Stole an Orchard.

A novel theft has been reported to the
sheriff by a farmer who lives near
French Camp, on the turnpike. This
farmer came to town Saturday and left
his farm in charge Of his young son for
the day. The boy saw some men Dig
ging up fruit trees in the young orchard
his father had started and went out to
them to inquire what they were at.
The men said they had bought all the
trees from the owner and were digging
them up to take them away. The boy
thought of course it was as the men
said, and that his father had really sold
the trees, so he made no protest. When
the father came home, he was greatly as
tonished to find that his orchard had
disappeared during his absence at Stock
ton.
The young son told him what had hap
pened, and steps were taken at once to
find some trace of the trees if possible,
but without success. None of the nurs-
erymen here has bought any trees an
swering the description, and it cannot
be learned that any of that sort have
been shipped from Stockton. About 800
trees in all were stolen. Stockton (Cal. }

We have had good seasoning raips for the
past week. 1t commenced raining here last
night about nine o'clock, and continued most
of the night and it looks to-day like it would
pour down at any minute.
Crops are looking well, about as good as
the writer has seen for the time OF year.
Corn is fine, cotton is much finer than we
can expect because most of our farmers did
not use any manure. But will tell you, Mr..
Editor, the crop of 6sh is the finest that I
have ever heard Of. Many people have a lot
of them dried, and we are glad to see this
rain, for We do not want to see the poor little
fish all eaten up in such way as that.

whether he will be candidate or not, and
one of his CLOSETS personal friends has just
assured me that Mr. Crisp has not yet decided
the matter.
Two New York bankers of prominence had
an experience in Washington several years
ago that will probably make them more
careful in the future about believing every
statement they see in the newspapers of the
class which make practice of printing the
sensation FIRST and ascertaining its truthful
ness afterwards. A newspaper of this class
had story to the effect that the President
would gladly issue another $50, 100000, of
bonds if he were certain they could be placed
without any trouble. These two bankers
filled with patriotism and desire to profit
ably invest the money of their customers
came at once to Washington and went to the
White House, where they proceeded to sur
prise President Cleveland by offering to take
that entire bond issue. Mr.. Cleveland as
su.ed them that there was not the slightest
foundation for the bond issue story that the
administration had not contemplated any
further issue of bonds and that there was no
reason in anything now known to expect
that there would be any necessity FOR the
question to be considered at any time in the
future. Surely that ought to be sufficient to
settle the matter, but all the same that bond
issue story will continue to be printed in one
form or another, as it has been from time to
time, by those who know its falsity.
Senator Harris's programme has 80 often
heen upset and changed by circumstances
ever which be had no control that he deserves
great credit for not having lost heart entirely
before now. 1t is his present intention if the
final vote on the tariff bill be not reached on
Tuesday to compel the Senate to hold a ses-
sion on the Fourth of July, bat, of course, it
all depends on the vote of the Senate as to
whether his intention can be carried out. In
the absence of a unanimous agreement as to
when the final vote shall be takea there is
nothing in the rules of the Senate to prevent
Senator getting the floor and speaking for
the rest Of the week, if so disposed. Senator
Aldricb, who has been the leader of the re-
publicans in the tariff fight, said this mors-
ing that 80 far as he knew no republican
Senator would make another get speech on
the bill and that he saw no reason why a
vote could not be reached some time Tuesday.
No good reason existed that prevented vote
being reached long ago, but we all know
that it hasn't been reached.

She Got Something Pretty.

A pretty story is going the rounds
about Rosa Bonheur. Some time ago a
Russian grand duke was visiting Paris
and CHANGED to dine in her company.
They got on very well, and at dessert
they ate philopena together-that is to
say, they shared double almond. But
the duke, when next day they met, for
got to say "philopena" and lost the bet.
He asked the artist what present he
should give her, and she added laugh
ingly, "Any animal that would do to
paint-something pretty, you know" :"
The duke smiled ;lRi departed.
Nothing more was heard of him, and
the lady had quite forgotten the affair
when, some months afterward, the royal
forfeit arrived-to wit, three enormous
polar bears.
