Obituary.

Jesse Wilson Rees, son of J. w. and
L. G. Rees, was born March IA, 1889,
and died March II, 1897, aged Z years
II months and q days. Just one year
before his death he was seriously in
jured by falling down the stairs, and
although he had apparentlyrec recovered,i ii
seems quite certain that bis final illness
was the result of that fall. Little Jesse
was dearly beloved by bis father
mother, brother, sister and all who
knew him, for he was, indeed, pei
with everyone, being admired for his
friendly disposition, his wit and cheer
full turn of mind. What q meeting in
Heaven this morning with little Jesse
Grandma, Aunt Ellen and little
Emma, all OF whom have died ON The
same farm within the last eigh1
months. A FRIEND.
Thy gentle voice now is hushed,
Thy warm, true heart is still,
And on thy young and innocent brow
Is resting deaths cold chill.
Thy hands are clasped upon thy breast,
We have kissed thy lovely brow,
And in our aching hearts we know
We have no darling now.
Farewell, little Bud of Hope,
Sweet peace around thee dwell;
With Heavens joys may thou be blest,-
And now a kind farewell.

A Pet Wolf.

NJ. De Candolle, the great French
naturalist, tells remarkable story
about a pet wolf. A lady had owned the
wolf from the time when it was cub
so small that it could be carried in the
pocket Of an overcoat. By the time it
was three years old, it was more at
tached to her than a spaniel would have
been. Once she was absent on a visit
for six weeks. From the first night,
the wolf evinced the greatest distress,
and during the whole of the time re-
:nained cross and detected. During the
last week, he absolutely refused to taste
food of any kind. On her return, as
soon as the wolf heard her footsteps.
he bounded into the room in an ecstasy
of delight. Springing up. he placed a
paw on each of her shoulders, and then
looking into her face, as If to ,-eassure
himself that it was truly his beloved
mistress, he fell back and instantly ex-
pired. n. De Candolle assures us that
the wolf died OF ioy.-Goden Day~

"The San Frsncico Wave" tells story
of a judge on the Pacific Coast, noted
for his tendency to explain things to his
juries, who expressed in recent case
his own ideas with such force that he
thought it almost unnecessary for the
jurors to leave the box. They did leave
it, however, and were out hours. In.
quiring the trouble, the Judge was told
one of the twelve was standing out
against the eleven. He summoned the
jury and rebuked the erecalcitrant sharply.
"Your Honor" said the juror, "may
say word ?" eyes, sir" said the indig-
nant Judge; "what have you to say ?"
"Well what I wanted to say is, I'm the
only fellow that's on your side."

Tariff for the Farmer.

1t is often asked what benefit tariff
affords the farmer? Gen. Grosvenor in
his recent able speech in Congress, thus
explains it:
"We believe that the farmers on the
mighty farms of the West and on the
alluvial soil of the South and every where
will be benefited by this bill. Ignorance
comes and says, what good does it do to
put a duty on farm products submit

The third week out we had storm

strained, but still she rode the waves

SUPREME COURT
Decisions of Interest to Southern
Californians

SAN FRANCISCO, April 20.-The
writ of mandate of the Teralta Land and
Water company against e. E. Shafter,
county auditor of San Diego, was sus-
tained by the supreme court today. Ger
tain lands of the Teralta company in
San Diego county were sold for delin-
quent state and county taxes and pur-
chased by the state. On September rs,
1895, the company desired to redeem the
land and asked the county auditor to
figure up the amount of the delinquent
taxes and added penalties. He did so
under the act of 1885, instead of under
the law in force in 1889, when the taxes
first became delinquent and the land
was sold. Under the law of 1895 the pen
alties are greater than undsr the act in
force in 1889. The company mandamused
the auditor to fix the penalties under the
old law. The lower court ordered him to
do so on the ground that the act of 1895
was not retroactive and could not be
made so. He appealed from this de-
cision. The supreme court sustained the
decision of the lower court.
The supreme court today affirmed the
judgment of the lower court of Los An
geles which directed Hannah T. and J.

BOOKED FOR ARSON
Collum Concludes to Return to Stand
Trial

SAN FRANCISCO, April 20-Phillip
Collum was today arrested by Detective
Anthony and booked at the city prison
for arson, en- route to Woodland, Yolo
county. In January, 1886 the woolen
mills OF Shepherd & Collum at Woodland
were burned. The fire, it is said, was of
incendiary origin. 1t was suspected that
the proprietors of the mills had set the
fire for the purpose of getting the in
surance money. After a long investiga-
ton by the police both Shepherd and
Collum were arrested and charged with
arson. They were released on bonds,
and when their trial came on last No
vember Collum failed to appear. He
wrote letter to his attorney, post
marked from a. New England town, in
which he said he would be unable to at
tend the trial because of the serious ILL.,
ness of his father. His bond was for
feited and bench warrant for his arrest
issued. Shepherd went to trial and was
acquitted. CoMum says he has just
come from the east and was on his way
to Woodland when arrested. He had de-
cided to return and stand trial.
