 Los Angeles, Nov. 13.-Between 12 and 1 o'clock last night a frame house in East Los Angeles, occupied by Rudolph Weinhold, nurseryman, was burned down. In searching through the ruins the charred re- mains of Edward R. Chappellow, his partner, were found. Further search this morning disclosed the body Of Weinhold burned beyond recognition. An inquest was held thls morning, and the jury brought in a verdict that the men were murdered and the house burned'to conceal the crime.

The Mutual Life A ssocIation

j. X. Sutterly, the agent for this State of
the Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association
of New York, has recently received a circu-
lar letter from E. B. Harper, the President
Of the association, in which he says that dur
ing the month of November they had ac-
cepted 73l applications for insurance, cover
ing S3,S75, 900, making total business
within ninety days of S9.S04 800, which is
greater than that Of any other company in
the world in the same period of time.
The assessments have been small and all
losses paid promptly in full. The letter
states that the affairs of the association
have been carefully examined by insurance
commissioners, actuaries and others, and in
every instance complete Endorsement has
been received by the association. The ac-
counts have all been audited by Mr. 0. d.
Baldwin, the President of one of the largest
banks in America, and pronounced correct.
The old Actuary Of the Mutual Life Asso.
citation of New York, Mr.. Sheppard Hor-
man, made careful examination into the
system pursued by this association, and In
his report says "that the plans are scieB.
titically correct and solves a problem in life
insurance which he had strived to attain for
the past twenty years"
Persons wishing further information re-
specting this new and cheap method of pro.
vlding for their families will do well to call

Yesterdays Proceedings In the senate

WASHINGTON, Jan. lin the United

to amend the act of last session In relation
to bigamy, and said he would ask It's early

MIA introduced a bill establishing the

AT the close of the morning hour the Fitz-

The amendment reported from the commit
tee on Military Affairs, providing that Porter

lowanee prior to his reinstatement In the
army, was agreed to- Mr.. Conger moved
to indefinitely postpone the bill. The mo-
tton was lost-yeas 81, nays 3l-and the bill
was passed by vote of SO to 81. Mr., In

wIILmINoToN. FRIDAY JAN. -.
As TO Commissioners.

We assure our respected contemporary,
the Epory EVsning, that the GAZETTE meant
Just what it said, on Wednesday, in relation
TO the probable result Of q Police Commis-
slon-the appointment Of non-partisan
force, composed of men selected more for
their fitness for the responsible position than
for mere party services.
That such force would be benefit to
the city, and vast improvement over the
present incompetent officials, no sensible
man can for an instant doubt. Their tenure
of Office would never be dependent upon the
result Of a municipal contest, and even
change in State election involving change
in the political complexion of the commits
sion would still leave the force with
minority representation. This minority
representation would tend at all
times to prevent the police force from
being used as political adjunct to either
party during exciting campaigns, and
would serve to assure all citizens Of a full
and ample police protection on election
days.
We did not, of course, expect the
Morning Neps to look with favor upon any
plan for the establishment of commissions
in this city, and are not disappointed at its
opposition. 1t has failed, however, to show
any reason why the experiment so satisfac-
torily tried in 1877, should not be repeated
in 1888, or to give any assurance that
City Council could be safely entrusted with
the grave and important work of improv-
iRg and enlarging the Water Department of
our city. The present City Council is as
good as the average, but as the people have
a pauful and vivid recollection of how this
important work Jared at the hands of preVi-
GUS Councils, and pleasant remembrance
OF its sensible and successful completion by
a competent commission, we are constrained
TO the belief that there will be very little
public opposition to another trial of such a
satisfactory method.
Commissions, as we before stated, are not
generally popular with the people, but they
have their good points. and as long as they
accomplish good results are not to be de
spised as features of municipal government
The only experience Of the people of Viii
mington in this direction was profitable and
satisfactory, and until contrary result il
met with there should be no objection t
their employment, particularly when th'
existing methods of government SO com
pletely fail TO size up to the public de
mands

No DOUBT THE readers of the GAZETTE
are still puzzling their brains over the third
line in our fourth edition head Of yesterday,
which declared "Sarah not fully begun"
We confess we were startled ourselves at the
bold assertion, when the paper appeared,
fully begun" There Is no excuse to offer
unless it be that the young man who sets
the head lines had been sleighing on We'd
nesdsy night and was regretting that the
hour to return had arrived 80 soon and that,
too, at time when "Sarah had not fully
begun to get over her coyness sufficiently to
nestle closer"
