AGAIN IN TROUBLE.
Stewart Arrested tor Dlaturblusr
tne Peace.
W. W. Stewart, the attorney who has
figured more or less prominently at fre
quent intervals during the past few
months, was arrested yesterday while in
bed in hit wife's room, at the New Den
ison House. No. 316 South Main street,
by Officer Farmer, on a warrant charg
ing him with having disturbed the peace.
Hs was in a state of eemi-intoxication,
but the officer compelled him to get up
and dress, and accompany bim to the
station. It being nearly time for the
Police Court to open, Stewart was not
locked up, but was tiken upstairs and
accommodated with a seat in the court
room. On appearing before Police Judge
Owens, the defendant was arraigned and
announced himself as ready for trial im
mediately, whereupon the cas9 was
called. The complainant, Mrs. Louisa
Strotbotf, the proprietress of the New
Denison House, alleged that on Thurs
day night, about 8:30 o'clock, Stewart
came to see his wife, who occupied a
room in the New Denison. He was very
drunk and in an ugly frame of mind.
The witness stood upon the landing and
endeavored to persuade him to leave the
house, but he created such a disturbance
as to attract the attention of outsiders
for the distance of half a block away.
After pushing past the witness towards
bis wife's room, Stewart smashed a win
dow with his umbrella, soon after
which he left the place. He
again made hie appearance about
midnight, more intoxicated than
before and insisted upon seeiDg his wife,
i Not wishing to have tbe rest of her
lodgers disturbed; the witness attempted
to get rid of him by humoring his whims.
He attempted to force bis way into an
empty room, in which he believed his
wife to be, and after he had almost
kicked the door down Mrs. Strothoff got
her keys and convinced him that it was
empty. A number of similar perform
ances engaged the attention of the land
lady until about 4 a. m., when he again
left. A numDer of witnesses corrobo
rated this testimony, and the Court
round the defendant guilty as charged.
He was ordered to appear for sentence
at 10 o'clock this morning, bail being re
quired meanwhile in the sum of $100.
Stewart encountered some difficulty in
procuring sureties for this amount, but
finally, about 5:30 o'clock, secured the
services of H. J. A. Stuhr and Henry
Norman, the landlords of his own room
at 32'-a South Main street, whereupon
he was released from custody.
CHINESE PRACTICE.
.* Young tilrl Drougnt from Santa
Barbara.
Ia the Township Court yesterday a
pretty Chinese girl named Ah Moy,
alias Guke Oy, appeared before Justice
P. E. King, sitting for Justice Savage,
to answer a charge of embezzlement.
She was charged by Ah Wing with hav
ing, on the.lOth of January last, appro
priated to her own u'e a gold watch and
chain, valued at $80. When the case
was called for examination yesterday it
wae learned that the complainant had
left the city, and could not therefore be
found, whereupon the Court dismissed
the case and discharged the defendant.
The case is one of a kind which ia very
often practiced in tbis State, namely,
that of putting the machinery of the jus
tices' courts into motion to secure the
ends of designing Chinamen. In this
instance Ah Wing, the complainant, was
employed by a wealthy Chinese mer
chant to swear to a complaint against the
girl, who was in a house of prostitution
in Santa Barbara, for the purpose of get
ting her into this city. But for the effi
cient aid of the law this would nf course
entail the necessity of kidnaping her;
but there is too much risk attached to
such a proceeding, and tbe wily heathen
has too much respect for himself to court
danger, when he can, by simply taking
an oath, procure an officer to do it for
him. On arrival here the defendant was
arraigned and placed under bonds,which
were at once secured by the friends of
the complaining witness, who is further
paid to disappear about the time when
the case comes up for trial. The case is
of course dismissed for want of prosecu
tion and generally the defendant be
comes the property of the man who in
stigated the prosecution.
HOPE STREET.
A Compromise tirade Accepted by
tne Contestants.
The grade of Hope street between
Second and Fourth has been a matter of
dispute for some time past, and yester
day the property-owners representing
both sides of the question at issue ap
peared before the Board of Public Works
and gave their views on the subject.
Messrs. Dorland, Stewart, Cossett. Lily,
Cahill, McKenzie and Sparr argued on
one side of the question, and
Messrs. West, Foss, Wright and
Mrs. Westlake on the other.
There were others present who did not
join in the argument, and after the differ
ent grades had been discussed at some
length, the following motion was made
by Mr. Dorland and seconded by Mr.
Stewart: Tbat a compromise grade be
established at the intersection of Third
snd Hope streets, making the northeast
snd southeast corners 93.00 feet above
the datum plane, and the northwest and
southwest corners 39.00 feet above the
datum plane, provided the change does
not interfere with the contract. The
above motion was voted on by all inter
ested parties present, and was passed by
an almost unanimous vote, only one dis
senting vote being cast.
In view of the above, the board will
recommend that the City Engineer be
instructed to present aa ordinance of in
tention to change the grade of Hope
Street, between Second and Fourth
streets, in accordance with the above
motion.
A Course of Lectures.
Prof. John Dickinson, of the Methodist
University of Southern California, has
consented to deliver a course of lectures
in this city. He was addressed a com
munication signed by Messrs. E. F.
Spence, I. Hellman, S. M. White, John
Mansfield, H. Sinsabangh, W. M. Fries
ner, W. W. Seaman, John B. Haynes,
Francis S. Haynes, A. M. Hough, J. P.
Widney, E. W. Jones and Eli Fay. The
communication reads as follows:
"The undersigned believing that scien
tific knowledge is not only a source of
very great satisfaction, but also one of
the best of all intellectual tonics, and be
ing fully persuaded that Prof. Dickinson
is eminently qualified to lead the truth
seeking over wide and diversified scien
tific fields, would respectfully ask him
to deliver, at such time and place
as he may name, a course of five
lectures on such subjects as would be
most interesting snd profitable to a mis
cellaneous audience."
To this Prof. Dickinson replied as fol
lows:
"Gbstlbmin—Yonr very kind invita
tion to deliver a few lectures in this city

Earth's Crust;' 'Minerals: Their Geome

successive evenings, beginning December

News I'roui Mexico.
Editors Herald—Mexico generally
and Sonora particularly has long been a
refuge for the Ishmaelites oa the other
side of the border. Is it to be wondered
at that our countrymen need recommen
dations in this land where politeness is
universal ?
Hermosillo is the Los Angeles of tbe
State of Sonora, Guaymae may be called
its San Diego, and I believe the So
noranian merchants have for many year*
been known as the Yankees of Mexico.
Take the map ot LoS Angeles in 1857
and you need make few alterations to
obtain a general idea of the present ap
pearance of Hermosillo. Even tbe river
flowing like ours bottom upwards, the
zanjas and their water gates precisely
similar to Los Angeles, reminds one of
The view of the capital city from hill
or house-top recalls at once Loa Angeles
in the "good old days."
The orchards are planted in the
close way onr groves once were
the old Ramirez place a few years ago,
with its big palm tree.adobs house and a
big adobe wall on Aliso street, being an
almost exact facsimile of the Huertas,
near Hermosillo.
There are more palm trees growing and
more being planted, as well as large
nurseries of orange trees. A few years
will witness a great change in this vi
cinity. Date raising bids fair to become
an important industry. The nursery
men are selling only budded varieties of
orange trees. All their trees are on sour
stock. One nursery I visited yesterday
had some five or six thousand trees, in
cluding Florida and California stock, and
budded Washington navels, Mediterran
ean sweets, Malta bloods,St.Michaels, etc.
The production of oranges will soon in
crease in almost a geometrical ratio.
Land is cheap and water plentiful.
There is a little boom in orange culture.
In all Mexico the Hermosillo oranges
are so superior as to have no
rival district to compete with.
You will soon be able to judge of their
merits. We send a box to Superintendent
Muir today. The orchardists fall into the
same mistake we once did, of too much
water and too little culture. The land is
so inexhaustibly fertile that fertilizers
are not even thought of.
There are many Mexicans of liberal
ideas who welcome the Los Angeles
orange packers who are packing the crop
of Hermosillo. Prior to their coming, I
doubt if a single properly packed box of
fruit had left this State. The exportation
of their oranges by burros to Arizona has
been going on for many years. For a
few years only have extensive shipments
been made by carloads.
The oranges are distinctively different
from California in having no sub-acid.
They are clean and of floe color. As the
season goes out in January for long dis
tance shipments our growers need not
apprehend any extensive competition
from this favored fruit district.
Some one has said the winter of Sonora
is summer; the summer h—.something
hotter, which correctly expresses it.
We have been kindly treated and hos
pitably welcomed by the municipal and
State officials.
Certainly this is a favored land where
"every prospect pleases" and of which
I may write yon more anon. 8.
