MUSICAL NOTES

TIE Los Angeles theater was fairly well
filed last evening for the concert given
under Mr.. George FELTON, manageme ent.
A programme was offered that was very
good, and the Performance generally was
above the average. Mr.. Marquardt S
mum bers gave him ample opportunity for
versatility of treatment, and although
his playing lacks color and depth. his
technique is admirable. Mrs. Marquardt
makes all there is to make CT the harp.
and her choice of mum pers last night
showed it to its best advantage.
Mis- de Russy- Berry has seldom sung
better here. Her rendition OF the deli
cious flower song from Faust was most
artistic; and in response to the cordial
applause She sang little German song
Charminglv.
Mrs. Annie Van Arnam RicoId WAS
heard here for the first time last evening,
and in Arditi's II Bacco she showed
very powerful mezzo-soprano voice of
wide range and much teyibility. Mr..
Werner too was in particularly good
voice and in Tosti's My Dream the rich
ness ana smoothness were well displayed.
Mr.. Thomas V. Wilde was the accom-
panist, and in nearly every number the
piano was made obtrusive. whils his
treatment of the A fiat polunase by
Chopin that he played as solo number,
was inexcusablv careless.

THE cONTAGION OF VIOLENCE

Les Angeles is evidently getting the
tail end-let us hope it is the latter--of
the epidemic OF violence that has recent
ly swept the country. Not content with
its harvest in the chief city Of the coast,
it has descended upon us, and this city
has been the scene of more homIcides and
suicides in the last month than in any
three months in all its history. Unques-
tionably murder and self-destructon are
akin to certain pestlential physical diseas-
es in the element OF contagion they pos
sess. To the murderously inclined and
morbid minded each murder and suicide
is a moving example to the individual
thirsting for the blood OF another or dis
contented with his own existence. as
the case may be. There is no doubt that
the ease with which many murd erars
have escaped adequate punishment for
their crimes has largely contributed to
the cheapening OF human life in the esti-
nation OF the desperately inclined or in
those possessed with the belief that they
have some grievan which can only be
satisfactorily avenged by tine taking OF
life. But the fact that these crimes oc-
cur at certain periods with abnormal fre-
quency, following one after another in
rapid succession, would apparently dem
onstrate that example is as potent n
the precipitation OF action in the fold OF
human slaughter as in any other.

A REPUBLICAN PRODUCT

An estee med contemporary has gone
into an elaborate study of the hobo qucs-
ton. and is seeking to excite public sym
pathy for the professional tramp. The
condition of things it describes is GER
talniv not that which would prove attrac-
tive TO men of refined tastes. but it
should never be overlooked III discussing
the tramp pre- blem, that there are two
distinct classes OF these wanderers-those
who wander from necessity and those
who wander from choice. The former
are product of the present Democratic
sytem of managing public affairs, and
deserve every sym pathy. avery assistance
and every kindness from their fellow
men; the latter are the parasites OF soc!-
ety. and should be made to labor for the
pubic good. Evening Express.
The Herald is seeking-and succeeding
to excite public in dignation against
the barbarism of the city Jail and the
chaingang, regardless OF whether the vic
tins are professional o. unprofessional
tramps. There is vast difference be-
tween mere unattractiveness and healthy
work. and the peastly and degrading con-
ditions governing in our city's penal in
stitution. We do ot.believe the Am er-
can public, and especially that part OF it
in Los Angeles, is favorable to compell-
ing men guilty of either voluntary or in
voluntary poverty, TO endure the condi
ton so graphically depicted by our re-
porter in the Herald OF Sunday, yester
day and today. Men are not helped up
in life by brutality and degradation.
The variety OF the tramp is immaterial.
He is still human being, and while he
may not demand kindness, he is entitled
to humane treatment.
That there are two classes of tramps-
those from necessity and those from
choice-may be so. But the latter is the
evolutionary product OF the former. Men
we're not originally tramps. They have
from time immemorial been opposed to
the plane OF the tramp. The latter is a
symptom OF social conditions produced by
the political theory OF which the Express
is such an energetic and insistent expo
nent the theory that the government
IS instituted for the purpose of granting
special privileges to the few at the ex-
)ense of the many. 1t was not until the
party of great moral ideas and mighty
immora methods inflicted itself upon
the United States that the grand army
of American tramps commenced its
weary, ceaseless march across the country.
AS an effect of Republican causes. the
tramp is glitterng success, and we hard
ly wonder that Republican organs should
desire that he remain mmured and OBJ
scared in the jails of the land.

The Burbank. The second night of the

large house last evening. The sawmill
scene in the third act is a splendid piece
of staging and is one of the best things
OF its kind seen in Los Angeles. 1t Is
most exciting and rouses the au dience to
heated pitch. The specialties are far
above the usual standard and are the
rincipal attraction of the play. What
