Rev. Father NJ. V. Richardson, O. M,
celebrated high mass at 1890 a. m.
After the singing of the gospel the
Very Rev. Father J. W. Hickey, O. M,
addressed the congregation in his we'll
known logical and eloquent style on the
Consolation of Religion.
Quoting the words of St. Paul
Brethren, L reckon that tho sufferngs
OF this time are not to be compared
with the glory to come, that ehall be
revealed in u.s." Rom. viii :l8-the ora
tor exclaimed: What food for consider
alton, for meditation, these words OF
the prince OF the apostles give to a
thoughtful mind. Life, as we know it,
10 short; it soon GIBBS away. Some may
live few years longer than others, but
invariably will come to the conclusion
that they live in q valley of tears. But
God, who does all things we'll, had An
object in putting US here. He gives US
clearly to understand that the battles of
life are intended to purify our souls in
thoughts, words, deeds and omissions
for the life to come.
"Pescs of heart is what we mostly
need. II there is something wrong in
in the heart we are not happy. Christ's
first message was peace. Pacify your
weary heart to reach the grand lesson
of the life OF our Redeemer. II you are
poor, remember your Savior, who had
not place to rest his head. You are,
perhaps, unjustly illuminated. despised,
hurt, cut to the vsry heart, but are you
really cure that you suffer as much as
your divine modelf No. Christ suf-
Tered as only God can suffer. Why ?
To set ne an example, to console us in
the hour of tribulation-in the hour of
death. Do not such thoughts bring us
nearer to him? They teach us how to
be patient and bear the burdens of our
daily life.
Religion. therefore, is the golden
chain which binds the creature to its
creator; it binds the heart of man to the
all-loving God. The mother may forget
her offspring, the friend may 60 back on
US, but God remains the same-yester-
day. today and forever.
"He only wants you to ask Him; to
speak to him with confidence: to
Dreaune our woes TO His fatberiy heart.
We even have Him with US in the tab
ernscle; we have nothing else to do but
to pour out our sorrows and receive the
grace from His divine throne through
the sacraments of holy mother church. I"

cannot act, so Hon. M. M. Estee has been
entrusted with conduct OF the litigation
on the part of the stats. The conten tion
of Mr.. Estee, who will conduct the
states case. will be that none OF the
parties who claim to be heirs of old
Blythe were in reality heirs; that they
we're ali frauds and impostors alike. and
that no one now living has any claim to
the property of the deceased. Per con-
ira. Attorney-G General Hart will contend
that the English girl Florence, who was
called Blythe, and is now Mrs. Hinckley,
has proved herself to be the daughter of
Blythe to the satisfaction of Judge Col
fey. and that so long as his judgment is
unreversed the Blythe estate is not dere-
lict, and the state has no standing in
court to ask that it be escheated.

SIMPSON TABERNAoLE-The opening
concert of the Loreei quartette last
night, after their tour in the east, added
another laurel to the long list OF sue
cesses made by this organization OF
Young women. 1t was attended by the
prominent members of local musical
circles, who were very enthusiastic.
The ouartette has been organized
about year and half, and is composed
of the following young women: Mics
Elizabeth H. Kimball, fret soprano;
Miss Mary L. Young, second soprano !;
Miss Alice Fl. Eaton, first alto. and Miss
Edith Gardner, second alto. During the
worlds fair they went to Chicago, and
under the direction of Mrs. j. ID. Gale
gave a series of successful concerts In
that city and vicinity.
At their appearance last evening they
sang with even more ability than when
last heard here. Their voices all showed
Improvement and greater freedom in
expression, the improvement being es-
pecially noticeable in the concerted
selections. With the exception OF Rock
n-Bye and Dame Cuckoo the selections
were entirely new. Both OF these were
given with more than the old time go,
the voices blending exquisitely, especi-
ally in the loft lullaby song.
The Huntresses, by Miss kimball and
Mics Gardner, was well received, as was
the latter's solo, All 'Tis . Dream:
The closing selection, Coming Ihro'
the Rye, was one OF the hlts Oh the
evening. -.

his accustomed ability, as did Mr.. Ber-
nard Berich and Miss Beflich.

the famous soliloquy..
He presented the Melancholy Dane in
straightforward manner, the rant
ing usually accompanying such re-
citals being happily absent. AS an en-
core he recited short poem, Eilen's
Eye. His second selection WAS also well
received. The programme was as fol-
lows:

ished that the Chinese exhibit nearly
as much indifference to registering un-
der the McCreary law extending the
time as they did under the Geary law.
The McCreary law is really an act of
grace, passed by congress to help the
Chinese out of the bad fix they had
gotten into through the dictation OF the
Six Companies. They had let the time
pass when registration would have been
lawful, and were therefore liable to
deportation. When the bill extending
the time was on its passage, assurances
were given that the Chinese would be
quick to register if given another chance.
The chance is given them, and, 10 and
behold, there is not the slightest indi-
cation that the Mongolisns are anxious
to obey the law. The contemptuous
way in which the derelicts are treating
this act Of grace ehould open the eyes
OF the sentimental people of the east,
who have gone wild in their friendship
for the Chinese. But the fact remains
that the Asiatic element in this country
have no respect for our laws, and have
no hesitation to DEFY them. The Chi

There seems to be o universal de-
mand on the part OF residents in the
outlying sections of the city for an ex-
tension of the free delivery mail service.
There are many thinly-populated dis
tricts along the lines Of the cable and
electric roads that are clamoring for
free delivery, and in all justice are en-
titled to it. The free delivery limits
have not been changed since 1888, and
the appropriation for the Los Angeles
postoffice is said to be even less now
than it was then, while the revenues OF
the Office have increased at least 40
per cent. In view OF these facts, and
the rapid growth of the popula-
ton, it is about time our citi-
zens were bestirring themselves for
better postal facilities. The inhabitants
of the Bonnie Brae and AlvArado
Heights tracts have petitioned the post
mastar-general for free delivery, and
Postmaster Van Dusen should give these
petitions a hearty endorsement. The
opportunity also presents itself to the
chamber of commerce to get in and pass
some resolutions. Pressure should be
brought on our representatives at Wash
ington to take up this subject and insist
on an appropriation for the Los Angeles
postofice, commensurate with the reve-
nues and the demands OF the service.

The announcement that the city of
Chihuahua has been captured by the
revolutionists is probably hoax. I'm
less that city ia thoroughly disloyal it is
hardly possible that a handful OF revo-
lutionists could succeed in capturing it
in such short order. Poririo Diaz is too
astute and wids-awake president to
permit go important city as Chihuahua
to be surprised and taken by any force the
revolutionists could muster. We shall
wait for the confirmation of this dis
patch before we shall accept it as true.

THE rebels in the islands of Sicily will
stand but small chance Of success W hen
Italy has concentrated her forces. No
less than 5000 soldiers have been sent
to the island to put down the rebellion.
Italy at the present time appears to be
the sick man OF Europe. Her exchequer
is hopelessly bankrupt, and more than
the bearable limit OF taxation has been
reached. Since that country joined the
triple alliance she has increased her
army and her feet to the proportions OF
those Of q first-olass power. In order to
do this che has taxed the people beyond
endurance, and no one need be aston
ished il the general discomfort all over
Italy should lead to formidable risings
in other provinces than Sicily. In try
ing to keep peace with the other allied
powers she has initiated the frog in the
fable that tried to swell himself to the
size cf an OK. Long before he reached
the bovine size, however, he burst.

GOVERNOR MARKHAM has decided to
intervene in the litigation in the Blythe
estate. under the claim that it is one of
those estates which escheats to the state
the property of deceased persons who
have no legal heirs. During the admin
istration OF Governor Stoneman that ex-
ecutive called the attention of Attorney
General Marshall to the strong probable
ity that the Blythe estate should escheat
TO the state OF California. Mr.. Marshall
did institute cult for that purpose, but
&c was held by the court that the pro-
ceeding must fail on the ground that it
was premature, being instiIuled before
the expiration of the five years to allow
alleged heirs to present their claims.
Six years have now elapsed since the
death of Blythe, and therefore the pro-
ceedings will now come within the pur-
view OF the statute. This aetion of the
governor may produce reversal o.

Blythe ia entitled to the property. I'm

nese Six Companies do not appear on
the surface as antagonizing this law,
as thsy did when they ordered their
people not to obey the Geary law. But
they have set their minions, the high
binders, at work to terrorize the Chinese
who are di sposed to register, and thus
accomplish the Same object that they
would if they themselves we're to issue

pretty pass when banded set of aliens
can defy our laws with impunity.

The young hero who saved the lives
of six boys, who had gone down through
break in the ice in Carson river few
days since, performed an act which is
worthy OF national recognition. Per.
haps no drawer or humane act was ever
recorded than this young hero. who is
only IA years old, performed in rescuing
the last of the imperiled boys. Having
landed five, he went back to save the
sixth: but the boy had disappeared I'M
der the ice. Without hesitation he
dived into the river, seized the drown
ing boy and swam with him under water
until he reached an air hole, when he
rose to the surface and brought his
precious charge ashore. Not only ia
this yoang hero worthy of the brightest
medal the government can issue for
such acts OF devotion and heroiam; but
his reward should assume more SER
viceable shape. He should be presented
with a purse that would enable him to
receive first-class education and help
to start him in business life with an as
sured capital. We are glad to see that
a movement to this end has been al
ready begun by the people Of Carson.
The subscriptions are limited to half 3
dollar from one person. But the move
ment ahould not be confined to Nevada !;
it should extend to every state in the
union.

Clarence Stewart, the missing merchant
of Riverside, had been found at Ven
turs. The only information obtainable
is to the effect that he was seen there
last Wednesday afternoon.
W. W. Phelps OF Riverside, who has
charge of the search. left on the 2
O'Clock train yesterday afternoon for
Ventura, but up to q late hour last
night it was not known whether he
found Mr.. Stewart there, Mr.. Phelps
did not reach Ventura until O'Clock
last evening.
George T. Wright of Riverside arrived
from Ventura at 8 10 O'Clock last night
and was seen at the Hollenbeck by
HERALD reporter. He has been visiting
that town over week, and happen ed to
meet Mr.. Stewart on the street there
last Wednesday. He refused several in
vitations from Mr.. Wright to take
luncheon and also TO take ride around
the suburbs of the seaside town. He
made no explanation of how he hap
pened to be in Ventura, except that he
was there on business and seemed in a
great hurry.
One of the Chaffey boys of Ventura
also saw Mr.. Stewart On the street, and
be told the boy that he was going out in
the country to look at some land. Since
that time nothing has been heard Of
him.
Much mystery surrounds the case, and
it Will be hard matter to clear up I'M
less Stewart is now in Ventura.

From all parts of this lower country
the good news comes to us that the
farmers are putting out the largest crop
ever planted in this section. New
ground is being broken everywhere,
and the area OF grain sown will be
greater than ever before. This causes
no surprise, for the season has been go
propitious az to invite every farmer to
enlarge his grain fields. The rains
commenced OPPORTUNITY, and have been
followed at short intervals by
showers that have placed the ground in
the finest condition possible for blowing
and seeding. The price Of grain, which
ruled low last year, will doubtless reach
q much higher figure this year. 1t
seems to be the law of the case that a
year OF low prices is generally followed
by one of high, or at least satisfactory,
prices. The outlook in Europe is en-
couraging. The markets there will be
stimulated by the new tariff, for they
have been shut out from Us as far as
possible in retaliation for the Mex inley
bill. But there is another possibility
in the ieverish condition in
Europe that may lead to very
high prices in grain. 1t lie i'm
possible that the powers can maintain
their armies on a war footing much
longer without rupture. Both France
and Germany are eager to get at each
others throsts. and whore there .is q
will there is way. We shall be sorry
to see war break out, but If it do it
will make profitable market for Amer
lean food productions, and our farmers
will receive their share of the benefit.

Wednesday evening, when Miss Mabel
Chase WAS united for life with Mr..
Charles Bireley, the Rev. Father Rider,
pastor of the church, officiating. The
communicating parties are both of this
city, and have host OF friends.
Promptly at tue hour of the strains
of the wedding march announced the
arrival OF the bridal party.
The bride was beautifully attired in
cream crepe, with brocade silk trim
mings, carrying bouquet OF white hya-
cinths. Her attendant, Miss Kate Rider,
wore pink silk with pink trimmings and
pink hyacinths.
They entered together. and we're pre-
coded by little flower girls to the altar,
where they were met by Mr.. Bireley
and his best man, Mr.. Chss. Kimball.
The beautiful and impressive ceremony
was performed beneath an exquisitely
constructed bell of smilax and white
rosebuds. The church was tastefully
decorated, and the host of friends that
assem- bled in honor OF the occasion fully
attested the popularity of the young
couple. Many lovely and useful pres
ents were sent TO the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Bireley on Hellman street, Uni
