Beebe, | leading churchman, prominent | citizen and self-confessed bur- glar, is now on his way to San Quentin Prison, and the property- owners of Corona are rejoicing that his two vears' carcer of petiy thievery has been brought to a close. Beebe was ar- igned before Superior Judge Noyes at Riverside vesterday and entered a plea of gullty to the charge of burglary preferred against him by Charles W. Main of Co- rona. The prisoner meckly appealed to the mercy of the court, but Judge Noyes sentenced him to five years' imprison- ment in San Quentin. To-day Sherift Co- burn started northward with Beebe to place him behind the walls of Warden | Aguirre’s hostelr; The arrest and conviction of Beebe are still the sensation of the hour in Corona Since he came to the town ¥y, was regarded as an honest, up- | right citizen.

Special Dispatch to The Call. REDWOOD CITY, Oct. 10.—Greater rrogress was made in the Mitchell mur- der case to-day than was expected. Be- | fore noon a jury had been sworn in and the taking of testimony commenced Willlam Mitchell, the prosecuting wit- ness, occupied a seat within the railing during the entire proceedings, and fre- quently conferred with the prosecuting attorneys. It is noticeable that the old man has failed physically within the last few months, owing, as he states, to his being constantly on guard to prolect his life. Mitchell has not been placed on the witness stand as yet, but the prosecution announced this afternoon that it probably would close its case by to-morrow noon, as it had only two more witnesses to ex- amine—Dr. Ross and Willlam Mitchell. When Mitchell testifies he will positively identify Ehlers as the man who Kkilled visited the Mitchell and sand premises on the morning of July 5 in company with the Coroner’s jury and Sheriff Mansfield. He found the bodies of beth and David Mitchell lying besice the hog pen in_ the Mitchell yard. Both were fully clothed. That of David was on its back and the body of Elizabeth | lay downward. The latter was cov- | ered th a canvas and some old hay. | There was a bullet wound in the region of the heart. In company with the Sher- , Fox went to the Imsand premises. Entering the kitchen he searched the stove and found in the ashes a discharged -40 caliber Winchester cartridge. The | Sheriff picked up a sjmilar one from the floor. He returned to the Mitchell place and assisted Dr. Ross in making a post mortem examination. In the hog pen the witness found a bul- {let hole having its entrance on the side toward the Imsand house and {ts exit on | the Mitchell place. The bullet had pro- ceeded from the direction of the kitchen window of the Imsand house. He found another bullet hole near by, and concluded it had come from a small window near the kitchen door of the same place. | _Thomas O'Malley and John Roper testi- fled that they saw William Mitchell on the night of July 4, about 9:30 o'clock, | and that he had a rifie with him at the | ime. | Sheriff J. H. Mansfield testified that on |. | the 7th or 9th of July he had made an ex- amination of an outhouse back of the Imsand dwelling and found two 32-40 Win- chestcr rifles rolled up in sacks and hid- den away. He had a conversation with William Mitchell regarding the murders, Mitchell told him the men who did the shooting were in the kitchen window of the Imsand house, and had a rifle resting on the window sill. He saw two men standing there, describing Lemoscher as “the man with bushy whiskers” Ehlers as the man who lived In a hous close by, pointing it out. Mitchell sald eight or ten shots were fired from the same direction. An effort was made by the defense to get before the jury detalls of former dif- cuities between Mitchell and Imsand, when twenty or thirty shots were fired by the men at one another, but this was objected to. GREAT UNITED VERDE COPPER MINE DAMAGED | Railroad and Shops Lowered Ten Feet by a Sinking of the Earth. JEROME, Ariz, Oct. 10.—Miners em- ployed on the 500-foot level of the Great | United Verde copper mine noticed the ground giving way over their heads at | 1 o'clock this morning.

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 0.—The largest meet- ing thus far held in San Diego during this campaign was addressed to-night by Gov- ernor Gage, whose carefully prepared ar- gument on the Republican side of the questions of imperfalism and militarism, which the speaker characterized as hol- low sounds, was frequently interrupted by applause. The Governor arrived on the noon. train, having been met at Oceanside by mem- | bers of the reception committee, which | had carefully planned for his coming and for the meeting to-night. Hundreds of of both parties were gathered at N-street depot when the train ar- | rived and the chief executive of the State | was warmly welcomed to the southern- | most city of the commonwealth of which | | he is the Governor. In a parade he was escorted from the depot to the Hotel Brewster by citizens on foot and in car- riages. At the hotel the reception com- mittee had arranged luncheon, at which a number of the Republican party leaders sat down with the speaker. A reception followed, during which the corridor of the hotel was filled with visitors of all tles. Later in the afternoon Mr. was gaken on a drive about the city, re turning to the hotel in time to prepare for the meeting this evening. Fireworks and a band concert preceded the opera-house meeting and when Sena- | tor A. E. Nutt was introduced as chair- | man the house was crowded. Mr. Gage spoke from manuseript, expiaining that | he had prepared his argument as he would repare to speak to a jury whose minds | - desired to convince, Only once or twice did he permit himself to turn aside from the manuscript, and then only to answer some criticisms of the particular portion of the speech which he was then reading. He spoke on reciprocity and in an hour and a half completed the best and most argumentative address which has been heard here during this or any recent cam- algn. p’l“?zlp Governor will leave to-morrow for Riverside, where he will speak on Friday night.

SAN JOSE, Oct. 10.—At the Agricultural Fair to-day an immense crowd witnessed the bull fight, which was really a tame af- fair, as precautions had been taken to prevent accidents in deference to the at- titude of the Humane Society. The ani- mals were fierce looking, but not danger- ous, and it was easy for the matadors to keep out of their way.

SE-T0 DISBAND THEIR PARLIANENT Southern California Women Vote Down a Proposal to Merge With the State Fed- eration. Special Dispatch to The Call. LOS ANGELES, O 10.—The popular- ity of the Scuthern California Women's Parliament was attested at the session this morning, when a motion to disband the organization was made. Ever since the parliament convened yesterddy morn- Ing rumors had been afioat that some of the members were in favor of disbanding and merging the movement into that of the ate Federation. There was much suppressed excitement throughout the session of yesterday, and a large number of the women who believe that the par- lament should be an organization distinct from the federation were prepared to work earnestly to that end. Mrs. Kate Tupper Galpin morning and moved that the parliament should adjourn sine die, there being an animated discussion. It did not take long to prove that the motion was very unpop- ular. It met overwhelming defeat. A matter which has come before the TR Women's Parliament is that of the King's Daughters' Day Nursery of Los Angeles, and 2lthough there were other interesting subjects for discussion there was none that received more favorable considera- tion. The day nursery is a local charita- ble institution, which for years has been struggling to accomplish a class of phi- lanthropic ‘work that is not touched by the more pretentious charities, and it has | received the commendation of many who believe that to save the child from the temptations of the street is_to make citizens of those who would otherwise be exposed to the forces that develop crim- | inal lives. | _Mrs. Mary Porter Haynes of Prospect | Park read a paper beginning with a_gen- eral outline of such work as carried out in the various large cities of the world. Coming to the local necessities, she told of the recent gift of property which would enable the managers later to own a nur- sery of their own, and urged that steps be taken looking to the establishment of a children’s Lospita! in Los Angeles. | PLANNING MISSION WORK.

VANCOUVER, Oct. 10.—The steamer Monte Cristo, the largest river steamer on the Stickine, was wrecked last Thurs- day 200 miles from the mouth of the river. She was coming down from Hazleton with fifty passengers—miners from the Omineca country, employed by the S. A. Single- hurst Company of New York—and struck a rock in midstream. The weather had been warm and the overflowing mountain streams had swollen the river.

This is one knot more than was | required of the Oregon, which, however, made a spurt during the trial, reaching | seventeen and fifteen-hundredths knots. | It is expected that the Wisconsin will do | nearly as well, though she is 1000 toms | heavier and no premium is offered for e cess speed as in the case of the Oregon.

SAN RAFAEL, Oct. 10.—Ah Kim, a member of the Point San Pedrg shrimp fishing colony, has disappeared. Several of the Chinese there say he was drowned | in the bay during a heavy squall and that he was struck on the back before he went overboard. How or with what he injured they profess not to ¢ dollars has been offered for tl recovery of his body. Local officials b lleve Ah Kim was murdered and that his fellow-countrymen are endeavoring to prevent the facts coming to light. Deputy Constable John Smith is of the opinion that if the body is recovered a mortal wound_ will be found in the back. The w Celestials are taking time by the | forelock by declaring Kim was injured | before the capsizing of his craft. so they will be in a better position should the body be found. | There has always been s:rife between | the factions at the shrimp camps. They adjust their own differences and officers of the law are never called upon to inter- fere in their quarrels. They maintain a small Chipa of their own—government, courts and all. A Chinese with the body of a man in his small boat came to the wharf at San Quentin this afternoon. George Guldager, | an employe of the North Pacific Coast Railroad, notified Coroner Eden, who left for the point to take charge of the re- mains. When he arrived the Chinese had | disappearkd. From what the men saw | of the body it appeared to be that of a white man and had been in the water some time. However, it is probable that | the body is that of Ah Kim, and that it has been taken to Point San Pedro, where it will be buried as secretly as possible. — - LOS ANGELES, Oet. 10.—The C.
