A WeIIsprinx of Joy.

A WcllsprtnK of Joy.
To the Editor OF the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
The very kind reception accorded by you
to former paper of mine has emboldened
me to take my pen in hand again.
Consider what q fountain of pleasure the
Old State House has bsen to both parties
through all these years of conflict; to its
friends, as they have contemplated its varied
charms, and pictured to themselves how
lovely 1t would look when put in repair and
made an ornament to our city; TO its foes as
they have reveled by anticipation in the de-
light of removing an enoumbrance, and
thought what beautiful things they could
put in its place.
When the question is decided, the viotors
will be transported with joy, and the van-
quished Qike the sensible men they are) will
transfer their attention and labor to other
worthy objects.
Oh, there is no such wellspring of Joy as
an old State House. It is what no city
should be without. Do not lose patience,
good people, see fair play and keep the fun
going. INDEX.

CHAHLES LAMB.
A study by george William Curtis,

was wondering whether there be still a
tate for the writings of Charles Lamb among
young readers. The question is interesting
because a man is known by his literary COM
panions in the form of books as well as by
the living comrades whom he prefers. A
censor once said of certain person in my
hearing: stHe is fond of the second rate; he
likes the essays of Ella. Now such criti-

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Occasionally something happens to show
that the new South is really "gaining on it."
A grand jury in western Tennessee has found
indictments against one hundred and fifty
persons for Grimes against the election laws.
There has been school book syndicate In
existence for a long time among some of the
chief publishing houses of the country, and
now it is said that nearly the whole business
has been brought into the combination. It
wont do for this combination to try to make
school books much poorer and more costly
than they are.
AS there are already more than enough
railroads in this country, the fact that there
is a decrease in construction is cheering.
The Railroad Gazette says that only 1410
miles of new main line have been laid in the
first months of this year, against 1880 miles
for the same period in 1888. And of this
amount As per cent or nearly one-half has
been constructed in the southern states.
Here is q chance for some Connecticut in
ventor: A prize of $4,000 is offered by the
municipal council of Paris to the inventor of
an electric meter giving entire satisfaction,
and five prizes of $40O each to the Ave in-
ventors whose meters have given the most
satisfaction. Should meter only be suit
able for measuring one kind of current only
half the prize will be given. The city is to
have the right to manufacture for its own
use. free of royalty, any of the meters to

An Indiana man thought he was all right
when he had made an agreement with his
| wife that she should support him, but the
Supreme court of the State depressed hia
spirits by remarking: The law makes 1t the
| duty of the husband not only to support
himself, but his wife and children as we'll
| and we know of no rule of law or public
policy which gives any countenance to ar
attempt by husband to abdioate the duty
which the law casts upon him and impose il
as an obligation upon his wife through the
medium of ordinary oral contract.
It is inconvenient to be Chinaman IL

Vacation May XIII.

Every year the vacation season claims its
quote of victims, says the London Lancet.
Many who have become somewhat enfeebled
by long confinement and, CLOSE attention to the
calls of sedentary occupations rush away for
a short holiday, and endeavor by systematic
over-exertion to make up for the inactivity of
the past month. 1t then shows that the cir
culatory and respiratory symtems work hand
in hand, and that there is great danger, when,
if the heart be weak, the respiration is at the
same time temporarily stopped by exertion.
The Lancet declares that many sudden
deaths are caused each year by the misuse of
the vacation season, and also affirms that the
experience of most city physicians shows
that over-strain is often followed by prolong-
ed illness. We know wise lawyer who new
er did anything the first day of his vacation,
as little as possible the second, took short
walk the third, two short walks the fourth,
and not until the eight day was ready to
climb mountain. By this cautious course,
he grew stronger to the end, and returned
home with vitality enough to work till the
time for the next outing came around.
One can make great change in his habits
without detriment if he takes a long time to
do it, but only young people can risk sud-
den changes, and they sometimes fall victims
to the strain.

whose mother had been spoken to By the
Queen.

the Princess Alice, who was the embodiment
of kindness and sympathy, and yet who
never hesitated to speak the truth, "but it
was certainly thoughtless and unbecoming.
It wouldn't be safe for any of US to be co..
quettish," she added, with smile.
"But was not aware that her Majesty ev-

biously.
The princess's smile deepened into laugh,

my dear; the Queen of England has not one
pair of eyes but fifty and those in the back
of her head are marvels."

Citizens of Los Angeles An Chicago
Rendering Assistance.
The Daily Ne,us, of Chicago, publishes
a brief but very interesting interview
with A. G. Fish, of this city, who is now
at the Exposition, representing this Sec
ton and taking care Of its exhibit. Mr..
Fish declares that very friendly senti-
ment prevails in this State toward
Chicago in its contest for the Worlds
Fair of 1892, and predicts that the vote
of its Representative will be in favor of
the western metropolis. He also takes
occasion to got in some very good words
for Southern California, and explains to
what considerable extent its CONNER
cial interests are connected with those of
Chicago.

CHANGE OF MANAGEMENT.

The Los Angeles Gas Company In
New Hands.
1t was reported on the streets yester.
day that the management of the Los An
geles Gas Company had changed, and
that Mr.. G. H. Simpkins, the President,
had sold out his interest to syndicate
which intended to make many improve.
ments in the plant in very short time.
An investigation proved the correctness
of this rumor and it was found that Mr..
W. B. Klein, of the Pacific Lighting
Company Of San Francisco. had become
the new President of the Los Angeles
Gas Company. The other directors of
the new management are W. n. Van
Dyke, 81. W. Gsrrettson, I. w. He'll
man and L. G. Goodwin, the latter being
Vice-P President, and Mr.. Garrett
son the Consulting Engineer. Mr..
D. Neuhart was elected Secretary
and Treasurer, and as he has
been connected with company for a
long time, his services will be of great
value in the matter of enlargement which
will follow. Very few of the particulars
regarding the transfer could be obtained,
owing to the absence of President Klein
in San Francisco, but when he returns
the intentions of the CONG any will be
made known in full. 1t is surmised that
the pipes will be extended in all direc-
tions, so as to give people residing away
from the center of the city chance to
enjoy the privileges of gas light.

The District Fair.

EDITORS HERALD fully agree with
you that when the Agricultural Fair is
cut in two financial failure is almost sure
to follow. feel An interest in the fu-
ture growth and prosperity of our agri-
cultural productions, and for that reason
1 pen few lines that may be of som Q
value to those financially interested in
our fair, the best and grandest medium
for Los Angeles county displays that can
be had, if properly handled. Missouri
and Illinois today perhaps are the most
successful exhibitors of such fairs in the
United States, Missouri, in particular,
where nearly every county in the State
has an annual fair of three to six days,
then q general wind.up at the great st.
Louis fair, the pride Of that State If not of
the United States. This is accomplished by
the various fairs holding all their exhib-
it's and displays at one time and place
for one entrance fee for each day. If the
Directors of our fair will build
halls upon their grounds, where
all exhibits and tastes can
be satisfied, the difference in attend
ance and interest will be 30 great that
they will be surprised to know where the
money came from to make the necessary
improvements. By consolidation o.
the two present exhibits, you will en-.
large the daily attendance, not night
and the week could be made a holiday

steam, street and cable railways and liv.
ary men by employing their vehicles fol-
transportation; also the various theatere
and shows at night. With this, in turn,
the dry goods and other merchants and
hotels will be benefited, 80 that it will
be to their interest to add premiums in
their various lines, which will lessen the
financial strain on the Directors. Will
the above pay? I answer: Ask the sue
cessful fairs last year, and they will say
yes. JOHN r. MATHEWS.

outfall sewer was wanted or not. Some.
one might want to use the sewage, and
then there would be no need of an out
fall.
Mr.. jackson said that the disposition
of the sewage should be the first ques-
tion. He said that the people south of
the city were willing to take the sewage.
He thought that in few days they
would get together and offer to take the
sewage, asking the city to pay for the
piping to their lands.
Mr.. Hamilton, Of the First ward,
thought that the only system TO be adopted
was one using the smallest pipes
possible.
Mr.. Wells suggested that it would be q
good plan to appoint . committee to
formulate Q plan on which the Joint
Committee was to work. Then the work
could 90 ahead systematically.
Ex-Mayor Toberman wanted to know
whether It was fixed that all the sewers
should empty at the south boundary of
the city. He thought that the citizens
should pay for their own conductors, and
that the sewers should be as small as
possible. He was opposed to the letting
of the sewage for long time. The city
should deodorize it's own sewage, and
then be able to sell the water at three or
four points on the city boundary.
