Inspector of the County Board of Health,

PALMA,s GREAT STAG.

The Palma Club stag was very well at
tended last night, and the vaudeville per-
Torrance was greatly enjoyed by the MEM
bers of the club and their guests. The
performance took place in the gymnasium,
which had been transformed into a pretty
theatre. sufficiently large to accommodate
all who were present. Frederick G. Wolbert
had been selected for master of ceremonies,
and he performed these duties with his usual
success.
The first artists to be introduced by him
were Webster and Conlon, comedians, who
appeared as typical Irish women of the farce
comedy style, inc afforded a great deal OF
amusement by their songs. Next on the card
was Madame Voigere, a French song and
dance artist. and her dancing eccentrlclt1es
were well received. She was followed by
Biiou Mignon, a, French dancer and high
kicker, who was loudly ~applauded. Mrs.
Kingsland delivered a monologue on men
and women, which was full of nonsense n
very entertaining. Dan Regan's banjo solo
and new jokes were very much appreciated,
and Waller & Waller, for a witty dialogue,
received considerable applause.
ALI of the performers were recalled by the
delighted audience, and they evidently felt
hattered by the hits they made. Several
local gags given were excellent and much
appreciated. At the conclusion of the pro-
gramme, all present were unanimous III ex-
pressing thanks to Mr.. Wolbert and the
Entertainment Committee for the pleasure
they had provided.

church ON Oak street. This conference will
last twelve days, and the sessions will con-
tinue from early morning till late at night.
Brother FRANKIE expects that over one hum
bred elders 5of the Faith will be present.
These will be lodged at the homes of the Ad-
ventists and among the clearinghouse
about the Hill. Ample preparations AVE
been made for feeding them. The store
they used to worship in, at Union street n
jackson avenue, has been hired for this pur-
pose. They have also secured of the family
living above the store. the use of their
kitchen. The food will be cooked
upstairs and sent below in a dumb
waiter. Ninety guests will be able
to dine at once. Brother Franke's church is
80 by 10 feet, and will seat about 400 people.
Both interior and exterior are perfectly
plain. 1t is lighted by twelve windows,
five on either side of the room, and one at
each side of the door.
The platform is raised about two feet. 1t
contains a lectern and three chairs. 1t is
covered with oil cloth and over the oil cloth
is placed a carpet, which is hooked down
like a stage carpet. The rear part of the
platform conceals a baptistry, which RUNS

three or four feet deep. The trap door,
when raised, rests against the wall. On its
inner side is painted a cross and crown and
this inscription:-"And now why Earliest
thou? Arise, be baptized, and wash away
thy SINS Back of the platform on the
wall hangs a maj four by four yards, on
which is marked every mission station in the
world, of any denomination. The religion a
county believes in is denoted by the color
in which it is painted; thus, Protestant
countries are yellow, Catholic, red: Mohama-
dam, green; Greek Catholic, light red:
Heather, black. 1t is really a wonderful
piece of work, and is well worth examining.
The church complete cost about $4,000. Cash
was paid for all material used, labor was to
be had cheap, owing to the hard times, and
these combined with the fact that the pastor
superintendent and did a great deal Of the
| work himself, enabled them to save $1,000
in its construction. Brother FRANKIE even
had the pews made under his supervision,
and by SO doing saved 800. The building
| will be dedicated on Sunday night, the SER
vices beginning at fifteen minutes to eight
| O'Clock. The dedicatory sermon will be
preached by Elder I. D. Van Horn, who will
be assisted in conducting the service by the
Oldest Adventist in the United States, Elder
T.. N. Loughborough. After the dedication
ceremonies there will be several baptisms.

MIR. Records Reform Nomination
Plan.

Now, Mr.. Records plan of reform in
nominations is in one sense a very
nice plan. But does it really reform?
1t seems to us that it only moves the
power of the boss one step back.
The purpose is to deprive the gem
tleman in the Jail of the power OF
nominating candidates. To effect this,
ic is proposed to have the voters of
each party select their candidates by
vote the first day Of registration. Very
nice, indeed.
But there are to be printed tickets,
bearing the names of candidates for
the nomination. Who. then. is to nomi-
nate these candidates? What matter
whether Mr.. Davis picks the man and
has him endorsed by a convention, or
picks the man whose name is to go on
the official ballot for ratification by
the handful of voters who personally
go to the polls on a single registration
day?
1t seems to us, absolutely, as If the
two schemes come to the same thing
in the end. Mr.. Records is more
elaborate, theoretical and expensive
than the present plan. but we do not
think it eliminates boss rule from our
politics by any means.
There is just one way for the poop lie
to secure good nominations. That is
by beating every man of bad charac-
ter or associations who is put up for
Office, without rega rd to party.
