THE SEVENTH TO PARADE.
Col. sohriebsr's Orders About the Giori-
fous Fourth.

Col. schrieber's Orders About the Giori-
ious Fourth.
The following order has been issued
by Col. w. G.. Schrieber of the Seventh
regiment, N. G.. c.:
In pursuance of section 2018 political
code, the field, staff, band and the sew
eral companies OF this regiment, will
parade, in fatigue, in their respective
localities on July 4th, 1898.
Company commanders will issue the
necessary orders in accordance herewith,
and must use their best endeavors to
insure a full attendance, and report to
these headquarters not later than July
9th.
The field, staff, band and company's
A, G., and f. will report at the Armory,
Los Angeles, at 8 80 am.
1t is earnestly hoped that employers
will appreciate the necessity of allowing
the members in their employ the time
necessary to comply with the above
section OF the state law, and that all
mem bers will be possessed of the neces-
gary esprit de corps to obey this order,
that they may make showing on this
national holiday creditable to them
selves and to the organization to which
they belong.
1t would be gratifying to the COM
manding officers OF the regiment, q
means for promoting additional interest
among the members, and show patri-
otic, iaw-abiding, generous and kindly
spirit on the part OF business men, ii
they would allow those members of the
regiment in their employ leave OF ab-
sence for sufficient time to obey the
foregoing order.
The members give their time and in
many instances their money TO promote
the building up Of the regiment, and the
business man should at least show a
little interest in it's welfare, because if
through any unforeseen emergency it
would be necessary to call them out for
service, he would be the one who would
principally reap the advantage.

THE BLACK CANON.
THE DARING UNDERTAKING OF
CAPTAIN MELLON. gw
His Plan Is to Ascend by Means of
Rings, Ropes and Capstan.
1t is Not "a New
Project.

Captain j. A. Mellon, who for many
years has been running steamers on the
Colorado river from Yuma as far up as
the Grand cafion and into it for a long
distance, is at the Lick, gays the San
Francisco Chronicle. Travel is pretty
brisk on the river this year, he says,
and hecsrse of this he will soon push the
steamers forward through the famous
black eafIon, where hitherto they have
rarely ventured, and even then only
when all the conditions were most favor
able. However, the captain has hit on
an unique plan to surmount the giant
cascades. He has caused great steel
staples to be driven in the sides of the
frowning rock cliffs. In these are stout
iron rings. Ropes are run through these
when the steamers arrive, and by the
aid OF steam cspstan on board the
steamer ia enabled to plow her way for
ward.
1t is dizzy undertaking, but Capt.
Mellon is convinced that it can be made
success. There the gorge and the
cascade are exceedingly wild.
1.-THE Black cafion," said Captain
Mellon, ''is 40 miles through in one
place before the sun shines on the
depths. The walls are 1000 feet high,
or we'll on to mile. In the Grand
csfion, where the river is 300 feet wide,
the walls are 5000 feet high, but they
are l3 miles across at the top-that is,
from wall to wall. But in the frowning
Black csflon, where the river is 800 feet
wide, the walls run up 1000 feet and are
narrower at the top than at the bottom.
At least that is go in many places. You
see, therefore, what kind of place it is
to get through.
"The caflon commences at El Dorado
cafion, in Lincoln county, New, and
runs for 40 miles to the north in the
came county to what is known as the
Vegas wash. From there we will go on
up to the Virgin river, and on up to
Riovi!le. the old Mormon settlement.
From there on the Mormons hold sway
clear up to Salt Lake.
"a number OF mining camps are being
opened up along the route. IL is an
extremely wild country, but promises to
develop great interests in many places. ;"
Captain Mellon is here on a brief BUSH
ness trip. He has had many adventures
on the frontiers, has fought Indians,
been almost famiahed at times on the
desert, and altogether is a typical early
Californian. The first steamer to be
taken up is the Mojave.
1t is safe to apend to the above that
this is merely the resumption of naviga-
ton on the Colorado river as far up as
Virgin river, as there are probably
dozena OF Angelefos who have made
this trip with Capt. Jack Melon many
times.

ST. HILDA'S HALL.
THE CLOSING Eek EXCUSES OE THAT
POPULAR SCHOOL.
The Ending of Highly Success ful
School Year The Students
Show r High Degree of
Proficiency.

The closing exercises OF st. Hilda's
hall at Glendale were given last Wednes-
day evening, celebrating the conclusion of
highly successful year in the history of
this we'll known school for young women.
A large number of Los Angeles people
came out on the special train to be pres
eDt at the entertainment. The beauti-
ful grounds were lighted with Numerous
Japanese lanterns, and the main ball of
the building was tastefully decorated
with bamboo and Yucca. The large
school room WAS brilliant with green
foliage and white flowers, the latter be-
ing chiefly roses, huge poppies and OLE
anders. the whole presenting picture
of most harmonious coloring.
The Lords prayer chanted by the
school opened the evening 8 programme.
Following this Moszkowski's Valse Bril-
liante. for eight hands, was rendered in
brilliant manner By the Misses Oliver,
Miller. Whitaker and Hotsun. A vocal
solo, Masks and Faces, (Molley), was
given by Miss Hotsun with a charm and
grace wholly her own.
Miss Maud Chamberlain read an
essay. A Glance into a Magic Mirror,
which pictured in an original manner
the world as it will appear in the Utopia
OF thousand years hence.
Next on the programme was piano
solo, The Spring Song of Mendessohp.
This was given by Miss Jscqueline OH
yer OF Ensenads in delicate and ex-
pressive manner.
Victor Hugo's lie Sommiel was deliv-
cred by Miss Katherine Kirkpatrick,
her accent showing the most careful
training and patient study.
The first half of the programme was
completed by the singing of chorus,
Springs Return, by Abt. This was
given by the class in bright and spirit
ed manner.
Part second was opened with the vocal
duett, D Vert Thou in the Cold Blast
Miss Josephine Haskins' powerful con-
tralto showed to great advantage and
reflected great credit on her teacher,
Miss Boynton, who assisted her.
Next Miss Lolita Miller gave very
successful rendition of The First Taran-
telle, by f Fl. Sherward.
Robandi's beautiful composition, ALA
Stella .Confdente. was sung by Miss
Jsequeline Oliver. Miss Oliver has a
high soprano voice of lovely quality, and
she rendered the solo with style and
finish. The banjo duet OF the Misses
Jessie and May Kimble was one of the
features of the evening and called forth
great applause from the audience.
A most amusing class prophecy-A
message from the man in the moon
was set of rhymes written by the class,
and pictured the fate of each girl. This
was read by Miss Jean Devine in capti-
waiting manner.
The chorus, Autumn Leaves, by Abt,
was followed by the vocal solo, Forget
Ne Not, sung by Miss Boynton.
The evenings entertainment proved
most delightful and reflected great
credit on the faculty. Later AN informal
reception was held, and teachers and
pupils showed their social qualities
were as charming and attractive as their
intellectual.

The Goldau State,

deoked her building with flowers and
precious stones. She filled her building
with flowers and fruIts. and with all the
glorified products which make OF her
really the Golden state. There were the
usual speeches, all worshipping at the
same shrine, all ready to swear by the
Golden state, all ready to pity the people
OF every other state that they cannot
have homes in California, and all done,
too, with a great-heartedness and
generosity which were most win
some to the visitors. California is
all right. She is the great state of this
union. The rest OF them are all second
class by comparison. She has hardly
yet begun in her career, and yet there
10 no other state which makes any such
a display as California. OF course, 9TH
ers can have richer manufactured goods,
more works of art, but in the natur al
things out OF which men forge fortunes,
not one of them compares with her.

gold enough to make every one Of her

could be kept at home and put in circula-
ton. STILL California has only just
begun. Wait until all her rivers are
turned, all her arabic land utilized. and
then we shall zee state which will be

France is among the nations of Europe;

SEWER PIPE TONGUES.
A Test Of Them Made Before the City
Council.

Test Of Them Made Before the City
Council.
Yesterday afternoon, shortly after 2
O'Clock, test was made at Dodge's lum-
Der mill OF the strength and staying
power between the Register-Darcy
tongue and the wooden tongue.
The two different tongues were at
tnched to two sections of wooden pipe,
similar to that which will be used in
the outfall sewer.
All the members of the city council,
in addition to other city officials, were
present. The test was to find how
much pressure the wooden pipes would
resist to the square inch before the
tongues. as the clamps which join the
ends of the planks together are called,
would burst.
At first the water was pumped into
the pipes by hand, but it escaped so
rapidly through the seams between the
planks that such mode of finding the
strength had to be abandoned.
A fire engine was then brought into
reouisition, and succeeded in bursting
the wooden tongue under a 4O-pound
pressure. The Register and Darcy tongue
held, and proved itself to be the better
one OF the two.
The iron bands which surround the
pipe and hold the different pieces OF
plank in place are fastened with the
Register & Darcy clamp. This was alec
subjected to the same pressure. It
stood remarkably we'll. with the excep-
tion that on both sides the small pro-
iecting ends broke off The clamp is q
cast iron one, and it was the general
opinion that much better results would
be obtained from one of mslleable iron.
The engine which supplied the water to
the pipes was compelled to use long
line of hose, the. pressure on which at
the engine was $50 pounds, while it only
amounted to 40 at its destination. 1t
was great day for the city officials, and
quick movements and artful lodges were
the order OF the hour If impromptu
shower baths we're to be avoided.

LOOK OUT FOR FIRE.
Some Good Advice Preparatory to tn
Fourth.

Some Good Advice Preparatory to the
Fourth.
The Pacific Insurance union has
issued circular of advice regarding the
danger of fire on the Fourth of July.
The following paragraphs should be
needed:
In view OF the near approach of the
Fourth of July with its attendant con-
flagration hazard, it is desired to call
attention to the following simple pre-
cautions, some of which can be adopted
to advantage by everyone.
II you have private fire apparatus see
that the hose, fire pals and extinguish-
ers are in serviceable condition. Ii you
have none, this is an excellent time to
30 protect your property.
If you have small hose, attach it in the
most available place. Many kinds OF
business require the use of pals, tanks
and barrels, while stores, stables and
dwellings ail have pals in use. Fill
these with water and dispose them adj
vantageously during this dangerous
time.

basement doors, remove all rubbish, and
If possible close them over temporarily
to keep ont fireworks.
Wet down wooden sidewalks and
planked areas, also under open sidewalk
gratings, and use water enough TO run
through the cracks 80 as to wet the chips,
papers, etc., underneath.
Remove all packing boxes, goods in
cases and rubbish from sidewalks, areas
and roofs. II any boxes are necessarily
left outside, pile them snugly and see
that no packing material is exposed,
We call upon agents in cities and
towns to ascertain by actual trial that
their FIRE departments. fire engines, hose
and water supply are in condition for
prompt and effective use.
Petitions should be presented to the
proper authorities to rigidly enforce ex-
isting regulations on the subject. and,
where necessary, adopt such additional
safeguards and precautions as will be
likely to prove most effectivein avertiug
peril to insurance capital and needless
destruction to property.
Let no agent rely upon some other
agent or agents to do this work, but
take immediate steps for united action

sonally without delay.
