record, not excepting even Indiana What

Parentage of Harrison.

EDITORS HERALD-Interested parties
are inquiring in regard to the immediate
ancestry Of Gen. Harrison (the Republi-
can candidate for President). Did he
have any father and mother like other
folks? It has been customary in times
past to have all the Republican candi-
dates for the Presidency represented as
ssthoroughbreds," from pure blooded
stock. Fathers and mothers have been
brought to the surface in elegant style.
But, in the present instance, We hear lit
tie or nothing Of the candidates immedi-
ate parentage. All We hear and can
pcssibly know Of Harrison's pedigree is

It scores Another Success I'm the
Musical World.
The rain of last evening interfered
somewhat with the attendance at the
special concert of the Philharmonic So
ciety, but Turnverein Hall was fairly
we'll filled, about four hundred of the
most musical people of the city being
present. The numbers on the pro-
gramme were the same as those given at
the concert last week, and the Society
deserves the greatest praise for the good
it has done in giving to the citizens OF
Los Angeles a chance to hear and enjoy
the same music as is presented
in similar form in New York and
in Europe. 1t was considered doubtful
when this society was organized as to
whether it would be success, but the
two concerts it has given has established
it's success beyond a doubt. The intro.
duction of an orchestra as a part OF the
Society was unprecedented on the Coast.
The Loring Club of San Francisco,
which is the oldest organization on the
Coast of a similar nature, gives three
of its concerts each year without an
orchestra, and for it's fourth concert it
employs one of perhaps thirty pieces.
The Philharmonic already has an orches-
ira numbering fifty pieces, and its excel
lent work last night astonished those who
were present, who had not imagined
that Los Angeles could produce any
thing 60 excellent in practice, Inc
chorus which numbered nearly a hun.
dred sang much more perfectly than
could have been expected. Miss K. ".
Kimball, who sang the solo parts in
Mendelssohn's Loreley, possesses an
excellent voice which stood the test
imposed by the difficult score wonder
fully we'll. Miss Kimball comes to Los
Angeles from Boston, and is decided
acquisition to the Los Angeles musical
talent. Prof. Bornemann has fine voice
which showed to advantage in the "Hail
Bright Abode" Of Wagner. The musical
success of this society is due to Mr.. Will
hartitz, it's efficient leader. He handles
the baton in manner equaled by few in
the United States.
The society will start Immediately to
prepare for it's concert to be given at
Christmas and at this Mendelssohn's
'Hymn of Praise" will be'given. This
composition was given last week in San
Francisco by the Handel and Haydn
Society and it created quite sensation.
Entry to the chorus and orchestra is still
open for those who desire and applicants
should visit Mr.. Willhartitz at his Office

iZatiOn.
Yesterday mornings session of the
Women's Christian Temperance Union
was called to order by the President Mrs.
Lucy Drew More. Devotional exercises
were conducted by Mrs. Lewis Wright OF
Pomona; the journal of the previous
afternoon was read and approved together
with the minutes of Wednesdays l

Modena, Recording Secretary Mrs. Anna
7. Armor OF Los Angeles, Treasurer. The
reports of the different Superintendents
Of Departments showed great gain over
last year, especially was this the case
with the foreign work. The Superin-
tendent of Press Work, Mrs. S. E. A.
Higgins Of Santa Barbara, said the
Women's Christian Temperance Union
was generally asked to occupy space in
local papers except during the campaign
and that each state should have
its own official organ. In the
Department of Soldiers the hos
pital work had been looked after
closely, DIR. Dozier, the presiding physi-
clan, was given much credit for his help.
Juvenile work was reported upon by
Mrs. Lucy s. Blanchard, who in connec-
ton with it gave most interesting ac-
count of her own Band of Hope work in
Los Angeles. Within the year her band
has given nineteen Demorest medal
contests, winning seventeen silver and
two gold medals.
On motion it was decided that the
next annual meeting of the Southern
California W. L. T. U. will meet in the
Temperance Temple in Los Angeles.
In the evening there was platform
meeting. The principal address was
from Mrs. E. j. Davis, Of Riverside, on
the subject of Prohibition" Miss Flor
ence Dunham, the State Superintendent
of Y. w. w., presented banner to the
union doing the most work in the course
of year.
The executive council meets again this
morning, but the convention concluded
with yesterdays session.
The Caledonian Club gave a reception
to DR.. Mackenzie last evening. There
was crowded attendance. A large mum.
Der Of those present had enjoyed the
Dr.'s acquaintance and ministrations in
San Francisco and received him with
great cordiallity, while those who met
him for the first time were charmed with
him. McGregor Mcdonald, the piper, M.
D. Bell and Robbie Burns were in full
Highland costume. DR.. Mackenzie leaves
tonight at 10 O'Clock for Fresno, where
he will dedicate the new Presbyterian
Church next Sunday and deliver his cele-
brated lecture on "Husbands"kthe fol-
lowing Monday evening for the benefit OF
the new church. His many friends re-
gret that his stay in Los Angeles was SO
short.
