CITRUS CROP
GONE: ZERO
I'M SOUTH
(By United Press Leased Wire.)

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
Los ANGELES, Cal, Jan. T.
Southern California citrus grow
ers today face a staggering loss
as the result of the frosts of the
last three days which eliminated
this morning in the most killing
visitation of the white death in
the recent history of the Pacific
citrus belt.
According to citrus experts
fully one-half of the crop of the
entire southern section of the
state has been either ruined or
damaged. The loss already, it
Is stated, will be between $780,
100000 and $20,OO0,OOO. Com
plete destruction of crops was
prevented by heroic work by
ranchers with smudge pots.
At Redlands a fifty per cent
loss yesterday was followed by a
similar loss among what remain
ed last night of the orange crop,
and TO-DAY It Is estimated that Is
per cent of a $4,000,000 crop is
ruined.
The great Riverside district
probably will suffer 40 per cent
loss. High winds after midnight
tempered the effect of the frost
and saved a portion of the crop.
Covina, one of the most pros
porous orange sections, reports al
most a total loss.
The San Diego lemon districts
at Chula Vista and Ell Cajon suf-
fered heavily. The loss has not
been estimated.

the condition of my hands. l could

Cuticura Soap and Ointment. l sent

cure, so | sent for a tifty-cent box of
Cuticura Ointment and some Cuti-

SANTA FE PALACE
Old House of Spanish Governors
Now Being Restored
Ruins of Ancient Town In New Mexico
Show That the Prehistoric People
Were Familiar With Con-
crete Construction.

Santa Fe. n. None Of the most
interesting and important works of re-
habilitating a historic building that
was, perhaps, ever undertaken in this
country, is now in progress in Santa
Fe under the direction of Frof. Ed
gar l.. Hewett of the School of Amer.
lean Archaeology.
The edifce which is now undergo
ing restoration here is the famous
old palace of the governors, which was
erected in 1905. This ancient build
ing was the home of nearly 100 vice
roys and governors who ruled over
the territory In the days Of Spanish
domination. In the work of r~estora-
ton efforts are being made to restore
the structure to it's original dimen-
sions and other features of architec-
tural finish. In carrying on this work
a discovery was made that throws
new light upon the methods Of con-
struction, particularly with reference
to the use Of concrete, that were
used by the people of three centu-
ries ago. 1t was popularity supposed
that the old palace of the governors
was built Of adobe blocks Of great
size. The use OF these blocks was
thought to account for the oxtraordi-
nary thickness of the walls. In ex-
posing portions Of the walls it was
recently found that they are Of solid
construction.
What is Of still greater interest.
however, to modern building trades
people, is the discovery made by Prof.
Hewett that beneath the ancient pal
ace building are the ruins Of other
buildings that We're evidently a part
of a prehistoric Indian town and that
the buildings OF the long lost town
were constructed of adobe material
in practically the same amer that
modern concrete buildings are erect
ed. In describing these discoveries,
Prof. Hewett said:
The dismantIing of the interior Of
the old palace of the governors for
the purpose of repairing and restoring
it has furnished striking evidence to
confirm what has been believed here
tofore by archaeologists of the south
west, namely, that the palace was
built upon the ruins of a very an
cient Indian town by the Spanish con-
querors. Large masses of the orig
inal walls of the ancient Indian build
ings have been laid bare, and in

places these have been covered with
glass, so that visitors to the museum
rooms may see them in place. These
walls were built of adobe after the
anne manner in which concrete walls
are constructed at the present time ;
that is, the mud was puddled in a box
of wattlework in massive our fodr
or five feet thick and three TO four
feet high. On drying the boxing was
reset, and the succeeding courses laid
in the same manner,
The ancient church at Santa Fe,
which was restored to a good sem
blance of its original appearance a
few years ago, is also the object of
no little interest in the matter of its
construction features. Portions of its
walls were Of poured concrete lined
with adobe bricks. According to ira
dition, the rne stone of Brothers,
the Catholic order which has charge
Of the edifice, the records show that
the church is the oldest house of wor-
ship in the United States. It's founda-
ton was laid in 1541.
The next oldest church building in
this country is the mission of San
Xavier, situated near Tucson, Ariz., in
the Papago Indian settlement. There
Is a dispute as to whether the San
Xavier mission building was started
in 1547, as is claimed by some, or at
a later date.

MORE ATLANTIC
LINERS REQUIRED
CONGESTION ON EXISTING STEAM.
SHIPS ON ACCOUNT OF CANA
DIAN IMMIGRATION.

II is reported that eight new Trans
Atlantic liners are under construction
for the exclusive use of the Canadian
Trade. These are being built by the
White Star, Canadian Pacific and
Cunard Companies.
The liners to be built for the White
Star are to be of the same type as the
L%aurentic and Majestic, and will re-
place the Canada and Teutonic. The
Cunard Lines new steamer, Ascania,
has already completed successfully
her maiden voyage from England to
Montreal, aud her sister ship will be
launched early next year.
1t is predicted that the Canadian
Northern will not be slow in following
the example Of the other big concerns
as 1t is a matter of common belief thai
Canada, more than any other in the
world, will be the country of the flu
ture, and the best field for investment
by shipping interests.
An official of one OF the companies
already building steamers for this
trade told the American yesterday
that the ideal steamer for this service
is the two-cabin boat, having accom-
mediation for second-class and steer
age passengers only.
I'VE do not expect that the $1,000
cabin de luxe class will travel be-
tween Canada and England very ex-
t~ensively," he said, but the business
that is 70 be obtained there will be
immensely lucrative, and for the next
ten years the eyes Of the shipping
world will be riveted On Canada. The
Panama Canal, undoubtedly will re-
ceive a lot OF attention, but the busi-
ness In that route will be nothing COM
pared with the Canadian trade for the
immediate future. Panama will de-
velcp and become bigger in the years
to come, but at the present W are
most concerned with the tremendous
tide Of immigration that Is being d.
verted from the United States to the
Dominion.
1.-The farm land Of the vast North
West is the attraction, and while this
flood Of immigration is at its height,
the Canadian Government exercises a
strict censorship over the class of i'm
migrants admitted. In this way they
are drawing their future citizens from
the Northern countries and have
shown an unwelcome face to the peo-
pie of Southern Eurcpe."-Advertise-
