During the past week there has been
on exhibition in the rear of The Fine
Art store. next to the Los Angeles thea.
ter, keiisky's great painting, entitled A
Glimpse OF the Harem. 1t has been on
exhibition six months in San Francisco,
and in that time was visited by many
thousands OF people. The painting is
said to be valued at 500 600, but its
money value counts for very little with
those who properly view it; it is its high
artistic merit that com mands admira-
ton. 1t ia exhibited with a strong arti-
fetal sidelight only. This, of course,
tends to highten certain Elusive effects,

A NEW SEWER DISTRICT.

The Drainage System of Growing SEQ
tion in the City.
Another important a6dition.to the in
tefnai system of sewers OF the city has
been mapped out by the employees OF
the city engineers Office, 10 drain an
important and rapidly groing section in
the southwestern portion OF the pueblo.
1t will be known in the parlance of
the city engineers Office as the western
sewer district No. 7, and the rights of
way for the line are now being secured
As this sewer, owing to the topography
of the territory in which it will be laid
will cut acress five tracts OF land in sec
ton, whore it will be impractical to fol-
low street lines. The new sewer district
begins at the corner of Seventh and
Alyarado streets, and then runs along
the northerly line OF the ravine in
that locality, then south west to Ninth
street and the west city boundary to the
interception OF the eutfall sewer.
This system will drain the territory
north OF Ninth street, west of Union
avenue and Iona drive, and south of
First street and Ocean View avenue, and
east of Alvsrado street north of Seventh
street. About four miles of 8 to IA inch
vitrified pipe will be laid as early as
possible in the lower portion of the dis
trict, at cost of about SIS, 900. AS the
upper section of the district is made up
mainly OF ungradsd streets, nothing will
be done there until these thoroughfares
have been improved, when there will
be an additional outlay of $4,000.

ALL RESPECT HIM.
Some Kind Comments on the
Premier'S Retirement.

LONDON, March 1.-The speech of Glad
stone is variously interpre ed. In some
quarters IL is supposed TO herald speedy
dissolution. In others it is thought it dis
counts the IDEA he will favor the choice of
a peer as his successor. The Queen will
hold a council of Ministers at Windsor
Castle Saturday. The business to be dis
cussed will be connected with the proro-
CATION of Parliament.
The Times says: "The close of his
great career cannot be contemplated save
with sadness and regret. Friends and op-
ponents are united in this crisis by a COM
mon sentiment and respectful sympathy
that oyerleaps all differences and antagon-
isms. There is something disappointing
and unworthy of the occasion in his
speech, dealing as IL did throughout will,
meager and bitter banalities and current
partisansbip. He leaves his post without

light of small lamp left burning. saw the
figures of two men enter the room. She
uttered cry and William Thompson, rush
ing across the room. struck her in the
head with hatchet. Baker was aroused

out of bed the negro was upon him.
A frightful struggle ensued, and when the
negro was ge ting the worst of it his ac-
com plice, Thompson, rushed to his rescue,
but Mr.. Baker partially avoided blow
from the hatchet and escaped with a cut
on the forehead. He made rush at
Thompson and received cash in the

ak from the assassin and hoored him with
the weapon.

meantime the negro Baker crept from the
room, and as he reached the stairway
