IN SOCIETY

The next theatrical entertainment in
which society is interested is the per-
formance to be given at the Los Angeles
theater, Saturday evening next, by a
number of ladies and gentlemen, in
behalf of the Women's Industrial ex-
change. The entertainment will be a
production of the well-know Peak fam
lily, with many new features introduced
by local talent. 1t is entirely humorous,
and promises to be great success, as
opportunity will be given to introduce
the specialties of our well-known local
favorites. The entertainment is being
gotten up by committee from the
exchange, consisting of Mrs. Mitchell,
Miss Wills and Mrs. Creighton, and
their well-known ability, assisted by the
talent already volunteered, promises one
of the best amateur performances ever
presented here; and besides, it will be
literally patronized. 1t is for the
worthy Woman's exchange.

Last Friday evening number OF
friends, sure of having a good time,
spent the evening with Miss Viola Nor
Mr.. PAYNE, Miss O'Connor and Mrs.
sic during the evening. At a late hour
the spacious dining room was thrown
open, and the guests partook of an ele-
gantly laid supper. Among those present
were Mrs. Hood, DR.. and Mrs. Cole,
Miss Potts, Miss Min, Miss O'Connor
and Miss Edith Norviel, DR.. Choate,
Will Holman. William Norviel and j.
Bergn. Long after midnight their
merry voices could be heard taking their
departure, wishing for many more
pleasant evenings to be spent with Miss
Norviel.
The features OF the successful sacred
concert at the Arcadia hotel on Sunday
were the piano playing of Prof. Luchesi,
the recitation of Miss Josephine Will.
Jams and the singing of Miss Bertha
Penning. Prof. Luchesi is one of the
best pianists ever heard in Southern
California. Miss Williams recited in ad-
mirable style and was recalled several
times. Miss Bertha Penning is one oi
the coming singers of California. She
has a splendid contralto voice, and is
destined to make a mark for herself as a
vocalist. She is a Los Angeles girl, and
in addition to being good singer isvery
pretty and has an excellent stage pres
ence.

STREET SUPERINTENDENT HUTCHINSON,
who is evidently diligent reader of the
HERALD, sent communication to the
council yesterday in reference to nu-
merous complaints about bad smells
which had reached that body and been
referred to him. He says that they do
not emanate from the sewers, but from
the foul and noisome garbage wagons
which pollute the air. AS a matter of
fact, these wagons are an incredible
nuisance. They are, apparently, never
cleaned, and their emanations are an
offence to high heaven. The HERALD
has frequently called attention to this
unbearable and incredible nuisance.

The Itata Cases Likely to Be Dis

The Itata Cases Likely to Be Dis
missed.
Special Counsel Alexander A. Camp
bell, who has been retained to prosecute
the cases growing out of the Itata incl
dent, received a dispatch yesterday
from Attorney General Miller, to the
effect that by stipulation the trial of
Trumbull, Burt and O'Farrel will be
postponed from September 10th till
September Goth.
This is construed to mean that the
judicial department does not want to
enter into the trial of these cases until
the policy of the government toward the
quondam insurgents is definitely settled
1t is believed by the local government
officers that this move presages the dis
missal of all three actions, the criminal
proceeding against Burt, Trumbull and
O'Farrel and the two libel suits against
the Itata and her arms. The date of
the trial has been set in the first-named
case only.

THERE was a very animated conten-
ton in the Board of Education last
night, and the interesting question is as
to whether Mrs. Severance is or is not a
member OF that body. 1t looks very
much as if the lady and her partizans
had the best OF the argument. We re-
fer our readers to a full report of the
proceedings, which appear in our local
columns

UNITED STATES JUDGE SAWYER died
last night. The federal judiciary on
the Pacific coast seems to be threat
ened on all sides. 1t was but the
other day that Judge Hoffman paid the
debt of nature. The probability of
Judge Sawyer's retiring under the law.
and his replacement by Hon. w. w.
Morrow, was very much discussed be-
fore the illness of Judge Hoffman. The
president is now given quite latitude
of choice in appointing judges on the
federal bench on the Pacific coast. 1t
will be an interesting question as co
whether he can discard partizanship in
this important matter. 1t is pretty
generally admitted that the character of
the federal judges can be very much
improved over the traditions of the last
decade.

Four libel suits, entitled, respectively,
w. G. Chormicle VS.. Ayers & Lynch,
Thomas MARBLE VS.. Ayers & Lynch, J..
Y. Morrison VS.. Ayers & Lynch and
Will Gardner VS.. Ayers & Lynch, each
for $4,000, were. dismissed in Judge
Wade's court yesterday on stipulation
of attorneys and payment of costs.
They were founded upon an inconsider-
ate article written by reporter of the
HERALD arising out of some occurrences
in Antelope valley. In this article, on
information received by an inexperi-
enced reporter, not familiar with the
country or the gentlemen implicated,
they were accused OF having been iden-
titled with the Mountain Meadow mas
sacre, and with certain other episodes
which it is not now necessary to recapit-
ulate. II the proprietors of the HERALD
had seen the article which was the
basis of these suits it would never have
appeared. They disapproved of it at
the time in subsequent issue of the
HERALD, and now formally repeat their
disapproyal.

NAPA, Cal, Oct. I2.-The heaviest
earthquake shock ever felt here Was
experienced at 1880 last night. People
rushed into the streets in their night
clothes in great excitement. Chimneys
tcppied over, several buildings were
sheltered and badly shaken up. Drug
store fixtures suffered greatly, bottles
being thrown from shelves to the floor
and other damage done. The Masonic
temple, fine building, was shattered.
At the insane asylum great excitement
prevailed, the patients being almost
uncomfortable. 1t is reported that the
building was cracked aud other damage
done.
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL., October l2.--
The effects of the earthquake, which
visited some portions of \ Northern Cal
ifornia last night appear to have been
greatest in Napa aud the Synoma Val
lev, where the shock Is described as
being the heaviest experienced since
the great quake of 1868. At Aapa and
Sonoma walls were cracked, chimneys
were demolished and ia some instances
fell through the roofs. Window glass
was broken, people were reused from
their beds and many passed the night
in the streets.

the result of the political light ana

who have been doing missionary work
in and around oconee? Are our farm
ers in favor Of any such scheme as Is
proposed by the Burns Mills Alhance

wonder if Burns Mills Alliance NO.

this fertilizer manufactured under this
scheme the railroads, factories and cor
porations and people living in cities
and TOYS would get. They pay State
taxes. But then Burns Mills Alliance

Resolued. That we, members OF
