Ochs. an employve of the Indianapolis Furniture Company on Mission street, was secured yesterday to serve as a juror in the case. He makes the eleventh man on the panel and it is thought that the twelfth juror will be secured this morning. During the morning session attach- ments were issued for thirty-five men, who are on the regular venire and who failed to answer to their names in the present case. The regular venire was exhausted in the morning and when court convened in the afternoon the Sheriff announced that he could make no returns on the attachments until this morning. Accordingly an adjournment was taken. In addition to the attachments Judge Cook or- dered a special venire of fifteen names, returnable when court convenes. It is thought that the panel will be completed readily to-day, as the prose- cution and defense each have only two peremptory challenges left. The open- ing statement for the prosecution will be short and the taking of testimony will begin at once. According to the police no new evidence of the alleged crime has been discovered beyond that :ntreduced at the preliminary hear- ng. | | | | | —_————— CONFER ON COLLECTION OF FRANCHISE TAXES City Officials and Attorney of Tele- phone and Powder Companies Discusg Proposed Settlement. The Supervisors’ Finance Commit- tee and Assessor Dodge held a con- ference yesterday with the attorney of ths Sunset Telephone Company and the California Powder Works relative t> the collection of taxes on the fran- chises of the companies named for 1901. Dodge had put an assessment of $1,000,000 on the franchise of the telephone company and, $250,000 on that of the powder company. The companies protested against paying sfich a tax and the Supreme Court r2- cently ruled that the assessments were entirely legal. The questions involved were discussed by the city officials and the attorney of the corporations, but no decision was reached. —_———— Quarrel Over Girl's Estate. Mrs. L.

The respective claims of each of the women were heard yesterday by Judge Coffey. Mrs. Doyal wants Mrs. Wer- ner removed because Mrs. Werner is about to get married again, but the court refused to make the change.’ holding that if the removal of Mrs. Werner were desired the proper way to accomplish it was to file a petition to that effect. —_——— Enormous Yosemite Travel.

People in search of an earthly para- dise go to Tahitl. that attracts. The Sierra took out among its pas- | sengers yesterday, J. L. Young, the well-known shipping merchant of Auckland, the principal and pictur- esque city of New Zealand, to which he is returning after a brief Vv Tahiti, in which island paradise he formerly lived for sixteen years. Of Tahiti he said: Although I have visited many beautiful places in the interval, my heart and I might my eyes turn untraveled to my lovely old d bome. It is amazing the comparaiively few, even among traveled people, Who know anything of Tahiti, which has been recognized by those who have explored its beauties as “‘the genuine Paradise of the Pacific. Ever since 1844 Tahiti has been under French influence, and this influence is pecullarly ap- parent in the character and customs of the | present generation. There is a daintiness of action, a gayety and a courtesy of manmer mingled with an emotion and enthusiasm which form a delightful French ensemble. NATIVES CELEBRATE. On_the 14th of July of each year the fall the Bastile is celebrated with remarkable ze and from near and far the. uatives assemble to keep up the great French natiomal holiday. Holiday, I should rather have said days, for the commemoration is rarely finished under three days. At this fete the natives, now civil- ized, revert to the most ancient of their rites and’ custgms and wear all the grotesque and quaint accoutrements peculiar to great tribal functions, Many globe trotters visit Tabitl espectally” for this cccasion, Including a goodly number of the home loving French people. The laws, of course, are of that country, and the Governor is always sent direct from Paris. The natives are most courteous to fourists, and particularly anxious to add to their com- fort or pleasure, a circumstance which greatly enhances the enjoyment of a visit. The scen- ery is remarkably fine and excellent roads are open to the great precipices and gorges which lie quite close to the coast. In one case the mountain heights reach an altituds of 8000 feet. The ordinary native hut is made of reeds roofed with pandanus leaf, but, owing to the great success of the vanilia cuiture, many of the growers have invested their newly ac- quired wealth in modern wooden house. But even these abodes are necessarily pictur- esque, for the foliage and flowers which sur- round them are of entrancing beauty. The single and large double gardenias, with their pure white blossoms, are side by side with the gorgeous flower of the flamboyant tree. and nothing could be finer than the contrast be- tween the dark, quiet green of the hibiscus follage and the dazzling scarlet of Its brilliant flowers. WHERE NATURE CHARMS. One spicially interesting scene lies at Moorea, which faces the harbor fifteen miles away, but can be seen distinctly from Papeete. The picturesque formation of the pemks, varied and fantastic, reaches a height of three thou- sand feet, aud the sunset at this locale is fomething to be ever fondly remembered. Then near at hand there is the Tuamotu group. from which large guanmtities of mother-of-pearl and copra are obtained, and the Marquesas group #0 admirably dealt with by Herman Meiwville in his storles “Omoc’ and ‘‘Teynce,” which detailed the life of these very Interesting in- habitants. ‘A hundred miles away to the northwest are | Bora Ralatea, Huahine and bora, which are in constant communication with Tahitl, and two hundred miles to the south lies Tubual, where the mutineers of the Bounty endeavored to make a settlement. They were, however, driven off by the natives, and subsequently pitched their camp at Pitcairn Island. The beautiful Cook Island group, now unde: British rule, Is about five hundred mijes t the southwest, and present interesting exam- ples of different types, from mountains en- Circled by reefs down to the coral atoll, while there ere wholly remarkable instances of up- heaved coral formation.
