REBUILDING THE ICE PLANT

Since the unfortunate fire which destroyed the ice plant at this place quite a strong claim has been put up by Imperial par ties that when rebuilt 1t would be located at that place. The hope of this outcome accounts for much of the complacence with which the burning of the plant is regarded in that quarter. That this hope is illusive and vain is quite apparent. The ice plant will be rebuilt, of that fact every one can rest assured. Regardless of whether the present owners ot the Holton Power company sell their property or retain it this will be done. No other industrial en- terprise in this Valley promises such returns from the capital in- vested as an ice plant sufficiently large to supply the Valley and control the business. Under the circumstances such an industry is certain to be established. This being the case the question of To- cation and other advantages come up tor consideration. In this matter Fl Centro naturally has all the best of it over Imper- al. This is the most central To- cation to the large majority of the dairymen and is the natural

POOR HANDWRITING.
One Ot the Causes That Dovnea Na-
 poleon at Waterloo.

pOIeon st Waterloo.
 The nose of Cleopatra had n marked influence on the destinies of the an- cient world. The handwriting of Ma poleon l., we are assured by recent historians, had a similar effect upon the evolution of the modern world He did not write; he scrawled. By reason of this, among other causes, he lost Waterloo. Grouchy could not read with eXactness his decisive message Was 1t 'bataille engagee" Cbattle is on), or "bataille gagnee" Cbattle Is womb
 Grouchy chose the latter significance and, not believing 1t necessary to press forward, arrived too late. So much for the curl of letter. pen stroke or an illegible swell to an "a."
 This question was brought forward by the writing master of the elder Dumas.
 Remember, Alexandre," the master said to him, "the great defeat of the emperor was due only to his scrawling hand. If you wish to succeed in the world be careful of your heavy and your light strokes" So if Napoleon had known how to write legibly or if he had taken the trouble to do so his descendants would reign today in France and we should not have had the republic. It appears historically established today that Dumas writing master was right. And on such slight things rests the fate of empires.-Cri de Paris.

location for a great cooperative creamery.
 The Holton Iuter-Urban rail- road connects with the Southern Pacific at this point and thus fur nishes direct shipping facilities to Holtville, while the Southern Pacific gives direct service north and south. Both Holtville and El Centro will largely increase their acreage to cantaloupes next year and a considerable acreage will be planted to grapes and as- paragus. No doubt one-half of the Valleys total production of these crops will be grown at El Centro and Holtville. All these facts bear on the question of To- cation for the ice plant and were the causes that led to its location at this point in the first place. Then there is the matter of sal- wage that we have not touched upon. The foundations of the burned building are uninjured and so are the cement floors. These are already ill and appear to be none the worse for the fire. Almost one-half of the sand and all the cement was used in the foundations and floors. It would cost probably ten thousand dol lars to put in such foundation and floor. Then there are a great many bricks that can be used again, the water tower and works are uniujured and the transform CT room and all its contents are not damaged in the least. The ice plant will be rebuilt just as soon as 1t can be and 1t will be right on the same foundations that it stood upon first. The nat ural advantages of location land business that dictated its location in the first place will serve to keep it here now and the tremen- dous loss that its construction at any other point would entail is an additional and all sufficient reason tor it's rebuilding on the old site. The only thing which may delay its rebuilding will be possible difficulty in getting new machinery. Nothing else will keep the Ell Centro ice plant from quickly rising from its ashes and taking its place at the head of the industrial enterprises of the Imperial Valley.

Their Reward.

pr. Strachan, bishop of Toronto, was waited upon by two churchwardens, who complained that their clergyman wearied his congregation by repeating the same sermon. He had preached it twelve times. The bishop asked for the text. Neither of the churchwardens could remember. "Go back" said the bishop sternly, "and ask your clergy man to preach the sermon once more and then come back and tell me the text"
