Just before the Hermosa left the wharf yesterday afternoon Prof. Ramus, Ihe noted high diver, ascended the mast and climbed out on the main gaff which was raised to its highest point, a distance of probably fifty feet from the water.

BCALPERS' SORROWS. Out of the twenty-seven Pasadena peo ple who left for the east over the Santa Fe route on Saturdny it was said that twenty three had purchased scalpers' tickets. The experience of some of them was not such as to encourage others to go and do like wise, for before the train had reached San Bernardino many of the purchasers of these tickets were Informed that they would have to pay full fare or get oft. The company had spotters on the train and they looated the tickets. The train waited over time at San Bernardino while the luckless passengers telegraphed for money, some of them at least, who hadn't prepared for such an emergency. Most of the passengers In this plight were ladles and they had quite a time getting started again. The scalpers refunded the money after wards so that the purchasers of the tick ets were not out anything, but they failed (o go east for $21 instead of $25 as they had figured on doing. SCHOOL STATISTICS The excellence of Pasadena's public schools has often been made a subject of comment by our eastern visitors, and many have said they were equal to any In the country. The annual report of the board of trustees will be out in a few days, and meantime, as showing what it costs to keep up the schools, the following figures will be found interesting: RECEIPTS Balance on hand June 30, 1896 $28,800.13 Apportioned to state fund, June 30, 1597 22,131.50 Apportioned to county fund 15,740.10 Apportioned to library fund 100.00 Apportioned to special fund 11.11 Apportioned to high school fund.. 10,010.85 Received from entertainments .... 135.DS Received from Tuition , 550.50 Outstanding orders to new account 10.10 Total $71,990.27 DISBUR9EMENTS Teachers In high school $6,888.33 Teachers in grammar schools 30,876.92 Janitors 3,557.00 General expenses of graded schools 7,021.66 General expenses of high school.. 812.40 Balance for material and work on Lincoln schoolhouse 5,529.22 Balance In county treasury to new account .'. 17,304.74 Total $71,990.27 A LIVELY BLAZE One of the liveliest fires Pasadena has seen for many a day was that which broke out tonight about nine oclock In the White cash grocery on East Colorado street, on the corner next to the Southern Pacific depot. The Are department responded promptly, but before the department had arrived a large crowd of men and boys were on hand and soon the street was almost blocked with people and men were carrying out goods from the store as fast as possible. The fire had reached such an advanced stage before anybody saw it that it was at once apparent that the store and contents could not be saved. Originating in the oil room in the rear Us progress was exceedingly rapid and the department did well to save the adjoining buildings, the first three of which being light frame structures until the drug store of Dr. T. I. Rigg Is reached which is of brick, and for a time It looked very much as though ev erything would have to go up to that point, but by well directed streams of water all were saved except the structure where the fire originated. The origin of the fire is a mystery, particularly in view of the fact that Officer Freeman passed the place only twenty minutes before the alarm was turned in and at that time, ev erything was all right. Of course starting as it did in the oil room. Its progress would naturally be rapid, but when the crowd arrived at the scene, which is only a block from the center of business where men and boys were congregated, the place was one mass of flames from one end to the other, though the fire was principally on the inside of the building and had not yet burst through except in one or two places. Mr. Burnham, the proprietor of the store, was at lodge meeting. So was Chief Turbett of the fire department, and many other citizens, who lost no time in getting out. The building with the meat market of Henry Newby next door, be ORANGE COUNTY SANTA ANA SANTA ANA, July 19.—(Regular Corre spondence.) J. M. Bagwell was arrested last night on a warrant charging him with assault with a deadly weapon. The war rant was issued at the instance of an old man named Dugan, who tells a rather strange story of the circumstances which led to the assault. He says Bagwell, with whom he had been living for the past eight months, was a persistent borrower and owes him for six months' work. Last night, he says, Bagwell followed him out on West Fifth street, and, after being re fused a loan, took a large rock from his pocket and struck him on the head with it. That Dugan was hit a terrific blow with something the:?? is no doubt, for when brought to town a. raping scalp wound'was found on the back of his head. Bagwell enters a sweeping contradiction of Dugan's version of the affair. He claims that Dugan owed, him money ,and that when asked to liquidate the old man pelted him with rocks. After dodg'ng several of the mis siles he he gently slapped his assailant over as an act of self-defense. Both men *were somewhat under the influence of liquor when the trouble occurred. Bagwell is In jail awaiting trial under bonds of $500. He will have his preliminary hearing at 2 otclock tomorrow. Frank L. Anderson, secretary of the Sll SANTA BARBARA COUNTY SANTA BARBARA SANTA BARBARA. July 19.—(Regular Correspondence.) Mrs. John W.

Situated In a deep moun tain canyon, twenty miles from nowhere— or, rather, Ventura—the summer visitor "finds himself at once in the wilderness, and yet at the same time In touch with civilization, for here are the electric light, daily malls, etc., while still the deer roam, the steep hills and are frequently seen even from the hotel piazza, and the moun tain quail scuttle through the underbrush at the sound Of approaching footsteps. The deer season opened, on the 15th and several have, already been brought Into camp. But little hunting has yet been done, the majority of the male Inhabitants of the camp seeming to prefer a comfort able hammock by the babbling brook or a unlet game of whist to working off super fluous flesh climbing hills from 1000 to 3000 feet high and dodging rattlesnakes in order to get a shot at a deer. But to those who go after them the deer are sure to be seen, and sometimes potted. Fishing in the stream Is about played out, the hog with a desired reputation for a big catch having got in his work and cleaned out nearly all the trout. But besides the attractions for the sports man, the springs offer an ideal place for enjoying the dolce far nlente. Every day is like the other, a bath in the delightfully soft hot sulphur, a snooze in a hammock rocking in the wind under a shady tree, a short dance In the pavilion at night and the tired pleasure seeker goes- to bed and his dreams are soothed by the noise of the brook talking to itself as it hurries down toward the sea. The Herald arrives every evening, and proves a most welcome and popular visitor. Among those who are at present stopping at the camp are: Jacob Adloff and wife, SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY SAN BERNARDINO SAN BERNARDINO. July 19.—(Regular I Correspondence.) Sam W. Barnes of the i !

Mr. RIVERSIDE COUNTY RIVERSIDE RIVERSIDE, July 19.—(Regular Corre spondence.) Rev. G. A. Cleaveland, pastor of the First Baptist church, preached last night on "Forty-Room Saloons In a Pro hibition Town." He had a large congrega tion and the sermon is the talk of the town today. He reviewed the recent municipal legislation with reference to the liquor business in Riverside, showing that the effect of the last amendment to the pro hibition ordinance was to remove the re THE ONE CENT RATE B. F. Allen Is Very Pleased With the Result B. F. Allen, chairman of the citrus tariff delegation sent by the California orange growers' citrus tariff commis sion, reached Los Angeles yesterday morning from Washington. Mr. Allen, when seen yesterday noon, expressed himself as much elated over the success of the committee in getting the 1-cent a pound rate placed on citrus fruits. He says he left Washington with the full assurance from parties on the Inside that the 1 cent rate as reported on by the senate would not be changed by either the conference or the house, which as surance was confirmed by yesterday's dispatches. Mr. Allen Is a citrus grower at Covina, but he came originally from lowa. He ia well acquainted with all the western representativesand he claims that it was through lowa's influence that the 1 cent schedule was carried. He stated that the citrus tariff committee or delegation at Washington was supported better than any other representation there and the moral support in the way of documents, etc., by the local committee here and the chamber of commerce was a backing that nobody could beat. The manner in which the work was carried on frightened the Italians and other foreigners until they gave up the fight, saying they could not resist the pressure o/ such financial and documen tary backing—which goes to prove that a Judicious and adroit bluff has Its uses, for there was considerably less than $7000 spent on the whole transaction and that was used in defraying ths actual expenses of the delegates and not for buying favors. The only delegates now on the ground at Washington are Messrs. Snow and McLachlan, who will stay there until President McKinley has affixed his signature to the bill. Mr. Allen has recently been appointed by the president commissioner of for estry in California, with full authority to check all kinds of devastation, such as fires, etc., in the forests on. the re serves, and to hunt out and prosecute the offenders to the full limit of the law. Mr. Allen will be found at his desk in the land department office on New High street after this date.

That this benignant cordial and depurent is a far more reliable remedy than colchlcum and other poisons used to expel the rheumatic virus from the blood, Is a fact that ex perience has satisfactorily demonstrated. It also enjoys the advantage of being—un like them—perfectly safe. With many persons a certain predisposition to rheu matism exists, which renders them liable to its attacks after exposure in wet weath er, to currents of air, changes of tempera ture, or to cold when the body Is hot. Such persons should take a wine glass or two of the Bitters as soon as possible after in curring risk from the above causes, as this superb protective effectually nullifies the hurtlul influence. For the functional de rangements which accompany rheumatism, such as colic, spasms in the stomach, palpitation of the heart, Imperfect diges tion, etc., the Bitters is also a most useful remedy. It is only necessary in obstinate cases to use it with persistency.
