PERHAPS there is no better instance in
this community OF self-made man than
Joe Taggart, or, to be more particular,
j. P. OF that ilk. While conducting q

the Vanderbilt mining district, and he
determined to help develop the valu-
able lodes which be was credibly in

self into the work with his customary
energy and liberality. and today he is
fairly on the road to becoming a million
sire. The other day he declined an offer
OF $l50,000 from Denver parties for one
of his properties, the Gold Bronze, and
he has others behind. Here WAS a
young man who did not stand around
bewsiling the absence OF opportunities
for advancement in this section, but
who threw himself into the breach, and
thus helped to develop his section and

THERE is no use trying to evade the
fact that the present is most eccentric
season. While the degree OF cold possi-
BILE here is q mere bsgstelle compared to
the low temperatures of the eastern
states, all the same we have had more
"northers," more gales and more down
right frost than in any half dozen years
put together since we fret saw Los An
geles. What the explanation of the
mystery is we cannot pretend to say
but the fact is there. In 3 region whore
the climate is ordinarily so mild that
very few of our dwellings are provided
with tireplaces even q trihing degree of
cold is not agreeable, and while We man
age to carry our heliotropes, and camel
lias, and hyRcinths and tube-roses, and
score OF others Of the most delicate
specimens through in splendid style in
the open air, the northers OF yesterday
have a sensible effect upon those whose
blood has been thinned out by a num-
ber OF years residence in a sub-tropical
climate. While there has been nothing
comparable to this visitation during our
acquaintance with Los Angeles, it may
be merely the return to some old cycle
not recorded because the United States
signal service in Los Angeles is of COM
paratively recent establishment.

The vaccinations of the official
weather bureau for Monday and Tues
day are not calculated to imbue the
average Californian with high respect
for the judgment OF its presiding genius.
We were informed by telegraph from San
Francisco that on Monday yesterday
we should have light rains, with winds
from the west and northwest - gentle
zephyrs, as it were. Not a word was
said about the fierce "norther" that we
really had yesterday. But look out for
today, ye who have any confidence in
official mete sociological previsionsl Ac-
cording to this interpreter of the weath.
or clerk, today, we are to be treated to
light rains and the winds are to swell
into norther." If we are to have
more winds than we had yesterday the

should be tightly rolled up and that a

should be driven into the fastenings OF

WELEARN that the Hon. w. P. @. .Breck-
inridge, instead of being the nephew, is
the son of the illustrious Rev. Robert ].
Breckinridge. There is something de-
cidedly exceptional in this fact. He
seems to have benefited amazingly by
the reputation of his father for sanctity,
and to have lectured extensively before
religious societies who were attracted to
him by his relationship to his father. 1t
is this man who, whatever may be
thought of the charges which Miss Pol
lard and her friend and protector, the
wife of tie late Governor Blackburn,
has brought against him, he himself
stated that he slept with Miss Pollard
the second night I've met her. She was
then a schoolgirl of seventeen. Now
while Col. Breckinridge may have
thought that this statement would be
damaging to the young lady, ne utterly
overlooked the fact that it is sppallingly
incriminatory of himself and that it
left him, on his own declaration, and on
the features of his past career, in the
light OF whited sepulcher. Mr.. Breck-

Los ANGELES THEATRR.-Mr. James

he depicted the poignancy OF his grief,

when he takes the life OF Appius, were
extremely praiseworthy.
The chief fault with MIR. O'Nsilps work

musical and virile; but he, perhaps un-
consciously, as a rule pitches his tones
too high, the result being an attenuation

acter.

Mr.. O'Neil has played the part and some
improvements in his byplay and bust

work to draw forth adverse criticism,
the fact remains that be played the part

Tine HERALD is by no means commun-
istic in it's leauings, but we have no hes
itation in expressing it as our belief that
a modified form of communion will be
one of the inevitable developments of
the near future. A higher order of civ
ilization will in time compel the genuine
observation OF the rights of man.
Great advances have been made in this
direction during the past hundred years.
At the opening OF this century there
were one hundred and thirteen statutes

One day aa Edmund Burke was going to
his dinner a fellow member of the
house OF commons asked MIN to vote
for pending bill. The great orator su-
swered that he was hungry and could
not wait. "Oh, replied his friend, "it's
only hanging statute, and it will take
but few minutes to pass it," Human
life was valued very little in those days.
A well authenticated instance OF this
fact appears in the law records of the

VIVA Schemes Of War.


The rumored invention of N. Tur-
pin for destroying q hostile army
wholesale is not the only scheme OF
defense which has recently been sub
mitted to the French minister of
war; for the professor of one of the
principal colleges in Paris has pro-
posed that large blow flies should be
bred and kept in cages, being fed
upon blood placed between the arti-
fetal skin of lay figures dressed up
in the German uniform. When war
was declared, these flies would be
rendered venomous by feeding them
on the sap of tropical plants, and
taken to the front in their cages,
from which they would be released,
and make short work of the enemy.
Another patriot suggests that dogs
should be trained to bite lay figures
wearing the German uniform, and
that each soldier should be accom-
panied by a dog in time of war.
These dogs would at once Ego" for
the enemy, their advance being
rendered invisible by setting light
to some substance which would emit
a cloud of smoke.-London Daily
News.
