A Plague spot.

The sign on the ponds of malarial
water on Buena Vista street, that
"hunting and fishing is strictly prohib-
tied, Is needless. No man who has in
telligence enough to live would be seen
hunting or fishing in those waters, which
are rotten and pestilential. These fes-
tsring ponds have been there for the last
thirty days, and no effort has been made
to abate them. They are on the line of
the Hellmsn Street Railway, and all
who 60 and come to and from the new
depot pass by these gardens of death,
whose sign should be o coffin. Does the
Board Of Health know of these things,
Does the Health Officer report them to
the proper authorities? The people are
aroused about the matter. and expect
the HERALD to expose this dangerous
element and cause its removal. Los An
gsles must keep up its reputation a. the
fairest city in the Union by strict adher-
ence to the laws Of health. If this stag
nant water is not promptly removed,
the persons in authority will be guilty Of
homicide.
The reputation Of the city Is at stake
in this matter. The people who reside
ON that street are entitled TO ''life, liber'
ty and the pursuit Of happiness, accord
ing to the immortal declaration ol
Thomas Jefferson. There must be nc
plague spots on the fair face Of our beau
tiful city, which should be model oI
all excellence.

That Unknown Dead Man.

Concerning the body of the man found
on the top of the Santa Ynez noun
tains, an account of which appeared in
the HERALD, the Santa Barbara Press
says:
DIR. Bates testified before the Coro-
ner's inquest on the body of . man
found in the mountains, seven or eight
miles from the city, to-day. He says
the evidences Of foul play are indisputa-
BILE; that the remains are those Of O
man between 20 and 30 years of age, be.
tween five feet three inches and FIVE feet
six inches in height. He found bullet
hole in the skull on the right side;
the opposite side Of the skull
was extensively shattered, evi-
IDENTIFY from n bullet pass.
ing out. From that injury it seems
probable that death was CAUSED by q
gln5hot-wound, in addition to heavy
blow on the back of the head with some
blunt instrument. The jury returned a
verdict tina. the remains were those of
an unknown man, who came to his death
from violence by some person or persons
unknown. The remnants OF the cloth
ing of the man are of very fine goods.
and it is supposed that he had been
enticed to the mountains and murdered.
The only possible clue to the identity of
the remains is the one shoe in good
state of preservation.
LATER-The murdered man is thought
to be one Jose Scavszola, who was some
three years since, with several others
under charge of cattle stealing and
was under $1,000 bail for his appearance.
He suddenly disappeared, and was
known to have several thousand dollars
with him. Nothing has been heard of
him since. although dilligent search and
inquiry was made.

This gentleman. who has practiced
dentistry in this city for many years,
started yesterday, with the regrets Of
the whole town, for California, where he
intends to permanently locate. His wife
and her sister, Mrs. vogle, preceded the
Doctor some weeks, where they went to
enjoy the dry atmosphere of the Pacific
Coast. The best wishes of all will 60
out after Mr.. and Mrs. White, who have
stood SO high in public estimation here.

will some day ''come and see us" and
renew the pleasures Of Auld Lang syne.

The Quintet Club Concert.

Next Tuesday evening We will witnes,
the first effort of the above Club in their
worthy object of elevating and widening
the taste for music Of the higher order
among the people Of Los Angeles. This
Club should be patronized by our peo.
pie. and encouragement given these mu-
sicians to continue in their good work.
1t 10 time that music was keeping pace
with the general march Of improvements
in Los Angeles, and If the Quintet Club
will play ensample for half year, we
predict and claim that it can hold ita
own against any Club Of its kind on the
Coast. A feature Of the Club Concerts
will be the quintet accompaniments in
stead Of pianoforte as heretofore. After
the concert here the Club goes to San

The Raymond Excursion.

The Raymond excursion party, the
names Of which were published in tho
HERALD by telegraph, yesterday. arrived
in the city yesterday by special train at
half past o'clock P. NJ. The train con-
sisted Of six Pullman cars and baggage
car, well filled with the solid men of
New England.
On the arrival of the train the party
alighted at the new depot, where an ex-
cellent dinner was ready for the appe-
tites of the Joyous party. The weather
was most agreeable. There was no heat,
or cold, or wind. or mud to meet the
excursionists from the home of the frost
king as they arrived in the land
Where falls not hail, or any snow,
And ever winds blow softly
There was soft haze and hush in the
atmosphere that seemed to precede the
downpour Of winter rain. The mem-
bers OF the party with whom our re-.
porter conversed, stated that since they
passed through San Gorgonio Pass they
began to realize by the air and the ver-
dure that they had reached the favored
land which the newspapers and their
fancy had painted for them.
After dinner two carloads of the party
went down to Santa Monica to spend
Sunday aud four carloads remained in
the city, to visit its scenes of interest
and also to take in visit to SanGabriel.
A large number of the excursionists are
elderly gentlemen of wealth, accompa-
MED by their wives and daughters. As
they are to stay in California for five
months, it is fair to presume that some
Of the fair ones will have the orange
blossoms of Los Angeles Transferred from
the blooming trees to their golden hair
before their return to Marblehead and
Plymouth rock. Many of the party
are capitalists who have retired from
business, and have come here to spend
the Winter to avoid the chilly wind and
icy streets of the New England cities
Their arrival among the green fields
and growing grain in midwinter was a
pleasant surprise. As proof Of the
character of the season, these tourists
are referred to the HERALD of yester-
day, which contained the names Of forty
FIVE species Of wild flowers, found by a
single person, in blossom on iNew Years
day within the city limits. In our mar
kets are the mushroom and the straw
berry, new potatoes, pomegranates, green
peas, and occasionally raspberries;
oranges of two years production side by
side in company with the lemon and
lime, perpetual roses and heliotrope,
while the guava and persimmon add
their lusciousness to the general whole.
The grape has been ripe in the market
from July to January, and melons and
asparagus gracel the tables on New
Year. Add to these peculiar products
Of this season of the year all the crops
that can be grown in New England, aud
some idea may be formed of the wealth
Of production of Los Angeles.
