plate iron and steel in the United States
In 1890, and more than equal to the pro-.
duction of sheet iron and sheet steel of
the guages that form the bulk used in
the manufacture of tinplate.
It is difficult to arrive at Just the
labor in a ton of sheets, but it would be
at least below the mark to assume that
it requires four days labor to produce
from the pig iron ton of sheet iron or
sheet steel. This would be equivalent,
then, to 100000 days labor in the
sheet mill, or the labor of ), 1888 men 500
days.
1t is also very difficult to state posi-
lively how many persons would be en-
ployed in the actual timing department
of these works, but $500 men working
500 days in the year would probably be
a low estimate.
Now, taking no account of the men
engaged in the transportation of metals
to their point of consumption, nor of
the men engaged in producing the lum-
Der or making the boxes to box this
amount of tinplate, of which some
eight million boxes would be required,
we would have the following as the,
number of men working 800 days in the
year that would be required to produce
the materials named above necessary
to make 422, 2s4 net tons of tinplate:

The Young Peoples Reception Held
Last Evening.
The first of series of receptions to be
given by the Young Mems Christian as
sociation was held last evening, and was
a brilliant success. 1t was especially in
tended for the young peoples societies
of the city, and was very largely at
tended. During the evening the follow
ing programme was given: Song, Mrs.
Stocker; address, Rev. ]. S. Dill, on
Christ the Model Young Worker; song,
Professor Kutner; recitation. Uncle
Reuben's Baptism, Prof. Geo. G. Hough.
Mr.. f. M. Porter spoke upon the at
fractions offered members during the
coming year.
After the formal programme, refresh
ments of cake and cream were served,
and an enjoyable informal social hour
was spent.
The first of the entertainments which
have been provided for members is a
concert by the Euterpean Quartette and
the Quintette club, which occurs on Sat-
urday evening of this week.
The night classes in Spanish, elocu-

erroneous idea of the real status of the
case as it left the hands of Judge Har-
mon. The advantage was practically
with Hopkins, and in the trial of the
case next May it looks very much as ii
the proof of undue influence upon Mrs.
Hopkins might turn out to be quite
strong. There has probably never been
a more fragrant suggestion of a down
right conspiracy than the way the
Messrs. Stillman and Hubbard consti-
tuted themselves partners" in a
wealthy womsn's estate. Such Machia-
vellian tactics employed in small
western city would probably have re-
suited in a riot, and the accommodating g
lawyers, who were willing to be en-
dowed with the Hopkins wealth, would
have been ridden out of town on rail,
in all likelihood.

COME RIGHT ALoNG-BRlNG YOUR IRON
WORKS.

1t is pleasant to know that the friends
of Los Angeles abroad are legion, and
that they embrace very noble class OF
people. Thus, yesterday, the HERALD
received letter from Hon. William B.
Dunning, the mayor of Geneva, in the
state of New York, enclosing draft for
renewed subscription to this paper.
Mr.. Dunning is also the proprietor oi
the New York Central Iron Works, To-
Gated at Geneva, whose staples are a
household word throughout the whole
United States. He says: 81 enclose
New York draft, etc. l had supposed
my interest in Southern California and
your beautiful city would have be-
come thing of the past, but am
yet very much interested in Los An
"geles and Southern California, and
"greatly regret that my time here is go
nearly spent, as / am now in my
seventy-fourtb year, that it is scarcely
practicable to make change. Poll
tics are lively here now, and a big
fight is on hand, but we expect to
win"
We assure our venerable friend that
it is never too late to move out to Los
Angeles. Let him come out here with
his family, and bring his iron works
along with him, and both will do well.
Sir William Temple, distinguished
statesman of the age of James the Sec
ond and of William and Mary; in Eng
land, says that it was the fashion of
gentlemen advanced in years, in his
time, to go out to Mexico and Central
and South America, and by that means
they extended their age score or more
years. The change OF climate works
wonderful transformations. IfMr. Dun
ming will come out to Los An
geles he will encounter such iocund
youths as Ex-Governor Pho Pico, the last of
the Mexican governors, who is only a
trihe over ninety, and who intends to
live as long as Dofla Eulaia Perez de
Gomez did, who died at the San Gabriel
mission at the ripe age of 1876. Come
right along, Mr.. Dunning, and do not
forget to bring along youl iron works
There is nothing we would welcome more
than the class of goods you manufacture,
VIZ, steam engines, Dunning's steam
heating boiler, and things of that kind.
II you will agree to come we'll engage to
meet you with brass band and have
an extra balloon ascension at the West
lake park to celebrate the happy event.

THE board of supervisors have lately
been struck by an economical streak.
They have at last come to comforting
realization of the fact that the numer-
ous clerks and deputies of our county
officials are falling over each other, and
that if a fire should occur in our new
and imposing court house there would
be danger OF these gentlemen, SO great
is their number, blocking up the out
let's. We are glad to be able to say that
the board have effected retrenehments
that amount to $500 month. The tax
payer is in the mood of the individual
who exclaimed, in the gratitude of his
heart, ''Small favors thankfully re-
ceived, large ones accordin'."

1T is only justice to the Southern Cali
fornia horticultural society that we
should state that the managers of that
association claim that they have in no
respect interfered with the Ladies'
Chrysanthemum society or their fair.
We are informed that, last year, they
gave way to the ladies', with the under
standing that this year they should be
allowed to name their own dates. They
determined, so we are informed, upon
the 9th of October and the succeeding
days away back in July, and they regard
it as an injustice that they should be
held up as interfering where
their sense Of gallantry would have
made them specially cautious and defer
ential. In their advertisement and pro-
gramme their enterprise at Hazards 8
pavilion is called the Second Annual
Fruit and Flower Show of the Southern
California Horticultural Society,"" The
proceeds Of their exhibit, they claim,
will be disbursed in premiums to the
Dlant and flower growers OF this section,
while the proceeds of the Chrysanthe-
mum fair are to be devoted to buying
an organ for the Simpson tabernacle
It is needless for us to add that the only
object of the HERALD in the premises il

can expect.

THERE is project on foot to have the
militia of the United States fully repre-
scented at the worlds fair, and Gen.
Miles figured on the occasion of meet
ing in Chicago yesterday, for that pur-
pose, in very effective way oratorical-
iy, placing the figures at one hundred
thousand men. He thinks that we
ought to show the power of our volun-
teer forces now and then, and that the
worlds exposition affords an admirable
opportunity for such an exhibition.
Major Truman pledged California for a
full regiment, on the authority of the
adjutant-general of this state, and said
that Californians would themselves de-
fray the expenses of sending it to the
Windy City and maintaining it while
there. The opinion of Gen. Miles that
congress ought to make an appropria-
tion for this military display may admit
of controversy. Doubtless state pride and
the liberality of the citizen soldiery
themselves will be sufficient to insure
splendid assembling of our volunteer
legions. The idea is a good one, and
will undoubtedly be carried out.

A FREIGHr-cAR BURGLAR.
Deputy Sheriff Cruz Makes Clever
Capture,

The case of Pedro Indy, who was ar
rested at the Palms on September 18th
by Deputy Sheriff Charles Cruz, for
breaking into Southern Pacific freight
Car and stealing thirty-one sacks of bar
ley, was called in Township Justice
Stanton's 8 court yesterday, but Indy did
not appear. His bail of $500, which
had been forwarded by his brothers, was
therefore declared forfeited and bench
warrant was issued for his arrest.
Indy is supposed to have gone to Low
er California. He was arrested by Dep
uty Sheriff Cruz only after good deal
of shrewd detective work had been done,
and it is stated by that officer that he
has been carrying on the business of
stealing from the Southern Pacifcs
freight trains for the last two years,
formerly at Los Metos and later at The
Palms. There is clear case against

George Geyser Fined for Assault mud Bat
tory-A woman's Tongue Causes his
Fail.
George Geyser was before Squire
Ankle yesterday, charged with having
assaulted Mrs. Baker, who lives Oh High
street. George was visiting a friend
across the street, and had some words
with Mrs. Thornton, a colored woman
living in the house adjoining Mrs.
Bakers. Geyser claimed that Mrs.
Thornton used very insulting language
toward him, and that he went across
the street to demonstrate with her. Mrs.
Baker, who is white woman, told him
not to come up the steps. The two
clinched and Mrs. Baker fell against the
window. She claimed that Geyser hit
her on the back,
Geyser's witnesses said that Mrs.
Thornton did use very bad language,
and Harry Adams said no decent per-
son would like to hear it, and he him
self did not use it. Harry was IN in
nocent young fellow, and was new to
the ways OF Justices office, and when
his testimony had been given walked
out OF the office, exclaimed: "Well,
that's the first time was ever in that
kind OF a place"

assault and battery and was required to
furnish bond on two peace warrants,

Education, began the speaker, pays IN
dollars and cents. Education is an
ornament to the rich and riches to the
poor. Morality must always run a1ear-
ful risk in the midst Of ignorance. The
poor must always be pitied for their
crimes, but the wise rascal should sut-
fer justice. Education, like the gospel,
plants itself in the lowest substratum
Of human society as well as in the pal
ace of the rich.
Money is the monarch of trade; you
talk money to people and they will lis
ten to you. The adage that money Is
the root OF all evil is not so, although
the unhallowed love Of money may be.
Let money alone; it is divine thing.
Money worships God as its creator, and
seeks to inscribe OH the brow OF bust
ness Everywhere "Love to God"
Bless money with hallowed use, and
you will be blessed to repletion. True
education binds morals and money in
separately. Merit is money and char
acter is coin. True education develops
the head to take care OF the heart.
Money lies so close to the highest sus-
capabilities and faculties Of man that
to seek it is an honor to him. The
problem OF education is to make might
triumphant in right. The world owes
no man living who does not claim it
with all his powers He is fortunate
who is born in a hollow, if he can but
get out in the light and afford a
demonstration OF what can be accom-
plished under difficulties. We inherit
nothing truly but what our actions
make us worthy OF. \ mans true lame
must strike from his own deeds. Who
dares to minify the wealth that God has
laid up in the meanest personality y
man owes the world the very best that
Is in him. Money comes to cheer US,
but it must depart from us to be OF BEN
eft to us.
Tho young man who has money and
no culture cannot compare with the
young man with culture and no money,
because the latter will have opportuni-
ties for advancement that are practi-
cally unlimited. The physical IMAM is
no factor in the world, because he can
be supplanted bya horse or by ma
chine; it is the brain, and not muscle
that wins fame and fortune.
The lecturer brought many pertinent
Illustrations to show that the man with
educated brains has a money value that
mere Drawn and cunning without edu-
cation can never rival.
His remarks elected the closest atten-
ton throughout, and were worthy OF
crowded house.
