ONE MAN DID 1T.
The CalistOga stage Robbed
wells. EargO,s Box Taken.

"cblSs aHSO'b AbOA AahCMs
CALsroaA, Gala. March 23.-To-
day when the Calistoga stage was
thirteen miles from here the driver
was ordered, by man at the road
side, to throw the Wells, Fargo &
Company's treasure box to the ground,
when he did. The robber had on a
flour sack for mask, wore blue over
alls and carried Winchester rife.
The stage passengers were not mo-
Tested. Tue box was found near the
road soon after with the top broken.
The robber got small amount of
money, and nothing else. He was
evidently after the coin that went up
to the mine. Yesterday used to be
pay day, but it was day late. Par
ties are out looking for the robber,
and the opinion prevails here that
somebody in Lake county, who knows
that money for the mine was expected
committed the robbery. A reward ol
5000 has been offered for his arrest.

ILLINOIS SOCIAL.
An Entertaining Evening a
Good Templars, Hall.

An Entertaining tVen1nE at
Good Templars' Hall.
An unusually large number of per-
sons were present at the Illinois So
ciety last night. Many ladies and
gentlemen were unable to even secure
standing room in the ante-room and
were obliged to return home. The
programme was an excellent one,
possibly over the average, and it is
known the standard is high. Mr..
Ferew pleased the audience with
a recitation entitled "Carl Dun
der's Dog;" Miss E. l.. Adams
rendered piano solo very acceptably.
The house was brought down by
Major g. w. Arbuckle in his famous
character recitation, "The Statue Of
Liberty" Major Arbuckles quick
translation from the French to Scotch,
English, Italian, Irish, German, Chi
nese, African and Yankee dialect is
so remarkably accurate and real that
the hearer almost fancies him a differ
ent individual at each change.
A zither duet by Miss Fannie Rich
and Mr.. Charles Deite, and selec-
ton, "Hamlet's Soliloqny," by Mr..
Henry Harrison, added much to the
entertainment.
After long intermission, Sidney
Grannis, the famous composer who
has produced some Of the most popu-
lar ballads of the day, favored the
audience with "The World Would be
Better !" "The Fidgety Wife," "The
Laughing Man."
The programme was concluded with
the following: Recitation, "Uh,
Unh,'' L d. Dean; reading, Mrs. Jo-
sic La Strong; either duet, Fannie
Rich and Chas. Siedel solos, "Maid.
ems Dialogue" "Sour Krout," "In
the Isles Of the By and By" Major
G. W. Arbuckle.

this afternoon John A. Benson, ex-

six demurrers 10 similar number of
indictments pending against him in
the Circuit Court. All the de-

do not charge offepse of any kind
against the United States, nor the
laws there eof, nor do they charge any
act which is made a mlsdemeanor,

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD

SAN Francisco, March 90 Horace
Davis was inaugurated President OF
the University of Southern California
this afternoon. The ceremonies were
held at Berkeley, in the Harmon
Gymnasium, and, in connection with
the Charter Day celebration, attracted
tremendous crowd. Governor Wat
erman, nearly all of the Regents, and
every prominent educator in the
State were present, and the large
Gymnasium hall, capable OF seating
over 1000 persons, was packed to its
utmost capacity. The President re-
ceived hearty welcome from the
students and citizens.
The exercises OF the day began at
O'Clock in the afternoon. At that
assembled at the north hall of the
university and marched to the cam
pus, where the Governor and staff re-
viewed them. Shortly after o'clock
the regular order of the day was be-
gun. The Governor, the new and retir-
ing Presidents, the faculty and regents,
as we'll as many invited guests, met
in the library and moved in body to
the gymnasium. After speeches by
Regent Delmas and retiring President
! Holden, President Davis was invested
with the symbols Of Office by Governor
Waterman.
William Ingraham Kip, of the
senior class, then made salutation
address on behalf of the students. A
poem in Latin was read by Miss Millic-
ent w. Shinn, of the class of 80.
Professor Martin Kellogg spoke for the
various faculties of sciences, medicine,
law and dentistry. He spoke of the
relations that should exist and would
exist among all branches of the I'm
iversity, and promised the President
the hearty cooperation of all the fac
ulties.
AN ADDRESS BY DAVIS.
President Davis made a long ad-
dress, pleading in behalf of college ed
ucation. He deprecated the spirit of
many parents manifested in allowing
their sons to graduate from public
schools direct to the counting-room.
No matter what employment was in
tended for youth, they will make
stronger and better men with a gener-
GUS education. Capital laid up in
their brains is their own, and
no financial disaster, no panic
in business can rob them of it.
Perhaps the counting-room makes
better clerk at 25, but an university
will make broad-gauge citizen at 4O
He dwelt upon the objections urged
to classical training, and then referred
with pleasure to the fact that the
higher institutions of learning are
now open to women equally with men.
He believed that this leaven will
silently work through the whole
community, giving, a higher tone
to society and exercising a
benign influence even upon public
affairs. He closed with an appeal for
support from the students and grad
yates Of the university, the regents
and faculty and from the citizens at
large.
