Daily Los Angeles herald., 1879-03-18
Attention is directed to the new


double. column advertisement of M.
Norton, which appears elsewhere
and from which it will be seen that
Mr.. Norton, owing to the failure of
Messrs. Godehaux Bros. and other
dealers of San Francisco, will close
out his present stock at prodigious-
ly low rates to make room for q
new stock. Give him call.
The case of the People vs. Uriah
Humphrey, indicted for shooting a
man named Domeney, near Santa
Ana, some months ago, will be
tried in the District Court to-day.
The case of the People VS.. Pierre
Billiard, indicted for shooting -
Jones (Shakes) at baile on San
Pedro street, a couple of months ago,
is also set for trial this week.
Between one and two O'Clock yes.
terday morning officer Lockwood
arrested H. G. McCarty on Spring
street in the act of packing off
some bacon and bologna sausage,
which, it was supposed, he had
stolen from Collins's butcher shop.
McCarty was examined before
Justice Trafford yesterday after
noon on charge of burglary and,
in default of $500 bail, was commit
ted to await the action of the next
Grand Jury.
Our readers will be attracted to
the triple column advertisement of
Dillon & Kenealy, which appears
elsewhere. These merchants are
amongst the most enterprising IN en-
who have ever figured in Los An
geles business circles. In addition,
they are the pink of courtesy in
their dealings. The Messrs. Dill
Ion & Kensaly are pioneers in the
cheap, pretty and practical in the
dry goods line. There is always
money in examining their stock
before buying elsewhere.
The st. Patrick's ball at Armory
Hall last night, was one of those
pleasant social events at which the
aim of all seemed to be 10 vie one
with another to make the time
pass pleasantly. The hall was
comfortably filled and with good
music, courteous attention from
the several committees and the
universal desire of all to please
and be pleased, the ball of st. Pat
rick's Day, 1879, will be long re-
membered as one of the most de-
lightful social gatherings that ever
took place in Los Angeles.
On Sunday last, at the Cathedral,
Deputy Sheriff Adolfo Cells and
Miss M. r. Corona, through the
ministration of Rev. Peter Verda-
guer, were made one. The attend
ants were Mr.. Charles johnson and
Miss Olvera. Our friend Cells, in
all the trusts hitherto confided to
him, has proved true as the needle
to the pole, and we have ne hesita-
tion in assuring his fair bride that
IN this, the most important trust of
his life, he will not be found want
ing. We join with their many
friends in wishing the young couple
long life and much happiness.
How perseveringly and almost
successfully does certain ex-boat-
swain struggle to establish all the
conditions in the United States for
the resurrection of the old Know
Nothing party, under favorable
conditions! We claim to be q close
political observer; and, by all the
Gods, we are inclined to think that
if Kearney can be guaranteed life,
outside of a penitentiary, for lit
tie while, the movement which
was killed by Henry A. Wise will
yet be the most victorious impulse
in American politics. Kearney
must go. Aye, he must go, or de-
liver himself little more in accord
with American instincts than he
has yet shown himself to be.
Mr.. John Waugaman, Of this
city, has invented dry gold sep
arating machine, which for SIM
slicity and ingenuity has no equal
among the many which have pre-
ceded it. A test was made last
week from the gravel on Fort Hill,
about a bushel or so, which saved
fine flour gold and one or two
specks of flake gold, visible to the
naked eye. This was accomplished
by the model which is not much
larger than a candle box, but from
this operation there can be no
doubt it will work equally as well
on larger scale. Mr.. Waugaman
is now engaged on machine with
q capacity Of one ton per hour and
which, when completed, will not
weigh more than $50 pounds.
