THE ILLINOIS CENTRAL'S REPORT.

The advance sheets Of the Illinois Cen
trails report have been issued. These show
that, after the pay ment OF sG32 ,429 for per-
manent Improvements, and half yearly
dividend in September last, sufficient of the
profits had been set side for the PAYMENT
OF an ordinary dividend Of 4 per cent, and
an extra dividend Of per cent. on March
|, and there would remain balance from
the gross earnings Of sl5G,909. Since Jan.
uary l, 1883, the company his operated
the Chicago, St. Louis and New Orleans

the net earnings, s3,G6O,769, against 49,.
227, lSl, an increase of s433,5S7. Itwould
seem from this that the operatin. expenses

increase of gross and net earnings, and ca :
pecialy of the latter, were not maintained.

Net receipts from traffic, $5,2G4,157; net
receipts from land, sl47,43O; net receipts

More Trouble from Glass Lamps.

The house and contents of Mr.. john
L. Baisley were entirely consumed yes.
terday morning, on Mozart street, in
East Los Angeles. by the explosion of
a glass lamp, which set fire TO the win
dow curtain. ceiling and floor, and filled
the room with flame in an instant Of
time. The calamity occurred about one
o'clock in the morning, while the family
were all in bed and asleep. Their escape
was necessarily sudden and not unmixed
with danger.
The explosion, flame and smoke awoke
Mr.. end Mrs. Baisley. who saw the
trouble in an instant. Mr.. Baisley
dashed through the flames into an ad.
Joining room where his two children
were sleeping. broke out window and
threw the children outside and followed
by the same way himself. Mrs. Baisley
escaped out of the front of the house,
from which few articles Of furniture
and clothing were saved.
The house was so far from telephone
or the hose cart station, or water supply
that it was all in flames before anything
could be done to check the fire, or be-
fore the matter was known to the neigh
bors. The destruction was complete.
There was policy of insurance on the
building but it was not sufficient to
cover the loss by about $500. This is
the fourth accident from the use OF
glass lamps mentioned in the HERALD
within month. 1t is time to call halt
and make lamps of brass.

tour he procured a Mexican barber
named 0bando to accompany him pre-.
sumably for the purpose OF influencing

eloguenee.
1t would be charitable, Mr.. Editor, to

him on the recommendation Of his man.
ayers.
Scarcely. however. had Mr.. Markham
started out, when II was made public
that 0b1ndo was not an American
citizen, talthough he has lived in the
State fourteen years.. Notwithstanding
that Mark ham and his friends have
been 10 my certain knowledge, aware for
more than a month that Obando Is not a
citizen, they have still kept him ON the
stump.
The Republican managers are hard up
for speakers when they have to hire an
alien barber to accompany their Con-
gressional nominee and teach the voters
Of the Sixth Congressional District their
political duties.
Markhams persistence in dragging
his alien orator through the towns and
hamleis of this district Is an insult to
our voting population, which he will
dearly rue after the 4th OF November,
