CHAPTER Ill.

"You are cruel, cruel, Mr., Warburton.
Why should you make me tell you that |
love you?" sobbed the woman. "What
but pain can ever come from the knowledge
of it?" And the glorious dark eyes and
full ripe lips were raised for moment
pitifully to the face of her companion; but,
alas for her it was triumph, not compass
sion, that she read there.
'But you shall say it, my beauty, with
those sweet lips of yours, though your eyes
have owned it thousand times already;
then | shall feel as though life might even
yet be worth the living" His voice had
hard ring in it, despite its passion, and
the strong hands that rested on her shoul-
ders hurt her; yet there was power in the
man she was helpless to resist,
4 nervous thrill ran through her frame,
and the color came and went in her cheeks.
'Don't, don't make me say it; can
never undo it then" she moaned, but a
smile crept round Warburton's handsome
mouth as he listened
''Now, be a good obedient child, he
said, "and let me hear you just once say

Morning follows night, and night the
weary day, be human sorrow and remorse
never so great, and weeks have passed
away, but Celia has never once granted
audience to Horace Warburton. He
shrugs his shoulders and smiles eynieally
in the intervals of his rouge ct Roir "My
lady viii tire of the sanity role ere long,
Nature put more Venus than Madonna
into those blue veins of hers, and the reac-
tion viii be in my favor, if I'm not mis-
taken" he muses. to himself, and mean
while plays a waiting game. Her relue-
tance keeps him somewhat longer interest
ed than her consent would have done, and
he means to win her yet. Who can say
with certainty whether or not he will
succeedP
Worldly wisdom has no faith in the
power of self sacrifice to save one human
creature; yet, though evil be strong and
humanity weak, through sin and sorrow
and remorse there lies an upward path
which he or she who will may tread,
through it be with bleeding feet.
Be it as it may there is an indeseribable
change in Celia Burrell since that terrible
nights experience; and letting the world
and worldings say their say, charity is fain
to hope that a soul was born to the beauti-
full woman by the anguish of another, and
that Gilbert Burrell neither loved nor dice
/ in vain.

Los ANGELES is one of the great educa-
tional centers of the State, and is rapidly
becoming, one of the leading educational
centers of the American Union. There
are many reasons why this should be 80.
For voice culture the atmosphere here is
- favorable as that of Italy. For the
art of painting, our clear skies and de-
licious atmospheric effects with our grand
mountains and proximity to the sea, make
it quite as attractive. Then there is for
students in all branches. and for children
of all ages and classes the great consider
alton of health. Pupils grow robust
here while doing an amount of mental
labor that elsewhere would absolutely
endanger their lives. 1t is therefore pleas
ant tochronicle the opening of the Glen
dale Seminary under the supervision of
the clergy of the Episcopal Church and
no less to record the inception OF new
girls seminary under the charge of an
order of Catholic Sisters. This is to be on
Pico street near the terminus of the
electric railroad. The land has just been
bought for it, but the building will soon
be erected. Details Of this enterprise may
be found in the local columns of the

INDIANAPOLIS, February 1.-General
Harrison had number OF visitors to-day,
the most notable being Senator, Sabin of
Minnesota. The Minnesota Senator hada
long conference with the President.e elect.
In brief interview he said he was very
sorry Senator Allison had declined the
Treasury, and declared that he, himself,
had simply stopped over few hours to
call on Harrison in social and friendly
way. He had nothing new to commune
cate.
The committee of colored men from
Virginia and Maryland waited On the
President-elect this afternoon in the in
terest of Senator Malone for Cabinet
position. General Harrison gave
the committee a cordial welcome and
spent half an hour in conversation with.
them. They do not claim that the Gen
eral gave them any encouragement that
Malone would be member of the Cab
met.
Politicians are at sea now as regards
Cabinet speculation, Senator Allison's
declination having necessitated the tear
ing down of all the work of construction,
with the exception of Blaine. and begin
ming all over again. In conversation to-
day, General Harrison jocosely remarked
tnat if he could find seven men in Alaska
he believed he should put them in his
Cabinet, as means OF restoring harmony
in the States.
Late tonight it is asserted that the
political signs point more strongly toward
John @. New for a member of the Cabi-
net. Here it is believed that he
would not accept anything but
the Treasury portfolio. Referring to
this gossip, prominent politician
said to correspondent tonight that
Justice Miller, of the Federal Supreme
at an early day. HE is competent"
said this gentleman, "to fill any position
under the Government, and his
nomination as Secretary of the Treas
ury would meet with the approval of
the entire West, and the East could find
no objection to him. 1t is true he is
we'll advanced in years, and would prob
ably break down if he undertook all the
details OF such great office. But that is
not necessary; neither is it imperative
that he should remain in office throughout
the entire term. His appointment, even
though temporary, would serve good
end as, after the House is organized,
some younger man could easily be
substituted" 1t is believed that
this suggestion is among those under
consideration by the President-elect.
General Alger's name, it is believed
has, since the smashing of the slate by
Senator Allison, been permanently
marked off without prejudice to that dis
tinguished gentleman. 1t is believed
Governor Rusk, of Wiscon sin. or some
other soldiers name will be substituted.

PRESS COMM ENT.
What the Great Datlies Thinl
About the Samoan Trouble.

LoNDoN, February 1.-The Standards s
Berlin correspondent says: Germany
does not intend at least to annex Samoa,
but she is resolved that America will not
do 30. At the same time, hear that
Germany will place her SOL
diers on the islands in order to restore
order, but only temporarily"
NEW York, February 1.-The Herald
this morning has this editorial reference
Senator Frye appears to have been right
when he said in the Senate on Thursday !:
1t is not Germany it is not Bismarck it
is nothing but a German trad
ing firm which has absolute
and supreme power in Samoa to-day.
The German consul takes orders from
this company and instructs the German
naval commander accordingly. The
notice Of the German Government to our
own, which became public yesterday af-
ternoon, shows apparently TINT the Ger
man Chancellor does not mean to let the
German trading company go too far.
WASHINGTON, February 1.-The Post

pondence: "The action of Bayard in the
matter is thoroughly commendable. It
will meet with the approval of Congress

Bismarck is also satisfactory, 80 fer
as it relates to the exemption of
American interests from interference.
the immunity of American citizens from
the operations of martial law, and the
recognition by Germany of former
pledges; but there must be no
relenting on the part of the ad-
ministration or Congress with regard to
the previous outrages for which, as yet,
Germany has rendered no account.
There should be ne surrender of single
point on the part of the United States,
nor moments rest under what appears
to be grave affront.
New YORK, February 1.-The Times
will say: This international difficulty,
if it must be dignified by such term,
comes from the officious NEEDING of ad-
venturers in q quarter in whichsthey had
no particular concern and the too ready
adoption of their doings by the Govern
ment.

Our Republican brethren find them
selves,in the approaching municipal cleo
tion, in their usual position, between the
s'short-haired" devil who leads the "bo-
hoys," and the deep blue sea of sump-
tuary regime, led by the ''long-haired"
saints who mix religion and politics. Vote
rs you pray, is the refrain of the one.
Vote as you drink, is that of the other.
They will no more mix than oil and
water. A few months ago the blue-law
prophets had it all their own way, and
spilled all the fat in the fire. This time
the "bohoys" claim they are on top, and
that they intend keeping morality and
the Lord in due subjection. "Morality"
is Clicking like bay steer" against this
programme, and says that as the "bo-
hoys" knitted their ticket, 30 they will do
unto the ticket of the "bohoys." 1t is a
very interesting fight as it stands.

THE TRANSFER OF SAMOA.
The origin al Text of the Document
OFFICIALLY DraMn.

WASHINGTON, February 1.-The papers
relating to the harbor of Pago- -Pago,
which Senator Sherman announced in
the Senate this morning that he had re-
ceived from Secretary Bayard, are of in
terest, in view of the prominence given
at the present time to Samoan affairs.
Secretary Bayard's letter to Sherman is
as follows
Conserving that the question of the
right of the United States at Pago-Pago
harbor, Samoa, is under discussion in
the Senate, enclose, for such use as you
may deem proper, a copy of the deed
of transfer Of that harhor to
the United States in 1878, q
copy OF which was sent to
the Navy Department at the time of its
receipt here. With it are two notes of
Mr.. Coward, who was United States
Commercial Agent at that station, which
are explanatory of the transfer"
The deed referred to was made out on
board the United States Steamer Adams
in the harbor of Pago-Pago, and reads as
follows:
To aUhOm 1t may concern:
Be it known that we, the undersigned,
being duly authorized and empowered
by Taimua and Faipule of the Samoan
Government do hereby, on this fifth day
of August, 1878, transfer to the Govern
ment of the United States the privilege
of using the port of Pago-Pago and the
shores thereof in accordance with the
provisions of treaty of friendship and
commerce concluded at Washington in
the United States of America, between
the United States and Samoa, on the
18th day Of January, 1873" [Signed by
the chiefs.l
A letter from Coward to Assistant Sec
retary Rives, dated January 81, 1889,
says that the four persons signing were
Samoan authorities, in view of the fact
that they were individual owners OF prop.
erty along the shore of the harbor of
Pago-Pago.
Continuing, the letter says: "In my
opinion, this instrument might be re-
garded as transferring to the United
States the title to the land. At the time,
was not authorized or prepared to ac-
cent an absolute sale in fee simple not
knowing how far the United States Gov
ernment desired to proceed in the mat
ter. For that reason, the phraseology
employed was that used in the treaty,
leaving thereby the Interpretation of the
same to the Department. Goat Island
was selected as the place for raising
flag commemorating the event,
in consideration of the fact
that it commanded a view of the whole
harbor, with the intention of indicating
that the United States Government was
not confined in its selection of any par
ticular part of the shore for use as a
coaling station during the period covered
by the language of the treat v, viz, ten
years or more.

GooD citizens of all shades of politics
could not help but note with satisfaction
the police report for January, which ap-
peared yesterday in the press of the city.
The police force is now we'll organized.
Harmony prevails in its head and in all
its members. The Board of Commits
sioners are agreeing in what they want
done, and there is the greatest accord
between the Chief and his men. Los

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1850.

YESTERDAY real estate agent said to
q member of the HERALD's staff: We
shall do better business soon. Money is
more plentiful. We have more than we
can loan, and at rather easier rates. An
other agent said: After the first OF
March money will be great. deal easier
than it is now. There is, to my own
knowledge, 5000, 900 Of Eastern capital to
be placed on the market after that date.
The reason is. that if the mortgage :goes
on before the date named, the lender
pays taxes on it; but if it goes on later
than that he pays no taxes and gets as
much net interest for ten or eleven
months as for full year. But much
of the money here will not be loaned fol
more than six months. Next fall it will
be used to purchase property.

THE development of new and inter-
esting section of the American continent
is a thing that most people watch with
q kindly interest. Every American city
that has ever amounted to anything has
had its ups and downs, from New York
to Chicago. These things are as regular
rs the procession of the equinoxes. Los
Angeles has just passed through her
ordeal. We say passed through it, be-
cause we know whereof we speak. The
period of liquidation has about reached
its ultimate, Eastern capital is pouring in
here in large volume, nearly every
transcontinental railway which has
reached the Missouri river is aiming to
get to Los Angeles, while our production
il increasing at rate never before
chronicled. Within five years from
date, this county will be selling
ten million dollars worth a year
more than she imports; and
the stimulated and energetic era of pro-
duction, which will enable our people to
do this, has already set in on a large
scale. Meanwhile, we are, even now,
resuming that sale of climate, conjoined
with land, which will be a perpetual
festure of this section. Bedrock having
been reached, every sensible man knows
that there is no better investment on the
continent than judicious purchases of real
estate in the American Riviera, where
everybody talks the language of the
country, and where the most remarkable
system of railway ramifcations known
on earth is already an accomplished fact.
and which, Notwithstanding, is to be
greatly enlarged during the next two
years. The paper town vagary having
disappeared, the era Of solid improve
ment and intelligent exploitation has
sst in.

The Los Angeles HERALD has been
ringing the changes on the waste OF
money which it alleges has been going
on through the Encouragement of the
road overseers of the county. The

to sustain the journal in it's conclusion

status, in wealth and population, by
cons, at a later date it moved by CEN
turies; at still more modern period, /,
men learned to measure their progress
by generations, so rapid was the move
ment. Within the past few genera
tions SO accelerated has this progress
become that we counted it's gains by
decades, then BY years, and here, now,
on this Western Coast, we measure the
movement by months. There are ele-
ments in our situation here which will
make our progress the most phenomenal
in history. 1t has been demonstrated in
the past that our attractive forces can
discount those OF any other section of the
earth. These forces may be imperative
for short period owing to the strong
resistive currents at work in the East.
These counter currents are all temporary,
while ours are constant. They will pass
away, and then ours will draw multitudes
here again.
Let US not forget these facts. Califor-
MIA is capable OF supporting 5,OO0,0 900 to
100000, Los Angeles county will not
be full to the extent of her capacity when
a million people camp here. California
will see couple of hundred cities within

SENATOR FRYE,S OPINION.
He Insists That Germany Wants to
Seize on Samoa.

Seize on Samoa.
WASHINGTON, February 1.-Senator
Frye, of Maine, said to an Associated
Press reporter this evening that to-day's
developments in Samoan matters has
not, in his opinion, changed the situation
in any important particular. "The Ger
MANS" he said, "may have abandoned
temporarily their rash methods, but
they have not in the least changed
their purpose; but on the contrary will
go straight forward to the completion of
that purpose, unless some action is taken
by this government to prevent it. The
Germans" said the Senator, "have
made up their minds long ago to take
possession of the Samoan Islands, and
they will not change their policy in
this respect as long as the United States
Government offers no objection. Congress
should instruct the President to make
a demand upon Germany for the rest,ra-
ton of the stains quo. "That demand"
he said, "would undoubtedly be COM
piled with. She cannot afford to ignore
it, for if commercial Intercourse between
the two countries should be interrupted,
Germany would lose more in week
than the possession of Samoa could re-
pay in thousan years"
