CITRUS CROP RETURNS

According to interviews in the River
side papers there has been an over
estimate of this seasons citrus fruit
crop.
ono expert w. r.. Pedley, figures the
crop at not exceeding 10000 cars. He
says the estimate of 350OO to Al nm
which has the backing Of the railroads.
IS too high, and gives as his reason for
the lower figures that "the great ma
1ority of old trees have very light
crop and that, as whole. the sizes run
small"
An official estimate Of the crop will
be made by the Fruit Growers ex-
change on December 20. when there
will be a consensus of estimates. Tn
the meantime the growers claim it is
injurious to their interests to over
estimate the crop, although admitting
that it is necessary for the railroads to
put the figures trihe high in order
that transportation facilities may be
plentiful,
But 10000 carloads is a big crop, as
any man will discover who undertakes
to calculate the number of oranges in
a box and the number Of boxes in a
car. That amount means prosperity
among the fruit growers of Southern
California-proyided always that they
get anything like square deal from
the railroad companies in the matter
of freight rates.

The troubles Of the flock OF the

by the plaintiffs that Rev Bushel had
been converted from the Baptist faith
and had preached holiness" doctrines
in the sanctuary sacred to Baptistry.
Certain Of the members upheld Rev.
Bushell, but the majority seem to have
been opposed to his action. The ortho-
dox members of the congregation allege
that they We're "churched," or expelled
from the church which they had helped
to build and that the "holiness" fol-
lowers appropriated the church build

All the allegations were denied by
the defense, which asserted that some

oiled and burned to the ground

match was applied, and barely es-
capped with their shirts on their

Will Coates, one of the most
prominent colored citizens Of the

of the first fire, two weeks ago,
Coates house was burned down,

he was lucky to save the lives of
his wife and children, some Of
whom were badly scorched about
