A NEW SCHOOL HOUSE.
The Sisters of Mercy TO Erect q
S15O,OOO Structure.

The sisters of Mercy TO Erect n
S15O,OOO Structure.
The Sisters Of Mercy intend to add an
architectural beauty to the city in the
shape OF massive new school house, ,and
for this purpose they have purchased
twelve acres at the corner of Stevenson
and Boyle avenues. The new building
will be three stories high and constructed
of brick and granite, and will be erected
at cost of $150,o00. 1t will have 240
feet frontage on Boyle avenue and will
be 116 feet deep. The edifce will be
built in two wings and three sided, after
the style of the Raymond Hotel at Pasa-
dena. The basement will contain store
rooms and furnaces, which are to
be used for heating the building
by steam. The first floor will be occupied
in one wing by the kitchen, dining-room
and store-rooms, the other wing will
contain the reception, class and music
rooms, and the first floor in the main
building will also be used for reception
and class rooms. The second floor will
be used for study, exhibition, sewing
and play rooms, and the third floor will
contain the dormitories, chapel and lava
tory. The attic will be used for store
room. and tower which will grace the
top of the main building will be occupied
by the belfry and huge water tank.
Hardwood is to be used in all parts, and
this, combined with the granite fac
ings, will make the building almost
fre-proof. Altogether there will be
accommodation for 200 children
and boarders, vast improvement on the
present quarters on Macy and Alameda
street, which are to be placed on the
market at once. The building is de-
signed by Messrs. Curlett, Eisen & Cuth-
bertson, of this city, and all of the plans
have been perfected. 1t is not probable
that building operations will be com
menced until the present establishment
is sold, after which, however, work on
the new structure will be pushed to a
speedy conclusion.

NOT GUILTY.
John Nelson Acquitted In the United
States Court.

John Nelson was tried yesterday in the
United States District Court on charge
of cutting timber on Government land.
The testimony showed that Nelson had
taken contract to burn a quantity of
lime for parties in Kern county, with the
understanding that he would be allowed
to cut all the wood needed from the
premises owned by the parties. Wood,
however became scarce, and he cut IS0
cords from land which he said he did not
know belonged to the Government. The
jury returned verdict of mot guilty."
holding that there was no criminal intent
on the part of defendant.

Assigned.

Messrs. Karns & Harron, proprietors
of the Westminster Hotel, on the corner
of Fourth and Main streets, made an
assignment yesterday morning to Mr.. j..
D. Hooker. The assignment was sur
prise to great many, but it is stated
that it will not cause any Inconvenience
to the guests, as the hotel will be kept
open for the benefit of the creditors.
The inventory has not as yet been filed,
and the exact condition Of affairs is moi
known, but it is thought that the assets
are fully as large as the liabilities.

A PROBABLE STRIKE
Among the Employees of the Cable
Railroad.

1t is very probable that a strike will
occur tonight among the laborers en-
ployed by the Los Angeles Gable Rail-
road in the construction Of their new
tracks. Hitherto the men have been re-
munerated at the rate OF from $1.75 to
1925 per diem according to the nature of
the work performed, but the officials of
the road have decided that this is too
much and have ordered a reduction Of
twenty-five cents day all round. This
decree will go into effect tonight and
the men will petition against its being
sustained. If the company, however,
declines to rescind the order the men
Twill refuse to go to work tomorrow
morning.

A New England Girl In the South.

There has been so much said about
southern women succeeding in the
north that it is refreshing, as a change,
to hear Of a northern womaI succeed
ing in the south. 1t is necessary to
say that on a sugar plantation some
n is always employed at grinding
season to weigh the cane. This is done
by driving the wagon with its load upon
the platform of the scales, registering
its weight, and when the wagon comes
back empty weighing it a second time,
deducting one weight from the other
and crediting the remainder to the
man who is selling the al to the
owner of the sugar house. This re-
quires much work out of doors in bad
weather, a quick eye. an accurate
knowledge of accounts and a good
memory. 1t is usually the work of an
intelligent young man, who is paid $50
a month and his board. Fortune took
a New England girl up into what is
known as the coast country of the
sugar region in Louisiana. She was
penniless and asked for work. This
situation was offered her, more in jest
than earnest, for no woman had ever
before such a place. The plucky New
Englander accepted it on the spot, pro-
vided herself with stout boots and a
waterproof and went to work without
hesitation. She gave perfect satisfac-
tion to her employers, grew to like the
work herself, and has proved there is
yet another line of effort open to those
of her sex looking for employment

Nc HErNN@ - - AEt
The United States Consul at Mar.
settles has recently been the round Of
the principal districts in to Alps Mari
times, where flowers are grown for the
purpose Of making scent. such as
grasse. Seillans, ETC., and has sent q
very interesting report upon the sub
ject to his government. One OF the
largest flower farms visited was that OF
the Marquise de Rostaing, at Seillans,
about 1000 feet above the level Of the
sea. and twenty miles from the coast,
upon the southern slope of the Alps
Maritimes. The soil is of q chalky ma
ture and very poor, and up to 1881 the
olive groves which covered the proper
ty yielded but a very small income.
Nine. de Rostaing, however, deter
mined to see whether it could not be
made to grow flowers, and, cutting
down the olive trees, she had the ground
trenched to a depth of owe 4 feet,
while arrangements were made for IL
rigating the five-and-twenty acres. In
the autumn of 1881 she had planted
5 1000 plants of violet and lao 900 feet
of white jasmine, while in the spring
following, the rest Of the ground was
planted with roses, geraniums, jon
auils, etc, and a laboratory built for
making scent. The result was most
satisfactory; for in the fourth year
that is to say, in lSs5-the property,
which had before yielded an income Of
f23, produced scent to the value Of
1883. leaving a net profit of elsa. The
nature of the soil was such that the
preliminary outlay had been IN excep-
tionally heavy one; while, as the inter-
est on the capital expended is in
cluded in the above estimates, and as,
moreover, the flowers planted had not
attained complete maturity after four
years. growth, it will be readily under
stood that the business can be made a
very profitable one.-N. james Gazette.

The New Celestial Charts.

Admiral Mouchez reports that prepa-
rations for making the projected pho
togrnphic charts of the heavens are
progressing favorably. and that the
work OF the astronomers will probably
commence in 1889. 1t il expected that
ten Of the special telescopes-from
Paris and Dublin-will lie forwarded
by the close Of 1888 to o~5servatories in
France, Spain. South America, and
Australia. These telescopes are to
have uniform apertures Of thirteen
inches, and all photographs are to be
made to Q uniform scale OF about two
and one-third inches to a degree. The
principal chart will show all the stars
Of the entire heavens down to the four-
teenth magnitude. Russia. Great
Britain, and the United States are de.
pended upon to aid this great astronom-
ical undertaking.

Strange Case of DIR. Jekyll and Mr..

write a story ON this subject, to find a
body, q vehicle, for that strong sense
of mans double being which must at
times come in upon and overwhelm the
mind of every thinking creature. l
had even written one. "The Travelling
Companion" which was returned by an
editor on the plea that it was o work Of
genius and indecent, and which burned
the other day on the ground that it was
not a work OF genius, and that ~"Jekyll"
mad supplanted it. Then came n of
those financial fluctuations to which
with an elegant modestyl l have hith-
erto referred in the third person. For
two days l went about racking my
brains for Is plot of any sort; and on
the second night / dreamed the e
at the window, and q scene afterwards

for some crime, took the powder and
