On the arrival Of the train from San
Francisco yesterday afternoon the bag
gage men were handling big pile OF
trunks and valises in the baggage-room
when one Of the men, Garrett Lynch,
took hold Of a valise on top Of the
truck. As he tried to pull u off ter.
rife explosion took place, calling up al
hands on deck. The valise caught fire,
and was with some difiiculty put out
when big Colts revolver was found In
the gripsack. The pistol was of very
large calibre, and in pulling dowr
the valise one chamber was dis
charged, the bullet passing up
wards aud directly through the ROO
of the baggage room. 1t is not known
to whom the valise belongs, but certain
ly II is most careless proceeding te
carry 80 dangerous weapon about II
this loose style, endangsring tho life o.
people whose loss might prove terribly
disastrous to dependant family, not t
speak of the dreadful matter Of tbs
direct taking Of life.

1t is reported that orders have been
given by the President of the City Coun-
Gil directing the Confidence engine No.
to be used in pumping water from the
Figueroa-street zania to sprinkle on the
grounds Of the University Of Southern
California during commencement week.
After the experience of three years
ago it is strange that such proceeding
should be attempted again.
The university is outside of the city,
and the city taxpayers do not wish to
have the engines for which they paid
used for miscellaneous duty outside the
city.
The chief of the fire department is
out of the city, so there seems to be no
person with authority to prevent this
unwarranted movement.
The readers of the Herald remember
that three years ago the Confidence En-.
CINE Company was called upon to
sprinkle Figueroa street from this same
zanja for the comfort of the people who
attended the Stock show and races at
Agricultural Park. The work was well
done. but what was the result?
The powerful suction of the engine
was so strong that it drew the gravel
and quartz from the zanja into the en-.
CINE and ruined the valves and cylinder
to such an extent that the cylinder had
to be bored out at the railroad shops in
this city and new valves had to be made
at an expense, il memory serves
Alright, Of about $500, and loss of six
weeks Of the use of the engine to the
taxpayers of Los Angeles.
II the same engine is set to work to.
morrow to do a similar job, the expense
Will doubtless be the same or more, for
the cylinder was made so thin by the
last boring out that it cannot be bored
again, and new cylinders and valves will
have to be put in at heavy expense.
Then there il another consideration
not to be overlooked. While the engine
might be at West Los Angeles doing
this benevolent work, IL fire should
break out in the north part of town it
would be impossible for the engine to
reach the scene of danger without long
delay.
The probability is that if this order is
carried out the engine will be damaged
$3.50 and be disabled for six weeks,
leaving only one engine to protect the
city, and that might get broken, leaving
the city without protection. Even the
President of the City Council might
need the protection OF the fire engines
and find that they were like Rachels
children.
Under these circumstances il would
seem the proper thing for his Honor,
Mayor Spence, to forbid the use of this
| fire engine for outside works of charity.
A sprinkling cart could probably be
obtained for So per day to lay the dust
about the University, or a cheap force
pump and a two.Han power could be
obtained at the sam0expense to do this
very desirable duty. But to incur the
risk of using the steam fire engines for
this purpose should not be contemplated
except to decide not to do it.
1t is to be hoped that the Mayor will
prevent this absurd and unwarranted
proceeding on the part of the learned
leader Of the City Council.

THIS SPLENDID TRACT is in the very hear
Of Los Angeles. but one block west from
Pearl street, and situated on Eleventh
Twelfth and Pico streets. adjoining on the
latter street the elegant grounds and man
sion Of Mrs. Foreman.
THE Rowland ELECTRIC Moron RAILWAY
is now an assured fact on Pico street; the
rails are on the way here aud the cars will
be running in sixty days,
The price of these lots is exactly one-half
Of the sum asked for those adjoining on the
east, and which are unimproyed.
The success OF the Homesteads OF the
Southern California Land Company is
strictly owing TO the loo rate at whfch they
place their properties before the public and
the fact that they offer only frst-cldss city
locations. The high prices asked by middle
men for lots are avoided. The Company
desires to see the subscribers to these prop
critics gain handsome profit after the d.
vision of the Homesteads
The sale of this tract is on the homestead
plan (see law of 1892. as was the Childs
Tract and the Urmston Tract. The land is
sold as an entirety and delivered over to
the subscribers with all the Improvements
OF villa residences. planked sidewalks and
electric lights. without further charge than
the amount received in the aggregate from
the subscribers. each one of whom has a
vested right in the entire tract.
The meeting of the subscribers for the
distribution of these lots is fixed for Octo
Der 4th. 1886. The proceedings will be in
accordance with the agreement recorded in
the subscription book to the tract. and
signed by the purchasers.
No narrow streets. All streets aud ave-
nues are sixty feet wide.
The street railway on Pearl street. at the
corner Of Pico street. is within one block
OF the tract, and in sixty days Colonel How
lands Electric Motor Road will be com.
pleted and cars running on Pico street past
this entire property.

A SAD AFFAIR.
Accidental Drowning of MIR
KibbW3s Child.

Accidental Drowning of Mr.
Kfbby,s Child.
Mr.. H. Kibby, the assistant superin.
tendent Of the Second street cable rail
way, lost his little girl yesterday after
noon in very sad manner. A short
time since he moved into one of the new
cottages recently built by the company,
a short distance east of the engine house.
In the back yard is water closet, the
vault to which serves also for cesspool
to the kitchen wastepipe. The child,
who was about 20 months old, was out
in the yard and strayed into this house,
where she heard the water from the
kitchen trickling into the pool below.
She reached over to see where the water
was coming from, and losing her balance
fell through and was drowned. 1t was
of course some time before she was
missed, and some time longer before
found, SO that there was no hope of
restoration when the body was recov-
cred. Besides the mephitic gases in a
cesspool soon suffocate. Mr.. Kibby has
been here but few months, but during
that time his close attention to business
coupled with pleasant manners, has won
for him great many warm friends who
deeply sympathize with him and his
heart-broken wife in their terrible afilic
ton. The little girl was unusually
bright and attractive and the pet and
pride of the whole neighborhood. The
parents have one more child, an infaut
of about month old.

PROTECTION AGAINST FIRE.
some Facts of Interest to the
Public.

:
Public.
There is nothing of greater Importance
in community than proper precautions
against fire. In spite of Insurance and
we'll organized fire departments in the
large cities Of the country the annual
loss from conaagrations reach an ap.
palling sum. For years past the atten-
tion of inventors has been directed to-
wards the securing of some more eff
fectual means Of putting out fire than
water. Experiments have been made
with various articles, among them sew
eral patent gronades. Nothing in this
line. however, had given perfect salts.
faction until recently, and at last it
seems that a combination has been se-
cured which fully meets the require
nents Of every fire emergency. In the
comparatively brief period in which the
Giblin self-acting fire extinguisher has
been before the public of Southern Cali
fornia, Il has won golden opinions. 1t
| should be remembered that, unlike the
so-ealled grenades which have been in.
| troduced here before, it is not nec-
essAry to threw it into the fire and
break thick glass in the
operation to secure the desired
result. As is well known everything
depends upon speed in fire. When
| the ordinary grenades are used, if the
glass breaks and the fluid is scattered,
all may be we'll, but in case the glass
does not break, which often happens,
i &i.a dala,, IL fatal Tb;o has haan fh a
greatest objection to the grenades, but
it has happily been remedied by the
G iblin Self Extinguishsr. To this de-
vice is attached fuse, which ignites the
instant it comes in contact with the fire.
The fame instantly reaches the bottle
or case in which the fluid is hold, caus-
ing 1t to burst and scatter its contents.
The effect is almost instantaneous. The
flame ia extinguished with greater rapid
ity than if full stream of water was
turned on, and there is no damage done,
as is so frequently the case when water
Is used. So much interest has been
shown and there is such large demand
for this invaluable device that the com.
pany has established State agency in
this city, Messrs. Francisco & Co., No.
81 North Spring street, being appointed
agents. These wideawake gentlemen
have not been slow in calling attention
to this ingenious and effective
invention, and the result is that
it is coming into general use.
Among those who have lately
secured the Giblin self-extinguisher may
be mentioned: The Raymond Hotel,
Grand Opera House, Sisters hospital,
Normal school and the University of
Southern California. besides a large
number of mercantile establishme nts
and private residences. All through
the East it is in high favor and wher-
ever there have been public exhibitions
it has always come off victorious. At a
recent public test at st. Paul, where it
came in competition with the Hayward
and Hardin. a striking proof of the SUI
periority of the Gilblin was given, all
the buildings burning down except the
one on which 1t was used. 1t is the
only reliable fire extinguisher, and
should be in every house in California.
Good agents are wanted.

The four-act comedy. entitled ODE
ception, which is to be given by the
Owl Dramatic Club on Friday and Satur-
day Of this week, promises to be one Of
the host representations ever given by
this popular club. The play itself has
had great run Of popularity in its ma
tive country. and an adaptation Of it has
been very successfully played under the
title Of "7-20-S" in the leading cities OF
the United States. The translation
made by Miss A. F. George for the
Owls contains many original ideas in the
adaptation Of the comedy to the require
ments of English social life, and alto
gether presents very pretty picture Of
dialogue and manner.
The fact that the Owls will give the
performance for the benefit Of the Frank
Bartlett Post, G.. A. r will be an addi'
tional reason why the house should be
crowded at each performance.
