THE Republican minority in the
Ways and Means Committee, allow
themselves to be carried away into a
gross misrepresentation of the Mills
tariff bill. These gentlemen state-in
all innocence and candor, no doubt
that the articles on which the tariff
is reduced are OF peculiarly Northern
production, excepting sugar apd rice,
and they complain that these peculiarly
Southern products suffer but slight re-
duction. In the first place, these ante
reform statesmen develop, in this re-
spect, a marked lack of consistency.
They clamor against the removal OF
duty from wool because such action, it
is claimed, will harm our sheep grow
ers. But m ore than this, they ate
what is untrue. Iron and its
manufactures are affected by the
Mills bill, and they are Southern as
well as Northern productions. Salt is
made in the South, and it goes on the
free list, if the Mills bill passes. Other
com modities might be enumerated.

Colonel Hewttt's Residence on
Hill street Kansacked.
The residence of Colonel Hewitt at
305 Hill streetswas entered yesterday
evening by burglars, who ransacked
the house and carried off considerable
booty. The Colonel and his wife were
at the Pavilion witnessing Mr.. Nast's
entertainment, and the house was left
absolutely unprotected. Taking ad-
vantage of this the thief or thieves
entered by the back door and made a
clean sweep of the principal apart
ments, emptying drawers, wardrobes
and all available places on to the floor
in their search for plunder. The fol-
lowing is list of the articles stolen

THE bantling news. bureau which
is trying to compete with the splendid
service furnished by the Associated
Press again illustrates at once its lack
of ofenterprise and judgment by sending
to one of cur contemporaries yesterday
morning detailed account of the ar
rest of Marshal Meade by the Mexican
authorities, while in pursuit of the
Stein Pass train-robbers. The lack of
enterprise was in sending news to the
Los Angeles papers every vord of
which had appeared in the Eastern
press week ago. The lack of iudg-
ment, was in sending details, reiterat-
ing, but adding nothing to, what had
been published in all the papers Of
the coast much more thar a week
ago. No papers outside the Associ-
ated Press service can possibly get
news SO promptly and SO full as the
dispatches sent by that. able bureau.
The HERALD receives this splendid
service in full.

observer of the correctness OF this
statement. The contractor has dug
the foundation to depth OF SIX TO
twelve feet below the ground level.
This excavation is filed with CON-
pact bed of Concrete" that
is, small stones, gravel and ce-
ment, to support the foundation.
This is to be of solid granite masonry,
which will rise to couple OF feet
above the level OF the ground. All
the sills, steps and other like parts OF
the building are to be OF granite.
Some three carloads Of this stone are
received here daily. If any one
imagines we have no building stone
here, he should inspect the blocks be-
ing trimmed for the new court house.
Many of them are twelve feet long,
and two feet in each OF their other di-
mensions. These are, some grey gran
ite, and others brown. Both are ex-
ceedingly compact, OF fine grain and
beautifully marked.
To make the foundations more sub
stantial, near the bottom the trench is
made to widen, so that for the lowest
two feet the concrete" flares out
both ways from the center, thus pre-.
venting any spreading of the material
under pressure of the heavy walls to
go on top.
The body Of Concrete" where the
great central tower is to stand is six
feet deep, and extends over an area
tw snty-six by thirty-six feet: This
tower rises to great height, and
will be very massive.
Our Board of Supervisors are doing
all they can to push along the con-
struction of the building, but prefer
not to press matters to such pitch
that anything will have to be sighted.
The foundations are mostly laid.
Much of the stone is prepared, and q
stage will soon bs reached where the
work of week or two will make a
showing.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Mile Rhea as ssFrou ErOu,, nj

M'lie Rhea as SEfGu ErOu9 nj
the Grand.
In spite of many counter attractions,
an audience fair in size assembled
last night to see Mile Rhea in one OF
her earliest triumphs, Frou Frou.
How much the ladies must have en-
joyed the lovely dresses worn by the
star Such creations could come from
nowhere this side Of Paris. AS the
gay, spoiled, but true and tender hero
inc. Mile Rhea is quite at her best.
Miss Fitz Allen appeared in the hard
ly less exacting role Of "Louise," and
she quite divided the honors with the
star. In the famous quarrel scene
both artistes were at their best.
Tonight Fairy Fingers will be the
attraction. When Mile Rhea will pre-
sent everybody present with a SOU
venir thimple, she to be the recipient
of suitable memento from her many
friends in the city. For Saturday
night PygDaalion and Galateo is to be
the attraction, and tomorrow is the
benefit of the popular Treasurer OF
the house, Mr.. Frank Conant.

FOR LIFE.
CalZada-The Wife Murderer
Sentenced.

Calzada Wife Murderer
Sentenced.
Francisco Calzada, convicted OF the
murder of his wife, was arraigned for
sentence yesterday at 10 A. NJ. before
Judge Cheney.
The Judge in passing sentence
stated that he did not deem it neces-
sary to reprimand the prisoner. He
would have ample time to reflect and
repent OF his crime. Whether the In
finite would pardon he did not pre-
tend to say. AS for the crime, it ap-
peared to be most cowardly one. It
might have been committed in spir-
it of desperation, or Calzada might
have considered he was authorized by
higher law to slay his wife to save
his children from life of shame, but
at all events it was cowardly.
If a man was determined in such q
case to seek vengeance, it should be
taken on the despoiler and not on a
helple woman. The sentence Of The
Court was that Calzada be imprisoned
at San Quentin for the rest OF his Life.

THE conductor who gave the order
for the work train to try to make San
Fernando in the face of the knowl-
edge that the delayed freight train
might be met on the track, is hardly
fit to hold so responsible position on
a railroad. He ought to get "sick, "
"tired," or otherwise incapacitated
from holding such a position.

MIR. McKicrnan,s Benefit.

The new parochial hall of st. Paui's
Church, Olive street, was comfortably
filled last night on the occasion of a
benefit concert rendered to Mr.. A. J.
F. McKiernan. the founder of the St.
aul's Philharmonic Society, by his
many friends and pupils. The con-
cert was on a more prctentious scale
than is usually the case on such oc-
casions, and large and well-selected
programme was thoroughly enjoyed
by all present. The chorus deserves
mention for its rendition of Wagner's
Faithful and True" The next con-
cert OF the st. Paul's Philharmonic
Society will take place the last week
in April, when the "Rose Maiden"
will be performed for the first time in
Los Angeles.

AGAIN On FIRE.
The i.Gs Angeles Furniture Com
paMY:s Store.

About II O'Clock last night fire
was discovered by Officer Mckee to be
in progress in the interior of the Los
Angeles Furniture Company's build
ing on Main street. The building had
just been placed in repair, having
been burned few months since for
the third time, but the new stock was
not yet in place. Those employed in
the store had closed it for the night
at 6 O'Clock, and how the fire could
have started no one knew. 1t started
in the oilcloth room, in the left wing
in the center of the building, but was
luckily discovered before it had made
much headway. Chief of Police
Cuddy was on hand and aided the
Fire Department in discovering the
seat Of the fire, which was quickly ex-
tinguished with the loss of only a
couple hundred of dollars.

Awaiting Identification.

n
Chief Cuddy is anxious to have the
diamonds, jewelry, several silk
handkerchiefs, roll of cloth and a
roll Of silk at present in his hands,
identified. The gold hunting case
watch recovered with the diamonds at
house on Buena Vista street has
been identified by G. H. Ruddock, of
Pasadena, California, and goes to
prove the Chiefs theory, that the
coachman of Col. Banbury, of
Pasadena, who skipped out the day
Thomas, Sheridan and Reddy were
arrested for burglary, was one of the
principal movers of the gang of
thieves that have, for the past year or
so, been working the suburbs of Los
Angeles.

Free Lumber.

Some one has very aptly written
that the Trust is a thing which can
only be defended by criminal law
yer in active practice; and, in follow
ing this logical conclusion the Demo-
cratic press OF California has, almost
in unity, condemned the sway OF the
Lumber Trust of the Pacfie coast.
Occasionally Republican paper, less
handicapped by subserviency than its
fellows OF that ilk, comes to the fore
and denounces the Lumber Trust.
The evil-doing, or rather the evil
effects of the Pacific Lumber Trus,
ara keenly felt in South California. 1t
is hardly questioned or disputed that
the combination of the lumber firms
of the north is the real cause of the
prevailing high price of lumber in the
south. 1t costs no more to-day to put
lumber on the home market than it
did two years ago; yet the price OF
lumber has increased, in the two
years, nearly so per cent. This ad-
vance in the price of lumber has been
attained through the Trust by sys-
tenn not far, if any, removed from
legalized robbery.
The Trust is, therefore, menace
to the prosperity of South Califor-
mia, and a potent factor in retarding
its growth. With lumber at the pres
ent prices building is prevented, towns
checked in their development, immi
grants held from settling, and lands
left uncultivated. Wage-earners have
to pay high rents, because houses
cannot be built except at an extrava-
CANT figure. The raisin and fruit in
dustries have to pay heavy tribute to
the Trust in the advanced cost OF
boxes. The number OF raisin boxes
used is about 1000, 900, orange boxes
$50, 900, fresh fruit boxes over 3,0o0,-
600, and boxes for canned fruits and
vegetables over 100000; total,
5,75O,OOO. These are important
figures when it is taken into consider
alton that the boxes will cost this
year about one-third more than they
did in 1856. Thus the hardship
worked against the leading industries
Of South California is readily seen.
A Republican contemporary has the
grace to say:
Not content with advancing the
prices for lumber to unreasonably
high figures, the lumber combination
is working to reduce the pay of log
gers, against which the latter natural
ly rebel, and if the reduction is per-
sisted in, it may lead to the breaking
up nf the Trust, or at any rate. to q
lower range OF values for lumber. The
Trust is one OF those things that want
all flesh but no bones, perfectly will
ing to distribute the latter with lavish
hands to all persons not in the ring,
and at the same time crying out for
all the prote ction possible to be
secured.
Why not free lumber, as a remedy
for the extortions Of the Trust? It
would break up the power of the un-
holy com bination to certainty. The
removal of the eighteen per cent. ad
calorea duty, which now increases
the price of lumber about $4 thou
sand feet, would Let in the eompeti-
tion of British Columbia, and that
would furnish South California and
the rest of the Pacific Coast with
cheap lumber. The present tariff
does not protect over twenty firms .of
mill owners, and they, through
combination, oppress a vast popula-
tion Of nearly two millions of people
and cripple the industries of the vast
territory which they inhabit.

Hereditary Tradesmen in Japan.

The boys seen in nearly all the plac es
of skilled labor suggest what is the fact,
that apprentices begin to learn their
trades usually much earlier than in our
country, so that when majority is attained
the mastery of the crafts is thorough.
Another striking feature of the japanese
system is that of hercdity. Skill runs in
family lines. Not few of the famous
artisans of the present decade are decend-
ants in the ninth, tenth, and even
twentieth generation, of the founder OF
the establishment. once employed a
carpenter in Fulkui, who was proud OF
his ancestory of wood workers through
twcnty-seven generations; and the temple
records show such Boosting to be true,
though often adoption interrupts the
actual blood line. At a paper makers
establishment in Awotabi, in Echizen, |
dined with the proprietor, whose fathers
first established tse industry millen-
MUM ago, the NATIONAL history showing
also that the Col&ns, before the ninth
century of our era, visitec the place.
