An Outside Harbor.

A gentleman, who came up from
San Pedro yesterday, states that the
large force Of Southern Pacific graders
now at work on the Southern Pacifc's
Company's proposed extension are get
ting along very rapidly. The new line
will run along the foot of the bluffs,
on tho west side Of the coinpany's
tracks, up and over the hill to the light
house, or in that vicinity. A great deal
of secrecy is maintained as to the OBJ
ject of this extension, and nothing pos
tive can be learned. It is rumored
that the Southern Pacific intends to
build an "outside" harbor, and that
q long and finely constructed iron pier
will be built to aid in loading and un-
loading the large ships that touch at
that port. Just where the pier will be
built could not be ascertained. The
grade Of the new line will be about
eighty feet to the mile until the sum-
NIT of the hill is reached; from there
It will be comparatively easy,

The Mexican Central.

A joint circular has been issued by
the Mexican Central, Atchison, Texas
and Pacific and st. Louis and San
francisco lines, asking connecting
roads to place on sale round-trip ex-
cursion tickets to the City Of Mexico.
The circular states that such tickets
have been put on sale at St. Louis,
Cairo, Memphis, Atchison, Leaven-
worth and Kansas City. The rate
from st. Louis is $92, and from Kan
sas City $50, Such tickets will proba-
bly, be issued by the Southern Pacific
soon. Those now being sold are good
going and returning via the same
route only, and orders of connecting
lines cannot be drawn for tickets GO
ing one route and returning by another.
The tickets are all limited to six
months from the date of sale and will
be good only for thirty days on the
"going passage" as far south as FL
Paso, and on the return portion of the
ticket, the stop.over will be allowed
at pleasure within the limits of the
ticket. The circular is the result of
the enterprise of the Mexican Central,
which has at last awakened to q
sense of the possibilities of its line as q
tourist route at similar rates to those
made by the American lines for the
same class OF travel.

At L0ng Beach.

The Long Beach hotel is filling up
rapidly, and there is every reason
why it should. 1t has ten miles of
beach, surf bathing every day in the
year, and is certainly one Of the finest
seaside resorts on the Pacific coast.
The Long beach hotel, under its pres

BEAUTIFUL VENICE.
Interesting Sketch by a Los An
geies Girl.
Written for the Herald

written for tho Herald
Venice was founded in the begin
ming of the fifth century. In 697 a
Doge, or Duke, was chosen. who was,
really, the President of the Republic ;
and in $40 the present site Of Venice
became a capital. The city is built
ON III islands in the lagoon, with
2194 canals, which pass under 37s
stone bridges. 1t has large lace and
glass factories. The Venetian lace
factory Of M. Jesurum & Gle employs
$500 women, who are paid twelve
cents each day; these women do
not live in the city, but principally on
the island of Pallestrina, where liv-
ing is much cheaper than in town
The Piazza di San Marco is second
only to Trafalgar Square, London, in
beauty and size. 1t leads down the
sea, surrounded by the Palace Arc
ades, st. Marks Cathedral, and m ar
BILE palaces, and is the center Of
Venetian life, especially in the even
ing when the bands play and the
cafes are crowded with people. For
the last seven hundred years flocks OF
pigeons have been fed here by the
city at 2 p. M. daily. It is believed
by the credulous that the pigeons are
in some way contested with the pros
perity Of the city.
THE CATHEDRAL OF ST. MARK.
is built in the form of Greek cross.
It has five gilded domes and more
than five hundred marble columns and
46, 900 square feet of mosaics, of which
the entire ceiling is made. Back of
the altar are four spiral alabaster col
umns, two Of which were brought
from Solomon's Temple. This church
stands on wooden piles, and has set
tied considerably in the last few years,
causing the flooring and ceiling to
crack in many places.
Charles Dickens, in his Pictures
from Italy," says: "Going down
upon the margin of the green sea,
rolling on before the door and filling
all the streets, came upon a place Of
such SURPRISING beauty, and such
grandeur, that all the rest was poor
and faded in comparison with its alb
sorbing loveliness. It was great
piazza, as I thought, anchored like
all the rest, in the deep
ocean. On it's broad bosom was
q palace more majestic and magnif-
icent in its old age than all the build
ings of the earth, in the high prime
and fullness of their youth; cloisters
and galleries 80 light that they might
have been the work Of fairy hands
so strong that centuries have battered
them in vain" This is the palace of
the Doges. The front wallis are en-
tirely Of white and red marble.

bridges irf Venice should have been

1.-THE Alliance>was not organized to
antagonize and abuse other classes who
by the nature of their occupation are
excluded from it's circle. Its mission
is to devise the ways and means of ex-
tracing the farmers andlaborers from
the unfortunate condition by which
some hook or crook they have fallen
into. If in the investigation and study
of the matter it is found to be partly
or wholly their own fault, it will point
out the error and insist on a change,

it is found to be wholly or in part at

insist on changing them olso, or if it
is found in any degree chargeable to
legislative abuses, it will point out the
evils and suggest a remedy and work

adopted the following among other
resolutions:
Resolved, Whereas it appears evil
dent that there is a disposition on the
part Of the capitalists and bankers to
abrogate OR destroy the present home
stead and exemption laws of Texas as
guaranteed to US in the Constitution,
therefore be it.
Resolved, That we the members of
Limestone County Alliance do regard
said laws as two of the best laws
for the people now incorporated in
the Constitution. That we will not
support any man for Office unless
pledged to support and fully main
tain said homestead and exemption
laws. That we do request Alliances,
throughout the State to think over,
discuss and agitate this matter so
that we may know the sentiments of
the order on this all important subject.
The homestead exemption in Texas
is two thousand dollars worth of land
and five hundred dollars worth of per-
sonal property. The Texas Alliance is
right in. guarding and defending the
