were arrested on Monday for stealing
clothes from the University, had
their examination for burglary set for
January 18th at 10 A. NJ, and were
committed in default OF $500 bail

Governor r. w. Waterman, &C.
compa led by s. P. Maslin, Secre-
tary OF the State Board OF Examiners
arrived in the city at 3 80 P. NJ, yes
terday. They are making the rounds
OF charitable and other institutions
endowed by State appropriations and
under the care of state officials.
They left Sacramento January Sd and
have visited among other places
San Quentin and San Jose. The visit
to San Qnentin was principally for
the purpose OF looking after the
jute factory establi~hed there. 1t will
be remembered the last Legislature
appropriated 100000 for that pur-
pose. During the last year the fac
tory has turned out 100, 900 sacks,
but the Governor has ordered That the
mill be run to it's full capacity by
three eight-hour shifts per day, thus
making it possible to turn out G,000,-
600 sacks during the year of 1888,
which amount he = links will
break the jute ring and give the
farmers what they have long looked
for--cheap sacks.
To-day the southern branch Of the
State Normal School will DE visited ;
Friday San Bernardino and later San
Diego. They will also visit the
orphans asylum at Santa Barbara at
an early date. At least a month will
be spent iu Southern California.

A CHASTITY AFFAIR.

The Ray mond Reservoir Com
pIeteIy Exhausted.
The scarcity of coal has been the
cause OF many unpleasant incidents
and has sorely affected the hostelrieS
whose bunkers were not we'll stocked
when the trouble commenced. The
Raymond, at Pasadena, has been un-
usually unfortunate, as the demands
on her light and fuel resources are
very heavy, and have in consequence
induced a state of things which, bnt
for skillful manage ment, would have
resulted in famine. Strict economy
has been observed ever since the
blockade drst promised to be serious,
but in spite of all precautions
it has proved impossible to
cope with the difficulty, and on
Monday night the gas was completely
exhausted. Candles were at once
called into requisition, and by their
mellow light, dinner was served and
the demands OF the evening and night
supplied. The same state of things
prevailed yesterday, but this morn :
ing will see the end of the Difficult y,
as car of coal is expected, the
pioneer of many others en- route, ,sand
the gas pipes will be once more filed
with the asphyxiating but luminous
compound and the festive candle
once more into the obscurity
from which it was so suddenly and
UNEXPECTEDLY called.

Furniture Company.
1t will be remembered that the en-
ployees of the Los Angeles Furniture
Company had just concluded the an
nual inventory OF stock at the time the
fire destroyed the blishment. For
tunately this inventory was saved,
and when footed up it was found that
the main building in which the princi-
pal part OF the damage had been done,
had contained goods valued
at $ll6,S50. Ever since the
fire The Underwriters have been
busy in figuring up the losses aud in
endeavorns to reach q satisfactory
adjustment. 1t was found that there
had been an insurance of s9l, 900 on
the furniture in the main building
but considerable quantity had been
saved, and The Underwriters proposed
that the Los Angeles Furniture Com
pany deduct> its value from the
amount to he paid. The Los Angeles
Furniture Company offered to give
$25 900 for this furniture, but
the Underwriters thought the,
could do better, so they paid the COM
pany the sllG,850 and ook the furni-
ture to dispose OF as suits themselves,
which will be by auction TO be held
shortly.
This settlement is good thing for
the Los Angeles Furniture Company,
for by it the company is enabled to go
into the market and purchase an en-
tirely new and fresh line OF goods for
the opening, which will not be very
long hence.

propose to give Grand Rapids on oIr first
visit the best We have got. The company
which has been organized for years, Is
stronger today than ever before. We give
grand opera as Il has never been giyea before
in this country. At the urgent request OF
Manager Berger We have consented 10 DO
something We never have done before, and
that is TO place the price of the reserved
seats at no higher than Sl.2o. This will
give all the opeTa-loving people o. this city
an opportunity to hear grand opera as never
before sung by any company without the
great outlay for seats. Our company COM
prises seventy people. There are ten artists
of known and acknowledged merit and
reputation; we have a chorus OF fifty voices,
and such voices never were hesrd before IN
cnorus, and We carry our own ORCHESTRA
and leader. Miles. Zelie de Lussan and
Miss Harriet Avery, the sopranos, have a
worldwide reputation. w. III. Clark
and J. c. Miron, the bassos, are
also well known. George Appleby,
the tenor, is the best English-singing
tenor in the country. Fritz Williams and
Clement Baunbrid are comedians of the
first order. Miss Helen Dudley Campbell
Is the contralto and has a wonderful voice.
and Miss Louise Edgar. the soubrette. has
not an equal in the country.
We will give Fra Diavolo" on Friday,
''Victor. the Blue Stocking at the Saturday
matinee. and Carmen" on Saturday night.
All of these operas are strong and are
wonderfully put on. We have just con-
cluded an engagement with these operas
in New York aud Boston where the COM
pany was received with the widest en-
thusiasm, and / have no fear but that the
people of Grand Rapids will appreciate
US.
Our performances are artistically perfect
as they can be made. The costumes are
new and splendid and the company Is the
strongest ever put on the road.
The Ideals will po at Powers Oper s
House on the Goth and 3lst, and there is
no doubt that the engagement will be
