SQUABBLiNG OVER WILLS.
The Contest for the Real Estate Left
by Mrs. Pratt.

Los ANGELES. Sept 2S.-The taking of
testimony in the Pratt will contest is
fraught with great difficulty. Every little
while an objection is sprung which brings
from one to ten of the lawyers in the case
to their feet aud a legal battle follows.
The jury was excused this morning to
discuss point and in the afternoon was
allowed to be present while point was
discussed.
There were some interesting matters
presen ed by the contestant to-day, the
principal thing being an offer to prove that
Mrs. Annie Pratt made will in 1884,
which revoked the will of 1881. and as
COUNSEL commended, buried it too deep for
the cndicil of 1885 ever TO revive it.
General Mansfield testified that the will
presented for probate was given to him
years ago. Mrs. Pratt died in his house
and after a thorough search of her effects
he was unable to find any other will than
the one offered for probate.
Charles Mansfield, son of General Mans
field, and Mrs. John Mansfield, also testl-
fed TO the same effect.
Mrs. Lucy GoOdspeed of San Francisco
testified that she knew of no will other
than the one offered for probate. A con-
troversy arose between Attorneys Silent
and White when Attorney Hanlon of San
Francisco was asked il in 1884 he attested
a document for Mrs. Pratt, and as there
was a long discussion raised on the ground
that it was an attempt t. prove lost will.
Judge Clark adjourned court until Tues

There are some radical errors in the FORE

formerly belonged to Lieutenant Casey
arrived yesterday at San Pedro. but il was
not shipped to Miss Hunt. In fact, there
is no Colonel Hunt of the United Suites
army living in or near Los Angeles. The
horse was really sent here by Colonel
Swaine CT Fort KeogiI. Mont. He is to be
retired in January, and will come here 10

been driven in double team by the colonel

troubles with the Northern Industrial

NAPA'S GRAPE HARVEST.
There Is Very Small and Inferior
Crop.

RUTHERFORD, Sept. 2S.-The grape har-
vest is low in full BIAS, but this seasons
crop is very unsatisfactory both as to guam
tity and quality of grapes. The raw ges
of the frosts, followed by blight, milde w,
the excessive heat of the past few weeks
and the non-maturng of large percent
age of the fruit on account of the phyllox-
era pest, have al resulted, as was feared

feTior crop, insomuch so that 100000 GAL
Ions of wine will about represent the
product of Napa Valleys vineyards.
Prices of grapes range from 81 to $12
per ton. the latter price obtainable only for
hill products. The syndicate cellar in St.
Helena desires COCO tons of grapes, but
they may not be able to get more than half
that amount. The prices paid for grapes,
as comrared with the figures offered for
sound wines. give faint hope for a near
advance In the value of the latter.

COLUMBUS OF THE PACIFIC.
An Heroic Figure Who Is Tardily
Receiving Justice,

Cabrlllo, as time goes on, is gaining de-
served recognition for his deeds. He was
the Columbus of the Pacific Coast. He
was the discoverer of this fair land, the
first navigator ana adventurer who had the
temeriiy to push north into what was a
terra incognita. Cabr.llo is an heroic fig
ure and is receiving tardy justice. He was
more than an sdventurer, and his expedi-
ton was carried on to iurtherthe extern
sion of knowledge and especially to obtain
information regarding the geography of
the region 10 the north, at the same time
10 add to the conquests and possessions of
Spain.
Cabrillo was the first to meet the natives
OF California, and his treatment of them
is in marked contrast to that of other ex-
plorers of the time. Csbrillo, whose full
name was Juan Rodriguez, sailed on the
2Sth day of June. 1912. from Navida. a
little port on the Mexican coast, about
3l5 miles north of Acapulco. He had Two

port being good they suffered nothing. 1t

west and south-southwest."
Around Goletta they found many Indian
villages, and Ferello noted their names.
some of which were Cincut, Anacot, Nocos.
Yutum. QuimaD, Gsromisopona. etc. The
towns were governed by an old Indian
woman, who was a princess, who visited
the ships and remained with them several
days. One village. Cincut. was the capt.
tai of the rest. The houses were well made
and covered down TO the ground. The
people dressed in skins of animals and had
meat and fish for food; also acorns and a
kind OF white maize, which they made in 10
"dumpliugs."
These towns were between Santa Bar
bara and San Luis Obispo, and from the
various localities thousands of articles in
stone, wood aud shell have been taken by
collectors, one of the finest collections
being In the National Museum.

Government, asking that they erect mon

Spanish did not respond and tbs great
discoverer is still without any substantial
recognition.
