MARRYAT ON MARRIAGE


If the mistakes of marriage" could be
prevented by thorough knowledge of the
science of phrenology and physiognomy
parents and guardians would doubtless
welcome their addition, even if to be paid
for as extras to the modern school cur
rilcum. In a lecture delivered in the
French room of the St James hall last
night by Miss Florence Marryat, the ut
ility of such instruction was strongly
urged, says the London Daily News, as
likely to enable potential lovers to judge
whether each possessed such primary and
complimentary attributes as would con-
duce TO welded bliss. Sad to relate, the
speaker took an exceedingly gloomy view
of the average status of connubial happi-
ness, and emphaticaIly pronounced that
the majority or united couples round mar
rage TO be a failure worse even tha&
penal servitude, since the convict was at
least something left to himself" This
alarming state of domestic felicity was.
Miss Marryat considered, due to the fact
that young couples saw too little of one
another before the ceremony in church,
and too much afterwards. A typical
courtship was vigorously described, and
then. in the often ridiculous and fatal
honeymoon" the youthful pair quickly
exhausted all they had to talk about, not
to mention the discovery that their tastes
differed in sports and amusements. Some
good advice not TO NEEDLE. not TO be inqui
stive, and not to be jealous followed, but
when the lecturess pleaded for a little
more independence which should allow
husbands sometimes to spend a few days
Unaccompanied on the moors or in Paris.
the gentlemen present made up for the
smallness OF their numbers by the vigor
of their applause, while the ladies, in
strong majority, manifested polite signs
OF distinct disapproyal

A Youth With Penchant For Guns

On the might of the 10th the store of
the Southern California Arms company,
Joseph Singer, proprietor. at 11S West
First street, was burglarized. The
thief had gained an entrance by means
of false key. A cursory investigation
by the proprietor showed that a very
valuable single-hammer double-barrel-
ed shotgun, of which there are but two
specimens in the state, the price of each
being $100, had been carried away.
The matter was reported to the police
and placed in the hands of Detective
Hawley, who last night arrested youth
named Louis Baker for the burglary
The officer not only recovered the CUR
but also Winchester rifle, four super
fine pocket knives, three valuable re-
volvers, one razor and 500 cartridges
which Baker had stolen from the South.

sides these goods Hawley found two
dynamos, the proceeds of another burg.

the proceeds of a housebreaking expedi.
ton.
Louis Baker lives with his parents

The number of these peddlers is various
ly estimated at between twenty and
thirty. They come from Artesia, Clear
water, Orange, Santa Ana, Downey, An
aheim, Santa Monica and other points.
Their business Is to drive through the
country and buy up all the young calves
they can find. They get them for little
or nothing and after preparing them for
market they can sell the stuff for or )
cents per pound, provided they can get
it past the inspector.
Mr. Hughes begins his work at
o'clock and his mornings duty is to re-
peatedly visit the meat stores. He has
only to keep record of the stock of veal
at each store in order to be able to in
spect any new purchases. The seizure
Of unlawful meat is done with little GER
emony. If it is found in a peddler's
wagon or elsewhere Mr.. Hughes simply
cuts long gashes in the carcass and fills
the cuts with coal oil. Hardly day
passes but what one or two peddlers are
caught and on some days as many as
five are captured. There has been de-
cided falling off in the business, how
ever, owing to the vigilance Of the in
spector. For the first offense no arrests
are made, but If peddler is caught a
second time he is prosecuted.
The inspection of slaughter houses is
easier than the work of detecting un-
scrupulous meat peddlers, but there is
no law by which the inspector can com
pei the owners of such places to keep
them clean. Under the law, however,
the butcher cannot refuse to allow the
inc Of fc lx q
means of learning from what source he
may expect to find diseased meat, this
right is most important. One of the
worst places in the county is on the Sar
Fernando road, about three miles from
the city. The place is at the end of q
long lane, and to reach it one must pass
horse slaughtering house, where old
horses are killed and cut up for various
uses. Then comes the slaughter house.
less than 200 yards away. The pen is
so filthy that the odor is almost visible.
About $50 yards beyond is the plant OF
the city dead animal contractor, where
dead horses, mules, ETC., are cut up anc
boiled for the grease and, bones. a
wind in either direction blows the stencil
from the two horse establishment past
the slaughter house where meat for the
local market is prepared.
Another place, almost equally filthy, is
on the same road, a short distance farth-
er from the city.
If any member of the city council
thinks one man can properly inspect all
of these places, he should accompany
the inspector on one days trip over the
city. There is work enough for three
men in such an office. The health of the
community is, to a great extent, in the
hands of this officer, and so great is his
task that it is a physical impossibility
for him to do all the work.

shocked at this, but did not Jesus say
heaven was within, and it follows that
