Terminal Island, Sept. 16.—The mel ancholy days that are bothering tbe other seaside resorts by already having come, are unknown here at this cosy little resort, and there is more good so cial fun to the square inch, and more ways than yon can shake a stick at to find enjoyment, and more people com ing and taking advantage of all its pos sibilities than the average attendance at all the other places combined. The damage caused by tbe fire in the coal of the Crescent Coal company's pile will not be large, as men were kept busy day and night removing the coal from tbe burning pile to other places. Seme 25 or 30 tons will cover the amount lost. The three-masted schooner Little Bon nie is at tbe Ganahl Lumber company's wharf unloading 330,000 feet of redwood lumber.

The new railroad tbat is headed this way (the San Francisco & Atlantic rail way company) will terminate at this port, and from my information will be pushed along as soon as the govern ment makes the appropriation tbat soon will be asked for. A delay on tbe appropriation for the harbor recom mended by the United States engineers will retard the growth of not only all of Los Angeles county, but of every other county in Southern California as well.

Tbe boys wish to do 100 yards inside of 11 seconds, so as to be safe stealing bases in their game with tbe San Diego Pullets October 14th, but they realize tbe work tbey have to do, as the best time made Thursday was by Dick McKnight, who made it in 19% seconds.

Riverside, Sept. 16.—That this county can raise first-class wheat goes without saying. The section near Perriß has a large output and sells very readily. The Orange news has the following to say of Ferris wheat: The Olive Milling company will buy all the good milling wheat raised in Southern California at a good price if they can get it, but tbe quantity yet raised is not sufficient to keen ths mill going more than one third the time. The flour made from Perris valley wheat, grown from seed brought from Austra lia, has proved to be a first-class article and the company would be glad to keep their machinery at work on it con stantly. Tbe mill is now grinding 100 tons of wheat every week, and a great deal of it must of necessity be brought from the north, lt has been success fully demonstrated that an excellent article of milling wheat can be raised in Southern California when care is used in selecting tbe seed, and we have no doubt it will soon be raised in such quantities tbat tbe necessity for shipping in northern wheat will cease.
