AMUSE MENTS.
tsThe Queens Lace Handkerchief
by the Cartoons.

by the CarletOns.
Last night Mr.. Carleton and his COM
pany produced Strauss charming and
canorous light opera, The Queens Lace
Handkerchief, at the Grand Opera House.
The audience was large and enthusias-
tic gathering of the lovers of music.
1t is needless to analyze this opera, 80
familiar is the plot, hbretto and score to
all playgoers. 1t is as needless to dwell
in detail on the merits of this company,
every member of which is q familiar
figure on the boards of the Grand. The
leading roles in ths east are all rather
exigent affording fine opportunities of
both vocal and histrionic nature. The
ensembles are particularly rich in the
Handkerchief, calling out decidedly
strong work at the hands of the whole
company. The choruses are perhaps the
best part of the opera, 30 sonorous are
they, and so abounding in number. Not
that there are not many delicious songs
for all the leading voices there, too. The
comedy vein is also fine one,
and all its riches were thorough
ly developed by Charlie Drew.
Mr.. Carleton, not content with the fine
solos the score provides him with, did
even more, and favored the audience
with that fine air from Carmen, the song
of the "Torreador." Its tremendous
notes of triumph were finely rendered by
Mr.. Carleton. The audience insisted on
repeat, request which was kindly
complied with.
For tonight, Mynheer Jan is the at
traction.

HEIR TO THE CROWN.
Who Will Step Into the
Shoes of Rudolph.
sIGNOR CRJsPrs PREFERENCE.
For Obvious Reasons, He Does Not
Want the Archduke Karl to
Be the Emperor.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
BERLIN, February 5.-The question OF
the succession to the Austrian throne is
causing increased excitment in official
and diplomatic circles. The papers
quote an article from the Iialia, the off,
cial journal OF Signor Crispi, the italian
Prime Minister, declaring that the Salic
law has been virtually abolished in Aus
tria- Hungary, and that therefore the
Crown Prince Rudolph's daughter is
heir to the throne. 1t is certain that
Crispi does not relish the prospect
of the heir of the Duke of Modena. who
was dispossessed by the uni6cation OF
Italy, becoming the presumptive heir to
the throne of Austria. Furthermore,
both the Archduke Karl and his son
Franz are ultra.catholics, foes of the
house of Savoy, and enemies of Italian
unity, and are ardent allies of the Vati-
can. Apart from these enmities, even
if class interest did not raise
the question of succession, it
would be doubtful if official
opinion here would maintain the right of
the Emperor Francis Joseph. in follow
ing precedent, to declare through an Act
of Succession the Princess Elizabeth heir
to the throne.
Advices from Pesth say the question
already engages the anxious attention of
the Ministers, although no official notifi-
cation respecting the succession will be
made until the end of year.

The City Council has at last fixed the
day for the election under the new char.
tor. The new officials are to be chosen
on the 21st instant, that is only a little
over two weeks away. In the meantim e
the several parties must hold their pri-
naries and their conventions to put
tickets in the field. The fight will be
short. sharp and decisive. 1t is well.
Those manipulating the conventions will
do we'll to make themselves familiar
with the new charter and see that their
nominees are qualified for the Offices
they aspire to. The men put up must have

LAST year there was good deal oi
complaint as to an inadequate supply Of
water in East Los Angeles, in the Sec
ton lying north of Downey avenue and
east of Griffin avenue. The dwellers in
this portion of the pueblo are become
afraid that during the coming summer
they may encounter similar experience.
A petition is being circulated there to be
presented to the Council, praying that
relief be assured. 1t is alleged in this
petition that larger mains are needed on
the principal streets. 1t is hard to keep
abreast Of the times in growing city
like this, and water companies, street
car companies and other corporations
have been taxed to their highest point to
provide facilities commensurate with
the demands of the hour. There are
still three or four months before the
threatened danger is likely to develop as
fact. Doubtless in that time the re-
quired relief will be secured.

INSPECTION OF sTEAMERS.
Some Much-Needed Changes M de In
the system.

the system.
WASHINGTON, February 5.-The Board
of Su upervising Inspectors of Steam Yes
sells concluded its annual session to-day.
IL refused to change the form of the
sample test of steel. The Board, how
ever, to partly meet the wants of the
manufacturers, changed their require
ments in regard to steel plate
TO the extent of reducing it from
As to 40 per cent, reduction
of the area of steel plate "a of an inch
and upward in thickness. The Board
also adopted rule requiring test pieces
from each and every plate of iron or steel
used in the shells or other parts of the
boilers subject to tensile strain. I'M
portant changes were also made in re-
gard to spacing the distance between the
stays OF boilers in fiat surfaces. The board
refused to adopt a proposition to
have tests of the material made at the
works Of manufacturers, where such
plates were to be used in boilers, outside
of local inspection districts, in which the
plate manufacturers are located. A rule
was adopted, requiring that the actual
thickness of the plate in boilers, ten
years old and upward, shall be ascer-
tanned by actual measurements at
each annual inspection, and al
lowing only the steam pressure
from such ascertained thickness
of plate, providing the boilers are other
wise in good condition. A paragraph in
section rule l, requiring the inspectors
to send certificate of the boiler plate to
the supervising inspectors was repealed.
A resolution was adopted advising tow
ing steamers on western rivers to carry
two white lights, one above the other,
three feet apart, and fifteen feet above
the hurricane deck when towing.

On the other Side.

W. A. Wood was brought before
Justice Savage yesterday on complaint
charging him with the empezzlement of
$40. The complaining witness was
Montgomery, Grant & Co., of Santa Ana.
When the matter came on for trial the
representative of the fDm which had
brought the charge appeared and said
that since asking for the filing of the
complaint, they had looked over their
accounts with more care and had dis
covered that Mr.. Wood, who was their
clerk, was innocent of the charge. In
stead of owing them $40, they found that
there was balance of 5000 still due him.
They paid the costs of the case and the
defendant was dismissed.

CURRENT rumor is to the effect that
Governor Waterman will veto the bill
appropriating $3.50, 200 to the London
exhibition, should the bill pass the
Legislature. There are many people
who favor an appropriation for this pur-
pose, but who think the sum demanded
is excessive, will not be needed and will
not be honestly used for the object in
view. Would it not be better to de-
crease the sum to about 100000? In
that shape the Governor would probably
not find any objection to the bill.

In THE construction of the new City
Hall some one has blundered. The
tower is so built that it will not bear its
own weight. The stone is crushing, and
the whole corner is in danger. If prompt
and judicious means are taken it may be
saved. Probably the best way would
be to insert, at proper distances, heavy
iron stringers, between the stone work,
30 as to distribute the pressure.
1t is thought that no more can be safely
added to the tower, but that it must
stand forever in its present unfinished
state. A steel finish might be added
under the directions of good architect.
But who is to blame for this gross blum
der in wasting the city's money in so
bungling and disgraceful manner?

MISS SEARLE'S DEATH,
The Suit Brought for 100000
Damages.


Testimony began yesterday in the case
of McLaud vs. Workman ct al, before
Judge Wade, in department number
three of the Superior Court. The plain
tiff in the case is Mrs. McLaud, the
mother Of Miss Ida Searle, who died of
smallpox at the pest house. in the month
of January, year ago. The defendants
are ex- Mayor Workman and the mem.
bers of the Board of Health which ex-
listed at the time of the young lady's
death. Councilmen Hanley, Collins and
Lowell, and the other mem bers of the
Council at that time.
The complaint charges that on the 4th
day of January, 1888, Miss Ida Searle
was taken away from her home, against
her will and contrary to the wishes of
the plaintiff, and conveyed to the pest
house in an ambulance. The young
lady had been ill for several days with
the smallpox, but appeared to be in q
fair way to recover. On the night in
question rain fell and the wind blew,
and the ambulance was crazy affair
that offered the invalid very little pro-
lection from the weather. The COM
plaint goes on to affirm that the pest
house offered very insufficient facilities
for the care of patients, aud that Miss
Searle's death was in great measure
due to exposure and neglect. The
amount demanded as damages is $780,
600.
The first witness yesterday was Miss
Clara Searle, the sister OF the youg lady
whose death is the cause of the litiga-
ton. She told the story of the removal
of the sick girl by two policemen, and of
her subsequent suffering at the hospital.
She described the room in which she was
kept, small, crowded room, which had
no meaus of being warmed. and the walls
OF which were full of crevices. There
were no vessels of any kind in which
water could be heated. except some old
oyster cans. The witness narrated the
alarming symptoms which preceded the
death OF the patient, which was des-
cribed by the doctors at the time as
important.
The principal witness in the afternoon
was Thomas Brady who served as keeper
and general manager of the pest house at
the time when these events took place.
He drove the wagon when the young
woman was taken from her home and
testified to its bad condition and also to
the disrepair of the pesthouse building,
its poverty of accommodation and the
neglect to which patients were compelled
to submit.
On the cross-examination of Mr.. Brady
several important facts were brought out.
One was that he had been in some kind
OF row with DR.. Hagan, the former
Health Officer of the city, and that he
bad been discharged by the Board OF
Health for alleged drunkenness. The
case will be continued to-day.
