was small lake, its edges bordered
with such, tropical plants as one usually
sees in pictures but seldom in reality.
There was a grotto cut out of the rock

gushed through holes cut for it in the

Of rocks, and was caught In, q basin Of

half-covered with = green leaves and

There wers more lakes anu more
grottoes and natural cascades where
the water fell from considerable heights

over the rocks. Near tile shore of the
largest lake was small cottage, with

ever saw gathered together before. 1t

Last night at Opera Hall an assembly
Of elegant people filled the entire house
to the very doors, on the occasion Of an
entertainment under the auspices of the
Caledonian Club. Numbers one, "Bon-
ME, Sweet Bessie, the Maid Of Dundee, y
and nine, "We Better .Bide Wee,
were given by Mrs. w. W. Bucking
ham, whose fine vooalization won from
the audience that warm and large recog-
milton always accorded the lady when
she appears. She was recalled last
night, as usual, and each time her sing
ing was applauded to the echo. Mr..
Marcus Shook, in numbers two, "Mary
of Argyle and SIX, "Scots Wha Haze
Wi Wallace Bled," added greatly to the
pleasure of the evening, singing in his
usual spirited and accurate manner.
MIR. G.. A. Dobinson contributed by
reading the "Cotter's Saturday Night
with that faultless attention to detail
and finish for which he Is SO dis
tinguished. The address Of Hon. 4. F.
Spence, in which the gentleman told
what he saw in "Blithe and Bon
ME Scotland" was a very graphic
and interesting sketch which was closely
listened to and received with every note
of satisfaction on the part of the audi
ence. Miss George in three or four
Scotch ballads pleased every ear with
her line and sympathetic voice and ex-
Gallant execntion The numerous re-
calls indicated the enthusiasm of her hear
ers. Mr.. Tom Barnes recited Jamie
Douglas" and inanswer to arecall gave a
humorous sketch which ELECTED peals of
laughter from the audience. The last
number was the Sailors Hornpipe, y
danced by Miss Maud Reese and danced
very well. The whole assembly sung
''Auld Lang Syne" and the floor was
cleared for dancing. which was kept up
until the "wee sma' hours"

left, and told her to use them. ! re-
turned Saturday and turned him onto
his left side, the FIRST time he had
been moved. On Friday bis pulse
was weak and he could not
locate the pain. Saturday pulse was so
fiuttering / could not count It. There
we're slight bruises on several portions
Of his body. In the evening there was
but little change in his condition-pulse
was a little better, regular, but weak.
Sunday dressed the wound. was at
the postmortem examination this after
noon His condition was about as indi-
Gated above. There was large effusion
of blood in abdomen. There seemed to
be capillary hemorrhage. There was q
transverse fracture Of the os cdtcis.
THE CAUSE OF DRATH
Was, in my opinion, the injuries re-
ceived and the shock to the nervous
system, including the hemorrhage de-
scribed above. There was some inflam-
nation In the peritoneum, but not suft
ticient TO produce high pulse. A man OF
his weight falling would alone, without
any other injury, produce the hemor-
rhage. This alone would not cause
death. The inflammation in a man OF
his age would cause death. For his age
he was man of more than ordinary
vitality.

A Pasadena highland Home.


Seekers of home property should visit
the grounds to be sold at auction Thurs
day, February 25th, in Pasadena High
lands. Too much in their praise cannot
be said; visit alone will convince you
that perfection of location is moderate
estimate of their actual worth. Resi-.
dents of the valley who saw this locality
after having purchased their homes,
have expressed sincere regret thai
they did not first examine this most
beautiful site.
We do not wish you to rely solely on
our representations, but do ask and
urge you to go out and see for yourself.
The grandeur of the scenery will well
repay cost and trouble. Take your ma
rine glass with you, as the scenery is
limited by the limit Of vision only. So
long as YOU intend to build a home
somewhere in this vicinity why not first
see if what we claim is not true, viz:
That no site near Los Angeles compares
with it in beauty of scene and magnifi-
cence of surroundings. These lots in
size nearly one-half acre each, permit
cultivation of the finely developed fruit
trees and vines they now contain.
Mountain water of the best quality
piped to each lot.

visitors. A special excursion train will

Miss Minnie +. Young MT the
Vienna.

On Sunday night when this promising
young actress opened at the Vienna
Garden in the "Convicts Daughter, the
house was filled from footlights to the
door. The little drama is very inter
esting one, full of thrilling situations
and telling repartee. The "Hattie
Salisbury" of Miss Young is a cleverly
done impersonation which drew very
good measure of applause from all parts
OF the house. The young lady has been
here before in subordinate positions
when she won recognition at the hands
of Los Angeles play -goers The setting
and costuming of the peace is not what
it should be to do Miss Young justice,
the same remark would apply to
some of her support. A striking
exception to this is "Rogers, tramp"
as interpreted by Mr.. Scott Cooper. In
makeup and in rendition this sketch is
very realistic. Last night, in spite Of
many counter attractions the house was
well filed and full Of enthusiasm. Ii
is the intention of the management to
make the Vienna a nice family resort.
New scenes are being painted and the
building will be much improved in APP
pearanee soon. There is no bar in the
house, and mo smoking" is rule to be
rigidly enforced. A successful season
should be a certaia result.
