have
taken place in the history of modern
and medieval crime are due to am
monia. 1t is known now that
months have elapsed between the first
symptoms of sickness and the death of
a person from ammonia poisoning. On
the other hand, death has resulted in
four minutes from the time a large
draulht of ammonia has been swal-
lowed. 1t hes been found in cases of
gradual absorption of ammonia in the
human system that there is a general
elimination of healthy oxidation of the
blood and consequent lowering of the
bodily strength. In the cases of imme-
diate poisoning, death comes with
frightful agony, as in the case of Harrow
itz. Blood gushed from his nose and
mouth.
Statistics in England put ammonia
thirteenth in frequency in the list of
poisons. Alexander Winter Blyth, med
ical officer of health in the st. Maryle-
bone district, London, cites thirty cases
of poisoning by ammonia swallowed for
the purpose of committing suicide, or
administered with the purpose of COM
mitting murder, or absorbed unconsciouslu
IN food. OF the suicidal cases six were
fatal. OF twenty accidental cases twelve
were fatal. OF cases of murder with
ammonia. DIR. Blyth notes two, both of
them children.

In THE good old days of the Demo
cratic party we had Prince John Van
Buren,. John was lovable fellow. He
happened to be over in England when
the lovely and blithesome Victoria, then
lately crowned queen, was married to
Albert of Saxe-Coburg- Gotha. John was
young, bright and handsome, and in
describsbly fascinating and winsome.
Being the son of the preside mt of
the United States, and of course
invited to the balls at Buckingham
palace or Hampton court, or wherever
they were held, he quite naturally
opened the quadrille with the young
queen. Hence came his nickname of
Prince John. The, Republican press,
ignorant of the circumstances, are try
ing to revamp the Van Buren, incident.
They dub Russell Harrison 'Prince Rus
SELL" AS a matter of fact, this is a piece
OF clumsy imitation. John Van Buren
was a man who would have accepted no
office. He was wiser and wittier than
forty generations OF the Harrison fam
lily. The gracious young queen and the
son OF the president of the United States
gave currency to by-word that ought
to have been allowed to remain in the
Van Buren family.

Yesterday.

twice yesterday.
The first instance was that of James
Mcknight, an old resident of San
Juan Capistrano, who was on a
Downey avenue car going north. AS
the car turned into Spring street from
First he was thrown from it by It's tre-
mendous lunges, and fell to the ground.
fracturing his skull. He suffered little
as he was senseless from the time he
fell until late in the afternoon. He is
very likely to die from his wounds.
At s O'Clock last evening Filippe Alirso
was struck by dummy, at the corner
of Ord and Upper Main streets, and
frightfully injured, his hip being dislo-
Gated and his head being severely
confused.
The way the cable cars are allowed to
lunge around the fearfully and won
derfully planned curves of the road is
something which would not be tolerated
elsewhere. Passengers are jerked and
pitched about violently, and as a rule
are obliged to grasp the back of the seat
in front of them to retain their seats.
The council once took some action to-
wards prohibiting the passing of cars
around the curve at First and Spring
streets at a rapid rate, but nothing has
ever been done about the matter.

w. w. Poates, of Hesperia, in this
county, committed suicide on Monday
morning. The San Bernardino Courier
gives the following facts For the last
couple of weeks Mr.. Poates has been
sick and at times out of his head. For
a few days past his mind has been wan
dering far more than usual, and to this
is attributed his rash act. On Monday
morning Mr.. Poates arose as usual,
about o'clock, and went to the stable
to clean his horses. After cleaning
them he committed suicide in the barn
by hanging himself with rope. Mr..
Poates was G. A. R. man and was
about 30 years of age. For about
twenty years he taught school in Michi-
gan. For some time past he has been
living at Hesperia, and he lately bought
