The deck upon which Karl Wilhelm
wrote down the notes of Die Waeht am
Rhein was lately auctioned off at Crefeld
and brought 370 marks, which, in ac
cordance with a clause in the composer's
will, were turned over to the poor of the
town.
Miss Nellie McHenry was accorded a
rousing welcome at the Grand Cpera
House in New Orleans last Monday,
where a large audience saw her in the
Humming Bird. Miss McHenry seems
to be as great a favorite in the extreme
South as she was in the Northeast and
West.
Mary Anderson refused to appear for
the benefit of the Actor's Fund benefit,
which took place on Thursday in New
York. This, with the fact that she
brought her entire company from Eng
land, has caused a great deal of talk, as
"Our Mary" has said a great deal about
her patriotism to the reporters who in
terviewed her on her arrival.
A powerful drama, called La Peur, by
M. Paul de Caesagnac, has been read
and accepted for early production in
Paris—the censure permitting. The play
is said to be "supremely political and ex
ceedingly strong." Should the French
Government prohibit the piece, it will be
taken to Brussels, and played there by
the company shortly to begin rehearsing
in Paris.
Minnie Palmer is playing at Newcastle,
England, where John R. Rogers is raking
in gold galore. During the engagement
they are the guests of bir Henry Claver

Tyne, whose chateau is the pride of
Northumberland County. They are
daily driven to and from the theater
with regal honors —four-in-hand —ser-
vants, outriders, heralds, torchbearers,
Ac, &0. The country is being painted
scarlet. My Sweetheart and My Brother's
Sister are on duty. Primroses will not
be done this trip, but must wait until
after American engagements.
Tbe Fbllbarmonlc Society.
The Philharmonic Society is making
great preparations for its concert on the
17th of next month. Its chorus and
orchestra are rehearsing the programme
twice every week together and once a
week separately, and the result will be
another musical eucccss. This society
jumped into popularity at the start and
it intends to make itself the leading as
sooiation of the kind in the West. The
concert will occur on Beethoven's birth
day, and in honor of the occasion this
great composer's fifth symphony will be
given, together with Mendelssohn's
"Hymn of Praise." The first concert
was given at Turner Hall,but this proved
too small for such a large organization
and the Grand Opera House has been
Secured for the coming concert. From
appearances it has been judged that
there will be a rush for seats when the
box office opens.
Sully at tbe Cirand.
Daniel Sully will occupy the Grand
Opera House this week. He was here a
year ago and drew crowded houses. On
Monday and Wednesday and Thursday
evenings and Saturday matinee the play
will be Daddy Nolan, on Tuesday even
ing and Thursday matinee The Corner
Grocery, on Friday evening Tlie Capital
Prize, and on Saturday evening Daddy's
Trust and Sullivan's Vacation.
Nat tioodwln'a Marriage.
There is a good deal of curiosity about
town to see Nat Goodwin's wife. The
former Mrs. Goodwin has been dead
about a year, and while everybody knows
of the comedian's infatuation, for he has
taken the world into his confidence, it
was not believed that he would marry
for several months hence. The suit of
Miss Leila Fairell has been compromised
apparently without any difficulty. It is
questionable whether she ever had a
case that could be fairly called one.
The lady whom Mr. Goodwin married is
exceedingly pretty, and, though 6he hails
from Buffalo, she has spent a great deal
of her time in Boston, and in the sum
mers at Nantasket Beach. The element
of the marriage which causes the most
amusement describes Mr. Goodwin's al
most frantic admiration of his wife. Or
dinarily, he is rather callous in matters
of the sort, but his infatuation in this
case is complete and overmastering. As
a man remarked up town recently :
"Nat Goodwin has done many more
questionable things than his latest ex
ploit of falling in love with bis own wife.
This ought to absolve him from criticism
for 11 least a year to come."—'New York

COUNCIL WORK.
Matters That Are to Come Ip tor
Discussion.
Considerable important work is to
come up before the Council to-day.
Among other things bids are to be re
ceived for lighting the city. Consider
complaint has been made during the
past two years over the way in which
the city has been lighted and it has
been claimed in the City Council that
the city was not getting the light for
which it paid. Another complaint has
been made against the terms of the con
tract under which the city was lighted,
which provided that the lights were to
be lit when the moon was not shining,
according to the almanac. It frequently
happened that the almanac made
the moon shine when there was no sign
of her face in this city, and the conse
quence was that the streets were very
daik and dangeious. Footpads have
taken advantage of this Etate of affairs,
even at early hours of the evening. A
nnmber of c'.tizens have asked that tho
lights be kept up whenever it is dark,
and not when tbe almanac says the moon
don't shine. It was hinted last week
that a proposition to light with gas
might be made, and possibly accepted,
and there were some who favored gas
more than electricity. The matter will
be discussed at length to-day, probably.
Another matter to come up is the fran
chise to the Southern Pacific Railroad, to
which amendments were offeicd at the
last meeting of the Council. It is proba
ble that a vote on the matter
will be taken this afternoon
on the question as to whether
it will be granted or not
The proposition of the Pacific .Sewage
Company to provide the city with the'
West system of filtration will probably
come up for discussion. It was laid over
for a week at the last meeting to give the
City Surveyor time to prepare his state
menPand maps regarding the same. In
connection with the growers it is possible
that the Sewer Committee may have a
report upon the proposition of Mr. J. C.
Daly to sewer the city. The Committee
has been at work upon the proposition
during the week and Air. Daly states
that if the city wants its sewer system
built he will build it.
The Finance Committee will state that
the Btreets are not being swept according
to contract and they will advise against
the payment of the bills for the same.
Another important matter to come up
is the right-of-way of the Los Angeles,
Utah and Atlantic Railroad Company.
The Board of Public Works recommend
ed that the light-of-way be granted and
that the deeds to certain city lands
which the company desires bo placed iv
escrow, to be delivered to the company
at such time as they shall have the first
train in operation over the line, the work
to be commenced within one year and
finished in three. The Council is to fix
the consideration, but tbe company pro
poses to build a levee from Hoff street to
the southern boundary of the city on
the east side of the river in consideration
that three pieces of city land be given
them. The matter will* be discussed
to-day.
A number of petitions have been tiled
already for action, among others one
from Richard Garvey, asking permission
to excavate under the sidewalk at the
corner of Ninth and Main streets, as he
intends to erect a brick business block at
that place. He also complains that the
curve of the Ninth and Spring street rail
road track is not according to the lines
given by the City Surveyor.
The property owners on York street
ask that it be graded from Main to Fig
ueroa.
Property owners at Boyle Heights a9k
that cross-walks be placed over First
street at the intersections of Boyle
avenue, Bailey, State, Cummings and
Chicago streets. The people on Second
street also ask for cross-walks at the
intersection of Hill and Olive streets.
The Fourth street property owners ask
that the grade of that street be estab
lished between Hope and Flower.

SORE THROAT.
Inflsmmatcry action of any kind In the nose
speedily extends it-elf to the throat. From
he throat each breath we draw carries the
Irritation onward and (fuiniwant through the
bronchial tubes; as these are involved the sup
ply of air to the lungs becomes gradually di
minished, tut cronies may form and bronchitis
end in consumption. "Sore thtoat" is the
popular term used in speaking of throat dls
easts, differing widely from each ether in
their nature and treatment,
The throat comprises the whole space from
the posterior uarcs down (o the entrance into
the windpipe and gullet. The several parts
liable to disease are tbe mucous membrane
lining the throat, the mucous fo.llcles or little
f lands, which iv health, secrete the lubricat
ng mucous, the uvula or pedulus part which
hangs down from the curtain of the palate and
the tonsils.
ACUTE OR SIMPLE KORE THROAT.
The ino-t simple form of throat disease is
inflamraa.ion of the mncous membrane, re
sulting from recent cold. It Is most prevalent
in cold or damp wcathor. The symptoms aro
a roughness In the thtoat, with a Slight pain
and swelling. The throat looks red and angry
and the tongue is slightly coated with white
fur. Within a few days small whitish spots,
which look like ulcers, form on the back of the
throat and about the root of the tongue. If the
attack be mild, these aphthous points disap
pear at the end of three or four days, but when
more severe they leave behind them superficial
ulcers. When the acute Inflammation is not
entirely removed it is likely to degeneate into
a chronic form, aud gradually develop what is
called granular disease, or It may end in an
abscess of the toußil glands, or cause chronic
enlargement of the tonsils and elongation of
the uvula.
CHRONIC SORE THROAT.
This like nearly all affections of the throat
and nose, usually begins with a severe cold,
t nd is almost always attended with a hoarse
ness, it is note frequently a mere extension
of catarrh or sore throat than an original dis
ease, the irritation escaping down and fixing
itself upon the delicate organism M this part,
and thence gradually journeying onward to
the lungs. When it occurs as a consequence of
catarrh or sore throat, the symptoms are com
paratively mild. There may be pain but It Is
more common to find only a sense of tickling
which provokes cough. Many complain of a
sensation as of "something sticking there," to
get rid of which they keep up a rasping effort
to clear the windpipe. The voice is always
more or less affected, being rough in the early
state, but more feeble after the disease is fully
established. There is often a slight tenderness
over that prominence of the neck known as the
"Apple of Adam" (Pomnm Adam), a heat and
a sense of tightness and frequently some slight
difficulty in ewal lowing.
The causes which produce this form of dis
ease are various. It arises iv clergymen and
public speakers and others from too violent
use of the voice. The vocal cords become ex
hausted and lose their tone from straining and
overuse. Dust and all irritating matters in the
air are liable to be drawn into tho windpipe
and produce irritation. It is more often a
mere sequel to sore throat, the inflammation
extending down to the larnyx by reason of the
continuity of mucous membrane.
But from whatever cause it arises it is
always a serious malady. The chronic form
threatens the complete destruction of the
voice, and rarely ends until it has involved
the lungs in disease. Every slight cold, every
change in the weather, every flight of dust,
feeds the irritation and increases the inveter
acy of its hold.
On the other hand chronic laryngitis fre
quently occurs as a sequel of consumption,
and is produced, or at least very much aggra
vated, by the in; tati on of the expectorated
matter. Occurring as a consequence of tuber
cles, it Is one of the most distressing complica
tions and adds greatly to the patient's distress.
In this form there Is more or less ulceration of
the vocal chords, beginning on the lower side
and gradually extending upward. These ulcers
often penetrate through the mucous and cellu
lar membranes, involving the muscular tissue
and not infrequently attack the ligaments and
cartilages themselves.
When the laryngeal disease is secondary to
that of the lungs, and dependent upon it we
can only hope to effect a cure by those means
which will remove its cause, and these we
have considered, and shall more fully consider,
under the head of "Consumption."
In addition to inflammation, acute or
chronic, the larynx Is liable to abscesses, to
warty growths a"d to polipi. Under the
action of long continued Irritation the vocal
cords become thickened, rendering the voice
husky and indistinct. And again, we may
have complete loss of voice from rolsy of the
cords, constituting an affection known to the
physicians by the teim of "Aphonia." Unless
the remedies are applied to the seat of the
disease it is useless to try to effect a cure. It is
for this reason that judicious inhalations are
successful when all other means have been
tried without avail.
TONSILITIS
Is an acute inflammation 01 the tonsils,
which consists of a collection or mass of small
mucous follicles or glands whose office 1b to
secrete a portion of the fluid which keeps the
threat moist. There are persons who suffer
every winter, sometimes oftener, with an
attack of acute inflammation of these glands.
The trouble begins with a slight soreness and
swelling, which gradually increases until the
act of swallowing is attended with great suffer
ing.
These glands are sometimes affected by a
chronic inflammation, and are found enlarged
and very much hardened. In such cases they
secrete a thin, unhealthy, irritating fluid,
which is spread over the throat, perpetuating
the disease. In the throats of mauy young
persons these glands are permanently so large
as to render respiration exceedingly difficult.
The defective breathing of children thus
affected often occasions contraction of the
chest, and lays the foundation for consump
tion. The euktachian tubes (the months of
which are just above the palate) ai c often in
llnmed, and partial deafness 1b the result.
Many patients suffering from a throat dis
ease are dyspeptic, and suffer from depression
of spirits. So often does this symptom present
itself that it may almost be regarded as one of
the peculiar ties. Persons thus afflicted have
usually the dark and dingy look of the face
which denotes functional derangement of the
liver. They are frequently emaciated, nerv
ous, hypochondriacal, Irritable and often ex
hausted from other causes, In combination
with this disease.
ORANULAB SOBE'THBOAT
Is the most serious form or inroat disease. It Is
so called because on looking Into the throat
granulations of various sizes are seen, studding
the membrane and causing it to appear rough
and uneven. Sometimes these granulations
appear in pate acs, bnt generally they are regu
lar and distinct. When allowed to progress the
mucous follicles ol the larynx soon become in
volved, and then we have added to the other
symptoms a huskiness of the voice in speaking
or reading aloud, with a frequent effort to clear
the windpipe, by which a thick, sticky, bluish
colored mucous is forced off with considerable
difficulty. The transition from a simple to a
Ksnular sore throat is very easy. The patient
comes conscious of vexatious tit Illation, pro
ducing a desire to clear the throat several times
during the courseof the day. He may not no
tice this himself, but it Is, nevertheless, ob
served by his friends. Some months later this
disposition Is found to have increased, and to
be attended with an occasional desire to swal
low, the patient—to use his own words—feeling
something sticking In his throat.
