Il seems that when j. NJ Thurston re-
signed his position as attorney for the
Union Pacific Railroad company to take
his seat in the United States senate he
made a special agreement with the rail-
road company that he should receive a
special fee of S1,O08 in each case that he
should be called upon TO look after in
the supreme court. 1t is now reported
that he has already had twenty ght
cases in the supreme court. Some lnquIsi-
tive Bryanite has started the query
whether ii is worth more to be a railroad
attorney OUT of the senate at $4,000
year or to be in the senate minus a rail-
road salary and draw $4,000 as special
counsel.

make no further attacks upon the silver

TO BUY CHINO RANCHO.
Agents of an English Syndicate
Come for Final Settle.
ment.

GWilding and J. V. Gilmore, of London,
representing big English syndicate that
is making negotiations for the purchase OF
the Chino Rancho of 10000 acres in San
Bernardino County, arrived here yester-
day and are at the Palace.
The visit of these two men is for the pur-
pose of making final Investigation into the
title of the property, and is believed TO be
only a formality preparatory to the con-
summation of the sale of the extensive
estate.
Some little time ago the ranch was put
in charge of Easton & Eldridge of this
City, with directions to sell it, Shortly
after taking charge Mr.. Eldridge left for
Engl and, where he purposed to interest
English capital in the enterprise. The
price then understood was 81, 100000.
The return of Mr.. Eldridge and the pres
ence of these representatives OF an English
syndicate would indicate that the sale is
all but accomplished.
r The idea of the English purchasers is to
suboivide the ranch and to form a colony
of settlers that will be brought out from
England to develop the land.
Several hundred acres of the ranch have
for some time been devoted to the raising
of sugar beets a factory for the extraction
of beet sugar being located on the place.
1t is not, however, the intention of the
syndicate to buy the beet sugar industry
already in operation, but to extend the
cultivation of sugar beets throughout as
much of the section as is well suited to
that particular product.
If everything proves satisfactory the
EngEshmen will take possession at once,
paying the whole amount during the first
year. and not taking advantage of several
years originally suggested in the terms of
sale.

for irrigation purposes. The ditch is now,
and has been for years past, in litigation,
and the welfare and substantial interests
of our farmers have suffered and are now
suffering therefrom. Thousands upon
thousands of dollars, figuratively speak
ing, daily float down in the unused waters
of this stream.
1t is not often that the affairs of one
family so largely affect an extensive COM
munity. but in the case of the contentious
of the heirs of the late James Moore, for
mer owner of the Moore ditch, the mater
ial interests of thousands of people suffer.
When Mrs. Moore, wife of the late James
Moore, chose to remarry, her children
made desperate opposition. The old lady
was compelled to come into court and de-
fend herself against charge Of mental in
competency preferred by her children.
The effort to prove her irresponsible and
put her under guardianship failed and re-
suited only in intensifying the already
overheated feelings between mother and
children.
Having, after her marriage, relinquished
the control OF the ditch to her son Robert,
she instituted legal proceedings against
him to keep him off the ranch and OBJ

struct his work as manager OF the ditch.
The son sued his mother for $1,000. Pend
ing this litigation the court appointed
receiver to manage the ditcn. Subse-
quently the mother sued to have the re-
ceiver removed and herself reinstated as
manager OF the property. In answer koo-
ert set up that during the time his mother
managed the ditch, the two years before
her second marriage, she wantonly neg
lected the ditch with the avowed purpose
OF depreciatlng the value of the property
to the injury of the rights OF the Moore
children, and in violation OF the PROVISIONS
OF the will of the deceased James Moore.
The mothers petition to have the re-
ceiver removed was denied by the court,
and the Judge, in rendering his decision,
took occasion to say: at is to the interests
OF the mother to curtail the amount ex-
pended in repairs to the minimum limit
IN order to increase her annual income.
1t to the interest of her son Robert to
increase the amount expended In repairs
to the maximum limit IN order to make
the property more valuable. as he has an
interest in the remainder after her death.
The court is of the opinion that undet the
circumstances OF this mass of litigation,
and the peculiar relation existing between
the parties, it is best for the trust property
that their claims and management TO the
Woodland ditch be set aside and revoked,
and some d1slntereSted person be appointed
to assume full control and management
thereof"
At the present time the ditch is in a
deplorable condition and it is difficult to
understand how it is to be improved.
The dam was built by James Moore in
1881 at a cost of $4,000. Will the mother
rebuild it at cost of $35, 900 or 200
simply to increase the value of property
that is not hers? Will the children re-
build it SO long as the mother lives and re-
ceives the net income?
In view of all this, in view of the litiga-
tion that disrupts all peaceful relations
among the Moore heirs, the wretched con-
ditlon of the ditch property, the poor pros

So at last the two were married, and they

As they thought, equipped and ready, well

She had studied all the details, and, us
any one could see,
She could run his shop or office; and it
also seemed quite clear
She could act as his Eookkceper or could
serve as his cashier.
She could sell goods on commission, or
could buy on thirty days;
She was sharper than most merchants in
all proper business ways;
She could take" from his dictation, and

For the Couture.

The hair ornament most in favor at the
opera, and, indeed, for other evening occa-
sions now, is the white osprey aigrette
with the jeweled fastening mentioned. but
n more gracious effect even is to have the
fastening pair of soft crush roses in a
gray or delicate tone.
Sometimes the roses will be of white silk
and in the adjustment of the ornaments
they will be placed low at the left side of
the coiffure almost behind the ear.
If the wearer is a grand brunette with
inky locks the effect produced is delight
fully Spanish. For blonde heads there are
very pretty butterfly and bird wings in
gold and silver net. and young ladies are
much given TO simple bandeaux of white or
pink OF blue sd tin ribbon. with an aigrette
in the same tone, or else perky bow at
the side.

Marry n Fisher.

A man who is fond of fishing is worth
cultivating. 1t shows a contemplative
mind open TO convictions.
Remember that the bachelor who boasts
he has no small vices must needs be sus-
pected. for human nature is true to herself
and abhors a vacuum.
It's wise wife who cheerfully tolerates
a pipe; who only lifts her eyebrows at
muddy boots; who doesn't ridicule her huS-
bands clumsy efforts at carpentry mending
around the house; who often admits the
dogs to the sitting room and lets an coca
sional extra man friend in for dinner with
out rebuke OF apology.
These are little things, but they all go
toward keeping a cheerful husband inside
the garden gate and tend to firmly estab'
lish domestic serenity.
