Her first victory, he declared, war, at Runnymede, when the English barons in 1215 A. D. compelled King John to sign tho great magna charta. Her greatest victory, he said, was accom plished on July 4, 1776, the day we cele brate. Her mortal enemies have been and are ignorance and selllsh ambitions and her dangers bossism, monopoly and priest craft. Yesterday a very Interesting shooting match took place. The distance was 200 yards, and the following contestants took part: Messrs. 13. Brown, T. V. Rider. Haven, Manning and Davis. Mr. Rider of Pasadena won the trophy with a score of 40 points out of a possible 50.

July 3.-(Regular Corre • pondence.) In response to a call Issued by the public library trustees eight applica tions have been received for the position ol librarian. Mrs. Delia Kernodle, who has served In that capacity ever since the In stitution was established, is an applicant for re-election, and her candidacy Is strong ly endoresd In a petition signed by a large number of taxpayers, but from published Interviews with members of the board. Ji is evident that she will meet with strenu ous opposition. A breach of harmony be tween the trustees and the librarian oc curred some time ago. but open hostilities were not begun until the recent action of the board, by which the librarian's sal ary was scaled down $10 per month. At that time Mrs. Kernodle's friends declared that the reduction was only the preliminary step In a scheme to oust her, and that in stead of taking this action In the Inter ests of economy, the real purpose was to Induce her to resign. And since a motion was passed inviting applications for the place, they have been all the more ve hement In declaring that a conspiracy ex ists and all the more active in their efforts to secure the lady's re-election. In the face of such strong oppostition it is doubt ful whether the trustees will remove Mrs. Kernodle, but If they do her friends say they will have a reckoning and promise the public a chapter of more exciting Interest than is contained in the library litera ture. The position of librarian has a salary of $30 per month attached, but the trustees «ay that if a person of proper training md experience can be secured they are willing to pay more. Over 500 people from this city are In Los Angeles today attending the grand dem onstration in honor of Wm. J. Bryan. Trals crowded to suffocation have been the rule for the last two days over both railroads, and the purpose of two-thirds of the passengers is to see and hear the great orator, und to celebrate the Fourth after they have gratified this desire. Quite a crowd attended the Maccabees' celebration at Newport today and the dance tonight promises to be a very pleas ant feature of the natal day program at that popular resort. Mrs. Ross-Lewin has returned from San Francisco, where she spent six weeks vis iting her brother, Dr. Vanderlip. Miss Nellie Luther and Miss De Vote ar rived from the east yesterday. RIVERSIDE RIVERSIDE, July s.—(Regular Corre spondence.) When Rlversiders read In yes terday's Herald of the issuance of a mar riage license in Los Angeles to Wm. R. Preston and Mrytle M. Robuck they were not a little surprised. Mr. Preston and Miss Robuck went to Los Angeles yesterday morning "on a lit tle excursion," and came home in the even ing, and after escorting the lady to her mother's home on the Tibbettß tract, Mr. Preston went to his homo on Magnolia avenue, where he lives with his mother. Neither said anything about having been married. Mr. Preston in an Interview with your correspondent admitted that he and Miss Robuck had been married. He said they wanted to keep their marriage secret for a short time merely to surprise the folks at home and for a Joke on their friends. Mr. Preston is a prosperous young horticulturist and his bride is the eldest daughter of the lato Horace Robuck. The court house fight, which has been Carried oh under cover for the past month will be resumed openly when the super visors meet Tuesday morning. From an Impartial view of the situation it would seem that Supervisor Shaver stands little Or no show of succeeding in his pet project of buying the Arlington Hotol property. Supervisor Compton wants to buy the Rdwell hotel, but It Is thought he will vots with Shaver, as he has no hopes of getting enough votes to purchase the Rowell. Su pervisors Edmlston and Dunbar have de dared themselves unalterably opposed to lie purchase of any lot on which there are any buildings that would add mate rially to the cost of the property. Super visor Thompson Is not opposed to the purchase of a lot containing buildings thai could bo uaed for a court house, but has declared he will have nothing what ever to do with any propostion involving com missions and go-betweens. He has inti mated very p'.ninly that he believes there is a job In both the hotel propositions. Su pervisor Shaver's claim Is that tho pur chase of the Arlington Is the best thing that we can do. Mr. Everest does not offer to re-lease It for less than $4300 a year, which Mr. Shaver thinks would be more expensive than buying it at $58,000. He says It could be remodelled at an ex pense of a few thousand dollars, the en gine room converted into a Jail by the putting therein of steel cells, and so pro vide the county with a court house and Jail ample and suitable for all purposes for ten- or twenty years. Strenuous objec tions to this plan are made by most of the citizens of Riverside, regardless of party affiliations, on grounds of general unsuita bler.ess and impracticability. Supervi sor Shaver says the country districts are unanimously in favor of his plan, and that the objection to it mi Riverside is solely due to the "Republican ring," which wants to put off tho purchase of a court house site until they are again in power, when they will cinch the taxpayers to the tune of a quarter or half a million dollars. The air Is full of petitions and statements and memorials and all sorts of misrepresenta tion and Improper influences are charged on both sides. The town is pervaded with Christian En deavor enthusiasm. A carload of River siders are getting ready to go to San Fran cisco. A big mass meeting in the City park yes terday was addressed on "Christian Citi zenship" by Lyman Evans, president of the Riverside school board, and Rev. W. J. Arnold, pastor of Calvary Presbyterian church. Patriotic songs were sung. SANTA MONICA SANTA MONICA, July 5.-(Regular Cor respondence.) Mr. and Mrs. F. S. Hicks, child and nurse of Los Angeles are at the Arcadia, to remain through the season. Mrs. Mary S. Caswell, principal of Marl borough school of Los Angeles, accom panied by her daughter, Miss Georgia Cas well, and her niece, Miss Georgia Knight, have come down to spend a month, and are pleasantly domiciled at the Anchor age.

Miss Beatrice Holland of Los Angeles Is the guest of Mrs. R. R. Harris of Sixth and Michigan streets. A young man named Simpson, employed In the San Pedro fish market in Los An geles, had quite a painful accident at the North Beach plunge today. While In his bathing suit and standing near one of the large windows on the north.end, he lost his balance and fell through, receiving sev eral bad cuts about the shoulder, side and head. A Los Angeles physician brought him to Dr. Hamilton's office, and, as the doctor was not In, dressed the wounds him self for the unfortunate lad. Private Appleford of Company I, Pasa dena, N. G. C, was seriously Injured while making a trip to Santa Monica in company with other members of Company I over the electric line. They came via the cut-off, and when near Sherman switched off to allow a regular to pass. While waiting Mr. Appelford alighted to look down the track. When the car started again he jumped on the platform, not noticing a line pole by the track, and before he had gained a firm footing or balance the pole struck him, koncklng him through the end window. Three very deep gashes were cut in his throat, two penetrating into the throat and very narrowly escaped the jugular and windpipe. Dr. Doty dressed the wounds ' and said the wounded militiaman was made of the stuff of which heroes are made. Mr. and Mrs. Brandt, Mrs. A. Haas and family. Mr. M. Bolton, J. W. Wolters, Mrs. Vrcadla de Baker and maid and Miss Y. 8, Scott are among the Los Angeles people '.vho are stopping at the Arcadia. Dr. Fleming and W. E.

LOS ANGELES HERALD: TUESDAY MORNING, JULY ( % 1897 ME GREAT Al GLORIOUS Fill (Continued from Page Five) In the face of all these facts, can we not paraphrase Goldsmith, and Justly exclaim: "The first, best country ever is our home." In the face of all these facts, can it be doubted for a moment that a people who have achieved so much will prove ;hemeelves worthy of their achieve ments and capable of coping with the future. I believe, I feel, I know, that progress is our destiny; that with true patriotism we will keep Jealous watch and ward over our country and her Interests, guarding her constantly from the at tacks of her enemies and the mistakes of her friends; that we will be zealous ir. war, if we are called upon to defend our liberties or our honor, and vigilant in peace; that we will ever have an eye ingle to the general good, and will never allow it to be dimmed by personal ,reed or selfish considerations; that we will realize more and more, as we grow ; n wisdom' and prosperity, "how pleas ant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity," and will more and more put aside, as unworthy of us, all internal bickerings and dissensions; that we will expand, and wax stronger with the years; that In our keeping the torch of freedom will never lose its luster, and that we will continue to stand upon the highway of nations, the glorious apothe osis of liberty enlightening the world! a patriotic Concert i * AT SIMPSON TABERNACLE LAST EVENING Closes the Exercises of the Day. Judge Allen Presided—Vocal and Instrumental Music Nearly everybody that didn't go to the banquet last night went to Westlake park, but there were a few hundreds who finished up their Fourth at Simp son tabernacle, where a concert was an nounced. The edifice was decorated with flags and palms, and the Mexican Philharmonic band played a tuneful in vitation on the sidewalk while the audi ence was assembling. Once inside the fame band played Schubert's "Serenade" and two other selections, which would have been very enjoyable if the musicians hadn't mis taken the tabernacle for a ten-acre lot every few bars and if two or three of the instruments had been tuned to the same key. However, these are minor dis crepancies, and the rest of the concert was delightful. Judge M. T. Allen was on the pro gram a© president of the evening. For tunately the judge is so well known that he needed no one to introduce him, and he entered alone and proceeded to his opening remarks with the statement that he believed it was customary for the president of an eventing to thank the committee who had invited him to preside; and he (Judge Allen) should be charmed to thank the literary commit tee, to whom he was indebted for the courtesy, but as not one of them was present he must ask the audience to do that for him when they next «?aw any one of that committee. The judge then said he was not going to make a speech, that people could get a surfeit even of oratory, and that he believed the grand acts of the heroic founders of this glor ious nation could be told as well in song and story, so he would introduce Miss Estelle C. Heartt, who would sing "Love's Recall," by Frede-rick Steven eon. The graceful little song is quite within the range of her beautifully mel low and musical middle notes, and Miss Heartt sang it so delightfully that she was insistently recalled ,and she sang Molloy's "Oh, the Pity o' It" as an en core. Miss Angela Anderson next read "Lib erty Bell." Mies Anderson displayed a sweet, well-modulated voice, clean dic tion, and she, too, won a deserved en core, to which she responded with "Jane Jones." C. S. Cornell gave a dramatic spirited reading of Schumann's, "The Grena diers," and his voice shows little effect of his recent illness. As an encore Mr. Cornell sang Wallace's "The Sword of Bunker Hill." To all of these songs Miss Mary L. O'Donoghue played delightful sympa thetic accompaniments. The Amphion quartet brought down the house with their patriotic rendition of "The Flag Without a Stain," and were obliged to sing an encore. WESTLAKE Seventh Regiment Band Concert at the Park Enormous crowds flocked to Westlake park last evening to enjoy a concert by the Seventh Regiment band. The de licious cool air after the extreme heal of the day put the musicians on their mettle, and they never played better. The audience, too, seemed to be in an unusually receptive mood for such a place and occasion, and the concert was one of the most delightful and best en joyed Incidents of the celebration. BAND CONCERT Job Lot Trio at East Side Park Yesterday A large crowd assembled at the East Side park last evening to hear the band concert promised by the Fourth of July committee. After waiting some time a "band" consisting of two drums and an asthmatic fife put In an appearance and bayed the moon. The fact that one of the musicians was intoxicated added greatly to the enjoyment of the occa sion. Tho crowd stood the desolating sounds for a short time and then de parted expressing their candid opinion of the lessees of the boating privileges. As It happened these people had nothing to do with the musical "recital."
