Editor Sands and ‘anager Tebbets of the Daily News Arrested. SANTA BARBARA, CAL, Oct. 20.— Frank Sands, editor, and George P. Teb- bets, business manager of the Daily News, SANTA BARBAR LADY SHOLTO DOUGLAS IN RED RIDING HOOD COSTUME, [Beproduced from her latest photograph.] ship carried out her part without inter- | ruption, and was the recipient at times of | | tumultuous applause. The little actress made a very pretty picture in her simple red dress and hood in which she appeared in the song, ““Little Red Riding Hood,”” and which she naively | remarked was made by herself in one day. | “So you wish to know the real reason | why I returned to the stage?”’ queried she of a CavLn correspondent. *“Well, I'll tell you. It was not money—Lord Douglas has provided all that T can conveniently use—but a desire to make a name for my- | self. I believe I can do it with the Fraw- | ley company. Mr. Frawley has been as g00d as gold to me, and there seems to be | no wearing his patience out. He saysT | have talent, and he ought to know. “Look here,” and from a diminutive shelf she took down a handful of letters. “See these? Well, they're from all over— offers from New York, Chicago, Pittsburg, Cincinnati, St. Louis, and here's a tele- gram from Boston—all offering me better salaries than I am now getting. Why don’t I accept them? Because they’re vaudeville, and I have an ambition to shine in the legitimate. I am to have a speaking part soon. After we leave here we go to Oakland, thence to Puget Sound, Portland, Seattle, Tacoma, Butte, Spokane and after that back to San Francisco. I | want a good part when I play there, and | know I'll have it if I fulfill Mr. Frawley’s | expectations. “Then, just think of it—we go East, to New York—oh!” And with her race lighted | up with expectation of an appearance before the New York footlights the little lady tripped off to charm her audience with “Little Red Riding Hood,” in which she has made a decided hit. - Swues a Railroad Company.

More Easterners Investing in the Sand Dunes of Concord. BAKERSFIELD, CArL, Oct. 29.—A few months ago the Concord townsite swindle was exposed in all the local as well as the metropolitan papers throughout the coun- try, but somehow the promoters of the fraud will not down; neither have all the dnpes died. A letter was received here to- day from a man in Chicago, who is about to close a deal for exchanging valuable property in that city for lots in Concord. Concord is in the center of an alkali desert eastof the Mojave, and is not worth 10 cents a square mil gl Cloverdale Wool Sales. CLOVERDALE, CarL., Oct. 29. — The wool sale to-day passed off very success- fully and the town presents an unusuaily lively appearance to-night because of the many wool-growers present. Nearly 700 were arrested this afternoon on a com- plaint sworn out by William Lavies, pro- prietor of the Independent, charging them with criminal libel. Lavies’ charges are based on an article appearing in the News of October 22, charging that Lavies col- luded with the Morning Press of this city to loot the county and city treasuries by making exorbitant newspaper printing rates. The News in this article stated that it was believed that Lavies and the Press had stolen $2000 from the connty. POSO VALLEY COLONSTS, Eastern Capitalists Providing Homes for Hundreds of Settlers. A Vast Tract of Arid Soil to Be Reclaimed by Means of Irrigation. BAKERSFIELD, CaL., Oct. 29.—Con- siderable wonder has been expressed by many at the large investment made by Eastern capitalists in the bonds of the Poso irrigation district, and much curios- ity as to how they expected to realize any- | thing, in view of the fact that the region covered is but sparsely populated, and if leit to natural growth could scarcely hope to have any large number of people for years. Itappears, however, thatthe gentle- men have been alive to the fact that colo- nization and irrigation must go hand in hand, and have not been idle in seeking the means by which the district could be made a success. v Negotiations have been in progress for some time, and now it is definitely stated by the local agent of the capitalists that arrangements have been made by which a large colony of Danes will settle there within the next twelve months. The number already secured as probable set- tlers is put st 3500. The intending col- onists are practical farmers, and none have been sllowed to join who have not the means necessary to make a proper ‘‘start’ in a new country. 1t is expected that work on the canals will be completed some time next month, and water will then be put upon the land, making it ready for the settlers, who will come in time to put in crops for the coming season. Sralign o Heavy Catch of Halibut, SEATTLE, Wasg, Oct. 20.—The Yukon, a fishing schooner, after a four montns’ voyage, came in from the north to-day, with a catch of 25,000 pounds of fletched halibut and 20,000 pounds of fresh fish, taken around Dixons Entrance and Prince of Wales Island.

Felton's Death in Round . Valley Was Without Cause. WHITE'S HAND IS SEEN. The Victim Held Mortgages to Land Wanted by the “King.” LYNCHERS TO BE ARRESTED. Officers Determined to Bring the Slayers of Littlefield to Justice. UKTIAH, CaL., Oct. 2¢.—Sheriff Johnson and Coroner Barker returned from Round Valley this evening and report everything quiet in the Mad River country. Ves Palmer has returned to his homein Covelo. Henry Carder, who was arrested for the murder of Charles Felton near Covelo a week ago, was released from custody, as it was not believed that he had killed Felton. The authorities are entirely at sea as to the perpetrator of the crime, and there is no clew to his identity. They have, how- ever, succeeded in establishing a motive which may eventually lead to the discov- ery of the murderer. Felton at the time he was killed was engaged to marry Mrs. Annie J. Tanney, on whose ranch and stock he held a mort- gage. Mrs. Tanney had expressed the intention of fencing her ranch, which com- prises about 1000 acres, and lies adjacent to “King” George E. White's winter range, and on which White’s stock has been grazing many years. White, it is claimed, had hinted to several parties that Mrs. Tanney was in his way. Felton’s death means that his estate would be adminis- tered by a public administrator, and the mortgage upon Mrs. Tanney’s ranch fore- closed and she put off the place. At the inquest held before Justice Atkin- son over the body of *Jack’” Littlefield Constable Van Horn, the officer who had charge of Littlefield at the time of the Iynching, testified as follows: “I had arrested Mr. Littlefield in the southern part of Trinity County on the trail that goes from Red Mountain to Round Valley, Mendocino County, and started with him for Weaverville. We were going down the mountain toward Red Mountain place, when suddenly some one in the bushes by the side of the trail com- manded us to halt, saying: ‘Hold on there; we will take that man in charge.” I looked to the left, from which direction the command came, and saw a man raise and level his rifle at us (at the instant I didn’t know which one), and at the same time I saw Littlefield jump from his horse. “I started to pull my pistol, but didn’t get 1t out, and Littlefield hadn’t taken more than one or two steps until the rifle was fired, and I saw Littlefield throw up his hands to his breast as though he was shot. At the same time they said: ‘You fellows go on there—go!” and commenced a regular fusillade of shots. ‘“As [ started I saw the dark outlines of men moving in the bushes, and could see the smoke of rifies of men farther back in the brush. T looked to the right and saw Jack fall by the side of a big pine tree. He ran about thirty feet from where he was shot before he fell. The mob had masks onand I couldn’t recognize, identify, tell how many there were or how many shots were fired. “There was a large number of them. The brush was full of them, and they kept shooting until we had ridden, I think, about 150 yards. This all occurred as near as I can tell between 7:30 and 8 o’clock P. M. on the 27th day of September, 1895, Johnny Crow was with me as deputy con- stable, and helped me arrest Littlefield, and was along when it all took place, he riding behind ‘Jack’ and I ahead.” This statement made by Van Horn is known to be untrue. There were but five persons present at the time the crime was committed, and but three shots were fired, any of which would have proved fatal. Sheriff Bergin of Trinity, who, with Sheriff Johnson of this county, has been investigating the lynching of Littlefield, returned to his home in Weaverville. He has determined to arrest eight pere sons whom he has good reason to believe were implicated in the crime. Trinity County officers refuse to reveal the result of the inquest until the parties to whom they attribute the lynching of Littlefield are under arrest. The Republican of this city has been threatened by a boycott by some of the residents of Round Valley because it re- fuses to champion the White side of the controversy. That journal has insisted that the late crime was due to the feud be- tween the White and anti-White factions and held White responsible for many mur- ders committed in that section of the country. SANTA ANA ORDINANCE FOID. Restrictions Upon Liquor-Selling De- clared to Be Unconstitutional. SANTA ANA, Carn, Oct, 29.—Judge Towner of the Superior Court has declared thau section 5, covering the principal re- strictions of the saloon ordinance of this city, is unconstitutional and void, and discharged C. Miller, arrested for violation of its provisions, from custody on a writ of habeas corpus. The ordinance com- pelled the removal of card and billiard tables, chairs, benches and screens, and allowed no side or rear entrances. The Judge ruled it unreasonable—not so much the intent of the measure as its faulty con- struction. e RANCHO REOBLAR MORTGAGE. Oakland and Los Angeles Parties Pur- chase a Mythical Interest. SANTA ROSA, CAr., Oct. 29.—A package was received at the office of County Re- corder Atchison to-day from Los Angeles, containing the assignment of a mortgage given on an undivided interest in an un- divided one-third of an_undivided one- sixteenth of the Rancho Roblar to secure the payment of anote for §4000.

FENCE IN YOUR HEALTH. Put Up the Bars and Laugh at Weakness and Disease.
