MUSIC.

A small but enthusiastic audience as.
aembled at the concert given last even.
ing by Miss Gertrude Auld at Simpson
tabernacle. The programme contained
IL numb ers, most of which were en-.
cored, and duets and quartettes between
the solo numbers gave a variety that
seemed to be appreciated. Miss Aud
was in good voice and her choice OF
eongs enabled her to chow more veraa.
tility of treatment than in the concert
last week.
In the Staccato polka. by Mulder, she
was at her best, for it is in brlliancy of
execution that lies in Miss Auld's chief
strength tho Mozart lullaby, although
lacking in color, was sung carefully, and
in the beautiful duet, Silent Night, by
Cote. which Mr.. Williams sang with
her, she showed more feeling than in
anything else. Mrs. LIE Sage, with her
rich smooth contralto, makes very
admirable foil to Miss Auid'e high
soprano. and her singing last night was
agreeable and artistic. Mr.. Bacon sang
his numbers with his usual placid calm,
and he gave Paolo Foste's magnetic
Good Bye a very unusual reading. OF

THE WHITTIER SCHOOL.
THE DIRECTORS WILL ASK FOR
MORE FARMING LAND.
An Appropriation Needed to Enlarge
the Grounds-The Schools Well
Filled with Inmates.

WHITTIER. Jan. 1.-THE directors Of
the reform echool at Whittier, of which
board Mrs. Andrew Mullen Of Loa An.
geles is president, have decided to ask
the Legislature to make IN appropriation
for the purchase OF more land, 80 that
800 or more boys in the school can have
room for agricultural and horticultural
operations. The land connected with
the inetituton is limited to 200 acres, q
large portion of which is occupied by
the various buildings and Fairgrounds,
leaving only email area for cultivation.
The wants OF the institution really re.
quire as much es a whole section Of
land; but as the owners OF contiguous
territory will not sell for less than 500
or $500 per acre, the board will not ask
the state to buy very much OF it at such
prices.
The total number OF boys in the
school is now about 115, and there are
also % girls in the female dopartm ant.
Never did the country surrounding
Whittier look more beautiful than it
does now. The landscape ia one OF the
most charming Imaginable. and the best
of it is everybody knows that such
conditions mean good crops ahead.

ANYTHING and we quit. We believe that the
time has arrived to look in another direction.
The people Of Fresno think that the interests
of Southern California are identical to those
of the valley and we would rather cast our lot
with you than with any other part OF tho
state The products OF Southern California
and Fresno are almost identical, and we
know that if those two sections JON together
in this natter something will be accom-
prsf.ed for q be tier transportation systcul ~
Mr.. White explained the saving OF
time that would be realized from a com.
peting line, connecting with Los An
geles, when wheat would be shipped by
San Pedro instead of going to the
markets of the world by way of Cape
Horn. In answer to question that
might be ssksd as TO how Los Angeles
would be benefited by q competing line,
Mr.. White stated that Fresno consumes
a carload OF merchandise per day and
that that trade would naturally come to
this city.
"If our merchants" concluded Mr..
White, "buy their sugar, nails, provi-
sions and other merchandise in Los
Angeles. it seems that your city will
get considerable benefit from the cora
petinz line. Our merchants will tie up
to Los Angeles and cut looss from San
Francisco"

az now; then we may expect co be on
a live-and-let-live basis in free Amer
Tea Instead Of by the grace of his eX-
csliency, C0llis P. Huntington. Some
thing must be radically wrong with tue
| southern Pacific management when it
linda iteelf aud its shrewd president
dsepsed in every city, every hamlet,
along lite Thousands of miles OF road.
Some OF our sleepy silurian contemp-
81 aries of the north, who shiak that
San Francisco contains all the virtue of
the state aud who are trying to belittle
the plan OF road out from Los Angeles,
are demonstrating their ignorance by
saying that the Tejon pass would be
more difficult than the Tehachepi noun
tains to climb, and that from Los An.
geles it would have to traverse q desert
waste from which it could expect no
business. On the contrary. such a road
would run through productive country
nearly all the way. The Tejon pass we
have traverssd many times, and we
know that the railroad surveys show
that it is far easier route to cross the
mountains than the Tehschepi route,
and thst the Southern Pacific would now
be running through the TETON pass ii
the early owner hadn't thought he had
cinch on the Southern Pacific, and
by holding for too high a price
drove them to the higher and more
difficult route. Then instead of desert
waste the new road would tap the Ants-
lope valley, develop it and find it one
of the most profitable portions OF the
line. This valley now has 10000 acres
OF grain and over 5000 acres OF fruit trees
and vines. In 1898 we shipped 735 car
loads OF wheat. All along the coming
lines will be found progress that has but
begun, yet done wonders by our ener.
getic people despite the exactions OF
the Southern Pacific to which this val
ley paid 500, 900 in one year in freights
and passenger fares, and yet lives, more
prosperous than ever, to tell the story.
Should the business men of the Los
Angeles chamber OF commerce meeting
evolve plan for railroad, they can
rest assured that the Antelope valley
will do its full share in helping the
enterprise along and when the road is
built most profitable business will be
done with our people.

Mr.. Berry OF Fresno was called upon
by the chairman, but he declined in favor
of 7. G. White, who commenced his adj
dress by stating that the delegation from
that county had selected its orators for
the occasion, but that the latter had
been detained at home. He explained
that the small attendance from Fresno
was not due to any lack of interest, but
on account of the heavy rains, which
threatened that section with a food.
After complimenting Mr.. Holabird on
his excellent address. Mr.. White con-
tinued:

Fresno produced last year $4,000 tons OF

freight rates of from $3.50 to 81 per ton to
Port Costa, distance of $50 miles, while they
charge 80 cents per ton to Chicago or Buffalo,
a distance of 1000 miles. We shipped 200
trainloads of raisins, or 1000 carloads, over

tinued Rev. Haskins, that has taken
up the question aud through it's efforts
you are here today to testify to the prac.
tica bility OF the enterprise. Assurances
have reached me that money will be
forthcoming to build the road if this
meeting takes the proper eteos."
The speaker believed that road from
Fort TETON to Newhsll was not prac.
tic Bile as tina. route would cost from $50.
900 to 500 900 per mile for constructing,
without tunneling. On the TETON pass
are 25 or 30 miles OF difficult road, with
at least psr cent grads, that will cost
at least s4.00O,0O0, aud for tunnaling
100000. A road from Helpers to
Bakersfield could not be constructed, &C.
eording to his idea, Tor less than 81, $780,
600.
On q shipment of 735 carloads of
wheat from the foothills, the Southern
Pacific has charged $S4. 600 for freight.
Tho railroad charged $3.50 per ton
freight. and the shipper had to pay So
per ton for hauling, making total
expense OF IS. 30 per ton. Ga the con-
templated road wheat could be shipped
at cost Of IS. 80 per ton. The people OF
the Antelope valley, Rev. Hsskius de.
clared, were ready to grade the roadbed
for the entire distance through that
section and would raise 5000. 200.

full boycott on the merchants of this

as a reason of the boycott that Decatur

probable outcome OF the boycott.
