The Fever of Buying JeweIry Which Has

Crowds continue to press about the en-

potent present cause, drawing people into
these knots. seeking an opportunity to spend

WE MENTIONED the fact, the other day,

WE MENTIONED the fact, the other day,
that in the celebrated season of drouth
1876-77 Mr.. Flood and others raised
splendid crops on the Centinels ranch.
Then the total rainfall WAS only 4.85
inches. From an item which appears
in our local columna it will be seen that
in this year of retrenched rainfall the
crops are doing well, and Mr.. D. Free
man will have an abundant yield of the
cereals. This is the effect of deep plow-
ing and summer following. With these
two prerequisites there will never be q
year in Los Angeles county in which
abundant crops may not be raised,
especially in Los Angeles county.

ALL that the Democratic party needs
to win in California in three-cornered
fight lie to cut loose altogether from
Cleveland and a bond Issuing admins
tratioc, to declare for free coinage and
to adopt ringing platform replete with
Democracy. While our esteemed presi-
dent has nearly succeeded in doing it,
he was not commissioned to wreck the
Democracy by his subservience to Wall
street and his betrayal OF the Chicago
platform. Mr.. Cleveland is simply an
accident, whose name even will dlop
into oblivion inside OF the next decade,
while the principles OF Democracy are
eternal. In the present condition OF pol
itics in this state it is extremely doubt
full whether any respectable gentlemen
could be induced to run for any of the
state Offices handicapped by an endorse
ment of the un-Democratic vegaries of
Cleveland. This is true, and that's why
we say it,

THE way private detectives swarm all
over the United States is matter for
marvel. They abound in numbers as
great as the locusts OF Egypt. the GEN.
ter of this anomalous guild is Pinker-
toms, with headquarters at New York
and Chicago, and ramifcations all over
the United States. Pinkerton's lie an
agency unknown to the law. 1t is sort
OF imperium IN imperio. 1t ia probably
in it's present state something like what
the Janissaries of tbs Turkish empire
were when they first started out in their
career and had begun to commit the
atrocities which later resulted in their
Wholesale massacre. If there is any
law, state or national, under which the
Pinke-ton agency exists we confess that
we have never heard of it. To most
people it looks like organized murder.

AMERICANS are lately waking mp to q
realization OF the unrivaled charms OF
their own scenery, and the Yosemite
and other beauty spots of this continent
are profiting accordingly. The season
has now arrived when the full splendors
of this superb region may be enjoyed,
and the tide OF travel is now setting in
towards that enchanted spot. 1t is
curious thing that multitudes OF Califor-
mans even have not looked upon the
wonders which attract visitors from the
four quarters of the globe, and which
are sure to realize the most highly
strained expectations. No visitors to
California should return to the east
without having enjoyei this delightful
experience, which embraces, BESIDES
sight of the big trees. There is nothing
comparable to the Yosemite valley ON
the footstool. and visit is an inspira-
ton and joy forever-in fact, many
Joys, for the pRnorsmas to be seen there
are more varied and irridescent than the
tints of Kaleidoscope. The difficulties
that once attended trip to the Yo-
semitic have been smoothed away by the
conveniences OF modern travel. and it can
now be enjoyed without drawbacks OF any
kind. Comfortable hotels, commodions

PoLITIcAL purity, through the medium
of postal cards, does not promise to ma.
terialize in any particularly robust form.
The ordinary political primary is not
encouraging to the political reformer,
but that is about where he will have to
get in his work, according to present in
dications, if he desires to count in the
political contests Of the day The pri-
mary is all we'll enough in it's way. The
difficulty lie in getting the substantial
citizen to take part in it. He is too fond
of allowing his duties as citizen to be
discharged by the FOUNDERS and heelers.
He abdicstes his rights, and is then
surprised that the professional politician
becomes master of the situation.

SOCIETY.

Yesterday morning at 8 o'clock the
church OF Our Lady of the Angels pre-
scented beautiful appearance. The
altar was tastefully decorated with a
great display of flowers and candles
The background was draped in azure
blue sprinkled with gold stars. On top
of the altar near the ceiling was life
like model of the blessed Virgin
Mary, crowned with orange bios
soms and partly covered with a white
veil, emblems of purity and chastity.
The proiuse decoration OF the church
had been done in order to celebrate the
marriage ceremony OF Mr.. A. 5. Chap
man and Miss Delphina Santa Cruz,
member OF one the most distinguished
Spanish-American families.
The event created e aaneation amongst
the Spsnish-American colony OF the
city, as was proved by the great at
tendance OF many of the distinguished
representatives OF said colony.
The bride Was led to the altar by Mr..
N. @. Marsh, and was attired in beau
tiful cream-colored nuns yelling dress,
trimmed with natural orange blossoms,
ornaments and diamonds. The brides
maid, Mics Amelia Santa Cruz, sister OF
the pride, wac attlred in cream colored
crepe de CHEN dress, her head covered
with Spanish mantilla, and WAS the
ideal representation OF the Andaluslan
lady. The best man WAS DR.. s. Nj. Wool
bridge, end the maid OF honor, little
Antoni.a Flee.
AS soon as the couple entered the
church Musso Bros. orchestra, under
the Leadership of Prot. r. V. Musso, be-
gan to play Mendelssohn's wedding
march. And as the cortege arrived at
the altar Father +. II. Lie
bana, rector of the church, per-
formed the imposing and traditional
ceremony according to the Catholic rites.
The families of both parties were pres
emit. Among those noted were Mr.. and
Mrs. NJ. Il. Santa Cruz, mother OF the
bride; Miss Angelina Santa Cruz, Miss
r. Chapman, Mr.. and Mrs. John Musso,
sister OF the bride; Miss K. Elias, aunt,
Mr.. aud Mrs. A. Flores, editor OF Las
Dos Repu blicas, also many others. The
bride received many beautiful and costly
presents from her many friends. The
happy couple left for the midwinter
fair, where they will spend their honey
moon.

SANTA MONICA shows ell the signs Of
q very progressive community. She is
making unusual preparations this year
to chal enge the favor of the public.
The Jones interest alone has spent there
lately upwards of a hundred thousand
dollars, and ia preparing to make addi-
tional outlays. Much money ia being
spent in developing water, and the peo-
pie are intent upon having perfect

improvement more marked, and no
where do real estate values show a more
decided tendency to enhance. Los An

OUR esteemed contemporary, the Ex-
press, says that the msadventure to
the outfall sewer was leak and not q
break. This sort OF reminds us that a
rose by any other name would smell az
sweet, if not more 30. The facts about
this leak or break are that the sewer was
warranted 20 sustain pressure OF 40
pounds to the square inch, and
it succumbed to one OF II pounds.
A thing like that is generally looked
upon as a distinction with q difference.
Yesterday when the defective part of the
sewer was examined the pressure was

IT SEEMS to be at last penetrating the
obtuse intellects OF our Republican con-
temporsries that it is not, after all, so
sure that the mass of the Populist vote
will come from the Democratic party.
A little agitation of the gray matter in
the brains of our confreres has resulted
in remarkable change of opinion on
this point. Who will the Reverend
Bowman draw mostly from in this con-
gressionsl district? A little careful re-
Election on this head will give our
brethren clearer ideas.

Musical Matters.

An enthusiastic and fashionable au-
dience filled the acknowledgement
hall last evening, the occasion being the
soires musicale given by the pupils of
Mrs. Jenny I. Kempton. They were
assisted by Mrs. 7. Mssac and her
pupils.
The various participants, while little
nervous On account OF the extra large
crowd, gave an unusually smooth per-
formapce and were we'll received.
Mrs. Minnie Hance-O was in ex-
cellent voice, and her aria from the HUI
guenots was splendidly sung. Miss
kempton was also heard to advantage.
Mr.. Jack Griffith created a favorable
impression. He has voice OF much
strength and is learning to use it in an
effective manner. Mrs. Masac was un-
a3le to play on account OF an injury to
her hand. Miss Graves played twice on
the piano in a clear-cut manner-once in
place of Miss Rigz ns-and certainly ev-
licences remark bis talent on the piano
forte. Miss Be tr 9 Chandler rendered
the Loge's No wegisn song. Mrs. Orr
HARRISON sang the ario, o, Luce dl Sulst
Amina, Lindae (Donizetti) and Mrs.
Chas. COON ps was heard in MercadantIs
Bell Adorats, II Gluramento, and Mr..
James Martin in Pm Waiting (Birch).
rne latter and Mr.. Griffith were also
heard in y duet from Martha, Lost; Pro-
scrloed, and Mss Kempton, Mines.

UNITY CHURCH.-Ihere was quite q
large sized audience present last night
at the benefit rendered to Miss Ethel
Stewart. The young lady has sweet
soprano voice, and will soon leave for
New York to enter the Conservatory OF
Music. She is said to resemble the late
Emma Abbott when that sweet voiced
soprano WAS at her age, Miss Stewart
sang well, and was encored a number OF
times. Her selections were: Shadow
Song Opera Dlnorah by Meyerbeer), II
Basi (EArditi and Ernani Invalimi
(VerdD. The programme was opened
with Mendelssohn q sonata for piano and
violoncello rendered by Messrs Peter
silica and Stevens. B. s. Stoneman was
next heard in Creole Lovers Song
(Buck), and then Mr.. Petersilea play ed
Liszt's Faust Waltz. MIR. Tom
Barnes recited Maud Muller, and
after slight intermission the
Mandolin orchestra rendered the
Liberty Bell march by Sousa. Miss
Carrie May Dsggett sang Dost Thou
Know That Sweet Land, ard was fol-
lowed by Clarence W. Stevens, who
played violoncello solo.
Miss Ellen Norton then rendered O
double number of Chopin and Norton

THE news which reaches US from
Cripple Creek, Colorado, is OF most
momentous character. Hostilities are
under way there almost on the scale OF
actual warfare. The logs of life is al
ready considerable, and it promises to
be much greater. The Colorado miners
are a fearless and hardy class, and they
are not to be easily overawed. The
explosion OF dynamite in levels in which
mea were working, and the wanton
destruction OF property, are features
that throw great discredit on the strik-
ers. The valuable gold properties in the
neighborhood of Cripple Greek will
count for little in adding to the stock OF
the yellow metal for some time to come.
Colorsdans aeem to largely partake OF
the fiery character of their hot'headed

1t ia conceded even by the most RAM
pant Populists that the Rev. Mr.. Bow
man is going to have an uphill fight in
his candidacy for congress in the Sixth
district. The record made by Marion
Cannon, the first Populist congressman
from California has not been such as to
inspire the rank and file of the party
with confidence. Then, it is a foregone
conclusion that the Democrats will have
a strong candidate OF their own in the
field, and thus Mr.. Bowman will lose
many votes that Mr.. Cannon got. 1t is
significant that Judge Utley, Judd Rush
and other prominent members OF the
party who could have had the nomina-
tion for the asking, refused to allow their
names to come before the convention.

They Partake of Opossum.

The Milwaukee Journal, Jan. %.
Supper, of which stewed opossum
formed the central dish, was served at
St. Marks A. NJ. E. church, last night.
The supper marked the close of an in
dustrial fair which had been conduct
ed during the week for the benefit of
the church. There was no sweet po-
tato between the molars of the opos-
sum, and he was not cooked like a
sucking pig, but nevertheless he
proved complete success as draw
ing card, and the church was filled to
Overlooking. The colored brother
came to find delight in the taste and
smell of 'possum, but he did not come
in jeans. His clothes, on the contrary,
were fashionable, and those of his wife
or sweetheart were dazzling. In fact,
there were silks, satins and swallow
tails at the opossum supper at St
Marks last night.
