The American tug of war team OF Los
Angeles are hot, and they have every
reason to be. Last night letter was
received from the San Francisco team
making an entirely different proposition
to the one which they originally accept
ed. The local management went ahead
and advertised the contest in good
faith, thinking that the San Francisco
team would live up to their agreement
At the last moment the San Francisco
team come In with a counter proposis
ton, which is evidently a subterfuge
to get out OF the match, as the winners
of the coming contest were to be the
representative American team in the
coming international match in San
Francisco. The Los Angeles American
team have entered for this match, and
their entry should be accepted, since
the American team OF San Francisco have
backed down.
The American team OF Los Angeles
will pull the American team of San
Francisco for $1,000, $4,000 $4,000 side,
either in Los Angeles or San Francisco,
the visiting team to be allowed their
expenses.

The Wonderful Chinook.

A correspondent at Calgary Naites as
follows: "On Wednesday night, Jan. 20,
this part Of Canada witnessed one Of
those peculiar phenomena called @ CHI
nook. The day was an ordinary winter
day-clear, bright and frosty. About 8
p. m., without sign Of warning, gale
sprang up in an instant. Those inside
rushed out to see blizzard, but instead
they We're met by clear sky and a hot,
soft wind. In a few minutes the ther-
mometer jumped from a few degrees
above zero to 49 above. The wind was
from point OF two north of west. A
change so sudden, though unusual, has
occurred before But what seems strange
is that during all Of this time the ther-
mometer was 40 degs. below zero at
Laggan, little over 100 miles west of
here, and in the mountains. A differ
ence of 80 degs. of heat in 100 miles
must be something wonderful. Yet the
wind, which was blowing gale, and at
times almost hurricane, was blowing
directly from Laggan. The wind and
the heat was maintained during the
greater part Of the night, and the cold
was intense at the other point for ali
that time. Now the question l would
like to ask the learned men of the east
is, Where does the chinook wind come
from?'-Toronto Mail.

The End of a Connecticut Bull Case.

After the celebrated Winsted bull case
was ended on Friday the bull was deco
rated with ribbons and flags and led
through Main street. Upon the upper
part of the bulls appendage the animal
had handsome bouquet made Of white
ribbons; his horns were garlanded with
yellow ribbons, around his body was a
surcingle, and each of his sides was
ornamented with AN American flag. He
was gaudy looking bovine, and his ap-
pearance drew plenty OF attention from
the crowd of people on the streets.
He is a small animal, not worth at the
outside over twelve dollars-he was sold
few months since for ten dollars-but
this lawsuit, occupying nearly week
before jury, with about sixty witnesses
on both sides, has brought his total cost
up to about $500-that is, reckoning the
costs on both sides, including lawyers
fees. The man who lost the suit not
only loses the bull, but as one dollar was
given to the plaintiff with the bull, the
loser will have the costs of the suit tc
pay, besides his own lawyers fees. Beef
comes high sometimes-especially bull
beef.-Hartford Courant.

Married on His Deathbed,

Wednesday Stroud Van Meter and Miss
Spencer were married at Marengo, Craw-
ford county, Ind, the bridegroom at the
time being on his deathbed. About ten
days ago Van Meter and two brothers
were injured by the premature explosion
of blast of dynamite while working in
aquarry near Marengo, his injuries con-
sisting of broken leg and arm, the loss
of an eye and internal injuries that will
almost certainly cause his death. The
wounded man and Miss Spencer had
been for some months betrothed, and
were only waiting for an improvement in
their financial circumstances to have the
ceremony performed. When the acci-
dent occurred the young woman insisted
that the ceremony be performed at once
in order that she might be at liberty to
care for her etrothed.-Louisville Cou-
rier-Journal. t@.3

a Long Sleep I'm sHesia.

A most peculiar case of prolonged sleep
is at present occupying the attention Of
medical circles in Germany. A miner
named Johann Latus is an inmate of the
hospital ut Myslowitz, i'll Silesia, where
he was admitted four months and half
ago. and since then all efforts towake
him have been fruitless. DR.. sAlBers,
the doctor attending him, is of the opin-
ion that the apparent sleep is really a
state of catalepsy, though medical science
has on record no previous case of such a
prolonged nature. He has arrived at
this conclusion on account Of all the
limbs being absolutely rigid. The ap-
pearance OF the man, however, betrays
no signs of this. The body lies quite
still, the breathing is regular, and there
is healthy color in the cheeks. In the
last few days the body has become much
less rigid, and the patient has even made
some slight movement, without, how
ever, the eyes opening or the condition
of apparent sleep being in any way dis
trrbed. In the four months and half
that the sleep has lasted the hair has in.
creased in length, but.the beard has re-
mained stationary. Nourishment to thu
extent of two or three 1iters of milk is
administered daily by a tube inserted
into the throat.-Vienna Letter.

A DALLAS CARPER.
A Returned Texan Who Does Not
Like Los Angeles.

DR.. G. Beaumont formerly lived in
Dallas, Texas, and came to Los Angeles,
where he tried to practice his pro-
fession, that of medicine, but found
it best at the end of three months to
return to Dallas, where he proceeded,
in the News of that city, to fill up half
column with about as many misstate-
ments about this city as could be got
into that space.
He gives long fairy story about the
Salton lake and its effect on the climate,
and then he jumps on the proposition
that this city is healthy. Mr.. Bryan, of
the firm of Bryan & Kelsey, was
talking about the article yesterday with
HERALD reporter, and gave the re-
porter some facts which in this connec.
tion are interesting. DIR. Beaumont
compares Dallas and Los Angeles as re.
CARDS the death rate as being cities
of the same size, when, as a
matter OF fact, Dallas has only
$4,000 population, and is very far from
being a health resort, fact which brings
to Los Angeles many who are sick and
thereby increases the death rate here
beyond what it naturally would be.
The doctor also found come fault with
the commercial situation here, yet &C.
cording to Mr.. Bryan, recently in Dallas
four failures have occurred of large
amounts, the four aggregating
$500, 900, yet in the past five
years all the failures in this city
would not aggregate that amount.
Another instance of the condition of
things in Dallas is the fact that a hotel,
which cost $500, 900, was recently sold
by the sheriff for 100000, and
there are now $4,000 vacant houses in
that city. As vacant house is rarity
in this city, as there have been no
failures here, as the merchants
are all prosperous, as the popula-
ton is growing constantly, as large
investments are constantly being made
here, and as everyone who is competent
generally succeeds here. DR.. Beaumont's
pessimistic opinion OF this city must be
ascribed to other causes than unbiased
opinion, or correct view of things.

a barrow of limestone he stumbled and
fell headlong into the burning furnace.
The furnace was Immediately damped
down, but nothing more was seen OF
him. The burial service held on the top

A Dollar for a Kiss.

In Geneva county recently jury by
it's verdict settled the value of kisses in
this state. A young fellow named Will
liam Horton was indicted for assault

free will and consent, and that he had
kissed her $50 times before. The jury
rendered verdict of guilty and assessed
fine of $3.50, stating that kisses in Gene
va were worth one dollar each.-Bir,

arms in enticing the non-union crew of
the America ashore, as some of the pa
pers stated. We as an America organ
ization of seamen, composed of hard
working. honest and respectable men.
organized for honest industrial purposes
deny any and every such statement.
We are charged with innumerable epi-
thets by the public in general. and
especially the Los Angeles Times and
Express. They would not recognize any
good or kind act, any more than they
have said of this trouble. We would
never receive any sympathy from the
public, if all were such as they. The
only motive of this organization is to
maintain seamen'srights. principles, fair
treatment and intellectual benefits.
We are not bullies or rowdies, or any of
that kind, and therefore do not
lay any claim to the slurs and
insults thrown at us by such gen.
tlemen. We are not terrorizing or over
riding the port of San Pedro, or any
other port on the Pacific coast, and
honorable residents of San Pedro will
testify to the fact. We are not working
detriment to the cause of capital, or
imposing upon capitalists. In regard to
some of the statements made by Deputy
Anderson, we cannot contradict them as
they are not fit to read. Our wages to
Nanaimo is $40 per month, and the non
union crew was going for $25, hence the
trouble. The men are down in San

any time. Knowing that you will advo-
cate this as labor cause, we remain,

San jose and the Angels to Meet
Tomorrow.
The coming game on Wednesday be-
tween San Jose and Los Angeles is all
the talk in baseball circles. The fans
all over the state are anxious to find out
how strong the Los Angeles team really
is. Harper will in all probability be in the
box for the visitors, while Roach will do
the twirling for the home nine. Harper
may be a'better pitcher than either
Tanning or Hoffman, which is very
mooted question, but it is the general
opinion that he will be treated very
much as the twirlers of the San Fran
cisco club were last Saturday and Sun
day. The San Joses are expected to ar
rive this afternoon.
