up at the regular meeting of the board
next Monday, and it is probable that
some decision will be reached at that
time. The present ordinance ia unde
sirable in many waye, and should be
aboliehed. It is thought that a business
license ordinance similar to the one now
in operation at Lob Angeles would prove
most satisfactory, and it is likely a mod
ified copy of that will be introduced.
A PEDDLER FINKD.
The case of Michael Rieder, charged
with peddling stationery upon the
streets without a license, contrary to the
city ordinance, came up before City
Recorder Rose this morning. City At
torney W. E. Arthur represented the
people, while Attorney J. G. Rossiter
looked out for the defendant's interests.
The trial was by a jury, composed of
Meßsrß. Henry Moore, J. H. Bebee, S.
0. McGrew, C. M. Parker, M. Hutchina
and J. H. Baker.
The defense took the ground that the
ordinance permits any one selling to re
tail dealers to be exempt from paying
license. The jury returned a verdict of
guilty, but recommended the defendant
to the mercy of the court. Recorder
Roße accordingly let him off with a
mall fine.

many enles are being made at go :d
priceß. Since the Ist of January, 1893,
the transfers of real estate, as reported

amounted to upwards of $207,000. A
Herald reporter this morning inter
viewed several leading real estate firmß
of this city and found them all busy.
They report that much inquiry is being
made for property in this county, and
all expect more activity to prevail in the

county is on the up grade. With a beet
sugar factory to be built at Anaheim,
canneries at Orange and Santa Ana, and
other improvements contemplated, '93
will be a prosperous year.

RIVERSIDE.
No Street Lights—The Orange Growers—
ltrevl-.ies.
Riverside, Feb. 11.—This city is con
fronted with a problem that should be
solved at once, and that is, whether the
city should own its own lighting system
or have a company to furnish lights that
do not "light." Something should be
done immediately. The electric light
company claims that it has no contract
with the city, although it has been fur
nishing lights occasionally and getting
paid for them. The power of the com
pany is obtained by wator, but now that
the water lias been turned from the
canal by the Riverside Water company,
the electric company has been using oil
to run the machinery, and claims that
oil coats more than the city will pay for
the lights. Consequently the arc lights
have been shut off, and the city is in
total darkness. The Herald repre
sentative was informed that the com
pany would not furnish arc lights again
until the water was turned into the
canal. This places the authorities in an
unenviable light and the citizens and
merchants are strong in their disap
proval of the present state of affaire.
THE ORANGE GROWERS.
The Riverside Orange Growers' and
Packers' Protective association had a
meeting this afternoon, at which the
members of the Riverside Fruit ex
change were present. The most im

ARIZONA.
News Notes From Thai Snn-Klssed
Territory.
(Vuma Times, Feb. Bth.]
The Indians who are camped on the
Gila about a mile above town are talking
of moving to a place on tbe Arizona side
of the Colorado river about five miles
east of here. This segment of the Yuma
tribe numbers about 200, about equally
divided between Indians and dogs, and
are under the care of sub-chief Jose.
This outfit forms the mugwump ele
ment of the tribe proper. They send
none of their children to school, al
though this feature dates back only a
couple of years, previous to that time
their children were regular attendants
at the Indian school. The cause of their
going, as an old man of the tribe said,
"too much white man, all time talk In
jun vamos! vamos! Injun ketch garden
white man boiler vamos pronto. Bimeby
Injnn all die." Tbe old fellow had
retereuce to the settlers who filed home
steads on his melon patch. A peaceful
invasion which not only pushes the In
dian to the wall —but through it.
The Clarke brothers, George and
Roland, who have been trapping on the
Colorado, made a short stay in town the
early part of tbe week, and left for down
river yesterday. The boys have over 50
beaver pelts and a number of other
skins. They report that on their last
visit to the mouth of the river the
water was almost stiff with mullet, and
that they extended up the river to
Noche Bueno. Mullet move exclusively
in schools, and where one day they are
plenty there may be no more for a
month. Tbe boys report having seen a
number of deer on tbe trip.
There is talk of a new hotel being
among the additions proposed for Yutua
in the near future.
The first harbinger of spring, tbe blos
3
coming of the cottonwoods, is now ex
hibited along the river.
Dr. James H. Taggart, who for many
years occupied a prominent position in
Yuma's social and political life, died
last Sunday evening after a long and
painful illness. The immediate cause
of Dr. Taggart'e death was a wound in
the left Bide about 10 years ago, from a
pistol in the hands of a crazy Greek,
who met his own death in tbe attempted
assassination.
(Tucson Star, February Oth.]
A letter received yesterday from
White Hills says: Water is worth 60
cents per barrel, wood $12 to $15 per

man'B camp. There have been two vary
rich strikes jast made within 20 miles
of tbe camp, which it is said beats any

It is said that W. 0. Davis has got an
other big bonanza. Tbe Star hopes it

one of the old Arizonians who has not
lost his grip, and knows a good thing
when he sees it.
Hon. Geo. W. Hnnt of Globe arrived
in the city yesterday. Mr. Hunt is Gila

A Utile Girl's Experience In a Light
house.
Mr. and Mrs. Loren Trescott are keepers of
the government lighthouse at Sand Beach,
Mien., and are blessod with a daughter 4 years
old. Last April she was taken down with
measles, followed with a dreadful cough and
turning Into a fever. Doctors at home and at
Detroit treated her, but in vain, she grew worse
rapidly, until she was a mere "handful of
bones.''—Then she tried Dr. King's New Dis
covery, and after the use of two and a half
bottles was completely cured. They say Dr.
King's New Discovery is worth its weight in
fold, yet you may get a trial bottle free ate. F
