Lucky 1t Happened IN Town.


The San Pedro train which left for
that place yesterday morning, consisted
of forty nine fiat cars, a baggage car, and
another fiat car for the same purpose,
and four passenger cars for the steamer
passengers. just as conductor George
II. Peck had signalled the engineer to
start, the train moved about one hun
dred yards, and then stopped, but the en-.
gineer blowing three whistles, not know.
ing what he wanted to back for, con.
ductor Peck again signalled him ahead.
The answer was four whistles, which
means something broken, come for.
ward" Peck and all of the train men
got down to the front of the long train,
on trot in the heat. 1t was found that
the third fiat car back Of the engine had
broke the draw-bar, and was utterly
helpless. The engine backed the train
up, then went forward aud showed the
disabled car on the switch, then leaving
for San Pedro. But suppose this draw.
bar had not broken until the train was
at its usual rapid speed. A severe and
dangerous smash up would have resulted,
as the two pieces of the train could not
have been kept separate as far as San
Pedro.

Fishing Extraordinary.

Sam Tuttle, who is no connection Of
the "Lone Fisherman" but is neverthe-
less fisherman of more than ordinary
magnitude and ability, caught monster
Jew fish from the end Of the wharf at
Santa Monica yesterday weighing five
hundred and sixteen pounds. 1t took all
the strategy Tuttle aud his friends were
possessed of in order to haul his fish in
without exposing himself to the sea ser.
pent that was seenin the offing some time
since by some of our prominent citizens.
He implored Jerry Long, for the love of
heaven, to help him. jerry responded
promptly, but in doing so lost his bal.
ance and fell into the sea. He being O
good swimmer, naturally went for the
fish and landed his boat in elegant style
and then called ont "Sam, bring on

How Trucks Have Increased.

But few years since, there were but
three heavy trucks here, one owned by
John Osborne. one by Hellman, Haas 4
Co., and one by II. Newmark & Co.
These were sufficient for the trucking
business then, one each Of tho two
wholesale firms, and Osborne, TO supply
the merchants. There was railway to
Spadra, one TO Downey City, one to San
Fernando, and one to Wilmington, a
total of eigh,y-two miles. The heavy
hauling was all done by the ten and six
teen-mule teams, with the trail wagons.
Even mp to 1878. after two bad years,
the business of hauling was still light.
At present there is great increase in
the trucking business, which is steadily
growing to magnificent proportions.
There are twenty seven heavy trucks
in constant use in our city, and they are
not idle moment during six days in the
week. In connection with these there
are thirteen of the large spring wagons
used for lighter goods, glass. furniture
and crate goods, making forty vehicles
in all, and more have been ordered to
supply the growing demand.

ANOTHER AMERICAN sINGER-HIs PHENOMENAL
SUCCESS ABROAD AND SUBSEQUENT PRosTRA-
TroN BY ILL HEALTH.
During late years America has furnished to
the lyric and dramatic stage at home and
abroad, few artists of ability and genius,
who stand, to day, in the front ranks of their
profession the world over
There passed through this city yesterday Il
young American singer, Mr.. Lyman NJ Flagg,
who six years ago left his home in New Eng
land to cultivate his voice and musical talents
in Italy. There he studied under her most
noted masters. such as Scarfati, of Naples,
the eminent baritone Steller and the celebrat-
ed Vannuccni, of Florence; also Sig. Perini,
the popular Sangovanni and the renowned
Ronconi, of Milan. Mastering the language
and committing tho favorite operas, Mr.
Flagg made his debut early in 1882 at the
north of Italy, choosing the long and diff
cult role of Sir GiOTgi0 in II Puritani." Mr..
Flagg made twenty seven successive appear
ances in this rolo aud achieved q success so
marked and immediate that he was at once
rc-engaged, at II largely increased salary, for
the following season, offers also coming from
leading managers in Rome, Florence and
London. In oil the various cities wherein he
sang it was continued triumph and ovation.
He electrified his audiences by his phenome-
nal voice. superb method and easy, dignfed
stage presence, and was regarded by both
professional and critic as an artist of rare
promise and assured fortune. From the first
night no steadily gained in popularity, and
each successive appearance won him renew
ed applause, while tho press accorded him
unmeasured praise.
In the latter part of the carnival season of
's3, while singing Rug Bias and lone, he un
fortunately contracted severe cold, which
he could not overcome. Gradually becoming
hoarse, he finally lost his voice entirely and
while vet at Florence and within four weeks
of his first indispostiou, suffered hemorrh-
ages of the throat. Keeuly realizing this
grave admouition, and difficult as it was to
do so with the brilliant career before him, he
finally yielded to the imperative commands
of physicians to return to America for need
full rest and recreation,
Mr.. Fagg is now en- route TO his home
among the Berkshire hills from California,
where he passed the winter, encOuntering an
extremely wet and severe season, failing to
improve, as he and his physiclans had san
guinely expected. At San Antonio he suffer.
ed a return of the bleeding, and upon reach
ing West Virginia four weeks ago, was com
pletely prostrated, but is now fast improving.
While there he was attended by two eminent
physicians, who say he will in all probability
within two years fnlly regain hi4 health Hui
voice, ~ there In NO organic trouble yut de-
veloped. 1t will be an irreparable loss to the
lyric stage should Mr.. Flagg not return to it.
His speedy aud permanent recovery is sin
cerely hoped by his hosts of friends, and all
wko have the pleasure of knowing him.

Another mound all fair with snowy flowers,
Another form now silently at resti
Beneath morn rosy tlueh or moonlight hours,
He lies with folded hands across his breast.
Another mound for autumn leaves to strow,
And winter soon to spread with virgin white;
Where volets shall wake with heavenly blue,
And summer roscs make it sweet and bright.
Another silent mound on which the sod
Shall iresheu with the FIRST warm breath Of spring
Whero mid tho grass the sweet-faced flowers shall

Another form lost from lifes eager throng,
And In another home a vacant CHART
Another voice TO join the angel song,
Another brow tho spirits crown 20 wear.
On'earth one less to meet ife's care and i'll.
one less TO mourn for those who go before,
To feel the summers heat and winters chill,
But mid the white-robed throng one angel more
one angel moro to lead us, If we will,
Nearer the portals of the heavenly place;
Wearing the old sweet smile aud likeness still
But with immortal beauty on his face.
Another spirit mid celestial light,
While still the shadows fall around our way,
While still we yrarn to gain his clearer sight,
Aud see the glory Of the heavenly day.
Another young immortal ne'er to know
The cares that gather with the longthenng years
The mortal form in all its bloom laid low,
The bright eyes closed ere they were dimmed with
tears.
And well we know that If in tender care
Tho Father bends 10 mark each sparrow fall,
However death may come, we need not fear,
For IL can only be His loving call.
And cen as flowers in fragrant beauty spring
From silent graves whore sleep the young and fair,
So the freed spirit soars on angel wing
Ihro' deaths dark portals into heavens pure dir.
And though another mound we count to-day
Another form beloved wa fold 10 rest,
Though shadows gather all around our way,

THE CANDID1TES.
Grover Cleveland.

From sketch by frond.l
The present governor of New York, Grover
Cleveland, WAS born at Caldwell, n. Y, March
IS, 1887. lie was IL when his father died,
and an assistant OF his brother in the blind
asylum at is. In 1853 he set out for the West
with q companion, their objective point being
the growing city Of Cleveland but friends in
Buffalo persuaded him not to continue his
journey any further to the westward. Here
he studied law, was admitted to the bar, and
entered upon a successful law practice. In
1870 he was elected sheriff Of Erie county, aud
served one term in that office.
In November, 1881, Mr.. Cleveland was the
Democratic candidate for the office of mayor
of Buffalo, and was elected by a decisive ma
jority, receiving the votes of many of the OPP
posing party under the belief that he would
give the city a reform administration. His
record in this Office WAS such that the eyes of
all the Democrats in the state were turned
toward him as the coming candidate for gov
ernor He was elected to that office in No
vember, 1852, by majority of 1872, sj4 over
Charles j. Folger, the Republican nominee,
and he took possession OF the executive cham
Der on the lst of January, 1883.
Gov. Cleveland has vigorous, robust CON
stitution. lie possesses large frame, Is in
clined to corpulency, has Il nervous sanguine
temperament, light complexion, thin brown
hair with tendency to badness and his gen
eral makeup is what ladies would properly
decide to be good-looking. But none of them
have as yet succeeded in capturing his hand
or his heart, for he is still bachelor. He is
jovial, genial companion, and probably
chiefly delights in association with his own
sex. His residence is the executive mansion.
about half a mile distant from the capitol.
He always walks in both directions, and in
every respect maintains a republican simpli-
city. lie is emphatically a man of the peo-
