Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-05-05

Friday at 10 A. NJ. to organize. The
annual meeting of the company, to
be held in this city on Tuesday, May
llth, at 3 P. NJ.
Remember the foot-race to-day at
Agricultural Park between A. Cells
and Stemmnns, the emigrant boy. who
has run at San joaquin county, Hum
boldt, Sonoma, Lake county, and at
the late Irish picnic. The contest will
be an interesting one, as A. Cells Is
fleet and has reputation equal with
StemmOns.
On Thursday and Friday of this week
the Los Angeles immigration and
Land Cooperative Association will
sell real estate divided into lots 'front.'
ing on First, Georgia, Hewitt and
Messer streets. Five-year old orange
trees cover the track and il is level
and fertile, with plenty of irrigating
advantages. Terms, one third cash,
balance in six and twelve months.
The fire of last Sunday morning
should be warning to our tenants
and property owners. lniiammable
substances, like paper, straw and mis-
cellaneous rubbish, should be put un-
der cover, where accidental fires cam
not reach them. A cigar stump care
Iessly thrown into pile of straw or
shavings may cause conflagration as
great as that produced by the stump
tailed cow in Chicago, and combusti-
BILE substances should not be exposed
to such accidents. Coal oil and gun
powder should be carefully handled TO
prevent fires and loss of life. We have
warnings every day, the latest being
the Oshkosh fire, where careless
match in planning mill burned 1000
houses
Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-05-05
The Washington Tract.

A large crowd of buyers visited the
auction sale on the Washington tract
yesterday, and prices averaged nearly
two hundred dollars per lot. Last
evening Jones & Noyes auctioned off
eighteen more at their auction house,
at very low prices. This morning the
sale will be continued on the ground,
and the remainder of the lots sold
without reserve. The water pipes
conveying water to this tract cost So
600, and yet these commanding lots
sell no better than lots without any
water privileges. 1t is strange that
buyers will pay fancy prices for land
without water, and then when well
situated lots, on an elevated plateau,
with plenty of water on the ground,
are sold, buyers do not appreciate the
advantages. Such men as Mayor
Beaudry deserve credit for their EN-
terprise, and we trust there will be a
large attendance to-day.

THE RACES YESTERDAY.
Agricultural Park festertiay.-The
Running Races-Hrenr, the Favor
fie-Walking John Ahead ia an I'm
prOmptu Kace-vauyhm Beats the
PAGER.

Yesterday there was fair attend
ance at Agricultural Park to witness
the race between Walking John and
Irene Harding, and George A. john
son and Vaughn. The day was all
that could be desired, and we were
surprised not to see much larger at
tendance. The lessee of the Park, w.
j. Welch, deserves great praise for his
efforts to give Los Angeles good race
track Tand creditable races. He has
worked the track up until now it has
no superior in the State, and he has
brought out good stock to test their
mettle in money matches, yet he has
not been properly supported. Instead
of few hundreds in daily attendance,
he should have thousands, as testi-
monial that his efforts for the horse
fanciers of Southern California are ap-
preciated.
The character of the attendance Is
good, but the number should be larger.
To make Los Angeles horse-centre,
tion of kings of the turf like WEIGH.
We hope that our people will wake up
and by their presence encourage
Welch and horse fanciers generally in
their efforts to improve the stock of
Los Angeles and keep up the Agricul-
tural Park.
Promptly at 2:3O yesterday. irene
Harding, ridden by Charlie Smith,
and Walking John, ridden by Lor-
raine, entered the ring blanketed, to
be sweated out. The judges of the
half-mile dash were Dr. McDougall, /,
President of the Association, and
Messrs. Slaughter and Cliff, with Jas.
Thompson as starting judge.
After number of false starts, lead
ing Irene's friends to think she would
be out-scored, the go was made, and
! the race won by the mare in so Sec
onds.
This was a sad disappointment to
Johns hackers, as they had bet two to
one on his winning, and who hoped,
| at least, for tie or dead heat.
TO cover their losses, they immedl-
ately arranged for another half-mile
dash, to take place as soon as possible
| for purse of 500. In the meantime
the pool had changed and Irene was
the favorite, two to enc, without
many takers. In about an hour the

Hermann, the celebrated magician,
was married recently. And his wife
doesn't have to get up at daybreak and
90 to market. When she wants a
dozen eggs, she simply hands her hus-
band the empty egg-bag, and he pro-
duces them by sleight-of- hand; then
he cooks an omelt in borrowed hat,
and converts a can of sawdust into SO
much sugar, and similar cups filled
with Clipped paper is turned into hot
coffee; then he takes the. same hat,
stirs up its emptiness with a magic
wand, and = presto, change - out
comes loaf of bread, a fresh shad,
two pickles, pie, a bucket of coal, a
dish of hash, with natural hairs in it,
and half dozen knives and forks.
This is much cheaper than going to
market. But Mrs. Hermann is not
happy. When her husband wants a
gold dollar, he mysteriously picks it
off the end of his wife's nose; and
she is dissatisfied because she can't
perform that trick herself.-Noras-
