It Is said of California that "fruit growing Is now, and will bo for an indefinite period, the key note, tho key Meno, yes, the foundation stone on which rest the fortunes, the prosperity, of this glorious land of Unletting sun."

The story of his crime Jsas follews: On Saturday even ing Corwin went Into Anderson's gin mill with a friend Clark who was under the soothing influence and had considerable money about him. Tho lucre ho was Induced to turn over to Corwin for safe keep ing. This deposit was witnessed by Lawtou who "smiled" with the crowd in their hilarity. Ho also managed to slip a quantity of drug into the firewater provided for Cor win. The result was that Corwin became insensible under its in fluence nnd was taken home in a cab. Lawton assisted him in the cab and rodo home with him. On tho road to Corwin's home the worthless Lawton relieved his friend of the $75. Marshal Boss ferreted out the criminal and return ed him to this city whero ho has been languished in jail slnco Thurs day evening. The preliminary ex amination occurs to-morrow be fore Recorder Strickler. Some Nfce City Property. Yesterday Moorcs & Manning, the real estate agents, placed seven desirable building lots on State street in the market at $450 per lot. They aro only flvo blocks from the State house, and aro 50 feet frontage by 205 feet deep, with a forty-foot alley way on tho rear. They are just outsldo tho city limits, the line bordering the front of tho lots, and persons purchasing them will save city taxes. This saving will pay street car transportation every year, and thero is no doubt tho Salem street railway will puss In front of them by spring. They will soil these lots oil very easy terms, and thus make them very desirable in vestments for persons with small means. Call at 317 Commercial street and learn more regarding those, the only cheap and desirable residenco lots on Pioty Hill. Transactions In Realty. S. P. Stacey, late of lJlandcu, Nebraska, has purchased a residenco In North Salem of W. L. Wade.

From tho main lino on Commercial street a spur will run along Stato to the stables, where the cars and horses will bo kept. The iron for tho road has not yet arrived, but it is expected in a few days. Auothor SllcW Fraud. School directors throughout the state aro warned of the arrival of map swindlers. Two maps worth ono dollar are sold for flvo under a pretence that a new law compels tho directors to have maps hung in tho school house. There is no such law and school directors will do well to watch out for tho schemers. One )lore PrUoner. Sherltrillrdsoy of Jackson county arrived in the city tills morning with J. A. Lousignont who he took to the penitentiary. Lou.-ignont goes for one year for stealing four hogs. This raises the number of convicts iu the penituntiary to 200. At the Penitentiary.

It Was a Merry Christmas. ' Beginning with the trees on Christmas eve and continuing still, the holidays iu Salem have been and promise yet to be, happy ones. Everybody was glad, and well they might be, for we had much over which to rejoice. First among tho holiday greetings and festivals was tho tree given at the orphans' home. Through the efforts of a number of Salem's char itable citizens tho event was a most happy one for the ldno orphans. On Christmas eve trees were had at tho Christian, M. E. and Baptist churches. They were all pleasant occasions and caused great rejoicing among the little ones. The Presby terian school had an " Elephant " which brought beautiful presents for many, while the Evangelical denomination entertained with a novel program. ' Last night entertainments were had at tho Congregational, German Reform and St. Paul's churches. All enjoyed themselves thoroughly and Christmas of 1888 will be long re membered as one of much merri ment. t The Moody Meetings, To-morrow Messrs." Studd and Burke will arrive in Salem and in augurate tho series of Moody meet ing's which will continue for several days. These meetings will be held at the M. E. Church, which has been made in readiness for the accommo dation of many people.

Charles Perry of Union county was to-day tried before Judge Shaw for Insanity and committed to tho asylum. lie lacks mental balance on the subject of matrimony, and was once beforo in an asylum, in Nebraska. In Love With Ills Wire. "What can I do to regain my hus bands love?" writes Mrs. Carrio R. of Toronto. Sho adds that seven years ago she was married under the most happy auspices ana until six months since happiness crown ed her domestic life; then her hus band became distant in his manner toward her, until now he is positi vely cold Mrs. R. gives no partic ulars but if sho is afflicted with dis eases peculiar to her sex if her cheeks have lost their bloom, aud her eyes their sparkle it may explain the cause of her complain. In this event Dr. Piereo's Favorite prescrip tion will efl'ect a magical change and restore her to health. As a pow erful invigorating tonic, Dr. Pierce's favorite i'rescription imparts strength to tho whole system, and to tho womb and its appendages, in particular. For overworked worn- out, run-down, debilitated teachers milliners, dressmakers, seamstresses shop girls, housekeepers, nursing motners, ami leeuio women general ly, "Favorito Prescription" is tho greatest possible boon, being un cqualed as an appetizing cordial aud restorative tonic.
