DISCRIMINATING

A little 5-year-old girl was visiting In
the city with her mother. They slept
on "shut up" bedstead. which by day
did duty as q bookcase. The little girl
refused to kneel beside the bed and say
her prayers.
"Why, Mamie," cried the mother. IL
am astonished at you for being such .
naughty girl. II you don't say your
prayers while you are here you will for
get them by the time you get home."
"Guess I amt going to say any
prayers to that old, rickety bookcase
kind of bedp said the little girl.
When she returned home, she knett
beside her bed, and glibly went through
with "Now lay me-" and added after
the amen, "There, amt forgot that
old chestnut yet."-To Date.

Phil goes to bed at p. m.. rises at and

Counts Mankota and Shoshi IIya, who
will accompany Count Yamagata, the
special envoy of the Japanese government
to assist at the coronation of the czar at
the Kremlin. Moscow, next month, are
in the city. Count YamaRata is a passen-
ger on the steamship Celtic, due
at San Francisco next Saturday.
He, as we'll as Counts Mankota
and Shoshi Ilya, distinguished them
selves in the recent war be-
tween Japan and China. All three were
wounded at the battle at Ping Yang; they
were side by side at the assault and cap
ture of Port Arthur, and for the gallant
conduct of Count Yamagata on the latter
occasion, he was selected for the special
embassy to Russia. He was for sometime
the representative of Japan in Korea and
his intimate knowledge of Russian diplo-
fit for the service. Counts Mankota and
Shoshi llya came over on the Belgic some
time since, on furlough, to perfect them-
selves on the condition of their fellow
countrynen in the United States, to report
ON the attitude of some organiza-
tions on the coast hostile to Japanese labor
and to recover their health. After max
ing themselves familiar with the public feel
ing as toJapanese in SanFrancisco Stockton
Sacramento, Oakland and the bay towns:
they have been quietly visiting the more
important centers in Southern California.
Both speak English imperfectly, but
French, German and Russian with fluency.
Their report of the socialis.ic demcpstra-
tions against Japanese labor, and Japanese
restaurants, is an exhaustive one, and
minute in it's details. Both gentlemen are
delighted with Los Angeles and ther beau
tiful suburbs. and having the national pas
sionate love of flowers, the unending vistass
of blooming front yards form the chief
sources OF their pleasure.
Z. W. Fitch, of the business department
of Puck, was in the city yesterday. Al.
Schwartzman, the proprietor of the clever
comic paper was here three weeks ago in
company with H. G. Bunner, the editor.
Mr.. Bunner has not been we'll since his
friend Joseph Keppler's death ard came
out to the coast to recuperate. He improv-
ed much during his stay in Los Angeles.
and Schwartzman felt 30 little anxiety
about him that he went back to New York.
Mr.. Bunner left the Westminster for San
Francisco, but the bleak, penetrating winds
that rave in the modern Alsatia were too
severe for him. He caught cold and has
been at deaths door. Yesterday he was
somewhat better, but the gravest fears are
entertained as 10 his ultimate recovery.
Mr.. Fitch is an old writer for the press
and was in Los Angeles twenty years ago.
He finds few of his former comrades, but
is aslonished at the growth of the
city. He predicts great future for the
metropolis of Southern California. much of
which is due to the courteous attitude of
representatives of the press. MIR. Gunner
will be brought here as soon as his condi-
ton admits of the fatigue of travel.

Frank H. Lathrop, the young gentleman
who got into such a scrape through the
giddiness of the newly-wed bride of the
Minnesota capitalist is rapidly recovering
from his wound. To The Herald re-
porter he said yesterday that the lady's
husband had behaved in most chivalrous
manner and displayed much anxiety about
his adversary's recovery, as soon as
he learned the facts of the case.
1t appears that the lady. who
is much beloved by her family,
and friends, has. since the death OF her
first husband suffered from periodical at
tacks of temporary insanity occasioned by
obscure physical troubles. She and her
husband have been quite reconcled and
they left yesterday afternoon for the east.
Mr.. Lathrop is the grandson of de-
ceased millionaire manufacturer of Fall
River, Mass, and on attaining his major
ity last year came into possession of a
princely fortune. The young man is known
to many of Los Angeles most respected
residents and is we'll spoken of as being a
good son to his widowed mother and of lln-
usually exemplary habits. He has been
negotiating for the purchase OF beautiful
ranch close to the city.

to make both ends meet and TO keep up
