Santa Monica -Newa notes. The attendance at tha midwinter fair is increasing steadily, and its volume seems to assure the pecuniary anccess of the venture. knowledge that tbe cut-rate facility will expire in less than a wsek is starting the tide of eastern tourist travel home at a very lively rate. However, this is more tban made np by the tremendous number of persons who are en ronte to the Paciflo coast, impelled by the same commercial instinct. Ths accounts whioh reach the pnblio concerning one T.

Bayard Smith show tbat debonnair young gentleman np in the role of a most consummate scoundrel. As a smooth operator he has proved himself to be quite a success. Surprises are the order of tbe day. Tkis vicious fellow has victimized a yonng and lovely wife and simply astounded a large oircle of friends. Perhaps one of the most farcical and finicky aspects of the politics of the day is the assumed seriousness with which the organs of the Democratic and Republican parties belabor each other, while a strong sentiment ie gathering which despises, arraigns and antagonizes them bith.

For instance, there is something very peculiar when two such men as Jones and William in the Republican like the handwr' but itio party, irgan have restive loadermbmitted. pestiferous San Franof a most trial of two anirth. The aell, who per 3, his io ooly a few Jack, when lie killed poor Thie- Tbe second ia a big gi zzly bear, lly noted for h.B ferocity. It wae posed to get up a right between these in the arena where the shows 'ace daily, and one would think he at least a cane of "fight hua'' hear along comes thu 'oresaid and puts a veto not have failed to be one shindies in tbe world sted. i of the Republican party rhaps a justifiable pride in tbe fui they have always succeeded iv keeping their tbievea out of the penitentiary.

Though their offuncea were blacker than anything known in Cimmeria in its palmy days of blacknese, Republican raacals are never allowed to Bailor. The morale of the party must be preserved at all hazards, if it ia necessary even to make a man a United States senator to enable him to continue to breathe the free air of heaven, us waa the caee with Matthew Stanley Quay, one of tbe senators from Pennsylvania, the sacrifice is cheerfully made. The Democrats, on the other hand, pursue a different policy. They give their rogues into the hands of the law, as was the caae with Tweed and his associates, and as was also the caae with John Y. Mc- Kane, the other day.

It is esrtainly not running io extremes to thy. if the grand old party bail followed tha Ua.noeratic party in this respect tbe accommodations in our penitentiaries would be much more crowded than they are now. In fact, under such a system, sleeping room in onr prisons wonld now be at a premium. LET IT BE A ROUSING DEMONSTRATION. The Herald has from time to time referred to tbe great meeting of the Citizens' league and its supporters which has beeu advertised to take place tonight at tbe Grand opera honss.

It will be addresaed by a number of very distinguished gentlemen, amongst tbe rest, by tbe Hon. Joseph Medill, exmayor of Chicago. There ought to be, and donbtless will be, a large and representative attendance of taxpayers at tbia gathering. To suppose otherwise wonld be to assume that tbe people of Los Angelee are not inteiested in having good local government. If tbe persons who pay tbe enormous taxes wbich are imposed npon any one who is a citizen of both the city and county of Los Angeles cannot nnd time to attend a meeting of this kind be deserves to ace his already excessive tax imposts awollsn to a downright rent.

Although our city, as a considerable municipality, dates bnt from the other day, tba amount of taxes our citizens have to pay are large enough for a community that dated from tha building of the grand pyramids. As it is entirely in tbeir power to enforce good and economical government, by taking an interest in their own affairs, it behooves tbsra to be up and doing. Great of reform start from precisely such beginnings, and there is no placing a limit to tbe good wbich may be done by snch salutary departures from the ordinary hum-drum of cut and dried politics. Those who go to the Grand opera house tonight are sure to learn much that will redound to tbeir individual benefit, and tbey will have tbe agreeable consciousness of knowing that tbey themselves are giving the impetus which will lead onto better things. 80 let every one and bis neighbor be en band to aid in starting the ball rolling.

The very atr is pregnant witb the idea that a great change for tbe better in our municipal affairs is ahead. Our esteemed contemporary, the Express, has a political department presided over by "A Looker Un," whose lively contributions to current gossip are frequently as much recommended by the information tbey contain as by their vivacity. Thus, in the issue of that journal of yesterday, speaking of gubernatorial candidates, the following passage ocenrs: Tbe other conspicuous gubernatorial candidate in the ranks of the Democracy is the man who waa chosen chairman at Fresno, Barney Murphy. Mr. Murphy is said to own half of San Jose.

Whether he does or not, he owns a big alios of it, and has numerous other property interests. If he was governor lie would do what ha could to remove the state capital to San Jose. He is a millionaire several times over, so that tbe campaign would be lively for the boys if be waa nominated. He has never held any office except being a member of the Democratic state central committee since time immemorial, and aiwaya contributes handsomely to Democratic campaign expenses. The only trouble with bim, as a prominent local Democrat put it to me yeaterday, is that be la always a candidate until the convention meets, when ne to get alarmed and runs away.

If bis frienda can overcome that weakness of bis, tbey think they can nominate him with ease. This will be great news to the friends and acquaintancee of the Hon. Bernard D. Murphy, yclept "Barney," who probably tilled more offices tban any man in the state until he got tired of being an office holder, such aB mayor of San Jose don't remember just now how often, and state senator, we cannot recall just how many terms, as our memory has been busy on other things for the past few daya. If peraeverea his declarations aa to tbe careers of the persons whose political aspirations he discuesea will soon come to be looked upon as ex cathedra.

Around Los A ales jost, now in stste gr circles there iB great indignation anent toe uniform scandal which has been extensively diecusied in the papers of California. There is more than a suspicion that there has been jobbery iv this matter, and there ia a certainty of absolute hogging. The uniforms are shoddy and the money has all been spent up north. "Why," the local soldiery ask, "Why was that portion of the state's money whioh should bave been for uniforming the Lob Angelee portion of the state guard not spent in Loa Angeles?" This is a question which Adjutant-General Allen and his associates will hno it bard to answer. Major Drinil has etirred up a whole menagerie, and ii he stand? by his guns there will be a good deal of liveliness in etate army circles.

The Herald cannot (or ita life ace why the Loa Angeles and Southern California mercers and tailors should have been utterly ignored. As the hoard entrusted with Buch matters, of which the ex-Angeleno, Adjutant- General Allen, is the ex-officio head, started out to pursue tbia invidious policy, the least they could have done would have been to Eteer clear of ahoddy and to have been open and above board. Aa it is, the local soldiery have to confront both a jobbing and a hogging bad enough, hut both together absolutely insufferable. If ever there was a small fry dema gogue itia Mr. Tom Reed of Maine.

We have not ihe siighteat desire to underestimate the "sinartneja" of thia ac complished parliamentary fakir. He ia the author of the doctrine that members present and not voting should be counted in estimating a quorum. He iB lending himself to the work of obstructing the bueiness of congress by failing to vote. His object in doing this is to force a Democratic speaker to imitate hia course while presiding officer of the houae. Thua, when it was sought day before yesterday to obtain a quorum on the question of seating a member whom the ooinmittee on eleutlons.

had reported entitled LOS ANGELES HERALD, SATURDAY MORNING MARCH 84, 1894, to his seat, Mr. Reed countenanced and aided the filibustering of his party. Nobody dispntes the czar's light to vote agalbst seating the Demociatic contestant, who bad won a favorable report from the committee. But his failure to vote at all whan be waa present, and ought to have done ao, shows that his pretence of regard for the expeditions dispatch of business, which he advanced in support of his original ruling, is all mere leather and prunella. He cares nothing for tbe business ot tbe nation.

He, like his fellows, has an eye single to mere partisan advantage, and his conduct shows it indisputably. The Express tries to break tbe force of onr arraignment of the disastrous effects of the McKinley bill by parading a lot of figures, wbich simply show tbat tbere was aome vitality in the conntry until the McKinley bill got in its deadly work. It takes some time even ior tba virus of tbe rattlenake to become operative. That measure bss resulted in the evils wa particularized, overproduction ana consequent stagnation of labor, the cnrtailmsntof enr Earopsan markets, and the return of onr securities in large amount, with a consequent dram of gold. In thia brief note we have not followed the order observed by ns yeatsrday, but tha summary is the same in essentials.

Its justice will be disputed by nobody wbo is not anxious to buttress tba Republican party. Poor Lornk moat forlorn man on ia said, is to have a companion in misery, for it is rumored tbat Lord Rosebery is to marry a daughter oi tbe prince of Wales. Let tbe poor fellow look before he leaps I Ordinary dolor compared to such a fate as that would be bliss indeed. He who is to inherit the strawberry of the house of Argyle hau undoubtedly wiehed himself dead a thousand times since he married tbe Princess Louise. By that mostnnfortunate of all misadventures he joined until himself a by no means pretty but most unmistakably masterful helpmate, wbo has ever since shown great delight in snubbing bim in season and out of season, on all occasions that served her purpose, and making the occasion when it failed to present itself in the natural course of events.

Alas! poor Rosebery 1 An thou lovest thyself remain a widower. Sensations are tbe order of the day. Tbe thng who shot Cashier Herrick in San Francisco yesterday turns out to be Fredericks, the man who killed Sheriff Psscoe and wno was a confederate of Chris Evans. Taka it all in all, thess piping times of pears are not without exciting and novel incidenta, ao to speak. SOCIETY.

AMUSEMENTS. Bcrbank Charles Comelli Imperial Japanese Novelty troupe steadily gains popularity, as was confidently anticipated. Tbs theater last night was well filled in aye ry part, and the bursts of applause accorded to the performers were as loud and earnest as have ever been heard in the theater. The company comprises 12 Japanese, and tbe amazing feats and remarkable jugglery they are capable of enacting remind the spectator of what he has read and heard of tbe wonderful exhibitions of tbe far orient, but what he orb nevfc. before witnessed, and must witness to believe.

These lads recall to the mind the quaint scenes we see in the Japanese screens, and in one act, "A Sample of Darwin's Transmigration Law," a little Jap flattens fcimself againat an upright shade and looks aB if he was simply a painting. The tricks are too numerous to be named in detail. The company closes its engagement Saturday evening next, and during the week beginning on Monday next, entirely new and startling features will be introduced. There will be a regular matinee this afternoon at 2 o'clock, PERSONAL. 8.

His Lawyers Firmly Convinced of His Insanity. Buff Higglus Deprived of the Company of Mayor Harrison's Assassin on tho Sallows Yesterday's Hangings. By the Associated Press. Chicago, March order staying tbe execution of assassin Prendergast till April 6th, made by Judge Chetlain laat night, was served on Sheriff Gilbert this aaorning. Thomas, alias "Buff Higgins, wss banged in tha jail here at noon for the murder ef Peter MeCooey, an old city employee, last September.

Higgins and two pais planned to burglarize Me- Cooey's house. Higgins entered while the others kept watch outside. Me- Cooey, awakened by tbe noise, sat np in bed and was shot by Higgins without a word. Shortly before the hanging Higgins expressed special gratification that he did not have to sutler death on tbe same scaffold with assassin Prendergast, for whom he manifested the utmost averaion and contempt. He exhibited most wonderiul nerve throughout his trial and afterwards; it did not desert him at tbe supreme moment.

He made no remarks on tbe scaffold. He Claimed to the last tbat he was tbe victim of police persecution, and being sent to death on perjured testimony. As tbe trap fell with a clatter, ihe prisoners in tbe adjoining corridors set up a snout of "Hang Prendergast! Hang Prendergast and tbe little assassin cowsred further back into his cell, trembling and muttering imprecations. Attorney 0. 8.

Darrow said od.iy "The farther away from Chicago you get, ths more bitter you will dud the feeling againat l'reudergaat. It tbe southern part of the Btate, tbe prejudice is intense. Without knowing the lirat thing about tbe caae or considering the mental condition of Prendergaet, they say: 'Hang Lieutenant Governor Gill no doubt decided tbe caae before he ever heard from me. He stated be bad been influenced by public opinion, and beyond a doubt that alone influenced him." "My into est in tbis case," continued Mr. Darrow.

who is remarkably in earnest in his elijrt to save Prendergast, "is that of a humane man. Soon after the assassination, I became impressed with the idea that the outcast who had taken hia life waa inaane and would not receive juet treatment iv the criminal court. The case was one that could not be passed upon by tbe avnragecitizen without prejudice. My views were published in a Chicago paper, and at once I was appealed to by tbe lawyers of tbe defendant aud members of his family. At the Iroquois club I met many prominent men, members of tbe bench and bar, wbo entertained my views.

When Prendergast waa sentenced to be banged they argued that some one should take up the case. Mr. Gregory and 1 agreed to do ao, and from that time we have done all in our power to aave Prendergast from the gallows. All tbat we have done has been in tbe interest of justice. We have given our time without compensation and bave borne all onr own expenses." Who will meet the co-r, of the proposed insanity Mr.

Darrow was do not know. All that bas been done in tbe rase since we look hold of it has been paid for by Mr. Gregory and myself. We shall probably meet the expense of this proceeding, whicb will not be considered for tbe present, but many prominent men, and a few pubiic men, have offered to contribute to a fund to give Prendergast the benefit of tbe law. Thereforo, it is likely that the court expenses will be met by public subscription.

Neither Mr. Gregory nor myself expect any compenaation for' what we bave done or may be able to accomplish." Meaars. Darrow and Gregory are among tbs foremost lawyers in Chicago. Tbeir connection witb tbe case has been a surprise, as neither needs advertising and both eschew criminal practice, SHOT HIS PLAYMATE. Fatal Result of Two Boys' Playing With a Pistol.

San Dieoo, March Schultz, aged 12, son of Charles Schultz, living a. 168 Twelfth street, was accidentally shot and killed by Frank Bingham, aged 14, son of J. A. Bingham, at about 6 o'clock last evening, 'ihe lads were playintr near tbe Silver Gate flour mill at Eighth and streets when it was suggested tbat they get some cartridges in tbe mill and try to get tbem in a revolver owned by the Schultz boy. Tbey went inside and tried tbe cartridges, the Bingham boy holding the pistol, when a cartridge exploded.

The builet struck young Schultz in the left aide, went through tbe heart and came out of bis right side. Mr. Bingham, who owns the mill, appeared aoon alter and found tbe boy dead and his eon half crazy with fright. The father of the dead boy ran to tbe spot and picked his ion up and ran to tbe houae a Bhort distance away where an examination proved that the lad had died inetantly. The two familiea have been on the moat friendly terma and Mr.

Bingham and hia family offered every assistance in tbeir power to tbe bereaved parents. A severe rheumatic pain in tbe left shoulder had troubled Mr. J. H. a well knowndruggistof Dcs Moines, for over six months.

At times tbe pain wob so severe that he could not lift enything. With all he could do he could not get rid ol it until he applied Chamberlain's Pain Balm.

On account of the importance of the mass meeting to be held this evening, March 24th, under the auspices of the Citizens' league, when Mr. Joseph Medill and Mr. Harmon will diaeuaa the revision of our city charter, the Woman's Political club has thought it heat to defer their open meeting appointed for the same date. Tbe charter committee met at the city halt last evening, witb Mr.

Rhodes in the chair. Mr. Peasel was secretary, Messrs. Nickel and Munson were present, besides Bttveral prominent citizens, who wsre well pleased with the progress made. The future changes as outlined by the committee were well re ceived.

A DUDE BURGLAR. Young Vivian Horn to Ban Diego ud Takoa Too Much. Edgar W. Vivian, ears tbe San Diego Sun, arrived from Loi Angelea yeaterday noon, and during tbe afternoon aeenred a room in tbe Bon Ton building at and Rixth streets. Later he called on a number of old friends, for he need to live here.

lie ia the son of ex Rev. Arthur Vivian, who figured here during the boom, first as preacher and next as attorney at law. Edgar is about 20 years of age, is well dressed to tbe point of dudishness, and is evidently a rapid young man. As hs called on hia friends be took quite a number of sooial glaaaes, and in that way it happened tbat he did not reach bia rooms nntil abont midnight. Whether he took a nap is not known, but the next seen of bim was between 3 and 4 o'clock tbis morning, when O.

H. Oolton, manager of the house, was awakened by his wife in time to catch Vivian in tbe act of going through hia (Colton's) trousars. "What are you doing here?" cried Colton. Vivian did not wait to answer, but fled to his own room, and then said no more until this morning, when he talked the matter over with Chief of Police Brenuing. The lattsr went to see Colton, and shortly afterward tie was before Police Judge Dudley.

In the course of the arraignment whicb followed Vivian confessed the burglary, hi claimed be did it while he was very drnnk an realty not in a condition to know he was robbing anybody. The story was rather inconsistent, however, as the fact was revealed this morning that he had entered three rooms in the house, one of em being ilie room ol a sick man on an upper tlot He had there obtained a pocketbook witb 17.60. Tbe other room that of a bootblack, and asmaller amount of me ey was ootained. The two pocketbooks were found in tbe mattress of Vivian's bed. After the examination he was held for trial in the superior court on a charge of burglary.

He states that he bas been living in Los Angeles with his mother. His father has beeu practicing law lately in Portland and Seattle. CORRECT A CLERICAL ERROR. Modification of Deoree by the Supreme Court- In the matter of the estate of Jonathan Thompson, deceased, heretofore decided by the supreme court, a short opinion was received yesterday by Supreme mrt Clerk Sesnon, supplementary to tbe former duision, to correct a clerical error in the decree. It charged the appellant with $14,275 21.

This tbe supreme court say was an error, and orders that in addition lo ihe modification ordered, the superior court of San Luia Obispo county change the figures of tbe decree to $12,154.68. Chief Justice Boaity, in a asperate opinion, dissents from au orde, levying a rehearing in tbe case. He considers that the modification does not rectify all tbe rrors ol which the appellant Uns a right to com' He sbvi' that hs considers it a grave error to nltow intereet at tbe rate of 10 per cent, instead of tbe legal rate, 7 per cent.
