Miss Ella Wolfe, the subject of
this sketch, was born in Harrison
county, West Virginia, January
18th, 1860. and died at the home
OF her father, g w. Wolfe, near
West Milford. West Virginia,
September 16, 1894.
She received her education at
the Academy and at Broaddus
College, at Clarksburg She
would have graduated at the lat
ter institutionin a few weeks had
not health failed, compelling her
to give up work for a time, AT
the age of eighteen she began
teaching and continued in the
profession till her death. All her
work as teacher, was done in
Harrison county where she was
well ana favorably known.
AS a daughter and sister she
was obedient and kind; as a
friend she was devoted and true !;
as a teacher she held her place
among the best in the State. She
was loved and respected by teach.
ers, patrons and pupils; as a
Christian she lived a consistent
life, her daily walks showing
more than her words that she had
been with Jesus.
From the beginning of her last
illness-an illness brought on, in
ministering to others-she was
impressed with the fact that she
must die and calmly set about
making preparation for her fun
eral, sending words of love and
admiration to her friends who
could not be with her in her dying
hour and in every way getting
ready for the end.
During her entire sickness
even when suffering intensely, al
every lucid interval she prayed
shouted, sang, and quoteGprom
ises from Gods word-promisel
from which she received comfort

REDLANDS.

The Bad State of Affairs of the Bear
Valley Company.
REDLANDs, Jan. 19.--Several mislead-
ing statements have been published re-
garding the possibility of recognizing
the Bear Valley company. The state
ment that James Gardner Clark has
been authorized by the British stock
holders to reorganize the company is far
overdrawn. While in limited sense
Mr.. Clark represents the English stock
holders, he is charged with no such
task as that outlined. Personally he lie
planning to bring about q reorganiza-
ton, and believes that if q business
proposition is presented to his constitu-
ents looking to reorganization they will
do their part. The plans of f. E. Brown,
of which have previously spoken, are
in the same line. But the opinion ia
growing that there is no possibility OF
either of these men accomplishing the
end sought. The impression that Mr..
CLARK seeks to establish John G. North
as general manager has deprived his
plan of the little hope it had of success,
Mr.. North having too many opponents
As a matter of fact, the affairs of the
company are in euch shape that they
almost preclude the possibility of any
plan of reorganization succeeding. The
company is so weighted with obligations
having no corresponding advantage,
that it would seem that the only outlook
is to let the plant pass through sher-
ifs sale, thereby freeing it from obliga-
hsnh nth ho
repudiated.
As an illustration, the company is
under obligations to furnish water fol
thousands of acres OF land az Moreno
and Perris, in addition to that now cup.
piled, and has not a drop of water with
which to keep it's obligations. The plan
was first to utilize the Whitewater fol
this purpose, and then it was found
after water had been pledged that q
mint of money would be required to put
the water on the land. II the company
is reorganized it will have to be on q
basis of nearly $6,000,000, instead Of
$4,000 900, as at present, and those who
are best acquainted with the plant and
most competent to reorganize the COM
pany, declare reorganization not feasible.
Of the nearly 100000 Indebtedness,
@5UU,UUU ID nelO by partleH IN OieV6lauui
O., and the bulk of the balance by the
British stockholders. 1t is presumed
here that the real intention of the for
eigners is to organize as creditors and
not as stockholders, and as such to bid
in the plant when it comes TO sale.
1t is also thought the Cleveland credit
ors will be prepared to bid for the
plant. 1t will practically take the first
million dollars bid to meet the direct
liabilities of the company, after which
it would take another million to pay
the stockholders % cents on the dollar.
Whatever the purchase price may be,
it will take another million at least to
develop the plant to its full capacity,
but there can be no doubt of the plant
paying good interest on 100000, il
managed on business principles.

TERMINAL ISLAND.

Large Catches OF sardines for the Fish
ery-Shell Hunters.
TERMINAL ISLAND, Jan. 20.-UnuHually
low tides have been the order this last
week, and the shell hunters had easy
work. 1t is an amusing sight TO the
''natives" to watch the shell gatherers
when they make find. A rare speci-
men is suddenly brought to view by the
action of the waves, and some female
ekirmisner, with yell and leap, is
upon it, and that specimen from the
realms Of McGinty is sent back east, or
to some home in the interior, and ls
used to point moral OF adorn tale.
A great variety of mollusks are found
here, and occasionally a specimen is
found which is new to the scientis ts.
Extreme low tide is the best time to
find them, and the rocks composing the
breakwater between Terminal and
Deadman's is che best place to hunt, as
this is their favorite ground.
The fishing feet will have large adj
dition made to it in the near future as
the capacity of the cannery here ia
enormous and it takes lots OF fish to
keep it running. There should be big
money in catching sardines, as one boat,
the Alpha, belonging to the fsh COM
pany and commanded by Captain Willy,
pulled in seven tons at one haul not
long ago. There ia no limit to the guam
tity of sardines that may be caught, the
supply seemingly being inexhaustible,
and it will be many years before there
will be any appreciable diminution in
the catch OF these delicious little fish.
HOLSTERS, smelt and other fab are also
canned, while mackerel, halibut, cod,
bass and other well-known food varie-
ties are cured and enter largely in the
output of the company. The fish. indus
try is destined for great things, and
when sufficient number of establish
ments are running to supply all our
markets it will be the Leaking industry
of Southern California.
The Terminal has been kept busy all
the week hauling coal and lumber to
Los Angeles.
Rev. and Mrs. Z. A. Healy and Pre-
siding Elder G.. w. and Mrs. White were
here Wednesday shell hunting.
Miss Fanny Courtney, Miss Hettie
Rice, Miss Grace Remington and Mr..
