LYING EXTRAORDINARY.

The ordinary fabricator of news
paper cGndrds is an unmitigated nui-
sance. The order Of smartness which
consists in dressing up lie in sensa-
tional colors is low one. 1t bears the
same relation to genuine cleverness that
a stencil does to a perfume. But when
this lying imposition is practiced on an
international scale it is hard to be too
severe on the miscreant who perpetrates
it. Most readers of newspapers were
unaware Of the cause Of the suddenly
belligerent tone of the London Times,
and of the even ferocious utterances OF
other English papers. For the life OF
them they conld not see what had
occurred to precipitate perfect deluge
of war talk. Mr.. Blaine, for Jingo
statesman, and professional twister Of
the tail Of the British lion, had been un-
usually mild. Little Benny in the
white house was not known to have
asserted himself in the premises, and in
foreign matters it is understood that his
cue is to be a diluted edition of Jim
Blaine. Now the cat has been let out oi
the bag. Al the Tuction arose from the
lying telegrams of the Philadelphia cor
respondent OF the London Times, who had
cabled the Thunderer that great fleet
was fitting out at Annapolis to proceed
to Bering sea, with the view of blowing
the British whereabouts to the demni-
ton bow-wows or thereabouts. The
statement of the London Times, on the
strength Of its Philadelphia correspond
ent, was the first the state department
had heard of the matter. Inquiry at
the navy department elected the fact
that there are fewer vessels of the
United States navy in the Bering sea
and its neighborhood than at any time
during the past ten years. And this
was the foundation upon which an in
ternational scare was based that might
have stampeded two great nations into
war. What'would be proper punish
ment for such sacrifice of truth and
trifing with great international ques-
tions? 1t would be hard to say,
for the reason that amongst
all civilized people the stocks and
the whipping post have been abol-
ished! This mendacious correspondent
actually furnished a list of the vessels
and the ornaments, with tally, OF the
men, who and which were to be dis
patched from Annapolis to the Bering
sea. Such particular and painstaking
lying ought certainly to be punished in
some manner.

THE ART EXHIBIT.
Great Success of the Display by the
Ruskin Club. ~

Great success OF the Display by thu
Ruskin Club. n
The ladies of the Ruskin Art clul
have reason to congratulate themselve.
upon the pronounced success of thei
second annual exhibition. Last evenin,
the room in the Potomac block wal
crowded with. visitors who were de-
lighted with the display. 1t has cosi
time and money to get such a ins
collection together, but the result will
richly repay the ladies for their work.
1t has often been remarked that when
ever the ladies of this city undertake
anything it is a success from the start
and the present instance is no exception
to the rule.
There are so many fine things in the
exhibit this year that it is difficult 10
particularize. The handsome catalogue
of the collection divides the work of the
engravers into three periods.
The first period, from 145O to 1850, in
cludes the great names of Albert DureY,
Martin Schongauer, Lucas Van Leyden,
and Marc Antonio Raimondi. who is
called 1.-The Raphael of engraving" The
second period, from 1850 to 1850, in
cludes the names of Agostino Caracci,
whose portrait of Titan, dated 1887, is
so celebrated, Henry Goltzins, ''the
man with the golden beard" and
Stefano Della Bella iss
The third period, extending from 1850
to the present time, includes the most
illustrious names in the art. Robert
Vantenil ls represented in the collection
by his celebrated portrait OF Pompone
de .ellieve, which Charles Sumner pro-
nounced ''the most beautiful engraved
portrait that exists" Antoine Mason
is represented by his masterpiece. Christ
with His Disciples at Emmans. Gerard
Edelinck, whom Longhi calls ''the
Prince of engraver," has his portrait of
PHILIPPE de Chamagne, than which there
is nothing finer in engraving, and his
Moses, which is admired the world over
The brilliant Desnoyers furnishes one
of the handsomest prints in the collec-
ton, known as Napoleon lie Grand. 1t
represents Napoleon with his coronation
robes, and it is said that Desnoyers re-
ceived $4,000 for this plate.
There are two prints by Raphael Mar
CHEN that rank very high in the art, the
Portrait Of Leonardo Da Vinci, and the
Madonna Della Sedia. William Sharp,
the great English engraver, is repre-
sented by The Doctors Of the Church, q
superb impression. Giuseppe Longhi,
who was contemporary with Napoleon,
has three different portraits of the en-
peror, all of them perfect gems. One of
the most noted prints is the portrait OF
Louis XVI. by Charles Clement Bervic.
The exhibition of mezzotints is exceed
ingly fine, but the number of prints in
this department forbid special mention
at this time. One Of the strongest fea-
lures of the exhibit is the large number
OF brilliant etchings shown, and in an
other issue the HERALD may speak of
them more i'll detail. Take It all in all
it is a splendid exhibition, and will be
long remembered in Los Angeles. The
exhibition is open day and evening dur
ing the week.

THE IRoN-JAWED MAN.
He Leaves the Albino Girl on the Cole
World. s5q.

Readers of the HERALD will re mem.
ber Mons. Mrinzo, the man with an
iron jaw. Mons. Mrinzo flashed upon
the unsuspecting public at the dime
museum in boom days. He was a
heavy weight litter, and performed
many tricks usually done by strong
men. At the dime museum at the same
time was young girl who figured as
the albino girl. She was barely 16, and
lived with her parents in this city. The
girl was very modest and quite pretty.
One day the parents of the girl were
astounded to learn that Mrinzo had
eloped with her. They invoked the aid
of the police department, but the
marriage license had already been
secured, and the albino girl was
married to Mrinzo, who was so dark that
many claimed that he was an African.
Word now reaches this city from San
Diego that Mrinzo is in jail. Recently
he hired team at San Diego and started
out into the country where shows never
before ventured. The scheme was not a
success. On the read one II the horses
died. and business was so bad that Mons.
Mrinzo left unpaid board bills all along
the route. Upon his return to San
Diego, livery stable man had him
jailed and the los Angeles albino girl
was thrown upon the mercy Of the cold.

TIE orange interests of Los Angeles

TIE orange interests of Los Angeles
county are of an especially important
character, and everything relating to
their manipulation ought to be very
carefully considered. 1t would be very
easy to do, as far as the present crop is
concerned, an irreparable injury to the
producer. The machinery for handling
an immense interest may not admit OF
being improyised in moment. The
HERALD's idea is that we ought to 60
slow in changing any methods which
have been beneficial in the past. As
Abraham Lincoln wittily said, "it is not
wise to change horses in crossing a
