New City Bonds.
To the Evening Light:


In the message of Mayor French, His Honor
states: mo more streets should be improved
without first constructing the necessary sew
ers. Our Taxpayers should, without delay,
authorize by vote sufficient amount of bonds
to enable us to expedite this important work"
This is all very well, and the writer fully en-
dorses the Mayors suggestion, and there is no
doubt that. His Honor, as well assssome of the
aldermen intend to improve our city, and also
intend to spend the peoples money in the most
economical and practicable way, but, as long
as there are aldermen in the council who have
sufficient influence to induce the city council
to allow, for instance, the setting of fire
hydrants where there are no houses, and have
water mains located where there are no water
consumers; as long as such so called improve
ments are sanctioned by city council, SO lonr
will there be very little hope of carrying an
election to authorize the city council to issue
bonds over $4,000 year. IL anybody goes
outside the city mot the city limits) and sees
fire hydrants standing there like images from
one month to another, from one year to an
other, without ever being used and no hone for
being used for the next 20 years-because there
are no houses and sees on the other side
where the taxpayers property is not protected
by fire hydrants at ALL he can easily imagine
that the peoples money has not been practica-
bly, spent.
How. then, can the city council expect that
the taxpayers shall again allow their money
TO be spent in a similar way us above named2

HAND ORGAN TUNES.
Devices of Organists to Arouse the Sympa

Hand organ manufacturers i'm the East are
sending numerous circulars to their wander
ing patrons. Hand Organ Tunes for 1882
appears in big black letters on one circular a.
LIGHT arrester saw yesterday. Then follows
a statement that "the undersigned" was pre-.
pared to adjust organs to accord with the pop
ular notions about music. There is no doubt"
says the manufacturer, that more attention
is now given to music than ever before and
that the popular ear is greatly improved. Last
year the public were satisfied with such tunes
as Maria Come over and Sit by my Kitchen Fire
Baby Mine, Yankee Doodle, Grandfather's
Clock, and the Pants Used to Wear but now
the demand is for selections from Olvette
Mascot and other favorite operas
Are you going to buy new organ?" asked
the LIGHT man of the organ grinder who had
shown the circular

streIs at Turner Hall Last Night.
Notwithstanding the inclemency of the
weather last night Turner hall was crowded
The entertainment was all that was anticipated
and more too. From the beginning of the per-
Torrance till the end the audience was kept
roaring with laughter. But as the true humor-
ISL Is always sentimentalist the entertain
ment did not wholly consist of comedy, Inter
spersed with 1t was vein of sentimentality
quite as pleasing as the cOmiCalties. Mr.. G.
campbell deserves especial mention for the
admirable manner in which he sang "Wait Till
the Clouds Roll by" also Milt Barlow for his
representations of an aged negro, Talbert
wayne Iierney and Owens for their aero
battle and saltateral acts, the boy
Haney and Barney Fagin for
their clog dancing, SchOolcraft for his faithful
portraitures of a plantation negro, George
Wilson and happy Cal Wagner for their origi-
nal comicalists, the Clipper quartette for their
singing, and Ed Fox for his violin solos.
George Gale, one of the singers in Messrs Bar
low Wilson's company, has pure soprano
voice the possession of which any woman
might be proud of. He received many encO-
res for his singing last night being recalled
four times with George Goes for one song
alone, the gobble song in Mascot. In the COM
pany are the five best MINISTRIES in the com
pany, Happy Cal Wagner, Wilson, Barlow,
Schoolcraft and Goes. As the whole entertain

A HEARTLESS MOTHER.
A Negro Woman Abandons Her Child Be-
cause She Thinks it Has SMALLPOX

Negro Woman Abandons Her Child Re-
cause She Thinks it Has SMALLPOX.
A case ofsupposed small pox was reported to
City Physician Menger yesterday. On making
inquiry, DIR. Menger learned that a colored
woman named Franks, who lives on Alamo
street, near the Mission store, had become
frightened by the appearance of one of her
children, a girl aged nine years, and had de-
serted it, taking two other children with her.
Soon afterwards, accompanied by Officer
Gleason, he proceeded to the house and found
the front door locked. They entered at the
back, which was open. The kitchen was pitch
dark. After shouting several times they heard
tine cry of child. Procuring lantern they
made search and were rewarded by finding
the child lying ill in an apartment which was
flled with smoke from a fire in the chimney
1t is the offspring of the colored man Frank,
who was removed to the pest house and died
there.
The house has been isolated, thoroughly
fumigated and the clothing disinfected. The
woman and her children were yaccinated. but
as 1t was found at the end of three days that il
did not take, they were revaccinated. When
DIR. Menger examined the child the vaccination
showed healthy scab, and the face and chest
was covered with vaccine postules. AS far as
DR.. Menger can tell, the eruption was simply
the effect of vaccination, and not a case of
varioa or smallpox. The child is receiving due
attention, and the police are searching for its
mother.
