One of the chief characteristics of the
American Soldier is, he stands head and

That is no mean or ignoble spirit that

ceil. Roscoe Conkling at the Chicago
convention on the nomination OF Ulysses
S. Grant for tie presidency, gave us the
right key to the Soldiers standing, when
he quoted the familiar words, "And
when asked what state he halls from,
our sole reply shall be, He halls from
AppomattoX, and its famous apple.tree."
Politically the American Soldier, as such, 4,

spirit of patriotism and having passed
through.the fire and smoke of over n
hundred battle fields, when men did not

marched proudly over state lines, shook
off tile shackles of party spirit and in
this spiritual emancipation of himself
an inhuman bondage. In this respect
the Great Army of the Republic stands
far above the American churches and
his conduct is worthy Of universal admi-
ration. No,color line here. The parti-

THE AMERICAN SOLDIER.

There were very few bloodthirsty men in
the union army. Grant, the great captain

tortured by the frequent alaughters Of the
battle field. Each soldier longed to return
to the peaceful pursuits of domestic life.
Each soldier, II such thing could be,
would rfface IRON his memory the scenes
he witnessed in the terrible conflict through
which he passed. The Grand Army Of the
Republic does not hold its annual reunions
for the purpose OF gratifying bloodthirs,y
spirit. These reunions are for very
different purpose. They are instituted and
kept up at great expense to show what has
been done TO preserve the union of the
states and 10 keep alive the spirit OF pa
trio,sm. On this account the sacrifices
they have made and the brave deeds they
have performed ought to go down to pos
lerity. The welfare OF the nation demands
the culture and constant growth OF o
patriotic irirlt. The Gettysbutgs and
Andersonvills that tried mems souls, must
not be forgotten. 1t will not do to pull
down the monuments and destroy the bat
tie lAgs OF any just and successful war.

American soldier will never provoke a

WELL ATTENDED.
The W. r. C. Fair a Great
Social Success.
l PLEASANT HOP LAST NIGHT,
Mrs. General Fremont to Be Pres.
ent TO-day-To-night's
Programme.

The crowded attendance at Armory
Hall last night proves that the popular
ity of the Women's Relief Corps Fair
does not wane as the days roll by. Dur
ing the afternoon, visitors dropped in
in goodly numbers to take look at the
booths which were undergoing replenish-
ing at the hands of their untiring keep
ers. The lunch between II and has
been a very successful institution and
the ladies in charge have shown their
good sense in placing clean, palatable
food before their patrons instead of
indigestible knicknacks of a more
fanciful nature. The entertainment
last night consisted of social
hop and this drew hundreds of people on
the floor, while as many more looked
down from the galleries and aisles on
the merry scene spread before them
Waltzes and polkas kept the dancers
busy until late hour and "lights down"
had to be enforced to clear the hail. At
the booths number of handsome addi-
tions have been made among
which is a finely designed crazy
quilt to be voted to the most pop
ular Los Angeles city editor, and another
of smaller design to be voted to the most
popular young lady in the Relief Corps.
A lot in East Los Angeles is to be given
to any one who can guess the nearest to
the number of pieces in a large jar
OF type metal, composed of collection
of quads and spaces and odd letters, all of
different sizes. The chances are only
twenty-five cents, SO some lucky indi-
vidual will reap a good reward for his
enterprise. The ladies of the Depart
ment booth wish to call attention to
the set of furniture in their etand which
is to be raffled off during the week. The
tickets are 81 each, and the winner will
have enough household goods to start
housekeeping with on a small scale.
Mrs. Fremont and daughter will be
present at the lunch hour to-day, and
will remain until some time in the after
noon. The programme this evening
will consist of military spectacle and
tableaux, which will in all probability
end with dance.

A Charitable officer.

Officer Dixon, of the police force ap-
pears to be an unusually charitable man.
Yesterday afternoon man who gave his
name as VIM. Phelan, came into the
station with telegram which he had
Just received from San Francisco con-
tanning the information that his mother
was dead. The man was much agitated.
He said he had no money and desired
very much to get back to San Francisco
to see his mothers face once more be-
fore she was buried. His grief was evil
IDENTIFY genuine and the officers TO whom
he told his story were profoundly touch
ed. Finally Officer Dixon said that he
would see what could be done, and took
the man to the ticket Office and paid his
fare to San Francisco.

Fined For Fighting,

Mamie Andrews, the otLer party to
the great Andrews-Powelson mill, which
took place several weeks ago, came be-
fore Justice King yesterday. She with
drew her former plea Of not guilty, and
substituted that of guilty. She was fined
$40 by the Court, which she paid. Off
Ger Phelan, who was one of the wit
nesses to the affair, and who failed to
appear at the trial of Minnie Powelson,
states that it was through no fault of his
that he so failed, as he was sick that day
subpoena was served on him requiring
his attendance. His testimony, it ap-
pears, was not necessary to the case.

Detectives Emil Harris and Mr.. Glass
have not been idle for the past few days.
Besides being busy in attending to the
operations of gang Of sneak thiefs, Of
whom they captured seven in connection
with Detective Metzler, they managed to
recover valuable lot of goods yester-
day morning, which had been stolen on
Wednesday night from Santa Monica.
The goods consisted of two double and
five single sets of harness, five buggy
robes, buggy cushions, whips, ETC.,
which were taken from Mr.. H. G. Bev-
ills livery stable. The thief or thieves
had driven off with spring wagon load
of the goods used by Mr.. Beville in his
business, and Messrs. Harris and Glass
had recovered the goods by ten O'Clock
this morning, as quick piece of work as
was ever done in this city. Mr.. Beville
was about to purchase new outfit.

THE NEW COUNCIL,
SpeculatiOMs as to It's Officers and
AppOintees.

SPcCuldtAOMS az 10 ItB UIIlCerS an q
AppOintees.
1t is expected that a caucus of the
Democratic members of the new Council
will be held tomorrow, and that the
preliminaries for the first meeting on
Monday next will be arranged. The
question as to who shall be President ol
the Council still agitates the minds oi
those who have no aspirations that way
themselves. 1t is understood that Cap
tain Barrett, Mr.. Cohn and Mr.. Hanley
are making efforts in this direction, and
there has been some talk of giving the
Craftsmanship to Mr.. j. Kuhrts or DR..
Bryant. 1t is also limited that Mr.. Cohn,
in case he is not chosen President of the
Council, will be the choice for Chairman
of the Board of Public Works, with Mr..
Kuhrts and H. T. d. Wilson as it's other
members. Mr.. Hanley is also spoken of
for Fire Commissioner, and Mr.. McNally
for Chairman of the Sewer Committee.
Other committees are not much talked
about as yet.
1t was lumored yesterday that Mr.. T.
J. Cuddy was candidate for Superin.
tendent Of Streets, but it has not vet
been announced that he is out of the
field for Chief of Police. Among his
competitors for this place are mentioned
the names Of Judge B. E. Taney, N.
Covarrubias, Chas. Gassen, H. H. Ben
edict, Ed Smith, Henry Russell, J. j.
Hanford and Terence Cooney.
For City Clerk the contest is between
Messrs. Geo. Hermann, P. M. Gaffey,
Judge B. E. Taney and E. F. Kubel, and
there appears to be no choice at present.
So far there are but three candidates IN
the field for the position of Health Of.
ficer, the present incumbent, DR.. Reese,
DR.. E. M. Griffith and DR.. j. M. Harris,
of Boyle Heights. This position is gen.
orally filled upon recommendation of the
Board Of Health, which will not be
formed probably until a week from next
Monday.
The programme for next Monday will
be quite interesting. The present Ccun-
Gil will meet and conclude the business
which is now pending if possible. This
will probably keep the Councilmen busy
until the afternoon, and when the work
is completed the Council will adjourn
sine die. The City Clerk will then call
the new Council to order and call for
nominations for Temporary Chair
man, who who will in all probability
Temporary Chairman has taken his seat,
the nominations for Permanent Chair
man or President will be declared in
order. Then will follow his election, the
election of a Clerk and such other city
officers as may be determined upon.
This business concluded it is probable
that weeks recess will be taken to
allow the Chairman to make up the COM
mittees and the new Council will not be
in readiness for work until week from
Monday.

Chinese cases.

The part which the Chinese play in
American courts of justice has been very
aptly shown during the last week by the
tan-tan cases which have been running
In Judge Cheney's court. A numbel of
Cinnamon were arrested and informed
against on the charge of conducting lot
terry game. They were of course ad-
mitted to bail, and it is very unusual
thing for one Of their race to fail to secure
boDdsmen. Once free it is almost i'm
possible to find them again. They all
look alike, dress alike, and many Of
them have precisely the same names.
In their efforts to recover the parties for
whom they are searching the officers get
no assistance of any sort from the China
men themselves, but are often on the
contrary led off on false trail. The re-
suit is that when the case goes to trial no
one knows that the defendant is the
original who was informed against and
the best possible case will fall to the
ground. A great deal of time is wasted
and money squandered in the effort to
follow out these cases. The entire batch
which have been on trial during the last
week have been thrown over into the
next session when most of them will in
all probability be abandoned.

Metzler, Bowler and Boland have been
busy in trying to gather these individu-
ais into the fold. By last evening they
had seven of them in the City Prison,
