distance Of two miles from two inches to

they had extracted about $1,000 worth
OF almost pure gold from the decomposed
quartz groupings. They Immediately

Special Correspondence to the HERALD

Special Correspondence to the HERALD
POMONA, March IA, 1891.
"Dull times" is the usual greeting in
Pomona Mondays. Why this condition
of the public mind we are unable to say.
Farmers tell US that crop prospects have
not been so good for ten years as they
are today in this valley. The present
indications point to an unprecedentedly
fine crop in Southern California, while
the indications for the eastern fruit
crop are discouraging go that good
prices for fruit are likely to prevail this
season, bringing in revenue that
ought to satisfy any reasonable man.
The only explanation Of the growing,
grumbling and gloomy forebodings that
we hear, is that we live, move and
have our being in the present, and that
the future is expected to take care of
its own precious self. "We live in
anticipation of better things" seems to
cut no figure in the every day life OF the
average Southern Californian. The
prospect in Southern California was
never better than it is now for a
ing, and only man complains.

A man may steal, he may lie and
cheat his neighbor; he may do almost
anything in the catalogue of inhibited
things; he may violate every principle
of truth, honesty, integrity and virtue
but when he steals out at night and de.
liberately cuts, hacks and destroys his
neighbours young, growing orange trees,
he wins the title of the meanest man
the most cowardly and despicable villain
on earth. Last winter there were many
young orange trees stolen after they had
been planted out, but the climax o
meanness is capped. A citizen of thif
valley had large number of his fine
thrifty orange trees hacked to piecel

A HOwLING BLIZZARD.
Winter Takes . Fresh Hold in Kansas
Oklahoma and Missouri.

KANSAS Cry, Mo-, March 14.-Dis-
patches from points all over Kansas re-
port severe blizzard raging. The snow
is OF the hard variety, and wherever it
drifts forms banks as hard as sand. AT
Newton and other interior towns the
blizzard is reported the worst OF the
season, and trains are badly delayed T;
street traffic is interfered with.
In this city the blizzard made its ap-
pearance shortly after midnight. The
fall of snow is quite heavy, but is not
sufficient to hinder traffic.
Tie storm continues tonight without
abated ferceness. The fall Of snow is
six to eight inches on the level, proving
troublesome to the railroads.
A Wichita dispatch states that the
fall OF snow in the southwest averages
eight inches on the level. Many tele-
graph wires west of there are down, and
it is difficult for dispatchers to keep
trains moving. The street railway SER
vice at Wichita is abandoned.
Dispatches from various points in Ok

walls there also. A Guthrie special

heavy norther is prevailing. Many of

agents. They have no means of pro-
viding against an emergency. Many
have no places to sleep. All are poorly
clothed and the majority are without
money. No fatalities are reported, but il
the storm continues another twenty-four
hours, such reports are expected.
Dispatches from Northwestern Mis-
souri, show that the storm is raging
there.
