Madame IaHa.

BY announcement elsewhere it
will be seen that Madame Jaffa,
who arrived in this city from San
Diego yesterday, will give q piano
forte recital at Union Hall next
Saturday evening, when she will
be assisted by some Of cur best
local talent. Madame Jaffa's rep
utation as pianiste is worldwide
and her performances wherever
she has appeared have elected the
warmest encomiums from the
press. Of her first concert at that
place the San Diego onion says:
Madame Jaffa's first concert at
Horizons Hall last evening was q
brilliant success. The audience
was thoroughly appreciative, and
was reused to high pitch of en-
thusiasm by the magnificent play
ing of the lady in mon Plus
Ultra.n which was greeted with b
perfect storm of applause, and an
encore which would take no denial.
1t would be work of supereroga-
ton to praise her Interpretation of
the music of Beethoven, Lis2t
Schumann and WoelfIi. 1t 10 the
perfeotioB of art. No such musical
treat tas ever before been given to
our people, If we except the con.
cert of Madame Arabelfa Goddard
aud that was no whit superior to
this. None who were present last
evening will fail to attend the con-
cert to morrow evening, and We
bespeak crowded house.

Turning Sahara Into a Lake.

1t seems that the conversion of
the Desert of Sahara into an inland
sea might not after all be so much
of blessing to the continent Of
Africa as was claimed when the
project was first broached. AT a
recent meeting of the French Geo
graphical Society, at Paris, DR..
Cosson, a member of the Institute,
combatted the scheme with many
arguments. He did not believe
that the climate of the interior of
Africa would be changed by an ar
tificial sea. Its shores would be as
arid as those of the Mediterranean
in Tripoli; but If the climate should
change, the date crop, which is the
principal support of the natives,
would be ruined. The routes of
the caravans from Tpn;s and AL
giers to the interior would also be
destroyed and the whole inland
trade deranged. DR.. Cosson also
predicted that the pressure OF the
mass of water would produce per-
turbations in the currents which
feed the artesian wells in the Oasis,
and might cause them to fail, and
thus entail the loss of hundreds of
palm trees. His views as to the
climatic influence OF @ Saharan
sea were opposed by other members
of the Society.

ADVICE FROM TIE HEALTH Of
FICER..
He Advises the Pilterng of zapja Water fer
Drinking.

Los ANGELES, Aug. 4, 1879,
10 the Public: There are num-
ber of dangerous cases of dysentery
in the suburbs of the city. In each
case the patient is la the habit of
using zaDja water without filtering.
Although some nuisances hereto
fore connected with these zanjas
have been abated, yet there is
large amount of filth that gets into
them, and the water is utterly anfit
for drinking. By thorough sys-
tenn of filtering the water can be
made pure, but without filtering it
is very dangerous to health. City
Surveyor Goldswortby employs
system Of filtering at his house
which should be used by every fam
lily that is unfortunately obliged to
depend on the zanjas for drinking
water. 1t would be philanthropic
act in Mr. Goldsworthy to make
his plan public through the daily
press. The death rate of Los An
geles city has been very light dur
ing the past six months, and we
can keep it so, even during the hot
season, if every family will use
only pure water, good food, and
keep their persons and premises
clean.

ABlG DRAUGRT OF WHiSkEY.
A Son of the Late General Pillow Has a Mar
row Escape from Death.

Robert G.. Pillow, son of the late
General Pillow, who is now rum
ming plantation over In Arkansas,
and who came over to take look
at the Fourth Of July, had a mar
row escape from death not long
since. Accompanied by Aleck, one
of the colored men on the place, he
was out hunting O wild hog that
had been in the vicinity. Mr.. Pill
low had a gun, and Aleck had
armed himself with pint bottle OF
whiskey. The hog was found and
shot, and just as Mr.. Pillow went
up to the writhing animal an i'm.
mense cottonmouth snake, whose
bite is as fatal as that Of q rattle
snake, fastened its fangs on the
calf of his leg. AS his Memphis
friends know, Bob is not easily
frightened. He took in the situa-
ton in a moment, and instead of
exhibiting alarm he turned to his
companion and quietly remarked:
"Aleck, l think Ill try a little of
that whiskey now," wbiskey being
considered an Iufallible remedy.
He poured every drop down his
throat without stopping to venture
any remarks as to its quality.
Then, shouIdering his gun, he rap
idly walked to the house, half
mile distant, where he drank the
contents Of three ordinary glass
tumblers filled with whiskey.
"Of course it stupefied you,"
chimed in a Memphis friend, to
whom he was relating the facts.
"Of course it ddn't,n was the re.
ply. II don't know how it hap.
pened, but as far as intoxicating
effects were concerned, the stuff
had no more influence than water.
But it induced a regular Niagara
Falls of perspiration, which rapidly
expelled the poison, aud the wound
healed and gave me no trouble. A
day or or two afterward, however,
was the sickest boy in Eastern Ar
kansas. had swallowed enough
to kill half a dozen unsnake bitten
fellows"
Bob's appearance justified the
comment that he had experienced
no permanent injury from the bite
of that terror of Southern planta.
tions, the dreaded cottonmouth
snake. Memphis avalanche.
