The dramatic entertainment to-mOr
row evening will be under the charge
of the English Dramatic Section of
the Turn-Verein. Those sterling old
English plays. "All that Glitters is
not Gold,n and "Wh0 Spoke First"
will be presented with u full east.
TIrn-Verein hall is being prepared ior
the performance in IL complete and
comfortable manner. The scenery
will be new, the wardrObes elegant,
and the acting above the average. All
who desire to see fine dramatic per-
formance should attend.
Mr.. John Lathrop, with two passen-
gers i'm his barouche, made the trip to
Santa Monica the other day in one
hour and ten minutes, which may be
considered the fastest trip on record.
John Lathrop has one of the best ba-
rouches in the city, and he is one OF
the best whips, rs all who ride with
him will testify. Driving sixteen
miles in seventy minutes is going al
most at railroad speed, and John may
be proud of his fast team. The round
trip, thirty-two miles, on this occasion
including dinner at Santa Monica, Oc-
cupied just three hours.
The Temecula Indians have wisely
refused the paltry five hundred dollars
worth of presents sent to them by
agent Dryden. They do not wish to
be put on par with the plains Indi-
ans, as they are Industrious men, not
beggars or murderers. All they want
is the land they have occupied for gen.
erations or other lands if as good
quality. This attempt to pacify
them with baby rattles, five cent mir
rors and gray blankets is too insignifi-
cant for lengthy comment.
Hermann, the great magician, will
appear at Turn Verein Hall on Satur-
day evening of this week. This will
give our citizens an opportunity of
seeing the great observation-disclosures
the crowd of Fair week, and we hope
to see the hall crowded on Saturday
night. Hermann undoubtedly is the
greatest sleight of hand performer in
the world and his exhibitions in New
York, Philadelphia, Chicago and San
Francisco have been attended by de-
lighted audiences OF the elite of those
places.
All visitors to San Bernardino speak
in glowing terms of the new Court
House at that place. 1t is reported as
spa cious and comfortable being in sad
contrast with our barn like Court
House and the lily ventilated city
adobes. A little enterprise on the
part of our county officials would give
us Court House of which our citi-
zens would be proud. We need a
large building, with modern improv-
ments, strong vaults, and fire proof
throughout.
The ladies ofthe Baptist church will
give q supper on Thursday and Fri
day nights Nov. 25th and 26th of the
Fair week at the rink. The Thursday
night supper will be a regular Thanks
giving supper and the ladies propose
to make it the best thing of the week.
The public are cordially invited to
participate on this occasion. Come
one, come all and partake in the good
things that will be spread before you
OH that occasion.
A Presbyterian and Methodist
Church are being bui 1t at Santa Mon
lea. This is about one church to ev-
ery ten saloons and now If Senator
Jones is sbrewd he will import Moody
and Sankey and all the sinners will
| flock to Santa Monica, bringing it up
to metropolitan proportions at once.
There is nothing like strategy in build
ing large cities and q move Of this
kind will give the city by the sea a
national reputation.
