A Pleasant Presentation.

In these practical days it appears to be a
pleasure DO certain iconoclastio scientists TO
go around smashing idols and controvert-
ing proverbs that custom has taught us TO
regard as almost iufalible. There is not a
child that has not strong faith, born Of ia
miliarity, in the old couplst:
Early to bed and early to rise
Makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise
And many are the trusting young souls
that have been coaxed off to bed against
their wills by this alluring promise, TO be
routed from the sheets the next morning,
not by herald announcing the approach
of Dame Fortune, but by the stern COM
mand Of a parent 20 get up and make the
fires, and hunt the calves, and milk the
COWS. and feed the horses and pigs. and then
find out what to do after breakfast
Early rising with Young America, whose
father was taught by his father to get up
with the fowls, will doubtless continue, but
that getting up before daylight makes a
man healthy has heen pronounced fallacy
by eminent medical authority. In the last
issue of the Herald of Health magazine
DR.. Andrew Wilson goes further than that,
and declares that when occasion offers and
business allows there is no measure which
will repair the body and recruit the mind
more readily or more thoroughly than the
simple expedient of remaining a day
in bed. That prescription is for
the middle~aged; youth may nap in the
morning, however, and be benefited by it.

The republicans are saying that notwith-
standing the Fifty-frst congress spent
billion dollars OF the peoples money this
congress will appropriate very nearly, il not
quite, that amount. 1t is true that the
appropriations for the first session Of this
congress will be very nearly as large as
they were for the first session Of the last con-
gress, but the reason is that the republicans
last congress passed laws which did not
affect the appropriations made by that
congress, but which called for appropria-
tions which greatly increased the volume Of
the appropriations to be made by this con-
gress. The Philadelphia Record prints the
following table which shows the increase
in some Of the items Of the appropriation
bills;

Notwithstanding the announcement that
the cholera has obtained q foothold in the
suburbs OF Paris, and the belief that the
disease actually exists in that city, there is
no falling off in the volume OF travel from
this country to Europe. lsmsy turn out
that Americans returning TO this country
late in the season will not be permitted to
land as quickly as they would like. II the
cholera gains strong foothold in London

No ONE can read the letter of Bert
MacGregor to Mrs. Willard, his sister,
without agreeing with the author, that
he was both suicide and murderer.
With his characteristic selfshness, he
was mean enough to recoil from going to
his self-imposed death alone. but took
advantage of his influence over his
child-wite to compel her to accompany
him. He confesses his unmanly self
ishness in this letter, and seems to have
a hazy consciousness that he is doing a
murderer's part, whilst even his pro-
claimed love for the devoted girl fails to
turn him aside from his horrible pur-
pose of urging her to an act which the
most abandoned wretch would try to
shield her from. His course was in
famous, and there is not single re-
deeming feature that the most charita-
BILE can discover in all the details of
the actions of MacGregor that led up to
the terrible and successful insistence
with which be drew his child-wife on to
immediate her pure young life upon the
altar of his willful selfshness--it is
blasphemy to call it love.

TIE annual number of the HERALD
which is published this morning, will
be found specially replete with interest
ing statistical and other matter. The
collection and grouping of such details
are perhaps more interesting to the
student than to the ordinary reader,
but they are invaluable for purposes OF
reference. The facts carefully collated
in this number all 60 to show great
and substantial progress during the past
year in the city and county of Los An
geles. The shipments east during the
past twelve months show an extraordi-
nary increase in ratio one which would
be incredible in an older community.
They exhibit in striking degree the
rapidity with which agricultural and

DISPATCHES have been received in
Los Angeles stating that the president
has commuted the sentence of death
against the Yuma Indians, for murder
ing their medicine man, to ten years
imprisonment. Attorney General Mil
Ter and Private Secretary Halford au-
thenticate this communication. This
is probably the golden mean. A certain
recognition of the tribal relations Of the
Indians is probably admissible, while,
at the same time, the aborigine should
be impressed with the idea that he
must realize his obligations to respec
the notions of civilized peoples.

DENTON'S ARREST.
Was the Alleged Train Rob-
ber kidnapped?
Who Got the Money Which He
Had?
What Became of the Contents of His
Sal0Ons
A Case of Apparent Overriding of Per-
sonal Rights = Denton's saloon
Thoroughly Looted
Yesterday.

It appears as il the arrest of Adelbert
D. Sly, alias A. S. Denton, in this city
on December 25th, on the charge OF be-
ing participant in the train robbery at
Glendale, Mo-, on November 30th, was
a case of overriding of personal rights,
no matter whether the man is the guilt
lest rascal in the country.
Mr.. Cornelison, who was an employee
of the Dentons while in this city, yester-
day made the following statement OF the
matter to a HERALD reporter:
Denton was arrested on Saturday last
at the postoHice, by Los Angeles de-
tective, and taken to the Nadeau hotel,
instead of the Jail, where he was
guarded by several Pinkerton men.
The detectives then went to his saloon
on Alameda and Turner streets, opened
the door, and proclaimed every one un-
der arrest. They asked the barkeeper
how much money there was in the
drawer. They took this and Whitaker
receipted for it. They showed no war
rant, and no friend was allowed to see
him. Mr.. Cornelison says that he never
had less than $2OO to $4UO on his person,
and that he had check book calling
for $l7l0, and no account was given to
any one of this money.
The saloon owned by the man ar
rested was yesterday looted. All the
fittings were taken out, and the place
completely wrecked. Who did this
could not exactly be determined, but
the fact remains. Officer Haskins and
another officer were present while the
saloon was being emptied. They de-
manded the keys, and believing they
had authority Cornelison gave up the
keys. They gave no receipt for the
goods they took.
If all these allegations are true, the
case would be hard to parallel even in
Russia. Guilty or innocent, Denton had
certain rights which are guaranteed to
every man in America, and according to
Cornelison's statements these rights
were in no particular regarded.
A most Interesting question presents
itself in the query, Who got the money
which Denton had on his person? And
what became of the contents OF his
saloon?

Heredity and HeaIun.

A6 recent meeting of Sorosis, the
well known woman's club, of New
York, one of the distinguished members
spoke as follows: "Heredity, although
a potent factor in the product of health,
is not fatality. Its complement is en-
vironment. Health is not positive
quantity. 1t is, like beauty, harmony.
Symmetry is the law of its development,
and education must be directed to the
whole OF we shall have monstrosities
either intellectual or physical. You
cannot play a harmony with one finger.
The harmony which thrills from the
harp of life seems to come from five
strings-nutrition, respiration, activity,
sustenation and cerebration, and the es-
sential woman's knowledge is that which
governs the best development of these
elements in her child"

the fact that the Hotel Coronado is

A VERY interesting circumstance in
the history of Los Angeles is the fact
that nine years ago yesterday this city
was first illuminated by electricity.
Most people are not aware that the City
of the Angels is the first community in
the world that was ever exclusively
lighted in this manner. The gentleman
who introduced the system in this place
was Mr.. c. H. Rowland, who is extern
sively known in Missouri and in the
north and southwest. Mr.. Howland
was the pioneer in electrical illumina-
ton, aud he built the first electric rail
way ever operated in the United
States. This is high distinction
for any man. A somewhat in
structive episode of Mr.. Howland's
building operations is that he was once
slightly at variance with the superin-
tendent OF the company which he repre-
sented, who was then resident at San
Francisco. A property holder on the
hills back OF the city, who desired to
exchange real estate for stock in the
electric company, offered to swap q
block OF land for $4,000. Mr.. Rowland
desired to consummate the transaction,
but he failed to find his principal re-
