The destitute will be allowed to sleep on

and in many cases the congregations are
arranging to furnieh breakfast each
morning The only other similar action
taken was following the great frs OF
October, 1871, when many Thousands

WELL then, we'll then, the Express
insists upon the fitness OF Mr.. George
Arnold as a member of the board OF
police commissioners because he is
friend oil Chief Glase. We are thus
made acquainted with the standard OF
fitness for this position set up by our
ever to be esteemed contemporary, al
ways first in the news when it don't get
left. We are not told. however, what
either Mr.. Arnold or the public think
about this standard of public ueeful-
ness thus set up. The probability is
that both think that the blunder is not
improved by the Expresses later

all likelihood, Chief Glass himself, who
has not lately been made the subject of
a special attack, would just as lief that
the appointment of Mr.. Arnold could
have been placed on some other ground

No doubt all the members of the police

The Masac muecale, an event long
looked forward to by all music lovers in
Los Angeles, will take place tonight at
the LOS Angeles theater.
1t is seldom that an artist OF the recog-
nized ability and genius of Mre. T.
Maeac is not seen more frequently in
public. That Los Angelefios are de-
termined not to lose the present oppor-
tunity is manifest by the interest taken
in tonight's performance.
Although Mrs. Masac has but seldom
appeared before Los Angeles audience,
her reputation as a great artist has for
some time been established in the east
and in Europe, where the few great
musicians OF the world acknowledged
her their equal.
The genius of her playing is manifest
in her rendering of the compositions on
tonight's programme.
Mrs. Masac is not content with pos
sessing the mere ability to play the
most difficult OF compositions. In itself
great task, but as great painter is
never content to only reproduce the
features OF his model, and also paints
the soul and mind upon the canvas, 30
Mrs. Masac enters into the spirit and
the feelings OF the great composers
whose work she 30 brilliantly renders.
This ia the last appearance of great
artist and resident of Los Angeles.
For both these reasons Mrs. Masac's
musicale tonight should be well at
tended.
The following programme embraces
some Of the most difficult OF known
classical COMPOSITIONS:
sonata, op. 27, No. l, Noonlight, Adagio,
allegt eLto presto agitato. Beethoven;
kondo CapricciosD. oP Ia Mendelssohn.

Where Pianos Are Taxed.

Pianos are taxed in Elizabeth and some
folk know are very wrathy thereat.
think that by taxing pianos Elizabeth
has placed itself i'll the very van of En-
lightment with the big z, for mark, aft
er all, it is not the instrument but the
player thereof that must pay the tax. If
the principle that warrants the tax is
faulty i'll any particular, it is i'll the fact
that the tax is not graded according to
the skill or want of skill of the player.
Had my way would tax certain pianos
i'll this city 800 year, and there are
others that would report to the board
OF health as nuisances that cried to
heaven for abatement. If PadereWski
would come to town with piano or to
play on an igssttrn% gst FL a.lssssady here,
woul. exempt it from taxation.
| bless without mental reservation
that law giver whose wisdom devised
the tax upon pianos. He should have 4
monument beside which the figure of
Liberty III the bay would be but IL
pygmy. He has perhaps the inaledic-
tons of half the piano torturers in
town, but Il honor him for the enc
mics he has made" for the pianists he
has suppressed. l contend, however,
that the tax should be assessed not ac-
cording to the value of the instrument,
but according to the skill of the player.
The method l suggest would be most
equitable, 1t seems to me, and would go
far toward meeting all the expenses Of
the city government. -EliZabeth On. J.)

Theory About Bee stings.

1t is fact not generally known that if
one holds his breath wasps, bees and
hornets can be handled with IMMUNITY.
The skin becomes stingproof and hold
ing the insect by the feet and giving her
full liberty of action you can see her
drive her weapon against the impene-
trable surface with force which lifts her
body at every stroke, but let the small
est quantity of air escape from the lungs
and the sting will penetrate at once.
have never seen an exception to this in
20 years observation. / have taught
young ladies with very delicate hands to
astonish their friends by the perform
ance of this feat, and I saw one so
severely stung as to require the services
of physician through laughing at a
witty remark of her sister, forgetting
that laughing required breath For a
theory i'll explanation am led to be-
licve that holding the breath partially
closes the pores Of the skin. My expert
ments in that direction have not been
exact enough obe of any scientific value,
but | am satisfied that it very sensibly
affects the amount of insensible perspira-
tion.-Science.
