shooting man named Pollard at Downey
City for making love to his wife, was

Reynolds, who is conducting his own
prosecution most honorably.
The San Luis obispo Mirror speaks
Of Hon. P. B. Tully as member Of Con-
gress from this district. He truly is
some distance from this district, as there
is no member of Congress in this dis
trict. By the new apportionment bill
Southern California is without any rep
resentative in the Lower House. This
district is left out in the cold.

toire OF plays are among the most popu-
lar now on the stage, and will be pre-
sented here with suitable scenery and
entirely new costumes. The simple
announcement that these artists will
play in Los Angeles is sufficient to
assure crowded houses.

The HERALD acknowledges pleasant
CALL last evening, from Mr.. +. Kings
bury, manager Of the telegraph office at
Tombstone, Arizona, who is en- route
north ON two months vacation. Mr..
Kingsbury, who was connected with the
telegraph Office in this city six years
ago, is greatly astonished at the changes
and improvements and says that he is
scarcely able to recognize any of the
features of Los Angeles as he knew it,
except Chinatown, which is as dirty and
disgusting as ever.
A lively ''norther" swept down from
the mountains during all of yesterday.
In the city the seabreeze during the
middle and afterpart of the day DETECTED
the great nortberly current. first to the
northwest and after that to the west,
but the character of the wind was uu-
mistakabe and on the mountains the
northern current was decided and
strong. 1t is too late for these drying
winds 10 do any harm to vegetation.
From the appearance of the clouds that
peered their heads over the mountains,
there must have been a storm on the
desert OF considerable magnitude.
by request our ten-cent counter will
be continued to-day, Peoples Store.
