interesting paper on the subject OF Poultry
on the Farm"
At the afternoon session Prof. John Ham
ilton, of the Department of Agriculture, of
Pennsylvania, urged the farmers of Mary
land to use all the modern conveniences
known to the farmer. The farmers are be-
hind the time, said he, because they are too
slow. Mr.. s. F. Barber, practical dairy
man of Pennsylvania, during the course Of
his remarks upon clarifying and Profits"

able industry is being neglected by farmers.

the vestry and advanced by the middle aisle
to the church door to meet the bride. The
little curly haired flower bearer then led the
way again to the chancel, followed by the

loss for ammunition with which to load
their popguns they can use any number of
quotations from the leading Republican
paper printed west of New York the Chicago
Tribune. For instance, on the Goth of
March, 1890, that paper said concerning
the Mckinley bill: "Tariff duties are taxes
Higher duties will increase the burden.
The people are all users of leather,
and will hardly welcome legislation adopted
for the express purpose or making them
pay more for boots and shoes.'
September 20. 1890, The Tribune said :
1.-THE great cheapening in the cost of steel
manufacturing has occurred in spite of the
tariff, not in consequence of it. When Nc
Kinley or any other man undertake es to
say the large reduction in cost of steel
was due to the $2S duty, he does so at
the expense of truth. The credit for that is
due to the inventive brain of Bessemer. And
the rule holds good with regard to the
prices of all other articles. A tariff tends
to keep them up. That is the funda-
mental purpose of high duties"
1t is by no means certain that Ohio
William will be the Republican nominee,
but if he is, THE HERALD will cheer
fully furnish to as many of his supporters
as may apply for them a long list of editor
ial utterances from the Tribune on Nc
kinleyism, similar to those above quoted.
There is nothing mean about THE HERALD.

THE GREATER LOS ANGELES

The result of the annexation election of
Saturdays is to add considerably to the pop
ulation that will be covered by the name
Los Angeles. 1t Is safe to say that the
100000 mark is passed. But just what
the figure is, is matter of estimate,
purely, and it will no. receive the recogni-
ton abroad tha. is accorded an official as
certainment. Whatever moral effect there
is to be had from an enlarged population,
we should have. To that end it would seem
advisable to have a census of the city. as
now expanded. The last federal census,
that of 1890, gave this place trfle over
$4,000, and no doubt in the minds of the
eastern people who have no other means
of information than the census returns,
that figure about represents our present
size. 1t will be at least five years before
another federal census is published and be-
fore that date we can reasonably expect to
have in the municipality at least
is too long for a growing, pro-
gressve city like this to wait
for another official declaration on the mat
ter of its population. In the last half de-
cade Los Angeles has practically doubled
the number of its inhabitants, added i'm.
mensely to its buildings. multiplied its
commercial and Industrial establishments.
graded, paved and sidewalked streets by
the score, laid miles of sewer and taken on
generally the aspects and attributes of
modern metropolis. We should have q
census that will bring out these things,
that will tell the tale of us as We are, and not
like the last federal census, as we were in
1890. Let us have city census.

AT THE THEATERS

THE BURRANK.-This evening the long
looked for Lily of Killarney will receive it's
initial production i'll this city by the Car]e-
ton Opera company, and the event will be
Witnessed by an audience that will fill the
large theater. The Lily of Killarney is the
opera that has made the Carleton company
famous of late. 1t has been rendered in
the principal cities of the United States
and Canada with unprecedented success
The scenery will be feature of the excel
lent presentation and about the best seen
in Los Angeles. The cave scene, painted
by one of the leading artists of New York
city, is said to be mastery piece of work.
The Lily of Killarney will be given this
evening. tomorrow night and on Wednes-
day and Saturday evenings and at the
matinee on Saturday afternoon. At the
Wednesday matinee The Mikado will re-
ceive its last rendition. Thursday night
Fra Diavolo and The Charity Girls are the
Bohemian Girl and The Charity Girls con-
stitute the bill.
Next Sunday evening closes the engage
ment of the Carleton company, which has
played the most successful stay of any
company that has visited Los Angeles.
The operas given would reflect credit upon
theaters charging 81 80, and it is no won
der the house has been crowded nightly.
Popular prices are what the public desire,
especially when the entertainment has
been of as high standard as that given by
the Carleton company.

THE ORPHEUM-This house will present
one of the best programmes tonight that
it has ever been the pleasure of any audi.
ence to witness. The greatest vaudeville
artists that it is possible to secure have
been brought together to form one bill,
and the result is what Manager Petrich
considers the strongest aggregation ever
appearing in this city. The following
teams, with their wide regulations, are
sufficient to guarantee an excellent show.
Charles B. Ward, the original Bowery boy,
author of THE Band Played On" and one
of the greatest OF modern comedians: Les
De Filippi, Partisan grotegque dancers,
with a breezy lot of novelties the Ander-
sons, popular colored comedians; The
Athos family of six lively acrobats: Danta
Brothers. musical tumblers; the Wiltons,
two OF the most daring and humorous per-
formers on the triple horizontal bar. and
Rossley Brothers, merry duo OF Irish
fun-makers.
Les ANGELES THEATER. The Stanford
Mandolin and Glee club boys are IN the
city and will give their concert at the Los
Angeles theater tomorrow evening. The
boys we're conspicuous on the streets yes
terday, wearing their college colors in the
shape of a red band on a straw hat. They
are jolly set of typical college students,
and it is safe to say that they will both en-
tertain and amuse all who attend. This is
the first visit of the club to this city, and
they come here with record of successful
concerts. In San Jose, San Francisco,
Oakland and Fresno they played to excel.
lent houses and were greeted royalty. So
we'll pleased we're the people of Fresno
that the club will play return concert
there on next Monday evening. The pro-
gram which is to be given here has been
carefully prepared and thoroughly re-
hearsed.

technique faultless and brilliant, and he is
. master Of the bow. The first number he
essayed was Ernst's Concerto Pathetique,
abounding in difficulties, of execution
remark able finesse and facility.
A loud demand for more was met by a
beautiful rendering of Schumann's exqui-
site Evening Song, a perfect little gem,
both in composition and execution. On
dricek also gave two diverse examples of
his own work, barcarole and fantasie,
entitled Smetana's Bartered Bride. In the
latter there were some intensely intricate
passages, which admirably displayed the
virtuoso's mastery of his instrument. Some
staccato phrases of harmoncs were played
with marvelously smooth and clear effect.
His last selection was Paganini's Witches
Dance, weird and fantastic movement,
which entirely captivated the audience,
who again importuned him for more. he
replied with very delicious rendering OF
Raffs sweet Cavatina, and the eloquent
expression of his playing was perfectly
illustrated in this number.
There is a splendor and magnificence
about Maternas voice that is at once pro-
foundly impressive. piano seems alto
gsther an inadequate accompaniment to
her grand singing, and one can hardly hear
her without ones mind reverting to
her many and great performances at Bay
reuh with full orchestra under the great
Meister's own dictatorship. One can also
we'll imagine that Wagner established her
reputation as the greatest interpreIress of
his work. Her dramatic vocalization is
remarkable example of the resource and
control of wonderful voice. The grand
aria from Tannhaeuser was her first selec-
tion and was grandly given. AS an encore
she sang ballad entitled My Messengers,
by Gericke. The Lebestod from Tristan
and Isolde was rendered with fine dra-
matte feeling, and there was a thrilling
beauty in every note. The concluding
number of the program was fifty enough
Gounod's arrangement of Bach's divinely
beautiful Ave Maria with violin obligato.
The nuances were exquisitely brought out
by both voice and instrument. 1t was the
most artistic ending of most artistic con-
cert.
lsadore Luckstone proved himself not
merely a capable and sympathetic accom-
panist, but a pianist of no mean order.
Remarkable dexterity of execution and a
firm, if somewhat heavy. touch were dis
played in his rendering of Liszt's Rhap-
sodie No 6. The finale was taken at a re-
markably rapid rate, but in the accelerated
tempo no note was lost. The effort was
rewarded by very hearty applause and the
pianist responded with Godard's Valse
Chromatique; another example of re-
markabIe powers of execution. Chopin's
Polonaise in A flat did not seem altogether
to agree with the critical audience, and
certainly it was played in a somewhat pom
derous fashion.
1t 10 a pity that there is not another op-
portunty of hearing these great artists
here. Owing to a crowded date-sheet Man.

M'KlNLEY AS A REPRESENTED R

In the event of High Tariff William
being the Republican candidate for presi-
dent the tariff question will be the one
most talked about during the campaign.
1t is possible that Sweet William may hold
some opinions on such questions as money,
taxation. foreign relations and other mat
ters in which the people generally are in
terested. II he has opinions on anything
besides the tariff he carefully keeps them
to himself. The nature of them is OBJ
scured from the public. AS candidate
for president Major Mckinley will repre-.
sent nothing but extreme protectionism,
which SIS tariff policy calculated and
intended TO do precisely what the United
States supreme court, a few years ago,
strongly denounced in the following lam
guage:
ITO lay with one hand the power of gov
ernment on the property of the citizen, and
