The Catching Concert.

One of the most enjoyable concerts we
have attended in Los Angeles was that
given by Mrs. Catching on Wednesday
evening. Mrs. Catching was assisted by
her pupils and by others OF our must
clans. Her pupils without exception re.
fiected great credit upon their instructor.
Especial mention should be made of
the vocal solo SO pleasingly and delicate
ly rendered by Mrs. Catching, Una
Voce POGO Fa," as also of the piano duet
executed by Mrs. Catching and Professor
Schaus, and the violin solo by Professor
Schaus. Mr.. Wallace's splendid bass
tones in Mariners Home by the Sea, .
made all true lovers of old ocean long for
the "broad, deep sea.
The four misses who rendered "Silver
Trumpets" showed Themselves quite mas
tiers of the undertaking. Miss Metcalf
acquitted herself quite creditably in a
especially in "a Mile of Edinboro' y
given as an encore.
A comical quartette. by Messrs
Shocks and PendletoD, Mrs. Brown and
Miss Wilmer, entitled Professor at
Home, gave a pleasing variety to an
otherwise classical programme.
Other numbers on the programme
were piano solo by Miss Metealf and a
piano guartette by Misses Metcalf. Gas
sen, Kinney and Whitloek.
The most striking as also the browning
performance Of the evening was the rem.
dering of Haydn's 'Toy Symphony in
Three Movements, by sixteen young
ladies and eight misses. None who
heard it will soon forget the "sweet and
low" of the cuckoo, or the ''song of the
blaekbird."
The entire class showed careful train
ing and no small degree of proficiency.
Mrs. Catching is an artist. Her manner
is pleasing, free from affectation and con-
ceits, and may with propriety be studied
by her pupils as model.

rhe state Board Of Equalization,

The state Board of Equalization.
Mr.. John Markley, a member of the
State Board of Equalization, and Mr..
John p. Dunn, State Comptroller and
er e6ieio, member OF the Board, are
here on their annual visit. In CONVEX
sation with the Herald reporter yester-
day Mr.. Marley gave the methods pur-
sued by the Slate Board, which cannot
fail to be interesting TO readers OF this
journal Mr.. Markley by the way is
from Salinas, Monterey county, where
he was County Clerk for several terms.
Each year the members of the board,
single or in pairs, visit the county seat
OF nearly every county in the state to
ascertain the value Of property. Their
methods are to go through as many ap
praisements of estates as they are able.
and then to get the actual figures at
which administrators sales are made dur
ing preceding couple Of years. A third
GLASS Of data they get from mortgages
made to banks. The rnle with banks is
to lend from 40 per cent. to 60 per cent.
of the value Of property. The mem
bers of the Board also make a careful
survey of sales for the previous year.
This they trust to less than the other
elements. Anything like a boom they
try to discount in their work. Then
they confer, whenever they are permit
ted to do SO, with the Assessor and Re
corder Of each county, and also with
prominent citizens, so far as they can,
so as to gather prevailing views upon
the situation. Taking all these to Sac
ramento they carefully tabulate the
comparison of the assessments OF the
counties.
Mr.. Markley thinks the property
should be classified and that the boom
should be allowed to raise county assess
ments by classes. He instances case
where all the sheep in a certain county
we're assessed at 81 head. while in all
the adjoining counties they were en-
tered at 81 80. Here was case they
could not reach by the present method.
As to the absolute ratio of assessment
Mr.. Markley thinks ~ to rs per cent Of
actual value is about the pivot round
which the assessment generally revolves
in the several counties. In onecase last
year they found county which they
considered assessed at SO per cent. OF its
actual value. They lowered it 20 per
cent. SO as to bring it about the level OF
the rest Of the State. As to assessing
the whole State up to actual value they
find it would necessitate the reconstruct
ing of all the assessed values of the
State. This would cost great deal of
time and money. So they try to act as
court Of equity in the matter.
Last year they added $40, 600, 900 to
the assessment of the State. THIS is
per cent. of the entire assessed value OF
the State. This, of course, only affects
the State taxes and makes no difference
in the County assessment.
These gentlemen will spend week
here in their Investigations.
By the way, Mr.. Dunn has a 20-acre
orange ranch at Duarte, on which he has |
been spending week prior to coming in |
yesterday to attend to the duties of his |
Office. He hopes one day to be a citizen
Of the County and take his otium cum
dignitate under his own vine and fig tree.

Among the recent great discoveries OF
science the preparation known a
Liquid Bread" is inst now attracting
widespread attention among medical
men and the public generally. 1t is an
absolutely pure extract of malt and has
proved to be the most valuable tomb
and remedial beverage which has yet
been introduced. 1t has a very low
alcoholic basis, less than three per cent.
combined with very high sugar, albumi-
mold and cellulose constituents, the
whole forming beverage which in a
most remarkable degree builds up the
system, restores the appetite and cures
impaired digestive power. The leading
physicians of this country and Europe
indorse this prt partition in q most I'M
qualified manner and their certificates
show that they consider it one of the
most valuable remedies of the present
age. 1t acts as tonic and mild stimu-
liant, and is complete substitute for
the ordinary alcoholic beverages. 1t
positively cures dyspepsia and restores
vigor in cases OF nervous debility as
nothing else can. Liquid Bread" has
been introduced on this Coast and
throughout the country by James A.
Pillsburry, representing David Nichol-

MRS. Buckfng HAMS Reception.
On Saturday evening, May LIST, at the
parlors Of the Baptist Church recep-
ton was rendered Mrs. w. w. Buck
inghsm, the gifted soprano Of Buffalo,
New York, by the ladies of the congre-
CATION in recognition of her valuable SER
vices in promoting and assisting at the
late very successful international
Fete" given under their auspices. They
also wished to mark their appreciation
of the ready generosity with which she
mas lent her glorious voice during her
stay in Los Angeles, whenever needed
in the cause Of charity or religion. The
ladies were kindly aided by some of the
finest musical talent in the city. To the
request that Mrs. Buckingham would
favor the company with one OF her
choice selections, that lady gracefully
responded by singing with inimitable
taste and power Miilard's Longing,
and on being encored gave that charm
ing and sprightly little ballad 'sTit for
Tat" AT the close Of the song Mrs.
Buckingham was conducted to chair of
state and crowned Queen of the May,
twenty little misses singing to graceful
evolutions "Tho Rosy Crown" and
dropping tributes Of flowers at her feet.
The gracious hospitality dispensed by
the Baptist ladies was one of the enjoy.
able features OF the occasion. The una
voidabIe absence Of Mr.. w. W. Buck
ingham, owing to the late railroad
washout, was the only regretable cir
cumstance. The day being the anniver-
sary of their marriage, his presence
would have greatly enhanced the happi-
ness OF all. The entertainment was one
Of artistic and social pleasure and will
long be remembered by the favored ones
present.
