The Rev. DIR. Burrows, while
speaking to Mrs. Cooper's bible
class made the statement that one
night he experienced visitation
from the Saviour, who sat on his
bed and conversed with him until
morning, Also attributing his re-
covery from the effects of q recent
injury to the Intervention of the
same divine power. If this Is TO
become general the world will be
relieved from many embarrassing
expenses.
Mr.. and Mrs. Clark were rendered
very pleasant surprise Monday
evening, by the members of the
Order of the Eastern Star, of which
association Mrs. Clark was for q
long time Secretary, on The occa-
sion of the tin wedding of the
couple. Many appropriate pres
ents were made, amongst the rest
Mrs. Northcraft presenting the
bride with AN elegant piano. The
evening was a specially delightful
one.
About half.past 5 yesterday eve-
Ming farmer, driving at a lively
gait and whose only am bition was
to get home as promptly as posi-.
BILE, on turning the corner Of Pico
aud Figueroa streets. struck
against the fence, thereby break
ing the coupling Of his wagon and
causing the hind wheels to remain
by the corner, while the jubiIant
ranchero continued his. course, a. D.
parently unaware OF his loss. This
Is sang froid, par excellence.
Last night Thomas Wilson and
numerous companions, while en-.
joyiny the smiles of the syrens on
Los Angeles street, raised such
racket that they attracted the at
tention Of police officer. His en-.
trance into the house was the sig
nal for a general clearing out, but
Thomas, either on account of
heavy head or weak knees could
not disappear in the expedite
manner of the others, and SO be
was captured, and ia held in bond
age as the ecapegoat.
The weather.clerk is making
praiseworthy attempts to induce
J. P. to distlll some moisture, but
without conspicuous success, so
far During the past twenty-four
hours it has repeatedly looked as If
a rain were imminent but the
wind rapidly shifted again into the
wrong quarter. While we have
dropped the role of weather-seer
ourself we encounter others of that
ilk who announce that we shall
have rain in few days, which is
probably fact. But how much?
THERE'S the rub.
An exceedingly handsome pres
ent for lady or gentleman is q
dressing case; every style is to be
seen in Preuss & Pironps drug
store, Spring street.
Music hath charms to soothe the
savage breast, but for those who
are ignorant of the fact, 1t would
be we'll to learn, from the follow.
ing, that it will not soothe pc.
lice officer. Mr.. Robert Cuff loves
music, and, Wishing to put it into
every body's power to appreciate
The art divine, took handsome
guitar into Sonoratown and en-
des vOred to persuade some dark
eyed stfiorita to become the pur-
chaser at the small price of 80. OIL
course this was q loss, the guitar
being worth about $50, but then
he was willing to lose something
for the sake Of his favori,e arr.
This was his idea, but the officer
who arrested him being of Il prac.
tical business turn Of mind, asked
him to explain his right of posses
sion, and being unable to so ex-
plain, he has been put in seclud-
ed portion OF the Jail, to give him
time to collect his thoughts aud
to the charge of larceny.
Inc guitar awaits an owner ut the
police headquarters.
