OUR WORLDS COLUMBIAN FAIR ILLUS
TRATED EDITION.

The HERALD will issue worlds Co
Iumbian fair edition Of the ILLUSTRATED
HERALD. Arrangements have been
made with the most finished artists in
America to insure the greatest perfection
of detail to the illustrations. A quarter
of a million copies of this matchless
publication will be issued. 1t will be
printed on heavy book paper. and will
be distributed by uniformed boys during
the progress of the exposition, and the
distribution will be under the direction
of an intelligent superintendent, who
will see that each copy shall go where it
win do the most good. 1t will be de-
voted to Southern California, every por-
tion of which will be treated impair
TALLY. In few days accredited agents
of the HERALD will start out on the
work of canvassing the people in the
interest of this mammoth enterprise.
Those who can contribute advertising
patronage are expected to do 30, while
almost anybody can subscribe for copies
to be either mailed eastby themselves, or
distributed at the worlds fair through
the HRRALD's agency. There is no rea-
son why the greatest boom ever known in
the history of Southern California should
not follow in the wake OF the Columbian
worlds fair. 1t is the mission Of the
HERALD to see that this shall be the
case. The high standard of previous
editions of the HERALD is a guarantee
that this supreme effortwill be of excep-
tional merit. The aim will be to make
it nonpareil. 1t will be noted that in
this ambitious edition all the counties
of Southern California are to be in
cluded. We bespeak for this enterprise
the generoun patronage which will un-
doubtedly be accorded to it, and which
in reality will only be bread cast upon
the waters, which will return before the
lapse of many days. This is the mis-
sionary era in Southern California. We
need people, and the HERALD proposes
to see that they shall get here, in great
numbers and Of the right kind.

We had great pleasure in meeting in
Los Angeles yesterday ex-Sheriff Solon

townsman looks hale and hearty and is
characterized by the old geniality and
square fellowship. Age deals lightly

get to ask our old time friend whether
he was going to vote for Cleveland. Per-
haps that is too much to expect from
this dyed-in. the-wool Republican.

THE FOURTH.

The Whittier Cadets to Parade-A Good
Showing Promised.
The Fourth of July committee held a
meeting yesterday. A communication
from the Whittier cadets commander
stated that the cadets would appear 1S0
strong and the little fellows are all eager
to show the public their proficiency in
drilling. They will have their own
band and drum corps, and will be a
great attraction. The trades exhibit
will contain more than was at first con-
jectured blythe committee. Every detail
is busy carefully considered to make
one of the most satisfactory demonstra-
tions ever attempted in this city.
The poem accepted is entitled Colum-
bia, by W, ID. Townsend, and is indeed
a credit to home talent.

THE PEOPLES PARTY.

This is one of those presidential years
that will be marked by great variety
in the political viands laid before the
voter. He will have wide range of
choice, and there will be cut and come
again for all. From the many formida-
BILE manifestations that proceed from
the region Of Omaha the tyro in politics
might be led to believe that there was a
presidential hen on in that quarter that
might come to something. But, outside
of drawing largely from the Republican
strength, in this year of grace at least,
the Peoples party can only hope to cut
subsidiary figure in the contest. Oc-
casionally, when the editorial pundit
gets down to his work OF outlining the
political horoscope he makes the possi-
bility of one or more southern states
being carried by either the Peoples
party, or the Republican party, through
the formers assistance, figure in his
columns. This kind of specula-
ton may be dismissed at once.
Were the elections local in their
character diversion might be made
in the south that might include South
Carolina and possibly the virginias.
But nothing is more certain than that
Cleveland and Stevenson will receive
the electoral votes of the "solid south. /"
This result is written in the book of fate,
and it would be moro impressively
shown should the silver question, az
now seems likely, be eliminated from
the current campaign by the passage of
free coinage measure. Those who
think that in a year in which the aureola

Trunk Making.

Among the many manufactures in
this city is that of J. G. Cnnningham's g,
at 1876 South Main street. Mr.. Cum
ningham conducts large establish
ment and deals in all kinds OF trunks
and travelling bags. He keeps five men
constantly employed making trunks and
does repairing of all kinds. The travel
ing public can obtain goods in his line
as cheap as anywhere ON the coast. Mr..
Cunningham has been in business here
, for the past eight years. His goods are
guaranteed and there is nothing in the
trunk or travelling bag line that he can
not furnish.

We DREW attention, the other day, to
the striking advances in population in
this city, shown by the last city direc-
tory. The assessment roll also shows
that we have not been going behind.
Last year the official wealth of Los An
geles county was $50, ,675, ,l57. This year
the figures for the city and county footed
up $71 $50 372, This shows an increase
of $1.S64,2l5 for the twelvemonth, and
it is probably conservative estimate.

MISS MARGARET MATHER, a popular
actress, has secured divorce from her
husband, Emil Haberkorn (who ia no
relation to the Marquis of Abercorn) !,
on the ground Of failure to provide.
just what the husband in the case was
expected to provide, when the wife has
been averaging an income of $500 per
month for the past three years, does not
appear upon the surface. We confess
to an admiration for the drama as we'll
as for many of its surroundings, but
that admiration does not extend to the
conjugal ticket-counter.

TIE twaddle and gush in some OF the
alleged ''ssssiety" papers of San Fran
cisco, are enoughgto sicken any woman
of average innate modesty. The recent
lawn tennis tournament at San Rafael
has given the Jenkins family full scope
for display Of "taffy" towards certain
fashionable young ladies of the Bay
City, regardless OF the historical fact
that "Taffy was Welshman" and that
there were very serious imputa!ions
against his honesty.

THE weather clerk, in view of the ap-

signs of letting up in the fervor of his

Smoke rs a Drink.
From The Ne,o YorE Herald.


A statute OF Vermont declares that ''if a
party obtaining verdict in his favor shall,
during the term Of court in which such ver-
dict is obtained, give to any of the jurors in
the cause, knowing him to be such, any
victual or drink by way of treat, either be-
fore or after such verdict, on proof thereof
being made the verdict shall be set aside.n
This. it will be noted prohibits winning
litigant or his lawyer from treating" the
jury to "any victuals or drink" for weeks
and perhaps months after the verdict has
been rendered. That Is a remarkable law,
but still more remarkable is the interpreta-
tion recently given to it by the supreme
court of Vermont. Es
The court has set aside verdict because
the successful complainant gave some of the
jurors cigars after the verdict had been
rendered. Cigars are not mentioned in the
statute, but the court holds that they come
within the spirit if not the letter of the law.
In separate opinion judge. Taft goes so
far as TO hold that they are within the letter
as well as the spirit,z Here is hrs View

TIE YOUNG PARSONS CAYENNE.
His Hoosier Friend Thought 1t Too
Hot for a Universalist to Use.

from the 81 LOUIS hepNOIc.
That little fun now and then is relshed
by the best as well as the wisest of men, is
not infrequently illustrated in the social
meetings Of the Protestant clergy of the
city. They enjoy good joke as heartily
as anyone, and not few of the st. Louis
ministers are capital story tellers. AS an
instance, the following ludicrous anecdote
is given as related the other day by an old
and prominent minister:
MANY years since," he said, when
simon pure uuiversalism was preached [
chanoed to be in Indianapolis during the
progress of a convention of ministers Of
that faith. Stopping at the same hotel
where l did was young parSon who had
come from the east to attend the conven-
tion. AS it afterwar developed he had
taken the precaution in visiting that
malarious country to carry a vial of
cayenne peper in his pocket, 10 sprinkle his
food with, as preventive Of fever and
ague. At dinner one day tall Hoosier
observed the parson as he seasoned his meat
and addressed him:

feeling himself proof against any quantity

the red salt with impunity, and accord>

RICHES OF HINDoo PRINCES.
Even the Hiits of the Swords They

Even the Hiits of the Swords They
Carry Are Worth a Fortune.
Sir Edlcin Arnold in Chicago Tribune.
What would crafty most, no doubt. such
American ladies as may honor me by read
ing these sketchy recollections, amid all
those picturesque surroundings of eastern
royal life. would be, l think, the various
Tosha' a'khanas or treasure chambers Of the
Indian courts.
Some of the finest gems in the world are
still to be seen in these Tosha'khanas of the
peninsula, where they are greatly priced
and carefully guarded. Many of the best
pearls from Ormuz or Ceylon, of the
choicest pigeon blood rubies from Burmah; !;
emeralds Of extraordinary size carved with
long inscriptions in Persian. Arabic and
Sanskrlt, with delicate and costly enamels
after the style of the master art Of Jeypore.
were stored in that royal collection which
inspected at Baroda of Guzarat. There
were swords there whose hilts alone were
worth large estate, so richly were
they crusted with costly stores, and the
blades of some among them were of such
fine and perfectly tempered steel as to be
occasionally more valuable than the
handles. Certain among the choicest blades
had slots cut in the damasked steel up and
down which ran costly pearls or rubies cut
TO a round head, and some of them were
thrust into spiral scabbards, SO faultless
were their spring and elasticity. The old
Mahratta custodian would suddenly open
some old marmalade jar or sardine box
taken from the great barred vault aud turn
out Of this unlikely receptacle, rolled in an
ancient red or green rug. such a belt of
sapphires and diamonds, such diadem of
Oriental rubies, such bracelet or ankle5 or
ring for the nose or finger must have made
the eyes of any lady who had proper and
becoming passion for beautiful things
sparkle like the jewels themselves.
On high public occasions these princes
and magnates of India vie with each other
in the dazzling and gorgeous display of
gems with which they repair on their ele-
plants to durbars or receptions. The
native classical name for such lovely baubles
is santosha, the Sanskrit word for "content-
ment," as if their wonder and beauty were
calculated to fill ordinary hearts and minds
quite to the brim. 1t is better, however,
for those who are not millionaires to talk
and think as little as possible about the
glittering contents Of those Indian treasure
chambers.
