LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

the meeting Monday evening, the reports for
January showed 256 persons relieved by 907
dispensalions. There were upon the books
February 1st 20 infrm men, AZ women and
lis chiIdrea-in all 1S2-who will require
more or less aid the present month. Re-
ceived By the Treasurer, frcn monthly SUBJ
scripsions. Sl52; from other sources. S12O So /:
total, S272 SO. Discussed $500 Is. Balance
in the treasury, February 1st, $454 81. The
bills audited for January amounted to
1914 II. The present indebtedness for re-
lief is $3.50 AZ, dsduetine therefrom the above
treasury balance of S454 81, leaves the sum
of S225 81, to be drawn from the permanent
fund, which, unless some way can be de-
vised to meet the monthly relief, must be
rapidly depleted. This appeals for aid the
past month have been unusually numerous
and urgent, even for this season OF the year.
There has been, ard still is, very large
amount OF sickness among those applying 60
the Howards for relief. which has compelled
heavy outlay for special sick expenses, and
by disabling others, who could earn partial
support for their families, has forced them to
ask assistance, which they would otherwise
have avoided. The Directors ask the atten-
ton Of the public to the necessities of the
case. They would also warn the citizens of
Sacramento against family who will not
work, but go from town to town begging, and
who are more persistent bsggars now than
eight years ago, whea all were children and
were supported by the Howar0s. For
acknowledgment Of donations see notice.
POLICE CoURT.-Long before 10 o'clock
yesterday morning the Police Courtroom
was densely packed with spectators who were
anxious to get a glimpse of the murderer
Hurtado. When this case was called Hur-
tado arose and notified the Court that his
counsel, @. T. Jones, was absent from the
city, and desired continuation OF the case
until Saturday next. The Iequest'was grant
ed, all the witnesses summoned to testify in
the case were recognized By the Court and
ordered to appear on Saturday next, when
the examination will take place. The muir.
dered mans friends have engaged Grove
l.. johnson to assist the District
Attorney in the prosecution Of the case. One
small boy IL years of age was arraigned on
charge of battery, and three other Juveniles
on charge of petty larceny. The Judge,
In casting his eye over the vast assemblage in
the Courtroom, caught sight Of some boys
under Is years OF age. He stopped the pro-
ceedings of the Court, had the youths brought
before him, and after ascertaining from each
the fact that he was there simply out of idle
curiosity, he gave them a severe lecture. He
told them they should either be at school, or
at home under parental and better influences
than could possibly be found in, around and
about the Police Court. He said he was 60
ing to stop this coming to Police Court by
minors. Told them to leave the COURTROOM
at once, to go Immediately to their homes,
and never dare show themselves in that
locality again.
THE NATIVE Sous ITEM.-The Native
Sons of the Golden West, which means those
fortunate youths who were born beneath the

show their friends how Golden Westerner
can entertain. Ths occasion is the annual
ball and reunion of Sacramento ParIor. Ne. 8

and the festivity will rule st the Assembly
Chamber. These Native Sons say that the
ball is to be informal as to dress, which is
grateful announcement to such as newspaper
reporters, who take the odd fancy to sail
around the ballroom occasionally in linen
buster. Seriously, however, the young gem
tlemen Of this organization have an enviable
reputation for the manner in which they con-
duct these annual reunions, and there is rea-
son to believe that tonight they will eclipse
all their previous efforts, and that the native
daughters viii find no reason TO complain of
any Of the arrangements made for their en-
tertainmeat this bali The native goideners,

A. Anderson nads the bold point that in this
State there could be 10 common law arbitra-
ton, which at cnce attracted the attention
of the Court rs an eacroachment upon the es-

visions If that code, when procedure is pre-
scribed, is repealed and abrogated That
