look a drive to-day out through Gar-
vunza , Pasadena , Baldwiii's ranch , old
Ban ( iiibrlol , Allminbra nnd other
points In the beautiful Stin Gabriel
The day was as balmy as one in May
In Omaha ; the aUy was clear ; the
oranges nro fast shadln K to their rich ,
ripe color ; the lawns wcro green , the
flowers fragrant and abundant ; the
hcdgoB and evergreen shrubs nnd trues
In the height of their colors , and the
valley , fertile as any on earth , stretched
In all its quiet and varied beauty
through its thirty nnd forty miles of ox-
lent in the green of an eastern spring
lime. A closer view disclosed the
autumnal coloring and disappearance
Of the leaves of the deciduous plants
and trees , but the farmers were sowing
grain in aomo Holds , and others wore
already carpeted with the verdure of
that which was sowed earlier. The
vinoyiirdidls wore pruning their grapes ;
thu llorista arranging their flowers ; the
nurserymen planting their trees und
the or.ingo growers plowing aud culti
vating.
In this rcunarltablo region wo never
know when It ia spring or
autumn. Our pcuehes anil apricots ,
our grapes and puars , our walnuts and
almonds , and oven onr pomcgriinites
linvo come and gone. It is persimmon
BUiibim and the tomatoes arc in marUot.
The strawberry wo have always with us.
It is too early for lemons and oranges ,
"but lemons are ripening nnd oranges
will begin to bo marketable in a week
or two. The snow Japs old Baldey llftv
miletaway , and San Hrrnardino , ninety
miles dis'tant nnd San .lacinlo some
thing over one hundred miles from out
point of observation , and thcso three
lioary soiltinols complete the picture of
the beautiful Sun Gabriel vulloy. with
its wore of cosy villages , and in thou
sands of acres of fertile lands.
Thin is all very enjoyable. In fact I
believe there is no drive in the country
comparable with the one which I have
tnU'ii to-day , for the fourth time. It
comprehend ; ) all that is beautiful in these
so mi tropics ; [ all that is remarkable in
illustration of the growth of the coun
try ; all that is surprising in th-e extent
of' \ inoyard , orchard , or ranch. It pro-
sun Is a'picturo of a typical Mexican sot-
tlomotit at old San Gabriel. There too ,
is the Catholic mission church one hun
dred years old. Artesian wells and the
mountain systems of pipes supply the
water for irrigation. The iinest .scen
ery , both vale and mountain , the win-
cries , the stables and ranch of Million-
tiires Baldwin , Koso and Sliorb , and not
least of all the ruthless destruction of
the town-lot speculator ana his unex
ampled enterprise in pushing his town
Bite arc.to be boon on tin's drive.
Land in this valley anywhere is
called cheap at $200 to $1,000 per aero ,
depending upon the character of the
soil , the neighborhood , and the im
provements. I overheard an old Irish
woman ask $2,000 per aero for a vino-
5'iird and orchard tract with artesian
water , in a hovel in which she makes
lier home. The immoiibo ranches of
"Lucky" Baldwin , ox-Congressman
Rose , Kichard Gird , , T. DcBarthhhort.
und others , take up u very largo part of
the choicest lands of this extensive
valley. Divided up into forty-acre
tract's , three of thobo immense farms
would support at least 12,500 families.
They arc not divided , but are hold and
cultivated only in part by their owners.
Several once promising villages hang
on their outskirts , gradually dropping
into inanition because no small farmers
tire near to keep them alive. Even at
8COO per aero the land would teen bo Oc
cupied nnd Ubed , if the owners were
willing to make easy terms of sale to
email purchasers. They are not , and
the loveliest valley in all California is
largely possessed by a few rich men ,
who give the men of binallor means no
opportunity to obtain and improve it.
But if they could obtain it , and worn
Obliged to depend upon grapes , and
fruits ether than oranges , or on wheat
nnd barley , in the present condition of
ixll'airs they could not make interest on
their investments. Grapes on thou-
sandb of acres have dried on the vines
for want of a market in which to sell
them , and apricots and peaches wore
hnrdlv prolltablo to the producer. The
middleman took the profits. Nuts pay
immeiiboly , but they are of Mow growth.
'English walnuts do not begin to bo pro-
litablu until eight years from planting.
Oranges are usually a good investment
and since the Chicago market has boon
opened by auction sales , they are muoli
jnoro saleable than before. Oranges
do not rotor waste. They hang on the
trees from January until Decombo 1 , if
necessary. There is no liuslo required
iti their pinking , and after throe years
an orange orchard yields an income.
General fruit farming depends upon
driers , cnrors and cannors. Those nro
coining , and with one process and
another will soon bo able to use every
poach , apricot , pear and prune. Grapes
cannot bo proilUiblo for wines and
brandies until the California product
becomes popular in the east , and in
Europe. Raisin grapes are in demand
and make the farmer some money.
Lemons and limes are readily disposed
of. Figs arc more or lessn drug. Melons
and vegetables are prolltablu only to the
Chinese gardener. Wheat and barley
cannot bo prolltablo grown on land
worth now more than $100 nor acre.
And here , too , thu town-lot ( lend and
the grasping speculator has laid his
despoiling hand , Stakes are hot through
beautiful ornngo and deciduous fruit
orchards , among vines and small fruit
gardens , in fact ovorywhoro. Going

Instead of putting cash into bohomos

Every town site outside of Los Angeles
to-day represents a dead investment
and many a man who owns a tract in
this city is very much poorer by reason
of the possession than ho would bo if
some eastern man had the" titlu nnd thu
obligation.
Tlieso are seine of the drawbacks to
this part of southern California.
Against these are the delightful cli
mate , the brilliant prospect of the
future nnd the return of capital , enter
prise and energy to legitimate employ
ment. 1 am convinced that time will
right these evils and that southern Cal
ifornia is about to outer upon a far
moro prolltablo growth , to receive
among its people an immigration

upbuilding its material interests , and
that the country oilers unrivaled advan

San Francisco Call : A beautiful and
accomplished actress , who never rose
to great fame , and yet was admired so
much as to bo still remembered after a
lapse of ton years , Is Sara Jewell. In
llio memorable successes of the Unlon-
squnro theatre , which is now buing
slowly rebuilt after a destructive lire ,
Mlbs Jewell played conspicuous pnrti.
She was leading actress for live seasons
in the Palmer company , playing the
heroines to the late Charles H. Thorno
Jr.'s horoos. They originalod.so far as
America is concerned , what has come
to bo called "repressed emotion. "
Thorno had been a robustious and noisy
actor , but under strict and artistic
guidance ho moderated his vim , and
became one of the most quiet of stage
delineators without losing virlility
or force. Miss Jewell was a remark
ably huly-liko actress , and under earn-
ill coaching she adapted herself to
Thome's methods. No couple have
since gained anything like their hold
upon thu fashlonablu liking of the Now
York public. Thorno died , and the
failure of thu management to Und a. sat
isfactory substitute for him resulted in
the disliandment of the company. Miss
Jewell played in other eilies occasion
ally , but has never reappeared in the
metropolij.IIor list engagement was for
the Boston Museum , whore she was to
have become the loading actress of the
stock company ; but it was found a little
while before the timp for her Boston
debut that she was quite incapacitated.
The assertion was published that who
had become a victim of the opium habit.
Zealous friends denied this and took
: idvantage of the publicity to get up a
benolit performance for her. She was
unable to take part in thu entertain
ment , and as a matter of fact V.MS in a
medical asylum at the time. The rem
nant of her pride was aroused , and she
made a resolute effort to regain control
of herself. Thereafter she sank out of
sight and into silence.
Miss Jewell has now been sent to a
private hospital situated on Now York
bay , whoru her maintenance is pur
chased by the actors' fund. She is u
men till and physical wryck. To clear
her from tlfo blame it can bo said
truthfully that she acquired the mor
phine habit unawares. Slio had always
mainlainpd a spotlosb reputation : hui1 so
cial relations had boon chiolly with pco-
Elo unconnected with theaturs , and she
ad rocominundcd herself to cultured
people by writing many pretty and mer
itorious poems. In short , she was in
private lifo as complololv a lady as she
scorned to be on llio blage. But un
luckily she fell in love with an actor
who could not marry her , and her
nerves gave wav under thu stress of her
sentimental borrow. A physician gave
her doses of morph'ue to make her
sleep , and thosu dangerous potions
gradually became a necessity. Her bad
plight is no longer a secret or a subject
for denial , and she has reached such a
condition that hardly a glimmer of
hope remains that she will recover.

St. Louis Globe-Democrat : Mrs.
Kate Boss , living with a Mrs. Wilson
at 1 2J : Spruce street , sippoared in Chief
of Police Huoblor's olllce , and , witli
tears in her eyes , told a sad story of
how her four-year old sou , Michael
.Icraph O'Hnra , was being hold
for a board bill by Mrs. Lucy
Moyers , who lives at 11(5 ( Spruce
street , St. Louis. The grief-
stricken mother said she was compelled
to earn her own living by working in
hotels , and , therefore , could not keep
the child with her and give it proper
care. Accordingly she had entered
int.o an agreement with Mrs. Meyers lo
board it at the rate of $5 a month , and
that up to the present time she was in
debted to her for board to the amount
ofa$8. She had no money to pay the
bill , but she missed her lilllo Mm and
wanted to have him in her company
again.
She went to the liouso of Mrs. Myers
and Kindly asked for her boy , promising
to pav the amount due her as soon us
she could get it. Mrs. Myers would not
listen to this proposition , and told her
that who could not gut her boy until the
money was forthcoming. Mrs. Boas
crlod'and pleaded for her boy , but with
out avail. The mother loft Ihe house ,
sobbing and crying , and came to the
police. Olllcor McMulloii was detailed
to go with the woman and get her child ,
but ho also met with the wune reception
as the mother. Olllcer Hammott was
next detailed by Captain Joyce to got
boy. When the olllcer knocked at the
door of Mrs. Myers she refused to open
it. The olllcor demanded that
the door bo opened , and tluO
thu child bo given up. The woman
laughed , and , looking over the tran
som of the door , carried on the con
versation with the olllcur , but still re
fused to open the door or give up the
the child , saying that her husband had
told her to keep the child. Olllcor
Ilammott reported his experience to
Captain Joyce , und upon instructions
from tliocaptain , applied to Assistant
Prosecuting Attorney Diorkos for a
warrant to compel Mrs. Meyers to give
ni ) thu child. As it was not a ciiso of
icldnaping , the warrant was refused ,
and thu poor mother hud made no
further progress toward securing her
child than when she tlrst started out.
But while the mother was heartsick
in her quandary over how to got her
baby , Attorney Joe Furlong came to
hur rescue , and kindly offered to as
sist her in obtaining nor boy without
pay. Attorney Furlong at oncu ap-
pli'ud to the judge of the court of cor
rection for u writ of habeas corpus ,
which was issued. Ills next inovo waste
to obtain a deputy sheriff to servo the
writ. The attorney and a deputy sheriff
wont to thu house of Mrs , Muyurs last
evening to servo the writ. She refused
them admittance , and when the deputy
sheriff told her that ho hud a writ from
the court to suryu on hur , she made no
reply. After lingering about the door
for some time , thu deputy elioritt bo-
ciunu tired , and securing a tack In the
neighborhood , lie picked up a rock and
lacked thu writ on the door. Before ho
loft , however , ho told Mrs , Meyers that

A TRAMP'S CHRISTMAS.
Tor Die lift.
"Horo I nm again ,
"Hollo , Jack , " came
the response from a
number of telegraph
operators standing In a.
group in the operating
room of the Western
Union oillco.
The loud click , click ,
ot the 1 n strunion ts
sounded on every eldo ,
but not with such earsplitting -
splitting intensity as
usual. It was Christmas ovo. The boys
wore not rushing oil commercial mes
sages , for commerce takes its ease just
before the midnight entry of Christ's
natal day. Everybody win on duty ,
though , but the idle ones had gathered
in a little knot and were engaged in nn
animated discussion on sporting matters
when the newcomer entered. Ho was
evidently not a stranger , for thu grout )
of mon gathered around him and each
one shook his hand warmly and uttered
iv cheery greeting. Only one or two
hold back and did not speak , but they
wore young mon , recently from some
country town in the elTete oust. They
did not oven scorn bo euro to intiko the
stranger's acquaintance. Ills appear
ance did not invite their approach In
fact , it was ropulslvo His eyes wore
bloodshot. His moo had the unwashed
look produced by the lack of a aluivo
for a weak. Ills shirt and collar were
begrimed with dirt and tobiicoo. His
coat was out at thoolbowshispanti were
badly frayed , nnd the low shoes ho
were were dingy with mud and worn
out with walking. His breath studied
of vllo whisky.
But , in spite of all , there was an air
about the man that interested ono. Ho
carried his head oroot , if not with
pride. Ho looked like ono who ox-
pocled to bo received with open anus
and knew that ho deserved to bo. lli ? >
manner was not strained. Ho was no
beggar , ovoa if his clothes so indicated.
His conversation wns free and easy.
The boys plied him with questions.
When dill ho { jot iuy Qh. he'd just ar
rived. Where bad ho bocnV On the
circuit. How was ho "ilxod ? " "Broke ,
as usual. " It was an old story to all
those present. The .same questions Jmd
been askud and answered many a time ,
b'or .lack was u "rounder , " a "travel
ing" telegrapher , otherwise a tram ] ) .
How often ho hud boon received by the
boys and a "pot" made up for his bone-
lit oven ho could not remember , nor
yet could memory recall how often his
departure had been celebrated by in
dulgence in the flowing bowl.
All the operators liked Jack. Ho
wiis a good follow , a great , romancer
nnd an excellent telegrapher. IIo had
been "on the road1'so long that when
the boys began to feel in llioir poekuts
foranioklo to contribute , I'.o did not
look contused or bhamo-faood. It
was not charity , but simply
a , return for past favors. Jack
had done the same for many an old-
timer. It was almost Christmas , and
the boys felt liberal. There wits moro
than a dollar in the "pot. " Jack was
thankful and so expressed himself.
"I'm going out and celebrate , boys. "
ho said. "I've been feeling- , little
blue , but I'll have u merrv Christmas.
I'll drink for all of you. "
"Bo back before Now Year's and put
in a day"taid 0110 of the boys.
"But I haven't gone yet , " was the re
tort. I've got to send a message. I
jjuebs I can have tbo use of a wire n
iniii u to. "
Yes , , ho could. No one objected. He
seated himself before an instrument aud
opened the kov. In a brief moment ho
hud called up the ollico he wanted and
boat the address of his nioasa o. It win
destined for a Now York town for
Jack's mother. The operator uoar him
listened to see what ho would bond. The
key was worked swiftly and ticuod oil'
this message :
11 didn't take two minutes , but Jack
rose with a solf-.satibfiod air , like a man
who had performed his last duty and
left the operating room.
"Ho don't look as gif he'd have a
merry Christmas , " remarked a youthful
operator , us Jack disappeared down thu
stairs. '
"But hu willV responded an old-tim
er , to whom the remark wa addressed.
"I guess you don't know Jack. You'll '
know him'though , if you stay in thosu
parts long , for * although he's n wan
derer ho never goes east of Chicago ,
and always turns up here oncj or twice
a year.
"How long have I known him ? Why ,
wo worn boys together , brought up in
the bumo town in old Aliogany county ,
Now York. But that was a great-many
years ago it must bo thirty since wo
started out to earn our living. Jack
wn1a good boy those days , a trillo wild ,
but ho wasn't bad. IIo used to toll mo
that ho couldn't afford to bo , for ho had
his mother to support , and Jack loved
his mother. We both learned our trade
in the Erie olliccs in Now York city
and worked there together for live
years. Then Jack secured a hilualii n
as station a < ; unt and operator at a little
town near where his mother lived. IIo
did it to please the "old lady , " as ho
called her , although she wasn't very
old.
old."I didn't boo him again for several
years , but ono day , in glancing over a
'newspaper I ran across a piocu of news
headed , 'The Operator Was to Blame. '
It told about a terrible wreck on the
Erie , and how three men wore killed
bccaubc thu operator hud gone to sloop
and failed to obey orders to ( lag a pas
senger train. Jack was the operator.
Ho was arrested , but the laws worn not
so slrict in those day.3 and ho got off
without a sentence.
"It was ucouplo of years before I
came to Omaha , and when I arrived the
first old friend I mot was Jack. 1 hardly
know him , though. It was easy to sou
that a great change had come over him.
IIo told mo all about his troubles. .
" 'I'm a little more reckless than I
used to bo , Mack'said hu. 'You know
the old lady's married again and I
don't have her to support , and BO I'vo ' no
one in the world to earn for.1
"IIo said it with a sort of dnro-duvll
dash , hut it was easy to see ho full it
moro than hu cared to own. Before ho
loft mo hu was almost ready to cry , and
offered u half-apology for his 'attack
of the blues , ' as ho called It. I did not
ecu him the next day , nor the day after ,
and then I was told that he was 'drunk
and had gone out of town.1 In about
six months ho en mo back , staid nearly
two months , and loft again as before.
And so ho has kept it up uvor since ,
staying sometimes longer and some
times shorter. But hu always remains
on this 'circuit , ' and twlco ayear ho
drops down on Omaha.
"It was just n yuar ago to-day I had a
long talk with him. IIo had another
attack of 'blues , ' and talked
about the old times and
