The German Entertainment.

The German concert and theatre at
Turn Nerein Hall on Sunday evening,
was very enjoyable, musically, and, we
are glad to learn, was profitable. The
excellent orchestra played selections
from Tampa, The Bohemian Girl, and a
potpourri from various operas in care

candidate for Los Angeles favor, acquit-
ted herself excellently in her vocalism,
and was encored Prof. Engels played
a fantastic on the piano from Les Hugue-
nots in his mastery style, and ofhciated
as director OF the Liederbranz Society

leader is well known. This society

Their last selection was
from production by Witt, and was also
encored, the Champagne Song by

hot weather has done no material dam
age to the grapes, though it mas operated
rather in favor OF the wine and brandy

A Needless 8 ccident.

A serious accident happened on Sun
day night to Mr.. and Mrs. james Fen
nessey aud Mr.. Hallahan on their
return from Santa Monica. As they
drove into the city just after dark, when
passing the corner of Flower and Sixth
streets, their carriage ran ON bank of
earth that had been thrown up from a
deep trench excavated for laying the
pipe for the wooden mill zanja, and was
upset most unceremoniously. Mr.. and
Mrs Fennessey were badly bruised.
Mr. Hallahan, who was driving, held
braveiy to the horse and prevented a
runaway. Although seriously injured,
Mr. Ii. was master of the situation, and
prevented general smashup. there
was no light hung up or placed on the
pile of earth, and nothing to mark a
trench about nine feet deep, into which
they came within a few inches Of being
thrown. Who is to blame for leaving
such dangers in the public streets?

THE great need in Los Angeles to-day
is an addition TO her hotel accommoda-
tions. The ontcry against their insufli-
cheney has been loud and continuous in
the past The large increase which has
been made in the facilities of the Sierra
Madre Villa supplies this need to some
extent. The Nadeau building ought to
pass into capable hands and supply the
void. We are rapidly advancing upon
that season Of the year when the hotels
are crowded to repletion, and still the
desired tenant for the Nadeau block has
not put in an appearance. This would
seem to be n capital opening for the man
who knows how to keep hotel.

A DISASTROUS FIRE.
Three Canyons on Fire-Three Hun
dred Stands of Bees Burned :
Great Destruction of Property.

On Saturday last fire broke out in
the Higgins canon, between Monte Vista
and Santa Monica, and swept into Frank
lin canon, where II seemed to gather
new strength and leaped over into Cold
water cafon, where 1t swept everything
before it and only stopped when it
reached thecrest Of the mountains above
the canon ranch of Mr.. Il. w. Doss. So
rapid was the spread Of the fire that it
was impossible to save the property that
lay in its path. One of the heaviest suf.
ferers was Mr.. N. Levering, who lost ll6
stands Of bees, honey-house, barn and
hay, and movable property His loss
amounts to 81 500. MIR. Chas. Tullis was
burned out root and branch, losing thir-
ty tons of hay and corral
besides other property in tools
and implements. Fortunately lie had
removed his bees to another canon be-
fore the fire. Mr.. Romer, new
conner in the district, lost slxty-fve
stands Of bees. Expecting his house to
be destroyed, he removed his household
goods out doors. when change of the
wine swept the fire away from the house
and into the household effects, burning
everything up. Mr.. Romer amounted q
horse and dashed through the fire, CIV
ing his hat to the flames, and being bad
ly scorched in the face. His horse was
also badly burned. A pig that was
picketcd out, was set loose to flee for its
life and rushed into the flames to be-
come a roasted pig in short meter. Mr..
Romer saved about 5000 pounds of
honey, but lost his honey house and all
his bees Mrs. Tullis fed over the
mountains into the San Fernando valley
to escape from the fire which shut her
off from coming out of the canon. The
fire was terribly fierce, burning not only
the leaves and brush, but large trees,
and the vegetable mold in the soil. This
is one of the most destructive mountain
fires for decade, and should admonish
all who live in the mouutains to keep a
cleared space around their buildings and
corrals.

A terrible fire broke out in the brush
yesterday near the Santa Anita canon,
in the Sierra Madres. The sea breeze
famed the flames and sent them up the
mountain side in vigorous manner, but
when the smoke reached the summit the
upper carrent from the north brought it
back in the upper air directly in the
opposite direction to the sea breeze, and
filed the whole heavens with yellow
gloom.
In City Justice Morgan's Court, yes
terday, John Moore, drunk, got seven
days labor on the public streets; Jesus
Gonzales, drunk and disorderly, got
twenty-five days, and C. Mendibles, for
the same offence, fifteen days; one
Baraias, also drunk and disorderly, fail
ing to appear, $40 which he had depos-
tied, was FORFEITED to the city. B6be
Clark, for disturbing the peace, paid
$40.
On Saturday last man giving the
name OF C. Benson engaged a double
team with n spring wagon from George
R. Butler, to drive to Santa Monica aud
return, but failed to return. 1t seems
that he drove to Santa Monica and then
drove back through the Cahuenga Pass
into the San Fernando. On arriving at
the Encino Ranch at furious rate, one
of the horses gave out, and the driver,
finding the team was known there, left
it and took to the brush. Mr.. Butler
wants to see him.
About O'Clock last night verdant
granger, fatigued doubtless by the heat
of the day, or something more ardent,
laid down in the Plaza park to take
nap, using his coat for a pillow. While
he was asleep some one stole the coat,
in the pocket of which there were $40
in cash and some valuable papers. The
loser says the thief is welcome to the
money, but he would like TO have the
papers.

SOMEBODY has advanced the startling
story that it was not the Gar, but a man
made up to look like him, who figured
in the coronation ceremonies at Moscow.
The discovery is said to have been faith
cred in the British Embassy. This would
be a novel and historical variation on the
Negro Minstrel extravaganza of "The
Man that Looks Like Me-" The story
was probably concocted out of whole
cloth. 1t will be remembered that the
Czarina figured with her husband at
every stage OF the demonstration, and it
would have been necessary to have had
somebody to personate her also, as II is
simply incredible that Alexander III.
could be poltroon enough to abandon
his wife to dangers which he was afraid
to face himself The drawer of the
long-bow in Russia is equal to any Ana.
