FULLERTON OIL WELLS RAISlNS AT RIVERSIDE
THE CROP THE BEST FOR QUALITY
EVER GROWN
The Death Of Young Reinke at Los
Angeles Is to Be Inves-
tigated -

RIVERSIDE, July s-The raisin crop of
this valley continues to look and promise
good. 1t will be the best ever grown here
so far as quality is concerned. Riverside
fruit growers have quit the raisin produc-
ton business in a great measure for the
reason that prices have averaged low in
the past few years. but the few who are still
growing the crop will have good ones this
season.
It il estimated that there are yet from
400 to 500 carloads OF oranges on the trees
in this valley, and It Is not thought that
more than d per cent of this great amount
Of fruit will be picked for shipment. Low
prices and lack of orders have about put a
stop td shipments and many of the packing
houses have closed for the season, which
has been carried forward fully three weeks
longer than in other years. The present
lack of market will have great influence
upon the further setting of orange groves,
as many will think twice before devoting
time and money to business that seems
to have reached . limit OF profit, for the
present at beast.

A Stowaway's Fix.

George Ferguson, n stowaway, who
was held on board the steamer Barrow
more to he returned to England, got
himself into an uncomfortable position
while attempting TO escape. He tried
to crawl through the dead light of the
room in which he was confined and
drop overheard, but after getting his
shoulders through he stuck fast. He
could not get his hips through the
hole. aud neither could he draw his
shoulders back, AID he hung there,
half inside aud half outside OF the
ship. 1t took only II short time to
convince him that escape was impos.
sible, and then he began to shout for
aid, but the noise made in loading the
ship prevented his cries from being
heard, aud it was not until he had
been in his unpleasant position for
nearly three hours that any help came
to him. The seamen of the Barrow
more tried in every way to extricate
him, but without effect. They pullo
him backward by the legs aud forward
by the arms, and covered his body
with grease to prevent it from stick
ing, but it was not until some one
thought of unscrewing the brass
frame OF the dead light that he was
gotten out, and then the frame came
out with him aud had to be cut off
with saw. 1t was o'clock when he
tried to make his escape, and it was
nearly II when he was taken out, so
that he was thoroughly exhausted aud
a good deal bruised. He will go back
on board the ship when she sails.

llre ON A FRENCH PENAL SHIP.
Floating Prison which Conveys ConVie'S
10 Penal Colonies

=" nv"
TO Penal Colonies.
The French transport ship Gala
DOME, recently lying at Port Tampa,
was an object of much curiosity ms
grim sea prison annually conveysabout
two thousand souls from the land OIL
the living the gay French republic
to an enduring death ON the Safety
Islands.
The Caladonie is an iron ship OF
44O0 tons. For the past ten years IL
has been in the employ Of the French
government transporting criminals
from France and Algeria to the penal
colonies on the Safety Islands, thirty
miles off the coast of French Guiana
Four steel cages, each with capac'
ity OF 100, are ready for the mall pri'
soners az they come aboard, while
much smaller one, capable OF holding
only thirty-one persons, Is sufficient
for the female convicts. This latter
cage is in the aft Of the ship, and Is
widely separated from the Others, The
women are treated with great deal
more consideration than the men.
They hayeregular berths and are given
better fare. The men sleep in canvas
hammocks, and are given the ordinary
seamnn's ration, which is substantial
if not very elaborate.
A very interesting feature and one
horrible TO contemplate is the facility
with which the steam can be used
upon the convicts should they attempt
To take possession of the ship. Pipes
are so arranged that were such an at
tempt to be made it would be possible
for the officers Of the vessel to scald
every prisoner TO death in less time
than it would take to count them.
Captain Dano never had such a case
arise on board his ship, but it often
becomes necessary to- give them q lit
tie steam to quell discomfort. AS a
rule, however, the eighty guards who
are regularly detailed for service on
board are sufficient to keep the prison
ers quiet.
Should an outbreak at any time
occur n signal of alarm calls all bands
to the midship section Of the ship, and
then all the ladders leading to the
upper deck of this section are dawn
up, the lower doors barricaded, and
the rightful commanders have
quickly improvised but strong
fort, which embraces the boiler and
engine room, the arsenal and provi-
sion rooms, the officers headquarters,
the chart and steering rooms, and the
bridge. The convicts cannot come
near enough to scale the walls or to
batter down the doors on account of
the scalding steam, while from the
fortress the guards and crew can shoot
them as they.appear.
