that he would not furnish water during
the summer at the summer rates fixed
by the same body-16 cents per inch for
"a hours run. Even a delay in bringing
the case to a conclusion until after the
dry season was over would work incai-
culable injury to the whole valley. 1t
would destroy many orchards and alfal-
ia fields entirely, unless, perchance, the
court should order the water served to
the people at the rates fixed by the
board during the continuance of the suit.
The county will have to defend the suit.

REDLANDS, March 26-(Regular
Correspondence.) The proposed extern
sion of State street through the Barton
tract met an unexpected obstruction to-
day in the action of a Mr. Larrabee, VINO
owns the first lot adjoining State street
of the proposed extension, and who has
erected a fence, barricaded with wire
and powders, and put up sign,
CLOSED No trespassing," evidently in
tending to dispute any passing along the
street. Mr.. Larrabee stated that he has
been offered only $40 for a right of way
along his property, which he considers TO
be worth 5000, and that he proposes to
contest the proposed extension until he
Is paid his price. This Is matter which
has been pending for three or four years,
and has caused great deal Of conten-
tion and i'll feeling at different times,
owing to the opposition of different prop
erty holders to the proposed improve
ment, which is one very generally de-
sired by the public. A commission was
appointed to assess damages and bene-
fits, and 1t was supposed that all rights
of way had been secured in accordance
with it's report. The city has already
spent several hundred dollars in grad
ing and filling in and in protecting the
proposed road from the incursion of
the storm water that rushes down the
Mill creek zanja in periods of storm, and
it remains to be seen whether Mr. Lar
rabee's action will block the proposed ex-
tension for any length of time.

With a better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated condi-
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, andis
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur.
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
anG The system is regular laxatlves or
ether remedies are then not needed. Ii
afflicted with any actual disease, one

physicians, but if in need of laxative,
one should have the best, and with taes
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

In the first place the exhibit is sure
to be the finest and the races the best
that will be seen in the State. Sec
ondly, the entire absence of the ven
ders, fakirs, gamblers and the usual
clap.trap, generally attending fairs,
will render il the cleanest of the kind
in all New England This last, Of
itself, is a recommendation of the
highest order. This year, in every
respect, the Fair will be fully up to
the high standard established through
a long series of successes and will
deserve the large patronage that it is
sure to receive. The coaching parade,
that should not be missed, will come
off on the second day.

Dancers Must Pay the Fiddler.

Friday towards night U. S. Mar
shal Harris of Bennington arrived in
town and shortly after the arrival of
the stage Frank and John Emerson
were taken into his custody and i'm
mediately started for Burlington to
be arraigued before commissioner
johnson on charge of selling liquor
without license. Before the com
missioner on Saturday examination
was waived and bail entered for ap.
pearance before the U. S. court. AS
both men pleaded guilty, a few
months ago, to selling liquor and
were fined therefor it is not probable
that they will escape heavy fine and
their last state will be worse than the
first. AS you sow so shall you reap
and the harvest is sure to come soon
er or later.
