SANTA BARBARA, December 5.-The
four days celebration of the Santa Bar
bara Mission Centennial began to-day
under favorable auspices. The princi-
pal events consisted in religious services
at the Old Mission Chapel, the founds-
tion of which was begun December 4.
1856, that day being chosen to conse-
crate the foundation because it was the
annual fiesta of the Virgin, Santa Bar
bara. A 10 A. M. a solemn high mass
was celebrated and sermon preached
in English by the Very Rev. Father
Vincent Venges. Fourteen priests A.
sisted in the ceremonies. Over two
thousand people attended the services,
many Spanish ladies being dressed in
Spanish costumes in vogue 100 years
ago. The chapel and altar were bril-.
liantly Illuminated with 800 candles
The chapel front and towers were pro-
fusely decorated with Spanish aud
American flags and bunting. Lambil-
lots beautiful mass was rendered by the
choir, under direction of Prof. Hall, &C.
companied by his orchestra. In tho
afternoon solemn vespers and the
benedlction were attended by an inn
mense congregation. Last nights
steamer brought down many visitors
and the San Luis Obispo cornet band,
which will furnish music during the Gel
ebration.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1886-12-06

OF the $245, 900 bonds voted for a spe.
cific purpose, great many have been
sold. By looking at the City Treasurer's
report for November the Bridge Fund
shows $4,000, and the other improve.
ment funds only $4,000 What has
become of the balance, eh? You want
me to ask you something easier, do
you?
"The police department has been in
efficient under Republican rule also.
Whilst tramps run around amuck, beg
ging to be arrested, number of police
men have been detailed to gsurd at both
ends, day and night, an obscure street
named New High. 1t is the home of a
number of women of loose virtue, and as
the street is not on the highway to any
important place, of course, is only Wis
tied by people whose morals won't suffer
from the association, Well, sir, high
moral grounds were given out as the
reason for this game of freeze out by
the exponents in power of the party of
grand ideas against few females. But
you may notice that in no other quarter
of the town are common women molest.
ed, not even in upper Main street, a
place much more travelled than
New High, and where the
women show even greater brazenness.
1t is said that this game of freeze out is
in the interest of a company, who con-
templates buying up all the land on New
high street occupied by these women,
and that the intention is to depreciate
the land by making the present tenants,
hn L,ob oil
that reason, possibly, also has the elec.
trio mast been ordered from Buena Vista
street to the middle of the demi.monde
quarters in New High. Morality etc.,
seems to hold bad poker hand in that
game, don't il? In the meantime the
police arrest nothing, but the constables
do their work, and for every tramp they
arrest the taxpayer goes down into his
pocket Sc. The officers say that it is no
use arresting tramps as the mayor is too
good natured to apply the law.

"that one of the morning papers tries to
make whack at you about the tunnel?"
"Well, sir" replied the gentleman,
