AN ANCIENT CURIOSITY.
History OF the Mosaic Lion Now at the
New National Museum,


New National Museum.
Visitors to the centennial exhibition will
remember the great mosaic lion which stood
in the Tunis court and was so much admired.
They will doubtless be glad to learn that the
image has been presented to the national
museum by Sir Richard Wood, at that time
British consul general at Tunis,
The mosaic lion has quite n history. The
law Of TuniS prohibi S the removal or sale of
any of the national statuary without first OBJ
tanning the consent of the government. Tho
Arabs, who formerly derived much profit
from the sale of such articles, did SO in Sc
cret manner, One night during Sir Richard
Woods residence there an Arab chief came to
him and said that for q certain compensa-
tion he would bring him something
Of great value. The consul general
agreed to the chiefs proposition, and the lat
finest m0oaics in Africa. On the next night
of men who bore upon their shoulders the
mosaic lion which can now be seen ut the ma
tOnal museum. Tho image is seven feet
square and on the different sides arc repre-
scented wild beasts of several varieties. This
imnge was stolen from the temple Of Astarte,
erected in Carthage in the fist cen
tury by the Romans But small
portion Of this temple now remains. The
image was taken from tho floor of the temple
by the Arabs, who, in their greedy haste, dis
figured II In such manner that ii was ncces-
sary to have certain portions remado by the
artisans NJ the museum. Tho mosaic lion is
probably the most ancient mosaic in this
IJuutrN.

Interesting Temperance ExcrCiscs in n
Building which Has History.
reporter Of THE REPUBLICAN visited
Bun Bryans old building on Eighth, street
southeast, near the navy yard gate, last night,
and viewed the assembling of about fifty
children, members of East Washington Band
of Hope, a juvenile temperance society. The
old structure has a history. II was erected
many years ago, and occupied for long
time as a family residence. The in.
crease Of the habit of imbibing in strong
drink among United States sailors, however,
their grog ration having been stopped by
law, and the frequent arrival of shins nt the
Washington yard, demanded an increase in
the number of "ErOg shops" as they were
then termed in the vicinity of the navy yard
cato. Accordingly, nearly thirty years ago
Bun Bryan leased tho old structure and
opened q drinking resort, principally for
sailors. Many liquor toned song and ribald
jest have echoed through its rooms, and
many n jolly jack tar has recled shipward
after taking on board cargo of rum
under the old roof Of tho hostelry. How
changed the scene now moditatei the
reporter as he listened to tho ladies Of the
Woman's Christian Temperance union sing.

An Important Business Change.

On Monday next, Tomorrow. an i'm
rortant change will take place ip ono Of
our financial institutions. Mr.. ]. 8.
Slsuson, so long and iavorably known as
the President Of the Los Angeles County
Bank, retires, and will be succeeded by
MIR. John f. Platter, Of the firm of
Paxton 4 Co., bankers at various points
in the State Of Nevada. With the lat
ter gentleman we arc not personally &C.
quainted, although the long established
firm Of which he Is a member gives at
once the assurance of thorough kno vi.
edge OF the business of banking; and
should he succeed in identifying him
self with the business interests of this
community to the same extent as our
worthy townsman. Mr.. Slauson, we see
no very great reason for oajecting to
the change. particularly as Mr.. Slauson
still continues an important shareholder
and director OF the bank, from the &C.
tive management Of which the diversity
Of his interests render ii necessary fol
him to be relieved, demanding, as they
do, his constant attention. We would
say further, that apart from the large
interest which Paxton & Co. have pur
chased in the bank. they are further
identified with ourselves, by being the
lessees of the Laguna Ranch property
for the term of eight years. and are now
actively engaged in working this prop
erty. To such active business men WI
are always ready to extend welcome
hand.

Magnetism the New Source of
Health.

DR.. Edwin Robbins, tho celebrated
Australian Electric and Magnetic Hea-
Ter, respectfully informs the public that
he has opened an office in the city Of
Los Angeles. DIR. Robbins discards the
use of surgery, drugs, minerals and all
other medicines in his treatment and re.
lies solely on tho powers Of magnetism.
An experience Of several years in the
Australian colonies, San Francisco, Salt
Lake City and Denver, in which places
he has treated successfully thousands of
persons, enables him to assert with con-
fidenco that he can cure diseases which
have defied the application of medical
science. Magnetism is the life principle
within us. The air we breathe is
charged with IL. 1t Is the vital force
emanating from all persons and that
which connects the soul with the body.
In support Of this theory he cures acute
pains instantly, local pains in few
days, and builds up the most shattered
in short time. DR.. Rob-
bins, who has worldwide reputation
for his extraordinary cures OF all diff.
cult and complicated diseases, possesses
q power to relieve and cure all kinds of
diseases. DR.. Robbins diagnoses dis
eases FREQ of charge without explanation

Dear little golden head, sleep meath the daisies
Shell-tnted cheeks, blue eyes sunny with love,
Thou vert blossom, sweet, lii by the glory
OF blue skies and sunlight that fall from above.
Angelic promise Of love that's immortal,
Pure from thy home In the heavens above,
Sent in thy beauty to hearts that enshrined thee
How hast thou faded. y. sweet flower Of love:
Mother regret not that on thy young bosom
Only a brief time the fair head hath lain:
Look through thy tears to the home Of the angels
Jesus shall give thee thy darling again.
Safe from the sorrows too often pursuing
And crushing the heart on life's hard. finty road
Those little feet have been tenderiy guided
Into the fold Of dear, loving Lord.
She was woman and fair In her promise;
Thou can'st not tell how her heart might have
bled;
In his compassion the Saviour hath gathered
Home to His bosom the dear, golden head.
Comfort Thea, mother, that to thy fond keeping
Treasure so precious moment was given;
Comfort thee, knowing, the Saviour hath said it,
"of such as these is the Kingdom Of Heaven"

Last night Andrews & Stockwcll's
Ideal Pantomime and Star Specially
Company finished their engagement in
this city with the fourth representation
Of Humpty Dumpty's Picnic. The house
was again crowded, but not so much so as
at the matinee, at which was the largest
audience which has been seen in Turn
verein Hall for long time. Both per-
formances were excellent, and the com.
pany leaves the city after most pleas
ing and successful engagement. They
depart this morning for the East, with
New Orleans as an objective point.
News reached towa yesterday of the
burglary, on small scale, of Chapin's
store at Santa Monica. 1t seems that
the store was entered on Thursday night
and about twenty dollars worth of
cigars and small articles in the way OF
knick- -knacks taken out. The burglars
have not been arrested yet, but as sus-
picion has fallen upon two individuals
who have made themselves conspicuous
by their absence during the Inst two
days, IL Is probable the history of the
whole affair will be developed in their
arrest.
Deputy Tailor JEFF Thompson was
awakened yesterday morning about Q |
o'clock by wars stern alarmus in the |
sounds Of uctive fighting in the jail
room. He got up to see what was go.
ing on, and found that two recent mr.
rivals within the unhallowed precincts
had disagreed on the subject of per-
petual motion, or the origin OF man, or
some equally. profound question, and
each were trying physical pursuasion to
bring the other to his views. A few
judicious threats about the "cooler"
tanned their angry passions. and the rest
Of the night was quietly passed.
Mr.. Howland, during the course Of
his remarks before the City Council last
night, on the sabiect Of city lighting,
to the city to put up ak addi-
tional masts in order to better light the
streets. Mr.. Rowland generously
Inferred .s siTe the light from two Of
these free of charge. These, he sug
gested, should be placed, one at the
new depot, one on Aliso street, near
Center street, one on New High street,
one on the corner Of Third and Spring
streets, one on Main street, between
Tenth and Eleventh streets, and one on
the corner Of Pearl and Tenth streets.
Should the Council adopt this offer Los
Angeles will be eae Of the best lighted
cities in the Union. The light then will
aggregate power Of 10000 candles,
as against 63,000 candle power of the
present lights.
