ELKs EXPRESS SORROW.
Interesting Memorial Exercises mt Their
Hall Yesterday.


Pursuant to a custom which prevails
all over the country at the same time,
Wheeling Lodge of Elks yesterday held
what is known in the order as
n Lodge of Sorrow" 1t con-
sists of various exercises honoring the
memory OF the departed brothers OF the
lodge. The exercises began at ? o'clock
and there was large representation
present. The hall was nearly filled with
people. After singing an ode, prayer
was offered by Rev. w. Ii. Cooke. Then
followed an appropriate and well-ren,,
dered selection by quartette composed
of Mrs. williams, Miss Philips, and
Messrs. Day and Mccoy.
Capt. Z. B. Dovener then delivered
an eloquent eulogy entitled the "Benev-
client Protective Order Of Elks.' After
stating that the Order was started In
New York city in 1867 by number OF
the dramatic profession. Mr.. Dovener
went on to say that the Elks was not a
secret society in the rltualistic sense,
save to the degree necessary Tor
the protection of the membership,
and the sancity of the social
union. After stating the ouJccts
and influence OF the Order, he said
the Wheeling Lodge was organized
June 4th, 1884, and that but one
brother had died during this time,
Samuel A. Miller. He paid high
tribute to his character and his work.
A vocal solo by Mrs. w. l.. Williams
came next, after which Rev w, ii.
Cook delivered a eulogy entitled
"Broken Shaft" This was one OF the
prominent features Of the programme
and was given in an effective manner.
The exercises closed with singing and
the benediction.

Fished From the River.

CHICAGO, March 12.-The body Of
Rowland Leach, a New York drummer
who had been mysteriously missing
several days, was ished out of the river
this afternoon. 1t is supposed he was
either murdered by a tough gang in
whose company he was last seen, or be
ing drunk fell into the river.
A subsequent search of the body re-
vealed the fact that his gold watch and
chain and other personal belongings
were still in his pockets, leading to the
inference that Leach was not robbed and
thrown into the river as at first supposed
but that in an intoxicated condition he
probably fell in,

THE M,CALLA INQUIRY.
The Taking of Testimony by the
Court. VIA rtfaI.

New York, March 1.-THE Court of
Inquiry into the charges against Com
mandsr McCalla opened today at the
navy yard, Admiral Kennedy presi ding.
Executive Officer Ingersoll, Of the Enter
prise, said men on the ship were con-
fined in strait jackets for trifling offsnses.
The charges made against the Captain in
this respect were true. Witness de.
scribed how two men were tied up to
ladder and were left in that position for
four hours. The Commander had di.
rected him to keep the men continually
at work about the ship. Regarding the
assault on Fireman Walker, witness re-
lated substantially what has already
been told in these dispatches. When
cross-examined, he said they had an un-
usual number of men on the Enterprise.
He never knew so much liquor to be
smuggled on board snip as on the En-.
terprise. He described various improve
ments for the comfort of the men which
McCalla introduced when he assumed
command of the ship.
Lieutenant Fichbohm, of the Euter.
prise, confirmed many of Ingersoll's
statements.
+ Lieutenant Charley said there was q
lack of system, rather than Of any par

The Citrus Fair.

The citrus fair, now open at the Pavil-
ion, is model of beHuty and serves as a
splendid demonstration of what the Sec
ton can do in the cultivation of citrus
fruit. Nothing more could be done to
make this index of the adaptsbility of
our soil and climate to this industry
than has been done by the exhibitors,
unless it should bs to pile the Pelion OF
excessive quantity on the great Ossa of
sufficiency gathered under the broad roof
of the great building. 1t would, of course,
be an easy thing to 60 in and pack 5, 10,
or 1000 more carloads into thu building;
they are in the country on every side,
and as fine in all qualities as those on
exhibition. That, we say, is all that
could be done.
Ali varieties of oranges are there and
the specimens are perfect in all respects.
Search the world over and finer oranges
and lemons could not be found in it all.
Tie citrus crop Of this section now
amounts to over 5000 carloads a year,
or about 100000 boxes. These are
worth to the growers approximating
50, 200, 900. The fruit is known in al
most every hamlet in the land, and is
everywhere regarded as of excellent
quality. As foe lemons as the world
produces of home growth are sold on the
streets of Los Angeles daily at about one
cent each. That is the cost to consum-
| ers.
Nor is this industry any longer an ex-
pertinent in this section. A brief sketch
OF the history of orange growing about
Los Angeles will be found in the local
columns of the HERALD today. This
sketch also glances at the only formid-
able difficulty ever encountered by the
growers-she scale bug of several varie-
ties. That pest has been destroyed from
nearly all the groves in the country and
today is foe fallen probably to rise no
more.
The citrus industry is in most pros
porous condition at this time, and large
additions are being made to the acreage
At Pomona in two months $4,000
has been paid f)r lands on which
to plant orange trees. All along
the mesas where oranges do the best,
similar investments are being made for
immediate improvement. Such pur-
chases to be followed by tree planting ia
better than finding money in the street.
Each acre will cost when planted with
budded fruit about $3.50. In five years it
will be paying interest on $4,000 at the
rate of IL per cent, if the trees are
properly cared for.
Sales of improved places are not rare
at $1,000 an acre where the trees have
begun to bear. 1t is not an uncommon
thing for the owners of five acres of
oranges to pocket $500 for the crop.
The orchards will not average that. but
the best of them will yield as large
profit. Any one who will devote his
energies in an intelligent way to an
orchard OF moderate size can reach the
very best results.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1890-03-13
Today,s Election.

Today the votes are to be taken on the
proposition of bonding the city for nearly
$400, 900 to build the interior sewer sys-
tenn. Last August the same question
came up in a somewhat similar shape
and was rejected by large vote. The
question was at that time discussed in
all its phases and the arguments are we'll
remembered by the readers of the HER
AID. 1t is less than six months ago,
and there are few voters here now who
we're not here then.
There is just one new fact to lay before
the electors this morning 1t will be
found in the concrete on the second page
of this issue Of the HERALD, in the
form of map of the proposed
saver system. Last Sunday a very
competent engineer published an exhaus-
tive paper in this journal to show that
the plan for which the bonds are asked
today is needlessly extravagant. The map
gives clear birds eye view of that
phase of the question before the people
today. Note the western intercepting
sewer embraced in the plan for which
the bonds are asked. 1t lies along the
extreme western edge of the city in a
barley field, or along hills of wild clover
and mslva. All the mains emptying
into this traverse districts within the
city boundaries to be sure, but where
there is scarcely corporal's guard of
voters all told. Why build this sewer now
Remember it is an integral part of the
system. The bonds voted today include
| it.
That is pointed out as one of the many
unnecessary and extravagant features
of this plan. The intelligent reader will
| in five minutes see for himself similar
points in the scheme as unnecessary and
as extravagant as this. The men who
propose such scheme of ruinous extrav.
agance at this time are not worthy the
confidence OF this people. From first to
last this case-hardened political ring has
proven utterly oblivious to every claim
the public ought to have upon their con-
sideration, and utterly neglectful of every
public interest.
Now the HERALD presents today to it's
readers the list of polling places in each
precinct in the city. Remember the
polls open at sunrise and close at
O'Clock. Let every intelligent voter do
his duty today, and express his will at
the polls. Do not let this important
question be settled by the votes of the
roisterers and the political strikers. Let
the vote be full and honest expression
of the will of the people. Vote thought
fully, and be sure to vote. The thought
less vote will all be there. The intelli-
gent vote should not remain at home
The matter is too vital to the city. And
remember that to vote the bonds il to
psrpetuate the political ring.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
ST. PAUL, March 12.-The Louisiana
Lottery legislation proposed in the North
Dakota Legislature at Bismarck. received
it's quietus today in both houses. As
anticipated some days ago, second at
tempt to adopt the measure was tried to-
day. Yesterday was set as the day, but
the sudden death of Superintendent of
Public Instruction Mitchell and the con-
sequent adjournment of both houses
postponed action until today, and this
Was the last day the measure could be
taken up and carried, final adjournment
being too near. The first attempt was
made in the Senate. The proposed new
bill offered the State $4,000 for fran
chise and an annual tribute of $780,
900. lis opponents moved to lay it on
the table, but the motion was defeated,
II TO s. However, as test vote itsealed
the fate of the bill, for it developed the
fact that in the Senate, where the meas
ure was considered the strongest, the
two thirds necessary to pass it over the
.
The Lottery bill came before the Sem
ate in connection with the report of the
seed wheat commission, one of whose
members is ex-senator Spencer, repre-
sentative of the Louisiana lottery. The
commission submitted it's report, which
declares that all recent legislation on
seed wheat was constitutional, and sub.
mitted a proposition from George
Ill E.f H..
parties behind him." who, in considera-
ton of certain franchise asked Of the
State, offered to furnish the needy
farmers 100000 bushels of wheat, with
out interest, to be returned after the crop
was harvested, bushel for bushel, and
when the crop failed the debt to be can
celled. The commission expressed the
belief that the acceptance of Spencer Is
proposition was the only possible scheme
by which the needy farmers could be
provided with seed, and recommended
the acceptance thereof.
The certain franchise' referred to
were the lottery powers set forth in the
former lottery bill, amended as men
toned in these dispatches last night.
The report of the commission with the
proposal of relief, from the lottery, was
then taken to the House, where the
motion to lay on the table was carried
| and an adjournment was taken until
evening. At the evening session q
motion was make by Stevens to recon.
slider the vote by which the nov noto-
rious Sandager's bill is indefinitely post
poned, and the previous question being
ordered the motion was lost by vote o
23 yeas to 81 nays. The vote was some
thing of surprise, the opponents of the
measure in the House having underesti
mated their strength, although claiming
enough to win.
In an interview Governor Miller say
arrangements have been almost com
pleted for abundant seed wheat supplies
