The Tain street r1atter

There is no change in the status of the
Main street paving matter. and the prop
erty owners are apparently determined
to put up with any amount of inconven-
ience rather than admit that the con-
tractors now have any rights on the
street. Business men on the street are
losing money every day, but there ap-
pears to be no relief for them.

AT THE THEATERS

LOS ANGELES THEATER.-Mr.
Clyde Fitch, the American dramatist.
who gave us Beau Brummel and a num-
Der of other noteworthy comedies. is re-
sponsible for the adaptation into the
shape of play of Henri Murger's fa-
nous French novel, La Vie de Bofleme.
Every French man and woman is ac-
quainted with this book, as it seems to
breathe the very essence of French Bo-
hemian life, and there is diffused
throughout its pages a delight vivac-
ity, charged with tender pathos. All
or these qualities Mr.. Fitch, it is said,
has very clevery transposed from the
pages to the boards. The pretty love
story or the artist, who turns away
from his uncle's wish that he shall mar
ry a society woman for the trackless
realms OF Bohemia, in the Latin quarter
or Paris, where heart beat is consid-
ered more important than bank ac-
count, and an emotion means more than
a bright prospect, is projected upon the
stage by means of skillfully joined Sc
ries of nicely concerted scenes.
Mr.. William Faversham appears as
this artist and Miss Viola Allen imper-
sonates Mimi, a typical little milliner of
the Latin quarter. j. E. Dodson and
Ferdinand Gottschalk are capitally cast
as grotesques of the period, and a very
charming character of French girl is
played by the, piquant ingenue of the
company. Miss Ida Conquest. Others
IN the cast are Annie Irish, Robert Eide,
son, e. Y. Backus, w. H. Crompton,
Jamison l.. Pinney, May Robson. Miss
Jane Harwar, etc. Bohemia will be pre-
sented tonight and Saturday night at the
Los Angeles theater
THE Observation-Disclosures seems
to please the enthusiastic audiences
who attend the Burbank each evening.
1t will run tn balance of the week, with
special Saturday matinee. Miss Gass-
man, Gilbert and Goldie and Emmett
Sheridan are already great favorites in
their songs and specialties. Next week
Manager Malim has reserved the best
card for the opening of that popular
playhouse in the shape of the popular
and well-known Grover Alcazar Com
pany of Comedians. They will make
their initial bow before the Burbank pa
irons on Sunday, August 30 and con.
tinue during the week in the glorious
comedy, Everybodys Friend.

as logic can make it, on which you
are to build shelter from raging
doubts and the fierce spirit of antag-
onism to God.
There Is Il larger field of usefulness
there than here, which is the second
TACT. Heaven is not the l0unging
place for indolcnt souls, the Sleepy
Hollow of the universe, where one re-
poses on eternal river banks and sings
himself into mental n0nentity. A
man wakes up in heaven, after this
restless dream of earthly life, and
sees that God has glorious work for
him to do--work in his own develop
mcnt and helpful work for others.
That son has not ended his education
because he has died, but rather has
just begun IT., and begun it under
better auspices and better teachers.
So far as he is concerned he has
rcaped a great advantage and would
be sorry if you could call him back to
these narrow quarters. He has moth
ing to regret although you think you
yourself have much.
The third fact is that the door of
heaven is not bolted on either side,
but swings both ways. There are
those who 60 In and those who come
out. A great throng of released souls
are constantly finding their way up
ward to the new life, and another
throng are constantly coming down to
minister to our comfort. Heaven and
earth are thus forever intcrmingled,
and in your home there are unseen
visitants who could tell you strange
news if you had ears to hear it. You
cannot call for help but the Father
hears you, neither can you reach out
your hands but some one takes them.
The coming Of the departed when
they are needed is truth that under
| liCS fNtll - SbtUi VI IVllSIpll hlibNll w
the human race, and is chiefly Illus
trated by Christianity.
1t is the fate of men and women to
weep. but tears may become stepping
stones to higher thoughts, and the
longings which cannot be represScd
and will not be satisfied until the day
of eternity dawns may be rounds in
some Jacobs ladder whose t p is
hidden by the clouds. You may
mourn, but your mourning should be
based on resignation. The light will
break on your darkness sometime, and
then from your coign Of heavenly van
tage you will he surprised that you
believed so little and that your belief
was harrassed by so many doubts.
There is nothing in this world so
nearly priceless as the cheerful faith
that a morrow shall come when you
shall once again fold to "a warm en-
brace those who silently stole away
into the shadows of death.

Must they not wuiti
But IL it backward spring
On noiseless hinge.
And phantoms come and 90
Because they love US.

Our entering:
We for the dead can wait;
And when It's DER
May sleep with them, perchancc,
Or In the souls advance
Find, like the butterfly, our sllded wings,
And pass the gate.

Live for the loved
Whose hearts are breaking here;
Make this sad world less drear;
Heed rather human wall than spirit song,
And work and wait.

GEORG e WASHINGTON.
WHERE WASHINGTON WAS DUBBED
TIE FATHER oFuIs COUNTRY.

The American Catholic News says:
"Philadelphia has an historic Catholic
church in st. Marys, on Fourth street,
above Spruce. 1t was founded in 1863
by Father Robert Harding, S. j., who
spoke against British tyranny as
early as 1863. 1t was in this church
of st. Mary on July 1, l776, that mass
and Te Deum were sung 'aS fitting
observances of the natal day Of the
United States OF America 10y the grace
of God free and independent" After
the surrender Of CORVALLIS a mass Of
thanksgiving was offered in st. Mary's
and among those who attended the
services were General Washington,
General COmte de Rochambean, Gen
eral Marquis de Lafayette, General
Baron VlOmenil, the Rev. John Car
roll, afterward Bishop, and many
other distinguished friends Of liberty.
1t was also in this historic church
that the first observance of the birth
day of George Washington was held,
on February %, 1900, at which an
culogy Of The Father Of His Country
was delivered by the Rev. Matthew
Carr, @. S. A. In the report Of that
eulogy in the Pennsylvania Gazette of
that week the editor says: Father
Carr has given Gen. George Washing
ton a name which will live forever,
"The Father of His Country" Ger
tainly the Catholics Of America have
good reason to be proud of this vencr-
able editlce'"

Keep your eye on the newspaper and
see which of the merchants wants
your custom and is sufficiently courte-
Gus to invite you to call. There Is
much more in advertising than you
think. 1t is not only to tell of his
goods that a man advertisos. but to
invite people who read-the thinking,
the intelligent, to pay him visit and
judge for themselves as to price and
quality Of what he offers for sale.
Don't make any mistake about it.
They are Just as much interested In
knowing where to buy to advantage
as the advertiser is in selling his
goods.

HOSPITAL REQUIRE EMENTS.
Investigation by a Committee
From the Federation of
Women.
The instruments in Use Are Charac-
teriZed As Instruments of
Torture.

The Receiving Hospital was visited
yesterday by Mrs. Fairbanks, Mrs. Farr
and Miss Bruner, committee appointed
by the Federation of Women to investi-
gate and report as to its condition.
The ladies were courteously received by
DR.. We'll and every facility was afforded
them in their search for information.
Mrs. Keane, the matron, spent several
hours with them, and they expressed
themselves as very much gratified at the
assistance which the matron had given
them.
1.-The federation" said Mrs. Farr, had
received such startling reports as to the
hospital that it was deemed necessary to
appoint committee to make an investi-
cation, and we were selected.
I'VE have found the reports very much
exaggerated. The wards and all things
about the hospital were as clean and tidy
as can be expected and personally notice
an improvement in that respect since
was there last year.
'The surgical instruments in use in the
hospital are nothing but instruments of
torture. 1t is q shame that such an insti.
tuition should be equipped with instru-
ments that no self-respecting surgeon
would use in his private practice. COM
plete set of new instruments of the most
modern kind should be provided without
delay.
There is not enough sheeting and there
is also much need of a supply of pans and
other necessary articles which need not be
enumerated.
The accom- modations in cases of con-
finement is of the poorest and something
must be done for the comfort OF women
brought to the hospital for this purpose.
There should be a separate ward for such
cases.
'Insane patients should not be detained
in the hospital. We find that the noise
they make during the night keeps other
patients from enjoying much needed sleep
and on sanitary grounds it is also unde-
sirable to have them there.
'These and other matters will be en-
bodied in a report to be sent TO a meeting
OF the federation on Monday night and
then it will be seen what action will be
taken"

Secretary McComb of the Society for the
Prevention OF Cruelty to Children that
Miss NJ; g. Stebbins, principal of the LIE
Conte Primary School on Powell street,
nad cruelty beaten his 12-year-oid son,
joseph Jr. Cantor also claims that when
ne remonstrated with the principal she
lnsulted him. He declared that he would
call the attention of the Board of Educa-
ton to the matter.
Miss Stebbins' story puts the case in a
very different light, and her statements
are corroborated by all the teachers in the
school, She said the boy is impudent and
olsobedlent. and given to playing truant.
AFTER running away from school for sew
eraI days the lad, accompanied by his
parent, went back to school She told the
1ather that the boy deserved punishment,
ana demanded that it be inflicted by
cantor. When tie parent refused she
TOOK the regulation strap and dealt the lad
several strokes on the palm of the hand.
At this Cantor waxed wrath and shook his
tlst in the lady's face, SO she SAID, and
threatened to cause her all sorts OF trouble.

FOR DURRANT's APPEAL.
Voluminous Bill of Exceptions Filed
by His Attorneys With the
Court.

The bill of exceptions by which it is
hoped to secure for Theodore Durrant a
new trial has been filed. Eugene Deuprey
offered it in court yesterday morning, and
as he did SO he moved for further stay of
proceedings in the case.
A stay OF proceedings until February II
was granted, and this means that until
February II, anyway, Durrant will not
have to go to San Quentin, but may re-
main IN the County Jail.
The bill OF exceptions contains 1872 pages.
and there are 232 objections which, in the
form of exceptions, are cited as error. The
greater part of the important testimony
given at the trial is also included in the
document. Objection is made on every
point-to the impanelins of the jury, to
the examination OF jurors, to the allowing
of tie peremptory challenges of the prose-
cution, to the admittance of certain eyi-
dence, TO allowing the clothes of Blanche
Lamont TO be draped upon wire dress
makers fgure--in fact, TO any and every
thing that in any way went against Dur
rant, whether point of evidence or circum-
stance OF trial. All this will have to be
