Acids for Tool Sharpening.

A French journal calls the attention
OF mechanics to the fact that, though all
dilute mineral acids are adapted for tool
sharpening-say ten parts of sulphuric
acid hydrate to 100 parts of water-the
desired end is really more quickly at
tanned if portion of the sulphuric acid
be substituted by nitric acid, a suitable
mixture being one liter of water, fifty
grams of Chill saltpeter and sixty cubic
centimeters of concentrated sulphuric
acid.
This compound dissolves " grains of
metal within ten minutes from an iron
surface of one square centimeter. Dis
solution is slower where sulphuric acid
alone is used. Steel is acted upon in the
same manner as iron, with the excep-
ton that the process is not so rapid, be-
cause of the polished surface becoming
covered with thin deposit of separated
carbon

this and tomorrow evenings. Miss Rice
will present double bill, Offenbach's
melodious and merry operetta, The Lit

has been successful in her tour of Cali
fornia, and there is every reason to be-

one Of the largest audiences of the

AN ENLARGED FIELD OF USEFULNESS.

Our readers have undoubtedly noticed
that yesterday the HERALD greeted its
readers in an enlarged form and with
many improvements, not the least
amongst which were the serrated edges.
which show that henceforth it is to be
printed on Hoe perfecting press. We
prefer to indulge in no bombastic pro.
LESSONS as to our intentions in the
future. These are best exemplified in
performance instead of promise. Suffice
it to say that we are now provided with
press facilities Chat will enable us to ex-
ploit to the utmost the very fair news
paper field that lies before us. OF
course, our readers should be informed
that the best results cannot be expected
from any press during the first two or
three days of its erection. 1t has to get
acquainted with its surroundings, go to
speak. The ink fountains must be ad-
justed, the blankets must become
smooth, the tapes must be accustomed
to their proper places, the pressmen
must become familiar with their new
companion, the running gear must be-
come responsive; in fine, there are
score OF things, most important of which
is setting the "color," before splendid
press can do beautiful work. The HER
AID is an old time favorite of the people
OF Los Angeles, city and county, and of
all Southern California as well, and we
know that our whole population will

Justice Bartholomew Settles n Case of
scelding Neighbors.
Monsieur Guillaume Monlon and Mr..
Charles Roberts again ventilated their
old-time spites in the township Justices
court yesterday, all on account of the
lots in Dell Vale that give so many graz
ing opportunities to cows and horses.
The feud between the two men is of an
old date and is presented in court quite
often.
Yesterday Mr.. Roberts and MIR.
Somerby, friend of his, explained how,
upon their attempting to remove Mon
Ions horse from a grazing ground
claimed by Roberts, Monlon had at
tackled the complainant with hammer.
Monlon's innings came in when he
showed that the hsmmerSwas merely
used as an instrument of defense against
the lariat pin welded by Roberts.
Between the two and the witnesses
the story became 80 confused that JUS
tice Bartholomew threw up the sponge.
He adjudged the defendant guilty, but
in fining him s25, refused to administer
the alternative of imprisonment. The
consequence ID that both are pleased

THE FIELD DAY RACES.

The Referee Has Decided Some Dis
puted Races.
Although the Athletic club held its
field day last Thanksgiving the referee
has given his decision in regard to the
two disputed races only within the past
few weeks.
The maiden 100-ysrd race was awarded
to L. W. Fox of Riverside, Ed German
getting second place.
The mile bicycle race, 2:35 class, will
be run again, at Athletic park, next Sat-
urday, between w. A. Burke, L, W.,
Fox and P. L. Abel.
1t Is to be run on q protest made by
Abel. He claims that in making the
last turn on the last lap he was crowded
out by the two other men. Fox had
the pole, Burke was next and Abel was
on the outside. In turning the two fret
were unable to hold to the inside of the
track and crossed in front of Abel, fore
ing him to cross to the inside to get
even with them again. The referee had
the option of declining the race or caus-
ing 1t to be run over. Mr.. Thayer was
in come doubt as to the affair, so he de-
cided that it is to be rerun. This will
give general satisfaction to the majority
OF people, as the race will then be de-
cided upon its merits.
There will also be mile bicycle race
between Joe Patrick, Tom Harmon.
Gratz Brown and Jay Hunter. The gem

being the author of the Homestead

have been intended to produce fatal

the plot entered into for the

this. their cause is weak one. 1t is
hardly probable, though, that many

Three or four of the Ventura business

ana fearless priest, with the result of a
good deal of excitement and heart burn
lngs on the part OF Catholics in New
York and elsewhere. The pope inter-
posed his peremptory veto on the arch
bishops action, and Mr.. McGlynn was
restored to his priestly functions. This
is in the genuine spirit of the modern
age, which is essentially democratic, a
fact which will be demonstrated very
strikingly before this century shall have
run the brief remainder of its course.
But the most remarkable interposi-
tion of the pope of late is in tie line of
extreme tolerance on the school oues-
tlon-an essentially democratic attitude.
A great and angry difference of opinion
had grown up between certain prelates
OF the American Roman Catholic
church on this and cognate questions,
and it is enough to say that the decision
OF the pope and of his apostolic dele
gate, Monsignor Satolli, has been in the
line opposed to bigotry. The pope car

tion in favor of the French republic
against the intrigues of the Royalists
has been of inestimable service to
PRESIDENT Carnot's government.
In the foregoing we have given a
brief hint of why there have
been no clamors over the ap-
pointment of Monsignor Satolli as
. delegate apostolic. Even in hide

AFTER FIVE LONG WEEKS.
The Jeff8ris Murder Trial Almost
Concluded.
Testimony Finished Yesterday. and
the Case Now on Argument
Before the Jury.

The hearing of testimony in the Jetteris
murder case was completed shortly alter
the court opened yesterday morning.
The witnesses were DR.. Wizard, Mrs. c.
Brasswell Ia sister of the defendant,
Jefferis. C. II. Davis and L. Viemeister.
Jefferls testified that on the morning OF
the 18th of December, 1892 when Officer
May said he recognized him across Sec
ond street, was so foggy that from his
engine-cab the light from the headlight
could scarcely be seen.
Witness Davis, one of the roundhouse
callers, testified that on several occasions
he found Jefieris asleep on his engine in
the roundhouse. He also said that Officer
May remarked to him, shortly after JEFF
feris' arrest, that it was funny that he
could not place him.
Viemeister is the man who was with
May on Tuesday when, as alleged by the
colored youth, a. I. Young, May made
certain statements regarding Jetferis in
his hearing He testified that in his con-
versation with May the latter made no
such statement as Young testified to.
The rest of the testimony was mostly
contradictions of statements made by
Mrs. O'Hern.
Charles T. Jones, of counsel for the
prosecution, then made the opening ar
gument. He spoke until the noon recess,
and resumming again at half-past l
O'Clock did not conclude until + o'clock
in the afternoon. He reviewed the testi-
mony from the outset and followed 1t
closely to the end. After summing up
the case he said that if, with the light be-
fore them, the Jurors should have reaS-
enable doubt of Jefferis' guilt, it would
be their duty to acquit him OF the awful
crime with which be was charged, which
really embraced three crimes-bigamy,
murder and arson.
In conclusion, Mr.. Jones said that he
had no doubt whatever of the guilt of the
accused, and that though the jury might
fail to agree with hiln-though Jefferis
might escape conviction, he could never
escape through life daily and nightly
visions of the unfortunate woman who
was so foully murdered and her body
burned on that eventful night at Brighton.
There were many ladies present
throughout yesterdays session, and
during Mr.. Jones' closing remarks, in
which he drew a vivid picture of the aw-
full tragedy, several who were personal
friends OF Miss Ayres We're moved to
tears.
General A. L. Hart began his argument
as soon as Mr.. Jones had concluded, and
spoke until the court adjourned, at 3
O'Clock. In his opening remarks he
congratulated the jury that the weary
farce which had kept them tor several
weeks was drawing to a close. He also
charged the prosecution with untairness
throughout the trial.
General Hart will probably conclude
his argument by noon to-day, though
that is uncertain. Ii he should, District
Attorney Ryan's closing address to the
jury may be finished and the case given
10 the jury tonight.
