A little rubbish got on fire at the
Clarendon Hotel few nights ago, but
the fire was put out before any dam
age was done.
The changing was at work yester-

and faithful servants.

stock, payable Immediately to the
Treasurer, Mr.. Temple.
There will be a series of protracted
meetings at the M. E. Church during
this week and all are cordially invited
to attend them. The services will
commence every evening at 1880.
The "Importan." still lives. For
proof of the fact, see our advertising
columns. Such thoroughly live men
as are the proprietors of this we'll
known establishment should be well
patronized by the public.
Our business streets are becoming
very dusty lately; SO much so as to
cause considerable extra trouble to our
merchants. 1t would be very good
idea to start the water cart out soon
and thus obviate the trouble.
AS may be seen by reference to our
advertising columns, persons wishing
any ploughing done in their lots in
this city, can have it done at very
reasonable rates by J. M. Hawley.
Orders can be left at No. So, corner of
Third and Fort streets.
There was only light sprinkle of
rain OIL Sunday last in this city, but
farther out towards the mountains the
rain fell in considerable quantities.
AS we have already had enough water
for this season, we are perfectly willing
to be sighted in this way.
The ladies of this city will hold an
other temperance meeting tomorrow
afternoon at 3 o'clock in Good Tenn
plar's Hall, when time will be set
for general prayer meeting. A full
attendance is requested, as it is de-
sired to have as much working force
as possible.
The demand for the last two issues
of the HERALD has been so great that
all Of our extra copies were sold out,
and we to-day sent out and procured
all the copies we could find among our
subscribers. We would like to have
twenty-five copies more returned to
meet the demand.
We are informed by Mr.. Armstrong
that the cantata of the Flower
Queen" projected for the benefit of
the M. E. Sunday School, has not been
given up but only postponed for a
short time. Business calls Mr.. Arm
strong from the city for few weeks,
in consequence of which the entertain
ment is delayed.
DIR. Lucky wishes us to state that
the teachers of the various schools in
the city do not wish scholars to 90 to
school before $3.50 in the morning, and
that parents will do much to keep
their children off the streets and out of
mischief, besides comforting great
favor on the teachers, if they will not
let them start to school before that
time.
Great preparations are being made
to insure the success of the Changers
ball tomorrow night, and no doubt it
will be very fine affair. No pains
have been spared to make it the most
enjoyable affair of the season, so of
course they will have a great number
of persons present. The tickets are
sold at very reasonable rates, only one
dollar, SO that all can afford to 90 and
have good time.
A subscriber of the HERALD told us
yesterday that he first saw a copy of
our paper in the library of the Young
Mems Christian Association at New
ark, New Jersey, where it had been
sent by the Chamber of Commerce,
and that many were inquiring for our
papers while they were sent. Who
knows how many persons have come
to our city from reading copies Of the
various papers which the Chamber of
Commerce sent East?
We have received from A. S. Adds
o large number Of stereoscopics of
places in Inyo county and of Ana
helm. They are very we'll executed
and the objects selected with good
judgment. This is one of the best
means of correctly informing the resi-
dents of other localities how we
look.o If you want to send portrait
present to any of your Eastern friends
just step into Mr.. Adds rooms and
order a set of stereoscopic views.
A rich treat is offered to the people
of this community tonight in the per-
Torrance to be given by the celebrated
Excelsior minstrel troupe. This COM
pany have obtained considerable
celebrity in the comic line, and if we
can judge by the programme, they
will sustain their reputation here.
They don't bore the audience with
stale, prosy, old-fashioned love tunes,
but just keep them in a roar with gem
uine, side-splitting niger tunes and
dances.
The Templeton "Star Alliance will
perform here for three nights this
week, beginning on Thursday night,
and offer a splendid programme for
each evening. They have met. with
great success on their tour through this
country but can only snara tima To
