From 1859 to 1591 he was President pro tem. of the Senate and in that high sta- tion displayed the utmost courtesy, im- partiality and dignity and proved himself to be a_thorough master of parliamentary law and procedure. After his retirement from the Senate in 1891 Mr. Ingalls devoted himself to farm- ing, journalism and literature, articles from his pen being frequently seen in the daily press, as well as In the high-class magazines.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 16.—The end of the disgraceful Slovinski case has been reached and it is probable that the Bst of the unsavory business has been heard of in Los Angeles. Mrs. Slovinski, with her child, has left prosecution has been dismissed, the civil suit will be and the only thing remaining will be the proceedings in the probate case growing out of the $1500 cash bail de- posited In Justice Austin’s court, and as the special administrator is one of the Slovinski lawyers it anything will ever become public as to the final disposition of that fund. The two notes for $15,000 alleged to have been signed by Maines at the point of a pistol have been destroyed; in fact were destroyed before the criminal prosecution was dismissed and that really settled the whole matter. At the meeting between Variel, Mes- erve, Malnes and Moss Monday the notes were burned in the presence of all parties. Later the criminal prosecution was d missed, it being understood that the civil suit would also be dismissed. It was agreed among all the parties that what took place at this meeting should be con- fidential and should never be disclosed un- der any circumstances. But, as in all cases of this kind, everything has come out, although it has been somewhat de- layed. It may safely be assumed that Mrs. Slovinski will never again be seen in Los Angeles.

COVELO, Aug. 16.—J. E. King, wanted for the murder of S. H. Church in Marin County last month, is still a fugitive from Justice. For weeks Sheriff's posses have followed his trail over a mountainous country and through almost inaccessible passes, but he has shrewdly eluded his pursuers. Worn out men have ridden tired horses into surrounding towns and others have taken their places in the man-hunt, but apparently to no purpose. Posters have been printed and freely distributed throughout the State giving a full description of King. A reward of $300 for his capture ig offered by the Governor and his family adds $200 more to this sum. He is described as follows: Age 4), weight about 140 pounds, height 5_feet 8 inches, complexion fair, high cheek bones, drawn, thin face; light col- ored eyes; sandy mustache, may be shaven now; had a scar on one cheek, having the appearance of being caused by a burn in childhood—not very noticeable; wore dark colored suit of clothes, white shirt and black derby hat; may have changed clothes; wore nearly new palr pointed-toe ga%es; walks with lmp, as if knee was On July 23, 1900, King shot and killed S.
