Cadiz Fleet Held in Reserve.

Gibraltar, June s.-Spain's reserve
squadron has not yet left Cadiz, and
may not get away for some time to
come. Fear of revolt in southern prov
inces, ii is said. is the reason for the

of the people. and the distress Is becom-
ing more acute every day. 1t is thought

United States Mail Protectors.

The United States government Is
sometimes served for years by valuable
servants who are not even boarded at
the expense of the government. THESE
servants are cats. Rats are one OF the
persistent dangers that threaten the
United States mail. They destroy the
bags and the mail matter. The postoffice
building in New York city is large
building and now many years old. 1t Is
said that there are go cats in the build
ing cared for by the clerks. Some OF the
cats have never lived anywhere else |;
Others have come in from the neighbor-
hood. The cats who have known only
this home are very shy of strangers and
will come only to the clerks in the
building. So you see that the govern
ment is served without pay by these
faithful servants who prevent the de-
struction by rats of valuable property
and all that is given them is shelter

FRUIT SEASON JUST ENDED.
ITS OUTPUT EXCEEDED ONLY
BY THAT OF 1897.
annual Report Of President Vein
stock Of the Eruit-Growers
fge+ Association.

Despite all the grumbling and dis
content expressed during the year
epout Its being such a disastrous one,
trom froStS and drouth, for the fru1t-
growers, the fact is that there never
was so much deciduous fruit shipped
10 the East in any season except 1881
and the difference between the output
OF this year and last was but 3lo car
loads
The 1897 shipments amounted to
pos carloads, against 5,O0I this year.
These figures are up to December ISL.
REVIEW OF THE YEAR.
Following is the annual report OF
President H. Weinstock Of the Califor-
mia Fruit-Growers' and Shippers Asso-
citation, read at the State Fruit-GroW-
ers' meeting at Fresno last week:
This has been one of the most re-
markable years in the history of Cali
fornia fruit culture. The years result
makes plain the fact that nothing IN
California fruit culture is so certain
as the unexpected.
The drouths, the frosts and the un-
favorable weather during the early
part of the season gave rise to a gen.
eral opinion that there would be little
or no shipping fruit to leave the State.
BY the middle of May the outlook had
materially improved, but yet the most
sanguine-minded estimated that the
years shipment would not exceed 300
carloads, or less than half of last year S
shipments. The surprise is therefore
a most agreeable one to find at the
close of the shipping season, that
1924 cars of fresh decdiuous fruits
have left the State, as against o,323
cars for last year-a shortage Of only
y per cent Despite the somewhat
lessened volume of shipments, the in
come to the State for fresh fruits,
owing to the much higher prices which
prevailed, has been materially greater
than for several past seasons.
The distribution of such income from
fresh fruits has, however, been most
uneven and irregular. In many indi-
vidual cases and in some localities,
owing to almost a total loss of crop,
this has been a most improbable, if
not disastrous, year; while in other To-
calities and individual cases fruit
growers having a good crop found this
to be their red-letter year; many have
not alone been enabled to wipe off
mortgages of long standing, but have
laid by a handsome surplus besides
The number of cars shipped to the
East for the last four years indicates
that the growing markets for Califor-
mia fruits are along the Atlantic sea-
board. The shipments to Chicago have
declined from lab cars, in 1895, tc
1,153 in 1898. A noticeable decline is
also manifest in the shipments to other

MRS. JAMES E. BUTLER,
SHERIDAN, MICH.
The Minister'S Wife.

"One day his attention was brought
to the fact that the unsupported coffee
was very likely the cause of his
trouble, and it was suggested that if
he would use Postum Food Coffee and
induce the good wife to be particular
to boil it long enough to extract the
delicious flavor aud the elements which
go to rebuild the broken down nerve
centers his trouble would be gone.
This was two years and a half
ago, and since that time not a pound
of coffee has been purchased by the
minister's family. Morning, noon and
night Postum makes it's appearance
on the table, and is enjoyed by all.
With the departure of coffee went the
minister's bad feelings, and with the
coming of Postum came feeling Of
exhilaration. better appetite and a
constantly increasing weight.
From the start, the minister's Pos
tum has been properly made, because
of the warning.
'At one time during the absence of
housewife, the domestic, not being
particular about preparing Postum
according to directions, made it weak
and insipid, which we find is a very
common complaint among those who
do not understand that there is no way
to extract the delicious flavor from
Postum except by long boiling. Made
properly, it is clear, black, and has a
crisp, pungent, fascinating taste. Oc-
casionally the minister has been in
duced to drink a cup of coffee at wed
dings, parties, etc, but many sleepless
hours of the night are passed in con-
sequence This is a true experience"

ANOTHER ELECTION CONTEST
VIM. JOHNSTON CLAIMS TO
HAVE BEEN ELECTED.
Ayers Ma1conduct Of Election
Boards and That One Was
Not Sworn In.

William Johnston, through Hiram w.
Johnson and Bruner Bros, his attor-
neys, has filed in the Superior Court a
contest against Morris Brooke, for the
office of Assemblyman of the Twenty
second District.
The complaint recites the facts Of the
election on November Sth, in which
contestant and respondent were oppo-
nents for the Office and that on No
vember 23d the Board Of Supervisors
declared Brooke elected and AYERS that
he, Johnston, received the highest num-
Der of legal votes and was legally elect
ed and the declaration of Brookes cleo
tion was wrongful and his certificate Of
election illegal and void
He further states that within the said
Assembly District the County Hospital
is situated, in the precinct of Oak Park,
and that large number of INDECENT
and paupers We're there, none of whom
actually resided in the precinct, but
had been sent prior to that date from
the city of Sacramento and other out :
side places, and that he is informed
that they, TO the number of at least
thirty, voted at the election.
He asserts on information that the
Boards of Election in the precincts at
Oak Park, Oak Grove, Swiss Station,
Perkins, Pattersons, Costumes, Elk
Grove and Clay Station. and that in
those precincts votes cast for contest
ant were counted for Brooke, to the
number of at least ten ip each pre-
cinct, and that in said precincts per-
sons were allowed to vote who Were not
on the Great Register and were not en-
titled to vote
He further ayers that in Oak Grove
and Swiss Station parties not on the
Great Register were permitted to vote
on certificates; that at Elk Grove the
Board of Election was not sworn in ac-
cording to law; that the Board of Su-
pervisors, in declaring that contestant
received l ,290 votes and Brooke ,351
votes, counted more than sixty votes
for the latter that were cast for con-
testant He contends that on account
of said malconduct. the vote of Oak
Park, Oak Grove and Swiss Station and
of Elk Grove should be disregarded and
not counted; and that. as he is in
formed. in each of the said precincts at
least fifteen persons voted who were
not entitled to.
Wherefore he asks that the Clerk of
this county issue a commission to two
Justices of the Peace in the county to
meet at a time and place specified, not
less than twenty nor more than thirty
days from date for the purpose of TAX
ing dispositions of such witnesses as the
parties to the contest may wish to ex-
anime and such proceedings as are nee
essary by law, and that contestant be

Western points; whereas, the ship
ments to New York, Boston, Philadel-
phia and Montreal have increased since
1893 from 800 to 100 per cent. The ex-
PLANTATION for this lies largely in the
fact that Chicago and other Western
cities are receiving increasing supplies
OF fruit from such States as Georgia,
Michigan and Colorado.
The character of these products, how
ever, is SO much more perishable than
the California article that it Is not SO
profitable to ship them to the more dis
tant Atlantic markets. in competition
with California fruits.
Attention is called to the growth Of the
appleindustry. Four hundred and thirty
four cars of apples left the State this
year, against sixty-one cars last year,
an increase Of over 100 per cent. This
result is due, in a measure, to light
Eastern apple crop.
Despite the unfavorable season,
cherry shipments increased fully ~ per
cent. compared with last year and the
pear crop, which at one time was pro-
nounced almost a total failure. fur
nished 1854 cars for shipment, against
last years shipment of 1910 cars, a
loss only of about 3 per cent.
The California Fruit Growers and
Shippers Association has continued TO
successfully carry on the work dele
gated to it by the fruit-growers, who,
by their united action brought it into
life, and has succeeded in maintaining
union auction-houses. free and open to
all buyers in all the auction markets,
thus preventing the fruit from coming
in needless competition with itself, and
has also continued the publication of
the daily bulletin, which gives a daily
report of the Eastern fruit shipments
and the destination of the cars. While,
owing to various causes beyond con-
troll, the daily bulletin cannot be made
absolutely perfect, it has nevertheless
| proven of inestimable value to the
growers and shippers in keeping them
| Informed Of the daily output, the vari-
eties of fruit going forward, and the
date of their expected arrival in the
! various markets, and has thus done
most important service in preventing
| the disastrous gluts in the Eastern
markets, which, before the publication
of the daily bulletins, We're of so COM
mon an occurrence and so ruinous in
their results to the growers. Respect
