THE anxiety~of the Republican
press to disgust Senator Hearst with
official life at Washington is one Of
the most poignant things that has
come under our ken in long while.
Our genial Senator is represented, in
the Washington Geographic cores
pondence OF the Chronicle, written
on the corner OF Bush and Montgom-
cry streets, third story, entrance on
Bush street, to have said that "there
is nothing in the thing" viz, in be-
ing Senator in Congress. Nov ii is
just possible that Mr.. Hearst may
have thus expressed himself, but the
chances are little more than ninety
nine in hundred that the conceit
had its origin in the unchecked and
licentious Imagination of a Chronicle
stipendary. The truth is that Mr..
and Mrs. Hearst and their encourage
have already proved to be one OF the
most attractive features of the social
life of Washington. Modest as a
violet, the new Senator has not OBJ
truded himself upon the Senate, but
already he has made very agree a
BILE impression upon that body. Thus
far he has confined himself to a
eulogy upon his predecessor, Senator
Miller, 1t was gem. 1t is safe to
say that he will not only desire to be,
but will be reelected.

A Grand Time at santa Monica,

Signs are not lacking that Santa
Monica is about to have a good old
fashioned real estate boom. The build
ing of the new hotel Arcadia, railroad
prospects and the unsurpassed location
for homes make it very probable that
there is more immediate money in an in
ves,ment at Santa Monica than any
other part of the county. A chance 10
make first class investment is afforded
by the subdivision of fifty-four beautiful
seaside lots in the Charles M. Stimson
subdivision of the Prospect Hill tract,
Santa Monica. These choice lots will
be sold Wednesday, June 9th, by Ben
f. Ward, auctioneer. The lots are
three minutes walk from the beach and
the new hotel, and front OH an avenue
80 feet wide, with 20 foot alley in the
rear. A fine lunch will he serve and

THE American party has received,
if not its baptism of blood, at least
its "send. off," The much irrigated
and thoroughly promising region Of
Fresno has seen its birth. Its pro-
jectors go gaily forward utterly indif-
ferent to, and oblivious of, the fate of
the old Know Nothing party. With a
festive intrepidity worthy OF all honor,
they are willing to take the plunge in
the dark; and no old saw about look
ing before you leap disturbs the
dreams of future political bliss of
these formulators of new political
creed. We understand that the re-
deubtable Major Horace Bell, oil Los
Angeles, has made up his mind to
follow Wigginton, and that he medi-
tates the assembling of cohorts re-
solved to do or die in the line OF the
new departure. The Major as thau-
muturgic agitator has shown his
prowess OF old. He doubtless looks
upon the Republican party as efete,
and will aim to give it a young and
virile successor. We know OF no
Democrat who will interpose any Sc
rious objection to the carrying out OF
such a programme. They all hope
that those who believe in an Ameri-
can party may have the courage OF
their convictions even if thereby, the
grand old party" yclept the Repub-
lican organization, should in conse-
quence experience serious diminu-
ton of its imposing representation at
the polls. All roads lead to Rome ;
which is another way OF saying that
the Democratic party OF California
this year has sure hold on Sacra'
mento and Washington.

ST.. LOUIS, May 81 In the Maxwell
trial counsel for the State introduced
evidence in rebuttal of prisoner't
testimony. Morgue superintendent
Ryan testified that Preller's body was
exhumed last Friday; a post mortem
examination was made and certain or
gans referred to by Maxwell in his tes-
timony as diseased, were removed and
taken to DR.. Brokaw. The body at the
time was in good condition. The do.
Tense objected to the testimony on this
point on tho ground that the defense
were kept in ignorance of the occur
renee, and they had no representative TO
see that the body from which the organs
were removed was really Preller's.
A. V. A, Brockway, assistant to the
Chair of Surgery aud Demonstration OF
Anatomy in the Missouri Medical Col
lege, was present ut the dissection OF
the organs referred to, and testified that
he made personal examination OF them
but failed to find evidence of any dis
ease or structure. The State then an
nounced that they had no further evil
dence in rebuttal to offer. Mr.. Fauntel'
roy, of the defense, asked the privilege
of having the parts of Preller's body in
the possession of the State inspected by
experts for the defense Mr.. Clover, OF
the prosecution, wanted the names Of
the experts submitted to him, and was
willing to give them to any repu able
surgeon or physician except the medical
adviser of the defense. The defense re.
fused to accept this conditional offer
aud the testimony was then declared to
be closed by both State and defense.
Judge Van Wagner said he would en-
deavor to have the instructions ready by
tomorrow at 10 o'clock, and adjourned
Court until that time.
After considerable discussion the
Court decided to admit the testimony.
Dr. Prewet was placed on the stand and
he testified that the parts which Max
well said were diseased were found to be
in normal, healthy condition.
