Cow Stops Train

Oxnard, Cal, Feb. PA train was held up for nearly an hour today, and an entire train crew and ten passen- gers put to work by an unfortunate COW. The animal had attempted to cross a short trestle on the Southern Pacific line, near this city, and slip ping, it's two front legs had gone down between the ties. The Nordhoff stub was unable to cross the bridge and engineer and brakeman could not eXtricate the bovine. The remaining part of the crew, assisted to no avail and the passengers were called upon By tying a rope about it's body and getting beneath the bridge they were finally able to roll it off.

Rivers Beneath Desert

Banning, Feb. 27.-Edward War ren, one of the many settlers of the Morongo Valley, brings interesting re- ports of water development in the val ley which is in the willie Boy" coun- try, about fifty miles northeast from Banning. Attracted by the excellent soil of the valley many settlers have gone there during the last year and some deep wells have been drilled. On the west side of the range the drillers have succeeded in obtaining water in large quantities, indicating that the underground currant is con- trolled by rock chasms. That under ground rivers exist in the Colorado desert near Banning has long been be- lieved by many.

Albuquerque, N. M, Feb. 27.- Storm advices from Union county and other eastern New Mexico counties are to the effect that the worst bliz gard since 1859 is raging there Snow has fallen to a depth of more than six. teen inches and driven by terrific wind is drifted in some places twenty feet high. All trains on the Colorado & Southern railway are tied up, sev- eral being caught in deep drifts. Traf fic is suspended. Owners of the great cattle and sheep ranches report heavy losses among the live stock, as both cattle and sheep were in poor condi- tion and died by hundreds. The bliz- gard has been raging twenty-four hours. So far as known no lives have been lost.

Who Wants Nice BObCat?

Los Angeles, Feb. 27-The bottom has fallen out of the local market for mountain lions and bobcats. The bears have taken possession. Full grown lions are quoted at $30 each, while bobcats are selling as low as $500.
 The law of supply and demand is said to be responsible for this con- dition. From Luna Park, which is practically the only local market for such beasts, comes the report that at least 100 animals have been offered the management within the past few months.
 To keep mountain lions and bobcats from becoming a drug on the local market, Manager Snow, of Luna Park proposes to hold an auction every Tuesday morning. On these occasions the captors of the big cats may dis pose of their prizes under the ham, mer to the highest bidder.

WOman'S Plea StirS
 Land Officers Here

Los Angeles, Feb. 27.-A letter pathetic in it's appeal and detailing at length the story of woman work ing for weeks in fields beneath burn ing sun, yesterday moved local United States land officials to draft a recom- mendation to Washington asking for an extension of ninety days on behalf of homesteaders under the Yuma dam project
 Mrs. E. E. Rose, of Bard, Cal, was the writer of the letter and following it's receipt O. R. w. Robinson, re- ceiver, and Frank Buren, register of the land office here, sent their recom- mendation to Washington.
 Mrs. Rose says she is a widow and has only an invalid son to help her. She is 60 years of age. That she has worked in the field until she "drop- ped from fatigue is her statement Half of her land is under cultivation and in April crop of barley and al falfa will be ready for harvesting, she states. At that time she will be in possession of sufficient money to com plete the improvements required by law. She has spent, the letter states, $2S00 in improving the land and un- less further time is granted she will lose her claim, the only property she has. Mrs. Rose explains that there are others in the same position and pleads for an extension of time Sev- eral other letters have also been re- ceived setting forth similar conditions by the officials.

Rush Cattle to Imperial

Fl Centro, Feb. 27.-Carload after carload of live stock is being brought into Imeprial Valley from the coast and other points as result of the shortage of pasturage and feed in out side districts and the continued drought. Imperial Valley alfalfa and barley fields are in fine condition and are making a vast amount of pastur- age.
 Several of the largest stock pro- ducers in Southern California are making arrangements to ship stock to Imperial Valley and may continue their operations here. One feature of the general situation is that dairy stock is going onto the market at out side points at a much lower price than has prevailed and Imperial Val ley land owners are taking advantage of this opportunity to buy milk cows at a reasonable figure at the same time that butter is at high price.
 Another condition that is develop ing in Imperial Valley is a great de- mand from new corners for land to rent for the coming season, so that feed crops may be raised the ensuing summer.

Big Tents Have
 Been Taken Down

San Bernardino, Feb. 27.-Eviden- ces of the National Orange Show are rapidly disappearing. Both of the big tents were taken down yesterday, that of the Barnes circus being shipped, while the Watsonville tent will also be shipped north as soon as little repair work can be done, work that is needed because of the slight dam age sustained in the wind storms. It is, however, slight and will require but a few hours to remedy.
 The sidewalks are still to be re- moved. All day Sunday and yester- day the exhibits were being removed, everything being gotten out by noon.
 Secretary F. M. Renfo yesterday moved his office back to the Chamber of Commerce building where hes will be found until the business details of the exposition can be closed up, which it is hoped will be quickly.
 As soon as the financial matters are in shape for a definite report, a meeting of the executive committee will be called by President Grow, but not until then. It is desired that all bills be presented at once so there will be no delay in checking up.

Philadelphia, Feb. 27.-Mrs. Jen- nie Feliccia appeared before Judge Staake and wanted a separation from her husband, Dominick, because, as she said, he insisted upon "poking her in the ribs with his elbow after they had retired.
 'Is that the only manner in which he abuses you?" Judge Staake asked
 "Yes; otherwise he is a good hus- band"
 Judge Staake ascertained that if Dominick did any poking with his el- bow it was while he was asleep. The couple effected a reconciliation.

New York, Feb 27.-A rhinoceros rushed at Keeper Wiley, an old circus man, when Wiley started to clean the cage of the animal in Central Park Zoo yesterday. Wiley turned the stream of a disinfectant which he was using into the animals face but the rhinoceros came on and Wiley, grabbing the bars of the cage, pulling himself to the top. His shouts and those of persons outside the cage at- tracted Keeper William Snyder, and several others, and they roped the rhinoceros, dragging the animal against side of the cage while Wiley dropped from the bars and slipped out of the door,
