Burke for a writ of mandate to com- pel the payment of $596. As the pe- titioner declined to amend again, judgment was given for the defend- ant. The sum sought by Mrs. Burke was the amount paid into the fund by her husband at the rate of $2 a month for twenty-four years.

Wheeland, brother of the late Samuel Wheeland and one of his heirs, has filed an opposition to the application of the administratrix for permission to sell the stock of the Wheeland Brick Company at 50 cents a share. He declares that the stock is worth $1, will soon be paying divi- dends and that the company is on a profit making basis. He says a new drier has been installed that will give the plant a capacity of 10,000,000 bricks a year and that ,a contract has been made for 4,000,000 bricks for the new library at Stanford Unlversity, upon which the profit will be $1 50 per thousand. Wheeland declares that there is nothing to fear from the “brick trust,” because, as he says, Sray Bros. have the contract for building the Southern Pacific tunnel, which will take all the bricks pro- duced by the trust. —————— A remedy especially designed for the treatment of all kidney, liver, stomach and bowel troubles is Lash’'s Bitters. * —— e Judgment Against “Ollie” Tobim.

FLICKS Ac- | COLD DRILLING CHARMS CARY Young Lawyer Fascinated | by His Own Artistic Work on the Double Eagles RESIGNED 70 HIS FATE He Says He Could Have Flooded the City With} ! Bored Coins, but Did Not —_— psychological | H. | There is a peculiar mystery about the case of James Cary, the young attorney arrested by Secret Service Agents Hazen and Fos- | ter last Wednesday for drilling double eagles and extracting gold therefrom. According to his own story, he seldom | drank to excess, did not gamble, and was earning $100 per month in the prac- tice of his profession. If this is true it was not the pinch of poverty that drove him to the crime. Neither was it the greed of gain, for he satisfied himself with an average of $3 per day from his uniawful tampering with coins, when without very hard labor he could have realized at least $15 per day without increasing the chances of detection. He took a pride in his| work; it was unexcelled in the annals | of counterfeiting. Probably, when lhe scheme suggested itself to him—fog he ! | says it was his original conception—it fascinated him to such an extent as to destroy all his finer moral sensibili- | tles. From the moment he was taken | into custody he never attempted to deny or excuse his crime. Although he | knew that detection was inevitable, he followed the fascinating pursuit for three years. In all that period, while | the Government officers were !tud)lng» his tracks trying to make out an uh-| assailable case against him, he took | but one vacation from the work and that was last summer, when he went to the hop fields for two months, leav- ing his tools behind him. When he re- turned to his room, which was both workshop and laboratory for him, the old fascination twined Iits tendrils| about his soul and held him prisoner | for evil. 1 “The newspapers have told all mat‘; there is to be stated,” he said yester- | day as he sat in Chief Hazen's office. | “I don’t know that I can add anything to what has been published. I don’t know how I got into this thing. It was wrong, certainly, but what I did was | |not as a criminal—not with criminal | intent. I was not a gambler and I | didn’t drink to excess. 1 was earning |'$100 per month at my profession. The | $3 per diem that I averaged by drill- | ing the coins certainly should not have ‘been any Inducement to commit the | erime, for it must be remembered that |'T could easily have ‘'made five or six | times that sum and by the aid of con- | federates have flooded the country | with drilled double eagles. I knew all | along that it was only a matter of time when I would be caught.” Mr. Cary was smoothly shaved, well groomed and stylishly dressed. His manner was calm and at a casual glance, unconcerned. He said: Had I been a poor man, tempted by priva- tion, he could probally find some excuse for me, but In my case it is just the other way. I am all the more culpable because I was not in uch a condition. But I had no criminal in- tent. 1 am not a professional criminal. I | | might have wronged thousands of people by some fraudulent scheme with less risk of de- tection and punishment had I been really criminal at heart. But I must make up my mind to bear patiently with all the conse- quences of my acts. In the afternoon the prisoner was taken before United States Commis- | sloner Heacock and the complaint was read to him after he had been properly identified by United | States Secret Service Agent George W. Hazen. Judge Heacock set November 125 at 2 p. m. as the time for the pre- liminary examination. Bail was fixed at $5000, in default of which Cary was remanded to the custody of the United States Marshal. The case for the Gov- ernment is being handled by Charles M. Fickert, Assistant United States District Attorney. | OFFICERS ARE APPOINTED FOR A NOVEL EXHIBITION Pacific Coast Forest, Fish and Game Association Getting Ready for a Big Display.

Those who took part were Dr. Sykes, Miss Irene Palmer, Mrs. D. E. Rees, Miss Somers, Mrs. Vanvales, Miss Pearl T. Hossack and Miss Da- vis. The parlors were crowded and | the sales will be sufficient to enable the ladies of the Endeavor Soclety of the church to purchase a great Christ- mas tree and do many other kindly | acts that will go toward making Yule- tide a happy event in the case of needy children. ‘WILL REDUCE THE FEES FOR STREET SURVEYS gt ez The Board of Works yesterday | adopted the recommendation of the City Engineer that the fees charged property owners for surveys for the| construction of curbs and stone side- walks be reduced by one-half be- cause they are now excessive and Jburdensome. The board directed the official named to submit a new schedule of reduced fees. The board ordered signs on the top of a building at 312 Sixth street to be removed. The board ordered an investigation of the complaint of the Central Im- | — provement Association relative to the | impassable condition of Corbett avenue, Contracts for street work were awarded to Flinn & Trea.cy and Wil-' lams & Belser. { Manager of the Grand Learns | small stores for displaying ads, as it | Campbell, the wide-awake treasurer of DISCOVERS NEW GAME OF GRAFT That Employes Have Been | Regularly Selling Passes PAPER WILL BE SCARCE Custom of Giving Tickets to Keepers of Small Stores Is Now to Be Discontinued The managers of local theaters have decided to discontinue glving passes to has been discovered that the practice has permitted grafters to beat the showhouses out of about $20,000 a year. This discovery was made by Harry the Grand Opera-house. A few days ago a woman appeared with six passes such as are given for | displaying lithographs. Campbell be- came suspicious and told the woman that they were no good. ‘“Why, they ought to be,” sald the woman. “I paid 75 cents for them.” ‘This gave Campbell the clew and he collected evidence that convinced him that J. E. King and Tony Bianci, who handle these passes for the Grand Opera-house, the Columbia and Fisch- er's, had been making money by selling | passes, An employe of the California Theater was discharged for the same cause. The three have been acting with keep- ers of small stores, to whom they gave | ! part of the money received. King and | Blanct did not appear at the Grand Opera-house last night. They will be discharged. —————— ‘When a man catches up with his own ideals he has begun to die. ADVERTISEMENTS. MASS OF SORES Awful Sufisring of a Boy from an liching Humour, GURED BY G GIITI(:IIBA Not One Square Inch of Skin nn His Whole Body Was Unaffzcted. * My little son, a boy of five, broke out with an itching rash. Three doc- tors prescribed for him, but he kept getting worse until we could not dress him amy more. They finally advised me to try a certain medical college, but its treatment did not do any good. At the time I was inducéd to try Cuticura Remedics he was so bad that I had to cut his hair off and put the Cuticura Ointment on him on bandages, as it was impossible to touch him with the bare hand. There was not ome square inch of skin on his whole body that was not affected. He was one mass of sores. The bandages used to stick to his skin and Ia removing them it used to take the skin off with them, and the screams from the poor child were heart-break- ing. I began to think that he would never get well, but after the second application of Cuticura Ointment I began to see signs of improvement, and with the third and fourth applica- tions the sores commenced to dry up. His skin peeled off twenty times, but It finally yielded to the treatment. I used the Cuticura Resolvent for his blood, and now I can say that he is entirely cured, and a stronger and healthier boy you never saw than he is to-day.” ROBERT WATTAM, 4922 Center Ave., Chicago, Ill., Dec. | 30, 1897.

BUSINESS DEMANDS TIME ! Holds He Can Profit More by | Giving Entire Attention | to His Own Interests| g Following close upon the heels of the resignation of William H. High as a member of the State Bank Commis- sion comes the announcement from Re- publican headquarters that Guy B. Bar- ham of Los Angeles, also a member of the commission, will soon vlace his resignation in the hands of Governor Pardee, the same to take effect on { January 1. The announcement that Barham has decided to retire from office occasioned some surprise among his friends, but, like his associate on the board, Mr. High, he desires to give his entire at- tention to his private business, feeling that in the battle of the years before him he will profit more by taking the step he contemplates at the opening of the new year. The demands upon his time as a member of the Bank Commission, Mr. Barham told his friends, were so great that his private interests were being neglected by him through mnecessity. Appreciating the fact that as a public official the public had. the first de- mand upon his time he permitted mat- ters that required his urgent attention to wait upon what leisure time pre- sented itself to him In his official ca- pacity. When this leisure time came he often found that he had sacrificed his own interests. Then, philosophiz- ing with himself, he came to the con- clusion that he must either abandon all of his private business or resign from office. He decided upon the latter course, so on the first of the year Governor Pardee must appoint his successor. Mr. Barham was appointed Bank Commissioner In the latter part of 1902, but during the following session of the Legislature a bill was passed and signed by the Governor abolishing the commission. Barham thus found him- self legislated out of office, but in June of 1903, after the new banking law, re- organizing the commission, had gone into effect, he was reappointed and has held the office up to this time. After retirement from office he will return to Los Angeles and devote his entire at- tention to important business under- takings. The salary that attaches to the office 1s $3600 a year and with two of these of- fices on his hands and the appointment of the entire appellate bench, nine Judges, to be looked after, Governor Pardee will have ammunition with which to please eleven of his friends and, perhaps, displease many more that fail to be numbered among the winners. i et s PERSONAL.
