OLTEM SHELLEY.
To The Newark Journal:

To The Newark Jeurnal:
 Death has visited the home of Mir. and Mrs. John Sheeley and taken from them their beloved son, Ol- tenn. He departed this life Janu- ary 1, 1906. His remains were laid to rest at the Dugger ceme- tery.
 Oltem was young man about 2I years of age. He leaves a father, mother, two brothers and a host of friends to mourn his death. OItem was q good kind hearted boy, loyed by all who knew him. His death was quite unexpected. He was sick only a few days with pneumonia.
 How sad ana lonely the home when all are gathered around the fireplace, and We see a vacant seat. We look around for Oltem, but he is not there. His voice is hushed, his footsteps are heard no more.
 Rev. McDoniel conducted the service at the grave, where a large concourse of people assem- bled to pay the last sad tribute of respect to the memory of de- parted friend. The bereaved family have the ympathy of the community.
 We'll never hear his footsteps For God has called him home, He's gone to join the angels,
 Where he'll never be alone. Weep not for dear Oltem; For God knows best. We know; It is so hard to give him up.
 But God called him His own
 A FRIEND.

 1 enclose herewith a dollar, which please place to my credit on subscription. 1 cannot do with out The Journal, for it is a good, nice, clean paper, we'll printed, and the best of all, it's like getting a weekly letter from home. One cannot get my wife to leave home on Monday, for that is the day The Journal gets here.
 We have | very pleasant climate in this country. There has been no cold weather here yet this winter, and only about two frosts. l have been here ten years, and have seen snow only twice during that time.
 People are beginning to farm, or, rather, are preparing their lands for 1t. They plant corn here in next month. A large cot ton crop was made here last year. Corn, wheat and oats were alse good.
 We have but little sickness, and any man who will work can make money, in spite of the monstrous boil weeyil. We have but one negro in the town. He Is 94 years old. There Is a colony of negroes off from town a few miles. The people raise almost anything they want to. l am told that corn averages 5 bushels per acre, and cotton about half Il bale. One man, with cultiyator, can culti- yate 40 to 6G acres.

A TRIP TO CALIFORNIA
Newark Citizen Writes of Things Seen and Heard En Route

To The Newark Journal:

wards, and landed in this city Fri day, December 2S.
 1 stopped over at Texarkana she 26th and found nice little city, but at Fort Worth, Texas, any next stop, l found much nicer place. My next stop was at Big Springs, Tex, where found 3 town of 5, 1000 people, not incor- porated. There are five saloons at that place. but l did not see a man under the influence of whis- Key while there, and they are the most friendly people l ever met. Here l took the train for El Paso, Tex, where l found a nice little city. Leaving there 1 took the Southwestern for Los Angeles.
 On the way 1 saw lake which was As miles wide and 9S miles aong. It was formed by the ocean, and just began to run into a can yon year ago. It rises steadily an inch day, and has forced the Southwestern railroad to move three times and 1t is now making sts fourth move. 1t Is said to be about 40 feet deep and in many places you can see where houses ar little villages have been.
 Calton, where you change cars for Riverside, eight miles south, is a fine place, sourrounded by fine orange groves, The trees are now loaded with fruit, and young oranges are still putting on. From there to Los Angeles Is a valley about 40 miles wide, where they grow the finest fruit and flowers and have the finest residences you ever saw.
 Los Angeles Is a nice city of some 100000 people, and people from the East are coming here so fast the dray wagons can't keep ahe trunks hauled away from the depot. This country is a sure Though Sunny South As far as one can see there are fine vine yards and flowers, all green and in full bloom, and 1t is this way all tha year round. They have a fine climate, fine water and q fine ocean breeze, and its the best place on earth for enjoyments of all kinds
 This is very cheap place to live. One can get room and board for $4 per week, and wages are very good. Clerks in mercantile establishments get S15 to $50 per week, and street car men get 22 50 2S cents per hour. They have all kinds of places of amusement and one can live cheap or live high, just as he likes.
 Western Texas, Southern Arizo- Ra and New Mexico are not worth a nothing but bald hills and bald prairies. Nothing to see but prairie dogs and coyotes. No water, no nothing. 1 never saw a house for I thousand miles across the desert except a depot every go or 30 miles.
 l think 1 will stay here, but can't say yet. Am going down on the coast tomorrow. Will write more when l get better ac- quainted. If any of my friends want to ask me any questions about the country, write me at Los Angeles, and 1 will take pleas are in answering the same.
