oS ANGELES HERALD. MONDAY MORNING, APRIL 4,
TOO MUCH WIND
A DESERT BREEZE DOES GREAT
DAMAGE AT ANAHEIM
Beets Covered With Sand or Blown
Out Of the Ground-Dairymen
Are Making Money

ANAHEIM, April 3.-The most destruc-
tive windstorm of the season blew from the
west all day Saturday. In addition to
spelling large areas of barley, 1t sealed the
doom of the beet crop around Anaheim
About 800 acres, almost ready for thinning,
are now covered with sand to depth Of
several inches or blown completely out Of
the soil. Considering the dryness of tine
season, replanting Is out of the question.
Senator Jones, local agent for the Chino
sugar factory, has ordered all the beet
seed sold the farmers to be returned. and
no beets will be shipped from here to Chino
this season.
/ The farmers who pooh-poohed the dairy
business as too slow method of accumu-
lating wealth are now the victims Of vain
regret. This time last year milk was SELL
ing at the creameries a 80 cents per hundred
pounds, while today 1t is worth 81. and the
farmer who owns three or four cows will
tide owe. the dry year and hardly feel it.,
while the farmer who sold out his herd with
the object of going into the beet business
will get sadly left. The COW was the bird
in the hand-the beets the birds in the bush.
Except In a few places, the question Of
summer and winter feed is easily solved.
The pasture will last well on to the autumn
and then stock beets Of which large areas
have been planted, and are still being
planted, will come in, and these along with
sorghum, another popular crop this year,
will keep up the milk flow and the monthly
check from the creameries.
The meeting of the farmers institute at
Westminster has given an impetus to scien-
tiic farming in that fertile section. A
farmers club has just been organized, with
H. G. Carlyle as president and r. o. Shive-
ly as secretary. The first meeting is to be
held at the call of the secretary. The club
committee has adopted a good dry year
motto-free membership.

Stories Of big finds" Of gold reach US,
not only from the Klondike but from many
parts of the country not hitherto suspected
of being veined by the precious metal. A
tremendous impetus to mining industry and
the development by syndicates of capital
lists of natural mineral wealth in numerous
directions has resulted from the discover
les Of individual gold seekers. The expos
ure and hardships of frontier miners have
ever been productive of rheumatism, one
OF the most obstinate and agonizing COM
plants. AS means Of ameliorating and
preventing this malady, Hostetter's Stom-
ach bitters Is unequaled, and no testino-
malls from physicians corroborative of its
claims are more positive than those which
attest its efficacy for this complaint. The
action Of this fine medicine is also speedily
felt in cases Of malarial. dyspeptic and kid
ney and bladder complaints. Lumbago
and other infirmities incident to advancing
years are also counteracted by 1t.

BOYS HOME AGAIN
Cadet Brigade Return From Thei,
Encgmpment

IACdAAp AICAt
SAN BERNARDINO, April s.-They are
now ready to enlist and fight Spain or any
other country. The Cadet brigade consider
themselves old soldiers, for they have
smelled powder and like the oder. Rev. r.
v. Fisher marched his little boys back to
the city, arriving late Saturday night, and
they report GLORIOUS" time and say they
have never had SO much fun crowded into
three days as on this outing. A march of
a dozen miles to the canyon and dozen
miles march back again Is no small VEN
ture for the little fellows, but they did it
like a man." Although they were SOL
diers, they had but three guns among them
and those permitted to carry these were
the envied of the whole force. The first
thing on reaching camp was to put out
the pickets and guards and one of them in
showing how he would repel an attack
shot q comrade in the shoulder. Another
shot neighbor who came to see what was
going on. After that the commanding Off
Ger took away the cartridges and replaced
them with blanks. During the first night
the camp was awakened by the guard
shooting at mountain lion which had
wandered down and was looking for sup
per. Then four men tried to make a raid
upon the stores, but few shots of blank
cartridges set them running and they never
came back. On the second night six larger
boys from town went out to scare the little
ones, but when the latter turned loose upon
them with their guns they were glad to
make their escape One was captured and
held prisoner until morning. Although the
norther of Saturday filled the air with dust
and sand the boys marched pluckily
through 1t all, making the dozen miles or
more on foot, "just like soldiers" and are
now ready to enlist against Spain if the
government needs them. The commanding
officer, Rev. F. v. Fisher, speaks in the
highest terms Of the boys under him and
was as delighted with the adventure as the
lads themselves.

RIvfRSIDf'S NEW PARK
CITIZENS WORK FREE TO PUT 1T
INTO SHAPE
Politics Warming Up-High License
and No License-0range Ship
ments Up to Date

RIVERSIDE, April 3-Another big days
work was done on Paramount park Satur-
day by several teams and something like
fifty men. The work was all contributed
free, and at this, the second days general
work, the park grounds present a far bet
ter appearance than when the land was
set aside by the city trustees short time
lago. No attempt is to be made to make
anything more than well-shaded and
well-appointed picnic ground of the park.
Ia large number of both deciduOus and
evergreen shade trees has been planted,
a well has been dug and seats and drives
provided.
The different secret organizations and
church societies in the city have Joined
forces to improve the park. and the lead
ership has been taken by the Grand Army
post, which Is active in the work.
A joint meeting of the executive city cleo
ton committees of the Republican and
Non-partisan parties was held last night
at the office of District Attorney Gill, TO
decide and agree upon plan to be pur-
sued in holding the election on the liquor
question. This vote will be taken separate
lily from the regular vote for city officers
and 1t was decided to ask voters to first
vote at the regular booths, that is for city
OFFICERS, where they would be given a card
to be presented to the liquor voting booths,
which show them entitled to a vote there.
| The high-license advocates are working
hard to carry the day for their pet hobby
but the impression is quite strong that pro-
hibition will win the day hands down. The
longer the city Is without the open saloon
the stronger the sentiment grows against
reopening them here. The high-license adj
vocates realize they have hard fight. On
the other hand, the prohibitionists, al
though feeling sure of success, are not
idle, and every vote possible to secure will
be voted by them on election day.
AS usual, there is strong middle party,
that is, men who don't take much interest
in the matter, and when It comes to de-
Gliding the question, this vote will have
much weight:
The police rounded up full half dozen
DRINKS last evening, as well as one man

William Mills and George Guthrie, two
|well-known business men of this city, have
all arrangements made to start for the

DIR. JOHN HALL.

The resignation of Dr. John Hall, so long the pastor of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church, in New York. an- nounced on January g, excites interest that reaches far beyond the boundaries of Manhattan Island. Thirty years ago he came from Dublin to take charge of a church known as "the richest Presbyte- rian church in America" Under Dr. Hall that church has been known not most religious churches in the country. There has never been any question as to the influence or the primary purposes of that church under pr. Hall or as to the sort of gospel that has been preached there, or as to its efficiency as a Chris tian body. From every point of view whereof the public has any knowledge pr. Halls pastorate has been superla- lively successful No reason is given for his retirement, except that in his own opinion 1t was time to shift his labors and responsibilities upon younger shoul- ders.
 pr. Hall Is of Scotch descent, and was born in Armagh. Ireland, in 1929 He was educated in Belfast College, and licensed to preach in 1849. He preached in Ar magh, and afterward in Dublin, and came to New York in 1867 During his pastorate his church moved from Nine teenth street up to its present site. on the corner of Fifty-fifth street and Fifth avenue, where the present church edifice and parsonage were built at a cost of years, from 1882 to 1892, Dr. Hall was chancellor of the University of New York. He has also been a trustee. of Princeton and Wellesley colleges, and chairman of the Presbyterian Board of Home MiSsionS.-Harper' Weekly,

THE PAPER MORRIS 1TsED

Mir Morris was no advocate for thick paper, but he had long before found out that machine made paper of wood pulp and clay was useless for permanent results, to say nothing of the uninteresting quality of it's sur face. The latter failing as a factor by no means unimportant in the beauty of a book. Much of our shiny, calen- dered paper is, besides, trying to the eyes. He was forced to resort to the plain, honest way of the old-time pa permakers. Unbleached linen rags were used. and molds whose wires were not woven with absolute mechanical accuracy, thus obtaining a sort of va riety in the surface
 This paper was made expressly for him by MT Batchelor at Little Chart, near Ashford, and resembles the pa per of the early printers in all it's best qualities. Three water marks were designed by him for paper of different sizes-''the apple, the daisy and the perch with spray in it's mouth; each of these devices being accompanied by the initials W.
