Corvel, tbe man who played it on the Anaheimers for considerable sums not long since was arrested at River side yesterday; Messrs. Rogers & Potosky will not open their "Grotto," in the basement of Ducommun's bidding until next Tuesday evening. A decree of divorce was granted by the District Court yesterday in the case of Clement vs. Clement. Two more souls made happy!

The Senator arrived at Wilmington late Thursday night, bringing ninety jiassengers and two hundred and fifty tons of freight. The passengers came up on yesterday morning's train. Messrs. W. H. Martin and O. L. Abbott, connected with the manage ment of the Centinela Colony, are in the city to attend the sale which comes off next Monday.

General Baldwin and Dr. Crawford have purchased the eligible site on Main street, opposite tlie Pico House, and contemplate building a flne block there in the Spring. A runaway horse with a long riata tied to his neck, made a brilliant dash through Joe Bresou's saloon yesterday and out of the hall in the rear. He took it straight. Dantelle and Moulton, the two san guinary darkles who played at razors the other day, will be brought up be fore Justice Gray this morning for preliminary examination. Our hook-and-ladder truck wax shippsl to Wilmington yesterday to be made use of hereafter in that place.

The Lob Angeles Guards will have a grand parade on Washington's Birthday in which they will be joined by the Thirty-eights. An invitation is extended to all civic societies to join in tbe procestion. In the evening a ball will be given in the armory- Steams' Hall. A lad who was driving a heavy track-roller at the race course Thurs day, fell from his seat and was run over. He sustained serious injuries in the back, but it is thought they will prove not fatal. Dr. Stanway was summoned and administered the nec essary medical treatment. A woman who lives on Fort street was arraigned before Justice Gray yesterday for disturbing the peace and quiet of her neighborhood. The trial was held with closed doors, as it de veloped some points not edifying to ears polite. The woman was found guilty of the charge and sentence will be passed at 10 o'clock this morning. This is the way they make up their "personal" column in tbe Idaho Avalanche: "We have publicly brand ed Kelly, editor and proprietor of tlie Statesman, as a liar and a thief, yea, and infinitely worse. We are pre pared to stand by our statements. Kelly inaugurated this personal war fare, and let him take the conse quences. He dare not come to Silyer City, and we shall be in Boise City at no distant day!" This has the right ring. It means business. We were yesterday shown a curios ity in the shape of an orange-lemon or lemon-orauge picked from the orch ard of Don Matio Keller. Doubtless when the fruit was green, some indi vidual experimentally inclined, had cut a wedge from the orange, taking away about one-third of it and sub stituting therefor a piece of lemon of equal size. The two pieces had united perfectly in skin and pulp so that the fruit matured. The line of Juncture was perfectly marked by the light and daj-k shades of the grafted fruits, and the flavor was a mixture of the two. We are In receipt of a catalogue of the Michigan State University with the compliments of Henry D. Bennett, Secretary and Steward. This Univer sity now stands in the front rank of American institutions of learning, and is the compeer of Harvard, Yale and Cornell. It is organized in three de partments: the department of litera ture, science and the arts; the depart ment of medicine and surgery; and the department of law; numbering in all 2,1111 students. No better institu tion can be found for the acquirement of a finished education. The Terpsichorian Social Club gave their fourth reception at Leek's Hall last night. The attendance, though not large, was ample, considering the accommodations of the hall. The members and guests of the club have the advantage of a good acquaintance with each other formed at preceeding hops, and there is no lack of sociabili ty or real enjoyment when they meet. The affair last night was very success ful and agreeable throughout. Mr. Arthur Kearney, who has been on a visit of some days to our city, leaves for home to-day. Since assum ing the ownership and editorial con trol of the San Bernardino Guardian, Mr. Kearney's ready and energetic pen has done much in the way of dissem inating correct information concerning Southern California. He is free from the sectional prejudices which mar, and, to a great extent, destroy the ef forts of a great many editors, and he recognizes and advocates that what ever is good for San Bernardino is good for all Los Angeles valley. In the daily and weekly Guardian we wel come an efficient co-worker in the task of placing the wealth and beauty of Southern California fairly and intolli gently before the World. We are plased to know that during his short visit here Mr. Kearney has secured a long list of advertisements from our lead ing hnmneHH Arms. Viviaa Last Night. The Vivian Combination changed their stage of action, or rather of act ing, from the Merced Theatre to Turn- Verein Hall last evening. A large audience was in attendance and the enteitainment equal to any that this painstaking and popular troupe has yet favored us with. The performance opened with the serio-comic two-act drama entitled "Milky White," iv which Miss Jennie Reiffarth played the character of pretty, affectionate "Annie White" to perfection—as nat ural as life. In personating this class of characters, Miss Reiffrath leaveß little to be desired. Mr. J. B. Robinson is au fait in his old man characters, and as "Old Milky" last evening he did himself credit. Siinnis made "Dick Ducks" about as laughable as any one could make it. The other characters were well sustained, and Vivian's olio was, as usual, the delight of all. The performance closed with "Marriageat Any Price," over which all laughed and went home well pleased. This afternoon "Cinderella Matinee," for ladies and children, will All Turn- Verein HalJ. The fascinating play of "Caste" will be rendered this evening by the full company. Meeting of the District Council, P. of H. The Los Angeles and San Bernar dino District Council met tn El Monte on Tuesday, February 9th. The Council was informally called to order by tlie Worthy Overseer, J. Q, A. Stanley, and by request Bro. J. S. Thompson, of Los Angeles, read a very interesting paper on mat subject of subjects, "Taxation," after which the Council opened in form, the W. O. presiding. The newly elected delegates pre sented their credentials, were enrolled and after some discussion the Council proceeded to regularly organize by electing officers for the ensuing year, the election resulting as follows: Mas ter, Edward Evey, Fairview; W. 0., J. Q. A. Stanley, Los Angeles; Lec turer, J. S. Thompson; Steward, P. Penfold, El Monte. The other officers were relected. The Committee on Centennial, through Bro. Porter, reported the work progressing more satisfactorily than the friends ef the movement antici pated. Sufficient funds have been raised, without the aid of Congress, to carry to completion the work under taken by the Commissionerß. Congress will probably be asked to appropriate $400,000, to be distributed in pre miums, but for no other purpose. Bro. Porter will, upon application, furnish proper blanks to any person or persons desiring to secure space in tlie Exposi tion buildings for theexhbition of auy of our products and industries. A lengthy and somewhat heated dis cussion followed the presentation of the report of the Committee on Immi gration, during which tbeLompoc and Centinela Land Companies came in for their full share of denunciation, aud although not censuring the Com mittee on Immigration, the spirit of the Council was most emphatically agaiast lending either the name or in fluence ofthe Patrons of Husbandry to any private speculation whatever. The debate closed with the adoption of the following resolutions: Resolved, That this Council does not countenance, but expressly disap proves the use of its name as that of the Patrons of Husbandry byoorpora tious or individuals for the promotion of their private interests. Resolved, That the above be fur nished the Los Angeles Herald, Southern Californian and Pacific Ru ral Press for publication. A resolution was also introduced by Bro. Porter and adopted looking to the establishment of a monthly paper by the Patrons of the Distriot. The following resolution was also presented and unanimously adopted: Resolved, That it being the legal duty of the State Board ot Education to select text books for the public schools, in our opinion it is not proper to condemn said Board or any mem ber thereof, in the absence of the slightest proof of dishonest influences for their selection of any school text books made by the Board at their last st *ssi O 11 Resolved, That books made by home authors and home publishers, If equally good and cheap, should be pre ferred for text books in our schools. Bro. Porter introduced the following, which was adopted: Whereas, The Worthy Lecturer of our State Grange has taken occasion to change an important statement In the Declaration of Purposes issued by the National Grange; therefore, be it respectfully — Resolved/That we as heartily endorse the erased statement as we do that substituted for it; that is, we are as heartily "opposed to the exorbitant per cent, profits of producers," as we are to "exorbitant profits in trade." The session of the Council at El Monte will be remembered by tbe members for the manner in which they were entertained by the good brothers and sisters of El Monte Grange No. 43. Tables were laid in the room under tlie hall for a hundred and fifty persons and were filled nnd refilled without any apparent diminu tion of the supyly of fish, fiesh and fowl and with delicacies in endless va riety. At the close of the session, in the evening, the announcement was made that supper awaited all who would partake, and the Council again pro ceeded to work in tbat mysterious de gree in which, when the elbow is crooked in salutation, the mouth in variably fles open. A vote of thanks was tendered the Lexington Lodge F. & A. M. for the use of their house on this occasion. The Council closed to meet in Los Angeles on the second Tuesday of May. Hon. J. S. Thompson, by request, addressed the Patrons in informal ses sion at 7J o'clock, and also, by request, furnishes a copy of his paper on taxa tion for publication. .1. K. M. San Bernardino Items. [From the Argus of Februury 11.] The lectures of Rev. Mr. Francis, the Baptist minister, have beeu well at tended and deciuedly interesting. We heard him at the Methodist Episcopal Church, Tuesday evening, aud were edified. Hon. ii. jd. underbill, ofthe South ern Pacific Railroad, is on a business visit to this city, we understand on laud business connected with the loca tion. He went to San Gorgonio yes tnnlait WliiU U„*„ 1- ~* I7i»ll T..J- . it .in. ii. ii laoir i <iii, uuvi^c Underbill made many friends in the valley. The genial, dashing, excruciating, gallant, honorable, gushing, courteous, exquisite, gentle, polite, graceful, gen teel, handsome, urbane, mannerly, generous, temperate and gentlemanly General Methuselah Nonentity arrived in town last week from Warm Creek, and returned to his home the same day. We wish him an unlimited lot of success if be is deserving of it. We learn that there has been some trouble between the contractors aud the men on the Spadra extension, and seme have left. The road is graded to within one mile of Cucamonga and it is probable that the camp was moved yesterday to tbe Cucamonga wash. Some misunderstanding about board seemed to be the cause of the disagree ment. The work will not be suspended, as any number of hands can be found, if tbe same amount of work is done each week as was done last, the road will be graded to this point iv four-or five weeks. A young man has beeu living in our midst for some time by the name of Lish. A short time ago he hired a wagon from Messrs. Tittle and Brod hurst and went to hauling sand and lumber for Mr. Davis, the Court House contractor. This becoming tedious, he concluded to raise the wind in a quicker way; so he sold out his team, wagon, etc., and went to San Francis co. Tittle & Brodhurst got wind of the affair and telegraphed to the Chief of Police of San Francisco for his ar rest; and when he stepped ofFthe boat he stepped into the arms of the worthy chief. The culprit is now on his way to this city for trial. Tt is said there' are others here who have little ac counts to settle with him. Wilmington Items. [From the Enterprise] Why don't some one start a lumber yard in Wilmington? If lumber were cheaper, a number of houses would be erected. It is a little too much to pay freight on lumber to Los Angeles and back again. There seems to be no diminution in the large number of tourists and im migrants that arrive at our port by every steamer. Los Angeles and her "back country" are, no doubt, most attractive localities to strangers com ing to California. Work on the wbarf is going abead at a lively rate. The piles are nearly all driven; a greater portion of the Mooring laid; the tank has been ar ranged, and the passenger depot is being built on the edge of the wharf, immediately where the boat hinds, so that passengers have nothing to do but pass through and get into the cars at the opposite door. The officers are also being moved to the North side of the wharf, immediately opposite the pas senger depot. On the western end of the wharr tbe flooring is elevated some four feet and a double railroad track will pass througb, making it easy to load and unload the cars. In a word, everything is being arranged with an eye to durability and convenience. COURT REPORTS. District Court—Hkpulveua, J. Friday, February 12.
