Loss ON ORANGE CROP
MAY BE 100000
BIightjng Frost Does Greal
Damage in California

Los Angeles, Jan. Cal, II. - Every
acre of oranges and lemons from San
Bernardino to Los Angeles has been
frozen was the report that came to,
night from Pomona, centre of one of
the heaviest producing sections of the
citrus fruit belt Only a fifth of the
crop may be salvaged, it was asserted.
If this be true, the total loss on 1907
600 acres of fruit will amount close to
$4O,000,000. More conservative esti-
mates, however, figured the total dam
age at $2O,0OOOOO. Between $4,000 900
and $8,000,O00 of this sum will be the
loss to railroads in curtailed freight
receipts. The Weather Bureau issued
bulletin tonight that the worst of the
cold wave had passed
ANVIL uih6 " SlOWSIS d SuuutH re-
turn to the warmth of normal winter
conditions would irreparably damage
fruit which might irreparably damage
fruit which might be still in such con-
dition that a gradual rise of tempera-
ture would leave it in marketable
shape. This additional loss would
mean practically the ruin of the citrus
crop, the value of which has been plac-
ed at $5,OO0,OOO
Last years crop netted the growers
$35,000,000 Eleven millions went to
the railroads in freight and refrigera-
tor charges. At the beginning of the
season this years crop value was esti-
mated at $5O,OOO,OOO.
Actual losses to both growers and
railroads, however, will be dependent
to a certain extent on the attitude of
the government toward the shipment
of slightly damaged fruit.

BUILDING OF
HOUSES TO
BE ACTIVE
DURING THE CURRENT YEAR
Such is the Opinion Of Real
Estate Men

Americas real estate men and others
who observe conditions closely express
The belief that this year will be he
best one in a decade in the way of
house building here and in building
improvements generally.
1t is known that many residences
have been contracted for already, and
when the early spring season opens
and weather conditions improve the
carpenter, bricklayer and painter are
going to be the busiest of the toilers
here. Out on the Southside, on Brook
Ign Heights and in East Americas
many new dwellings will be erected,
either for homes or for renting pur-
poses, and there is a constant demand
for both kinds.
The year just, closed was an ex-
ceptionally good one in the way Of
home-building here, as evidenced By
the very large number completed in
every part of the city, but with con-
stantly growing demand for dwelling
houses in Americas 1913 will probably
prove record-breaker in this line.

CANDIDATES ARE BUSY;
VOTERS ARE REGISTERING
Yesterday Was Big Day With
Candidates

Yesterday proved field day for the
several candidates for the office OF
sheriff, and all were upon the JOB
both early and late and buttonholed
the voter upon every corner. The race
grows interesting as the campaign
lengthens and, imbued with the hops
that springs eternal, each Of the three
candidates appears confident of being
one upon whom a majority of the yot-
ers will centre upon the day Of the
election.
Registration continues, and with the
interest manifested generally in the
sheriff's race it is expected that the
new registration list will be very
large one. The date of election has
not yet been announced, as it is de-
sired to afford as great opportunity as
possible for all the voters to register
and this they are doing rapidly.

of high SCHOOL, grade is explained, by
the fact that no correction has been
made for nonresident pupils who pay
tuition or who are transferred TO the
city. The percentages corrected for
this item are shown in brackets. The
smaller number of boys and girls in
the eighth grade is due to the fact
that many pupils complete the seventh
and eighth grades in the Garfield
school in one ana a half years.
This statistical study of the Rich
mond public schools reveals the fact
that while the conditions. so far as
elimination and retardation are CON
cerned. are better here than in the
average city of the United States.
there is still room for Improvement
along these lines The factors, al
ready mentioned in part, that lead to
this Improvement are more regular at
tendance of pupils, a better adapted
course of study. better health condi-
lions in the community, flexible promo
ton and grading, better methods of in
struction, smaller classes IN some of

SENDS INNER LIFE"
THROUGH u, S. MAIL
Ottoman Ear Adhurst Hanish
to Face Most Serious
Charge.

CHICAGO, Nov. 19.-Otoman Ear,
Adhurst Hanish, high priest of the
Sun-k1ssed Purple Robes, bridegroom
of the Sun, Moon and Stars, self-ap-
pointed savior of the Universe, today
planned his defense against the charge
of violating one of the most exacting
and most feared federal laws. He will
go on trial before the federal court
here tomorrow charged with sending
his book Of Inner Life" and other lit
erature which the government alleges
is improper, through the U. S. mails.
The attorneys for the Sun-priest today
failed in their efforts to obtain long
postponement of the case. Federal
Judge Mack ordered that the trial
must begin tomorrow.
The delay until tomorrow was grant
ed by the court on the plea that five
important witnesses are missing. They
were named as Richard E. Hanisch,
of Milwaukee, who claims that the
Sun Chief who christened himself
"Hanish" is his son: Billy" Lindsay,
boy student under Hanish, who is be
heved to have been secretly sent to
Canada, Mrs. William Lindsay, the
boys mother, and one other boy and
young woman whose names were kept
secret
Postoffice Inspectors today were
seeking these witnesses. Without their
testimony, the government attorneys
declared. the sensational charges
against Hanish will be weakened.

of boys and girls separately Of each
age in the city public schools. 1t is
radically seen from this table that
about 175 boys and an equal number
of girls enter the Richmond schools
each year Most of these remain in
school until the fourteenth year, when
the number begins to fail off, rather
more rapidly for boys than for girls.
Less than half the boys remain at six
teen, and slightly more than half of
the girls.
Using IT'S as the number of boys
and also of girls who enter school
each year, the last row (horizontaD
of Tables l and shows the percent
age of this entering group TO be found
in each grade in school. The large
percentage is the first grade, $50 for
the boys and 125 for the girls, means
that the average chile requires nearly
year and half to complete this
grade. All of the entering group 600
per cent? complete the fifth grade. A
much larger percentage than usual re-
mains to complete the high school in
Richmond. The increase in percentage
