the finest ever before raised in that
country. Sheep are everywhere in fine
condition. I .
The weather review of Lieut. John P.
Finely, officer in charge at San Fran
cisco, shows that for the month past the
temperature has been below the normal
throughout the Pacific slope and plateau
regions, except along the extreme south
ern border of California and Arizona,
where the excess of temperature was
only about one degree. In spite of the
favorable conditions for precipitation
the amount has been insufficient for
vegetation in the southern portion of
the San Joaquin valley, and in places
along the coast from Monterey south
ward, to San Diego. The temperatures
have been abnormally low and unfavor
able to crops quite generally throughout
the Pacific slope. ,
v E. Jacobsen attempted today to move
a thousand pound safe from off its stand
in order to place it in another corner of
his store. Having built an incline with
some inch boards he pried the safe from
its position with a crowbar and, having
got it to the teeteting point, he stepped
in front to ease it down. This was the
opportunity the safe had been looking
for and the moment Mr. Jacobsen got it
to start' down. the incline the Safe made
a dash for his legs and threw him prone
on the floor-: with the "crowbar across
one of his shins. ' Beyond the losing of
a few square inches of cuticle . Mr.
Jacobsen is alt right but it is a mercy that
some of his bones were not broken. - As
it is, it is believed the 'eiperiehce has
cured him of trying to move a thousand
pound safe without, help.

-Mr. J. P. Blaize, an - extensive real
estate dealer in Des Moines, Iowa, nar
rowly escaped one of the severest at
tacks of. pneumonia while in the north
ern part of that ' state during a recent
blizzard, says the Saturday Review. Mr.
Blaize had - occasion to drive several
miles during the storm and was so' thor
oughly chilled that he was unable to
get warm, and inside of an hour after
his return he was threatened with a
severe case of pneumonia or lung fever.
Mr. Blaize sent to the nearest drug store
and got a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, of which he had often heard,
and tooka number of large doses. He
says the effect was wonderful and that
in a short time he was breathing quite
easily.- He kept on taking the medicine
and the next day was able to come to
Des Moines. Mr.. Blaize regards his
cure as simply wonderful. 50 cent
