At last successful electric omnibus
has been perfected. The vehicle was
given t:ial in London recently and
its Performance Is said to have been
satisfactory in every respect. Starting
with load Of % passengers, route
was selected through some Of the most
crowded thoroughfarcs of the metropo.
lis, all of which were traversed with
less difficulty than is experienced with
horses. The omnibus will travel 40
miles without recharging. BY the end
of the present year it is believed the
cab and bus horse will have disap-
peared, for cabs constructed on the
same principle will soon be in use.

The government report Of the wheat
crop for 1896 contains some figures in
teresting TO western producers. The
total wheat crop for the United States
last year was 4s7, 6s4, 900 bushels. This
fell but little below the crops Of 1894
and 1895, and was considerably larger
than that Of 1893. In spite of this fact
the average farm price of wheat per
bushel was 7a.6 cents for 1896. In 1895
the average farm price was 500 cents
per bushel, and in 1894 only 4o.1 cents,
the lowest figure since the rebellion.
Even in 1898, when the crop IVES the
smallest since 1885, the average farm
price was only 5S.s cents per bushel.

Outfit at Victoria

To the Editor of the Los Angeles Her
aid: AS matter of information to the
thousands of your state who may be at
tracted to the Klondyke by it's fabulous
wealth, and who will journey west in
the same blind and ignorant manner that
thousands have who are en- route, I de-
sire to supply you with few hints of ad-
vice worthy of careful consdera ton.
The entire Klondyke region Is in Cana
dian territory and consequently subject
to the laws and regulations OF tas Do
minion government. In the mad rush to
reach the new Eldorado the venturesome
and prospective Argonauts gave this
matter little or no thought and conse-
quently they are and will be subjected
to consequent hardships. Of the three
thousand at present camped at Skagway
and Dyea or struggling to cross the bliz-
zard pass, fully three-fourths have
American outfits upon which duty is col
lectible and in many instances the indi-
vidual has not the money with which to
meet the customs For weeks have re-
quested the daily press and telegraph
service of this city to acquaint their
readers with the exact facts, but to no
avail, and no doubt there are still hun
dreds en- route who will be subjected to
the same hardships. These suppressed
facts have proved of financial benefit to
the merchants of this city, who even to-
day deny to purchasers that duty will be
collected, and thereby add to the distress
already known to exist. The entire Can
adian border is guarded by mounted DO
lice wherever passable to prevent the
flooding OF Canada with American goods
free from duty, and thousands of pounds
upon which the owners cannot pay will
be confiscated.
To save unnecessary delay, annoy
ances and money, those contemplating
the trip should outfit in Victoria, the
capital of British Columbia, where the
customs officers pass upon the goods and
they are bonded to the Yukon direct.
The present privations would not exist
had these facts been shown to the public
and would-be Argonauts given sufficient
time to deliberate but misery should
not be increased by a continued silence
on the subject, and your readers should
be acquainted with the exact facts as
they exist. w. r. DALEY.

Honest But shrewd Yankee

There is funny case of international
honesty down i'm Arizona, just on the line
between that territory and Mexico. A
Yankee farmer lives there, ONE Amasa
Barrow by Eame, and it is his business
to raise chickens. Chicken feed is cheap
in Mexico, and chickens bring fine prices
in Arizona. But to raise chickens in
Mexico and bring them across the boun-
Diary, or to buy the feed and bring it
across would involve the payment of
considerable duty, which would eat the
profits about as fast as the hens could
eat the corn. AS for smuggling that was
not to be thought of.
Amasa is a Yankee and so honest that
his neighbors say he wouldn't take ad-
vantage of man in horse trade. But
he is also full of Yankee ingenuity and
after deep cogitation he built long,
slim hencoop, one half of it in Arizona
and the other in Mexico. On the line
there is gate. Over the line there are
barns containing feed. At feeding time
the gate is opened and the chicken fan
cier Shoes his flock into Mexico, where
they eat their meal. Then he Shoes them
back to the protection of the American
flag, where they digest this Mexican
grain, lay their eggs and carry ON their
family affairs. Mr.. Barrows saves about
SO per cent on grain, and makes that
much on his chickens, and if there is
any. smuggling done 1t is done by the ils-
nocent and irresponsible biddies-

But Wasn't Sure He Liked It

He was old and bent and walked with

for several minutes in a Grand averue

long foamy drink was drawn from the

lump of frozen stuff. The old mar
watched every movement of the mix
er and of the drinker until the last q; OF
disappeared. Ther he smiled.
Yer might make NE one o them there
drinks" he said
AS it was handed him few moments
later he gaeeG, at it with the expression of
one looking al some new invention. Then
he took a spoonful of the frozen mixture
which floated on top.
It's purity durned cold, aint it?" he
said, looking around with half silly eX-
preston on. his face. No one answered.
Then he resumed his eating. AT last
the cold stuff had all disappeared
"Hev yer got any of Dr. Blank 8 family
medicine?" he Inquired of the drug
giSt.
I'VE have, sir"
well, let me have a small size"
He paid for the yellow package and
started out. AS he neared the door he
turned around.
Tibet froz. stuff won't hurt me none,
will it?"
NO" said the druggist.
well, yer see, it's the first time ever
tackled it, an I jest wanted to be shore
about it."
