Two's Apparatus for lMsbtingr tbe Entrlne. A few weeks since Confidence Engine was seen running through the streets at a pell-mell gait to a fire, without getting up steam, or even lighting a fire in the engine. The fact caused some comment, and many wondered how they expected to do effective work at the fire. A reporter of the Times questioned a member of the company in reference to the matter, and was referred to Mr. M.

E. Cnrran, the engineer of the company. Mr. Curran was found at the engine-house near the corner of First street on Main, and in explanation showed the reporter an apparatus which has proven very eflective and useful, which enables them to delay tiring up until certain that the alarm is not a false one, if the scene is some distance off, and to get up steam very when once the fire is lighted. The ar rangement is a little iron cup, in the bot tom of which is placed a small quantity of powdered Greek fire.

In a receptacle inside the cup is placed a very small phial containing aoid, and this phial is so arranged that it is easily broken by the pulliHir of a cord attached to the ar rangement for the purpose. This cord extends to the driver's and a simple pull at any time breaks the phial, the acid ignites the Greek fire and the steamer is ablaze. Another advantage in this arrangement is that the fire is lighted in the forward portion of the engine, and as the draft is backward, the fire burns more rapidlv and will make steam quicker thon if lighted in the rear and has to make headway against the draft. Mr. Curran claims he can get up steam three minutes sooner bv this arrangement than by lighting with a torch in the rear, The No.

2 engine is a traveled one. It was built by the Amoskeag Company, went to to San Francisco, where it was on duty for a year then came to Los Angeles, where it has done service for about nine years. It is now first- class condition and has cost the City al most nothing except for fuel, and by tins arrangement they frequently save considerable in not firing up if the alarm proves false, as such false alarm costs in con sumption of fuel about S3. The in vention is one of Chas. Thompson, driver of Jo.

2 engine at Stockton. The only other one of this apparatus in use is by the AO. 2 company of ban rancisco. IuvitKtion to a Xecklie Party. Justice Ling was frightened almost out of his wits yesterday, by the receipt of letter with deep black mourning border about it.

His thoughts ran to his old home folk and all his dearest friends: while he with trembling hand broke the seal. His apprehension was soon allayed by reading the contents, which were print ed on corresponding mourning paper and proved to be an invitation to a necktie partv. It read as follows: Sheriff's Officii, Ventura county. "San March 26, 1883 To Judge It. A.

Edward Driggs is doing the work, under the supervision of the City Surveyor. A beginning was made on Main street, at First, going north. First street is to be the dividing line, and the houses will be numbered beginning with one on either side of that street, and those either north or south" will be so designated. For instance, the Grange Store, -which has heretofore been No. 133, is now No.

23 North Main street, and any number below First will be deisignated" with No. South Main, or whatever street it may happen to be. It will be a wonderful convenience to business men, and more especially strangers. The new system makes a revolution in the numbers which have heretofore been in use. It is proper to state that any one has a right to put up his own number or have any one he may choose put it up for him, if it shall be of the regulation size, after the number has been officially designated by Mr.

Driggs. A Palatial Store. "Nothing better illustrates the rapid growth of our section thau the Immense Importations of furniture, carpets, by the ole-sale and retail house of Dotter Bradley. A hopeful Los A.ng eleno, whqn he wishes to feel particularly encouraged and imagine himself in a large city, just takes a look through their place of business at Nos. 31 and 33 Main street.

Every time the visitor goes there he finds new surprises. They are the very first to secure the latest thing out in their line. Yesterday some very novel and stylish goods in the carpet line "might have been seen" in fact, were seen in their store. Their stock in this branch is certainly most complete, and cannot fail to please everyone. Th-y are not a whit behind, moreover, in the very latest designs in bedroom sets and parlor goods, and show equal enterprise in their elegant displav of inos carefully selected deporations and fancy hal papers.

Whoever calls at their store will bel well repaid. Runaway. Mr. T. E.

mhSl-tf Over First National Bank. Castaeres Amir "The People's Lawyer" and My Wife." The Orphans' Home entertainment at Tnrnverein Hall was rather unfortunate last night, in having bad weather for the first of its performances, and as a neural consequence there were many vacant chairs. The entertainment consisted of two plays, the comedy of The People's Lawyer and the screaming farce, My Neighbor's Wife. The former play was not all one could wish for it, but had its strong points. Tom iiarnes as Kobert Howard and Mr.

Whitney as Solon Shingle had the best of it. Follow ing is the cast of characters: Robert Howard (the People's Lawyer) Mr. Tom Barnes. Winslow (a wealthy Merchant Mr. Otis Solon Shingle (a Yankee Farmer) Mr.

VV. Whitney) whose wives were respectively, Miss Lilian Fellows and Miss Minnie Stovell, and Mr. J) red per formed the part of Mr. Summerton. Mr.

Barnes and Mr. Whitnev treated the audience to some very good side acting and the whole was enjoyable. The entertainment will be repeated this evening, and let all remember that the object is to provide for the little orphans which the ladies have collected into the Home and are attempting to pro vide for. Those holding tickets for last night will be admitted to-night without reserved seats, or if they choose to reserve them they can do so at 25 cents extra. Miss Agnes McLaiu will give a recitation to-night between the acts.

Let our people show their appreciation of the work and object of the Indies of the Home by turning out to-night, remembering that it is for sweet eharitv's sake. A Bad Spell offence Advertising. Some of our merchants who advertise on fences, bridges, tumble-down build, ings, would be amused, and perhaps a little disgusted, with this method of making their goods known were they aware of the ludicrous orthographical blunders frequently made by tbe intelligent sign-painters. The writer, while traveling through the country, has seen numerous signs of this description one, for instance, calling attention to the "Fine Hatts, Caps', Boots and Shooes" kept by one of our leading furnishing establishments; another that "Pure Drugges, Medisines and tolet" articles are for sale at a well-known Main street pharmacy; and still another, perhaps a little wprse than the average, gravely informs passers-by that "The Hiest Price is Paid for Kuntry Produce at the Street Orthographical blunders like the above are to be seen on nearly every fence in the city and country, and while adapted to the class of business houses be found at the Confederate Koads of Nasby fame, do not reflect much credit on the progressive merchants and tradesmen of this citv. A Finfl lu San Antooio Canyon.

Mr. L. Garrisius, of Pomona, and two associates have been prospecting for pre cious metals and substances in the Canyon of San Antonio. They have taken out a quantity of deposits, which, without as say, they believe to embrace aluminum, plumbago, quicksilver and silver-bearing rock. The deposits are abundant, and of the genuineness of the quicksilver and plumbago there appears to be little doubt, judging from the specimens exhibited.

Assays are to be made, and if the result justines, the work of development will be commenced bv Messrs. tiarrigus, Juicti- ards and Collins. C'OSDEXSED TELKUUAMS.

Court Htree Is ne Idte Site Be-lected. Another and an entirely new theater project wa made public yesterday, and it only lacks the co-operation of our citizens and the encouragement which subscribing for a portion of the stock will give to make it an assured fact. The location is one of the very best that the city affords, and it will be a most fortunate thing if the scheme completion, and W.

S. shall be carried to Messrs. W. S. Moore Maxwell are the gen tlemen who propose to erect the building, which will le on the site of the Eagle Corps Armory, oj Court street.

They had in contemplation tba erection of a building there, but it was only a short time since that they concluded to make a theater of it. Colonel Gray, the gentleman who built the San Bernardino and several other theaters in this State, with Messrs. Kysor Morgan, architects, have prepared plans which will give a nana-some theater, with all the modern conveniences and best arrangement. The building will be C0xl45feet, three stories in height, and will cost probably $25,000, and the furnishing, according to Col. Gray's estimate, will be from $15,000 to $20,000, and is calculated, with parquet, dress-circle and galleries, to seat 1200 persons.

The main entrance on Court street will be fifteen feet in width, with two gallery entrances each six feet wide. Exits in case of emergency will be provided by means of iron bridges over the top of Cen tral block. The theater is planned after the Bijou theater of Boston, one of the cosiest in the country. Messrs. Moore and Maxwell propose to erect the building and then form a stock company with 300 shares, at a par value of $100 per share, to whom they will rent it at a monthly rental of $150 per month, the company to furnish the institution and then sublet or manage it themselves as thov may elect, they agreeing to pur chase the furnishings at the end of the leane at two-thirds of their appraised value.

Colonel Gray has interested himself in the project, and will take some stock ar.d will also place some of it in San Francisco. The Colonel is now in San Bernardino, but will go to San Francisco on Tuesday to carry out this plan, and will also probably find a lessee who will pay a good round figure for the theater. Mr. Moore hopes to have the house open for business bv August 1st, when California will be overrun with Eastern people, brought hither by the conclave of Knights Templar at San Fran cisco. our people encourage this en terprise aud remove the stigma which rests upon us.

P0ST0FFICE BUSINESS. Quarterly Report, of the I.om Angeles Office A IJise Miowiiisr- Another quarterly statement of the bus iness of the Angeles postomce was completed by Postmaster Dunkelberger yesterday, which shows that the boom is increasing in force with each succeeding report. His receipts for the quarter end ing March 30, 1883, are as follows: From box rent 1328 40 stamps 9:08 17 Totrtl $10,63 57 The total expense of the office was leaving a net profit to the Government of SS447.27. The net last vear was 14, and the year before, S5595.97, which shows a healthy increase. One of the very best illustrations of the growth of the city is found in a comparison of the figures of the office year by year, and as this is recognized as a fact, special atten tion is called to the figures for the nine mouths of the fiscal year past and the whole of the year preceding, in which the nine months of the present year exceed those of the entire previous year by $1,409.59.

The figures are: Total net receipts for fiscal year 1881-2, up to June 30th, For niue months ending March 30, .1883, S21.098.C3, and three months yet to hear from. About the 1st of Januar3' a brother of Third Assistant Postmaster-General Elmer was in this city, and seeing the condition and business of the office, telegraphed the Department at Washington that certain recommendations which he made were a necessity. Among them was an appropriation for an additional clerk. A telegram was received stating that this latter recommendation would be carried out, and on the strength of that telegram an additional clerk was put in the general delivery department. Yesterday a communication was received by the Postmaster stating that he would have to get along as best he could without the appropriation as there was no money in the treasury with which to pay the additional clprk, although so badly needed, and consequently th'e extra clerk put on will be dis charged immediately, and then will go up a howl from this dear people.

It seems rather strange that when this office is paving into the treasury of the Govern ment the sum of $8447.27 yearly over and above all expenses, that it cannot have a clerical force sufficient to meet the actual and extremely urgent demands upon it, when the paltry sum of $60 or $70 a month is the only consideration. wee ne In a Street Car. To the Editor of the, Times Sin: If the elegant Superintendent of the Main Street Horse Railway will for once draw his head some three degrees toward the front, on the perpendicular line of his body, and thereby bring his vision on a level with material things here below, he will find that his cars are in a most dilapidated and nasty condition, whilst the management is terribly demoralized. On entering ono of these cars the other day I encountered two rascally-looking Mongolians, with their greaay hampers of chow-chow, occupying about four seats, and smoking villainous opium-tinctured cigars, and sending off a cloud of smoke that literally filled the car. Directly the driver slowed down, and in jumped a representative Young America, who never refuses a challenge at any game, aud taking in the situation, accepted the gage, drew out his three-cent long nine, and familiarly taking the cigar from the mouth of one of the Chinamen, lit his own and throwing himself on his seat, sent forth a volume of smoke that rendered his victory no ways doubtful.

At this moment a passenger drew the attention of Jehn to the trio, and received a gruff "Veil, vat of it? I can stop em for his pains. Looking round I found that the notice "Xo smoking in the cars" had given place to the card of a quack medicine man. I was under the impression that when this company obtained its charter, mutual obligaions were entered into, one of which was the comfort and convenience of the public. One of the People. Santa Ana Items.

Herald, March 24th .1 The rainfall for the week up to 4 p. March 29th, was 1.06 inches. We saw two monster pigs on the street Wednesday. They were raised by tieorge Barr, and were purchased by A. P.

Ruffle for shipment to San Francisco. Their weight was 1156 pounds. It is a rare thing to see such big hogs, even in this valley, which raises some of the largest in the State. The Sacramento commission house which purchased the fruit of a number of orange orchards in this valley, are loading cars for shipment to Eastern points. It is likely at least two car-loads will be shipped in the first lot, and will be started East as soon as tney can De loaaea.

Boring experiments iiave demonstrated the fact that a vast body of water exists in the bed of the Santa Ana river, and a competent engineer is now making plans and estimates of the cost of bringing this subterranean water to tbe surface. The work, no doubt, will be one of considera ble magnitude, and its final completion may be a matter of time, but its benefits cannot be overestimated. We must come to the conclusion that this is, compara tively, a rainless country; that there is little dependence upon a rainy season, and that we must fully develop the God- uiven streams which have been placed within our reach, a compensation, as it were, for the absence of regular wet seasons, and rendering us in a manner independent of them. Notwithstanding teports to the contra- ry, we learn from Newport farmers that that section will turn off a good crop of corn the coming season. It was calculated by those competent to judge that the orchardists of the Santa Ana valley received about $40,000 for their fruit last season, 'ihese figures show how astonishing has been the growth of orange culture in our valley, and thousands of trees will come into bearing in a short time.

We can raise better oranges than the Florida product, and our soil will produce the finest grapes, making raisins equal to it not superior to the Malagas, and wine of body and flavor, with age, that cannot be excelled, and which is free from adulteration. Our valley produces as large, fine apples as can be seen in any country, apricots, peaches, pears, prunes, figs, and other fruits in perfection. The English walnut does well here, yielding profitable crops upon reaching the proper age. With our climatic advantages and unequaled soil productions it would be strange indeed if lands in this valley did not ap predate wonderfully. it KOTICE.

Mr. T. E. Martin having purchased material for his new hotel, stores and livery, will push them on the double-miick. They are a much-needed improvement to Pasadena With the new improvements which Mr.

Beaudry has made and is making in his reservoir and Alameda-street water works, the supply of water is likely to be ample on the hills this summer. The contract for painting the roof of the Xadeau Block has been awarded to Mr. S. H. Slaught, the agent for the electro-car bon rdof paint.

This paint not only pre serves the roofing from rust. and decay. but also is a very material protection from lire. A gigantic wildcat, safely caged, is one of the attractions which a hardware firm Pasadena keeps for the diversion of customers. The animal was captured in the mountains back of the settlement.

The police records showed yesterday only the arrest of David and a mule, David was drunk, but the mule did not make-such an ass of himself as did David. "A Newcomer" writes to the Times: 'T see that property on Spring street, above the Xadeau Hotel, sold for $300 per front foot, and vet there is not a sign of a side walk for pedestrians. It seems to me that yonr citv authorities are derelict in duty." The sky cleared up last evening at this point, but it is quite probable that other showers will follow before the weather is settled. PERSONAL MENTION. Mr.

E. If. Sweetser came in from Calico yesterday. Mr. Charles 15.

Patterson, who was con valescing from a sevoro attack of pneumo nia, is now confined to his bed with dysen tery. STRANGER THAN FICTiON. A Brother aikI Sinter Live in I.oh Aiivele Tliree Vrars Iiikiivwn to Kncli Other. Mr. Wui.

Leverich, the driver of the Thirty-eights engine, yesterday made the most singular discovery that he had been living in the same town with his sister for three years past, but all the time unbeknown to him, and the accidental occurrence of his name in a newspaper was the means of his making the discovery. Leverich left home about thirteen years ago, and like so many other young men in obeying Horace Greeley's precept, to go West, ho drifted west and finally to California. He became careless in his correspondence and for several years his folks did not know where he was. During this time histuster married a gentleman named J. S.

Hunt, and three years ago they came to Los Angeles. As Mrs. Hunt did not know of lier brother's whereabouts, and he did not know she was married or in California, they did not meet until yesterday, when Mrs. Hunt accidentally saw her brother's name in the Herald. Mrs.

Hunt, it may be of interest to say, is well fixed as regards the things of this life, her husband being wealthy. They reside corner of Seventh and Charity streets. Mr. Leverich's family live in Gentry county, Missouri. More Itaiu.

The low barometer of Thursday night and indicated that the storm was not yet over, although the day was fair. Toward night the clouds thickened up and about 7 o'clock they dropped their fatness upon field, garden and plain hereabouts. Twenty-five hundredths of an inch fell, bringing the total of the storm up to 2.84 in this city. At San Gabriel the fall has been much heavier, and before last night's shower was in the neighborhood of four inches. On the other hand, Compton," ten miles in an opposite direction, has had not to exceed an inch, and some put the fall as low as three-quarters of an inch.

The fall in the southwest portion of the county has also been much lighter than here or other portions of the county. The low barometer has continued at Visalia, and at every observation rain has been reported. San Diego has fared very badly, and has had but a very meagre fall. Mr. Collins, the Observer, kindly furnished us the readings for these two points, last evening, which are as follows: Visalia, barometer 29.88.

Wind HE. Weather cloudy. Rainfall past 8 hours .57. San Diego, barometer 29.98. Wind west.

Weather clear; no rain to-day. Florence. Mr. Joseph Durrell, one of the leading farmers of Florence, informed a Times reporter yesterday that grain crops in his section, so far as rain is concerned, are assured beyond the possibility of failure, and that trees and vines are doing well. The settlement is healthy, with the ex ception of a slight epidemic of whooping couirh among the children.

Few sales of property have lately been made, and there is but little first-class property offered for sale, owners of land feeling well satisfied with prices of produce, tne prospect of good crops this year, and being in no hurry to abandon their homes. Florence has a flourishing literary society, which is well attended, holding weekly meetings at the schoolhouse. Police Court. In the case of B. Blake yesterday, the defendant moved for a new trial, which was denied.

The defendant moved for ar rest of judgment, and three days were al lowed in which to file brief. John Mayer was tried for beating a Chinaman. It was a wanton act, done out of pure cussedness. He will be sentenced this morning. lienl Ette Male iu Orange.

Other denom inations are preparing to build, and shortly Pomona will be provided with respectable church buildings. Caved in Again.
