The Second Night of the Kiraify
Ballet.


Ballet.
Not quite so large an audience as on
Monday night, but still very select
and enthusiastic one assembled last
night to witness the Kiralfy's IN
around the World in so Days. The
scenery was shifted with.a good deal
more facility than on Monday night,
but all does not run. smoothly yet by
a good deal. The supernumeraries
did good deal better too; but there
is much room for them to improve.
A good corps of trained people Of this
sort is indispensable in this city. The
Grand should train men for their own
use. The play runs the week.
The Pavilion.
The attendance at the Pavilion last
night was better than on the first pre-
sentation of Michael Stregof, and if
the condition of the streets improves
it will be still larger. Mr.. Vessels,
who is the star of the company, fully
sustans his reputation in his presen-
tation of "Ivan," and the balance OF
the characters are better represented
than has been the case heretofore on
this stage. The White Slave will be
presented tomorrow night, when a
crowded house is expected.

Caricat ure in Art.

Art has among all civilized people
been recognized as the highest ac-
complishment of man. There is no
mere industry which has been held
to hold 80 high rank as the results
OF the imagination. Mind is held to
be more than matter. The orator is
confessed to be greater than the ath.
lete. The work of the poet is held
in greater esteem than that of those
who built the Pyramids or of those
who reared the arches Of Rome. The
creations of The sculptor and of the
painter are treasured while the walls
of Babylon have been allowed to fall
into decay.
Art has in her highest moods been
universally earnest. High patriotism
burns in the winged words of
Homer and of Virgil. The fiery
eloquence of Demosthenes was ut
tered to stir his countrymen to deeds
of valor in defense of their country.
The loftiest aspirations of the
human soul are the themes on
which the great sculptors and paint
ers of all nations and ages employed
their chisel or brush. The same
facts are notable in the whole his
tory of the drama. 1t is earnest to
a painful degree in most of its
gifted authors. Tragedy has held
rank above comedy as a broad rule
since the Thespian devotees first ex-
alted their efforts to the standing
Of an art. Comedy in its
most distinguished examples
is scarcely less earnest in its purpose
than tragedy. 1t is just as in oratory
or rhetoric, logical methods may be as
severely followed, and a grand pur-
pose kept ss distinctly in view, albeit
the writer or speaker may clothe
his thoughts in ridicule, irony or sar-
casm, instead of using the more
ponderous, but not more Obstructive,
forms of invective or sober argument.
Thus the province of caricature is
distinctly recognized by the painter.
Gilray and Hogarth had their place
in art as clearly defined as Landsaer
or Rosa Bonheur. But under all carl
cature of a high order, and where
by real genius, there is al
ways an attempt at some original
Of the imagination. There
is thorough merit genius in every
stroke of the true caricaturist's pencil.
His work is not by any means pre-.
tense to do something which is not
done, and which he could not do.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-01-25
THE attempt to create another small

THE attempt to create another small
pox scare is based upon very flimsy
grounds. When that dread disease
became epidemic in San Francisco
several weeks ago, everybody feared
that the malady would be brought
here in some shape. 1t was the opinion
of some Of our leading physi-
clans at the time that we
should have rigidly enforced
quarantine measures against that
city. But, as this would look like
retaliation upon the metropolis for
her hasty and unnecessary action
against Los Angeles year ago, it was
thought best to leave the mat
ter of protection in the hands
of the State Board of Health,
an efficient and wide-awake body.
However, before any action was
taken, one or two mild cases of vario-
loid arrived here, and since their
appearance eight cases in all have been
reported. The authorities of the city
have not been idle, but have
done all in their power to pre-
vent the development of the malady.
Facilities for vaccination have
been provided, and wherever traces
of the disease have been discovered
they have been carefully followed up
and the patients quarantined. But
the facts, as attested by our physi-
clans, are not such as to justify seri-
GUS apprehension, much less any
sensational statements in regard to
them. They are such, nevertheless,
as to warrant all the precautions that
