The Turnverein Germsnia yesterday
celebrated the laying OF the corner stone
of its new building on Main near Third
street.
This excellent society will have for its
home cne of the most complete and
handsome club houses on the Pacific
coast, and will, without doubt, increase
its usefulness. Few institutions have a
better effect on the people associated
with it. and fewer still are so educative in
a desirable way. The Turnverein mem
bers are all good citizens and their use-
fulness as such. is vastly increased by
the even and progressive development
of muscle and mind, as consequence of
their con nnection with their society. Be-
sides it's gymnaetic features. the organ
ization provides for instruction in music
al, dramatic and artistic lines, and
possessessociel features OF charming
character.
The society is to be congratulated on
the steady progress it has made from its
organization, and commended for
what it has directly and indirectly done
for the city.

SOCIE

DIR. and Mrs. Knepper gave very
pleasant reception Friday evening at
their residence on Beaudry avenue, in
honor of Prof. Roche of Washington, d.
@. The professor is one of the most &C
complished elocutionists in the country,
and delighted the company with num-
ber of recitations, some of the best being
of his own composition. His recitation,
of The Raven was especially merito RI.
Gus. Prof. Roche was personal friend
of Edgar Allan Poe, and learned from
the poet himself how to recite his mas
terpiece. The professors rendition OF
Shandon Bells. Darius Green and an
original production entitled The First
Shall Be Last were also admirably re-
cited.
Miss Jessie, the charming daughter,
and Earl, son OF DR.. and Mrs. Knepper,
added to the evenings entertainment
some delightful instrumental music.
Some prominent residents of Pasa-
dena were among the guests and all
were pleased with the opportunity of
meeting Prof. Roche, who ia most
scholarly and afable gentleman. He
came to Los Angeles from Washington,
d. c., about year ago, on the recon-
mendation OF his physician, and during
his brief residence here has entirely re-
covered his health. He cannot cay
enough in praise of the climate of Los
Angeles; he feels assured that he owes
his life to his coming here, and as q
consequence he will make this city his
permanent home.
The following persons were among
DR.. and Mrs. Knepper's guests: Hon.
and Mrs. Delos Arnold, Mr.. Ralph Ar
mold, Mr.. and Mrs. Rosenbaum, Pasa-
dena Mr.. and Mrs. M. l.. Rodgers, An

Mr.. Miles Hannas was the recipient
Friday evening of birthday surprise
party, planned and cvrried out by his

at an early hour at the residence of Mr..
Powers, on Magnolia avenue, and pro-
ceeded stealthily to Mr., Hannas' house.
Some of his friends induced him to take
a walk over the hills, and when he re-
turned he was genuinely surprised when
greeted by the young people. Mrs
Hannas had prepared tempting refresh
ments, which, with games and music,
occupied the attention of the guests
during the evening.

THEATRICAL MATTERS.

Los ANGELES THEATER.-On Thursday,
Friday and Saturday, with a matinee,
The Span of Life will hold the boards.
The North American of Philadelphia
speaks as follows of the play:
"The Span OF Life, play entirely
new to Philadelphia thester goers, was
produced last evening at the Empire
theater, and proved to be a drama Of
the ultra-sensationai stripe, containing
many vivid tableaux. The Span OF Life
was produced originally in London, and
is named among the successful plays OF
recent date. The story told treats OF
the poisoning of child by its step
brother in order to secure his fortune.
interviewer with the many events and
situations portrayed is q love theme. In
the early part of the drama the wicked
thrive, but, as usual with melo dramas,
virtue is in the end revealed and crime
punished. There are many forcible situa-
tions in the Span OF Life. One of the
most novel is where the scene of action
ia laid in Africa. Tho heroine, who is
accompanied by several men who were
formerly gymnasts, 10 pursued by Arabs.
In order to save her they mount on
each othar's shoulders and allow them
selves to drop across an abyss, thue
forming living bridge, over which the
heroine and her charge cross swiftly.
The Span of Life may be said to have
made a decided hit, and enthusiastic
applause marked the close of each sue
ceeding act.

A VERY TRAGIC DEATH.
SHE CHOSE THE AGONY FROM
TAKING CARBOLIC ACID.
The Evidence at tho Inquest Yesterday
Would Indicate That She Was suf-
ferring from Temporary
Derangement.

An inquest was held yesterday by
Coroner CateG upon the remains OF Mrs.
Elise Herminghaus, aged 40. who died
on Saturday evening from the effects of
q aell-administered dose of carbolic acid.
The witnesses were the deceased's
husband, niece and DR.. Kurtz, the in
quest being held at sharpe's undertake
ing rooms or South Spring street.
Mre. Herminghaus' niece. girl OF
16, stated that she was in the kite hen
with her mother preparing supper,
when Mrs. Herminghaus went outside.
The witness became alarmed at her
long absence and going outside saw the
deceased lying on the floor and writhing
in pain.
She rushed outside and called her
uncle. tge &gA
Herminshsus stated that on being
called by his niece he hastened to the
place and found his wife insensible.
He took her inside and sent for DR..
Kurtz.
The wife had been acting a little
strangely OF late, but not 30 much as to
cause any doubt as to her sanity.
She was worried over his (the wit
ness's) sickness, and had been in bad
health herself for some weeks. She
had no other troubles that witness was
aware Of, and had never suggested COM
mitting self destruction.
When he found his wife he also saw
an empty bottle, which formerly con-
tanned carbolic acid, on the ground by
her side. The acid had been purchased
in Chicago by his wife for medicinal
purposes. The deceased was of German
nationality and 40 years OF age.
DIR. Kurtz was called and said that he
found Mrs. Herminghaus in hopeless
condition. The condition of the de-
ceaeed's throat and the empty bottle
were evidences Of the means she had
taken to end her existence.
The jury at the conclusion of the pro-
ceedngs returned verdict of death
from dose OF carbolic acid, taken with
suicidal intent.
The interment will take place this
morning in Rosedale cemetery.

AN UNBIASED ATTACK.

The San Francisco Chronicle of Sat.
urday lent it's columns apparently to
the enemies of President M. H. Sher.
man of the Consolidated Electric Rail-
way company of this city. by publishing
lot of twaddle, and libeilous allegations
about him, which have been prompted
for come time past by y'certain influences
inimical to Gen. Sherman and his inter-
ests.
The allegations were all dieproved
long ago, and il would seem difficult to
explain their being revamped and pub
lished new from any ethical newspaper
point of view. The Chronicle has the
courtesy it is true, to print statement
from Gen. Sherman about the matter,
which is printed in another column OF
this issue, including statement from
an insurance adjuster on one OF the
points referred to.
Gen. Sherman came here at time
when all business interests were de-
pressed, he at once launched into the
tremendous enterprise of the con-
struction of the electric railway system,
thereby causing the expenditure here OF
cash amounting to millions, and keep.
ing in profitable employment hundreds
of men. The value of his efforts to this
city can hardly be overestimated.
AT various times ''stories" have been
offered to reporters here by parties in
imical to the man and his work. These
were allegations OF purported facts re-
fecting on Gen. Sherman's character.
They were Investigated and found to be
the promptings of jealous envy or
hatred, and without foundation. and &C.
cordingly were not printed.
Some few weeks ago a well-known
member of the staff OF the San Francisco
paper which now publishes these asser-
tions came to this city and commenced
to ''work up" the matter. AS coon as
Gen. Sherman learned what the reporter
was here for, he extended to him every
possible means OF investigation, threw

IT IS atnusing-indeed it provokes the
hearty contempt of wild, woolly western
people-to see the great eastern expon-
ente of public opinion, especially those
of the Republican persuasion, rail and
rave against the silver senators, calling
them obstructionists, enemies of the
public welfare, and horse thieves and
scoundrels, in a metaphorical sense,
and then turn round and vehemently
urge resort to every known parlia-
mentary device whereby a minority in
congress can prevent the repeal of the
federal election or force law, so called.
In the one case, obstructive minor
ites." according to these pharisaic
brethren, are revolutionary and ought
to be exterminated: in the other, they
like Leonidas' band at Thermopole.
That modern Tartuffe, Senator Sherman,
talked big through his hat to the north
and east, in the same strain, last Tues
day: ''Break down this barrier now
maintained by the United States SEN
ate; break up this violent and insolent
obstruction to the will of the majority"
ETC., said ne. Let the country wait till
the Tucker repeal bill gets into the SEN
ate, and then it will see the rantanker-
GUS senator eat his own words, for then
he will valiantly defend obstructive
minorities," that is. the kind that hap
pen to include honest John Sherman
and his pious coadjutors. The deter
mined defense by minorities of cause
which these gentry believe in is glorious;
otherwise it ia infamous and not to be
tolerated: The case bsing altered, that
alters the case. Obstreperous minor
