Death of George Baily.

Mr.. Geo. Baily, for many years the
leading hardware merchant of this place,
bat whose failing health caused him to
retire from business several years ago,
died at the residence of his brother, MI.
Jas. Baily, in Baltimore, on Friday, and
was inferred by the side of his wif1 and
daughter, in the Lutheran cemetery,
here on Monday afternoon.
Mr.. Bally was one of the best mtn we
have ever known. Upright and honest
in everything, gentleman at all times
and an humble. faithful christian, no one
ever had to greater degree the sincere
love and respect OF all who knew him. Mr..
Baily was called on in his old age to
part with bis devoted wife and the last
of his children, but he bore it all with
the most manly fOrtitude, and although
his heart was doubtless almost breaking
under these Affections, the face he turned
to the world was one of calm, !. piling,
christian resignation.
AS far as man can be judged, Geo.
Baily was a model man, one whom 1t
would be safe to follow. He was laid to
rest amid the sad hearts and falling tears
of many friends. He was IN his 10Th
year.

On Friday, of last week, a dog belong
ing to Mr.. Lemuel Wakeman, on Toms
Brook, about six miles north OF here,
showed symptoms of hydrOphob!a, and
was at once securely penned. By the
next day he had developed the horrible
disease to a full and unmistakable degree,
foaming at the mouth. snaT ping at every
thing, within reach, even lnanima'e
objects, such as rags, sticks, &c. After
every one who saw him had been fully
convinced that there could be DO doubt
as to the nature of the disease the AMI
nal was killed. Fortunately he was
noticed and secured in time to prevent
him from iujuring anything. Had be
wandered off before his condition was
discovered, or had Mr.. Wakeman been
careless or Indifferent as some people
seem to be in regard to this fearful dis
case the consequences might have been
sickening to contemplate. There is more
0. less danger of this disease making its
appearance in any section of our county
at any momen', and we feel that we would
not be doing our duty if we failed to i'm
press upon our people the great lmpor-
lance and necessity of being on guard at
all times. Carefully watch every strange
dog you meet on the road or elsewhere,
and above all DO not let those reckless or
silly persons, especially those whO seem
to value dog above human life, divert
you from or close your eyes to the danger
of terrible death from hydrophoOa that
unquestionably exists in our county
to-dav.

On Saturday last, by mistake, Mrs.
George Armentrout, OF near Moore's Store,
gave her daughter, Mrs. Edward PomerOy
a tablespoonful of t;nct. BelladOnna for
another medicine. Although til mistake
was discovered. neither Of the women
felt any alarm being unacQuainted with
the poisonous quality of the dose given.
When tho danger became apparent
through the sickness Of Mrs. Pomeroy,
DR.. D. F. Burner, of Woodstock, who
fortunately had arrived in the neighbOr-
hood a few hours preyious, was called in,
and with her physician, DR.. Kelley, who
also arrived, her life was saved.
On Sunday last Cheney Eskridge, liy-
ing near Zepp, in the Cedar Creek Valley,
met with a painful accident. He hitched
his horse to road cart and started to
drive to preaching, when the horse be-
came unmanageable and upset the cart
throwing Mr.. E.kyidge out and dragging
him some distance. Although badly
bruised, and in consequence suffering
much pain, we are glad to say that Mr..
Eskridge's inilries are not dangerous,
and under the skllful treatment of DR..
Cover he is dong as well as could be ex-
pected, ard We hope to hear of bis speedy
and entire recovery.

pretty closely spotted. They cut off the
heads of a number and by the blood and
feathers they were tracked right home.
Five Of the stolen fowls were old hens
that were taken from oyer their little
chicks. We Learn that the above named
parties will be prepared for the next
visit, aud will riddle the scoundrels with
balls. Let every one bear in mind the

The last echo Of the Luray "BOom"
rolled along the MasSanutien mountain

when the last lots of the boom scheme
we're knocked down at prices ranging
from 81, so to $l7, Daring the crazy ex-
citement of the boom these lots sold for
figures raging from 5000 to $500, prices
a long ways above what such lots could
have been bought for in the eligible
suburbs of hichmond, one of the most

have at times, appeared in different sec

The result of this action, we hope, Will

Riverside Enterprise: The Riverside
Fruit Exchange reports that prospects
are Frightening up, and that there are
more inquiries so far this week than
ever before. The exchange people have
been criticised for selling fruit at auction
at a few OF the for eastern points, where
it was next to impossible to sell TO b.
owing to the heavy supply of Floridss.
They sold at auction and forcsd our
fruit upon the market.
From one point where two carloads
have been sold at auction at very low
prices the exchange has within two days
sold five carloads I. o. b. at regular
prices. From adjacent cities that re-
ceived fruit from these two carloads
dealers have been asking for quotations
on over Is carloads These cities have
never used California oranges to any ex-
tent much before the middle of March.
The low prices at auction caused wide
distribution and allowed the dealers to
make some money and also gave con-
sumera chance to sample the oranges.
From several middle and western
points the exchange is receiving word
that markets are beginning to clean up
and prospects are that California oranges
will be ordered within the next few
days. The extreme cold weather east
has interlered to some extent, but the
correspondence and inquiries now being
received are very encouraging. Florida
oranges are carrying worse than ever

The Weather Bureaus Report OF Their
Condition.
The weather bureau furnishes the fol-
lowing weather-crop bulletin Of the
Southern California weather service for
the week ending Monday, February
18th:
The prevailing features of the past
week were a continuation Of the cool
weather referred to in the bulletins of
late. occasional light frosts IN exposed
localities and several showers OF rain
the first and latter parts OF the week,
which were quite heavy in the northern
districts and light in the extreme south
ern. The rain at the end of the week
was followed by high northerly winds,
which are not reported to have caused
damage. The cool weather and defi-
cheney in precipitation, which Ia becom-
ing marked, causes vegetation to grow
slowly, though in the sections favored
by the recent rain decided improve
ment is noticeable. Soaking rains and
warm sunshine are needed to give an
impetus to grain and phsture.
SAN LUIS oBIsPo COUNTY.

much good; grain is now up nicely
farmers are blowing for summer crops.
Cold nights and winds keep back the
grass; 2.l3 inches of ram fell.

sown barley and al6lerilla are up and
growing nicely.
Duarte-Young grain is growing nice

owing to low prices.
Pomona-.32 of an inch OF rain fell
Friday night, making 1055 inches for
the season. The past week was one OF
clouds. sunshine, frost and q little rain.
There was strong wind last Friday
night, but not at all destructive. AS
time tells the facts, we still find the
damage to our oranges by the late freez-
ing weather less than originally esti-
mated.

improved since the rain.

week greatly stimulated the growth of

fell, but the amount was too small to do
