that splendid fitting suit made; and
astonishment was depicted on every

New Court House.

EDITOR HERALD: The Taxpayers
of this county are much pleased 1T the
stand you have taken against the neac
job in the new court house proposed.
1t may be true that the present court
house is located in an improper situ-
alton, but it is tolerably comfortable
house. 1t is notorious that it was
originally Il scandalous job, but it
ought to suffice for the present. The
house will do well enough for the next
ten years, and until the debt and taxes
of the county are rendered less bur-
densome by the increase of the popu-
latiOn and wealth of the county. 1t
might be well enough to pass an act
of the Legislature authorizing the Su-
pervisors to sell the present court
house and build new one on the
county lot, but limiting the expense
to the proceeds of the sale of the pres.
ent house and lot. This might furnish
sufficient funds for new house. This
might not furnish sufficient funds for
a new house, but would cut off the con-
templated job of those who wish to
purchase another lot and erect an eX-
travagant building. 1t is said there
are parties who will take the present
house and lot and contract to erect a
new house for it. Any proposed law
ought to prohibit any further debt in
relation to the court house.

A general discussion followed on the neces-
sity of new school houses. he Board were

school accom- nodations at the lowest posi-.
BILE cost to the tax payer.
An order for Sl45 was drawn 10 pay the bal

this being q loan from the Library fund, un-

Quite severe earthquake shook up the

Monday there was another slight one. 1t is

son, so far as we have heard.
Mr.. John Belshaw, of Cerro Gordo, dropped
in on us the other evening, and from him we
learn that the Belshaw furnace is kept rum

than the Union. He Is working the Buena

is yet idle, but Mr. Belshaw is confident diff

kbout School Teachers.

We have recive1 the following COM
munication with request to publish:
Section 1857 of the Political Code
reads as follows:
an cities having graded schools.
beginners shall be taught, for the first
two years, by teachers who have had
at least four years experience; and
such teachers shall rank, in point of
salary, with those of the first grade"
Teachers of the first grade in this
city receive one hundred dollars per
month; and the same salary is paid to
two of the teachers of beginners-Mrs.
Du Bois and Miss Lucky.
Mrs. Parker presented her bill to the
Board of Education for the same sala-
ry paid these two teachers, and all the
teachers of the first grade. The Board
rejected the bill, and now send her the
following:
ITO Mrs. Flora A. Parker, Los An
geles: Madam am instructed by
the Board Of Education to inform you
that they have dispensed with your
services as teacher in L. A. schools. ]

Delightful hour, when one may lay
And stretch, and gap, and wink,
With nothing much to do or say
But Just to lay and think,
And gap and stretch and blink,
And listen to the patterng rain.
And wink, and wink, ana wink.
But hark! What melody Is this
Salutes his conscious ear,
To moisten up his morning bliss
With something. ike tear"

Humming with patriotic zeal

What fragrance fills the air,
From Java's sea-girt isle along

Bereftof every care,

The rain drops patt ering there.
