the writer to the sterling qualities and
public spirit Of Mr.. Iribarne. regardless
Of his protest against its publication.
Solomon's characteristic of righteous
man"-that "even his enemies are at
peace with him"-surely applies to the
subject Of this sketch, for all who thor
oughly know him speak we'll Of hing.
Mr.. Iribarne was born In New York in
1851. while his parents were en- route
from Southern France to California
When six years old he was sent to
France to be educated and prepared for
the priesthood, which was the fond am
bition Of his parents, but before his eight
years education had expired young
Iribarne showed remarkable aptitude
for business, so that after completing
his studies with business course he
returned to his parents in. Calaveras
county, determined to engage in busi-
ness pursuits. In 1876, when % years
old. he engaged in mercantile business
with his father at Merced. In 1884 he
removed to Sumner, now Kern City,
where he was engaged in business until
1886, when he removed to Tehachapi,
where he has since resided and been
actively engaged in various business en-
terprises. He has by integrity, business
sagacity and the "bon homme" charac-
teristic Of the highest type Of French
and French-Americans, achieved great
success and made a host of friends with
al. He built the first warehouse in
Tehachapi, in which he still has an in
terest. He is also owner of the leading
hotel, the Little Pi-Ute, besides lands
and mining claims in the vicinity. His
residence, built in 1890, is one of the
most costly and best appointed in
Tehachapi, and is presided over by one
of the most amiable and intelligent

zona.
The above company has a lease on
practically a mountain of granite OF
splendid grain and we'll adapted for
building purposes. 1t is situated adjoin-
ing the lime quarries. Los Angeles arch
itects and builders should investigate its
merits. There is also a considerable
quantity of sandstone in this district
that is said to be good for building pur-
poses.
Messrs. Jameson & Mathews, Tehach-
api, own $40 acres of valuable lime rock
situated two miles east of town and half
a mile from the railroad. Experts who
have analyzed the rock pronounce it to
be 95 per cent pure. There is a mountain
Of it and sufficient to supply the whole
state for many years to come.
THE WHEAT OUTLOOK
As stated before, Techachapi wheat
ranks among the best grades produced
In the United States. 1t is special fa-
vorite with millers and commands the
highest market price. Six years ago,
when the wheat market was at its zenith
about twelve million pounds Of wheat
was produced on this plateau, since
which time, owing to the decreasing
price, the product has steadily declined
involume until the season Of 1867, when
the crop aggregated 100000 pounds,
Notwithstanding the almost entire alb
sence Of spring rains. Owing to the
certainty Of good prices for next sea-
son lands adapted to wheat culture are
assiduously sought after in the south

A WAR OF TWO BROTHERS
The Angleys Sacrificed Their Fruit
Business for Revenge

The troubles Of Michael and Patrick
Angley might form an additional act to
that good old Bowery melodrama.
Brother Against Brother" Certainly
the parts played by the brothers Angley
interested big crowd Friday afternoon.
Two months ago these brothers rented
four one-story frame houses near the
corner of One Hundred and Second
street and Fifth avenue and there es-
tablished fruit stand and headquarters
for peddlers. For time busin ness
thrived like the traditional green bay
tree.
Prosperity, our masters say, some
times begets selfishness. 1t happened a
few days ago that the Angleys quarreled,
each alleging that the other was looking
for too much of the profits. Peace after
wards was not expected by either, for
these brothers are proud of hot tempers
aud scorn forgiveness.
Each settled down to game of STRAIT
egy and Friday morning Michael ap-
peared with a party of his countrymen
at his heels and a bit Of white paper in
his hands. He shook the paper in his
brothers face and yelled:
Get out of there and move quick"
"Why will I get out?" asked Patrick,
calmly.
Because I am going to tear down the
buildings" said Michael, aiding: Il have
an order from the owner, Mrs. Cold
man."
He kept on waving the paper and Pat
rick became angry. He rushed toward
Michael but stopped short when the
latter's retainers moved up as in battle
array. An idea came to Patrick. Twenty
men could whip four, he thought, and,
believing, hurried away. The work of
tearing down the house was we'll on
when he returned with a picked army
of friends. The invading and Destroy
ing forces were overwhelmed, and after
being turned out Of the buildings were
mopped about the pavement.
Doubtless the ambulances would have
been called if Michael Angley had not
ordered a retreat His men were glad to
run, while their commanding officer
thought about the situation some more
"a process which resulted in his ap-
pearance at the police station with a
demand for police protection.
To the sergeant Michael said that,
upon complaint, the board Of health had
ordered the owner to tear down the
buildings. Four policemen, with Michael
at their head and his retainers in the
rear, marched upon Patrick's position
and found it evacuated.
Patrick's army had retired discreetly
at sight of the bluecoats. From the
other sidewalk they watched the contin-
ued destruction of the buildings.
And all the time a crowd watched and
cheered impartially the battle Of the
brothers.-New York World.

the Compromise group on the north, or
about three and one-half miles south Of
town. The Uncle Same mine proper is
worked through two tunnels 300 feet long
and 100 feet apart. The tunnels are
thoroughly opened and connected by
wines showing about 5000 tons of ore
in sight, which mills averaging IS per
ton. There is a Briggs mill on the
ground, capacity 10 tons in "a hours, the
expense Of milling, with water and wood
in abundance, being only $3.50 per ton.
There is concentrator in connection

this district.
LIME AND BUILDING STONE
The Union Lime company of Los An
geles and San Francisco own one of the
largest and best properties in California
about three and a half miles south by
east from Tehachapi. There is noun
tain Of it, and it was an interesting sight
to the writer looking at the quarrying
and lime burning at that point One of
the best appointed lime kilns, or group
of them, on the coast is in operation
here day and night all the year round.
Frank Meehan, the superintendent, in
formed the writer that $4,000 barrels Of
lime was shipped in, 1896. and in 1897 the
aggregate will reach $4,000 barrels. In
1896 there was used as fuel for the lime
kilns 1900 cords of wood and this year it
will reach 5000 cords. The Los Angeles

Grain, Hay, Vegetable, Cattle and Sheep Products
and Mineral Resources

The principal productions at present
are wheat, Tehachapfs pride and great
staple, barley, wheat and barley hay;
also potatoes and other vegetables. The
stock interests are Important, over 100,-
600 head Of sheep and 1000 head Of cat
tie being raised annually, among the
large purchasers of which are Simon
Mailer and L. Sentous, the well-known
wholesale butchers of Los Angeles.
Poultry raising is also an important in
dustry, especially turkeys.
The mineral resources Of this district
are extensive and valuable, comprising
quartz gold and silver mining, placer
mining, lime, granite, sandstone and
many others, all of which are referred
to In detail elsewhere. The mineral re-
sources are as yet barely touched, and
Southern California capitalists will find
this virgin field, but most valuable
one, nevertheless, for investment
The oak and pine supply in the
Tehaohapl mountains is immense and
ample for domestic, manufacturing and
mining needs for a great many years to
come, furnishing a cheap and satisfac-
tory fuel for all purposes. Oak wood is
delivered free on board cars at Tehach-
api for 50 per cord, and pine wood for 81

AS stated in the Introductory, there is
splendid opening in this district for
the investment Of capital, also for pros

There is an abundance of water and
cheap fuel in the district, wood being

The celebrated Amelia gold and silver
quartz mine is distant only 18 to 20
miles from Tehachapi by trail road
which the board of supervisors contem-

if the people of Tehachapi will share in
the expense. The le6ges range from
eight inches to two feet and the ore from
$50 to $4,000. One and half miles of
underground work has been done. The
hosting works have capacity Of 1000
feet, but 400 feet is the maximum depth
of shafts as yet. There is a good camp,

Three miles south Of town Messrs.
Holman, Black & Co. are operating a
thirty-foot shaft and drift therefrom to
catch an underground channel, where,
1t is expected, large body of placer will
be found. Four men are taking out on
an average of four ounces of gold per
week. This is in the vicinity of China

The Mount Morgan, Australia, is the greatest gold mine in the world. It was bought about twelve years ago for SSll5, and since then S75, ,000, 900 has been refused for the mine and works. The most recent report of the con- psny, to hand for the calendar year 1896, states that the second, third and fourth sections of the new reduction works, which will be capable of treat ing 100, 900 tons of low grade ore per anRHm, will he completed in January, 1898. A plant for treating the mundic ore is being designed, and it will be able to treat ore yielding dwt. to the ton at profit. The report says that since the opening of the new reduction works large bodies of hitherto unpsy- able ores had been able to be treated profitably. The removal of this ore has revealed the existence of immense bodies of payable orc.

 There is one medicine which every family should be provided with. We refer to Chamberlain's Pain Balm. When it Is kept at hand the severe pain of a burn or scald may be promptly relieved and the sore healed in much less time than when medicine has to be sent for. A sprain may be promptly treated before inflammation sets in, which insures a cure in about one-third the time otherwise required. Cuts and bruises should receive im- mediate attention before the parts be. come swollen, and when Chamber lain's Pain Balm is applied it will heal them without matter being formed and without leaving scar. A sore throat may be cured in one night. A piece of flannel dampened with this Eminent and bound on over the seat of pain will cure lame back or pain in the side or chest in 24 hours. It is the most valuable, however, for rheuma- tism. Persons afflicted with this dis ease will be delighted with the prompt relief from pain which it affords, and it can be depended upon to effect a complete cure. For sale by H. c. Hitchcock, druggist.
