DEATH OF ALBERT F. KERcHRvAL.

The death of Albert F. Kercbeval was
modestly announced in funeral notice
in these columns yesterday. He was
"a years of age and had lived in Los
Angeles since 1868. He came to Cali
fornia in 1849, and for many years was
a resident of Grand Island, on the
Sacramento river. He opened his career
in this state, like nearly all '49ers. as a
miner. Since he came to Los Angeles
he has devoted his time to the raising
OF orange trees and grape vines, and was
one of the most successful horticultur-
ists in our section. He took deep in
terest in his calling and was among the
first to introduce the vedalia cardinals
to the attention Of our orange-growers.
At his place, near the river, he propa-
gated the Australian lady-bug, and was
greatly instrumental in extirpating the
white scale, which bad created such sad
havoc in the orchards of this and the
adjoining counties. He was man OF
uncommon energy and intelligence, and
one of the sweeteBt-temperedg gentlemen
in the land.
Mr.. Kercheval was a poet of a very
high order, and has written some of the
finest poems in the language. 1t is but
a few days since the HERALD published a
very exquisite little piece from his pen
headed ''Groyer o." inviting the presi-
| dent-elect to come to California. Oh
late years Mr.. Kercheval gave rein to his
muse only ENTHUSIASTICALLY but ten
years ago be was very assiduous devo.
tee at her shrine. In 1883 he published
large volume of poems. Dolores =
"Children Of the Sun" and "Jornada de
la Muerte'' are among the most preten
tious in this book. To our mind, tn,
finest of his short poems are "Ode to th'
Sun, Shakespeare" and "Oblivion Z
but all Of his productions, without ex
ception, are very meritorious. The po
etic instinct go predominated in hi
temperament that he could compose un
usually fine pieces on any given subject

B. w. Bachelor, who had been COM
miasioned to go to Sacramento and in
struct Mr.. Kerns as to the wishes of his
constituents. There were 100 members
of the patty present.
Mr.. John Robson was called to the
chair and A. Vinette was appointed as
secretary. MIR. Bachelor gave a lengthy
and detailed account of what transpired
before and after the election of United
States senator.
All the testimony given before the
legislative committee was read 20 the
meeting and the resolutions adopted
by the Populists at Sacramento were ap-
proved and others were adopted by the
meeting.
These charge Congressman Cannon
with lobbying for the election of DEM
ocratic senator and against the Populiet
candidate, and allege that he attempted
to brihe assemblymen by letter, and
that he had been offered half the pat
ronage if Democrat was elected; that
he denounced the Populists Of Sacra-
mento as Ga mob" and WAS the means
whereby Thoe. J. Kerns "proved recre-
ant to his trust" and also with "be it
known to the people of the United
States" that Mr.. Cannon is a traitor to
his party, and demanding that the ma
tional committees OF the Peoples party
and of the lndrgtrial Legion shall expel
him from these parties.

ADJUSTMENTS.

Los ANGELES THEATER-The patience
and good nature OF audiences of this city
was evidenced last evening at the con-
cert given by the Euterpean quartette,
composed OF Mr.J. P. Dupuy, first tenor
Mr.. F. N. Nay, second tenor; Mr.. II. S.
Williams, baritone, and Mr.. F. w. Wal
lace, basso.
The quartette is composed perhaps OF
fit performers for parlor entertain
ment, where they would be judged by
fond but not discriminating friends and
relatives, but there was no reason shown
by their singing last night that justifes
them in posing as professionals at a con-
cert where an admission fee is charged
The affair does not call for any detailed
notice.
= Besides their first mistake of appear
ing at all, the Euterpeans committed
another unwise act in securing the "ae-
sietance" of people whose performance
so overshadowed that of the quartette
as 10 render its defects even more per-
ceptible than would otherwise have
been the case.
Mr.. j. Bond Francisco as violinist,
for example, is a finished performer, to
whose playing the most cultured musi.
cal people listen with pleasure.
Miss Katherine Kimball's soprano af-
forded great delight, as did the brilliant
piano playing of Miss Mary L. O'Dono
ghue, and Miss Beatrice Francisco as
accompsnist. If the ''assistants'' had
given the entire concert the large audi
ence which was present would have
been better pleased.

splendidly in places. in the interest Of
the feed crop more moisture is required.
A large number OF orchards are in the
process OF being planted. and with an.
other visitation Of rain the increase OF
fruit trees set will be very great. There
is no actual suffering for rain percepti-
bic anywhere, but yet slightfall would
be acceptable to the farmers. We are
not in prophetic mood, but it win be
out OF the ordinary order of thingsif we
shall not have the pleasure of recording
genial and liberal showers within four
teen days. The season so far. however,
has been perfect for both farm, orchard
and vineyard, and all signs point to this
as the most perfect season for growth
we have ever had.
