The Los Angeles Bar on the Death Of SEN
@8is 81 Fl ator Sumner. 4msr-

/ Several members of the legal profess
sion of this city were formerly MEM
bers of the Suffolk, Mass, bar, and
anxious to testify their realization of
the great loss sustained In the death
of Senator Sumner, they held meet
ing Thursday evening, at which the
following resolutions were adopted:
q Resolved, That by the death of the
Hon. ,Chas. Sumner, late U. S. Sem
ator from Massachusetts, the nation
has lost one of its most eminent, elo-
quent and patriotic defenders, whose
life has afforded noble example of
the highest craftsmanship and an UNI
yielding devotion to the cause of hui
man liberty and progress throughout
the globe. adilo dinas "A % .-..~...~
Resolved, That in him the, Com
monwealth of Massachusetts beheld
the fullest reflection of her advanced
position in the path of intellectual
and moral progress and the ablest ex-
ponent of her views upon leading So
cial and national issues, and may well
deplore his untimely decease, coming,
as it does, just before the proposed
contamination of his great labors.
~ Resolved, That we, as having been
members Of that bar Of which he was
an illustrious ornament, and as work.
ers in the same professional pursuits,
mourn not only the eminent states
man, but also the distinguished advo-
cate and jurist, whose earlier labors
and successes have made him.. to so
great an extent, our best exemplar.

Tomorrow morning at Good Tenn
plar's He'll the impressive rite of con-
firmation will be administered by
Bishop Kip, of the Episcopal Church.
The Bishop will arrive to-day by the
Orizaba from San Diego. The World
of the 18th mentions the services of
confirmation held in San Diego as
follows: ft4A s%fNs
The Church of the Holy Trinity was
crowded last night to far beyond its
comfortable capacity by an exceed
ingly fashionable and brilliant audi
ence. For some time it had been
known amongst the Episcopalians of
San Diego that Bishop Kip would be
here to confirm persons of the Episco-
pal Communion who had been pre-
pared for that rite. Accordingly, last
night having been announced for the
imposition of hands, twenty-four per-
sons presented themselves to receive
the rite of confirmation. Bishop Kip,
who is large, handsome and Impress
overlooking man, prefaced the admin
istration Of the rite by an interesting
and earnest discourse. He adds to- a
sonorOus voice very pleasing and eff
fective elocution. He gave a very
clear exposition of the nature of the
ceremony and the effects which its
proper reception should have on the
conduct of the Christian. That done,
the rite was administered by him in a
formula very much more simple than
that prescribed by the ritual of the
Catholic Church.

The attendance last night, though
notvery large, was fair, the house be-
ing Just about comfortably filled. The
entertainment consisted Of the thrill

Medleys," and the laughable comedy,

characters being well sustained; and
the tableaux at the close of each act
were beautiful, especially the one at
the close of the last act. Alice Vane
deserves special mention for the man.
ner in which she sustained characters
as Lady Isabel and Madame Vine.
Her acting in "East Lynne, alone en-
titles her to applause. OF course, Fay
Templeton was perfectly splendid in
s"Cupid's Medleys," she could not pos
sibly be otherwise, and just brought
down the house. She was encored
with a perfect storm ofapplause twice.
seThe Irish Doctor was we'll rendered,
and kept the house in perfect roer
during the entire performance. John
Templeton did splendidly as o. Gala

tiers were we'll sustained, but for lack
of space we cannot mention them. On
the whole, the entire performance
passed off very pleasantly, and all
were well satisfied with the evenings

Shooting ARRAY at Carson, Nevada.

s A shooting ARRAY occurred at Carson
about half-past six Tuesday evening
between Ed. J. Parkinson, son of the
proprietor of the Daily Tribune, and
b. r. Sessions, local reporter of the
Daily appeal, resulting in the prob
ably fatal w0rlnding of Parkinson, who
is shot in the groin. Sessions is
slightly wounded IN the right hand.
The trouble grew out of an article
which appeared in the Daily appeal
of Saturday morning in regard to the
leniency OF the District Judge in sem
fencing some prisoner who had been
convicted of grand larceny. The arti-
Gle was commented ON in the Tribune
of Saturday evening as being indecent
and vulgar. The Appeal of Saturday
to Parkinson, ST., in language
not very complimentary. On Sun
day the latter gentleman met SEES
sions and asked him if he was the
writer of the several offensive articles.
Sessions replying in the affirmative,
Parkinson called him q puppy, when
Sessions struck him in, the face. Par
kinson drew revolver, and they were
separated by friends. Parkinson, Jr,,
then took up the quarrel on behalf of
his father, and in card in this eve
nings Tribune refers to Sessions as "a
low, dirty, mean, contemplate cur,
too cowardly to meet one near his
own age, but pup enough to strike a
man who has seen the frost of fifty
three Winters" This evening SEES
sions and friend were walking in the
neighborhood of the Tribune office,
when Parkinson came in sight, and
was called very foul name by SEES
sions. Firing commenced immedi-
ately, Parkinson firing first. Nine
shots were exchanged. Sessions was
arrested and released on $4,000 bail.

Propagation Of Cholera.

M. Teller, one of the most acute of
French observers, adopts the theory of
the propagation of cholera by invisi-
BILE germs conveyed in the air or in
water. He places no great reliance
upon the effect of aptiseptics upon the
air itself, their action being, to say the
least, doubtful and, moreover, he con-
siders the action of the germs I'M
avoidably taken lin respiration as
comparatively ,inocuous, because those
taken into the lungs do not reach the
intestines, and because such as are
thus swallowed, being taken as it
were in small quantitiesat time, the
vitality of the system is able TO resist
their action, in like manner, as it over
comes the action of poison taken in
insignificant doses. M. Teller thinks
that 1t is by introduction of the germs
into the alimentary canal, where they
find conditions altogether favorable
for their rapid multiplication and de-
velopment, that the disease is most
frequently and most fatally commune
Gated. He cites fruits as being especi-
ally calculated, some by their downy
covering, as the apricot or the peach,
others by the gummy or glutinous
coating which most of them possess,
to arrest and retain the germs carried
by the air. Fruit should therefore be
carefully washed, or the skins remov-
ed, in times of epidemic cholera.

In ,yo County.

The Independent feels greatly en-
couraged about the prospects of rail-
road communication with Los An
geles. It says: We have it from
good authority that earnest work is
going on both in San Francisco and
Los Angeles in favor of the Cerro
Gordo and Los Angeles narrow gauge.
A number of capitalists in both places
are very favorab1y disposed toward the
enterprise, and we feel quite confident
active work on the road will be COM
menced this very Spring. We truly
believe there is not more promising
railroad enterprise offering on this
coast. 1t will tap the most extensive
and uniform mineral region in the
world, which though scarcely touched,
will even to-day furnish a fair paying
business for such road, and with the
ten-fold increase, greatly contingent
but certain to follow its completion,
places the probabilities of grand sue
cess for the undertaking entirely be-
You'd question: TRE
That such q road is demanded the
following inrlregard to bullion and
freighting from the same issue clearly
indicates: 'sThe Ceno Gordo and Los
Angeles Freighting Company dispatch
two heavy teams regularly every day
from Cartigo loaded with bullion. The
average load for each wagon is 10
bars or total each day of $40 bars
equal to or q little in excess of Is tons
about three-fifths as much a. the
daily product Of the furnaces when all
are in full blast. We are reliably in
formed that at the present time there
is from fifteen to twenty thousand
bars ahead of the teams. The Freight
ing Company have 46 teams continu-
ally on the road, but of late they have
been much retarded in their opera
tions by the almost impossible condi-
ton of the roads especially down near
Los Angeles. Besides high waters,
which in one instance recently caused
the loss Of q portion of one team by
drowning, and much trouble and dam
ger at all times, there is Tor were at
least) a number Of stretches where the
roads have 8 no bottom at all' but the
difficulties from this source will soon
cease altogether, and the capacity of
the teams be increased to an equiva-
lent OF eight more teams when the
railroad begins to take their freight at
San Fernando, which will be almost
imme diately."
Panamint is panning out largely
too, as this item will show:
Reports from Panamint district,
Inyo county, are of the most encour-
aging character. AS work progresses
on the Wyoming the ledge develops
very fiattering features, the ore assay
ing from 5000 to $1,000 per ton. The
Little Chief also shows plenty of high
grade ore, some of it giving as high as
$4,000 per ton. John Copely, Superin-
tendent of Stewards Wonder, reports
favorably. He says he has found a
good deal of virgin silver in the mine.
The silver belt Of the Panamint noun
tains is destined to figure conspicu-
ously in the mining history of Califor-
MIA and pay large tribute to the
prosperity of the State.

A WORD TO ADvERTIsERs.

It is an admitted fact that the SANTA BAR
BARA PRESS is the leading journal ofSouth-
ern California, and has much larger circu-

thrifty families, and hence its advantages to
advertisers are obvious. nov2Otf

"A ter of Southern California, and more
especially that most favored section called
Santa Barbara, becomes known to the world,
it is not surprising that widespread and
growing interest in this region should be

points of interest to tourists, invalids and

While the PRESS seeks to promote the

loneliness OF the climate its almost incredible
healthfulness, the beauty of the scenery, the
wondrous variety and fertility of the soil, the
almost unlimited range of products which
flourish there without irrigation, will be
