Although he is many times a million

Francisco, M. lie Breton prefers to
spend most of his time in one of these
institutions, and it is expected that

HIGH WIND DOES
GREAT DAMAGE
STORM SWEEPS SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA
Fruit Crop in Orange County Partially
Ruined-Ssnd Blows on South
ern Pacific Tracks and
Stops Trains

a windstorm, locally known as n
Santa Ana, swept the southern half Of
the state yesterday. The windstorms
occur at irregular intervals and are
supposed to originate i'm the Santa Ana
canyon. The true cause OF these dis
turbances is, according to the weather
bureau, an area of abnormal high
pressure in northwestern Montana and
an area of low pressure in California.
The cold air come, sweeping down
from the mountains and forms the
Santa Ana.
In Orange and Santa Ana, in Orange
county. great damage was done by the
high wind. orange groves were ruined
in many instances and the ground is
yellow with fallen fruit.
The country in the vicinity Of Santa
Ana is Of a sandy nature and the sand
has blown onto the tracks Of the
Southern Pacific railway until it has
become necessary to procure snow
plows from Arizona to scrape the
tracks clear.
1t has been estimated the value of
the orange crop in Orange county will
be lessened by one-half as the result
of the storm. Much of the fruit is
bruised and there Will De a nlSn per-
centage of culls.
The weather mans explanation Of
existing conditions is as follows: An
area of abnormally high pressure ex-
tending to the Missouri river and at
tended by fair freezing weather is
slowly moving eastward from the
Rocky mountain slope. The pressure
in the southwest is low, the gradients
between the southern coast and the
crest of the high area being nearly an
inch. AS a result, fair weather with
drying land winds and unseasonably
high temperature prevails i'll the
southern portion of California.
The maximum temperature at Los
Angeles Friday was n degrees and
at San Luis Obispo and San Diego "
degrees.
The weather for the southern portion
of California will be fair and colder
today with cold winds tomorrow.

ORANGE ORCHARDS DAMAGED
Wind Plays Havoc With Trees Near
San Bernardino

Special to The Herald.
SAN BERNARDINO, Dec. 9,-The
heavy "norther" that has been blowing
the past 36 hours is doing considerable
damage to the orange crop in the val
ley by soaring the oranges and break
ing down the trees in the heavily
laden orchards. The districts that are
suffering the worst are Rialto, Cotton,
Highgrove, and the north portion OF
the Redlands district. 1t is estimated
the damage will mount into the thou
sands of dollars. as it will cause the
fruit to Gull much heavier the balance
of the season.
The wind is also doing much damage
in the way of unrooting small buildings
and the Highland electric line from
this city was out of service all day.
The damage has been repaired, so the
line is in operation this evening.

Extra Easily Defeated.

1t was indeed sweet revenge which
the Audubon players obtained from
Extra last Thursday. The score Of
IL to ! is prima facie evidince of thai
fact. No time during the game die
the Extra team have "a chance of win
ming, their only run being made on al
error. The Audubon boys played al
excellent class of ball, being in the
game all the time with determination
and vim. No individual praise car
be given to them for they all played
their positions we'll. Don Preston
pitched an excellent game, The game
was far better than the resultant game
would indicate. Extra at times play
ed excellent ball, and might have haG
a show of winning If the Audubon
boys hadn't had their batting clothes
on, Extra using three pitchers during
the game.

Canning Factory to Start.

Superintendent Landon informs us
that the canning factory will presum-
ably start the 10Th for the seasons
run. Over five hundred acres have
been contracted for delivery, while it
is probable that much more will be
brought in. The plant has an output
of 40, 900 cans per day. Few people
yet fully appreciate the size and ga
pacity Of the plant here. In all. there
will be about eighty people employed,
which alone speaks of the good the
industry will do for our city. Audu-
bon should, therefore, be proud of
this industry and should give the pro-
moters all of the encouragement pos
sible. w. l.. Landon, who has entire
charge, is an experienced man and an
adept at the business, coming here
from Grand Island, Neb., where he
for some time held a similar position.
1t Is requested that visitors please re
frain from visiting the factory for the
first three or four days, on account OF
the help being green and unskilled.
Visitation will be permitted thereafter,
The Rock Island laid a switch to the
building last week. This week three
new steam kettles and one cutter have
been placed in the factory.

Temperance Meeting Sunday Night

DR.. McCash unavoidably missed
the train at Des Moines, Saturday
morning and did not reach here unit
Sunday afternoon, the result being
that no meeting was held on Saturday.
On Sunday evening u large company
assembled in the park where they
were entertained and instructed by
good music and inspiring addresses
w. G, Elliott presided, Rev. Cony-
beare offered prayer and Rev. Wen
del closed with the benediction. The
address of DR.. McCash was earnest
aud optimistic but ~eminently fair and
explicit. He commenced by making
a protest against the saloon in be-
half of those who do not have an
opportunity under the law to sign or
refuse to sign a petition of consent:
III behalf of the women who are barred
because they are not voters: in behalf
of the young men who have not reach
their majority; in behalf OF the young
women who will in the near future
become associated with the young
men by the sacred ties of marriage;
in behalf of the boys and the girls
who In a few years will be the men
and the women in charge of the affairs
cussed the question from u CONNER
cial point of view showing clearly
that the establishment of saloons
does not add to the wealth, nor bring
any commercial advantage to a town
or city, giving Illustrations To sustain
his statement, Mr. C~onybeare made
a short speech in which he said the
league had its plans fully made To
fight the petition, but that no explain
alton was considered either necessary
or eXpedient for the reason that a
good general would never furnish his
plans for a campaign to the enemy.
A subscription for the prosecution of
the work in this county was then
taken and the meeting closed by the
benediction.

The indications and the reports are
to the effect that the men who were
here trying to obtain a petition of
consent for saloons have become dis
heartened and retired from the field.
We trust this report is correct. We
feel confident, judging from what we
have seen and heard, that a large ma
jority of the people interested do not
want saloons in this county. And it
is a good deal better not to have any
excitement or agitation owe the mat
ter unless it becomes necessary.
