MAYNARD VICTORIA.
A Young Oetoroon Girl and Her Esoa
pades.

A Young Oetoroon Girl and Her Esca-
pades.
Victoria Sans, an octoroon girl, aged
IA years, was arrested by Officer Wood
ward last evening and taken to the CEN
tral police station. She lives with her
mother at BAL Jackson street, when at
home, but puts in most OF her time at the
house OF her married sister, Mrs. Smith,
who lives on Wall and Seventh streets.
Victoria visited her, married sister last
evening, and her mother and another
daughter visited the house to endeavor
to get her to return home.
The incorrigible and wayward Vic.
toria, Officer Woodward was informed,
was found in one Of the rooms under
suspicious circumstances. This is de-
MED by Victoria. The girls brother-in-
law, Mr.. Smith. telephoned to the GEN.
tral police station for an officer.
When Officer Woodward arrived upon
the scene he found the family on the
street corner, near the house, indulging
in general family quarrel. He was in
formed of the alleged waywardness of
the girl, when he gave her the option of
returning home with her mother or be-
ing taken to the police station and sent
to the reform school. She chose the
latter

case in point. This will provide that
city with university buildings superior
to any on this continent. But when the
visitor to Los Angeles asks where our
art gallery or our public library
building is, the question is slightly
embarrassing. Here is magnificent
chance for some millionaire, an oppor-
tunity such as rich man seldom has OF
raising his own memorial and endearing
himself to his fellow citizens. There are
dozens of men in this city who could
easily give the people a fine public
library building and never miss the
money. Is is charitable to assume that
they have not heretofore done this
because they have not had the matter
brought to their attention. 1t is to be
hoped that this little special plea for
the people will not go unheeded by
some one of our local Rockefellers.

Ir is said that an effort will be made
to induce the legislature to pass an act
pensioning all teachers who have been
employed in the public schoole, after
they reach an age where their services
are NO longer useful. Why confine the
benefit to the teachers; why not include
the policeman, the fire department, the
Office holders, and the disappointed pol
iticians? The matter OF pensions is all
right in its place, but its place is not
every place; this proposition is one
that the American people have learned
thoroughly.

THE senatorial contest at Sacramento
appears to have come to an end. No
particular change occurred yesterday in
the situation at Sacramento, and the
cumming up seems to indicate, beyond
a doubt, that Hon. Stephen M. White
will be elected on the first ballot. This
lie as it should be, and carries out the
HRRALD's predictions exactly. This
incident is a rebuke TO those pes
simista who have been shouting to the
effect that no man could be elected SEN
ator without ''sack, " and that the sem
ate is u milionsires' club. Mr.. White
is man OF very moderate means, whose
capital mas consisted of his integrity,
his brains and his Democracy. His elec-
tion will De most encouraging political
sign, indicative of fact which profes-
sionai politicians and ward heelers often
forget, that the will OF the people is very
apt to rule.

PAsADENA's annual fete, which is eu-

roses, was an interesting entertainment
yesterday, particularly to easterners.
They had the pleasure on the second
day OF January OF witnessing a remarka-
Bile out-of-door floral display. and a
series OF races, in what would at their
homes be called perfect June day. AS
matter of fact, however, there are no
June or any other days on the other side

THE street car service of Los Angeles
was yesterday made more convenient by
the inauguration of transfer arrange
ment between the Pacific and Temple
street cable systems and the Main street
and Agricultural park horse car line.
This is move in the right direction,
and should be considered as simply ten
tative. When, as should and doubtless
will be the Gaze, a man can transfer
from the electric to the cable lines for
one fare the Los Angeleho will have for
five cents ride which, for beauty and
extent, cannot be matched anywhere

opera house at an early hour last evening,
the place being packed to see The Old
Homestead. The play is familiar to
Los Angeles audiences, but it abounds
with so many faithfully portrayed scenes
of real life, and brings out go many
of those touches OF nature which arouse
the best part of the spectators being,
that it is always welcome.
The company is an excellent one, and
the play 10 mounted with great care and
attention to detail.
The double quartette drew out unlim-
tied applause, and had to respond to
numerous encores. The scenery is very
effective, and, all in all, the play is well
worth seeing.

FOR, EASTER.

The word or name Easter is sup
posed to have been derived trem au
old hoaihen goddess, who was wor-
shipped by the ancient Germurs, be.
fore the Christian era, and whose au.
niversnry WAS celebrated ut the re-
turn of the spring time OF every sue.
ceeding year, and it is remarkable
coincidence that the Saviour of the
world was crucified and rose from
the dead just ut the time of one of
those heathen Easter festivals. In
all countries where Christianity has
been known aud taught. the word
Easter has been retained and has be-
come celebrated, not as IL heathen
festival, but as yearly anniversary,
commeinorating the resurrection OF
our Lord aud Savior Jesus Christ.
In some of our modern churches
there are magnificent displays of
pomp aud extrnvngance on these oc-
casionS notice particularly the Ro.
man Catholic church, tho costly prep
nration for the festival, the elaborate
encharistical service, the IIass, the
priestly absolution. the worship of
the Virgin Mary, the counting of
beads. the wearing of crosses, the
costly and showy array of Bishops,
Cardinals anl Prize SITS, and other u,
ders, aud the thousand and one ex.
ercises which are participated in by
the devotees of that church. Next
i'll order comes the ritnalistic churcli
"r the high church party, as some
call it. There is also great prepara.
ton made in their churches for this
celebration, such ~ the ritnalistic
rendiugs, transubstantintion, lighting
of cnndles through the day, the burn
ing o. Incense, choisters dressed in
white gowns and other exercises,
which appear, to the outsider, anus
ing and foolish. Now wa rench the
evangelical or the reformed and Prot
estant Episcopal church, in whose
churches we will see at this festival
time, floral decorations, aymbolicnl
representations, and hear it's benuti-
fnl service of songs, chants and an
tiie'ns ana appropriate prayers and
scriptural readings, and every one
who enters into these services devo
tionally will be benefited thereby.
/ We come next to the dissenting
church, or those churches which do
not give their assent to ritualisnl, the
reading Of prayers, vestlnent wear,
ing and other ceremonies and fash
ions, which pertain to tho aforena,n
ed church, but whose doctrines and
exercises affect the spiritual and emo
tiona! part of the human family, aud,
excepting few who teach and
preach the unscripturnl doctrine OF
bapti.mal regeneration, or that a sim
ner can be saved only through bap
tism, thereby ignoring experimental
religion. all other Christian churches
teach the doctrines of repentance to
wards God, faith i'll Jesus Christ and
the living of ooedicnt lives, as the
sum aad substance of the Christian
ity of the New Testament.
