DRATHaoF A GOOD KING.

Inc ANNOUNCEMENT OF tno QoaCn OF
King Kalakaua comes with lightning
speed upon the heels of the re-
port of his serious illness. Whilst
all knew that he was not in
robust health when here two weeks
ago, no one could have anticipated that
there was anything alarming in his con-
s1ition. 1t seems, however, that his sys-
tenn was greatly enfeebled, and that he
was not strong enough to stand the
strain of the public receptions his sta
tion subjected him to since he arrived
in California.
King David Kalakaua was born in No
vember, 1886, and was therefore just
past his fifty-fourth year. He was the
seventh king of the Hawaiian Islands,
and has reigned since February 18th,
1874. His descent, on his mothers side,
is from Keawe, an ancient and notable
king of the island of Hawaii. There will
doubtless be several candidates for the
vacant throne. His sister, who is the
wife Of distinguished American resi-
dent, is the nearest in the direct line OF
succession But there are several high
chiefs who will doubtless aspire to the
crown, and lay their claims before the
special session of the legislature that
will be called to select successor to
Kalakaua.
The dead king was man of culture
and wide observation. He was liberal
in his views, and pursued steadfast
policy in the interest and prosperity OF
his people. He leaves the islands in in
comparably better condition than they
were when he ascended the throne.
His friendliness to Americans led him to
shape his policy towards close COM
mercial alliance with our country, and
the reciprocity treaty has been not only
of immense advantage to the islands
but Of great value to the commercial in
terests OF the Pacific states. Kalakaua
was not only wise in his generation, but
his wisdom has laid the basis for great
benefits to be realized by his country in
future times. He has cemented the
interests of his kingdom SO inseparably
with ours, that whatever may be the
political mutations OF the islands it will
he impossible to dissever the commercial
ties which now so firmly connect them
with the United States. Measured by
the mental calibre of the average Euro
pean sovereign, the dead king of the
Hawaiian Islands was as Hyperion to

OLSEN THE BUTTER.
He Butts Plate Glass Doors and
Then Tries a Policeman.


Then Tries Policeman.
Alta 4o'clock yesterday morning Charles
Olsen, who was until recently employed
at the Pico house, entered the office OF
that hostelry in state of shocking in
ebriety, and after threatening to lick the
night clerk, attempted to get even with
the proprietors of the hotel by smash
ing up their furniture. After several
attempts to ''fire" the intruder the
clerk telephoned for police headquarters,
and Officer Mcguire was despatched to
his assistance. On his arrival at the
hotel, the policeman found that
Olsen had, after wrecking the furni-
ture, butted the plate glass doors,
smashing them to pieces. He was, how
ever, deluged with blood, which flowed
freely from his head and arms, and on
being taken to the station he was placed
in the receiving hospital for medical
treatment. DR.. III. B. Wing was sum-
moned and dressed his wounds, one OF
which on top of the mans head was
over an inch long and required several
stitches, an artery having been severed.
AS he was being taken to a cell after
leaving the DOCTORS hands, he butted
Officer Bosqui in the head and was
very violent until he became. weak from
loss of blood.

THAT Los Angeles has pretensions TO
genuine interest in art cannot be
doubted by those who take the trouble
to look in at the Ruskin art exposition,
which is now being held in the Potomac
block. The class of work exhibited is OF
itself of a high grade, and the attendance
OF kind tieat bespeaks culture and dis
'cernment. This is natural, in view of
the fact that our population is specially
eclectic one, and embraces an unusually
large proportion of people who have had
the advantages OF inspecting the art
galleries of Europe. There are quite a
number OF rare and valuable etchings
and mezzotints in the collection which
will well repay the visit of connoisseurs.

THE Kaweah colony, which seems to
have been established upon the Bellamv
plan, finds itself in a situation which
will call for sympathy. It seems that
their lands have been included in the
boundaries Of the reservation made by
congress for the sequoia National park,
in the Visalia land district, and that
therefore they will not only be unable
to acquire title to thena, but will be
liable to summary expulsion. The colo
nists have made extensive and valuable
improvements upon their location, and
unless their location asftedates the act
of congress creating the reservation and
defining its boundaries, they will have
no recourse. Otherwise they would
doubtless have equitable claims for in.

THE LIvELIEsr CITY ON THE COAST.

1t may interest the constitutional
GROWERS who, for her sins, infest the
City of the Queen of the Angels, to know
that this place is today yincontestably the
Sliveliest spot on the Pacific coast. A gen.
'tleman has lately returned to Los An
sgeles who has been in all the so-called
boom towns, including Seattle. Portland
Tacoma, salt Lake. and others, which he
visited with view to locating in one Of
them, and he says that this city shows
more real push and business activity
than any town he visited. For himself
she avows spirit of perfect content that
he is again safely located in the most
charming region on the American CONT
'nent, and nothing could move him away
from Los Angeles.
In every one of the cities he visited he
encountered many people engaged in
business who avowed that they were
only waiting for favorable opportunity
to get here for keeps. This was
particularly the case with those
who had once lived in Los An
geles. The perpetual snow or rain or
ice or-slush had disenchanted them all
with Oregon, Washington, Utah and
Montana. They dream O. nights of the
beautiful land of sunshine and flowers
they once dwelt in. and all their ener-
gies will be devoted to getting their
affairs into such shape as will admit
of their coming back.
This feeling obtained a very app osite
expression, the other day, in front of the
Hotel Westminster. party was leav-
ing for the train going north, and an
eastern lady friend was seeing them off.
Her last words were, ''How can you
leave such a beautiful country as this
Pm going to stay"
No wonder people wish to get to Los
Angeles! The real wonder is that they
don't fall over each other in their tu-
multuous eagerness to reach region
where in mid-winter we have mid May
weather, and where tube-roses, hello
tropes and camellias grow in the open
air all through the year. The idea of
spring lamb, spring veal, green peas,
string beans, green corn, fresh to-
matoes, and a score of other del
icaces that are only attainable by the
average easterner in the later spring
and summer, is indeed captivating. 1t
is pleasant, too, to be able to sniff the
orange and lemon blossoms, and to pluck
the golden spheres from your own trees.
When to all these attractions it can be

QUrTE cold wave has strack the fer
vor OF the Alabama legislature anent it's
intention to aid in the success of the
worlds fair. That body has tabled all
legislation in favor of the exhibition
until it sees what congress will do with
the force bill, on the ground that if that
revolutionary measure passes there will
be no need to make any sacrifices to
induce immigration to come to Alabama.
In other words, if the Anglo-Saxon race
is to be subjugated to the negro by force
of an oppressive and discriminating law,
it would be idle to ask enlightened peo-
pie to settle in their midst. There is a
large sized plum in that pudding.

Mr.. CANNON, the gentleman who is at
the head OF the Farmers Alliance in this
state, is very positive in his declaration
that the last two years have wrought a
wonderful change in the farmers upon
the tariff question, and that they are

is his opinion that if the Democrats of
California had made their late state
fight mainly upon the tariff principle
they would have elected Pond by large
majority. There is no doubt that the

taxes, although they were small
amount, only $ll. They became delin-
quent and were sold. A tax deed was
about to be issued for the property and
he went to redeem it before this was
done. Imagine his CONSERVATION at
learning that the amount had grown to
