Thanksgiving <ls.y passed off pleasant ly and uneventfully, tbe principal in terest centering at Athletic park, where a large crowd enjoyed an exciting athletic programme. Congress, in addition to the Presi dent's message and the reports of the departments, Willi probably grow famil iar with that much-reiterated word, "Hawaii," before the session has grown very old. It appears, tbat the aum allowed by millionaire TJackey to his stapson-in law, the Pr ince Colonna, wae $1000 a month, instead of $175,000 a year. It is pretty safe to say, in view of develop ments, that the precious scamp would . have been clear at nothing. Portions of the old North Beach Bath House hays been demolished prepara tory to the erection of the moßt com plete bat'aing establishment on the Pacific C)a.st, and probably on the American continent. It cannot fail to prove a great attraction to the City by the Sea. The completion of tbe elec tric railws.y from Mt. Lowe to Santa Monica rv-i'll also be a great card for thia charming resort, and this is promised •a an incident of the early summer. We am: approaching a day when our esteemed contemporary, the Express, will schiuve another triumph of journal ism. The president's message will be delivered in Washington at! 2 m., which will be !) o'clock a m. by Los Angelea time, and our c. c. aforesaid will quite naturally indulge in gratulatione at Its superior energy in being able to print the document tbe same day. As a morning paper is not printed the day before its date of issue it could not very well give the president's message before Tuesday. Hobtiuultubal Commissioner John Scott is about to be investigated by the board of supervisors. His bills for chemicals for the extirpation of bugs are said to have reached paralyzing pro portions. Hiß enmity to parasites is ■aid to have something to do with these lwga outlays for thoie expensive chem icals. The 13th of the present month has been set as the date for the com mencement of the hearing. The late State Horticultural convention, which •at in Lob Angeles, expressed a decided preference for parasites, and antagonized Mr. Scott's pet theories and costly prac tises very emphatically. Much Buch a sensation as was pro duced at Hampton Roads during our war by the advent of the Merrimac and Monitor iB looked for in the harbor of Bio de Janeiro when the veesels which President Peixoto has recently pur chased in the United States shall arrive in that beautiful bay. Unless much has been written to very little purpose about the Destroyer that formidable vessel ought to make come sensational history. She carries a gun which will throw a shell containing fifteen hundred pounds of dynamite a distance of several mile?. If this tremendous missile can be ex ploded arvongst Do Mello's fleet some thing extraordinary in the way of de struction ought to be reported. Whether the Deetroyor can ha handled easily, and whether it can bu leadlly disabled or destroyed, remainsi to be seen. A3 to £1 Oi and El Rio it is very much a I question aa to whether they could have been conversed into effective war-ship? lin such a brief period. Bnt they are all j pointed aonth and they were probably ; intended to be useful rather than orna ment*], and we ebonld therefore expect to hear something from them very ahortly. MAJOR TRUMAN'S LATEST WORK. Some time ago the Herald noticed Major Ben C. Truman's biatory of tbe world's fair and felicitated ita readera on bia having been there to do tbe work. He not only accomplished the task to perfection, but it was a highly fortunate thing for Los Angeles that be happened to be on the scene, aa be ia devoted to the Angel City. He paaaed many yeara of hit California life here, and will be recalled by old-timers ac the editor of tho 1 Star, a paper which went out of exist ence shortly after ita eale by him. Dur ing tike progress of the great Columbian exposition the columns of the Herald were, graced by many timely articles fromitbe major's facile and always in teresting pen. Prior to the opening of the great exposition be superin tended a special exhibit of Loa Annies and Southern California proilucta in the Hialto building in Chicago, and it ia not too much to cay tbat many peraons who are now valued citizens of Loa Angelea city and county were directed hither by his intelligent and well informed dissertations upon tbe attractions of a residence in this sec tion of tbe country. Hia history of tbe fair onght to be extensively read in Cali fornia on its intrinsic merits, and we go out of onr way to make this notice editorial and personal because our late townaman is a distinguished member of our own guild. Hia publication haa received a multi plicity of commendatory and appre ciative notices. Amongst the mass the following, from the Chicago Tribune, seeme te us to be specially worthy of reproduction in our columns: The "History of the World's Fair, being a complete description of tbe World's Columbian Exposition from its inception, by Major Ben C. Truman of the department of floriculture, with special articles by T. W. Palmer, George H. Davia, D. H. Bnrnhem, M. P. Han dy, Jobn Thorpe, T. B. Bryan and many others," ia tbe lateat contribntion to world's fair literature. Major Truman ia a newspaper man, an extensive trav eler, with quick perception, an enter taining talker, and replete with delight ful reminiscences. He haa written en tertainingly of what be has seen and huard in tbe leading newspapers of tbe United States. He waa contemporane ous with tbe generala and politiciana of thD war of the rebellion. He waß one of President Andrew Johnson's private secretaries, and was sent by the unfor tunate executive to the aouth on aeveral valluable missions. He knew more public men st one time than any pri vate citizen in the country. He went to Jackson park when tbe fair work was in its embryotic staze and waß made assistant chief of tbe Floricultural de partment, ln his leisure hours he began to accumulate data for the history of lihe fair. He wrote it aa tbe fair pro gressed. His work ia finished and haa jus i been isened by tbe Mini moth Pub lishing company of thia city, No. 330 --334 Dearborn street. Typographically the hook ia artistically attractive. The binding ia illustrated with several views of Jlackaon park aa the park appeared whtin the epirit of the fair hovered above it. Turning from this feature to tbe book itself one ia entertained at its contents by reason of tbe style in which they are written, by new lights which havo been thrown on old subjects, by profuße illustrations, some of which are not lound in other histories and books ol the fair, and by the admirable arrange ment of the subjects. The book is di vided into 11 parts. The introductory is from the pen of President Palmer, and; then follows the story of bow tbe fair was first mentioned by Dr. Ziretn baa. There is a fancy sketch of how a Chi cagoan arranged his parlor to ac con imodate his friends who were to visit him at the fair. In front of an arti clo by T. B. Bryan on "Tbe Lasting Benefits of the Fair," is a full page pic ture of "School Children Passing Union Square in New York." Under "The Pillars of the Imposi tion,," Major Truman treats of the fifty five big men of Chicago who got the fair and who made it tbe glory it was. Pic turtis of the directors, officers, and of tbe World's Columbian commission accompany this chapter. Then follows the atory of the great enterprise, each Btep being marked and every depart ment reviewed fully. A picture of the burning of tbe cold storage warehouse recalls the only horror, and then, in par l 11, tbe reader is ttansported to the Ferris wheel, from the height of which he looks down once more on that pano ranria which moved on and on, day and night, along the Midway. It makes one think of nights in Old Vienna end in Cairo, and among the Bedouins. Then brief, entertainingchaptersfollow, giving also the data about admissions, red letter days, costs and expenditures, aye rage attendance, comparisons, Chi cago's own day, and then the last day and the last inspiration of Carter Har rison, his speecii to the mayors, his parting with tbe White City—strangely enough they read now —and tbe curtain fall,). A i actress from California, whose name is Mias Crystal Thornton, has just submitted to a successful operation in >iew York by which the dimensions cf her nose have been brought into sym metrxal relation with her otherwise handiome facial charms. It seems that her noße was of the Roman order, hump-backed and hawk-tipped, and that its prominence gave what she con uidtred a blemish to her pretty face. And as her face, like the pretty milk maid's, was her fortune, and cut an im portant figure iii her business, she determined that her nasal organ should be brought into harmony with her other chains, even at the risk of a painful and dangerous surgical operation. Her mrve stood her in good stead, and she iB now in the way of facing an audience without beinc subjected to cutting criti cinm about her conspicuous nasal organ. We can well understand how ehe must have winced when Bhe came on the et.ige and heard such side remarks as "Phceboj, what a nose!" "Crimini; there's a cutwater for you!" '•Great Cieiar, what a blow-pipe!" Flteh and blood could not stand this kind of rallying, so she summed up courage to cut the Gordian knot of her trouble, and submit hertelf to the LOS ANGLES HERALD* FRIDAY MORNING, DECEMBER I. 1893 elision of the soarce of all her woes b; the scalpel of the artist surgeon. He courage and determination have eon quered unkind nature, and we glory it h«r spunk. But we tremble at what will be tbe result of her success. Othei women, allured by her example, wil invoke tbe aid of the surgeon's art tc increase their charms. The lady with tbe pug nose will insist on having il bnilt into a thing of beauty, and ladies witb prominent ears will consult tbe doctors about reducing them to present able proportions. Miss Crystal may have much to answer for. She may find herself the pioneer of a mania which will result in many disappoint ments, for though the surgeon may have it in his power to reduce a too con spicuous nose to symmetrical Btibjec •tion, there are female defects he will be unequal to remove. Tor instance, he cannot give additional cheek to the mod est and retiring young woman, nor take t down in the forward and brazen, with out risking in the one case a permanent disfigurement and in the other his scalpel. A careful inspection of the pre3B of the United States shows an overwhelm ing preponderance against the imposi tion of an income tax. This sentiment crops out as freely in Democratic as in Republican circles. W, BonrkeCockran, tbe great Tammany chief of New York, ie outspoken against it. The llKitAi.n was early in deprecating such a tax, and we find that the reasons advanced against it are exactly those propounded in this journal, ft is inquisitorial, un equal, nn-democratic, un-republican and a premium on perjury. Only a great war could justify it, and even in the heat and throes of the war for tho union the United States fonnd it convenient to re peal its income tax. There iB little chance oi its passing congress a second time, and its introduction only tendß to obscure the great tariff issue. By drop ping it at once much valuable time will be saved for the material features of tariff reform. These remarks have no bearing on the proposed tax on inherit ances beyond a certain sum, upon ab sentee landlords or upon the foreign owners of immense land holdings which, in some states, such as Texas, for in stance, amount to millions of acres, held purely for purposes of speculation. These features of the proposed law should have been enacted long ngo. They par take of none of the inquisitorial or op pressive features of an income tax, and are calculated to prevent the growth of great evils. The breaking of a ten cent bolt in the cruiser Olympia cost the Union Iron Works just ten thousand dollars— $S4OO in the special quality of coal used and the remainder in the extra outlays the company was put to in paying the salaries and expenses of the ottieiaU of the United States who were to have Buperintended'the trial, and who will be obliged to go through their labors again after the vessel has re-coaled. By tbe way, it would be quite inconvenient to have one of these ten cent bolts break in actual hostilities, and there | seems to be very little guarantee agaiust i the occurrence of each r> malapropos 1 incident. Yesterday the tire department passed under the control of tbe new chief, Moriarty. The transfer was effected at noon, although it had been planned to take place at midnight. The new ad ministration waß put to the test imme diately, for the change had scarcely been effected when an alarm of fire was soOjpded from the Kan-Koo store, snow ing that the position is no sinecure. On both sides of the continent foot ball seemed to be the principal diver tissement yesterday. Princeton got away with the ueually victorious Vales, Harvard beat Pennsylvania, and in our own state the Berkeleyans played the Stanfords to a draw. In the llrst and last games the "talent" waa badly left and had to pungle heavily as a result of its misplaced confidence. AMUSEMENTS.

The explanatory matter was supplied by Mrs. Ksther Harland, who added interest to the views by hor interesting j explanations. Mrs. Harland, who wag i the secretary of the California board of lady managers of tha world'a fair, is of i course particularly well fitted for her I tatk.

A Joke Which Becolled Upon the Maker- A Shrewd Birtender Torna the Tables Upon a Practical Joker. As is usual on Thanksgiving day, a considerable quantity of egg-nog was consumed yesterday by thankful citi zens, and a number of amusing inci dents could be witnessed upon the streets and elsewhere in consequence. But there was nothing caused a heartier laugh than an occurrence which took place in a Spring-street saloon. The talented mixer of drinks who pre- Bides at tbat particular bouse of call is a bit of a was in bis way, and a man whom it is difficult to "rattle" on any I sort of a proposition, as the following story will prove: An army officer, a genial six-footer, had made the Spring-street resort his headquarters during the day and by the timo afternoon was reached bad suc ceeded in reaching a thoroughly mellow and satisfied condition, and it was when he reached this stage that he conceived I tho idea oi scoring one oil' bis friend, the dispenser of drinks. Calling a couple of friends up to the bar, the army man called for the drinks, which in the twinkling of an eye made their appearance and were consigned to a place of safety. Witb a careless air the jocund six footer stuck two fingers in his waistcoat pockot nnd pulled out a bundle of $100 bills, tbe number of which caused the hair of those present to stand on end with envy. Selecting one, the owner gravely passed it over to tho barkeeper, aud, turning to his friends, winked the other eye. Tbe white-aproned one scanned the figures on the bill, and, shaking his head, regretted that he was unable to make change. This of course was exactly what the man with the roll expected, and in high glee he declared that the dunks wore on the house. The barkeeper, who still held the bill, protested, however, but in vain. The army man would listen to nothing; un less the bill wsb changed there wonld be no drinks paid for. The man behind the bar thought a minute, while the crowd were enjoying tbe joke, and then made a last request for h smaller amount of money. His appeal was ineffectual "Drinks on you—or change the bill," laughed the owner of the hundred. The barkeeper sizing up his man as one who enjoyeth a joke, then remarked: "All right, old man, I'll fix you," and taking the bill by each corner tore it iv half, while the crowd looked on, aghast at the sacrilege. The owner of the money suddenly be came serious, and began to vigorously protest. Then the other banded him one half tbe bill with the laconic remark, "Come around later and pay for the drinks and I'll give you the otherhalf." Expostulation was of no use, and the good natured officer yielded to the inev itable and acknowledged the laugh was on him. Later on he re appeared, this time with change, and receiving the other half of the $100 bill pasted the two 1 ! aof paper together, after which he Bet up the drinks for the house. WILSON'S TARIFF RILL. The Income Tax to Re Limited to Cor poration! and Successions. Washington, Nov. 30.—1t has been definitely determined that the income tax system to be reported to the ways and means committee will be confined, to a tax on the net incomes of all cor porations and on successions and lega cies. Bryan, McMillin, Whiting and others made a Btrong fight for a plan broad enough to include- all incomes of individuals in excess of $5000, but have been forced to aquiesce in the will of the mejority and abandon the graduated income tax in favor of one applying only to corporations and successioua. It can bo confidently announced that the tax system will be narrowed down to these specific limits uuleis the reccmmenda tiona of the committee are upset iv the house. The tax on successions and legacies will apply only to personality and moneys. The Democrats of the committee have also decided to increase the rates radi cally on cigarettes and impose a tax on playing cards. Both these points have been definitely decided. The internal revenue tax on whisky is still an open question. The committee is maintain ing a studious reticence on this subject for fenr of manipulation by apeculatora on the stock exchangee. BX HIKING MINERS, 1 A Serious Situation In tho Western PMBayivanlu Coal DMtrtct. PrrrißDßO, Nov. 30. —The situation at the wines of the Pittßburg and Chicago Coal Gas company at Snowden and iiae tonviile ia critical.

An appeal to tbe Hher iffa of Allegheny and Washington coun ties from the operators roanlted in tho dispatching of 14 deputies to the scene. At a late hour tonight it ia reported a large number of strikers assembled at Finleyville and are on the way to the troubled district.

Where Goods Are Sold Kxactly aa They Are Represented—Destined to Be come One of the Attractive Fes tares of Lni Angelce Olty. The great Jewelry and art establishment of M. German on South Spring street, between Third and Fourth, Is rapidly assuming shape, and hundreds of people stop daily to admire the beautiful goods which are displayed in the show windows. Those, however, give but a faint conception of the wealth aud vari ety of artistic and valuable articles which are exposed (or rale within. lhls establishment will be a Godsend to that numerous olaaf of citizens who desire to select some artistic piece of jewelry or work of art, either for themselves or aa a present, and who, while having little knowledge on the subject themselves, desire to be sure that what they buy is exactly as represented, and that they a.c not being charged an exorbitant price be cause of their lack of technical knowledge. It is generally understood that in the average jewelry store prices arc more or less elastic, de pending to a great extent on the knowledge or acumen of tne buyer. This la not the case at German's, where a child may bay as advan tageously as a man who "knows the ropes." A tlxed and moderate proilt Is charged on each artlc'.e. Mr. German is here to stay. He intends tn Identify him,elf with Los Angeles. It is easy to sec tbat his establishment will, within a short time, become one of the features of the city. Indian God OF ADVICE.
