Thirty MlUes TYfltliout Water. The Miller and Lux possessions in California represent millions of dollars. Thirty -years ago these two young men, brothers-in-law, thrifty, hard-working Germans, started a cattle ranch in the San Joaquin valley. They had very little means, but they possessed pluck. Suffice it to say that from beginnings of a few hundred acres they now posscss.hundredsSb'thou sands of acres. Their rsalt-v lie? tin half a dozen States, extending from Texas to Oregon, and -their he: ds range over hill and dale for many hundreds of miles and are numbered by the tens of thousands With these explanations the reader will better understand the nature of the business carried on at Head quarters ranch, which is only a station for the transaction of busi ness on this big California farm . The principal business here is the raising of cattle, and most cf the hay and grain grown is for feed for their own stock. This farm extends for more than one hundred miles in a northerly direction lrom tnis point, varying in width from one to ten miles It is all under the irrigation .ditch At various points are stations or headquarters for carrying on the business, all of which are connected by telephone line. At 4 o'clock I.waa aroused by the alarm of the telephone bell and the babble of many .tongue?. I had not been out fifteen minutes nor gazed into the faces of a dozen men .before I concluded that life on & farm of this kind is both drudgery and slavery. Tho men are over worked, and the manager is the hardest worked man of them all. He doesn't known what undisturb ed rest is day or night. To bed at 11 and up at -i! And the hall a dozen telephone calls during the time he is trying to court Morphe us! And yet the manager, Mr. T. E. Brown, has held tbe position for 20 years. At this ranch there is a large supply store, a com modious office, pleasant rooms for guests, a large dining hall, a black smith and repair shop, and a bunk house for the help. The men all furnish their own blankets, and not half of them avail themselves of the bunk house, but roll. up in their blankets and sleep under a straw or hay stack. During the early morning the telephone bell was constantly ring ing, and the manager interpreted to me some of the demands made over the line. Meanwhile prepara tion for the day's work was going steadily on, and the manager was flitting in aid out, giving orders, answering questions, directing work, etc. At 5:30 o'clock a Mongolian step ped to the door of the dining hall and sounded a big traingle. In stantly work was suspended and a quiet march made for the break-fast table Ham, potatoes, hot biscuit, light bread, beans, dried prunes and coffee were served. The meal was wen cooKeu, ..palatable ana nicely served. Before seven. o'clock every man who goe3 away from the house to work had departed, and it was as quiet as at the midnight hour. "And, now," said the manager, "we'll take our breakfast"; and leading the way, we were seated at tbe farther end of the dining hall at the table reserved for guests. A snow-white cloth covered the table, the dishe3 were of late pattern, and choicer steak, more perfect coffee or better bread it has rarely been my good fortune to taste. The beeves on thi3 ranch are selected and shipped each year: A conservative stockman said to me that 20 per cent of the entire herd is shipped annually. That is to say, the herd increases 100 per cent every five years. Shipment of beeves on all these large ranches is made direct from the pasture to the San Francisco market. Eight o'clock found us stirring the dust very perceptibly on our westward journey. As w turned oiir backs on Headquarters ranch we looked out upon a prairie 2.r miles in width, level a3 a race course, and parched and lonesome rand waterless as :the desert of j Sahara. Not a tree, nor b'ade ol i Igras3, nor shrub, nor living thing. was in evidence. Along this lone-j ly road we drove for 4A hours, .When I reined to one side of the trail, unhitched and unharnessed, and, lifting out a sack of barley, placed a liberal supply in front of my horse. She ate raiucingly, ever and anon., raising her head and casting a look . at me and calling for waierT ve were fifteen miles from water! We abreviated our noonday lunch somewhat, and in forty minutes were again raising the dust on our western flicht. We had not gone five miles before our thirsty equine showed signs of flagging. At five o'clock we reach ed Temblor ranch, thirty miles from Headquarters. It was a hard drive and our horse seemed half famished for water. Temblor is just a few miles off the plains, an oasis in the desert, a lovely home, with bearing fig tree3 and fields of barley just ripening, a strawberry patch luminous with ripening fruit, and. in the midest of all was a bub bling spring of pure, cold water. We had a letter of introduction to Billy, the. cook. "Take as good ,care of these people as you can," ran the line, which was signed by Manager Brown. Of our hospitable treatment, and of this beautiful, isolated, home, and.ofyou.r journey over Temblor mountain and through the placer gold mines near La Panza, I will write next .week. Eespectfully, E. W. Hoag. General Harrison's Book. The Indianapolis Journal prints this interesting story concerning ex President Harrison's forthcom ing book: General Harrison has just completed the revision of his articles which have appeared in The Ladies' Home Journal, making extended notes and additions to them. There is a little story in connection with both articles and publication. When the arrange ment for the articles was made with General Harrison by Edward W. Bok, editor of The Ladlea1 Home Journal, the General was paid for them, with the understanding that when they were put into book, from the magazine was to share the royalties accruing therefrom. Mr. Bok, however, of his own accord, generously released General Har rison from paying him any royalty, for the reason, as he states, that by the publication of the articles by General Harrison the subscription list of his magazine was enlarged many thousands. Tne pronts to The Ladies' Home Journal were more than the publishers anticipated, and in view of this Mr. Bok asks nothing further. General Har rison placed tho disposition of his book in Mr. Bok's hands. The best offer came to the editor from -the Scribners, and io them Mr. Bok gave the book for his distin guished contributor. General Har rison's .revision of the book has just been completed, and the volume will appear in the autumn.

ROYAL TAKING POWDER CQ.SEW YORK Vffhat They Eaise lu zona. Ifortlieni Ari One of our oldest and most high ly reppeetsd citizens went to Flag staff on the 4th and took passage on one of the trains conveying a delegation of Christain Endeavorers; to Sa.n Francisco. Of course they saw him get on tho train, and guessed that he was a "native and to the manner born." After the train .got in motion one of the old deacons, with a gennuine down-east gift of inquisitiveness, began ques tioning him. His first question was: "I suppose you live in these parts?" ' "Yes," was the answer. . - "Been here long?" "Came before the woods wera burned." " What do you jra-ise -here?r' "We raise hell, sometimes." The old deacon returned to" his seat, opened his grip, brought out -his bible, read a chapter and asked tho brothers and sisters to sing a hymn. He then announced that there was a lost sheep on the train, and asked the brothers and sisters to join him in a petition to the Merciful Father fo -lead .this erring brother back to the straight and narrow path that leads to life ever lasting. They kept this up, first a chapter iu the bible, then a hymn, followed by a prayer, until the lost sheep left the train at Flagstaff. But we fear thy were not "all pure ly pious; some must have been a little short on faith or lacking in. some other christian qualification. The lost sheep is just as unregen erate as ever. Window Jfail. Wev Over Fifty Years Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup haa been used for over fifty years by . mil lions of mothers for their children while teething, with perfect success. It sooths the child, softens the gums, allays all pain, cures wind colic, and is the best remedy for Diarrbaea. It will relieve the poor little sufferer im mediately. Sold by Druggists in every part of the World. Twenty-five cents a bottle. Be sure and ask for "Mrs: Window's Sqothihg Syrup," and take no other kind. Winslow continues to improve notwithstanding the hard times iii the east. We hear of seven or eight new residences to go up this summer and fall. There lias been no boom, simply a steady, perman ent growth. The boom is yet to come, and we predict it will come, whether the promised "wave" materializes or not.
