Expert Opinion of the Orange Trees
Local News.

RIVERSIDE, Nov. 4.-Prof. c. L.
Marlatt, entomologlst in the depart
ment of agriculture at Washington, was
in Riverside Sunday and was shown
about the valley by Horticultural Com
missioner F. G. Havens. He unhesitat-
ingly declared that the orange trees here
were the finest he ever saw. He came
with the mistaken idea that the people
here were compelled to fight scalebugs
the year around in order to raise any
fruit, but he found the trees clean and
thrifty.
Supervisor J. L. Edmiston has re-
turned from his vacation at Anaheim.

HIGHBINDERS AT CHICAGO
Terrorize the Chinese Colony 10 the
Windy City
A Case In Court Exposes Corrupt
Practices-Confident Officers
Make Promises

CHICAGO, Nov. At Is thought at
the central police station the Chinese
highbinders' feud which has terrorized
San Francisco has reached Chicago. and
Inspector Fitzpatrick is taking action
to suppress promptly any trouble which
NAV arise among the 1900 subjects Of tn.
emperor of China who live in Chicago.
Several days ago a Chinaman named
Hong Gee Tong applied to Justice I'm
derwood for a warrant for the arrest OF
Ilo Woy, who had, SO Tong said, en-
bezzled some money from the latter two
years ago. Without inquiring into the
merits of the case, Justice Underwood
issued the warrant and Woy was ar
rested and taken to the central station.
He declared that he was victim of the
highbinders. According to Woy's story
he left Chicago two years ago and went
to Pittsburg, where he opened laun-
dry. He made money and some days ago
he started to return to China and get
married. The highbinders, he says,
concluded he knew too much of their
methods to go home and tell of them,
especially as the emperor had announced
his intention of beheading all relatives
of highbinders in China. They sent
Tong to Chicago, he says, to have him
arrested, and think he is now prevented
from going home.
'"This case will have to be investigated
by the court" said Inspector Fitzpat-
rick, but I think the Chinaman is tell
ing the truth, and If find there are any
hghbinders here they will have to get
out of town."
Sam Moy, the well-known Chinaman
of this city, had meanwhile gone to JUS
tice Rhodes court and sworn out war
rants charging Ho Woy with larceny as
bailee.
A constable appeared with warrant,
but Captain Kock would not allow him
to serve it until he had communicated
with Inspector Fitzpa trick The latter
had all the parties brought before him
and as the constable had a warrant, he
was forced to allow him to serve it.
Captain Kock declared he would
make things unpleasant for the Chinese
who were prosecuting Woy.

Election Bets

For the past month all the men about town have been
stipulating that all Hat bets be paid at DESMOND'S
No. 141 S. Spring st, in the Bryson Block. The
balance of quality and value is all on the side of his
hats. DESMOND is and always has been the halter
of those who wear high grade goods. He has the
correct shapes and nothing but the correct shapes
What's more everything he shows is presented in the
very best qualities such as Dunlaps Stetsons and all
the other leading makes. His hats have reputation,
they are known and wherever known are reckoned as
unexceled and the best hats in Los Angeles to give
or take for an ELECTION BET.

GERMAN EXPRESSION.
Goldbugs are Glad, Bimetallists Sad,
but Still Determined.

BERLIN, Nov. 4.-The result of the
election in the United States was re-
ceived throughout Germany with great
satisfaction, except by the bimetallists.
A high official of the foreign office said:
THE government is pleased with the
result, and congratulates the American
people on ridding themselves for good
of an incubus and danger of financial
upheaval which would follow the un-
settling of the currency. All the civil
lied nations will profit by the out
come of the election, especially Ger
many, owing to the intimate and i'm
portant commercial and economic rela-
tions with the United States"
DR.. Otto Arendt, editor of the Deutsche
Woche nschrift and prominent bimet-
allist leader, in an editorial, said: Il
have heard the news with unfeigned sor-
row. The defeat of the silver move
ment in the United States will undoubt-
edly react unfavorably upon the BIZ
metallic movement in Germany and
the rest of Europe. Still I do not de-
spair. 1t will not be long deferred"

A POISONED CAT.
Made the Basis Of a Felony Complaint
in the Police Court

Trouble is rife among the denizens of
the classic precincts of Lyon street,
down near the gas works. Deputy Con-
stable Mugnemi yesterday arrested and
brought into court one P. Ferrara, living
at S02 Lyon street, who was charged by
Mrs. Ynez Gotta de Lyons, his next-door
neighbor with the felonious act OF pois-
oning her pet cat.
Under the state law this is felony,
punishable with imprisonment in the
penitentiary. Ferrara was arraigned
and had his examination set for the 10th
at 10 a. m. In the meantime he was re-
leased on his own recognizance, as the
affair seems to be but the outcome of a
neighborhood row,

X RAYS IN CONSUMPTION.

-
A number of well-known physicians
of Chicago have been treating an almost
hopeless case of consumption with dl'
rect application of X rays through the
lungs. saws the Electrical Engineer, and
although they are not prepared to state
positively that the disease has finally
found its cure, some of them are forced
TO the conclusion that the result has
been wonderful. One signs his name
to the declaration that the effects 80
far are but little short of the marvel
ous.n They are all conservative. They
speak only of the changes actually re-
corded and waive final judgment unit!
the patient shall have been subjected
to the new discovery for second period
of FIVE weeks.
Professor H. P. Pratt, who carried on
the Grst experiment with Professor
Huge Wightman, prepared his electrical
apparatus and his special Crookes tubes
for the application. The patient, whose
face was withered and full of wrinkles,
came into the labratory supported by
his mother. His temperature was 1O33.
pulse 100, respiration 81. His chest was
barred, the tube placed in direct contact
with the flesh. The exposure was for
three hours. At the end there was a
decrease of two degrees in temperature,
the pulse leaped to 120 and the respira-
tion fell to %. This record was made
in the presence of several physicians,
and the boy was allowed to go home
with no other remedies than such slim
u'ants as would have been given to all
patients under the same circumstances.
With subsequent treatments con-
tinual improvement has taken place
during five weeks. Signed statements
of the doctors who have attended the
treatment of the young man are pub
lished in the Chicago Times. Herald.
If the apparently successful results
here recorded are due to other cause
than the effects of Imagination, which
psychologists have shown are capable
of producing most wonderful changes
in pathological conditions, they may,
perhaps, find an explanation in sug-
gestion advanced by Mr.. Edison some
time ago. Assuming, he said, that the
X rays are analogous to the ultraviolet
rays of ordinary light, which, it is
known, are destructive to bacteria
generally, we have in them germici-
dial agent which is capable of passing
through the flesh and acting directly on
the diseased organs.

A GREAT HISTORIC TABLET.

Last winter / was permitted to exca-
vate along part of the ruin strewn
desert at Thebes, and to examine the
sites of temples which stand there. On
these few furlongs found that there
had been seven temples of the kings of
the eighteenth and nineteenth dynas-
ties, about 1450.1150 B. c. Most of these
| entirely cleared out; the largest piece
Of all-the great buildings around the
RAnmeseum-heingt the clearance of the
Egyptian research account worked by
Mr.. Quibell Each site gave us some
return in information or objects; but
the most valuable of the sites, as it
proved, was one of the least inviting. A
field OF stoue chips showed where the
funeral temple OF Merenptah had stood;
and, left in the ruins, | found the great
granite tablet bearing the long inscrip-
tion of Merenptah about his Libyan
war and his Syrian war and naming
Israel.
The tablet is over ten feet high, over
five feet wide, and over a foot thick, OF
one Aawless block of very fine grained
granite, or rather, syenite. 1t was first
cut by one of the most sumptuous kings
Of Egypt, Amenhotep Ill; brilliantly
polished, as fiat and CLASSY as mirror,
and engraved with scene of the king
offering to Amen the god OF Thebes, and
an inscription of about three thousand
hieroglyphics recording his offeringsand
slorifying the god. His son Akheate, who
strove after higher faith, erased all fig
ures and inscriptions of Amen, and so
etlaced most of his fathers fine cary
ing on this great tablet. This, how
ever, was all reengraved by Seti |,
about fifty gears later, as restoration.
Theu, some two centuries after it had
been erected in the temple Of Amenho-
tep HI. Merenptah cast in envious gaze
on the splendid stone and stole it for
his own purpose.
Not taking the trouble to rework it,
he simply built the face Of it into his
own wall, and engraved on the COM
paraivelv rough back of the block.
At the top he figured scene of the
king offering to Amen and below an
inscription very near as large as that OF
Amenotep III on the other side. The
painting of the sculptured figures still
remains as fresh as on the day it was
done; for as the tablet fell face forward
when the temple was destroyed the
side belonging to Merenptah lay down
ward while that of Amenhotep III was
uppermost. In the ruins then amid the
fragments of columns and foundations
heaped over with foot or two of stone
chips this grand block had lain since
about the time of the Trojan war. All
Greek history, Roman and medieval
the prophets, Christianity and Islam
nave swept along while this was wait
ing unsupported with its story of the
wars of Pharaoh of the Hard Heart
and his crushing of Israel.-Prof. Film
dcrs Petrie IN The Century.
