Executive Committee appear to
have made happy hit. Mr.. Rays
Is displaying great energy in pre-
pairing for the procession, which
will be an imposing affair. Among
the attractions will be division OF
cavalry, which it is intended shall
eclipse anything of the kind here
tofore seen in Los Angeles in APP
pearance and horsemanship. There
will also be some novelties in the
procession, which we are net at
liberty to describe.
The Committee OF Arrangements
of the Pavilion ball met last even
ing and organized by electing H.
T. Hazard Chairman and l.. NJ
Holt Secretary. The Wangeman
City Band was EN- ployed to furnish
music and the price of tickets was
fixed at one dollar. The Secretary
was instructed to dispose of the re-
fre-hment stand at the ball to the
best advantage. A Committee on
Advertising aud Printing was al-
pointed, and the committee adj
jnurntd to meet again on Wednes
day evening next at 7 o'clock for
further work.

Names Of Fingers.

Here are the names formerly
given the fingers:
First comes "Thumb."
"But that isn't a finger" you
say.
Well, perhaps that Is why it was
called Thumb"
Then comes "roucher," or "Fore-
man." "Longman," "Leechman,p
and "Littleman."
It's plain enough how TOUGHER,
Longman and Llt;leman came by
their names; but Leechman got
his in this roundabout way:
1t appears that in the misty past
folks believed that q nerve ran
straight from the third finger to
the heart. Likewise, they thought
this finger felt the effect of poison
more quickly and delicately than
any of the other fingers. Thirdly.
and lastly, they made q point Of
stirring up their physic with it.
So, you see the finger had a great
deal to do with sickness, and get
ting we'll, and physio, and such
f! matters, and as they called the
man who physicked them - the
doc:or-a "leech," It saved trouble
to give the name to the physic fin.
ger, aud they called It "Leech
man."

1t was nearly sun'iown yester.
day, as YEARLY she walked iut0 the
hou .e, settled herself on the sofa,
and began swinging her palm leaf

I got well paid for going down TO
the green. I'd no idea that DIR.
Bacon was ever out among the In.
dians.n
"Well," said the husband, "he
never was to any great extent, l
GUESS"
"Well, he said so, anyhow. l
should think he ought to know
something about it.n
"Why, Miranda, you must be
mistaken. DR.. Bacon has lived In
New Haven forever, allnost.o

aud WASN'T it interesting, though?
Why, when he was Toy he ran
away from home in the dead OF

horses, and before sunrise he was a
hundred miles away and had Joined
the Cheyennes. That's what he
said, aud I'll believe him before

never stole his father'a horse. Why,

''And he lived with the Indians
eight years, until they fought the
whites, and then lie went back
home and found his father and
mother scalped on the cabin floor,
and he vowed on his Bonded knees,
with his bowie knife uplifted, that
he would kill Indians the rest of

there was big crowd listening to
him almost breathless; he was real

sudden light flashed across his

Personal Notes Of the Exhibition.

EDITOR HERALD: "Render unto
Cesar the things that are Ce ,ar 81
Is the only apology to be made for
intruding upon your columns.
Thursday evening 1t was my for
tune TO attend the exercises Of the
fifth graduating class of the Los
Angeles High School. The gradu-
ates composed of seven young la
dies aud four young gentlemen, are
deserving of more than a passing
notice. The fir.t address. by Master
George Rowland, on the subject of
"HObbies," was we'll rendered, the
substance Of which was that men
Of positive character will succeed,
where others fail.
Miss Kate Brousseau YVES very
fortunate In selecting as her subject
"Mathematics of the Universe"
which form the basis of the beauti.
full science of astronomy and 9th.
ers of a kindred nature. She spoke
in clear and composed manner,
evincing much thought upon the
question.
"Pilgrimages," by Miss Carrie
Smith. was certainly q fine piece
Of composition and we'll rendered.
We are all pilgrims, each bearing
q cross.
Master Arthur Bent delivered
very pleasant defamation on
"rides." showing that every hu-
man life, If properly guarded, has
chance for success.
"They Say" by Miss Jennie
Greenbaum, was one of the gems of
the evening, and no matter what
"they say" she is entitled to much
credit for the rendition of what
many may term a frivolous sub.
ject.
Miss Mary Foy's "Ruins,' reach
ed far back into the history of the
past and we could not help as we
listened to her eloquent appeals,
but let our mind drift back to the
ruins Of Palmyra, queen of the des-
ert, where the GenIi inspired Vol
ney with such beautiful thoughts.
"John and LO," showing the diff
ference in caste was we'll handled
by Master Charles Bell.
"The scholars Mission." a high
and noble subject, was well written
and equally as we'll delivered by
Miss Ella Gird.
Miss Nettie Morey was perfectly
at home among the "Children of
Fiction" We congratulate this
young lady in possessing talents
far beyond the medium.
"W0man," most glorious sub.
ject, WAS we'll rendered by Master
Scott Chapman.
Last, but not least. "Chivalry,"
by Miss Jessie Overman, was a
splendid Evolutionary effort, reach
ing back to the days of King Ar
thur, through the Crusades wnen u
knight would as cheerfully break IA
lance in behalf of his lady love as
the chivalry of the present day
would drink toast. This young
lady has splendid elucutionary
powers, which was apparent in her
"Valedictory," and we earnestly
hope sh. may long retain her pos
session Overman.
A gold medal was bestowed upon
Miss Mary Foy for having sustain
ell the highest rank in studies dur
ing tile past two years.
After an address from Professor
Klmball and distribution of diplo
mas, the Glass Of '79 separa ted not
to meet again In school room, but
where their hopes and ambitions may
center
In higher and worthier aims"

Lemon Tests.

About six weeks ago we sent to
different fruit growers In South ern
California for SAP piles of lemons
with which to ma Ike more careful
tests. We desired seedlipg lemons,
also budded varieties on different
stocks. Our applications for fruit
were not very successful from the
fact chat bulded varieties as yet
are not in heavy bearing, and most
of those who raised fruit this sea.
son have disposed of the same. We
received, however, half dozen
lemons from each of the following
persons:
G. X. Workman, Los Angeles,
Eureka, from the original tree.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT OF THE MASSACRE.
New York Telegram.
Father Genin, priest who has labor
ed among the various tribes composing
the great Sioux nation, in Northwest, is
now in this city. He publishes mani
festo from Sitting Bull to all just and
sensible citizens in YindicatiOn of the
Sioux Indians. Father Genin gives the
following account of the battle of the
Rosebud, at which Custer fell. 1t was
given to him by Sitting Bull:
The Custer command was part of a
force that had been sent out to exter-
inmate his people. For eight days he
had retreated from the advancing white
men, and then being wearied, he set up
mock village, left his fires lighted, and
arranged number of effigy Indians so
as to deceive the whites. He then gath
cred his braves, and under the cover of
the hills to the south of the Rosebud, he
marched to intercept Clusters advance.
He did not wish to fight, so he sent out
a messenger with flag of truce, who
was shot down. After seeing this man
fall from his horse, he called for the
blood that was to be shed
Custer gallOped on toward the empty
village, and Sitting Bull closed in be-
hind him and to the right and left. What
then happened is an old story now.
Father Genin has with him the tOma-
hawk with which Custer was finally dis
patched. The Father will go to France
to-day, but will return to the Sioux in
about four months.
