Rough on widows.

A revolution in legal decisions has just
been started by decision in the Supe-
rior Court of San Francisco in the case Of
the estate of Fritz Hoffmaster, whose
life was insured in the Workman's Guar
antee Fund Association. The deceased
was insured by defendant for $1,000,
payable to his widow upon his death.
which amount the Association was
anxious to pay her. The creditors of
the deceased claimed the money and
the question whether the claimant was
entitled to receive the same was the
issue involved. The Court rendered judg-
ment in favor Of the plaintiff, and there
fore the amount becomes assets of the
estate to be disbursed by the creditors.
This decision upsets previous rulings.
which held that insurance on mans
life in favor of his wife could not at his
death be attached or claimed by his
creditors.

The Cattle of Los Angeles county.

The Cattle of Los Angeles County.
A few days since the HERALD an.
nounced that Messrs. A. J. Hutchinson
and E. J. Baldwin were placing two car
loads Of imported Devon cattle on the
Cienega Rancho and stated that Los
Angeles would soon be as noted for the
best cattle as it now is for the best
horses. As an illustration Of this propo-
sition we have the pleasure Of stating
that Gen. E. F. Beale, proprietor Of the
Tejon Rancho, has sent to the ranches
of E. J. Baldwin, in the San Gabriel
valley, for 100 head Of young Devon
bulls to place on his great rancho. The
superintendent, Mr.. R. NJ. Pogson. re-
Gently arrived in this city and selected
from Mr.. Baldwin's stock 100 Of these
fine young animals and sent them by
rail to Bakersfield. 1t appears that the
intelligent stock men of Kern county
appreciate the value Of good cattle and
especially of the Devon breed, in which
Los Angeles county takes the lead.
Concerning this fine band of cattle the
Californian of Bakersfield says;
s'They arrived in good condition, and
were placed ON an alfalfa pasture in this
vicinity where they now are. Mr.. Pog-
son says the cattle on the TETON ranch
have been improved with the heavy
short-horned breeds, but he has found
that they are not well adapted to noun
tain ranges, not being sufficiently active,
and having the further objection that
! they are slow to arrive at maturity. He
saw the superiority Of the Devons well
| illustrated on Baldwin's ranch. 1t is
over-stocked, and the pasturage scanty,
but they were in fine condition and fat.
while the heavy breeds looked badly.
The Devon breed is peculiarly adapted
to hill and mountain ranges where the
grass is scanty, having originated in .
part of England that comprises the
roughest and highest portion of the
kingdom. Wherever this breed has beer
introduced on this continent it has beer
found superior for rough ranges, ani
this importation will greatly benefit tht
cattle interest Of this county, as our hill
and mountain ranges will always furnish
large share Of The pasturage."

past SIX months indicate marked increase
In the number and extent of the liabilities
as compared with the corresponding peri
DDS OF the two previous years: For the first
six months in 1881 the failures were 1882;
the first six months in 1882, 3,597; the first
six months of 1888, 4,637. The liabilities
show greater increase. In 1881 the liabili-
ties for the first six months were SIC, 0,000,-
600, In 1882 80 900 900 and for the first six
months Of 1888, S66, 900 900. The increase
in liabilities for the last half year is at
tributed largely to the speculative failures
in the West, but even deducting the in
debtedness springing from this cause the
increase in failures and liabilities is very
marked.
The agitation over the trade dollar
in New York City has been rapidly spread

"Do not be deceived, demand good money
for your labor and goods. Trade dollars
will not be received after July 1, 1888. The
Government will not receive them for dues,
but Will only buy them at the price of
silver, valued at about eighty-five cents"
large number of dealers have signed an
agreement not to take the trade dollar ex-
cept at the current discount.

The Scott Liquor Law.

The decision of the Supreme Court by
majority Of four to one that the Scott Liq-
uor Law is constitutional has so effectually
settled the question that we are likely to
hear very little from it hereafter. 1t viii
add to the revenues Of the State about g.
600, 900, aud by that much relieve the bur
dens of taxation on other kinds of property
and other forms Of business. We have no
sympathy with that sentimentalism which
calls taxes, derived from this source, "blood
money! and objects to applying it to the
payment of expenses the traffic entails.
We would prefer entire prohibition of the
sale of liquors as beverage, but until that
can be secured, we are quite willing to tax
any possible extent and apply the proceeds
to relieving the burdens it infiicts on so
ciety. We dare nottrust ourselves to speak
of the proposition TO refuse, on moral
grounds, all taxes from this source, leaving
it in the hands Of saloonists, while the peo-
pie put an additional tax upon themselves
Of S2,00O,000 to raise good, pure money to
nav for the expenses and crime they have
produced. OF course we do not put this
method in companion with or in place of
prohibition, if the people are disposed to
have it, but until they are wise and good
enough to enact such law, it is just $2,-
600 900 better than nothing. The common
sense and practical portion Of the people
will not fail to see it in this light. and as
far as it goes, it will be considered good.
If the Democracy expect 10 get any advan-
tage out OF the passage of this law they win
find themselves mistaken, and the greater
the opposition they make to it, the sooner
they will drive the moderate temperance
men to a position in which they viii de

Promptness i'm meals.

Everyone with either experimental or
theoretical information knows that system
and regularity OF interval in feeding ami
mails is necessary to their well-being. The
human is an animal in demands for good
treatment of the stomach. Who has not
at some time experienced the pangs of in
cipient starvation in the delay Of slowly
preparing banquet, which is deferred till
the gentlest soul feels like savage, and a
crust of bread at once would be of more
value than the most elaborate variety so
long waited for! Public dinners and COM
pany dinners of this kind are bad enough,
but at home uncertainty or a uniform slack
ness about the time when the meals will
be ready, is enough to demoralize the most
good-natured people. Promptness in COM
ing to the table when the hour is under.
stood is also necessary, and simple justice
to the one who cooks, as well as the one
who presides.
A suitable, and not too long, interval be-
tween meals is necessary to their enjoy
ment, and these should be uniform from
day to day. One can better bear an hour
more of abstinence between dinner and
supper than between breakfast and din
ner, perhaps tor the reason that the morn
ing meal is the lighter and the system less
fortified to meet the demands upon 1t.
Delicate people, children, the aged, inval-
ids and certainly those who work hard,
either at manual or mental labor, are more
dependent upon regularity in their eating
than many suppose, and ii is positive cru
city and does harm to the health of such to
have to wait for meals until the stomach,
from long abstinence, is in no condition to
digest well what is eaten.
If the breakfast is at halfpast six or sew.
en-, the dinner should not be later than
twelve, and the supper certainly not more
than six hours after. 1t had better be
earlier than later. 1t is matter of habit
and not Of circumstances, and the prompt
habit is in every sense more convenient
and comfortable than the opposite.

Late Hours.

A few nights ago, when the moon made
midnight almost as light as day, on pub
lie corner three young men separated from
as many young women. leaving the latter
to find their own way home OF course
these were not respectable men and women
but the girls were somebody's daughters,
and their parents have a right to know, if
they live at home, where and with whom
they spend such late hours If "a daughter is
so headstrong that she thinks she is under
no obligation to give an account of herself,
her company and her hours, there is good
cause for gentle dealing, but plain under
standing. If the young women were girls
at service and away from home, the mis-
tress should know at what time she comes
in and what has kept her to such an hour.
If either at home or in some other persons
home it is not considered important to in
quire, great injustice is done to the young
woman and she bears only part of the re-
sponsibility. Some one is 10 blame, and
the girl to the extent of SHINING against
whatever of better teaching she may have
had. The young man who has begun a
life of vice is not going to escape the pen
atty, however though he seeks TO shield him.
self by sneaking home under the shadows,
afraid TO risk discovery If he goes openly
to see her safe holAe who has been in his
disreputable company.
Whichever has enticed The other to steps
that ''take hold on hell,' is piling up sor-
row upon sorrow and cannot escape a day
of reckoning. The young woman who is
mot afraid" to go about alone at night con-
fesses to that of which she ought to be
ashamed. II would be better TO be little
afraid than to find all her happiness and
recreation in night visiting and the prom
enade upon the street. The young man
who has always so many night engage
ments on hand that he has to let himself
in by a night key is in dangerous road.
That two or three or four hours after his
days work is dong, tells more upon his
health, his morlas and his purse than all
the other twenty-four hours And when
he gets to that point where it makes no
difference in his standing in the house at
what hour he comes in, he is far along to-
ward ruin. Said woman who had seen
what sorrow and disgrace had come of it:
sIf our boys had never been allowed a
nightkey and so got to thinking that it
made no difference when they came in, we
might have been saved that which we can
not remedy, but which is bearing us brok-
en-hearted to premature graves"

Church Behavior.

1t is the common remark of persons sit.
ting in the back seats at church that the
amount of playing and of silly and irrever-
ent behavior among young people, old
enough to know better, is disgrace to
them and to the town. People who are not
accustomed to back seats, but who, for
some reason, chance to have sitting in
the neighborhood of these jewellers, say
that it is useless to try to hear a sermon or
get any connection or sense of what is be-
ing spoken in the pulpit when among
them. So far as those young peo-
pie are concerned who are living
at home and are under the supposed guar
dianship of parents, they should sit with
them and then they win know what they
are doing.
When the children are too large to do
that they are also too large to expect faith
Grand mother to support them and give
them home. Throwing gpaper-wads, pass
ing notes, making litter on the carpet by
picking flowers to pieces and tossing them
about, giggiing, simpering and exchanging
looks of intelligence with others as lacking
in selfrespect as themselves, all these are
unworthy modest and wellbred girl or
sensible and manly boy. Children who
go out, even to church, especially in the
evening, without proper guardianship, are
as rule not improved in mind, manners
or morals by the going. Wepresume that
these young people would not like to be
mentioned by name,- because it would
hardly be called "Roll of Honor" nor
would they enjoy being spoken to from the
pulpit, as is sometimes done, or yet be
sought out by Constable and be compell-
ed to appear before magistrate with a
fine to pay for disturbing the congregation.

told of, yet il has been under serious con-
sideration

very compassed their downfall. In this
connection il might be well for the more
progressive Temperance advocates, who
think the Republicans are going too slow
and temporizing with the evil ltoremember
that they are in the main moving in the
right direction; that time is necessary to
bring even all good men TO see eye to eye;
that reforms never go backward, and that

and bring the mass of men to adopt and
work for every true reform until success
full issue is reached.
