Dockweiler stepped into the breach and
surprised even his many friends by dis
play of histrionic talent, hitherto undis-
covered, in recitation of Shakespeare
Seven Ages OF Man.
One of Mendelssohn's nocturnes was
admirably rendered by Miss O. T. Perci-
val, Mrs. A. H. Jennings and Prof. A.
]. Stamm, and evoked storm of ap-
plause from their delighted auditors.
Another disappointment was in store
for the visitors in the absence of Hon.
w. f. Fitzgerald, who had been ex-
pected, but Judge w. H. Clark was
present and made full amends by deliv-
erng an eloquent address of more than
usual force and eloquence.
Mrs. M. M. lannon's charming voice
was heard to great advantage;in Trotere's
solo, In Old Madrid, and the exercises
were brought to close with Gover's
duet, Heard a Voice, which was very
effectively rendered by Miss Jennie
Winston and Mrs. j. j. Schallert.
In spite of the limited time at their
disposal yesterday, the ladies connected
with the various departments made
marvellous progress in the work of beau
tifying their respective booths, and by
noon today everything will be in full
running order.
The Catholic Knights will attend in a

THE GREAT PARTIZAN
LEADER.
JOHN S. MOSBY VISITS
SANTA MONICA.
He Has an Interesting. Rencounter-He Will
Vote the Democratic Ticket.

Col. John S. Mosby, who has been
sojourning for some daysat the Hollen-
beck, has had very agreeable time.
He announces it to be his purpose to To-
cate in Los Angeles, with whose climate,
social and other attraction, he is greatly
charmed. The colonel is connected with
the law department of the Southern Pa
cifc Railway and he also officates at the
drawings of the Mexican lottery, which
circumstance compels him to 60 to Ell
Paso. Mexico, once month. He looks
upon residence here as great convex
fence, and will be quite apt to make the
change.
Sunday Col. Mosby went to Santa
Monica, and while there he was the CEN
ter of small group which was APP
preached by blue-coated veteran from
the soldiers home, who asked if Mosby
was one of the party. Upon the colonel
being pointed out to the inquirer, the
latter, who proved to be Corporal John
Hodge, was most ELUSIVE in his greet
ings, and thereby hangs tale.
Away back in 1862, after McClellans
repulse before Richmond, Stonewall
Jackson was sent to watch Pope. Mosby
at that time was on the staff of Gen.
Stuart, and was ordered to carry dis
patches to Jackson. He set out, accom-
panied by an orderly, but finally con-
Guided to take the train, sending his
horse forward by his companion. While
sitting in the depot waiting for the
train to start, up rode troop OF federal
cavalry, and the afterwards famous
guerilla chief found himself prisoner.
He was placed in the charge of an Irish
man, with whom the colonel soon got
into an alteration. Hearing high words
between the two, the federal COM
mander, Captain Waters, rode up, re-
buked the Irishman for being insolent to
a prisoner, and placed Mosby in charge
of Corporal John Hodge, the individual
who was so delighted to meet his old
captive on Sunday. Shortly after this
episode Mosby was given separate COM
mand and began the career which made
him famous.
Colonel Mosby, who has been Re-
publican in national politics since 1872,
makes no secret of the fact that he in
tends to resume his connection with the
Democratic party. He voted for Grant
in 1872, and continued to be Republic
can until lately, because he thought it
expedient to range at least portion OF
the south in line with party that had
1t in its power to- do so much for the
good or ill of his section. In local mat
tiers, however, he always acted with the
Democrats. Although he never &C.
copied Office from Grant, having pledged
himself not to do so, he was instru
mental during Grants two administra-
tions in having the carpet-bag Office
holders replaced by good men.
Colonel Mosby was appointed consul
to Hong Kong by President Hayes, and
not, as is generally supposed, by Grant.
He made an efficient and honorable
representative of the United States.
The HERALD is heartily glad to welcome
the colonel back to the Democratic fold.
Pond and Del Vale and the rest of the
Democratic state ticket will have one
staunch vote that was not counted on.

FOR THE ORPHANS.
The Brilliant Opening of the Fair For
the Little Ones.

No more worthy object could possibly
present itself to the charitably disposed
than the orphans fair, which was for
mally opened at the new Armory hall on
Broadway last night. 1t derives it's
name from the fact that its sole aim and
purpose is that of raising funds where
with the Sisters of Charity, to whose
good work in this city thousands can
bear witness. may defray the expenses
entailed by the erection of their new
orphanage on Boyle Heights, which
work was necessitated by the over
crowded condition OF their Macy street
asylum.
The construction of the new asylum
has SO far progressed that the building
is now being rooted. 1t was confidently
expected that while it was being built
the old place could be sold, and sufficient
realized from its sale as to tide the
Sisters over any financial embarrass-
ment. Some time ago the old asylum
property was bonded for considerable
sum, but the sale was not consummated,
and now the Sisters owe (besides the
long-existing debt incurred in the Ala
media street asylum) a new and large
debt contracted in erecting the new
building on Boyle Heights. It is for the
purpose OF raising this amount that the
fair is now being held, and it appeals to
all alike, regardless of creed.
The fair opened last night under most
favorable auspices, the attendance being
very large and fashionable, and the
programme arranged for the entertain
ment of the visitors being one OF high
er order than is usually the case on such
occasions.
The proceedings commenced shortly
after o'clock, when Mr.. Andrew Null
len, chairman on the committee on ar
rangements, made an Introductory
speech, setting forth the object of the
fair. He was followed by Mayor Haz-
ard, who, in one of his characteristic
speeches, appealed to each and all pres
ent to aid the cause of the orphans.
A septette consisting of Messrs. G. S.
Walton, G. ]. Ellis, J. j. Heyes, f.
A. Walton, ]. J. Schallert, w. Boriwell
and I. Wiesendanger then sang Reich
ardt's beautiful Image OF the Rose, IN a
mastery manner, and were called upon
to respond to we'll deserved encore.
Hon. Il. f. Del Vale kindly consented
to fill the vacancy on the programme
made by the unavoidable absence Of
Hon. S. M. White, and delivered an elo-
quent address ON behalf of the mother
less and fatherless, for whose benefit
the fair was being held.
A vocal solo. Morning, was charm
ingly rendered by the popular Miss
Jennie Winston, who was recalled to
the platform at its close.
The announcement that Mrs. J. d.
Lynch was unable to appear, was keen

is STANFORD A SACRED PsRsoNAoz,

There are few more amusing spectacles
than that of Hon. Morris M. Estee
coming to the front in the attitude of a
defender of Stanford from the attacks of
Hon. Stephen M. White. The most
melancholy sacrifice ever made in the
political annals of California was that of
Estee by the railway people in 1882.
He was not only slaughtered in the
house OF his friends, but the thing was
made so memorable as to serve for a
landmark. A great deal of nonsense is
being spoken and written concerning
Mr.. Whites arraignment OF California's
senior senator. That gentleman is
seeking reelection to Office; and his
principal Democratic opponent, Mr..
White, has perfect right to give public
expression to facts that are notorious.
Mr.. Pixley and Mr.. Estee may choose
to ignore the peculiar methods by which
Aaron A. Sargent was knocked out, but
it does not follow that all the world and
the rest of mankind should do so.
Agreat point is made against Mr.. White
because he, for a short time, occupied
the position OF attorney for the Southern
Pacific railway. 1t is to be assumed
that he was engaged in that capacity
because his services were valuable to a
corporation that always aims to secure
trained ability, or otherwise the pre-
sumption is violent that they would not
hoxyo hoov, -, Sc
toned fact that Mr.. White voluntarily
relinquished the position to attend to
his pressing private and lucrative prac-
tice. In that regard honors are easy.
If he had been dismissed from the SER
vice of the company, his unsparing
arraignment of Stanford might then
have been referred to private pique.
But to accuse public man of demagogy
and ingratitude for doing his best to ar
rest crying public evil is carrying
personal servility to an extent which
will excite the disgust of the discerning.
In Pixley, the tendency to elevate Gov
ernor Stanford into sort of a demigod
is probably congenital. 1t is bred in
the bone and cannot well avoid cropping
out in the flesh. But in Estee it is an
artificial and laboriously cultivated warp
of truth and nature, stultifying to him
self and surprising to his friends. If
one of this gentleman's speeches, made
in the fervor of his anti-railway cam
paign of 1882, were republished it would
make interesting reading.
The people can stand a certain amount
of humbug; but not all of Stanford's
wealth nor all his public spirit-for the
HERALD freely comedies that the senior
senator has done some noble things
can blind the people of California to the
fact that White, or any other man, has
right to tell the truth concerning cleo
ton methods that ought to be repro
bated
Los Angeles herald., 1890-10-14

A TELEGRAM from President Marvel
of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe
road, to Mr.. Dan. Freeman, says that
the second car of the Southern Cali
fornia exhibit, arrived in Chicago with
everything in perfect order, and that the
formal opening in the Rialto building
will take place today. This is gratifying
news. This is the beginning of the
greatest of our booms, which will be
founded on actual production of the
most manifold and remunerative staples
which are gathered,on the footstool.
Los Angeles herald., 1890-10-14

THERE appeared in yesterdays Times 6
sweeping arraignment of the school
board of this city, charging that teachers
did not get positions on their merits az
educators, but by ways that are darl
and tricks that are vain" The writer
tries to make close connection, on s
financial basis, between the appointing
powers and the teachers bureau that
has been for some time doing business
on Spring street. But the manager oil
that concern declares that during its ex-
istence there has been only one teacher
who gotinto the city schools through its
aid, and that one was passed en-
tirely on the merits of her credentials.
The most serious part of the article,
however, is paragraph in which one of
the principals is limited at as having got
her place through favoritism, and as
having left her former place OF residence
under discreditable conditions. AS the
lady's name was given, she naturally
felt very indignant, and submitted to
the Times documentary evidence of her
good standing in her former home. 1t
seems that this whole sensation has it's
genesis in the failure of certain lady
to secure position in the schools. The
article was written by r. II. T. Variel,
a lawyer. The board OF education
has taken the matter in hand, and
promises to make thorough investiga-
ton. 1t is not at all probable that a
scheme to place teachers in our schools
in consideration Of percentage OF their
salaries could be practically carried out.
Such plan placed in execution would
soon defeat itself, even ii teachers could
be found so devoid of principle as to
enter into a contract so degrading.
There may be a small amount OF
favoritism in some of the school
appointments. 1t could hardly be
otherwise; but that there is a
wholesale money traffic in teach
ers' positions is not to be believed
for moment. The teachers of this city
stand very high in the estimation of the
community. As class they have been
free from scandal of any kind. The
people are proud Of them and their
work, and it will take something more
definite and credible than the innuen-
does of an anonymous writer to induce
anyone to believe that they would SUBJ
NIT to official extortion to either obtain
or maintain their places.
In another column appears a COM
munication, in which the percentage
method is said to obtain in the selection
of country school teachers. The county
superintendent is apparently made to
work in harmony with this Spring street
teachers bureau. We can conceive how
such bureau carried ON legitimately
could become useful to the trustees OF
the country districts. But if it is in
close connection with the county super
intendent, and that official uses his
office to compel applicants to seek and
get positions through it, that is an en-
tirely different affair. We shall look
for more light upon this very interesting
subject.

WE trust that that 81 900 reward for
the production OF Markham's letter
commencing the discharge of Irishmen
from his mines and their replacement
by Cinnamon, will be forthcoming when
called for, which will be soon, or we are
misinformed. The letter was written,
its existence was admitted by Markham
in suit at law; and, what is more, it is
now in this state, and will be produced
very shortly. That thousand dollars
has as much chance of Undertaking..
however, as the Republicans have OF
carrying this state. To employ the
elegiac language OF the Times, ''look a
