Los Angeles herald., 1891-08-21

Now THAT humanitarians are looking
around for an easy mode of death for
the malefactor condemned to capital
punishment, and that there is feeling
that electrocution is attended with more
suffering than the brute who has blud-
geoned his victim to death ought in
their opinion to endure, we would re-
peat the suggestion of a Nevada paper
for the benefit of these soft-hearted
reformers. The suggestion is that the
condemned murderer be dropped into a
mining shaft that is eight or nine hun
dred feet deep. The experience of those
who have fallen to great depths, and
by some miracle escaped with life, is
that all consciousness ceases after
descending four hundred feet. There
fore the malefactor would die an en-
tirely painless death at the bottom of
the shaft, and escape the intensity of
torture one is supposed to endure when
killed by electricity.

WHATEVER else may be said of young
Harry s. New, son Of John New, editor
OF the Indianapolis Journal and Ameri-
can consul at Liverpool, he has the in
stincts of q gentleman. He recently
married Miss Catherine Mclean.
member of the Kate Castleton troupe.
Miss Mclean, is great beauty, belongs
to good family, graduated from a Ca
madam convent, and went on the stage,
for which she had fine qualifications, to
earn her own living. Since the marriage
she has been made the subject of great
deal of comment in the papers. Her
husband, in late interview, said that
he was well aware that his wife had
been an actress before she married him,
and deprecated the sensational para
graphs about her in the newspapers on
that account. He then paid to his wife
the highest compliment man could
pay to woman by saying that in his
eyes she was the most beautiful woman
on earth, and as to her mind, the only
sign of mental weakness she had ever
shown was in having selected him for a
husband. None of the heroes of Frois-
sart could have paid a finer homage to
the lady of their choice than Mr.. New
has done in this well-turned phrase to
the woman he has welded.

THE sensation created in Washington
by Beverly Mosby in shooting at Count
Mitckiewiczs for introducing fellow
named Miller, who turned out to be an
ex-convict, into the Mosby family, nearly
resulting in marriage between Miller
and Beverly's sister, will be likely to
end in showing up the Russian count as
one of the smoothest and most dangerous
rascals that ever got high foothold in
that harvest field for fakes and frauds,
Washington. The father of Beverly, Col.
John S. Mosby, of Confederate cavalry
fame, is familiar figure in Los Angeles,
and is now in San Francisco. He greatly
regrets that his son did not take better
aim when he fred at the Russian count,
and is indignant that this man should
speak of favors he had rendered the
Mosbys and of the many obligations they
were under to him for his good Of
fees. 1t may be believed that the
swearing in Flanders was Sunday school
exercise to the birthstone explosion of
the bluff colonel when he read the Rus
slams cool declaration. He at once de-
nounced Mitckiewiczs as colossal pre-
varicator, says he was always doubtful
of his character, and had, on investiga-
tion, learned that he was in reality an
ex-convict, having served time in Mid
dlesex Jail. London. for robbery. Col
Mosby intimates that the relations sub
sisting bet IN cen Mosby and Miller are
easily guessed at when it is known that
both the men are of the same spotted
character. Assistant Engineer Power,
of the United States government, has
also come out with a strong arraign-
ment of Mitckiewiczs, and shows him to
be simply very smart, able and sue
cessful chevalier-d'industrie, who
swindles all the rich men he can get
into his tolls by methods and devices
that will some day land him in the
penitentiary. ,~

That's What the Old Soldiers
Should Have.
Steamed Potatoes MOnOtOnOus
as Regular Diet.
Why Not Let Fruit Pedlers Sell at
the Home?
A Very Moderate Statement About the
Food Served at the Soldiers
Home-Fruit and vege-
tables Needed.

THE soldiers home disaffection does
not appear to down. The following very
moderate statement from one of the in
mates is apparently worthy of consider
ationl
EDITORS HERALD: "Kicker" does not
advance the cause of the old soldiers at
this home by assailing the personal &C.
centricities OF the governor, but, ON the
contrary, puts the relief they seek
further in the background. Besides,
Colonel Treishel has an honorable war
record, and is entitled to our respect on
that score. whatever may be our opinion
of his capacity to govern an institution
of this kind. He has shown disposi-
ton to be lenient in some cases where it
was misconstrued.
All hands are agreed on these propo-
sitions:
That, with the amount OF money set
apart for the maintenance OF the home,
there should be better living;
That in state that produces 1egeta-
bles in such abundance, and at all times
of the year, and which can be had at
nominal prices, there should be greater
variety on the tables. Steamed potatoes
may do for three or four hundred meals,
but not for regular diet;
That, where fruit is so plentiful as to
become drug on the market. and which
is universally acknowledged to be so
conducive to health, it might appear on
the tables with more frequency. 1
am speaking OF green fruit. The
tables have ''groaned" under its weight
twice in two years; there is an attempt
to keep alive the memory that it grows
somewhere in the shape of dried prunes,
canned peaches, or apricots, doled out
twice a week with an economy that
might be excused if there was not plenty
of money set aside by congress to buy
it with;
That there is room for improvement
in the mode of cooking;
That there should be personal super
vision by an, officer of the home OF the
food as it comes to the tables;
And lastly, but not ieastiy, iruit ped-
lers should be allowed access to the
grounds.
If the government cannot afford to fur
nish fruit when it is 80 abundant and
cheap, and so necessary in sanitary
view, the men should at least be per-
mitted to buy it for themselves on the
best terms possible.
These propositions are 80 plain that
any wayfarer, though a fool, cannot
fail to see their force. Yours truly.

A RETURN OF GOOD TIMES.

Our people need not be backward in
claiming that Los Angeles and the whole
section tributary to our city are well
along on the upward grade to splendid
level of prosperity. For several months
the evidences of improved feeling and
renewed confidence have been apparent
everywhere. At first the movement was
feeble and slow, but it has now attained
a momentum which shows itself III every
business and is beginning to make itself
very sensibly felt in real estate sales
and values. The progress of this ameli-
grafton is not due to any Fictitious or
irregular cause. A very large amount of
money was paid last year to the cultiva-
tors of this section for their fruit crop.
The prices ruled abnormally high, and
the crop was unusually heavy. But lit
tie of this money, however, got into cir
culation. Nearly every one was in debt
and had heavy obligations to lift. The
money went to clear off these obliga-
tions. But this has been another good
year for our fruit-growers, and the
money received for crops has found its
way into circulation, and has given
quite boom to business. In addition
TO the good returns for crops the immi-
grafton of strangers with capital has
been quite large, and sales of acre land
in this and adjoining counties have been
brisk and voluminous. There have been
large accessions to our population from
desirable eastern settlers. A great num-
ber of new fruit farms have been i'm
proved, and every year will add to our
strength as producing section of the
most valuable growths in horticulture.
1t is needless to say that with the pros
perity of the country the city keeps
pace. Values of good city lots are kept
up to fair figures. No one looks for
boom prices. But the demand is excel
lent for property fairly situated for
present or prospective business, and
residence lots in good locations are
saleable at prices which show healthy
real estate market. Next winter will
gee Los Angeles the most active busi-
ness center on the Pacific coast.

THE WILCOX BLOCK.
1t Has a Marrow Escape from De-
struction.

1t Has a Narrow Escape from De-
struction.
The Wilcox block on Spring street had
a narrow escape from destruction by fire
about 5 O'Clock yesterday afternoon.
The second floor is occupied by Mrs. E.
A. Watson as lodging house. A gasoline
stove in the kitchen exploded, and in
few minutes the rear part of the building
was ablaze. The fire department was on
hand promptly, and soon had the
burning building under control. Two
rooms were destroyed by fire, and
the contents in several were spoiled
by the water. The loss of furniture
and damage upstairs will not exceed
$500, and is insured. The damage to the
building will. run from $1,000 to $4,000.
Jevne occupied the store underneath.
Considerable of his stock in the rear end
was damaged by water. He is fully
insured, however. The loss to the stock
is liable to foot up $500. The water
poured down on the spices and flour
principally.

IT rs unfortunate that Governor Camp
BELLS health has become, at this par
ticular time, so broken that he has had
to cancel all his campaign engagements.
The brilliant and triumphant canvass
Mr.. Campbell made two years ago for
the same Office he now holds shows what
loss it will be to the Democratic party
to have him away from the platform
this year. 1t will be great advantage
to Mckinley, and his party will avail
itself of it. The absence of Campbell
from the stump ought to be made up by
sending into Ohio the best speakers Of
the party outside that state.

1t makes you laugh, and the bill says
the City Directory is constructed for
that purpose only, so it can be pro-
nounced success. The performance
last evening at the opera house was
given with all the alertness necessary to
farce comedy, but it was all very like
eating an olive; the first bite gives the
best flavor and produces the most salts
factory result to the palate. So last
night the laughter at the second and
third acts was greatly caused by
the cachinnatory momentum acquired
before the first fall of the curtain. The
men in the company are all clever, far
above the average, and do lot OF novel
business, which is really meritorious.
Luke Schoolcraft furnishes any quantity
of good healthy fun. Mr.. Sweatnam
does not do very much, but what little
OF the performance he provides is above
par. Dan DAILY, Joseph Miron and
Charles Seamon are all responsible for
L. oI,,,, of. oh
heartily enjoyed by the audience.
When one comes to the women there
is not so much to be said. 1t is difficult
to tell one girl from the other on
the programme, as their thinking
parts'' are nil. Miss Maym Kelso
is possibly the young woman
with a very clear cello-like voice, who
sang very acceptably. Her appearance
in a revelatory ballet costume, however,
was somewhat disappointing nature
evidently did not design her to fill
tights. Miss Bessie Cleveland has little
opportunity to use her very sweet voice,
and less to show any other talent. The
Little Fawn," as Miss Glover is styled,
is very clever contortionist, but she
has little conception of the poetry or sem
sorry possibilities of the dance. Apropos
of dancing there is young woman in
the company who does a comic dance
with Mr.. Daily, who displays rare grace
ard produces most pleasant effect by
her skill and ease, though the dance is
simple and not at all suggestive of aero
batism.
The rather premature promptness
with. which all the performers antici-
pate an encore is somewhat reminiscent
OF the variety stage, and is not at all
