The unfortunate lit- tie fellow said he knew nothing about the stzbbing of Parker, although he | was in the house at 22 Tehama street ! when it occurred. W. S. Irwin, who| |also was there at the time, testified he | did not hear or see Parker and the de- ! fendant quarrel. | |, “Itis apparent that this man has de- | liberately committed perjury to save | | the defendant,” said the Judge, “and I| | regret my inability to hold her for trial | {in the Superior Court. She is dis-| charged.” Three brothers, August, Willlam and Robert Huber, who came from their | home at Napa to make hcliday in the | city, were fiercely battering each other | | night before last at Clay and Kearny | streets when Patrolmen McGrane and | Davids separated and arrested them. | Their faces bore - evidence of the| ferocity of their biows and witnesses | told the policemen that the fight start- ed at California and Kearny streets and was kept up along the latter thor- oughfare to the point of arrest. Wil- liam pleaded that he was acting as peacemaker between August and Rob- |-ert, who began quarreling over a “fam- ily affair,” but Judge Mogan declined | | to discriminate and fined each of the combatants $5. Joseph Stokes and Frank Wilson, | charged with assault with a deadly weapon. denied that either of them | | smashed a bamboo opium pipe on the | | head of Joseph Conte, landlord of the | }lodxmg~h0un& in which they dwelt at | 637 California street. The pipe, they explained, was used by them to prop |up a sagging portion of the mattress of ‘their bed and it was fractured by Mr. Conte casting Mr. Stokes violently upon the couch. Mr. Conte and his wife, Leontine, triéd to evict the de- fendants and in the scrimmage the pipe was broken. Judge Fritz reduced the charge of assault with a deadly weapon to plain battery and remanded the defendonts for sentence. EIE Patrolman Maloney, whose beat is Union Square, complained that his of- ficial ‘lot- would be much happier {f| Jacob Burko, fruit peddler, were com- pelled to keep his horse and wagon in motion, as prescribed by ordinance. In- | id of doing that Mr. Burko allowed his horse to occupy one spct until he saw the policeman approach, when he hastily attached a “nose bag” to its | head and averred that he could not induce it to travel while it was feed- ing. Repeated warnings having failed to persuade him to cease his trickery, | he was arrested and the officer hoped that Judge Mogan would abstain from leniency in his case. His Honor re- sponded by fining Mr. Burko $5. Ol S, Herman Meyers, arrested for enter- ing and plundering the room of Louis Petroff at 1181 Ellis street, obtained |only a cheap pocketknife and thirty cents as reward of his enterprise. In his _possession, however, the police | found $50 wrapped in a silk handker- chief marked “B” and they opine that hé committed a more remunerative burglary than that of which Mr. Pet- roff was the victim. Judge Fritz con- tinued the case till to-morrow. B e It was not his fault, John Smith de- clared, that the horse he was driving at 5 o'clock p. m. on Market street ex- ceeded the legal speed limit. He hired the animal, vith buggy attached, at the Nevada Stables, he sald, and so long as he drove It westward it &id not seem to be particularly eager to sprint. No sooner had he reversed the direction of its head and commenced the return journey, however, than it dashed forward with great gusto and, tug and pull as he would at the reins, he could not control its gait. After | his ‘arrest and liberation on bail he | made some inquiry into the animal’s | record and ascertained that it emulat- ed the tortoise until its regular dinner hour drew nigh and it was headed stableward, when it outfooted ‘he pur- sued hare. Judge Mogan patiently har- kened to Mr. Smith’s plea and prompt- | ly dismissed the complaint. { o o Wi W | Frank Bell and Palino Prescott were | sweethearts until a mere “tiff” de- | velobed into a breach that defied the bridging efforts of mutual friends, and | the twain finally drifted completely | apart. They had not seen each other for several years until last Tuesday | evening, when they unexpectedly met face to face at the intersection of | Jackson and Kearny streets. Frank | stared and bowed; Palino gasped and curtsied. Frank raised his hat and | smiled; Palino returned the smile. A moment later they were amiably con- | versing. ia the court of Judge Mogan yester- | day Palino testified that never in all Lher born days had she witnessed a more complete change of demeanor | than was displayed by Frank when she | informed him that she was a wife. The | information transformed him from a | cooing dove into a roaring llon, she | declared, and if she did lay hands upon | him it was in effort to quell his fren- zied upraidings rather than with in- tent to mutilate his facial cuticle. Frank, on the other hand, averred | that he was never more astonished in | his life than when Palino assailed him after he had incidentally remarked | that he was contemplating a marital | union with a young lady whom they | both knew and admired in the old | days. If he did repel Palino’s attack, | his action was purely self-defensive. Then the policeman who arrested Frank and Palino testified that they were clinched and punching with free right hands when he found them and that both of them hit in the com- pulsory breakaway. They ill re- appear tofdly'(or !en(ence. . Al Mulligan stood in front of .he Hall of Justice at midnight and howled | contumely at the structure and every- body and everything connected with it. | Asked by Judge Mogan why he did so, Al said that when he compared the | time indicated by his watch with that | shown on the face of the hall tower | clock he found there was a difference | of one minute and seven and one-quar- | ter seconds, and knowing his chrono- | | meter to be infallibly «.rrect, he was expressing his opinion of the official | | carelessness responsible for the un-| | reliability of the clock when a police- | { man ran out and scooped him In. ! When the watch was offered in evi- | dence, however, it shattered Al's plea | by showing only one hand and obsti- | nately refusing to tick. Al was fined | $5. | ———————— | TEAMSTER INJUKED.—Jess Mathers, driver of a butcher wagon, wis knocked off ELis seat ot the crossing of Fourth and Berry | strects yeste afternoon, recelving injuries 1w the spin umn by being struck by one | Of the wheels.

IF V Fe LONDON, Nov. 2—That elaborate but somewhat futile ceremony—the election of a Lord Mayor of London, having resulted as every one previously knew it would—Alderman Pound will be sworn into office on November 8 as the civic figurehead of the biggest city in the world. wife will share in his dignities and as- gist him in dispensing hospitality at the Mansion House, which constitutes the chief function of this once high and stately office. John Pound, now the Right Honor- able Lord Mayor-elect of London, is 75 years old. He inherited a flourishing business from his father and is very wealthy. That is the ifirst and most es- sential qualification of a Lord Mayor, for although his salary equals that of the President of the United States— £50,000 a year—he is expected to spend twice as much more in giving sumptu- ous banquets, maintaining the official residence in proper style and setting a generous exampie by liberal donations to charities. As the Lord Mayor en- tertains the King and a host of other dignitaries, and is invariably knighted before his one yvear term of office ends, the rewards are considered well worth the price paid for them. IN LINE FOR THE PLACE. Pound took the step that, if he lived long enough, was bound to result in the realization of his ambition by getting himself elected a life member of the Board of Aldrmen of the citygf Lon- aon, several years ago. Thereafter all NEXT LORD MAYOR OF LONDON, WHO WILL SOON ASSUME THE POSITION, WHICH ARE SOCIAL A POLITICAL STAN OF ALMOST NO SIGNIFI- DPOINT. AND e he had to do was to sit tight and wait his turn. In due course of time he was made Sheriff, filling that purely orna- mental office for one year, and then taking his place on the Mayoralty wait- ing list among those who had similarly qualified for the higher honor. The election that precedes its final attain- | As Lady Mayoress his | ment is such in name only. The choice is invariably determined by seniority. The electors are not the ordinary rate- paying citizens, who would, if given the chance, be guided by their own judg- | ment as to the fitness of a candidate, | but Freemen-Liverymen, members of these medieval relics, the City Guilds, in whose eves precedent is of all things most sacred. And precedent de- cides for them to whom they shall give their votes. There is never any con- test. The man gets the billet who stands next on the waiting list. MERELY A FIGUREHEAD. The Lord Mayor’s bailiwick comprises only a small portion of London—that which is known as the “city”—some- thing under a mile square in area with the Mansion House as its center. The rest of the vast human beehive is gov- erned by the London County Council, an admirable body that does its work in up-to-date fashion without any use- less ceremonial paraphernalia. The real Mayor of London is chairman of that body. But the honors all go to the puppet Mayor, who, though shorn of most of his ancient powers, is sur- rounded with mony, show and glitter, stuff and non- sense than the court of royalty itself. -_— % LAWYER BROWN SAYS HE RETURNED THE FEE Matter of His Proposed Disbarment Submitted on Briefs in Circuit Court of Appeals. The matter of the citation of John K. Brown to show cause why he should not be disbarred was submit- ted on briefs yesterday before the United States Circuit Court of Ap- peals. Brown is a lawyer doing busi- ness at Seattle. Several months ago he received from Martha H. Shields of Nome, Alaska, $200 for the purpose of paying the necessary expenses to- ward enabling Mrs. Shields to make a showing before the Court of Ap- peals for the dismissal of the writ of error in the case of Martha H. Shields vs. Mongollon Exploration Company et. al. and to reinstate the case upon the calendar. Brown neglected to file the papers and Mrs. Shields’ rights were sacrificed, a default having been entered against her. Mrs. Shields af- terward laid the matter before the court. Brown filed an affidavit yesterday to the effect that on July 2, 1904, he repaid to Mrs. Shields’ husband the $200 that had been advanced. —————————— Dr. Stoll Again Acquitted. Dr. Benjamin F. Stoll was acquitted | for the second time by the same Jury late Tuesday afternoon in Judge Cook’s court on the charge of murder: He shot and killed Dr. Robert J. Blake in the offices of Decker & Stoll, dentists, Phelan building, in October, 1802. A plea of self-defense was set up. At the first trial in January, 1903, the Judge erred in instructing the jury to acquit and the Supreme Court granted a new trial on an ap- peal by the District Attorney. The jury was only out about a minute. —————————— TWO SALOONS ATTACHED.—A writ of | attachment was served yesterday on Mrs. L. M. Muirhead at the instance of W.

The Board of Health decided ye: terday to make an appeal to the Board of Supervisors for an allow- ance from the urgent necessity -fund for the County Hospital in order that the sick poor may be taken care of at the institution. Deputy Health Of- ficer Levy says that many deserving patients are daily turned away be- cause there are no funds for their maintenance. The Board of Health has been obliged to reduce the per capita to a very low rate and the ac- commodations are taxed to their ut- most capacity. Lecture by Professor Foster. A lecture will be delivered to-mor- row night in the Y. M. C. A. audito- rium by Professor G. P. Foster, in- structor in English in Dr. Grau's Ly- ceum.

Selections will be rendered by the Golden Gate Quartet and Miss Florence Cloak will give a reading. L i AT e R SRR ot e, more pomp and cere- | WOMEN ASSIST STATE'S CAUSE Three Lady Ranchers From | the Sacramento Valley! Help at the World’s Fair ARE LIVING ARGUMENTS Mrs. Kennedy, Mrs. Bailey and Mrs. Hoppin Success- ful Farmers of California BY PAUL EDWARDS. | CALL BUREAU, PRESS BUILDING, | WORLD'S FAIR, ST. LOUIS, Nov. 2.— The Sacramento Valley Develspment Association evidently believes that the era for the demonstration of woman's usefulness in the fields usually occupied by men is here. It has shown its con- fidence in the ability of the fair sex as promoters by sending three lady com- missioners here to assist Commissioner Wills in the work of exploiting the re- sourees of the Sacramento Valley and inducing emigration to that section. Two of these, ladies have been here since the fair opened. They are Mrs. Llizabeth Kennedy of Butte County and Mrs, Rcse A. Baley of Sacramento, Mrs. Emily Hoppin ot Yolo County is the third. She has just arrived, but has plunged into the work with a vim and is keeping abreast of her two more experienced sisters in the promotion business. ¥ The Sacramento Valley holds a unique position at the fair because of its three lady commissioners. In hust- ling they keep the men at the exhibit jumping to keep up. Two of the ladies are widows and landowners, who farm their own lands and look after their own business af- fairs. The third has a husband, but she also has a business head of her own and farms many acres of leased land. | This attaches additional importance to them. It also serves as one of the big- gest advertisements for the valley, as . showing what women can do there for| themselves. The .Sacramento Valley | nog only gets excellent work out of its' lady commissioners, but it has in their experiences a demonstration of the ex-! | cellence of its agricultural conditions. | PEAR TOO BIG FOR JURY. | Mrs. Kennedy is Known as a “practi- | cal rancher.”” She is a large landowner and grows fruit that has some size to | {it. When the horticultural jury was| floating about looking for good things | 1t espied a quart jar of pears she had | | placed in the exhibit made by Yolo. ! “Very fine,” said the jury, after it had sampled. “What do you think of this variety asked Mrs. Kennedy, taking down an- | other jar. | “Also good, but doesn’t carry as much { sugar as the other,” said the jury, and | they all nodded their heads in wise ap- | | proval of each other as they smacked their lips. i “And this?” and a third jar of the| same size was taken down by Mrs.‘ Kennedy. | “A fine pear, but grown in a some- | what different soil and given less water | |in the month of September than the others,” said the jury, expecting Mrs. Kennedy to gasp at this wonderful ex- ‘hibition of pear knowledge. “That's all one pear, gentlemen,” said | Mrs. Kennedy, with a meekness that| | showed she was not remembering the | wisdom of the jury. “It took three jars to hold it.” This was a fact, too. How many women in America grow | pears one of which will fill three quart | jars? None outside California. Mrs. Hoppin has a ranch of 550 acres lin Yolé County that knows only her | own superintendency and that 550 acres | makes as much money each year as | any similar area about it farmed by | a man. Mrs. Hoppin is known as an | authority on alfalfa and dairying and the results she has obtained ought to | be enough to bring every Eastern farmer to her locality. | These two ladies are the widows of | the trio. Commissioner Wills is try- | ing to get this fact as generally known | in St. Louis as possible, for he wants | to attract all the unmarried farmers possible to the Sacramento display. PRIZE WINNING CAKE. Mrs. Bailey, besides owning a ranch, | leases land and raises profitable crops | on it. A wonderful “cake” made by | her of ¢ruits grown on her own place | has taken a gold medal and Mrs. | Bailey is proud of it. She has become | famous in the Cafifornia colony here | because of winning a special medal | through a unique and original idea. | There are forty-one varieties of fruit | in this ‘“cake.” It is two feet in di- | ameter and a foot thick. It is really i not a cake, but is composed only of | dried fruits sugared together. Several | gold medals have been taken by prod- ucts in the Sacramento Valley exhibit, but there is none that will arouse more pride than the one to be sus- pended from Mrs. Bailey's cake of fruits. In addition to taking a first| prize, the “cake” will be accorded the | honor of having its photograph put in the official book of the fair. Mrs. Balley has on exhibition some cotton grown from seed she obtained from Georgia last April. il v s ‘WESTERNERS AT FAIR. San Franciscans Who Have Recently Visited the Exposition. ST.

POLYGLOT CLUB HOLDS CLEVER ENTERTAINMENT o The Polyglot Club held its first meet ing for this season last night in the United Arts and Crafts building. Under the supervision of the president, Louis D. Ventura, a programme of excellent quality was presented and engaged the close attention of a large audience. Some of thg numbers were out of the usual set lines, notably a group of old compositions ranging from 1620 to 1764 was played by R. A. Lucchesi on the old Clementi cembalo. “Ciaccona,” for violin and piano, played by Nathan Landsbegger and Mrs. Otto Bendix, was artistic 4n beauty and egecution. The recitation of a portion of Dante’'s “Par- adise” by Miss Grace Llewelyn Jones was an exquisite gem. Her voice was well suited, with its soft modulations, to the extract, and an 6rgan accompa- niment by Signor Lucchesi gave fine coloring to the poem. Signor Ventura's opening address was appropriate to the occasion, and during the programme he gave a French comedy bit that was ex« hilarating. Others who took part were Miss Viva Hikey, Miss Mabel Vander< hoof, Mrs. P. de T. Evans, Miss Flore ence Darby and M) M. A. Tomkin. . . And still doth Cupid emulate the busy bee.
