THE marked falling off in the audi
ences attending the performance OF Lord
Fauntleroy shows that the public soon
tire of pieces that invade the nursery.
Precocious infants soon pail on the pub
lie taste. They may be tolerated and
even admired for brief-very brief
season, but when they are forced for
ward as regular thing, theater-going
people will say with Hamlet, Something
too much of this.'' There is a mere
tricious tendency among modern play
wrigbts to insert parts for precocious
Juveniles. And yet, every seasoned
theatre-goer is i'll at ease when they
occupy the stage. There is feeling
that it is not the proper place for child
that their prattle, however interest
ing at the home and in the family circle,
is not the pabulum upon which grown
people want to feed. The tendency to
put forward children in public is not
confined to the stage. Parents, too,
often make the mistake of showing off
their little ones in public exhibitions.
The evil Of this is that it implants a
false idea of smartness in the child, and

PRESIDENT CoLLIs P. HUNTINGTON, ot
the Southern Pacific railway, has lately
issued an order which will be of great
benefit to Los Angeles, and which can
not fail to please our merchants. He
Las directed that hereafter all supplies
required for the railway south of Mojave
shall be bought in this city. The pur-
chasing agent of the company, Mr.. R.
Stevenson, will in the future divide his
time between Los Angeles and San
Francisco. We learn from an authori-
tative source that this new regulation
means the disbursement of between
$400, 900 and $500, 900 yearly in this city.
This is marked sign of the growth of
very friendly spirit towards Los An
geles in Southern Pacific circles.

THE sources of wealth that now lie
neglected are very numerous in South
ern California. Take, for instance, the
contemptuous way in which the stones
of the apricots, peaches and cherries,
which are canned or dried, are allowed
to go to waste. In Europe they would
be worked up into Kirsch-wasser, high
priced cordial which is held in high es-
timation, and which is imported into
this country in considerable quantities.
The day is not distant when we will be
converted into staple of great CONNER
cial value.

Ex-MAYoR WORKMAN has offered to
deed tract OF land to the city at Boyle
Heights for a public park. This offer
includes the free use of his cement res
ervoir and the six-inch pipe leading to
the tract. The tract is 360x500 feet.
The city should not hesitate to accept
any gift of this kind. The more parks
we have, large and small, the better it
will be for our city hereafter. Sagacious
foresight in growing cities in reserving
large tracts for public parks avoids the
expenditure of immense sums after
wards for these indispensable convent
ences when real estate has risen to great
value. The people of Chicago have been
very far-sighted in this respect, and the
result is that some of the finest and most
extensive parks in the country are to be
found in that city.

THE recent constituting OF Redondo as
port of entry with resident deputy
collector is a deserved recognition Of that
rapidly growing place. 1t does today a
business which places it in the front
rank of Pacific coast ports outside of San
Francisco, and at the rate at which her
imports have swollen Redondo will soon
discount San Diego in the amount OF ton
mage handled. The new traffic arrange
ment with the Southern Pacific, which
is evidenced by the Y which has lately
been put in at the junction of the tracks
OF the Southern Pacific and Redondo
railways, out near jefferson street and
Grand avenue, shows that the large bus
iness heretofore done at Redondo is
about to be largely increased through the
cooperation of the former corporation.
With two railways, the Santa Fe and
Redondo narrow gauge, this new and
ambitious port may be excused for put
ting on airs. In ratio of growth it dis
counts anything ever known on the
southern coast, and it bids fair to main
tain the impetus with which it started.

FREE METHODISTS.
The Close of Their First Confer

ence.
Sabbath, the closing day of the Free
Methodist conference, at their church
on Fifth and Wall streets, was great
day amongst them.
The love feast was an old-time one.
The church was packed to listen to a
mastery sermon by General Superin-
tendent B. 7. Roberts, on the theme
The Character and Composition
of the Church of God. Clear
ness, simplicity and pungency char
acterized the discourse. At the close of
the sermon Rev. G. B. Ebey, the pastor
of the church, presented the matter of
the remaining Indebtedness upon the
church. 1t a few moments it was paid
in and subscribed, and Rev. Mr.. Roberts
offered the dedicatory PRAYER. The
chapel is model of neatness and sim
plicity, capable of seating about two
hundred people.
In the afternoon at 2:30 Rev. j. A.
Wood, of the National holiness associa-
ton, preached very clear discourse on
the subject of Perfect Love. AT the close
of this service, General superintendent
b. L. Roberts set apart to the Office of
deacons J. S. Nickle, Frank X. Dubois,
A. B. Phillips and E. G. Shipley.
AT 7:30 O'Clock Mr.. Roberts again
preached to crowded house on the Ne
cessity of Radical Work in Religion.
The altar was crowded with seekers.
Seven persons united with the church
during the services. The church here
has been greatly encouraged by these
services, and the new pastor, Rev. Thos.
Fluck, enters upon his pastorate hope
full OF successful year.

Scheme.

ne MAYOR hnoCkS Out NICE Lirtle
Scheme.
& Mayor Hazard has refused his ap-
proval to the demand for salary by the
commissioners in the matter of opening
Sixth street, the opening having failed
and there being no chance to pay them
out Of the assessments. In his message
on the subject the mayor says that the
claim of the commissioners looks all
right on the face of it, but that the
amount charged, 5000 for three men, is
exorbitant, and that $50 would be
amply sufficient. He goes into the de-
tails of possible abuses permitted by the
system OF allowing the commissioners to
fix their own salaries, and suggests that
the council fix the amount to be paid
before any more commissioners are ap-
pointed.

The Anoka Union is constantly harp
ing upon the belief that Merriam is
after G. X. Davis seat in the United
States senate, and that he stands ready
to use any means to attain his end.
Well, supposing such to be case, what
is the use of wasting breath on the SUBJ
ject? If Merriam wants to be senator,
not all the talk of all the editors will
prevent him from doing his leyel best
to get the votes of our Legislators. He
has as much right to be a candidate as
any booy, and if the Union is afraid of
Doodle, the proper thing for it to do is
to caution its constituents in the selec.
ton of their representative two years
from now. To accuse Merriam of be-
ing able with money to elect himself
United States Senator is to accuse the
people beforehand of willingness to
elect legislators who can be bought.

products of the United States which in
cludes all our breadstuffs, salt pork,
salt fish, cotton seed oil, coal, tar pro.
ducts, all kinds Of agricultural and
mining implements, all manufacturing
machinery, and railway material of
every sort. 1t is a splendid opening
for our foreign commerce. After the
same date Brazil will admit, at a re-
duction Of Is per cent from her estab-
ished tariffs, another list of articles
This includes lard, butter, canned
goods, and manufactures of cotton, iron
and steel, leather. wood and rubber.
There are few other items, but these
are most important. We shall thus
have a rs per cent advantage over the
most favored nation in these important
lines OF trade, and Brazil guarantees to
impose no further burdens on these
branchesiof commerce. Thisis the initial
step in carrying out Mr.. Blaine's great
policy, and its results will receive I'M
usual attention. If the outcome is what
is expected to snatch from the Euro.

Senator Mcmillan has tatkered bill
in the legislature that seeks to prevent
corruption in elections. The bill limits
the amount that can be expended by
any candidate or committee and re-
qu1res the publication by the latter of
an itemized statement of expenditures.
The bill, we think, can be considered as a
piece of foolishness. Very few candidates
expend money beyond the limits pre-.
scribed, and, if they did, what IS there in
the bill to prevent them from doing so:
If all men were honest, it would be a
good bill perhaps. But it's against
dishonesty that we legislate, and dis
honesty would get around a measure
like McMillan's every time.

Taxing mortgages is treble taxation,
aud treble taxation is thrice unjust.
That is all that there is about it. AS a

taxation altogether; it is only the home
