A Double Wreck.

The passenger train from San Fran
sico due at the Wolfskill depot at 7 :25
yesterday morning, did not arrive until
2 :15 P. NJ. The cause of the delay was
in connection with the wreck at MADEIRA,
the particulars regarding which appeared
in yesterdays HERALD. A subsidiary
track had been built around the block
AIDED main line, but when No. 20, the
Pacific overland, attempted to pass over
the new structure the engine and bag
gage-car left the rails, thus leaving both
the main and side lines blocked.
No. IL. had therefore to
wait until passageway was made, and
in spite of every effort to make up time
she was nearly seven hours behind the
schedule on reaching this city.
No particulars as to the name of the
thoroughbred horse killed at MADEIRA can
be found beyond the facts that the ami
NAL was worth $40, 900 and was consigned
to this city. AS the railroad company on
every occasion does not give valuation
OF more than $100 on any horse carried
on freight trains, the owner of the animal
will doubtless be heavy loser.

Room Oh Hill street.
Thomas Sweeting, coachman IN the
employ of Mr.. Thomas G. Barnard, of
1926 South Hill street, died suddenly yes
terday noon. He had been complaining
for several days of trouble with his stom-
ach, but yesterday morning he appeared
to be as we'll as usual and drove the
family to church. When church was
over Mr.. Barnard noticed that Sweeting
was not in waiting with the carriage, and
on reaching home Mr.. Bernard found
that the horses had been put in the
stable. A search was then made for
Sweeting and he was found lying face
downward on his bed in his room. He
had evidently been dead for some time.
From appearances it was judged that he
had sat down on the edge of the bed and
had fallen over sideways, burying his
face in the bed. The Coroner was sum-
moned and took charge of the body.
Sweeting was Canadian by birth and
was well liked by his employer, who said
that he was a steady and well-behaved
young man of about 80 years of age. The
only relative he is known to have in this
city is a cousin, who lives on Elmyra
street,

A Worthy Celebration of the Sec

At the Jefferson-street Park yesterday
the members of the Austrian Society
celebrated their second anniversary in
glorious style. The proceedings COM
menced at O'Clock with song by the
Swiss Society Helvetia Maenner Ohor,
and this was followed by an address by
the president of the organization, in
which he dwelt on the origin of the 30
ciety, the good work it had done, and the
glorious prospects before it. A either
potpourri by the Los Angeles Either
Club, was next on the programme, and
then came song by the Society Helvetia,
and solos and duets, with either accom-
paniments. Dancing wound up the
festivities, which were prolonged to a
late hour, and were thoroughly enjoyed
by all the participants. The officials of
the day, who labored zealously to satisfy
all, and undoubtedly succeeded in doing
so, were as follows:

Let 1t be Done.
Los ANGELES. March 5.

Los ANGELES, March b, 1889.
To the Citizens of Los angeles:
At meeting of the citizens of the West
Side Improvement Association on West
Seventh street last week for the purpose
OF the immediate raising of funds to push
forward Improvements on Westlake
Park, to get ready for and plant trees
and seed lawns during the present win
ter, the following plan was unanimously
adopted:
An assessed contribution of $5 per lot
to be levied and, so far as possible, COL
lected on the following property, it being
considered that all of said property will
be largely benefited by said improve
ments: Beginning on Orange and West
Seventh street at Pearl, thence going west
on either side of said streets and WIDEN
ing out until Pico is reached on the south
and Diamond street on the north, thence
west to the city limits.
The sum of S. on each lot is certainly
small amount compared with the bene-
fits to be derived, and it is to be hoped it
will be universally and heartily responded
to. The city has agreed to put in dollar
for dollar with this citizens fund.
If this call is generally responded to,
it will furnish enough funds to put said
park in condition to furnish a large
amount of enjoyment during the coming
season, and will soon become a delight
ful resort. We are now assured by the
cable authorities that the road will be
running to the Park during the coming
summer. The work of raising funds for
such improvements and pushing forward
the work is not a pleasant task, and no
cold water is needed from anyone, as all
are interested and should each assist by
paying promptly, and also encouraging
others to push it ahead. Of the money
already expended there, about SO 1000 has
been contributed in sums of SIS, $25 and
$50, up to $500 and 5000 each, by parties
most largely interested.
Subscriptions can be made and paid to
s. q. Hubbell, DR.. Bryant, or E. A. For
roster, or their representatives. Con-
tributions from public-spirited parties in
any other part of the city, wishing to as
sist in the development OF this beautiful
resort, will be thankfully received.

Something new, isn't it?" said Mr..
Beaudry, to the disgust of the penciller,

Sports of the Week.

The sale of California trotters in New
York exceeded even the most sanguine
expectations entertained by the horsemen
of the Coast as to its results, and by it,
California, at one bound, assumes the
supremacy as the horse breeding State
par excellence of the Union.
Mr.. l.. j. Rose must be congratulated
on the excellent prices brought by his
colts, and the result is but fitting rec
ompense for a long life spent in the breed
ing and improvement of trotting horses.
1 cannot help thinking that those spec
ulators who, by their heavy investments
on the Bard, have brought him to ridic-
ulously short odds on the San Francisco
books on the Suburban, are reckoning
without their host, as, apart from the fact
that, even if fit and we'll on the day of
the race, it is no sure thing that he can
carry his impost to victory, for there is al
ways present the possibility OF his break
ing down in his preparation.
L fancy the lightweight division will
come near to supplying the winner of the
Suburban handicap, and if had to pick
two horses, whose chances are above the
average, I would take Senator Hearst's
filly Gorgo and the three.year-old Mon
mouth. Monmouth, with only ninety.
three pounds to carry, is, in my opinion,
simply "chucked in" to the handicap, as
he has on several occasions shown fine
turn of speed.
A London correspondent of note, re-
Gently commenting upon the sale of
Ormonde
.'Very possible the Duke sold him on
account of his roaring infirmity, as this
was hereditary, his dam, Lily Agnes,
having developed the same complaint
when she was five years old, though this
is not generally known. Ormonde has
been suffering from an Hines which set
tied in his throat, and though he is now
better, this proves there is weakness in
that part, as the affection commenced in
the bowels and only flew to the throat
afterwards. The price paid is said to be
ELI 1000, and hope he may not transmit
anything but his excellence to his off
spring and leave his infrmity out OF the
contract"
This would indicate that the Duke of
Westminster considered Ormonde's g
'roaring" infrmity as uniting him for
his own stud. 1t certainly must have
been this or some equally strong reason
which could influence that nobleman to
deny place in his stud to the best race
horse England has probably ever known,
and it is one which will be seized upon
by those opposed to "roarers" as the
confirmation by an eminent authority OF
their theory"
Personally I think it very unsound
policy to breed to "roarers."
Messrs. Rodman q Co. hope to open
their new poolrooms on or about the LIST
of next month, and will then afford local
spectators a chance to back their opin-
ions for the big handicap.

Tokens of Regret.

Mr.. H. B. Wilkins is feeling i'm
mensely gratified at the number of let
ters of regret daily received at the Santa
Fe Office on account of his resignation.
The following document from Messrs.
Griffin & Shelley, the fruit shippers, of
Riverside, is indicative of the tenor of
these missives
III. B. Wilkins, Esq:
DEAR SIR-We have learned with sin
cere regret the intelligence of your resig-
nation from your position with the Cali
fornia Southern Railway. We are
speaking as shippers, from purely
selfish standpoint and must say that we
greatly fear both the Santa Fe system,
as we'll as Griffin & Skelley, will feel
your loss severely. You are the only
railway man who ever fully appreciated
the wants of Riverside raisin and orange
shippers, or who ever took the trouble to
give us what we needed. Wishing you
all success and happiness in your new
sphere of operations, wherever it may
be, we remain, yours truly,

Napoleon Ronaparte.

Old Thomas Frazier, who has a large
bee ranch in Laguna Canon. near Santa
Ana, was brought to the County Jail
yesterday to be examined for insanity.
1t has been known for some time that
the old mans brain was disordered, but
he was not regarded as dangerous until a
few days ago, when he undertook to
clean out the town of Santa Ana.
The form of his insanity is the convic-
tion that he is an orator who has been
especially deputed to tell the world
about Napoleon Bonaparte. AS the in
sane cell was not ready for occupancy al
the time, Frazier was put down in the
lower tank, among the vagrants. He

The Episcopal Diocese.

The Episcopal Church in this section
has been making strenuous efforts to
have diocese with Bishop at its head
established in South California. For
this purpose an attempt was made to
have the convention of the church meet
in this city next May. At one time, a
good hope was entertained that this at
least, might succeed. But heaven and
earth were moved by the members of
the church in the North to circumvent
the plans of the southern clergy. 1t
seems as ii the scheme was already de
feated. The HERALD is in receipt of the
following letter written to member of
the commission referred to who resides
near this city:
81 have just been informed by letter
from the north that Bishop Kip has
asked for an assistant, and will surren-
der So 200, or one.third of his salary, for
the salary of the assistant. Isuppose my
informant (who wrote briefly and hast
ily), means that he has announced his
desire to the Standing Committee. l
send you the information as a matter of
news.
1.-The fact is not unexpected, and it will
complicate matters in connection with
the erection of South California into a
separate Diocese. We shall not give in
our efforts, however, tor a moment, and
if we can secure the raising of the endow-
ment fund up to the $4,000 proposed at
first, we shall still hope to carry the mat
ter to successful issue.
"The Convention will now, as matter
of course, be called in San Francisco"
1t is quietus on the plans of diocese
here in all probability, and unless the
assistant Bishop is sent to reside in this
city, the Church will not gain ground as
it ought to do.
In reference to this matter, the follow
ing item of news from reliable source
in the church may be of more or less
general interest:
The Vestry of st. Paul's Parish, San
Diego, have unanimously adopted resolu-
tions to the effect that the use of the
church and the rectory belonging to the
parish be rendered and given to the new
diocese, to be erected in Southern Cali
fornia, as the Bishops Cathedral and
residence, respectively, if he should de-
eide to make San Diego his place of resi-
dence.
While this action is proof of the ear
nestness of San Diegans in the matter,
yet the successful working of the new
diocese will not be advanced by planting
its headquarters so far from the center.

defense in the Levin arson case. Levin,
it will be remembered, occupied the sa-

suspicious circumstances. Levin claims
that he left his establishment at II p. NJ.
