Events-Local Notes.
LONG BEACH, Aug. 5.-Since the HER
AID commenced publishing the daily
happenings OF Long Beach. the people
of this place have felt kindly towards
this new enterprise, and all of the prin-
cipal business houses seeing the benefit
to be derived from judicious advertising,
have inserted their business cards in
the Long Beach directory which follows
the daily report, and the majority of
the few who are not in it, will probably
soon follow the example of their more
enterprising contemporaries.
A STRAY REGISTRY CLERK.
The registration is progressing salts
factorily. 1t seems, however, that
another registry clerk appeared yester-
day on the outskirts of town, and tried to
get some names from this place. He
came from the country, somewhere, and
was clearly out of his precinct, and as
he received intimation that there was
no room for him here, he left for parts
unknown.
SOCIAL EVENTS.

up to Terminal island yesterday morn

returned and attended in a body the

News and Personal Notes from that
Thriving Place.
ALHAMBRA, Aug. 4.-Now is the time
that the vineyards should show eigns OF
the vine disease if they are going to.
To all appearances they are not; the
vines in Sunny Slope are in excellent
condition, and are heavily loaded with
fruit. The same may be said of all the
vineyards in this vicinity.
Mr.. @. @. Steel is threshing grain on
Mr.. Mayberry's place.
Last week the hay press of Mr.. An
tonic Perez burned, together with some
hay belonging to Mr.. Albert Gibbs.
This is the second press belonging to
Perez that was destroyed by fire on the
same place within one month. Both
fires started about midnight.
A small eight-paged weekly sheet,
yclept The Alhambra, about a week ago
egotlstically claimed to supply the ma
terial for the Alhambra correspondence
to the big dailies of the city. In the
last issue the editor gives full vent to
his peevishness and spleen when he
says: "All at once this envious indiv-
ual attempts to do dirt to home enter
prise. Comment is unnecessary"
Now, who is the envious person, the
correspondent for the big dalies," who
causes this all important editor to be-
come go touchy, because there were
few items published in the Los Angeles
papers? just enough to let the country
know that there is such place as Alham-
bra, and that Alhambra has newspa-
per.
Mr.. j. J. Bodkin is deputy regietry
clerk and is prepared to register all who
are entitled.
The day for the party at Mrs. May
berry's, is not Thursday, as was men
toned in my last letter, but Friday even
ing, August 9Th.
For the last few days huge clouds of
smoke have been rising from the noun
talns to the north, and for day or two
a large fire was burning in the San Ca
briel cafion.

ing of the board of directors of the Los

A discussion followed, regarding the
lack OF books, in the circulating depart
ment, this season of the year always
creating special denaand for lighter
class of reading, and the fact that the
library was entirely unable to meet the
demand, led to many complaints on the
part of the public. Q

While on n private visit some time
ago to Lord Brooke at Easton Lodge.
Dunmow, Essex, the Prince of Wales
met with an amusing incident. The
railway station usually used by visitors
TO the lodge is at the little village Of
Takeley. No notice whatever of the
princes expected arrival was given to
the station master, who, it so happened,
had only been recently appointed to
the Office His royal highness was met
by Lady Brooke, who preceded her
royal guest to the Phaeton waiting to
convey them to the lodge.
Upon arriving at the barrier the
prince was brought up all standing by
the station master pcremptorily de
manding of him his ticket Amused
evidently at the officials behavior, and
wishing to have little fun at his ex-
pense, the prince said that he had
lost it.
Then you will have to pay the fare :
said the station master determinedly.
AT this point Lady Brooke returned,
a and taking in the situation said to the
astounded official
THE princes ticket is all right.
The incident is standing joke with
Lord Brooke and his guests, and his
royal highness never visits the estate
without being asked
where's your ticlzetT
He nightly enjoys the fun, and
thinks that the station master is a very
faithful servant of the railway com.

when the ordinary will not be accepted,
when the best IL demanded. Our grand
fathers were content 10 travel in stage
Coz ches, to live IN cabins and receive a
mail once week. We demand palace
ear, tasteful homes and daily communi-
cation with the world. IL is the RAPID
transit age; the age OF the telegraph and
the telephone. A man speaks to day
and the entire world reads his words to-
morrow morning. There are but twenty.
four hours in day, but forty-eight
hours are crowded intoit.
We all know how we have advanced
materially. Do we reali2e how we have
advanced scientifically? More than in
any other manner. Indeed, it has been
the advancement in science which has
caused the advancement in material
things. The discovery OF steam per-
mitted the railroad and the steamboat.
The development of electricity made
made possible the telegraph and the
telephone, go that the development of
the sciences has been the real cause Of
all modern advancement.
! We will take, for example, one de-
partment of science, but the most i'm
portant department. One which affects
our very lives and happiness. Formerly
the treatment of human ills was made q
matter of snpers tition, of incantaton
4 the same as it is by the medicine men
OF the Indians to-dsy. Gradually emerg-
ing from such blindness, 1t was still a
matter OF bigotry, of folly What people
must have suffered in those days can
scarcely be imagined. They were bed,
they were cupped, thew were leeched,
they were subjected to every device
whereby their vitality could be reduced
and their lives endangered. 1t is almost
wonder that the race survived.
There has been an absolute revolution
! in the practice of medicine and in the
/ tire atment of human ills. Instead Of un-
dermining the vital forces by cupping
and bleeding, the vitality JIG now sus-
tanned in every posi- BILE manner. In
stead of tearing down we seek to build
up. Instead of increasing misery we
seek to create happiness.
But the greatest advancement in med
ical science has heen made by discovery.
Harvey could afford to endure the ridi-
Guile of the world for revealing to it the
grand discovery of the circulation Of the
blood. Jenner might be ostracized. but
millions have benefited by his discov-
cry of vaccination Pasteur lived in a
more enlightened age and escaped ridi-
Guile, while the world received the bene-
fit which his discoveries have brought.
Koch, although forced to reveal his dis
covery before it's perfection, will be re-
vered by future generations.
The discoveries of these great men
