Am unkr was adjudged insane yes
terday in Judge McKinley's court. It
waa known that he had only charged
fifteen cent* for a job which it took him
two houra to finish. That, settled it.
Yehtbhpay was the warmest day we
have experienced this month, yet tbe
heat was not at all oppressive, and n
cool breeze toned it down toe delightful
temperature. Indeed a more charming
day could not be doairod, and it was
greatly enjoyed by the ladies who ap
peared in force on thu Btreets in summer
toilets that were in fine keeping with
the brightbess of the weather.
Tnx conditional purchase of the city |
water bonds by the house of Harris oi
Co. has receivod ita quietus. Tho par- I
ties have had a legal opinion upon their
validity which ia unfavorable, and they
yesterday advised the mayor that they
would not buy them. Tim amendment
to the constitution adopted at. the last
election requires that municipal bonds
shall run forty instead of twenty years,
and aa these bonds were issued payable
in twenty years, their validity is held
to be apocryphal. Judge Dillon of New
York doea not believe that tbe bonds are
valid for thia and other reasons, and
advisee that a new election be held if the
objections are to be cured. It is doubt
ful, with this opinion iv view, whether
tbe bonds can be sold at ull; and, if so,
the city will have to order a new elec
tion should it determine to carry out
tbe scheme.
The whole incident of the vieit of the
Princess Eulalia to tho I'uited Statea
hae been highly agreeabl". with the
single exception of the tnobbith inter
lude of the Four Hundred in New York.
It ia quite natural that the deacendant
of Isabella should receive an enthusias
tic greeting in New York and Chicago
on such an interesting anniveroaiy.
This ie by no means the li ret occasion on
which royal and imperial personages
have visited this country. Early in the
centuty Jerome Bonaparte, the brnthir
of Napoleon 1., visited Baltimore and
took occasion while there to marry Mist
Patterson. After tho overthrow of :he
empire another of tho emperor's broth
ers honored a New Jersey town with hie
presence for some yearr. William IV.
of England, while a sailor boy, tpent
sometime in New York city early iv
the century. Louis Philippe, who waa
a much traveled man, rut in quite a
while in tbe United States, penetrating
as far west as the head ol tho Ohio, at
Pittsburg. The Prince of Wales visited
this country in 1860, under the tutelage
of the Duke o! Newcastle. Prince Na
poleon —the famous Plon-Ploo —paid us
an extended visit while the civil war was
still raging, and the Grand Duke Alexis
• made a triumphal entry it;!o New York
in 1871 or 1872. The last royal visitor we
can recall was the Princess Louise, who.
by the way, aecoinpeniud by the Mar
suie of Lome, paid Los Angeles and the
Ban Gabriel valley a brief vieit. She
would have remained here if it had not
been for the fact that ehe could not get
suitable accominodntiona at that time.
Falling in this effort she went to the
West Indies, where she remained lor
several months.
THE SPECIAL SESSION ASSURED.
* We can scarcely claim that the preai
dent has decided to rail a special session
of cnivjrresa oH of ileference to the sug-
geatioti of tho If kk.u.o, bat liif convorsa
tlon had hy Mr. Cleveland with a Wash
ington correspondent came ao pet on our
suggestion as to its urgent necessity that
we can at least claim that the utterances
of the paper and the president were
eynchronoua. Whether it is a cane of
Ihe mountain coming to Mahomet or
Mahomet going to the mountain in all
one to us no lung as we secure the extra
Bession, which In to he called not earlier
then the first nor later than the middle
Ol ntember. These da ten an-entirely
acceptable. The knowledge tb*t 009
--press will he in session, and win opply
itttelf to adjusting tbe weighty matters
on hand, will of itself have a great effect
in quieting whst looks like an incipient
panic amongat the bankers of the oast.
The Melt in ley bill and tne silver and
Chinese questions will then receive
early, and. doubtless, Winn consideration.
The newspnpera are already busy fore
casting the issue ol the mlver question ;
end toe Washington Htar, which in gen
erally well informed, says that tho Hher
man ailver set will bo repealed. This Is
hy no mesne improbable. The great
crime involved in the demonetization of
nilver in 1878 will thus be supplemented
by another at the dictation of Errgliab
and other European capitalists, and
silver will be sent hurtling down to join
copper as one of the base metals. This
is the shape that feudal robbery takes
in the present year of grace. The gold
bugs are bound to have their pound of
flesh at all hnzards. It is smuttier chap
ter In the grand modern drama of mak
ing the rich richer and the poor poorer.
Can great robbing infamies like the
demonetization of silver be accomplished
without some form of retribution? We
do not think they can. Tho masses,
finding their condition greatly harassed
by tho stringency in the money market,
brought about by the absolute demon
etization of silver, will begin metaphys
ical diecuasions about debt. Lees Mian
a hundred yeare ago a creditor could
take hi* debtor, who eitaer could not or
would not pay, and put him in jail, and
keep him there. The sensitive human
ity of the iiire changed thia fnroeiouß
dispensation, aud the creditor no longer
owns tr% debtor, body, boots and
breeches. We have no doubt, and we
are not all pessimistic by temperament,
that the ultimata effect of forcing the
adoption of the single gold standard,
and thus exacting the payment of all
debts in a dearer medium and one
harder to get, than that which waa un
derstood when tiiH contincts were made,
will be to bring about the repudiation
cf all public debts before this century
has run its course, and the contented
adoption, of the silver standard »■•• the
people vi tne United Huiob. Should
such prate to be the result the capital
ists will liave nobody but tbemaelvea to
blame.
In the intereet of the whole world it
is to be hopod that the Brussels silver
conference will assemble under more
encouraging circumstances than charac
terised ita first session. It ie also to be
hoped that congress will take tbis vital
matter in hand and act wisely in the
promisee. The gold crieis has boen arti
ficially created by the gold bugs to force
tho absolute demonetization of silver.
Congress, will doubtless recognize very
fully tbe responsibility which has de
volved upon it.
THE GREAT ACTOR GONE.
After hie Iout; otruggle with death,
Edwin Hooth sank gently to rest yester
day morning.
It is not extravagant praiso to say that
Booth stood at the very head of his pro
fession in the delineation oi the great
dramatic characters of Shakspeare.
None of his contemporaries have ranked
with Dim in portraying the subtle eccen
tricities of Hamlet, the studied devil
tries of lago, or the calculating devices
of Shylock. (lis genius w:vi hereditary ;
but bis methods were his owu. He \v»s
a close student, and devoted himself so
wholly to his art that he was really a
child in his knowledge of affairs out
side of it.
But whilst Booth exacted tbe admira
tion of the public by his eminence aa au
actor his gentle nature nnd generous im
pulses drew to him tbe hearts of all
men. The public loved liim for his
kindly traits of character, for the sweet
ness of hia disposition, the purity of hia
life and for the broad sympathies that
went out from him to every deserving
man or object. He was, indeed, a
lover of hia kind, and was always ready
to make substantial sacrifices in order to
I help hia follow along. In hia own pro
| fesaion he WM held in the warmest es
teem. He never failed to lend a help
ing hand to the struggling actor, or to
give honest counsel to those who
I needed it.
He waa the victim of a great and un
speakable sorrow which weighed upon
him with the pressure of a mountain for
nearly thirty yeara nnd down to the
eloie of hia life. When his brother J.
Wilkes Booth sped the bullet that
crashed through the brain of Lincoln,
he at the same time struck a deadly
blow at the peaot of mind of hia great
kinsman. He bequeathed to Edrcin a
lingering death that was more cruel than
death itaeli. E I win never spoke of the
fearful act that brought tears to the eyes
of a whole nation but be suffered in
silence, and calmly accepted the gnawing
of the canker worm that had been so
cruelly implanted in his breaßt. It
changed tho cheerfulness of hie disposi
tion to one of continuous sadness; but
it never changed the goodneea ot his
nature nor the kindly impulses which
made him a friend of the friendless and
a vflry help to all in time of trouble.
His death takes away not only a great

genius, but a man whose nature made
him universally beloved.
I'll HitKAi.n is not, generally in the
habit of blowing ita Own horn, although
we are well aware of that really fineaaw
invented by a Missouri journaliat and
which runs, "Whoso bloweth not hiß
own bszoo, the same ahsll not be
blowed." Notwithstanding onr tradi
tional modesty, we cannot forbear call
ing attention to the fact that yesterday's
iaaue of the Hkrai.d was, in many re
spects, one of the most attrsctive news
papers ever issued in California. It
waa, in the first place, a beautifully
printed paper. Then ita "Counterfeit
preaentment" of Kdwin Booth, wbich
waa made by the Hkkai dm own artist,
was one of the very best pieces of work
in its line ever seen in a daily newspa
per any whore in the world. In contrast
to a travesty which appeared in the
columns of our esteemed contemporary,
the Times, under ths head of Edwin T.
Hooth—whoever that may be—it was aa
Hyperion to a Hatyr. Then our illus
trationa of the double tragedy in China
town were of an exceptionally high
grade of art. Those who are friendly to
tho Hkuai.d, and those who are indiffer
ent but desirea liye newspaper,would do
well to open their eyea to the special ex
cellenceof thiß paper,and acquaint their
friends with the result of their obseiva
tions. Now that we have a prompt nnd
early delivery—far surpassing anything
in the previous history of this paper or
of any other paper ever delivered in Los
Angeles—we naturally look for a vastly
extended circulation, and shall aim to
live up to our greatly expanded field of
usefulness.
At a special meeting of the council
hckl yesterday afternoon the proposition
to purchase four hundred acres on the
Providencia rancho for $30,000 was de
feated. Three voted against it and five
for it. As it required a two-thirdß vote
to pass a money measure, tho proposi
tion failed by one vote. The taxpayers
aro to be congratulated on the miscar
riage of this scheme. It w;ts prema
ture, even if the purchase eiionld be
considered indispensable to tho pro
posed new water system. The old water
company's contract has several years to
run, aud that corporation has come to
the relief of the hill people, and they
are assured of as fine a service as the
roat of tha city enjoys. A vessel is on
the way here with pipe that will
enable the company to greatly increaae
and improve the service on the hills.
They have put up a pump of great
power to ratie the water from the lower
main reservoir to the high reservoirs on
the hille, and there is hardly any doubt
that if the vote on the water bonds were
to be submitted to the people today they
would be defeated. Judge Ross's late
decision in the Ventuia Water com
pany's case makes it almost positively
certain that if the city should attempt
now to lesßeu the value of the water
company's franchise by paralleling their
service, we would be plunged into a
costly and losing litigation with that
enrnneaMMl. Our adyicetothe.counc.il
to go slow in tins matter is soilnu.
Los AJMMWi musical people who
heard the beautiful voice of Miss Ellen
Beach Yaw laßt year aro not nt all Bur
prised to learn that New Yorkers are
tilled with astonishment at the phenom
inal range of that young lady's voice.
When Mies Yaw sang here she sev
eral timet took tho high F sharp, which
made our connoisseurs exclaim, "Won
derful! wonderful!" for they never
heard any human voice ascend to that
dizzy height before. In'fact, there is
no record of but two similar cases before
in the world's history. In 1770 Mozart
heard Lucrezia Ajugari sing from G
below the middle O to high C, or over
the extreme range of twenty-five notes.
And the New York Horald Bayß that tho
great Nilson used to paralyze her audi
ences by singing the high F sharp in
Mozart's Magic Flute. A throat special
ist who lately examined Miss Yaw's
larynx, said that her vocal chords were
liner than any lie had ever seen or beard
of; the inferior thyroarytenoid ligament
or true vocal chord having made 2048
vibrations per second. Miss Yaw, who
is about 22 years of age, was born
near BulValo, N. Y. H9r friends here
and in Pasadenu, where for a time she
was a music teacher in the Throop uni
versity, will be glad to know that her
i voice is gaining in strength and fullness.
AMUSEMENTS.
Unity Church.—An enjoyable enter
tainment was given last night at 8
o'clock by James O, Sullivan, the sol
dier poet, and other profficient artiste.
The programme consisted of recitations,
interspersed with musical renditions.
Mr. Bolllvan recited nix times end all
were very entertaining and of decided
merit. The manner In which he can
portray the pathetic side of life in con
nection with the humorous and heroic
ia something wonderful.
Prof. John McCnllongh recited the
dialogue between Brutus and Caesius,
from Julius C;o«ar, in a striking way.
The event of the evening were the
tonga by Misa Hannah Rees. Her voice
is a rich, clear soprano, and gives prom
ise of being capable of wonderful devel
opment in the not distant future. This
i« the firat. time in four years that. Misa
Reel has been heard in Loa Angeles, she
has been perfecting her musical talent
during that time in San Francisco.
The organ recital hy Mr. Wina C.
Stone was very fine, ao also were tbe
selections rendered by Mr. Herbert
Smith.
Taken altogether the evening was a
great success.

LETTER BAG.
Ministers and the Geary Act.
EnrroriH Hkrai.d: Seeing that BOine o(
our divines, whose sole manual occupa
tion consists in replenishing their com
missariat department and runuing after
their rapidly increasing real estate
transactions, have had their say on the
Geary law, I, as a man wbo is compelled
to earn a living for myself and family by
the sweat which is the natural accompa
niment of hard labor, beg to ask a place
in your columns as the self-constituted
representative of that class which forms
the bone and sinew of our great repub
lic.
Permit me to say that those gentle
men whom you have mentioned as be
ing antagouistic to the act are men
whose social position and occupation
place theiii infinitely beyond the reach
of the possible competition of the per
sistent Chinaman. They can ait al eaße
on their upholstered divans and from
their shaded retreats admire bis obse
quious servility when perlornimg duties
that could bo equally as well discharged
hy some of the impecuniou:' Christians
whose hard-earned dimes contribute to
their maintenance.
These men a c exempt from tho in
cursious of the heathens and can go to
sleep with the comforting assurance,
that the pulpit from which they har
raugue their hard working supporters,
will not on tbe ensuing Sabbath be in
vaded by a pig-tailed idolater. They
never have experienced tbe heartaches
of tho man who in the pursuit of bread
for himself and children, h&a gone frum
door to door, seeking employment, and
received the invariable answer, which
meant substantially that no American
need apply. Were such a contingency
even remotely possible, they would
raise a howl that would rend the eternal
ether. Destiny has never placed them
in that position, but those who have ex
perienced it, will cry a shsme to their
mistaken philanthropy, their psuedo
philosophy.
Their wail, regarding the restrictions
placed on the festive celestials, sounds
to the ears of an intelligent and inter
ested public like tbe imbecile drivelling*
of extreme old age,or incipient insanity.
Had they traveled through China, Rus
sia, or even the more civilized nations of
Franco or Germany, and beeu subjected
to the innumerable registrations, restric
tions nnd oven arrests to which foreign
ers are continualy liable, they would
drop their lamentations aud unite with
me in the verdict, that a Chinaman in
the United States has hitherto been the
freest mortal on earth. Free to come to
our country, free to monopolize onr in
dustries, free to practice his outlandish
vices and propagate his repulsive dis
eases, free to defy our laws aud deplete
our finances, and free to levant back to
tbe flowery kingdom with capital lhat
would contribute to the national wealth
and prosperity ii kept at home, and
leaving nothing behind him but the un
savory impresa of his beastly debvich
ery and loathsome physical ailments.
There seems to have been no actual
limit to his freedom, except it might be
tbe absence of wings, which is a fact to
be deploreo, since if possessed of these,
he might further pander to their pen>
chant for servile adulation by warbling
in at their upstairs bedroom windows,
or flapping his apteral appendages on
tbe lofty altitude of the chimney top.
One gentleman whinea that our gos
pel work will come to a full stop in
China, and that o.ir missionaries will
all be buatled back to ua. Let them
come; we have lots of good work for
them to perform right here among our
aelvee. There are thousands here who
are wandering in darkness, on the down
ward path ; men, women and children
who speak our own language and who
possess the various grades of intelli
gence developed by civilization, and
whose redemption from tbe error of
tbeir ways would entitle the evangelists
to a crown of glory irradiant in its im
mortality.
It seema to me that these men make a
shameful public display of innate pusil
lanimity when they endeavor to depict a
national calamity as a conaequence of
the anepenaion of commercial relations
between the two countries. This world
ia a rather spacious concern, and there
are millions of other fields open for
American euterpriee. All around us we
see stupendous mountains bursting l with
undeveloped mineral wealth, and in
numerable smiling valleys awaiting the
magical touch of capital and labor to
bloom forth in profusion, and in their
gushing luxuriance inaugurate an era of
prosperity unparalleled in the history of
nations. My advice ib, let our wander
ing brothera,come home and bring their
money along with them, we can take
ample care of both.
In conclusion permit me to remark
that it was a source of some satisfaction
to ua folks of the work-a-day world, that
at least one of the reverends threw aside
the veil of peurile hypocrisy and mock
philanthrophy/ind spoke out like a man
who was unbiased by prejudice aud de
sirous of giving the people of hiß own
race aud nationality a'fair and even
show. Yours truly,

to Sunday schools, and at the conclusion
of tbe papers a general discussion of the
subjects followed.
After the usual opening exercises yes
terday morning tbe 13ret subject treated

Fentou spoke on the equipment, Dr. J.
T, Price on the programme and Mr. C.
E. Day on the music. The general dis

lessou, B. W. Diehl and W. K. Klusman
•peaking on this topic.
In the afternoon session tbe lesson

CHICAGO, June 4.—Frank Wiggins
says the states that shut up their
buildings on Sunday last made a holy
.show of themselves.
A singular phase of the Sunday clos
ing question ia that the attorneys on one
side deem it perfectly right for the ex
position to open its gates on Sundays,
and tbe attorneys on tbe other side de
clare it is not. But it is a good thing to
get their unbiased opinions, even if they
do differ.
The Rev. De AVitt Talmage and
Brother Moody foujrht the devil in
their own inimitable way on Sunday
last. Neither condemned the opening
of the gates, and each, like the exposi
tion, took up his collections in advance.

Special to the Herald 1
San Bernardino, June 7.—Hall's race
track at Riverside was crowded today
with about 2000 people to witness the
100-yard daah between Tom C. Morris,
the peat land sprinter, and Kid Pulley,
a crack racer from Freeport, 111. Pulley
haa been training for some time on the
Riverside track, and defeated Morris at
Santa Ana about five weeka ogo. Morris
was not in condition, but at once chal
lenged Pulley to ran another race,which
was accepted.
Morris, accompanied by hia friends,
arrived in Riverside last evening, and
bet the orange city people to a stand
still.
When the sprinters appeared on tbe
track they were greeted by their re
spective friends. Both men were in the
pink of condition and looked ready to
run the raoe of their Uvea.
While scoring a hyatander made a
Blurring remark to Morria who imme
diately resented it by striking him a
Bevere blow in the face. He came to
the scratch and scored about four min
utes longer making ">.'!'.., minutes alto
gether.
When the start was made Morris se
cured a lead of about three feiet which
he increased till he breasted the tape
about six feet in advance of hie oppon
ent. He was loudly cheered by a large
circle of frienda who crowded around to
congratulate him.
Aa the start waa made by mutual con
sent it was impossible to give tbe cor
rect time. Several watches caught the
time as 9 and 2 5 seconds, while a few
were atopped at 0 o'clock flat.
Considerable mnnev changed hands on
the event and Riverside waa the loser,
A GREAT REGATTA.

. Austin, Tex., Juno 7.—The great re
gatta which commenced here today
brought together the world's greatest
oarsmen. In ita international charac
ter it. is probably tbe greatest aquatic
contest in tbe history of the world, and
the promises are good for fine racing for
the four days it lasts. All the morning
trains were crowded and thousands of
people gathered at the lake this after
noon to witness the opening races. When
the oarsmen in their shells came round
to the starting point for the first race a
mighty shout went up and interest
heightened.
The tirat two races were three-mile
trial heats for place in the big profes
sional race for Friday, when the prizes
are $1500 for tbe winner; |500, second ;,
$300, third.
