PRENTICE MULFoRD was found dead in
his canoe on Long Island sound three
days since. He was out on long and
solitary cruise, and had been dead for
several days when the canoe was picked
up. Mulford was well known in Cal
ifornia. He had been for many years
hack-writer" both for newspapers and
magazines in, San Francisco. He was
considered by his friends as notional
and eccentric. Whilst he wrote well,
and would have been valuable acquis-
ition to any newspaper, he preferred to
write only as the mood took him and
upon such subjects as struck his fancy,
rather than to tie himself down to reg
ular journalism. Some of his sketches
of mining life and mountain scenes were
clever, but he lacked the power to reach
the public heartin the portrayal of from
tier character. as Bret Harte and Dan
de Quille have done. The last time he
visited California, less than year ago,
he tried the lecture platfrom, but not,
we believe, with much success. Mr..
Mulford's literary aspirations were
greater than his gifts, but he was much
esteemed as we'll as admired by the very
few persons who knew him intimately.

THEATRICALS.
The Owls Tonight in Caste-Notes of
Other Events.

Other Events.
There will be a minimum of amateur
ish gaucherie about the Owl club per-
formance of Caste tonight at the
Opera house. In fact there are three of
the performers who could not be de-
tected from professionals, judged by
their work. ~u
The affair will be success. One OF
the women will be found particularly
satisfactory to both the eye and the ear.
"She will soon be professional, /" you
will say tonight when you see her. Who
is she? Go tonight and see if you can
pick her out. 1t is dollars to tamales
that you will succeed. And the men !;
Dobinson, Vogelsang, Lehman, Barnes,
they will all do pleasingly tonight.
Some of them, it is true, will play de-
cidedly better than the others, but as to
who the better ones are-it would
hardly be fair to say now.
How does the HERALD know all this
Why, it assisted at dress rehearsal last
evening. and as a result can promise a
most enjoyable entertainment to all who
attend. The house should be jammed.
Mr.. Lehman deserves we'll of the public.
1t is his benefit, be it we'll understood,
which means that he will have the sur
plus over expenses; but the latter will
be heavy, for the play is to be mounted
to perfection. You ought to go, and take
somebody with you. All the fine world
will be there, which is another reason
for attending.
NOTES.
On Wednesday evening the Katie En-
NETT company will appear at the opera
house in Waits of New York.
Honest Hearts and Willing Hands,
with John L. Sullivan as leading man,
is the next company to appear at the
Los Angeles theater.
Frohman's Men and Women company
is billed at the opera house on the 18th.
Diplomacy will be played on one night
during the engagement.
The benefit concert rendered to Mr.
Albert Hawthorne, the talented young
basso of the city, has been arranged to
take place on the 10th of June. The
best amongst the local musicians are to
take part in this the farewell testimonial
to a singer who has been ever ready to
give his services to any call made upon
him during the five years of his resi-
dence here. Mr.. Hawthorne has un-
doubtedly one of the best voices on the
concert stage today, and the oppor-
tunity is offered him OF good engage
ment in New York city by Mr.. Br0d-
erick, the basso OF the late Abbott opera
company. There is no doubt but that
his voice will make him the success he
deserves, and it is to be hoped that the
Los Angeles music-loving public will
literally assist.

The case of John Zwald, who, urged
by the cravings of conscience, made a
clear breast, at Sacramento few days
since, OF having murdered his two wives,
is one OF those rare occurrences in which
guilty men can find no rest for their per-
turbed spirits but in giving themselves
up to justice. This man, according to
his own story, suffered the tortures of
the damned for several years; but de-
clared that as soon as he had confessed
his crimes and given himself up to the
officers of the law his mind was relieved
and he experienced sweet nights
sleep, something be bad not had for
years. 1t is remarked in Zwald's con-
fession that he takes great pains to just
ify his murders by making out his wives
to have been unamiable companions.
The first one was very disagreeable and
kept him constantly in "hot water" as
he puts it. But as there seems to have
been another woman in the case, who
became his confederate in the crime, it
is not likely that she was put out of the
way solely because she was disagree
able person. The second one, how
ever, invited sharp retaliation, if
Zwald's story is to be believed. She
quarreled with her step-children and
smoked a pipe, two habits that would
hardly recommend her to man of nice
feeling; but yet they would hardly just
ify the Othello act which he admits he
carried out against his Desdemona. If
the rest of his story is true, however, we
will all have to admit that he had solid
reasons for getting very wroth, and per-
maps for resorting to extreme measures.
He says that this amiable spouse had a
disagreeable habit of kicking him out of
bed and making him sleep in the barn.
This would be enough to aggravate any
man, and we doubt if Zwald's con-
science would have brought him to book
if it had only had this one deed to
wrestle with. There seems to have
been no suspicion whatever that he had
killed either OF his wives; but in this
instance, as in so many others, Shake
speare's words are verified, "that muir
der, though it have no tongue, will
speak with most miraculous organ,"
even though it have to speak through
the mouth of the murderer himself.

THE admission of Bradfeld to $1,000
bail yesterday for the killing OF Joe Dye
will seem to many people very peculiar
performance. Whatever the verdict of
the jury may be as to the merits of the
case, the apparent facts are that Brad
field shot down Dye in cold blood from
second-story window of Commercial
street lodging house. On the face of
things, it was about as cool and premed-
itated an assassination, as has been re-
corded at any time in this or any other
city. The HERALD is not attempting to
take any stand for or against Bradfeld
in the trial which will determine his
guilt or innocence. He either COM
mitted murder or he was guilty of
no crime, and it seems to us that that
is a thing for the jury to determine.
To let him out ON bail is OF itself to pass
judgment on the merits of the case, and
to give the accused an advantage which
the peculiar circumstances of the case do
not call for. Joe Dye may have been
handy with his pistol, yet it remains to
be established that he ever took an un-
fair advantage. But the personal char
acter of the dead man ought not to fig
ure in the matter of investing such oc-
currences with the due solemnity of the
law. Double barreled shotguns loaded
with double B shot, and fired from the
second-story window of house into an
unsuspicious victim, call for an exact
observance of all the forms of law.

her liberality and public spirit by donat-
ing to the city about ten acres of land,
adjoining the five acres donated by ex-
Mayor Workman, at Brooklyn Heights,

has already signalized the large gener-

the Hollenbeck hotel block, to the en-
dowment of home for INDECENT and

wealth is so well bestowed as it has

HERE is no being so utterly uninter-
esting as your censorious ass. The
spirit of hypercriticism is generally the
possession of your dense Beetian, who
is always on the lookout for something
which can enable him to disclose the
familiar lineaments OF a Smart Aleck.
The HERALD, the other morning, con-
tanned reference to the great energy in
water development which is now being
shown in San Bernardino county. In
the course of this brief article this Jour-
nal referred to a number of projects
which are now under way in our neigh
boring county. Some Smart Aleck, who
signs himself Pirate" appears in the
Times of yesterday and shows the un-
mistakable earmarks of an ass. The HER
AID stated that Cincinnati syndicate
were engaged in a project which contem-
plates the bringing of water from the
south side of Mt. San Bernardino to the
north side Of that mountain, the con-
struction of large reservoir and the dis
tribution of water on the Cucamonga
plains. pirate" Immediately raises a
cry that the HERALD is aiming to de-
prive Redlands of water. AS the Gin
cinnati people have not the slightest
idea of interfering with the Bear valley
reservoir, or with the plans of its enter
prising managers, the absurdity of
"Pirate" is as atrocious as the name
he adopts. The HERALD also spoke
of company who intend to
strike the headwaters of the Sweet
water. which now discharges it's
waters on the slope leading down to the
Colorado desert, and which they will
seek to make available for irrigating por-
tions of the Potrero and the San Jacinto
