Ordinary Interest.

At the last meeting of the Board o
Education a communication was reat
from the Bricklayers' Internationa
Union calling it's attention to the fac
that several of the contractors engaged
in the erection of the new school build
ings we're infringing on the terms O
their contract with the city by exactinl
from their men more than eight hours
labor for days work. The matter was
referred to the building committee of the
board, but this action did not, apparently
meet with the requirements of the union
for yesterday two complaints were fled
in the Police Court against J. G. Kubach
who is the contractor for the school
building on Second and Collado streets,
and M. Anslen, who is building
the schoolhouse on the corner
of Cornwall and City View streets.
Both men were arrested and taken be-
fore Justice Austin yesterday afternoon,
and the former was arraigned upon the
charge of having on the 10Th inst. re-
quired the services of Peter Suter for
more than eight hours, to-wit: nine
hours for one days work, and as he was
not ready to plead, he was allowed until
l 80 O'Clock tomorrow afternoon ir
which to do 80.
Anslen, who is charged with having
exscted nine hours work from J. Shaw
on the same date, was released upon de
posting $50 bail until 80 this after
noon, at which time he was ordered t.
appear for arraignment.
The complaints are sworn to by J. D
Bailey and 7. E. Cross respectively, ant
are brought under the eight-hour law.

AT the Los Angeles.

Last night the Mendelssohn Quintette
Club, Of Boston, gave concert at the
Los Angeles theater. This combina.
tion, at least the name, has been here
twice before. Mr.. Ryan's personality
clings to the name, but the others
change. One OF the violinists last night
was Mr.. Halbercorn, Margaret Mather's
husband. ~
The programme was as follows:
Quintette in F, (Frsnz Ries9; "Grand
Scene," (Carl Maria Won Weber, Miss
Elizabeth Hamlin solos for violoncello,
adagio (Hofmsn), "Spanish Dance"
"copper" Mr.. Max Droge; adsgio from
the qdartette in d minor, (schuberi)
"Gnomen Klaenge," solo for clarinette,
(Baermsnn) Mr.. Thomas Ryan fantaisie
for violin. Souvenir de Moscow"
(Wieniawski) Mr.. Wilhelm Ohliger !;
song, "She Wandered Down the
Mountain Side," IF. Clay) Miss Eliza
beth Hamlin; fantaisie for flute (Dsm-
mersemann) Mr. Paul Henneberg;
rondo finale from the quintette in E fat,
(Mayseder) m
The club has high reputation in their
art, but the selections given were not
satisfactory to many of the musical peo-
pie in the audience, which. although not
large, was very select and contained q
great many musical people. The in
strumentation was excellent, and Miss
Hamlin's voice gave great satisfaction.
Her method Is good, and her voice clear,
full and resonant, not lacking in feeling
either. s
The Hyers sisters and their company
of colored comedians will begin their
engagement of three nights and Saturday
matinee tonight. They produce COM
edy-drama entitled Out of Bondage; or
Before and After the Var. A more inter-
esting and attractive combination than
that of the Hyers sisters is not travelling
today, and they offsr an evening of fun,
music and pathos which combines all the
elements of an entertainment at once
refined and jovial. The comic elements
of the combination are genuine humor.
No stretched. strained effort after fun,
but that rollicking joyousness which bub-
bles over in the darkey nature.
On Sunday evening, at this theater,
the Elks will take their benefit, on
which occasion the Grismer- Davies COM
pany will appear in the four.act drama
entitled Forgiven, after which there will
be an olio by host OF professional tai
eut. The Elk lodge here has done a
great deal of good to the sick and needy
among their brethren, and all Who are in
sympathy with them should purchase
tickets, as they deserve a crowded
house.

The Handbill Ordinance

Some of the business men who are in
the habit of doing great deal of hand
bill advertising do not relish the recent
ordinance relating to that class of mat
ter. Several of them were busy circu-
lating the following petition yesterday,
and already they have secured many
signatures:
To the Honorable, the City Council of Los
angeles:
We, the undersigned, petition for the
repeal of an ordinance, passed by your
honorable body at it's last meeting, pro-
hibiting the passing and distribution of
handbills or dodgers on the streets. We
would respectfully suggest that business
is dull enough without cutting off one of
our legitimate modes of increasing trade.

A Broken RIB,

About O'Clock yesterday afternoon R,
M. Thomas, contractor and plasterer,
was driving down Marchessault street tc
Alameda in light spring wagon, loaded
with barrels of lime, when locomotive
of the Southern Pacific Railroad Com.
pany came down the track. The horse
attached to Thomas's vehicle took
fright at the. escaping steam, and
after rearing up few times,
plunged violently forward, tearing the
single tree from the shafts and
breaking the light harness. Thomas,
who still retained his grip on the lines,
was dragged oyer the dashboard and
Los Angeles daily herald., 1890-02-20

along the roadway for nearly half q
block before the animal was stopped by
Officer T. Roberts. On being picked up
Thomas was suffering from pains in the
left side, and he was conveyed to the
police station in the patrol wagon for
medical treatment. DR.. MCGOWAN was
summoned and it was found on exam
ination that one of the old mans ribs
was fractured. After being treated by
the physician, Thomas returned to his
home, at No. 601 Downey avenue, East
Los Angeles.

MEXICAN GRANTS.
A Bfn;to Reimburse Grantees for Lands
Deprived of by Erroneous Surveys.

Bin,to Reimburse Grantees for Lands
Deprived of by Erroneous Surveys.
WASHINGTON, September I'd The Senate
Committee on Private Land Claims,
through Mr.. Colquit, has made an elabor-
ate report on the bill to reimburse the
grantees, their legal representatives and the
assigns of the Punta de Laguna Mexican
land grant, in California, for lands of
which they were deprived by an erroneous
survey made by officers of the United
States-a grant for six Spanish square
leagues, or 70 4S ~ acres of land-lo be
selected within certain specified boundaries.
The claim was presented TO the United
States General Land Office and confirmed
February 8, 1857. Immediately west of
the grant the prior grant had been made
known as the Guadalupe Rancho. which
was also confirmed in due form. A patent
was issued to Gusdaloupe on June 80, 1866,
which the owners refused to accept, on the
ground that it did not contain all of the
lard to which they were entitled.
A new survey of the Guadalupe Rancho
in the following February included 5000 80
acres. most of that first provided. This
land was taken from the Lsguna survey
land The Secretary of the Interior de-
cliped to accept this survey, and Guada-
louie brought suit against LaguDa and re-
covered the disputed land.
Il the meantime the Government had
sold to settlers nearly all of the land within
the exterior limits of the Lsguna grant
and not included in the Laguna survey.
The matter has been in controversy for
many years, the Laguna people claiming
that they were entitled to six Spanish
square leagues and that they have received
5000 90 acres less than that amount.
TAe committee recommends that after
the rights OF interested parties have been
der. rmined hv the Secretary of the Tote.
rior. they be sll9wed TO select lands in the
Stae Of Cslifornis. not mineral and not
ress rved, ia ousnsities equal to the amount
OF which they were deprived by the erro

VERMONT ELECTION.
The Republicans Garry the State by a
Decreased Majority.

WHITE RIVER JUNCTION (Vt.). September
2d.-This State to-day voted for State Off
GERS, two Representatives to Congress aud
full list of State Senators and Representa-
tives. Twenty cities and towns. including
Burlington, give Page (Rep.) for Governor
3,5l1, Bingham (Dem.) 2,041, Allen (Pro.)
lis. In 1888 these towns gave Eddingham
(Rep.) 1886. Purtliff (Dem) 24S9, all
others ITO. The returns thus far received
indicate not only that the Republican vote is
very light, bnt that the ticket has been cut.
The decrease in the Democratic vote is not
nearly as large correspoEdingly, this year
as that of the Republicans. The Prohibi-
ton vote remains about the same thus far.
One hundred and thirty-fve towns give
Page (Rep) 22,543, Brigham DEM 13, 262,
Allen (Prohibition) 500 In these
towns the Republican vote has fallen off
s, 1896. The Democrats have gained AL.
while the Prohibition vote has fallen off
but little. If the vote of the remaining
towns is relatively the same as those beard
from, the Republican majority will be only
about $4,000 in the whole State. There
were only Is Democrats in the Assembly in
1883. Thirty.seven have been elected in
135 towns already heard from. and two
Farmers League candidates. An unex-
pectedly large number of high-iicense Re-
publicans have been elected.

A Letter from an Eminent Physician.


Mn. EDIToE: At the risk of indorsing o
proprietary preparation, 1 have a few words
in favor of new laxative principle But
first, how / came to discover II. A patient
asked about taking Joys Vegetable sarsa-
parilla. As sarsaparillas usually contain
mercury OF iodIdes 1 objected, and asked for
the formula, which finding purely vegetable,
and SO mild as 10 be to my mind almost
iuert, consented. Imagine my astonish-
ment when perfect laxative action was re-
ported. 1t has two great points. First, being
purely vegetable, it is (unlike mercury not
cumulative in the system, being easily car
ried of by the digestive processes: and second,
It is effective with less quantity of the
cathartic principle than has hitherto been
attainable. It in this respect ranks as .
discovery. and approaches the ideal, viz:
the least medicine consistent with the grcat~
est good. 1t harmonizes natural laxative
action and perfect safety, and should inter-
est both the public and the profession.

THE CARPENTERS STRIKE.
Two Thousand Return to Work-Fou
Thousand Still Out.

Two Thousand Return to Work-Four
Thousand Still Out.
CHICAGO, September ID. = The great
strike of journeymen carpenters opened
this morning. At neither the headquar-
tiers of the journeymen nor the bosses was
it known to what extent the order to quit
work would be obeyed.
1t is estimated that about six thousand
carpenters were idle this morning. Oi
these four hundred struck to-day, and two
thousand were already out of work through
the bosses closing up jobs in anticipation
of strike. Practically all the union men
are out.
The Carpenters Council this evening de-
cided that all union men in the empty oi
bosses paying 81 cents per hour, and allow
eight hours day, should at once return to
work, and President O'Connell tonight
said that over two thousand went to work
under this decision.
