THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, MAY 23, 189Y5. 11 JLATEST DACLID NEWS, Albert Gaylord,a Beardless Boy, Tries to Kill a Com- panion. SNAPPED A PISTOL AT HIM. The Ladies of the Fabiola Fete Asso- clation Return Thanks to the Public. 0. W. Jasper, a civil engineer, living at the corner of Oakland avenue and Vernon street, prevented Albert Gaylord, who lives with his parents at 3072 Twentieth street, from becoming a murderer yester- | day morning. He was looking out of a indow, when he saw two laas, about 14 of age, quarreling on the street. Suddenly one of them whipped a re- volver from his pocket and presented it at the breast of the other. Jasper did not wait to see more, but dashed out of the house to prevent a trag- edy if possible. As he reached the street he saw the boy with the revolver attempt- ing to raise the hammer of the weapon, and shouted at nim to desist. At the sound of his voice the lad threw » the pistol into the street and ran. Jasper spoke to the other boy. who stood still, trembling with fright, and learned that his name wae Walter Livingston, and that he lived at 1422 Sixth avenue, He stated that he and Gaylord had been quarreling over some trivial matter. Inquest on Michael J. Ward. The body of Michael J. Ward, the en- gineer of the steamer Modoc who fell overboard on April 28, was recovered and brought wouglnud vesterday. It was found Saturday near Freeport, on the Yolo County side of the Sacramento River. At the inquest it was developed that this was the first trip Ward had ever made without an oiler. He had to leave his post to go to the stern and oil the big wheel. It was new and unfamiliar work for him and he lost his balance and fell overboard. Thanks to the Public. The ladies comprising the Fabiola Hos- pital Association, appreciating the aid of the public and press in the success of the late fete, have issned a letter of thanks to all benefactors. The first meeting of the Fete Association, to_srrange for & grand floral parade and celebration for 1896, will be held within a few days. Brown’s Burglar-Tools.

The Misspelling o ame the Cause of a Big Suit. C. W. McLaughlin has brought suit against the Western Union Telegraph Company for $5250 for sending the name “Dietz” over its wiresas “Dieth.” The varticular message in which the name oc- Surred was: To C. W. McLaughlin, care of W. Dietz, Berke- ley, Cal.: Go to Commercial Bank in Berkeley for $50. Edith sick. Co (Signed) MCLAUGHLIN. The “Edith” referred to was the only minor child of the plaintiff, who says that he was urgently needed to console her and direct an operation which, in all probabil- ity, would have saved her life. The mes- sage was received at the local office of the company in Berkeley at 12:55 ».m.ofa certain day, buy owinq to the change of _the name “‘Dietz” to "‘Dieth” was not de- livered until 6:10 2.

A CORNER IN THE JAIL WHERE THE PRISONERS ESCAPED. [Sketched by a “Call” artist.] with burglary; Thomas Harris, alias Hickey, charged with felony; and T. Dun- ton, charged with burglary. Harris wasa trusty in the Grand Jury corridor, from which the four desperate men made their way to the outer air, and it was through his treachery that the men were able to escape. At 6 o'clock Tuesday evening the prison- ers in the corridor, which is in the scuth wing of the building, were locked up as usual, Jailer Will Lane handing the keys | of the cells to Harris through the bars which separate that portion of the jail from the rest of the structure, and watch- ing him while he Jocked the doors. Apparently the prisoners were as secure as they ever were, and Lane went to the office to spend the remainder of his watch. At 11 o'clock with Chief Jailer Al White he made his last rounds for the night and went to bed. 1n the corridor are three empty cells, the doors of which are left open at all times. Just before the time for locking the pris- oners in for the night Duffy, Dempsey and Dunton slipped into the empty cells and were concealed there when Jailer Lane ap- pered to see that everything was made se- cure for the night. B Observing that the corridor was empty the jailer supposed that the men were in their proper cells, and after pushing down the lever, which works the auxiliary bolts, went away satisfied. : An arched grating of 3¢x1%4-inch wrought-iron bars extends across from the top o%the cells on one side of the corridor to those on the other, forming the only barrier between the prisoners and the roof of the jail, which is composed of an inner lining "ot hall-inch planks and the roof proper of 5-inch redwood, sheathed with tin, Climbing up the grating at the end of the tier of cells, the men sawed through two of the bars forming the grating at their inter- section with the cross bars. A brace and bit seon made holes through which the saw could work, and the job was done. By cutting up their blankets and plaitin, em into long ropes and per- forming a like operation with the canvas covering of one of their cots, means of reaching the ground inside the jailyard were manufactured, and the concrete wall which stands a short distance from the L.n was easily surmounted by another raided canvas rove which the men carried with them. i'At 6 o’clock yesterday morning Trusty Humphries saw the rope dangling from the roof of the jail. A search was at once instituted, resulting in the discovery that Duffy, Dempsey, Dunton and arris were miuini. As they had at least six hours’ start of the officers, it was surmised that they might have left the city by some of the {reight-trains which start during 2;3 nigllz]t,dlr;g ;}lescr_iptions were at once raphe: ints within 100 miles of Gakland, o ©° . A reward of $50 is offered by Sheriff White for the arrest of each of the men. The entire force of the Sheriff’s office was out yesterday searching the water front and other localities where the men would be likely to go. Mrs. M. F. Chloupek, who lives on Fourth street, just south of the jail, re- ported that she had seen two men on the roof of the jail at 7:10 o’clock on Tuesday evening. MEMORIAL DAY. Grand Army Posts Preparing for Its Celebration. The committee from Cass, Liberty, Meade, Lincoln and Garfield posts of the Grand Army of the Republic having in charge the celebration to be élvan on May 30 met last evening in G. A. R. narrowly escaped being one of the list of victims of the trolley-car. 8he was crossing the street to her store from the fruitstore opposite on Friday evening. Seeing an electric-car approach- ing from Mission street she waited on the other track till the car had passed. She did not observe another car coming from the sonth till it was close upon her. The noise of the bells confused her, and before :.lhe car cculd be stopped she was knocked own. Several people rushed forward expe J’ cm;fi | to find her mangled body. She was mgi e, trom under the car and carried into her store. Blood was flowing from wounds on her head and face, and she was bruised about the body. The conductor of the car ‘pushed his way through the excited crowd outside and inside and gave Mrs. Behlmer's | daughter his number—1103. Dr. Hughes has been attending to the g:tient. who is not yet able to leave her d. She is over 50 years of age, and has | suffered considerably from the shock to her | system. ————————— THE NATIONAL GUARD. Orders Are Promulgated for the Annual Inspection and Muster.

PROFIT IN PEACH ORCHARDS. The Apricot Crop Is Now Estimated at One - Third the Average. ‘The wheat crop of the Argentine Repub- lic, according to latest reports, will be about 50 per cent short, as a result of droughts. The destruction of Eastern fruits by the recent cold wave assures a greater demand this year for California fruits, and makes better prices a certainty. Scatter air-slaked lime freely around the grape vines, 80 as to cover every portion of the ground. It is excellent in assisting to destroy the spores of the grape rot. Twenty years ago the forest area of this country amounted to 760,000,000 acres, Ten years later there were left but 620,000,- 000 acres, while this year there can be measured up in the entire country not more than 410,000,000 acres, and the daily destruction is going on at the rate of 27,500 acres. The question of wages to be paid to men working in the harvest field is becoming en important one in Tulare County. A$ Porterville the consensus of opinion seems to be §1 65 for ordinary farm laborers in harvest. At Tulare the farmers who ex- pressed themselves at the meeting on Sat- urday favored $1 50.—Fresno Expositor. The prices of land in some parts of the State are such that they appall the man with moderate means, and he gives up in despair of ever attaining a home, says the Madera Mercury. Itis not so in Madera County, for good land may be had here from $5 to $20 an acre. The soil is capable of raising all kinds of fruits to per- fection. Molasses as a food for cattle is very little known in this country. It has been fed in Europe for years and in quantities, says Colman’s Rural World, gnrticplarly n Great Britain, where vessels daily arrive from the West Indies, and at_times bring molasses as ballast, and therefore at a very low rate of freight. It is usually mixed with cut feed, much as the same is sprinkled with salted water by some in this country and fed to cattle. Sugar can be made from many varieties of sorghum, but the processes of manu- facture are complicated and the requisite machinery costly. In consequence,it has never yet been found IS)rz_)fit,nble to make sorghum sugar. The United Btates De- pariment of Agriculture has done a great deal of experimental work in this line, and for a time the experts in charge of the work were very hopeful of being able to demonstrate that sugar can be profitably made from sorghum, but they have never succeeded. Reports from different parts ef Fresno County, says the Expositor, show that the army worm is doing considerable damage. At the Minneola vineyard it was found necessary to run a small ditch around the whole place to check the advance of the devastating army. Some of the worms try to cross the stream, but most of them are drowned. Twenty men have been put to work in this vineyard alone to kill the worms. A large pair of shears is the in- strument nsed. The worms resemble the tomato or tobacco worm, some with yellow stripes and ethers black. The farmer has to cortend against many discouragements and enemies. Insects, droughts, floods are natural enemies, and these must be met with skill, patience and courage. He has a right to expect them and should make no complaint. But there is one ememy against which he should contend, not enly with skill, pa- tience and courage, but also with red-hot indignation. That enemy is the adultera- tion of food in any form. On that question he has no business to be tolerant. His in- digration should mete out swift and cer- tain punishment to every legisiator, State or National, who by his vote or voice ex- cuses or defends this fraud; to every Judge, politician or pfip“ who gives ui- terance in its favor.—Hoard’s Dairyman. While Eastern Washington will cultivate a larger area than ever this year, the wheat acreage will be much less than that of last year. In fact the farmers of that country have become alive to the necessity of diver- sified farming to secure prosperity. The Seattle Post-Intelligencer says in this re- gerd: With diversified farming there is a prasfiect that Eastern Washington farmers in the future may see better times than they ever have in the past. At least there vill be something coming in at all times in tiie year; their families will fare better, their store bills will be lighter, and they will not be completely ruined if their great staple crop drops in price below the cost of production. Fruit, vegetables, eggs, poul- try and stock are the matters to which the Eastern Washington farmer is now devot- ing his attention, and the time is close at hand when there will be a change in the course of trade, and Washington will be an exporter instead of animporter of all these classes of produce. Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British Embas- sador, has furnished to the Department of State a copy of & circular issued by the West India committee of London concern- ing sugar production. The Embassador explains that it is not to be regarded as an expression of opinion by his Government of the committee’s views. The circular calls atfention to the fact that the sugar industry, beet as well as cane, is passing through a crisis of the most serious de- scription, and expresses the hope that in attempting to provide a remedy the various Governments should avoid taking any steps which may aggravate the crisis in- stead of relieving it. It is shown thar while the production is increasing at the rate of 1,000,000 tons per annum the con- sumption grows slowly at the rate of only 250,000 tons per annum. Naturally, prices are depressed and the bounty system is ascribed as the cause of this state of aff; Therefore, it advises the entire aboliti of the bounty and the stimulation of co; sumption by the reduction of the duties levied on sugar, which are excessive in Europe and prevent the people as a whole from using sugar. Timely Advice. C. J. Berry gives some found advice to Tulare County farmers through the col- umns of the Visalia Times, which is appli- cable on all sides. . The prospect for a good crop of fruit in this county iq favorable. Were it not for the poor prices of last year Tulare County fruitgrowers would be pleased with the out- look. But some of them are inclined tc take a despondent view of the situation and advance the theory of overproduction. Whenever there is another county found that will produce peaches equally as good as are now produced here (better peaches never can be grown than are now grown here) then it will be time enough to listen to the S:o\mdlen fears of the despondents. But there are other resources in the fruit- growing line that our county affards that Pplaces e‘l‘uhl'e County away ahead of thc other counties of the State. Citrus fruits that grow to perfection heére will becomc in #e near future one of our leading in- dustries. The entire Pacific Coast States want our magnificent eranges and juicy lomons and will take all that We ¢31 Faise of them for many years to come at a good profit to the grower. Go where you may and there are no bet- ter apples to be found than are grown on a few of our mountain ranches, but we do not grow near enough of them. We buy at_home all that are raisea and pay bi; prices for them, too. There are p enty of people living in our adjoining counties who want our good apples as well as our fine oranges and excellent lemons. *Sugar beets grow well here, and instead of sitting down waiting for the sugar fac- tory to start up, feed them to your hogs— they will fatten hogs as rapidly as corn. This has already been demonstrated by a test made by a farmer of Watsonville. Carrots yield enormous crops in any portion of our county with irrigation, and they, too, are great producers for animals. I'do not know that the following quota- tion is applicable to our Tulare County farmers or not, but as it was said by a San Joaquin farmer it may be a help to some of us to think it over. He says: ‘“We let our timber rot and buy fencing, We throw away our ashes and grease and buy soap. We let our manure go to waste and buy gnano. We grow weeds and buy vegetables and brooms. We catch 5-cent with a four-dollar rod. We build schoolhouses and send our children off to be educated. We send our boys out with a forty-dollar gun and a ten-dollar dog to hant for 10-cent birds.” And he might have added: We sell our hogs for 4 cents and buy our bacen for 14 cents. But in this short article it is impossible to mention one-quarter of the good re- sources of our conntg. Suffice it to say there is none in the Btate that anywhere equals it and no industrfous man who lives here ought to ever say hard times with so many grand opportunities as Tulare pre- sen®s. The first apricots of the season made their appearance in Riverside ten days ago, but the price, 10 cents a pound, rendere: them quite & luxury. As the result of investigation and read- ing of reports the Pomona Times says that in this State the apricot crop will be little if any over one-third the average; the rune net over half, and cherries are short. 'he peach crop will be large. Owing to the shortage of other staple fruits peaches will likely bring satisiactory prices. In Pomona Valley the apricot and prune fm'pl will be very light and the peach crop arge. R. C. Kells of Sutter and G. W. Hutch- ins of Yuba both tell the Omoville Register that prunes are falling badly this year from the trees. So serions is this fall that the prune crop will be materially lessened. This is not confined to any one locality, but there are similar reports from Redding on the north to points in the San Joaquin Valley in the south. The trees blossomed profusely, but after the fruit was formed 1t began dropping and has seriously af- fec crops. Pineapples grown in the famous El Cajon Valley, within twenty miles of San Diego, are the latest practical illustration of the adaptation of the soil and climate in this county for raising every kind of fruit, even the finest tropical varieties, says the San Diego Union. Local dealers repert these home-grown pineapples to be superior to those raised in the southern countries, and the demand for them is farin excess of the supply. Those now in_ the market are of fair size, firm, juicy and of excellent avor. The chief complaint this year by Eastern buyers, says the Pomona Times, is that oranges do not arrive in as good condition as thay did a year ago, and yet there has been no frost or other apparent causes why it does not. Shippers are casting about for the true reason. Some think it may be found in too much irrigation, or to the use of the wrong kind of fertilizers. The texture of the rind and pulp seems to be less firm than in previous years. Grow- ers should look into this matter. ShiY ers say it is one that fruit-growers should at once dnvestigate. Whatever can be learned in point should be. DRY GOODS. e e A C. CURTIIN. (ESTABILISEED 1862.
