LONG BEACH, Sept. 12.-This after
noon Louis Friedell made a public apol-
ogy, in the city hall, to Alex Aikman,
for the assault made upon him last
Wednesday night. Alex accepted the
apology, but told him it was only out OF
consideration for his (Friedell's) wife
and babies that he did so. Alex de-
serves credit for the generous way In
which he acted, and has gained many
friends thereby. This affair should
prove a lesson to Friedell, and he had
better profit by it. Ffiedell paid the
costs of bringing the action. &.
THE BALLOON ASCENSION.
Last evening the citizens committee
continued it's morning meeting about
the balloon ascension. The meeting
was held in Fetterman's livery stable on
First street. All of the leading busi-
ness men were present. The question
before the meeting was whether
the men should be paid out
of the surplus in the Ninth
regiment money, for making
the ascension or whether they were to
be paid by private subscription. In the
morning the committee had decided
that they should be paid from the sur
plus, but G. Elikan, chairman of the
committee, appeared and protested, go
the matter went over until the evening.
At the meeting then some warm talk
was INDUCED in, but it was finally de-
cided that the money should be paid
from the surplus. The motion being
carried against Mr.. Elikan's solitary pro-
test.
BASEBALL.
The ball team decided to accept the
challenge of the Electric club to play to-
morrow. The Los Angeles men will come
in the afternoon. and the game will be
called about O'Clock. The Electric club
is strong team of its kind, and good
game is looked for.
THE WHARF.
The council met last night, and filed
out the blanks in the contract and bond,
and sent them today to Darby, Layden

some routine business, adjourned until
next Saturday, when the contract and
