The herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1893-1900, 1898-01-02

Just previous to the boom a great deal
of property about Orange was owned by
non-residents. They sold at goodf1gure
and took their money to other places to
invest But, despite this and many other
disadvantages in which circumstances
have placed us, we have grown steadily
in commercial Importance. Our horti-
culturists have brought their orchards
UP to such a degree of perfection that
even old residents marvel at their sue
cess, and the quantity and quality of our
output are a surprise to the transporta-
ton companies and those to whom the
products are sent.
That this is the case may best be
learned from the following list of ship
ments which have been made from the
orange depot of the Santa Fe between
July l, 1897, and December %, 1897 The
following are the shipments given in

1t is stated that the Columbia stock
sold on the floor of the mining exchange
yesterday morning was not the Columbia
of Lion hill. as thought at the time, but
the stock of the Columbia company oper-
ating in Columbia district, Tooele county
and it is understood that the purchaser
refused to take it, as he was bidding on
the Lion hill security. This duplication of
names often leads to confusion and COM
plications. but as the Lion hill is the only
stock of this name that has been called
on change there is no room for doubt
as to which stock was meant.

RUDE SOCIETY MEN.
How a Stranger In Germany Is En-
tertained In Society.

New York Times: The rudeness of
young society men and their independ-
ence of their hostess and her guests is
spoken of too often not to have some
foundation of truth. At social functions
a woman is absolutely helpless without a
man. She cannot dance unless she is
asked, she cannot move from her seat
without an escort, and the hostess can
not. with the best intentions, properly
entertain women guests without the aid
OF the men. And they are usually in the
minority. The sphere of amusement is
so much wider than that of the women
that they are not as dependent upon
social functions; consequently the young
man grows to feel his weight and he
abuses the hospitality offered. This is a
hostesJ' hospitality just so far as it
pleaSeS him and no further. He is pleased
to be courteous to her guests if they
please him. otherwise he ignores them.
He ignores his hostess likewise If it
pieaseS him. The Wrathful tale told of
the young man who was invited to the
opera and appeared in his II stess' box at
the beginning of the evening, and then
eft ii to make calls upon other friends
and not to return until the end of the
evening, is true, and stories come from
other towns, not so large as New York.
but having a strong social element. where

was not an unattractive maiden either.
who at a large party given in her honor
was found at the supper hour without an
escort. Every man had gone off with
another damsel and forgotten the one for
whom the occasion was. But she dined
in state in an apartment by herself with
other left over maidens, and they en-
ioyed themselves thoroughly. And the
men, it was said afterward. when they
heard of the matter. considered it a
huge joke. which it was. in way. But
they have better ways of ooing things
in other countries or they have better
manners where there is no more cere-
mony. A stranger in Germany is intro

fairs which are held in private houses
Each man considers it his duty to ask
for an Introduction as matter of
courtesy to his hostess.

WORKING THE PICNIC.
The New Hoist On This Valuable
Property Working Like a Charm.


Property Working Like Charm.
Ell. Buchanan, of the Picnic, at Sill
yer City, which adjoins the South
Swansea and the Four Aces on the
south. was in the city yesterday on
business connected with the mine.
In speaking of this property Mr.. Blu
chanan states that the new steam hoist,
which is a duplicate of the South
SWANSEA plant, is working like a charm
and the skip in the incline is running
as smoothly as could be desired, while
another shift has just been put on and
another one will begin work immedi-
ately after the Fourth. as 1t is the IN
tention to sink the incline shaft 200 feet
below the $50 level before stopping; and
it is believed that when this depth is
attained the mine VIII enter the list
as q. regular and heavy producer, as in
the bottom of the $50 shaft, when sink
ing was discontinued to strengthen out
the workings and also to install the new
hoist, there was body of solid shipping
ore exposed from eight to 16 inches in
width, and the indications are that as
work progresses the size Of the deposit
viii gradually increase.
Mr.. Buchanan and his associates are
more than pleased with the condition OF
the Picnic, and as there is ample cap
ital behind the enterprise there IS
scarcely any doubt as to the ultimate
outcome, as there Is every reason TO
believe that the mineral is there and in
paying quantities.
In abiding to the other mines Of that
immediate vicinity Mr. Buchanan
stated that the South Swansea and the
old Swansea were shipping regularly
as well as heavily, while the -Four Aces
was hosting some very fine looking ore
the indications being that the showing
in the workings Of this property were
steadily improving, although, as to this,
he could not state definitely, as no one
is allowed to go down the shaft An
other enterprise connected with the
Four Aces is that in which a Mr.. Har-
wood is identified. Mr.. HarWood has
Installed a jigging machine on the

A CURIOUS WELL.
Hawaii Has Flowing Well of I'm
usual Interest


Hawaiian Star: A most curious phe-
nomenon has been observed in the flow
of an artesian well on Kealia planta-
ton, Kauai The water has regular
variations in its flow being lowest at
o'clock in the morning, gradually rising
until it attains its greatest flow at :
o'clock in the afternoon, and then as
gradually falling until 8 o'clock in the
morning.
Manager George II. Fairchild of the
plantation thus described the peculiar
phenomenon:
The top of the pipe is 13 feet above
sea level, At eight feet there IS flow
of about 100000 gallons in "A hours.
By adding five feet more of pipe the
flow stops. We have had this extra
five feet of pipe on top of the well for
month or more, waiting for extra pipe
to conduct the water to the mill. where
it is to DE used. We have noticed a
peculiar action of this column Of water,
and l have been unable to find any eX-
PLANTATION of it. If the publication Of
the facts by the Star will lead to an
explanation, l Will be very much graft
fed.
The column of water in this five feet
additional pipe placed to prevent the
flow, at O'Clock in the morning is at
its lowest point, one and one-half
inches below the top of the pipe. Then
it rises until at noon it begins TO flow
over the pipe. The flow increases until
O'Clock, when there is quite a flow.
From that time it gradually falls, until
at IL o'clock at night there is very
slight flow. and this ceases at 1 o'clock
in the morning. the water gradually
falling until it reaches the lowest
point at o'clock, when it begins to
rise again.
1T has been suggested that this
change in flow is due to the tides or to
the rotation of the earth, or to the in

Meeting of the Governing Beard.

The governing board of the mining
exchange held a meeting yesterday, in
which the subject of the war revenue
tax was discussed, when the meeting
adjourned until Monday next to fur
Their consider the matter, and in the
meantime the members of the board
will get the opinion of different men,
bers of the legal fraternity on the sub
ject.
At >the meeting referred to it was
decided to notify the members of the
exchange regarding the proposed tax,
and also to learn from them whether
they desired to be considered as active
brokers or contributory members, it
being the purpose to exclude the latter
class from the payment of the $50 tax
imposed on each broker. thus dividing
the members of the exchange into two
classes-the dealers and honorary
members.
1t was also moved and carried that
in future transactions, beginning July
l, the buyer shall pay the stamp tax
on stock transfers and sales.
During the meeting application was
made to have the stock of the Young
America company called with the I'M
listed securities

THAT "FUTURE'' CONTROVERSY.
Broker Hudson Takes Exceptions to
the Tribune's Account of Tt.

c. E. Hudson, the ca,:er of the min
ing stock exchange, and one of the
members of the organization, takes ex-
ceptions TO the Tribunes account OF
the transaction between himself and
Messrs. Tibbals and Zerbe, involving
the sale of 1000 shares of Chloride
Point stock for future delivery, where
in Mr. Hudson declared forfeited the
deposits made by the gentlemen
named, owing to the failure on their
part to call for the stock upon the day
specified in the contract and agreed
upon.
Mr.. Hudson states that while it never
was his intention to take advantage of
a technicality, and declare the deposits
forfeited and keep the money, still his
contract with them would permit him
to do so, and owing to the treatment
he had received at the hands of one Of
the parties on a former transaction he
felt perfectly justified in taking any
advantage that might be in his power;
still, he only declared the deposits for
feited to show the party alluded to that
when the advantage was in his (Hud-
son's) hands, he could be more liberal
with others than he had been treated
by them.
At the time Mr.. Hudson was caught
short he says, he paid his loss without
a murmur, and laughed with those
who twitted him about being squeezed,
but when the tables were turned it did
not take him long to use the whip nor
for the party in question to protest and
rush into print.
The differences between the parties
have all been adjusted, however, and
Mr. Hudson has returned them their
money

Is. 1897, A. E Smith of Castle Dale,

Hon. Theodore Bruback, president of
the Sterling Coal company. operating
at Morrison in the Sanpete country, is
feeling highly pleased over the fact
that within the past few days fine
body Of excellent coal has been dis
closed in the workings of the property,
and he states that in the face OF the
long working tunnel a vein of 20 feet
has been cut into, II feet Of which is
solid body of black diamonds, while the
indications are that as the workings
are pushed further into the hill the
whole OF the 20-foot vein Will be one
mass of good shipping coal.
The long tunnel in this coal meas
ure, mention of which has been made
from time TO time in these columns,
was driven in a distance of 2,1OO feet
before striking the vein, and 1t was
found that the management was not
off over 20 feet in his calculations as to
the distance required before the CD
iect of his search was revealed, and
while running this tunnel two or three
bodies of coal, from six to seven feet
in width, were encountered, which were
left without doing much in their de-
yelopment, as the object was to I'M
cover the main vein, the location OF
which was pretty well understood.
The company has been hard at work
in the furtherance Of this enterprise,
for two years, besides which it has eX-
pended in the neighbOrhood Of $4,000
in reaching the main body of coal, and
while some time yet and the eXpendl-
ture of means will be required in open
ing up the mine, the starting of levels
and rooms, il proposes to be in posi-
ton within the next few months so that
it can enter the coal market this fall
as a keen competitor with the largest
dealers in this city.
The many friends of Mr.. Bruback
and his associates will be pleased to
congratulate them on the success OF
the enterprise; and as for the coal con-
Stunning public, the more producers
there are in the field the better it will
be for them.

Business In the Pit Very Light For
the Last Of the Week.

The wind-up for the weeks business
was very light in the pit Of the ex-
change yesterday. the leading securi-
ties being sadly neglected in the way
of sales, the transfers being confined
to the speculative stocks.
Centennial Eureka was firmly held

for $50 in board lots, the stock being
wanted in ten-share lots at $37. Four
Aces was quite active in the dealings,

but strong, at the quotations of the
previous day, while Geyser- Marion,
contrary to expectations, fell off in the
bidding, as well as in the offerings, the
closing figures being 771a cents bid and
81 cents asked, but this is partially
accounted for by the fact that the
transfer books of the company are
closed until the payment of the forth
coming dividend. Mammoth was also
brokers willing to pick up the stock at
S1.SO. Mercur was slow and inactive,
being quoted at the figures established
al the call of the day before. North
ern Light took another tumble and
found buyers at 2k cents. Chloride
Point was in demand at a slight adj
vance, and recorded a transfer at 9312

South Swansea registered an advance,
and was in brisk demand at SIPS, with
offerings at $1.27. Swansea was sta
tionary at the figures of the previous
call, while Dexter stood pat at $140 in
the asking, with bid of $1.25 recorded.
Columbia came to the front with its
initial sale, 1000 shares of this Lion
