PACIFIC BREEZES. A Domestic Tragedy at Stockton. NEWS FROM THE UPPER COAST. Sailors Swallowed by the Hungry Deep-The State Fair Directors. I Associated Press Dispatches to the Herald. I Stockton, August 4.?John Chamber- lain, a laboring man about 30 years old, shot his wife, probably fatally, and killed himself shortly before 1 o'clock this afternoon. The neighbors were startled by hearing three shots and almost im- mediately the woman ran out with bloc I running over her clothing. She was car- lied into a friend's house and the phy- sicians afterward removed her to the county hospital. The neighbors fearing to go in the house where the murderer was, telephoned for officers, and Sheriff Cunningham Eoon arrived and with others entered the shanty, finding the body of Chamberlain with a bullet hole in the center of the forehead. He lived nearly an hour but did not speak. The physicians postponed probing the woman's wound until to-morrow. She was shot in the right ear, but the ball can be felt a short distance back. It is feared the skull has been fractured and death may follow, but to-night she was resting quietly. The woman'says her husband asked her to get him something from a room, and as she came out he shot her. She fell and rolled out the front door just as he shot again. She regained her feet and ran, when the third shot, which killed him, was fired. She told the Coroner that her husband abused her a great deal, and was very jealous, but without cause. At times he acted strangely, and a month ago got up in tho night and took a pistol to kill her, but was persuaded to put it away. He had done but little work for the past two months, and frequent quarrels were heard by the neighbors. Last week he went atvay, looking for work, and on re- turning charged his wife with having been away from home at night during his absence. She had kept house some years ago for an old man named Hunt- ington, living near this city, and Chain - berlin frequently charged "her with car- ing too much for the old man. An in- quest was held and a verdict found in accordance with the facts. THE UPPER COAST. Oregon's IndeinnUy Claims? The Seasou's Salmon Pack, Etc. Portland, Ore., August 4.?Acting under a law requiring the Secretary of State to collect, prepare and present all the accounts of the State againßt the General Government, Secretary of State Mcßride is busily engaged in forwarding to the Interior Department at Washing- ton proofs in support of claims for indem- nityfor expenses incurred by the State in the Indian wars of 1577-S. The amount of claims is about $44,000, and all obtain- able vouchers and proofs have already been forwarded to the Department, and these papers are now being considered by the auditors. To-day at Hillsboro, Ore., the three- year-old Fritz Hambleton, while being driven on the track, slipped and broke his leg at the pastern. He was going his mile in 2:40. The animal was valued at $3,000. Since the 31st alt. salmon packing on the lower Columbia has entirely ceased. Results were more satisfactory, finan- cially, than for several years. " Twenty- eight canneries ran this year against thirty-nine last season. It is thought this season's pack will aggregate more than that of 1887. The total pack so far aggregates 300,820 cases. Tracklaying on the Riparia branch of the Oregon Railway and Navigation Co.'s road has been completed to Endi- cott and it is expected through trains willbe running over the line in ten days. THK SHINGLE MAKERS ORGANIZE. Tacoma, W. T., August 4. ?Over twen- ty-five shingle manufacturers of the Puget Sound and Columbia districts had a meeting here to-day to consider the question of making uniform grades of cedar shingles, a general advance in prices, and to secure better and more uniform rates of transportation. An as- sociation willbe formed, to be called the North Pacific Cedar Shingle Manufac- turers' Association. TIRED OF LIFE. Garfield, W. T., August 4. ?A man named Frank Allen was run over to-day by a locomotive on the Oregon Railway and' Navigation Company's line, and killed. Allen apparently placed himself on the track on a low trestle, with his arm and feet between the ties, and breast across the rail. The wheel cut his chest nearly in twain, killing him instantly. He had been drinking, and was probably tired of life. Victoria, B. C, August 4.?The steamer Cariboo arrived from Skeena river this evening with the latest advices which show that the Indian situation is about the same as before telegraphed. Superintendent Boycraft and a'dozen pro- vincial constables passed seventy miles up the river on their way to Hazelton. The Indians are opposed to the con- stables going up, but so far they had proceeded without molestation. The constables have built two bastions at the Hudson Bay port, and keep watch night and day. The Indians threaten that if their chiefs are taken they will kill all the white people they meet. However, Battery C is to return next trip to Cariboo. NEW COASTERS. The Corona Launched"The Pomo- na's First Trip. Pan Francisco, August 4.?Goodall, Perkins & Co. to-day received a telegram announcing that the Company's new steel steamer Corona was "successfully launched this morning at Philadelphia. Itis expected that the Corona will be finished by the middle of September. She is to be fitted up with all the latest improvements and will be furnished throughout handsomely. She is intended for the Southern route and will ply be- tween San Francisco and San Pedro and intermediate points. The new steamer Pomona arrived in port this morning from San Pedro and way ports, having made a very satis- factory trip. She averaged thirteen and a half knots per hour on the round trip, and came from Santa Cruz, a distance of seventy-five miles, in five hours and ten minutes. THE STATE FAIR. Senator Rose Scores Several of tne Directors. Sacramento, August 4.?The State Agricultural Society met this afternoon There is a good deal of talk about a letter L. J. Rose, of Los Angeles, one of the members of the Society, Las written to the Board scoring several Directors who voted to give privileges to Killig& Co., for sixty-five per cent of tho gross re- ceipts for commissions, when H. Schwartz &Co. offered bids. higher by per cent. A motion by Larue to reconsider the vote by which the wheel of fortune privilege was let, was lost. The Board then opened entries for the races, all the classes being filled except one. Clerks and other officers for the management of the fair were appointed. A MARINE CATASTROPHE. A l.iirare Number of Seamen Killed lv a Wreck. San Francisco, August s.?New Zea- land advices received to-day by the steamer Alameda state that the ship Star of Greece went ashore near Adelaide Harbor, July 13th. Next morning the after part of the ship disappeared, and many of the crew, including the cap- tain," were drowned. Several were crushed to death by the wreckage. Six men jumped overboard together, but their efforts to reach shore were un- successful and all perished. The total number of persons on board was twenty- seven, including two passengers, and of these only the first and third officers and four men and four apprentices have been saved; all the others were drowned or otherwise killed. ARIZONA RUMORS. More Redskin Deviltry Reported. Heading- for Sonora. Tucson, August 4.?The trainmen to- day brought word that two teamsters had been killed by the Indians near Globe, but no official news has been re- ceived at military headquarters. Lieu- tenant Gatewood will arrive to-night and proceed with a relay of horses to join General Miles. It is rumored that the Indians have broken into three bands all heading for Sonora by circuitous routes. ADEAD SQUAW, Yuma, Ariz.

Miners Capitulate. Marysville, August 4. ?Letters have been received here from hydraulic min- ers stating that as the United States Government decided to take a hand in their prosecution, they will dismantle their monitors and henceforth desist from that class of mining. Wire Willis. Among the callers on General Harrison Saturday was Geo. Christ, National Com- mitteeman from Arizona. At Pittsburg a severe wind storm Sat- urday afternoon blew down a new house on the South Side and two workmen were fatally crushed. Immense damage has been done by volcanic disturbances in the Lipari Islands. Details are not obtainable. The cable to the mainland has been de- stroyed. At Philadelphi a Florence Lesher shot and killed Wm, Grisman, a railroad conductor, with whom Bhe lived, and then with a razor cut her own throat. He had threatened to leave her. At Berlin the police seized 15,000 vol- umes of immoral French novels and 2000 photographs. The book-sellers con- cerned in the selling of censured novels and other prohibited works, demand a trial. Anarchists attacked the postoffiee at Neu Kazee, near Petersburg. The officials fought and repulsed the robbers but the latter secured the cash box and took that and their wounded away with them. marine Intelligence.

New York, August 4.?The Harlem' Democratic Club had a large ratification meeting to-night. Among those present were Congressmen Boger O. Mills, of Texas, and W. C, P. Breckiniidge, of Kentucky, and Colonel George F. Frey, of Georgia. Ancient and modern Art. Sir John Millais, in an interesting ar- ticle in the Magazine of Art, pronounces against blind adoration of the old mas- ters. He says time and varnish are two of the greatest among the old masters, and that the only way to judge an old picture is to ask what was this like when it was new. He claims for pictorial art a steady evolution upward, though condi- tions and the demands of public taste are entirely changed. Of modern sculp- ture he says: "So fine is some of the work our modern sculptors havo given us that Iverily believe that were it dug up from under oyster shells in Borne or out of Athenian sands, with a stamp of partial dismemberment about it, all Europe would fall straightway into ec- stasy, and give forth their plaintive wail: "We can do nothing like that now." ? [London Special to the New York Times. The Democratic majority in Georgia appears to bother some of the Bepubli- cans in Congress. And yet that majority is not as large as it would be if the Dem- ocrats had opposition.?[Atlanta Consti- tution, (Dem). CABLE LETTER. The Young Kaiser Will Visit England. HIS ITINERARY REVISED. Rigid Measures Adopted Against the Anarchists?Social and Political Gossip. I Copyright, 1888, by New York Associated Press. I Berlin, August 4. ?Emperor William's monarchical itinerary since his interview with Prince Bismarck at Fredericksrhue, has been modified in most directions. It was supposed that the Emperor, in ac- cordance with family arrangements, would pay his respects to the Queen of England duiing her projected stay at Baden. The Queen, however, intimated through the German Embassy at London, that she did not intend to go to Baden, or any other place on tho Continent. Yesterday a formal note was sent by Prince Bismarck through the English embassy asking that the Queen would receive Emperor William, who intended to visit England. The Emperor will ar- rive in London in November during the winter session of Parliament. Under present circumstances His Majesty's visit to England will be a State and not a family affair, and the Queen must meet him in London or at Windsor. Foreign officials believe that Prince Bismarck intends to accompany Emper- or William to England for the purpose of conferring with the Queen on affairs relating to the late Emperor Frederick. Nothing is settled regarding the Em peror's proposed interview with King Humbert. The papal nuncio continues to urge the Emperor to forego his visit to King Humbert, unless the meeting takes place at Milan or Turin. Communications are passing between Prince Bismarck and Signor Crispi, the Italian Prime Minister, on the subject of the marriage of the Duke of Aosta with the daughter of Princo Napoleon. The French monarchists expect that the alliance will divert Italy from Germany and assist in resuscitating Bonapartism. Signor Crispi is understood to repudiate any responsibility for the match. ANARCHIST TROUBLES. Continuous arrests have been made since Thursday mornh'.g of suspected Socialists in Berlin, Hamburg, Leipsic, Frankfort and every centre. They are supposed to be associated with an Anar- chist plot in Vienna for a simultaneous attempt to rob the postoffices and banks in Austria and Southern Germany. The Berlin Police Bureau has avert- ed arresting the leading So- cialists, but under communications from Vienna, are shadowing Austrian Anarchists. The Imperial Austrian decree signed by the whole Cabinet to suspend trial by jury in the charges against Anarchists throughout five provinces, including Prague and Gratz, is to remain in force one year. It empowers the Government, without judicial warrant, to arrest, imprison and execute not only Socialists but per- sons sheltering suspects, forbids the sale, possession or manufacturing of arms and ammunition; prohibits pub- lic meetings or tho assembling of crowds; authorizes the police to make domiciliary visits and to search newspa; er offices and take summary measures regarding the editors, and imposes Btringent rules respecting passports on the arrival and departure of foreigners. Arbitrary as the decree appears it is forced upon the Government by Anarchist conspiracies, like the analogous decree of 1884, when tho American Anarchists sent some of their associates to try to burn Vienna. It is based upon the discovery of extensive preparations to try to cap- ture the Government offices where money is stored and which are least pro- tected. Austrian Anarchists hold con- stant intercourse with Anarchists in France, England, Switzerland and Amer ica. Only a small section of the German Anarchists are affiliated with them. POLITICAL FACTIONS. The combination of the government parties has strongly cemented the Na- tional Liberals and enabled them to unite with the Conservatives. They have agreed to nominate common candidates, and the Clericals who hoped toisolate the National Liberals and unite the forces with the Conservatives are now left out in the cold. The Nationals are seizing the advantage of an incident which occurred Sunday in an Evangelical Church at Solingen, to ridicule the Cleri- cals. Pastor Tummel was lecturing there on the adoption of the relics of the ceremonial which recently occurred at Aix La Champelle. He accused the Archbishop of Cologne of blasphemy and a breach of the third amendment. The Burgomasterof Solingen.whois Catholic, but who was present in the church in his official capacity, rose and ordered the congregation to disperse. Pastor Thum- mel forbade the congregation to go and concluded the service amidst intense suppressed excitement. The pastor de- clared his intention to prosecute the Burgomaster for brawling in a place of worship. The whole German press dis- cusses the incident rather to the disad- vantage of the clericals. GENERAL GOSSIP. Dr. Windthorst is better. His party papers deny tbat his illness is serious, but he is not able to reply to corres- pondence. King Milan of Servia, with the Crown Prince, arrived at Vienna to-day. He wires here to say that he willremain at Vienna until to-morrow night, when he takes the Crown Prince to some place in Southern Bavaria. Tho King goes hunt- ing with the Prince Regent. The eldest son of the Regent, Prince Rupperecht, has got into trouble through an amour with the daughter of a wealthy citizen of Munich. He wants to marry the girls but her friends refuse to allow him to see her unless the Regent assents to a formal betrothal. A document which appeared in the Nouvelle Revue purporting to be a com- munication from Bismarck on the pro- posed marriage of Prince Alexander, of Battenburg, and Princess Victoria, of Germany, is justly treated here with contempt. Its representations are ac- cepted as probably in the true line of Bismarck's policy, but it has not the re- motest analogy to Bismarck's style. Temple's Fresh Laurels.. London, August 4.?Temple, of Chica- go, won the twenty-mile cycle champion- ship at Leicester to-day, defeating How- ell and Wood. Temple also defeated j Howell in the five-mile race.

Editors Hkrald?l wish to appeal through you to the people who owe it as a duty to the agricultural interest of our section to aid by their attendance in the success of the fair beginning to-morrow. The Directors have done all in their pow- er, not only to make this the best fair ever held here, but also to meet the ob- jections of the conservative classes of people to do away with all public gambling, and to maintain that decorous order which will make if a fit place where a man can take his wife and family, and every lady will have as much protection from profane or vulgar lan- Suage as if attending any other well-con- ucted place of amusement. This is the aim of the Directors and they will do all in their power to carry it out. On the other hand they wish the attendance of this conservative element of society in order to have that moral backing-up that such attendance gives. Nor should it be believed that this Fair is simply a matter of pleasure for a few horsemen. It is a matter of deeper concern for every citizen, especially of Los Angeles county. We are now all racing in the booming line. Every one is trying for a fortune in speculation in corner lots, whereas the material inter - ests of agriculture are lost sight of, yet this Fair and all Fairs have for their foundation the engendering of a love for the growing of fruits, flowers, chickens, pigs, cattle, horses, etc., thus making incomes from our lands, which in the end make lam's desired and valuable. To encourage this by your attendance, good people, you will see when you look at it, is aiding to bring this about, for nothing will educate the young people to a desire to follow agricultural pursuits as to have them appreciated by the many. There has been a change made this year in having all agricultural exhibits of the products of the farm, the vegetable and fruit garden, at the Fair Grounds, so that not only the lovers of stock can find entertainment, but also those who are otherwise engaged in agriculture. The horse racing will have a place to itself, and away from the Grand Stand or public generally, and will have to be sought, and not be thrust on the notice of any one. It should be remembered that in any locality where the most enlightened agriculture prevails, there, too, will be found the most successful fairs, and also in the raising of the highest types of the horse Los Angeles may claim very great prominence, and public attention is al- ready being drawn this way, and money from the East is coming this way, and a continued inquirymade to buy. Kentucky has made herself rich by every man, woman and child believing ; horse and talking horse, yet we have many advantages over every part of ; Kentucky, and this is gradually being understood, and the hope is not a des- perate one to believe that in the near future we will stand out as the "Mecca" j to which all horsemen will pay their yearly pilgrimage. It only requires ! that we believe it ourselves to sho v by our earnest attention that we are aware of these advantages, to make them the desired locality for breeding establish- J merits and thus make our valuable alfalfa ' lands bring an income which will justify ! a boom and make an income which will ' justify our high values. Thousands of dollars already have come into this County from other States for horses, and the future is big with , greatly increased possibilities. It only requires that the people should all show : their appreciation of what we have. Remember these great possibilities are 1 all in their infancy only. We will have at ' this Fair some of the finest horses in the , world. Think of these things and treat yourself kindly by enjoying one weeks' ' enjoyment. You will not only get full ' value in pleasure, but you will be doing a duty to your district. L. J. Rose, Acting President. AMUSEMENTS. Walllck's Trained Horses to Appear at the Urand. This week the Grand Opera House \u25a0 will be a great center of attraction, when Wallick's superb company and his trained horses appear on the boards. cottox-mott minstrels. The Academy of Music will draw large crowds this week, where the Cotton-Mott minstrel troupe appear. Ren is the vet- eran negro showman of the world and will delight his old-time admirers from all parts of the Union. He is ably sup- ported by a fine company under the management of Sam C. Mott. The Street-Sweeper The street-sweeping machine was put to work for the first time last night on Spring street at its southern extremity. So far as could be judged last night, it operated successfully and took up all the dust and dirt on the pavement. General Baldwin had a gang of men on Spring and Main streets also last night, but took them off as soon as he learned that the street-sweeper was on the ground. Insane Delusions. Annie Stordorcher, of Pasadena, was examined before Judge O'Melveney yes- terday and found to be insane. She im- agined that several prominent men of Pasadena and vicinity had evil designs upon her. Judge O'Melveney ordered that she be confined in Napa until she recovers from her hallucinations. A Changed Charge. Sheriff Kays yesterday received word that Felix Monrey, who was stabbed at Spadra, had died from his wounds. Chiale Grasso, who was charged with as- sault to murder, and who is now at the County Jail, will now have to answer to the charge of murder. Ramona llohcuiian Club. Ameeting of the Ramona Bohemian Club will be held in the Herald editori- al rooms this afternoon at 3 o'clock. As business of great moment will come before the meeting, the attendance of all members of the Club is earnestly de- sired. How to Govern Young People. The average college president is but a poor judge of human nature. It is use- less to try to coerce a large body of young men into observance of any set of rules. I found in the course of a few years in the chair of a college president that in every school there are a few young men who are born leaders, and whom the rest of the boys follow like sheep do the bellwether. I made it my business early in each session to find out who these leaders were, and then I caltiv.'ited them. By placing in their hands re- sponsibility for the good deportment of the entire tchool I secured the best pos- sible discipline, and yet my young friends never dreamed that tbey were rendering me any service. From what I have seen in seminaries for young ladies the same rule holds good. Grown-up girls can be led a very fine string, but they are most difficult to drive. TALKS ON THE TARIFF. Showing now Contented Protect tion Makes The Workingman. The whole theory of the Republican protectionist idea is that it benefits American labor. The tariff is put on, so as to give your bos 3, the manufactur- er, a larger price for his product, and then he will ba able, of course, to pay i higher wages to bis men. Of course, it must follow that working- men in the "protected" industries are all happy and prosperous, for if the tariff isn't for high wages and the man who works, why who in thunder is it for. Well, let us see about it. Let us see how much happier or better paid or more contented the "protected" workingman is than the great majority of us who are not blessed with "protection." According to Bradstreet'* there were 884 strikes and lockouts in the United States last year, in which the total num- ber of strikers or locked-out men were 340,854. Of these, 248,955 or 73 per cent., were in the manufacturing States of Pennsyl- vania, New York, Ohio, New Jersey and Massachusetts. The great protectionist State of Pennsylvania led them all with a total of 111,317 strikers for the year, or nearly 33 per cent, of all in the United States. New York came next, with 02,650 or 18 per cent. High tariff taxes restrict production and will lessen work while increasing the cost of living to the common people. Free wool, for instance, would immense- ly stimulate the manufacture of various forms of woolen goods, giving work to many thousands now out of employment. A reduction in the price of clothing would enable some of us to buy two suits of clothing where we now buy one, and would enable all of us to dress better and more comfortably. This would be the increased demand for goods which is an equivalent to an increased demand for labor. "But this would spoil the wool-grow- ers' business," some protectionist may say to you. Don't you believe it. To begin with the professional wool-grower is not a very numerous individual and it is pretty certain that there will always be a good market for his product if our manufacturers gat a chance to diversify their manufactures by free access to the wool which is not grown here, but which by admixture with the home wools can be made up by superior American pro- cesses into American woolens that can then compete on favorable ground for the markets of the world. Why shall the average farmer, who may be incidentally a wool-grower on a small scale, worry about free wool? Honest tariffreform may possibly reduce the selling price of the small quantity of wool he has to sell; but it would make cheaper the coats of himself and sons and the dresses of his wife and daughters. It would cheapen the family blanket and the carpet on the floor. And tariff re- form in other things would cheapen the lumber for his house and barn, the iron that shoes h's horse and makes all his farm tools, the wire fence around his fields and a hundred other things upon which he must pay tribute to the protectionist manufacturer and monopolist. Rich and favored monopolists have been dictating the tariff legislation of this country for two generations. Now tho people who pay the piper have awakened and propose tohave something to say about it themselves.?[N. Y. News. What ilks Were Called.

A Domestic Tragedy atStockton.

NEWS FROM THE UPPER COAST.

Sailors Swallowed by the HungryDeep-The State Fair

Directors.

IAssociated Press Dispatches to the Herald. IStockton, August 4.?John Chamber-

lain, a laboring man about 30 years old,shot his wife, probably fatally, and killedhimself shortly before 1 o'clock thisafternoon. The neighbors were startledby hearing three shots and almost im-mediately the woman ran out with bloc Irunning over her clothing. She was car-lied into a friend's house and the phy-sicians afterward removed her to thecounty hospital. The neighbors fearingto go in the house where the murdererwas, telephoned for officers, and SheriffCunningham Eoon arrived and withothers entered the shanty, finding thebody of Chamberlain with a bullet holein the center of the forehead. He livednearly an hour but did not speak. Thephysicians postponed probing thewoman's wound until to-morrow. Shewas shot in the right ear, but the ballcan be felt a short distance back. It isfeared the skull has been fractured anddeath may follow, but to-night she wasresting quietly.

The woman'says her husband askedher to get him something from a room,and as she came out he shot her. Shefelland rolled out the front door just ashe shot again. She regained her feetand ran, when the third shot,which killed him, was fired.She told the Coroner that her husbandabused her a great deal, and was veryjealous, but without cause. At times he

acted strangely, and a month ago got upin tho night and took a pistol to kill her,but was persuaded to put it away. Hehad done but little work for the past twomonths, and frequent quarrels wereheard by the neighbors. Last week hewent atvay, looking for work, and on re-turning charged his wife with havingbeen away from home at night duringhis absence. She had kept house someyears ago for an old man named Hunt-ington, livingnear this city, and Chain -berlin frequently charged "her with car-ing too much for the old man. An in-quest was held and a verdict found inaccordance with the facts.

THE UPPER COAST.

Oregon's IndeinnUy Claims? TheSeasou's Salmon Pack, Etc.

Portland, Ore., August 4.?Actingunder a law requiring the Secretary ofState to collect, prepare and present allthe accounts of the State againßt theGeneral Government, Secretary of StateMcßride is busily engaged in forwardingto the Interior Department at Washing-ton proofs in support of claims for indem-nityfor expenses incurred by the Statein the Indian wars of 1577-S. The amountof claims is about $44,000, and all obtain-able vouchers and proofs have alreadybeen forwarded to the Department, andthese papers are now being considered bythe auditors.

To-day at Hillsboro, Ore., the three-year-old Fritz Hambleton, while beingdriven on the track, slipped and brokehis leg at the pastern. He was going hismile in 2:40. The animal was valued at$3,000.

Since the 31st alt. salmon packing onthe lower Columbia has entirely ceased.Results were more satisfactory, finan-cially, than for several years. "Twenty-eight canneries ran this year againstthirty-nine last season. It is thoughtthis season's pack will aggregate morethan that of 1887. The total pack so faraggregates 300,820 cases.

named Frank Allen was run over to-dayby a locomotive on the Oregon Railwayand' Navigation Company's line, andkilled. Allen apparently placed himselfon the track on a low trestle, with hisarm and feet between the ties, and breastacross the rail. The wheel cut his chestnearly in twain, killinghim instantly.He had been drinking, and was probablytired of life.

Victoria, B. C, August 4.?Thesteamer Cariboo arrived from Skeenariver this evening with the latest adviceswhich show that the Indian situation isabout the same as before telegraphed.Superintendent Boycraft and a'dozen pro-vincial constables passed seventy milesup the river on their way to Hazelton.The Indians are opposed to the con-stables going up, but so far they hadproceeded without molestation. Theconstables have built two bastions at theHudson Bay port, and keep watch nightand day. The Indians threaten that iftheir chiefs are taken they will kill allthe white people they meet. However,Battery C is to return next trip toCariboo.

Ancient and modern Art.Sir John Millais,in an interesting ar-

ticle in the Magazine of Art, pronouncesagainst blind adoration of the old mas-ters. He says time and varnish are twoof the greatest among the old masters,and that the only way to judge an oldpicture is to ask what was this like whenit was new. He claims for pictorial art asteady evolution upward, though condi-tions and the demands of public tasteare entirely changed. Of modern sculp-ture he says: "So fine is some of thework our modern sculptors havo givenus that Iverily believe that were it dugup from under oyster shells in Borne orout of Athenian sands, with a stamp ofpartial dismemberment about it, allEurope would fall straightway into ec-stasy, and give forth their plaintive wail:"We can do nothing like that now."?

CABLE LETTER.

The Young Kaiser Will VisitEngland.

HIS ITINERARY REVISED.

Rigid Measures Adopted Against theAnarchists?Social and

Political Gossip.

ICopyright, 1888, by New York AssociatedPress. IBerlin, August 4. ?Emperor William's

monarchical itinerary since his interviewwith Prince Bismarck at Fredericksrhue,has been modified in most directions. Itwas supposed that the Emperor, in ac-cordance with family arrangements,would pay his respects to the Queen ofEngland duiing her projected stay atBaden. The Queen, however, intimatedthrough the German Embassy at London,that she did not intend to go to Baden,or any other place on tho Continent.Yesterday a formal note was sent byPrince Bismarck through the Englishembassy asking that the Queen wouldreceive Emperor William, who intendedto visit England. The Emperor will ar-rive in London in November during thewinter session of Parliament. Underpresent circumstances His Majesty'svisit to England will be a State and nota family affair, and the Queen must meethim in London or at Windsor.

Foreign officials believe that PrinceBismarck intends to accompany Emper-or William to England for the purposeof conferring with the Queen on affairsrelating to the late Emperor Frederick.

Nothing is settled regarding the Emperor's proposed interview with KingHumbert. The papal nuncio continuesto urge the Emperor to forego his visit toKing Humbert, unless the meeting takesplace at Milan or Turin.

Communications are passing betweenPrince Bismarck and Signor Crispi, theItalian Prime Minister, on the subject ofthe marriage of the Duke of Aosta withthe daughter of Princo Napoleon. TheFrench monarchists expect that thealliance will divert Italy from Germanyand assist in resuscitating Bonapartism.Signor Crispi is understood to repudiateany responsibility for the match.

ANARCHIST TROUBLES.Continuous arrests have been made

since Thursday mornh'.g of suspectedSocialists in Berlin, Hamburg, Leipsic,Frankfort and every centre. They aresupposed to be associated with an Anar-chist plot in Vienna for a simultaneousattempt to rob the postoffices and banksin Austria and Southern Germany. TheBerlin Police Bureau has avert-ed arresting the leading So-cialists, but under communicationsfrom Vienna, are shadowing AustrianAnarchists. The Imperial Austriandecree signed by the whole Cabinet tosuspend trial by juryin the charges againstAnarchists throughout five provinces,including Prague and Gratz, is to remainin force one year. It empowers theGovernment, without judicial warrant,to arrest, imprison and executenot only Socialists but per-sons sheltering suspects, forbids thesale, possession or manufacturingof arms and ammunition; prohibits pub-lic meetings or tho assembling of crowds;authorizes the police to make domiciliaryvisits and to search newspa; er officesand take summary measures regardingthe editors, and imposes Btringent rulesrespecting passports on the arrival anddeparture of foreigners. Arbitrary asthe decree appears it is forced upon theGovernment by Anarchist conspiracies,like the analogous decree of 1884,when tho American Anarchists sentsome of their associates to try to burnVienna. It is based upon the discoveryof extensive preparations to try to cap-ture the Government offices wheremoney is stored and which are least pro-tected. Austrian Anarchists hold con-stant intercourse with Anarchists inFrance, England, Switzerland and America. Only a small section of the GermanAnarchists are affiliated with them.

POLITICAL FACTIONS.The combination of the government

parties has strongly cemented the Na-tional Liberals and enabled them tounite with the Conservatives. They haveagreed to nominate common candidates,and the Clericals who hoped toisolate theNational Liberals and unite theforces with the Conservatives are nowleft out in the cold. The Nationals areseizing the advantage of an incidentwhich occurred Sunday in an EvangelicalChurch at Solingen, to ridicule the Cleri-cals. Pastor Tummel was lecturingthere on the adoption of the relics of theceremonial which recently occurred atAix La Champelle. He accused theArchbishop of Cologne of blasphemy anda breach of the third amendment. TheBurgomasterof Solingen.whois Catholic,but who was present in the church in hisofficial capacity, rose and ordered thecongregation to disperse. Pastor Thum-mel forbade the congregation to go andconcluded the service amidst intensesuppressed excitement. The pastor de-clared his intention to prosecute theBurgomaster for brawling in a place ofworship. The whole German press dis-cusses the incident rather to the disad-vantage of the clericals.

GENERAL GOSSIP.Dr. Windthorst is better. His party

papers deny tbat his illness is serious,but he is not able to reply to corres-pondence.

King Milan of Servia, with the CrownPrince, arrived at Vienna to-day. Hewires here to say that he willremain atVienna until to-morrow night, when hetakes the Crown Prince to some place inSouthern Bavaria. Tho King goes hunt-ing with the Prince Regent.

The eldest son of the Regent, PrinceRupperecht, has got into trouble throughan amour with the daughter of a wealthycitizen of Munich. He wants to marrythe girls but her friends refuse toallow him to see her unless the Regentassents to a formal betrothal.

A document which appeared in theNouvelle Revue purporting to be a com-munication from Bismarck on the pro-posed marriage of Prince Alexander, ofBattenburg, and Princess Victoria, ofGermany, is justly treated here withcontempt. Its representations are ac-cepted as probably in the true line ofBismarck's policy, but it has not the re-motest analogy to Bismarck's style.

Temple's Fresh Laurels..London, August 4.?Temple, of Chica-

go, won the twenty-mile cycle champion-ship at Leicester to-day, defeating How-ell and Wood. Temple also defeatedjHowell in the five-mile race.

THE FAIR.Senator Hoee to the People of the

Sixth Agricultural District.Editors Hkrald?l wish to appeal

through you to the people who owe it asa duty to the agricultural interest of oursection to aid by their attendance in thesuccess of the fair beginning to-morrow.The Directors have done all in their pow-er, not only to make this the best fairever held here, but also to meet the ob-jections of the conservative classes ofpeople to do away with allpublic gambling, and to maintain thatdecorous order which will make if a fitplace where a man can take his wife andfamily, and every lady will have as muchprotection from profane or vulgar lan-

Suage as if attending any other well-con-ucted place of amusement.This is the aim of the Directors and

they will do all in their power to carry itout. On the other hand they wish theattendance of this conservative elementof society in order to have that moralbacking-up that such attendance gives.

Nor should it be believed that thisFair is simply a matter of pleasure for afew horsemen. It is a matter of deeperconcern for every citizen, especially ofLos Angeles county. We are now allracing in the booming line. Every oneis trying for a fortune in speculation incorner lots, whereas the material inter -ests of agriculture are lost sight of, yetthis Fair and all Fairs have for theirfoundation the engendering of a love forthe growing of fruits, flowers, chickens,pigs, cattle, horses, etc., thus makingincomes from our lands, which in theend make lam's desired and valuable.

To encourage this by your attendance,good people, you willsee when you lookat it, is aiding to bring this about, fornothing will educate the young people toa desire to followagricultural pursuits asto have them appreciated by the many.

There has been a change made thisyear in having all agricultural exhibitsof the products of the farm, the vegetableand fruit garden, at the Fair Grounds, sothat not only the lovers of stock can findentertainment, but also those who areotherwise engaged in agriculture. Thehorse racing will have a placeto itself, and away from theGrand Stand or public generally,and will have to be sought, and not bethrust on the notice of any one. Itshould be remembered that in anylocality where the most enlightenedagriculture prevails, there, too, will befound the most successful fairs, and alsoin the raising of the highest types of thehorse Los Angeles may claim very greatprominence, and public attention is al-ready being drawn this way, and moneyfrom the East is coming this way, and acontinued inquirymade to buy.

Kentucky has made herself rich byevery man, woman and child believing ;horse and talking horse, yet we havemany advantages over every part of ;Kentucky, and this is gradually beingunderstood, and the hope is not a des-perate one to believe that in the nearfuture we will stand out as the "Mecca" jto which all horsemen will pay theiryearly pilgrimage. It only requires !that we believe it ourselves to sho v byour earnest attention that we are awareof these advantages, to make them thedesired locality for breeding establish- Jmerits and thus make our valuable alfalfa 'lands bring an income which will justify !a boom and make an income which will 'justifyour high values.

Thousands of dollars already havecome into this County from other Statesfor horses, and the future is big with ,greatly increased possibilities. It onlyrequires that the people should all show :their appreciation of what we have.Remember these great possibilities are 1all in their infancy only. We will have at 'this Fair some of the finest horses in the ,world. Think of these things and treatyourself kindlyby enjoying one weeks' 'enjoyment. You willnot only get full 'value in pleasure, but you will be doinga duty to your district.

AMUSEMENTS.Walllck's Trained Horses to Appear

at the Urand.This week the Grand Opera House \u25a0

will be a great center of attraction, whenWallick's superb company and histrained horses appear on the boards.

cottox-mott minstrels.The Academy of Music will draw large

crowds this week, where the Cotton-Mottminstrel troupe appear. Ren is the vet-eran negro showman of the world andwill delight his old-time admirers fromall parts of the Union. He is ably sup-ported by a fine company under themanagement of Sam C. Mott.

The Street-SweeperThe street-sweeping machine was put

to work for the first time last night onSpring street at its southern extremity.So far as could be judged last night, itoperated successfully and took up all thedust and dirton the pavement. GeneralBaldwin had a gang of men on Springand Main streets also last night, buttook them off as soon as he learned thatthe street-sweeper was on the ground.

Insane Delusions.Annie Stordorcher, of Pasadena, was

examined before Judge O'Melveney yes-terday and found to be insane. She im-agined that several prominent men ofPasadena and vicinity had evil designsupon her. Judge O'Melveney orderedthat she be confined in Napa until sherecovers from her hallucinations.

A Changed Charge.Sheriff Kays yesterday received word

that Felix Monrey, who was stabbed atSpadra, had died from his wounds.Chiale Grasso, who was charged with as-sault to murder, and who is now at theCounty Jail, will now have to answer tothe charge of murder.

Ramona llohcuiian Club.Ameeting of the Ramona Bohemian

Club will be held in the Herald editori-al rooms this afternoon at 3 o'clock. Asbusiness of great moment will comebefore the meeting, the attendance of allmembers of the Club is earnestly de-sired.

How to Govern Young People.The average college president is but a

poor judge of human nature. It is use-less to try to coerce a large body of youngmen into observance of any set of rules.I found in the course of a few years inthe chair of a college president that inevery school there are a few young menwho are born leaders, and whom therest of the boys follow like sheep do thebellwether. I made it my businessearly in each session to find out whothese leaders were, and then Icaltiv.'itedthem. By placing in their hands re-sponsibility for the good deportment ofthe entire tchool Isecured the best pos-sible discipline, and yet my young friendsnever dreamed that tbey were renderingme any service. From what Ihave seenin seminaries for young ladies the samerule holds good. Grown-up girls can beled a very fine string, but they are mostdifficultto drive.

TALKS ON THE TARIFF.Showing now Contented Protect

tion Makes The Workingman.The whole theory of the Republican

protectionist idea is that it benefitsAmerican labor. The tariff is put on,so as to give your bos 3, the manufactur-er, a larger price for his product, andthen he will ba able, of course, to pay ihigher wages to bis men.

Of course, it must follow that working-men in the "protected" industries areall happy and prosperous, for if the tariffisn't for high wages and the man whoworks, why who in thunder is it for.

Well, let us see about it. Let us seehow much happier or better paid or morecontented the "protected" workingmanis than the great majority of us who arenot blessed with "protection."

According to Bradstreet'* there were884 strikes and lockouts in the UnitedStates last year, in which the total num-ber of strikers or locked-out men were340,854.

Of these, 248,955 or 73 per cent., werein the manufacturing States of Pennsyl-vania, New York, Ohio, New Jersey andMassachusetts. The great protectionistState ofPennsylvania led them all witha total of 111,317 strikers for the year, ornearly 33 per cent, of all in the UnitedStates. New York came next, with02,650 or 18 per cent.

High tariff taxes restrict productionand will lessen work while increasingthe cost of living to the common people.Free wool, for instance, would immense-ly stimulate the manufacture of variousforms of woolen goods, giving work tomany thousands now out of employment.A reduction in the price of clothingwould enable some of us to buy two suitsof clothing where we now buy one, andwould enable all of us to dress betterand more comfortably. This would bethe increased demand for goods whichis an equivalent to an increased demandfor labor.

"But this would spoil the wool-grow-ers' business," some protectionist maysay to you. Don't you believe it. Tobegin with the professional wool-groweris not a very numerous individual and itis pretty certain that there will alwaysbe a good market for his product if ourmanufacturers gat a chance to diversifytheir manufactures by free access to thewool which is not grown here, but whichby admixture with the home wools canbe made up by superior American pro-cesses into American woolens that canthen compete on favorable ground forthe markets of the world.

Why shall the average farmer, whomay be incidentally a wool-grower on asmall scale, worry about free wool?Honest tariffreform may possibly reducethe selling price of the small quantity ofwool he has to sell; but it would makecheaper the coats of himself and sonsand the dresses of his wife and daughters.Itwould cheapen the family blanket andthe carpet on the floor. And tariff re-form in other things would cheapenthe lumber for his house and barn,the iron that shoes h's horse andmakes all his farm tools, the wire fencearound his fields and a hundred otherthings upon which he must pay tributeto the protectionist manufacturer andmonopolist.

Rich and favored monopolists havebeen dictating the tariff legislation ofthis country for two generations. Nowtho people who pay the piper haveawakened and propose tohave somethingto say about it themselves.?[N. Y.News.
