Mrs. Scott Siddons in Los Angeles.

We are advised that Mrs. Scot
Siddons will give several recitalt
In Los Angeles about the first weeh
In September. She has just re.
turned from series of triu mphs in
Australia such as have graced her
advent in every quarter of the
world, from London and New York
to Sidney and Melbourne. The re-
lationship of this lady to the illus.
trious tragedienne who fascinated
the wits and men of intellect of the
end of the last and the beginning
of the present century, in London,
Is one of the least of her claims to
public recognition. In addition to
being confessodly the handsomest
lady on the stage, Mrs. Scott Sid
dons, In the roles of Rosalind and
Juliet, and kindred charac ters, has
won a reputation as an actress
scarcely inferior to that of her IL
lustrious relative and namesake.
1t has been our good fortune to
have seen her In many of her fa-
nous impersonations, and we shall
not soon forget the charming inn
preston left by her dramatic gen.
ius, beauty and grace. Her Rosa
lind was revelation of all the sig
nificances and poetry of one of the
most exqlsite of Shakspeare's crea-
tions, while her Juliet gave her a
fitting medium for displaying the
sympathetic and emotional cast of
her genius. Mrs. Scott Siddons is
not only great as an actress, but as
a reader and elocutionist, as well.
We might regale our readers with
numerous appreciative extracts
taken from the London Times, the
leading New York journals and the
principal theatrical critics of the
world, but to do SO is entirely un-
necessary. Her fame is world
wide, it dates back several genera
tiOns, and she Is now in the merid.
ian Of her glorious womanhood and
histrionic inspiration. She will ap-
pear IN Los Angeles under the aus
pices OF the American Literary Blu.
reau, and will be represented by
Mr.. E. Conklin, who is known to
our. people as the correspondent
and representative on this coast of
Frank Leslie's publications.

A Tribute to Capt. Beane

EDITOR HERALD: l met Capt.
Chas. e. Beane Saturday after
noon, little thinking it was for the
last time. Monday he went with
other members of the Masonic Or
der to Anaheim, and returned to
Los Angeles in the evening, when,
after few hours passed in conver-
sation with some friends, he re.
turned to his home. To-day we
receive the sudden announcement
of his death. Pardon me for TAX
ing up a small space in your coll
umns in stating what / knew of
him, not only as tribute to his
memory, but as an expression of
what I, in common with many
other Of his friends, feel.
l first met Captain Beane in
Mexico, in the fall of 1866, where
he had come from San Francisco,
with the Intention of putting a
steamer on the beautiful lake of
Chapala, the source of the Rio
Santiago. Owing to the civil con-
vulsions there, immediately pre-
ceding the fall of Maximilian, the
scheme was abandoned. He re-
mained in Mexico until June, 1868,
when, with others who had met
with like failure, he sailed from
MaZatlan for San Francisco, arriy-
ing there in the early part of July.
L next met him in Los Angeles in
1871, since which time he has been
identified with the interests of this
county; first in connection with
the Los Angeles Ne,0S, of which he
was editor, in conjunction with the
Hon. A. J. King, and afterwards
alone, and for some time past with
the Main Street and Agricultural
Park Railroad, of which he has
been the Secretary and active Nam
ager.
He came to Los Angeles a
stranger. The friends that he has
made he owed to his own sterling
worth. How many they were and
how deeply they felt his loss, any.
one who passed along the streets
this afternoon could have told.
He was man of very decided
opinions and very bold in express
ing them. Ofcourse he made some
enemies, but believe they were
very few.
Born in Maine, where he was
the editor of Democratic news
paper, at the outbreak of the late
civil war he went South, in obedi-
epce to his convictions of duty. He
served in the Confederate army
from the beginning tn the close;
first as private in the infantry,
whence he was transferred to the
cavalry, on account of severe
wound in the foot. After this
transfer he became Adjutant of the
regiment. then served on the staff
OF Gen. VIM. E. Jones, and after
wards became Captain of his COM
pany. While In the cavalry SER
vice he received wound in his
side, from which he has been suf-
ferer ever since, and which, 1 be-
lieve, has been the cause Of his
death.
There are many others Of his
friends that could express with fal
more force their deep sense of hi!
worth and of his loss. L have not
attempted to express either, bu
simply to state few facts that
know about one who spoke little o
himself, and which were probably
unknown to others.
A FRIEND.

found that his little boy had had his
head clipped in accordance with the pre-.

he began to speak of wonderful curios-
ity on exhibition in Washington City, in
the shape of living creature with a
form something like that of human be-
ing. Its head was as FOUND as a pump
kin, its ears stuck out like clam shells
on a cocoa-nut, its nose projected like a
figure four from what seemed to be it's
face; it walked upright, and its head
was covered with growth of bristles
about one-sixteenth of an inch in length,
and for want Of better name the crea-
ture had been called the g What Is Jt?
And, placing his hand on the boys head,
the father said, why, here it is now.
Here's the very thing I've been talking
about"
The boy replied, as he buttercd piece

lawyer.

prank played on him by his brother
officers. They forged handbills and
posted notices all about the country that
Or. Jarvis would pay cash on delivery
for owl heads. Presently people about
the environments began to bring in owl
heads, which the doctor, suspecting the
joke, Quietly bought up. The doctor was
the butt of constant ridicule, of course.
and could hear illusions to owl-heads at
all times and in all quarters. After few
days, the doctor concluded, as kind OF
quletus, to buy off his merciless fellow
officers, to give them supper, which he
provided for them in magnificent STYLE.
One OF the courses was soup, and very
good soup. Unable to repress an allu-
sion to the standing joke, young officer
asked the doctor, with knowing leer,
''if the soup they had been eating was
not owl. soup?' WELL" replied the doc
tor, coolly. sit amt anything else!' Ana
sure enough, from the bottom Of the
soup-tureen, he ladled up some plump
owl-neads, bills and all. "Gentlemen,"
sad the doctor, 1--WE quit even. Your
bills are receipted.''

sTeaZies.',

aOne of the strangest things connected
with the fine wooden cloth manufacture
is the use of the common teosze, which as
yet no invention has superseded, and
which is to be seen growing in the fields
in many districts in the West, yielding
the farmer very fair profit. After the
cloth has been woven and secured, to re-
move the oil which has been added to 1t
in the spinning, it is fu2zed, a process
which COL sists in beating it by heavy
hammers for considerable time; then it
is secured again, and then teaszed. This
is accomplished by means of a cylinder,
which revolves upon the cloth with these
teazles attached to it. By this means all
the loose woolly particles are raised up
so that they can be clean cut off, and thus
make easily very fine glossy finish. SO
effective is the teazle for its purpose that,
though several inventions have been tried
in its stead-among others, peculiar
continuance of wire fixed into a leather
band-none of them have been found in
the least to approach it. Nature here as
serts her superiority to science. England
produced only about one-third Of the
teazles needed for the cloth manufacture.

Patience.

Were there no night We could not read the
stars,
The heavens would turn into a binding
glare;
Freedom is best seen through the prison bars,
And rough seas rake the haven passing
fair
We connot measure Joys but by their loss;
When blessings fade away, we see them
tEen;
Our richest clusters grow around the cross,
And in the right time angles sing to men.
The seed must firstlie buried deep in earth,
Before the lily opens to the sky;
So light is sowE,o and gladness has its
birth
in the dark decps where we can only cry.
"Life out Of DEATH is heavens unwritten
Nay, il is written N a myriad forms;
The victor's palm grows on the fields OF war;
And strength and beauty are the fruit Of
storms.
Come then, my sui, be brave to do and bear:
Thy life is bruised that it may be more
sweet
The cross will soon be left, the crown We'll
Nay, we will cast it at our savior's feet.
And up among the g.ories never told,
Swceter than music of the marriage bell,
Our hands will strike the vibrant harps of
gold

sigas of "A Prosperous Farmer.

When you see his barn larger than his
house, i. shows that he will have large
profits and small Affections.
When you see him driving his work,
instead of his work driving him, it shows
that he will never be driven from good
resolutions, and that he will certainly
work his way to prosperity.
When you always see in his wood
house a sufiiciency for three months or
more, it will be more than ninety nine
days, wonder, in farming operations, and
that he is not sleeping in his house after
drunken frolic.
When he has house separate from
the main building, purposelysf for ashes,
and an non or tin vessel to TRANSPORT
them, it shows that he never built his
dwelling to be funeral pile for his fam
lily and, perhaps himself.
When his sled is housed in summer
and his farming implements covered
both winter and summer, it plainly shows
that ne viii have good house over his
head In the summer OF early life and the
winter OF old age.
When his cattle properly shielded and
fed in winter. it is evidences that heis ac-
cording to the scripture, which says that
"a mercelful man is merciful to his

When he is seen subscribing for papers

that he never gets his walking papers to
