CAPT. MOODY RESTING WELL,
A. B. Lawson Gives Bail in the Sum
Of Two Thousand Dollars.

Yesterday being legal holiday, no
further action could be taken in the case
against the Lawson brothers, charged
with having assaulted Captain Moody
with intent to murder him on Monday
night last, than of admitting them to
ball. a right to which any defendant is
entitled at any time after his arrest, ex-
cept in cases of murder, when bail can
be refused altogether.
With this end in view the Lawsons
were taken before Justice 2. E. King, in
Justice Lockwood's court, at 10 80
o'clock yesterday morning, where they
were met by their attorney, M. E. G.
Munday, ESQ.,, and with whom they held
a short consultation. Deputy District
Attorney Hardesty appeared for The
prosecution and at his suggestion the
court fixed the amount of bail required
for each of the defendants at $4,000.
Mrs Mary Lawson, who was at her hus-
bands side during the proceedings,
which were naturally of very brief dur
alton, qualified in that amount and
signed bond with Captain p. M. Darcy
as the other surety, thereby securing A.
b. Lawson's release. She also signed
another bond as surety in the same
amount for her brother-in-law. Charles
Lawson, who secured four other parties
in the sum of $500 each, subsequently.
and obtained his release later in the
day.
Captain Moody, the victim of their
assault, still remains an inmate of the
receiving hospital, it being considered
by the attending physician, DR.. II.
B. Wing, inadvisable to move him from
the cot on which he lays, for the present
at least. In response to the queries of
a HERALD reporter, who called to see
him last evening, Captain Moody said
that he felt but slightly indisposed from
his wound, which he had been assured
was not of dangerous nature. He had
slept well and his appetite was but little
impaired. When questioned about the
matter which first caused the rupture
between his former employer, but now
deadly enemy, A. B. Lawson, and him
self, Captain Moody stated that he was
not at liberty to make any detailed eX
planation just at present, as others were
involved, whose permission he preferred
to obtain before mentioning them. He
would, however, do so as soon as possible
after he was able to get about again.
Speaking OF the reports of the affair
which had been published in the papers,
Captain Moody expressed his regret at
a statement made in the HERALD with
regard to j. F. Swift, who was with him
at the time Of the affray. He insisted
that Swift did not run away and leave
him, but merely drew back out of range
when pistols were drawn.

A GOOD IDEA.
The Annual Herald to Go to Eastern
Public Libraries.

Some prominent citizens of Los Ange-
les, who are much pleased with the II
lustrated Annual HERALD, have sug-
gested an idea, which, if carried out
will do much good to Los Angeles and
the whole of Southern California.
Nearly every city of any size in the East
ern States has public library OF read
ing room. 1t is proposed to raise sub
scription to send copy of the Illustra-
ted HERALD to each of those most fire.
quented places. The publishers of the
HERALD will agree to mail copy to the
public library in every leading city and
town in the United States and Canada,
for the cost OF the white pa per in the
annual, with the postage added Every
citizen and business man can invest
small sum in this scheme with the abso-
Lutte certainty that the result will be to
stimulate immigration to this section and
bring about the healthy condition of
affairs which existed ''before the boom. !"
A representative of this paper will call
upon citizens for subscriptions to the
plan as outlined above, and should meet
with liberal response.

access to the water. The cattle were
watered at the ditch twice day.
The water overseer had man to
watch the ditch, whose duty seemed to
be to prevent the cattle from contamin-
ating the water when they came down
to drink. The patrol got on the ground
about Sa. M, and left after the cattle were
placed in the corral, between and . in
the afternoon. 1t struck the committee
that all he was there for was to herd cat
tie, and not to make arrests or prevent
the pollution of the water.
The meter question was discussed at
length and it was shown that the peo-
pie on the hills meant business and
would fight the introduction OF meters.
A resolution was adopted asking Post
master Green to establish branch post
Office in the western part OF the city.

The Admission day exercises held last
night at Hazards pavilion attracted
fully three thousand people to that pop
ular place of entertainment, and a more
appreciative audience than that which
filled the vast auditorium OF that build
ing could not we'll be imagined.
The programme, though OF similar
nature to that provided on Monday
evening, contained many entirely new
features, which were received with
marked appreciation at the hands OF the
spectators. As on the preceding even
ing, the Ninth Regiment band of Po-
mona played a number Of martial airs
throughout the evening in very praise
worthy manner, and its efforts met
with very gratifying reception.
Little Ethel Stewart recited the
"Whistling Regiment" with clarionet
accompaniment, in manner that was
truly astonishing, and in spite OF the
wretched acoustics for which the pavilion
is noted, every word uttered by her
fresh young voice was heard distinctly
all over the building. She and another
remarkably clever child, Eloise Larsen
of San Francisco, subsequently delighted
their audience with piano and castinet
duet, which was enthusiastically re-
ceived.
A novel feature of the evenings
entertainment was the presentation of
the signal code Of the National Guard of
California by two companies of the
signal corps of the First Brigade,
National Guard of California, drawn up
on opposite sides of the stage. Messages
were sgnalled by means of flags, accord
ing to the Morse telegraph code, each
being read aloud on it's completion.
"Liberty's Color Guard" composed
of forty-four young girls, went through a
number OF military manGuvres in ver ry
creditable manner. After their grand
promenade march and flag drill, they
were drawn up in semi-circular line
while Mrs. w. E. Beeson sang the solo
of the patriotic song, ''The Red, White
and Blue in which her magnificent
voice was heard to much better advan-
tage than on the preceding evening,
the chorus being effectively rendered by
the guards.
A realistic tableau representing a
scene from mining camp in the days
of 40 met with hearty reception, the
audience insisting upon the curtain be-
ing lifted again upon the scene.
Little Eloise Larsen, by her recital of
"The Pride of Battery B." evinced an
innate histrionic talent little short of
marvellous, and her audience gave vent
to their appreciation of her clever effort
in unmeasured terms.
The Excelsior Home Guards" under
command Of Capt. w. G. Schneider, Co.
A, N. G. c., were put through the fancy
military drill very effectively, after
which Prof. Bacon's fine tenor voice
was heard in the solo "The Sword of
Bunker Hill," for which he received a
well deserved encore.
About thirty young ladies appropriate
ly costumed represented as many towns
and cities of Southern California in a
striking tableau, entitled Southern Cal
ifornia, with her cities and towns, -
while poem descriptive of their pecu-
liarities was recited by one of their num-
ber.
Owing to a Misunderstanding, the
credit for the leadership of the Column
bias chickens march on Monday evening,
was given yesterday to little Ethel Bald
win, whereas it should have been given
to little Ruby Brown.

ADJUSTMENTS.
w. J. Seaman Scores a Great Success
at the Grand.

at the Grand.
The Grand opera house was filled,
crowded, jammed to the doors and in
aisles, last night, to hear w. J. Scanlan
present Myles Aroon, pretty Irish COM
edy-drama, by Geo. H. Jessop and Hor-
ace Townsend. 1t is specially adapted
to Mr.. Scanlan, and is full OF sweet Irish
songs. And the audience was as dis
tinguished as it was large.
Long before the curtain went up
dozens of people were turned away, the
standing room having become exhausted
at that early hour. Nor was anyone
disappointed who gained admission.
1t would be difficult to say where the
enthusiasm ran at the highest pitch,
in the dress circle or among the
gods. 1t is a drama whose playful,
clean, wholesome and genuine Irish
humor catches all tastes. 1t is refined,
vet so human, that the simplest auditor
catches all the points. The songs in the
play are delightful feature, and Mr..
Scanlan sings them with much pathos
in full rich voice. He was the least
bit afflicted with hoarseness last night,
which marred note here and there.
The cast outside of the star is not par
ticularly strong, but it is well trained in
the. several parts, so that the
performance is even and artistic
all through. "Maggie Farrell, :" "Myles
Aroon's" sweetheart, role taken by
Miss Matte Ferguson, is the most inter
estlng OF the minor parts, and that of
Nellie Glover" taken by little Miss
Constance Wallace, was another. This
young miss did her part very sweetly.
Tonight Mr. Scanlan and COMPANY
will present the same play again.

FARMERS INTERESTS.
Organization and What can be Effected
Thereby,

The farmers of the Cahuenga country
are moving in the right direction for the
furthering OF their own interests. An
organiza ton has been effected known as
The Winter Vegetable association, the
purpose of which is to encourage the
production of peas, tomatoes and similar
crops in the winter season and the
opening of markets for their sale at the
east.
A meeting of this association was held
last Saturday, when the following
directors We're chosen: P, T. Durfy,
Lenard Cole, F. j. Mott, ST., w. S.
Benedict and w. H. Carlin. The direc-
tors elected Mr. Durfy president, and
Mr.. Cole secretary.
Last Wednesday the Cahuenga
Farmers Alliance number was formed
by the election of w. H. Carlin presi-
dent, Mrs. w. S. Benedict vice-presi-
dent, G.. T. Cover secretary, H. A.
Phelps secretary and Nj. w. Wright
chaplain. One of the results of organiza-
ton is the procuring of vegetable seed
for less than half price. The farmers
have been paying 10 cents pound for
seed peas they have made arrangements
to get ton from the east at cents.
Another advantage is that they can get
transportation for much less. As soon
as they effect a strong organization
the transportation companies come to
see them to make terms. Vegetables
shipped by express to San Francisco
have been costing cents pound. The
rate will be reduced by half cent or
one quarter. To the east the rates have
been to cents this will be reduced to
ora cents, lowering ofnearly one half
