The New YORK World. in long biog-

how the Wizard of Wall street put up
$l6O 600 to have Hayes counted into the
presidency in 1876. OF this sum $50 900
went to Louisiana and the rest was ex-
pended in South Carolina and Florida.
As Providence generally arranges such
matters, Hayes proved ungrateful and
signed instead of vetoing the Thurman

TIMELY ToPICS-AN UNPLEASANT PR o.
GRBSS.

The growth OF crime in Los Angeles is
certainly something ont of the common
1. is not only great in quantity, but
infinite in variety. In the old days an
occasional murder was all that we could
fall back upon 10 the daily press to dissi-
pate the ennui Of every day life. OF late
we have grown quite ambitious. and all
kinds OF infractions of the laws of God
and man are reported daily. This is not
pleasant to contemplate, and it seems to
US that the churches, which are numer-
GUS in the Angelic city. ought to put a
more effectual curb on vice. The query
OF Christ, (which was neighbor to that
man." suggests itself most pertinently.
Perhaps the best results in the line of
philanthropic effort can be expected in
the reclamation, and, where possible,
the protection OF the young.
