The woodbiri calls, the shadows flee,
The sun comes golden from the sea
Across the meadow as stray
For you | take the fern frlnged way,
To gather violets wet with dew
Which only bloom, my love, for you-
For you. my love, alone for you
The grasses bend, the dewdrops shine,
The hawthorn's breath Is sweet as wine;
The soft wind steals with presence sweet
To fling white petals at my feet
And liz the leaves from violets blue,
Hidden TO wait, my love, for YOU
For you, my love, alone for you
Blue ~ your eyes, which hearts beguile,
Their faint perfume sweet as your smile,
| gather them, with fervent prayer
That they my passion may declare;
Their petals pale, tear stained with dew,
May tell how live but for you
For you, my love, alone for you

THE charge against Abram Aguilar for
the murder OF his vile was dismissed
yesterday by Judge Smith. The district
attorney refused to prosecute, on the
ground that there was no evidence OF
Aguilar's guilt. In the preliminary ex-
animation there was unimpeachable
testimony adduced from reputable wit
nesses that the accused WAS twenty
miles away from the scene OF the MUIR
der ut the time it WAS committed. There
Ia no reason to believe that the exoner-
alton OF Aguilar of the crime ia not
strictly just. But the question is nat
urally raised, Who committed this hor-
rible crime? 1t was one OF the most
atrocous ever perpetrated, done in broad
daylight and in a denaely populated
neighborhood. A young woman ia seen
in the rear yard of the house in which
che lived in East Los Ange lesenveloped
in flames, and neghbors are attracted
to her by her agonized screams. Her
with come chemical combustible which
had been ignited, and she died in great
agony. Just before her death she sol-
emnly declared tina. her husband
had committed the deed. 1t was
shown that the woman and her husband
had not lived happily together, and that
she had left him. There was also some
evidence that went to show that the
separation was not devoid Of bitterness
on the part of the woman. A theory
has been entertained by some that she
did the deed herself 80 as to avenge her
self upon her husband; but this theory
would imply degree OF credulity which
it is difficult, on reasonable principles,
to entertain. Who, then, could have
had sufficient motive to prompt so
6endish an act? This question will in
all probability never be answered. But
it does seem to a dispassionate critic
that, when the affair was fresh, if
keen detective work had been done it
would have got at the bottom of this
mystery and placed the crime where it
belonged. 1t is not to the credit of our
detective service that this appalling
daylight murder goes unwhipped OF

erage system. In contrast with the
drainage of that city Los Angeles will
have a most perfect system of sewerage.
All the wastage of this city will be car
ried directly to the ocean. The outfall
sewer takes the sewage from q series OF
intercepting sewers which are construct
ed inside the city to recsive the wastage
from the local sewers, and is then carried
sixteen miles to the ocean, at point
remote from any settlement, and taken
into the sea some 600 feet where it Is
discharged some twenty or thirty feet
under the surface of the water. Such q
system, when in full operation, cannot
but work very bene6cially. As the flow
seawsrd will be constant, there will be
no chance for sewer gas to generate in
the city, and all the noxious effects oi
sewage gathering and stsgnstinR at
points inside the city are avoided. The
fact that Los Angeles will be one OF the
best drained cities in the world will go
far to make her one OF the choicest cities
for residence in the United States.

After recovering from the surprise VIII 'ch at

goods go for what they would bring, the public
responded with a rush. All day yesterday the

chases at private sale Never in Los Angeles
II is SAFE to say, has ever an auction sale in
any mercantile establishment excited more

seemed to realize that goods would go Tor next
to nothing, and that's exactly what they did
The prices which were paid for many articles
we're far below the wholesale figures for the
same goods, but they had to go. The highest
bidder took off the thing offered in every in.

stones, costly images, pieces of brio a-brac,

world OF solid and plate ware. One man car
ried off gold chain for sum that he could
have broken up the chain and sold II for old
gold by the pennyweight and gotten back
what he had paid for it. These and such bar
gains was the way the sale went all day. 1t is
conservative statement to say that hardly
anyone attended the sale who did not make a
purchase, SO ridiculously low did the goods go
off
The sale, however, will be continued, every
day, commencing at p. m. and 1t z p. m.

A VERY FAT OFFICE.

It is estimated by a county officer,
whose business it ia to keep close eye
on public affairs. that the county as
sessor's Office is worth from 1900 to
$4,000 a year. He receives. besides
his regular salary of $1,000 per snnum,
15 per cent on all the poll taxes col
lected. and liberal percentage on per-
sonal property taxes. We have no
means Of verifying the statement that
the assessors Office is worth $4,000 to
$4,000 a year, but even if that total
were very largely discounted, it shows
that he receives much larger compen-
sation than any officer is entitled to.
The fixed salary itself is more than the
services are worth, compared with the
remuneration in businesses that re-
quire as much ability and attention as
the assesuor's Office exacts from the
incumbent. In all other county offices
where fees are collected, they go into
the treasury instead OF the pockets Of
the incu mbents. and we believe that
there is none OF the county
Offices to which legitimate per-
quietes are attached. 1t is true that
in the case OF the commission allowed
on the collection of poll taxes that is
paid by the state, but this commission
should go into the county treasury, as
the assessor is paid magnificent salary
by the county and his time properly be-
longs to the county. But the percent
age allowed Oh the collection of personal
property taxes is purely county affair
and should be paid into tho county
treasury. The salary of $3.50 q year
paid to the assessor is more than the
Office is worth, and when to that Is super
added the percentage, the compensation
he receives is simply enormous. It is
such inordinate incomes as that derived
from the assessors Office that encourage
all sorts OF corruption and frauds in the
primary elections and in the nominating
conventions. A man who can count on
5000 for four years term can we'll
afford to spend great deal OF money in
order TO achieve the position. Low sal
aries. therefore, mean raform, not only
in the Offices themselves, but honest

THERE is wide complaint among peo-
pie who ride in the street cars about the
overcrowding of the electric cars,
especially at certain times of the day
and evening. There are seats for thirty
elk people in the longest cars, but these
are often 30 packed that there is
scarcely standing room in them. At
certain hours in the day when the travel
is greatest the seats are all yielded to
ladies and the men have to stand. The
remedy for this discomfort is to run the
cars more frequently at the hours when
the travel is greatest. Each passenger
is entitled to seat. That is whas he ia
supposed 10 pay for, and unless the
difficulty OF furnishing the accommods'
tion is insuperable ne should have it.
In Paris the omnibuses ars not allowed
to carry more passengers than they caE
seat, and when tho seats are all full
they are compelled to notify this public
of the fact by displaying placard tC
that effect. We 90 not insist on 80
strict & rule here, but the company
should meet the hours OF greatest travel
with an increased number Of cara to ac-
commodate it.
