Emma Juch's visiting list is said to in clude the lady members of many of the oldest of the Knickerbocker families of New York, and on her recent visit to Washington she was given a tea at the White House by Mrs. Harrison, who occupied a box every evening that she sang in the capital city, and on every occasion would send beautiful floral trib utes to be handed over the footlights to her favorite singer. This extensive but select list of acquaintances is of great benefit to the fair young singer, but not infrequently proves a source of consider able annoyance, as on the days when she sings she has made it an invariable rule to rise early, breakfast and take a long walk or drive in some park or in the country with no companion but ber mother. When she is billed to sing in the evening, she will not converse with any one during tho day, not infrequently carrying this to such an extent as refus-. ing a reply to an ordinary question, as she believes that Bhe is thus able to keep her voice in condition to perform her best work. * » William Piatti, a well-known pianist of this city, gave a recital yesterday afternoon at tbe Bartlett Music ball, on First street. A number of his friends and admirers were present. The pro gramme contained much interesting music, which was rendered in the thor ough and appreciative style which char acterizes Mr. Piutti's playing. It was as follows: Organ Toccata and Fugue in D minor (arranged for piano by Tausig), Bach; "Sonate Pathetique," Beethoven; "Marche fl la Turque," Beethoven; Serenata, Opus 15 No. 1, Moezkowski; Moment Musical in F minor, Schubert; Gavotte in £ minor, Silas; Prelude, Opus 9 No. 4, Kirchner; Romanza in F sharp major, Schumann; aria from first Piano Sonata, Schumann ; "Happiness Enough" (from "Scenes of Childhood"), Schumann; Nocturne in F sharp major, Chopin; ballad in G minor, Chopin; polonaise in A flat major, Chopin; valse in A fiat major, Chopin; etude on the black keys, Chopin; "Gondoliera," Liszt; RhapsodicHongroiseNo. 6, Liszt. A most enjoyable musicale was held at the residence of Colonel J. J. Avers on New Year's Eve. Signor Farini, Mrs. Kenney-Cohen, Mr. William Wadding ham and Mr. R. Paulsen contributed greatly to the pleasure of the evening with their very superior vocalization. Signor Farini executed a number of diffi cult fantasies on the piano, and sang a spirited bravura in his best vein and liveliest spirit. Mrs. Dr. Hans Owens also favored the company with several selections, which she sang wi'h her usual sweetness of voice and tenderness of expression. Mrs. Cohen's rich con tralto was at its best, and her efforts, as those of Mr. Waddingham and Mr. Paul sen, were highly praised. The party consisted <A Signor Farini and his pupils, (Mrs. Cohen and Messrs. Waddingham and Paulsen), Mr. and Mrs. Dr. J. S.

After the completion of the tableaux, pongs and dancing were enjoyed by the young people present until a late hour, when the company separated amidst mutual and general wishes of happiness and prosperity for the new year. The generosity and kindness of tbe hosts was much appreciated by the guests, who will remember with feelings of pleasure this first party of the year 1890. A THOROUGHFARE WANTED. The West Endera and Crown Hill* People meet. A joint meeting of the West End Board of Trade and the Crown Hills Board of Trade was held on Friday even ing, for the purpose of discussing the establishment of a thoroughfare to the center of the city. Upon request City Engineer Eaton gave his opinion about the thoroughfare. He said that a plan which involved the cutting down of Second street to a traffic grade was im practicable because of the expense, which he estimated at nearly $000,000, "hot including the damage to property. To tunnel the hill on Second street he thought would ,cost less than $200,000, exclusive of damage to property, and was the most practicable thing to under take. The tunnel he proposes would enter the hill this side of Olive streets and come out on tbe west side about Hope street. It would be thirty feet wide and twenty-two feet high, and the entrances would be so arranged as not to interfere with the street or track, or seriously obstruct traffic to and from the hilltop. The expense should be met by assessments on property along the pro posed thoroughfare and near it.. The assessments would range from fifty cents to several dollars a front foot, according to location. The following resolutions were adopted: First. That the Council be requested to re-establish the grade of First street f'om the west city line to Lucas avenue, and of Lake Shore avenue and Second street to east side of Hope street, and Second street from Hill street to Fort streat, so that no grade on said street shall exceed a rise of four feet in one hundred: and Becond. To widen Second street from Figueroa Btreet to Bunker Hill avenue to eighty feet. Third. That in view of the great ex penee of a cut at Bunker Hill and Grand avenues, and the necessarily long delay in accomplishing the same, your commit tee would recommend, as a temporary means of getting immediate benefit of a street without expense of the cut, that a tunnel be constructed under the hill on Second street, from Hone street to Olive street, on a grade not to exceed four feet in a hundred.' A resolution was also passed authoriz ing the Street Committee to have the necessary ordinances drawn to re-estab lish the grade and formulate the district of assessment. Weather la the •!ahueng-a. Editors Herald—Up to 12 m. Friday the rain for the season at this point (Cahuenga mountains) was 35 and 3-10 inches. At old Monte Vista, the old Lindley place, it was aoout 30 inches, showing a difference of 5 inches in less than two miles. The difference in alti tude is 900 feet, which is the reason for the increase of condensation. In these cool, moist days the wood-fire is appre ciated, and the ease with which this luxury is obtained in the California mountains is an inducement to settle ment, even if there were no other induce ments. With a mattock one may take from the ground roots enough in ten minutes to keep warm all the twenty four hours. Notwithstanding the amount of rain, the ground does not appear to be exces sively wet. The fact is, that the mountain lands seldom become bo, however much rain falls, and the beauty of the situation is, that the moisture stays longer than on the plains. One of the reasons for the tree and shrub growth here is this capacity to retain moisture. Mine-tenths of the area of the State is hills and mountains. On this vantage ground rests our certainty of empire within a generation. The Coast range contains millions of homes yet unoccupied and unclaimed that have the soil, fuel, water and climate superior to any flat land anywhere. Some few farseeing people have taken advantage of a knowledge of these facts and located accordingly; while the many seek jhe lowlands or the vicinity of some town. In choosing a home the factor of health is a big item. It is better to be miles away from the valleys and towns on the score of health, even if one does work for a smaller im mediate sum. In the end it is true economy. With a good book or news paper one can choose his own company, which is not always the case where neighbors are too near; and then the orchestra of nature is no mean substitute for the more artidcial music of paid choristers. F. M. Shaw. Cahuenga Mountains, Jan. 4, 1890. city £ngrliieer's Report. The City Engineer will report as fol lows to the Council on Monday: On the protest of J. W. Ernest et al. againet the proposed change in tbe grade of Temple street, from Metcalf to a point 98 feet west of Edgeware road, a majority of the frontage is represented. In the matter of the petition of Joseph Martin, calling attention to a break in the Arroyo de los Reyes pipe near Sev enth and Olive streets, recommended that the 30-inch pipe now laid be relaid at the expense of property-owners at the places where breaks have occurred, and at least three feet of earth be ordered placed over the same, as said pipe bursts from the pressure where it is not so filled. On the petition of the Los Angeles Cemetery Association, asking that the culvert crossing First street be enlarged; recommended that a 30-inch pipe be laid on each side of the present culvert. On the petition of It. Bherer, aeking for rebate of taxes paid on lot 73 of the Goldsworthy subdivision; find that the petitioner has paid taxes on the portion of said lot that has been condemned by the city for street purposes as stated in the petition. He is therefore entitled to rebate. Tne Clearing- Home. The following is a statement of the business transacted by the Clearing House during the week: Exchanges. Balances.
