Growers Are Employing Men Armed With Shotguns to Keep the Birds on the Move. Bpectal Dispatch to The Call SAN JOSE, Jan. 19.—There are an un- usually large influx of robins this year, and they are playing havoc with the olive orchards. In the vicinity of El Quito olive farm, in the southwestern foothills, there are thousands of the birds, and men armed with shotguns are employed to kill them. E. B. Goodrich, the owner of the place, estimates he has lost one-fourth of his crop, the financial lox ng about $5000. The Masson orchard ut‘{::vc‘n ncrgl adjoining, which a few weeks ago gave | promise of a large crop, has been entirely stripped of its fruit. At the Goodrich | place a number of armed guards are | maintained to keep the birds on the flight. | and a general invitation has been extend- | ed to the hunters of this city to Join in | the sport. It is said nearly 3000 of the birds were killed there last Sunday. The idea ghat has prevailed for years that the robin was a benefit to the fruit- | growers and the orchards is being rap- | fii alepelled. The robingls a migratory | bird and appears in this” valley at this | time of the yvear only, at which season | he does great harm to the olives. It is further ceclared that the birds are de- stroying the ladybirds and ladybugs which were imported to war on fruit | The Grange and Farmers’ Club recently | passed resolutions favoring the protection | of the robin, and this has aroused the ire | of the oliv An opposite view was take X h'and Game Protec- tive Association last night, and it appoint- | ed a _committee to wait upon the Farm- | ers’ Club and the grange and urge them to rescind their action. Hortfcultural Commissioner Ehrhorn aiso declares the | robin destructive and deprecates its pro- | tection. Olive-growers declare that with | protection the robin in a few years would | Become a serlous pest THE LIFE OF | TAKES HIS BROTHER-IN-LAW Lee English Kills Thomas Carson and Wounds Another Man at Vernon. VANCOUVER, B. C.,, Jan. 19.—A special | rom Vernon, B. C., says: Lee Bnglish, 20 | years old, shot Thomas Carson, his brother-in-law, three times through the body, killing him instantly and fatally wounding Willlam Carson, who was in Thomas' company. The affair took place on the street and was the outcome of the | | | English’s sister, by her husband. Young | English _bought a revolver several days | ago, saying that he feared Carson would | kill him. It is said that Carson struck | English with a club before the shooting began. The deceased had a club firmly clasped in his hands when picked up and with this weapon he is supposed to have inflicted a wound which appears upon English’s head. WILL PROSPECT FOR GAS WITH DYNAMITE How Alum Rock Park Commission- ers Expect to Obtain a Greater Flow. SAN JOSE, Jan. 19.—The well from which natural gas is issuing at Alum Rock Park may be dynamited in the hope | of obtaining a greater flow of gas. The Park Commissloners are considering the question. There is no money available for boring purposes, and many belleve dy- | namiting would accomplish the same end. A number of sticks of dynamite will be 329 | sunk in the well, attached to an electrie - | wire for exploding it, and the well filled | with water, to act as a resistance to the upward force of the dynamite. The gas evidently comes into the well through a flssure in the ground, and an explosion would undoubtedly open the jow. An ex- plosion would ralse the water in the well high in the air, and the dynamiting of he well will be made the event of a gen- eral outing of the people. —_———— FIRE AT TAMALPAIS. Residence of Charles Bach and Its Contents Destroyed. SAN RAFAEL, Jan. 19.—The residence of Charles Bach, the San Francisco merchant, was destroyed by fire early this evening al Tamalpals. Nothing was saved but a little furniture. The building was pertly ‘nsured many thousands of dollars. The fire gtarted in a defective flue and rapidly spread over the entire structure, soon re- ducing it to ashes. g S Planting Flowers for McKinley. SAN JOSE, Jan. 19.—Seeds are being distributed and flowers planted for the floral fete to be held In honor of Presi- dent McKinley's visit to California next May. Every section of the county has signified its intention to participate in the floral pageant and it is expected that at least fifty magnificent floats will be in the parade. Besides these there will be great floral arches. Thousands of dollars are to be ralsed by subscription for the pur- ose.

Danger of Pneumonia. Our old winter enemy, Grip, is at hand, and in his wake will follow his twin brother. What is termed *an “ordinary cold” is usually the first warning, and in a few days Pneumonta follows. The main trouble I8 centered in the neglect of the first symptoms. The latter are more ominous of evil in proportion to the age of the patient. Past 50 years of age Pneumonia is a very fatal malady. The man who gets thoroughly chilled after exposure to inclement weather must needs concern. himself as to the ultimate outcome, especially if high temperature, cough and difficult respiration supervene. The only safety lies in the prompt use of “Seventy-Seven,” Dr. Humphreys' famous specific for the cure of Grip and the pre- vention of Pneumonia.

This is claimed to be “appalling” because not less than $100,000,000 have been pald in dividends by these mines during the last fifteen years. The remedy proposed for the apathy which has deprived Montana mining prop- ertles of local support is a mining ex- change. There are but two or three stock- brokers in Butte. The accusation is made by the Montana paper that “there is not sufficient interest taken in Butte among those able to carry out such a project to organize a mining exchange. This is not only the conditign of affairs to-day, but never in the history of Butte have they been different. What a woeful condition of affairs in the greatest mining eamp on earth, where the pay roll amounts to fully $20,000,000 & ‘year, and its mines earn an- nually many times that amount. On the other hand, observe what is fast building up a rival to Butte. In Cripple Creek over 00 cents of every doliar produced dur- ing last vear from Its mines belong to the people of the immediate vicinity. The lethargy existing in Butte among its mon- eyed men and influential citizens is appall- ing in this regard.” A deal for the sale of the Mammoth mine and half a dozen minor properties on the copper belt In Shasta County is described by the local journals as one of the largest that has ever taken place in the county. No figures are given. Mor- ton Lindley is engineering the deal. A smelter to be placed conveniently is talked of by the intending purchasers. A case which has excited much interest in Shasta County has come to trial in'the Buperior Court. The title of the case is C. D. Galbraith vs. the Shasta Iron Com- pary. The ownership of a valuable ~de- sit of iron ore in the Pltt-burilm!nln‘ fima, near the United States fish hatch- ery at Baird, is involved. any years ago this pro:gect was discovered by Alvin Potter and Mr. Lavery, ploneer prospec- tors of this county.
