A ABUILDIyG BUILT BY WOMEN

FORMAL OPENING LAST TUESDAY
A Large Gathering Attends
the Exercises.



The reception given last Tuesday by the
New-Centurv Club in honor of the open
ing of its elegant new club house, on
Delaware avenue between Jackson and
Van Buren, streets was probably never
exceeded in brilliance and enjoyment by
any social event in this city. The build
ing was flooded with light aad ayishly
and artistiCally adorned with eXotics. For
three hours it WAS thronged with lovely
women in magnificent gowns and
gentlemen in full dress. The. receiy-
ing committee, composed of Mrs.

club, Mrs. Job II. Jackson, the vice.

tary Miss Helen Worrell Clarkson,
the corresponding secretary Mrs. c.

Benjamin Nields, Mrs Frances 5. Gar.
rett Mrs Clement r. Smyth, Mrs.
William W. rusey and Mrs. Alfred d.
Warner, stood in the bay window of the
drawing room, where the guests from
distance were introduced. After paying
its respects to the committee the immense
gathering proceeded to inspect and admire
The exquisite construction and furnishing
of the elitiCe. subsequently there was
promenading and conversation. From
the gallery overlooking the stage in the
assembly room the Opera House orchestra
distoursed enchanting music. Refresh
mcnts were served at two large tables in
the drawing room.

The story OF the capture of the 6sh,
as related by one of the participants, is
thrilling one:
A fishing party of seven under the
charge of Alex Mathison. were recently
some five miles off the coast of Redondo,
in the sloop Helen, after barracuda.
One of their number saw floating in
the water what at first was taken for q
young whale. On approaching the OBJ
ject it was discovered to be large sum
fish lying on Its side, evidently enjoying
the sunlight On the nearer approach
OF the party the monster dived beneath
the boat coming to the surface few
yards on the other side. The boat was
Immediately turned aud bore down on
it once more. In its effort to escape the
fish was struck by the bow of the boat
and thrown upon its side.
The opportunity was seized to throw a
jew feh-hook into its mouth. Gaining
its equilibrium the gigantic fish sped
away, the reel humming with the 150
fathoms OF line carried with it. Then
came battle royal between the great
ocean rover and the fisherman. After
long maneuvering rope was made fast
under its fms and attached to the mast.
The boat was nearly dragged beneath
the waves by the violent efforts the
enormous fish made to escape. Finally,
under the pressure OF sail and by the ex-
hauetion Of it's own efforts it was towed
to Redondo and there hauled upon the
beach.
The fish has been carefully preserved
and mounted by Mr.. Shooter, and will
shortly be placed on exhibition as a sci
entific curiosity.
1t is a magnificent specimen of its
kind, measuring II feet from the dorsal
to the anal fin, feet 2 inches in length
and weighed in the neighborhood OF
1900 pounds.
When the fact is considered that this
is the largest specimen of its speuies
ever captured it will be of more than
passing interest to the general public
and of value to the scientific world.
The largest heretofore recorded ia
numbered in the collection of the British
museum, which measures feet q inches
in length, captured off the coast oil
Portland (Dorsetshue) in the year 1S46
This monster fish. technically the
orthagouscus mola, is native of the
temperate zone, both northern and
southern, and has been found as fal
south as Florida. where two were cap
tured at tho mouth of the St. Johns
river in the winter of 1874. 1t derives
its name fromthe habit of coming tc
the surface in fsir'westher, where it will
lay on its side basking in the sun, itl
huge frectoral fms rippling in the water
and in this position can be seen fol
miles glistening in the sunlight, the
conspicuous.fgur relieving the monot
ony of the watery desert with more
than novel interest, sight not soor
forgotten.

at reasonable price, but the best land
is all located. There lie good chance
in Owens valley for poor people to get q
good home for very little money. and to
get wealthy by and by. For people of
means there is very good chance for
investments.
The White mountains and the Fugo
mountains carry lots OF minerals.
The best mines which are operated at
present are the Defiance at Darwin
tsilver and lead), the Lookout (silver
and lead), the Georgia, opposite Bishop,
(goldJ and the Sacramento (gold).
There ie also an extensive mine OF the
finest Cavara marble opposite Lone
Pine in the southern part OF the valley !.
and large deposit OF borax in the
Salone valley, east OF the southern part
of Owens valley.
The Owens lake in the Southern land
OF Owens valley contains very high
percentage of soda. An English syndi-
cate bought all the land along the lake,
where they evaporate the water and
manufacture it into soda.

FIVE CASES OF DIPHrHERIA.

A Room In the Gates Street School
Ordered Closed.
The attention of the board OF health
having been called to cases of diphthe-
ria among the pupils in the Gates street,
East Los Angeles, public school, they
yesterday recommended to Superintend-
ent Brown the closing OF the room in
which the cases had occurred, and he
ordered the room closed for the
present.
Five cases of the disease have devel-
oped among the pupils OF the room re-
ferred to, OF which two have resulted
fatally. Albert Weob, who lived on
Sichel street, died November 1st, and
Thomas l. Cottrell. living at 11l3 Dow
ney avenue, died November 9TH. The
other three cases have not yet resulted
in any deaths.
A HERALD reporter saw the health
officer, DR.. Powers, during the after
noon and he said that he believed the
diphtheria originated in the Webb
house on Sichel street. 1t was a large
building and the premises are in foul
condition. There is much manure
there, foul cesspool, and the building
has very poor ventilation.
DIR. Powers does not believe that the
cases originated in the four-room Gates
street school building. The cases have
so far been confined to pupils in the one
room.
He says, however, that the sanitary
condition of this school is bad. The
plumbing is defective and there ia nc
vent in the cesspooi. He made these
matters the subject of special criticism
twice, and particularly in his last gen
eral report.
In spite of this, however, the defects
have not been remedied.
There should be rigid investigation
as to why this has not been done, ano
see who is to blame.
DR.. Powers has directed that if any
more cases OF diphtheria or suspiciout
cases from this school develop he shal
be Immediately informed and that the
whole school will be closed for time
But it is believed that by the measures
taken further trouble has been pre-
vented.
No other CAGES of the disease are re-
ported as existing in East Los Angeles
and it is thought that proper sanitary
precautions will have much to do with
preventing its spread.

A MONSTER OCEAN SUN FISH,
The Story Of His Capture Of
Redond0.
His Captors Nearly Dragged Under
the Water.
The Largest specimen of His Kind Re
corded-some Points About the
History and Habits of
the Species.

A monster ocean sun fish, supposed to
be the largest in the world, has just
been stuffed by Mr.. Thomas Shooter.
and attracted much attention while
being taken through the streets yester-
day on big truck. It is one OF the
most interesting fish ever secured from
the waters OF the Pacific.
There is probably no study more in
teresting or sport more fascinating
than that which pertains to the silvered
inhabitants of the ocean. 1t is abund-
ant with wonders and novel discoveries,
one OF which is the present monster, as
may bs seen from the accompanying
sketch.
