THE REV. E. w. JAMES.
Serious Charges Made Against Him
at Long Beach.

at Long Beach.
For some days past society circles at
Long Beach have been considerably
worked up over the story of the alleged
misconduct of Rev. E. W. James, the
pastor of the Long Beach M. E. Church.
It appears that about year ago the Rev.
James accepted an invitation to occupy
the pulpit of the church in question, and
brought down his wife, sister and
adopted son and three children to live
with him. His adopted sons name is
Charley Harris, and is 18 years of age,
who it is alleged has acquired habit
which has interfered with the growth of
his body or mind, and among other things
it is charged that the Rev. James
caused his sister and adopted son to oc-
cupy the same room in order "to save
the boys manhood" In addition to
this it is alleged that the Rev. James ILL
used his wife, although his friends say
that this is not so. Rumors to the effect
that the Rev. James has also been un-
duly intimate with some OF the female
members of his church are also floating
about the town by the Beach. 1t is also
related that he has been guilty of adult
cry with servant in his employ.
Rev. Mr.. Coles, the Secretary of the
Alliance, said, in reply to reporter:
"For my part, do not care to make
any statement about the affair, although
l think that some of the facts should be
made known to the public. l have
always said that Mr.. James should never
have accepted the pastorate of the Meth
odiet Church here, as he might have
known that all his trouble with his wife
would soon be made public in 30 small
place as this. 1t is true that he &C.
knowledged in the church meeting
that he had compelled his sister to
allow his adopted son to sleep with
her, but have since heard on the out
side that this matter referred to the boy
when he was younger than he now is."
Rev. ]. w. Van Cleve came down here
Tuesday and investigated the stories told
about Mr.. James, and as result he was
compelled to prefer charges against him,
which will be heard probably next week,
and he will then either be vindicated or
convicted, for the matter will be
thoroughly sifted to the bottom. Rev.
Mr.. Cole also said that the charges
would contain one for adultery, one for
misleading female members of the con-
gregation, immortality, and the story of
the adopted son and the preachers sister.
He said there would be also other
charges of less grave nature.

A Simple Abslnthe Drunk.

Benoit Giboulin, the baker who
amused himself last Saturday by throw
ling half-dollar pieces through the plate
glass windows of Wells, Fargo &Co's office
and the Farmers and Merchants Bank
was examined yesterday as to his sanity
in Department No. 2 of the superior
Court. 1t appeared that he lad been
indulging in unlimited "Suissesses" "a
decoction of absinthe) during the day,
and that his vagaries were entirely due
TO that cause. The Court took the same
view of the matter, and Giboulin was
discharged.

seldom that woman is tried and con-
victed of burglary that the case created
C )nsiderable interest. It appeared that
some time in February last, Hattie, who
was rooming in Mrs. Hildreth's lodging
house, on First street, went into Mrs.
Fish's room and took blue ball dress,
a corset, three handkerchiefs and an
undershirt. These we're found in Hattie's
room on the morning after the loss was
discovered, and Hattie had the under
shirt on her person. She testified on her
own behalf that Mrs. Fish, who formerly
occupied the room, had left the things
there, but the jury did not believe her,
and brought in verdict OF guilty.

THE LIBRARY DIRECTORS.

FreDaratiOns for MOVING AntO new
Quarters Being Made.
Phe Board of Directors OF the Public
library met yesterday morning, Presi-
dent Dobinson in the chair, and Messrs.
Howard, Jones, Davies and Hanchette
and the Librarian. Miss Kelso, present.
The following communication was re-
ceived from DIR. A. P. Dietz, of the Los
Angeles College:
The French language and literature are
taught in every private educational establish
ment of this city and there is proposition
maturing to introduce French course in the
common schools. Our FrenchIeadtng popula-
ton, composed of various races, with large
element of home.born Americans now sup
ports, as you may be aware, three French news
papers printed in Los Angeles. This constantly
growing class IN our community numbers to.
day, 1t is believed, at least 5000. AS one OF
this class and in the interest of all concerned,
would take the liberty in humble way TO
present the claim OF our French colony, be-
sides very many French readers OF diherent
extractions, TO commensurate supply OF
French publications on the shelves OF the PuD-
lie Library. The accompanying catalogues,
embracing every department in French liter.
ature. are hereby. rendered to the Board
M may be pleased to select and procure
some standard works OF Tetere9ce.
While ways and means are being devised to
raise Il DOOk-puTCudotuB luhHt eAO ~ASSeOAe
may, perhaps, pardon the suggestion here ven
tured that thousands OF valuable volumes
might be added to the Library by regular
domiciliary canvass of the town for donations
of books.
A vote of thanks was rendered DIR.
Dietz for the catalogues, and commit
tee, consisting of President Dobinson and
Howard, was appointed to look into the
matter Of obtaining donations of French
books for reference. The Board ex-
pressed itself in favor of making the
Library of as much benefit to French
readers as to any other class.
The committee on revision of the list
of magazines and papers reported recon-
mending that several papers be discon-
tinued, and that others from the princi-
pal cities of the United States and Lon
don be added. The report was adopted.
The Board decided to meet with the
Building Committee of the City Council
this afternoon at 2 O'Clock, to make ar
rangsments for the furnishing of the
new Library rooms. The Board then
adjourned until next Monday morning.

His son, Gus. had left home that morn
ing supposedly for his uncle's in Richland

a young man who looked like farm boy
and that the young man Immediately dis
appeared.
When the o'clock train came In young

To the Reform school.

Sheriff Smith took Joehlfs, a boy IL
years old, to the refor school for boys
at Boonville last night. The sheriff this
morning said to a BAzoo reporter: ed
was very glad to get there. 1t is nice
place and they take excellent care of those
boys whose parent don't have stamina
enough 10 control them at home. Ed was
a good, very good prisoner in Jail anu IS
a good boy aud l predict if he gets of on
the right foot that he will make a
good man. 1t costs Pettis county Sl20 per
year to keep boy in that school, bat he is
taught industry, and what is in books"
"Do they report that any escape ?"
asked the reporter.
"Yes, occasionally. Two escaped recent
ly, but they are watched closely" replied
the sheriff.
Edward Joehlfs is the first boy sent from
this county.

Bitten By N Mad Dog.

A mad dog bit five persons In 4 neigh
UOrAood near Malta Bend, Saline county,
last week. Two Of the parties bitten APP
piled 7 maidstone at Marshall yesterday
and a large amount OF matter which the
maidstone owner called virus was drawn
out. This stone Il is claimed, was found
in The pit of the stomach OF a white deer
ard has been In the possession
OF the Murrell family for e,eral centuries,
So Mr.. Murrell says. 1t is broken into two
pieces each, weighing an ounce. One OF
the other parties bitten went to Carrolton
and had a stone, owned in that place, ap-
piled, but il apparently did no good. This
stone is in two parts, and was STEPPED in
lukewarm water before being applied. One
part would be kept in the water while the
other was In use. Every few min
uies the stones would be changed and the
one in ue dipped in tepid milk
and then subjected to micro copic ex.

discovered, the milk not changing color a

A CASHIER
In q Bank at Toledo, Ohio, Ar
ranges for an Extensive Stay
i'm Canada.

Toledo, o.. November 6.-Citizens of To-
ledo were astounded this morning to learn
of the arrest of Z. III. Vanhoesen, formerly
is charged with embezzling $4,000 from
that institution while acting as cashier. He
was arrested Monday, but the matter was
kept secret until ne was brought before
United States Commissioner Hall to-day.
j. S. Keefe, formerly teller in the same
bank, was arrested last night in Chicago,
charged with completely in the crime, and
was brought back here, he waving extra
dition. Bail was fixed at $1,000 in each
case and the hearing continued until Sat
urday next. The crooke1ness of NJ.
Vanhoesen and his accomplice was dis
covered about year ago by Bank Ex-
aminer Sullivan, who notified the stock
holders that the ms tier must be fixed up
at once, else he would arrest the emb
zlers. The bank officials were amazed,
and at FIRST refused TO believe the examin-
er's story, but were convinced of
the facts. Mr.. Vanhoesen begged to be
shielded from exposure, and, after couple
Of DAYS consultation, several of The stock
holders made good the deficiency. Mr..
Vauhoesen was at once dismissed, Mr.. II,
s. Young becoming his successor. The
matter remained in this state ever since
until within the past few days, when it was
determined that the embezzling cashier
and teller should he prosecuted. Both
parties have been prominent in church
and society circles, and their arrest has
caused a censation.

THE ROLE OLA THIEF.

night, while Thorne, Cox and woman
were seated in q box at the London theat-

Mr.. Thorpe informed Officers MeGrath
aud Clark, who trailed Cox to his room at
the corner CT Seventh ands ST. Charles
streets, ard arrested him. He wss locked
up at the Four Courts, where he is still.
The accused, who is the son of DR.. Cox,
OF Springfield, Mo, created quite a sensa.
ton nearly Two years ago by his mad in
fatuation for the woman Effie Ellis, who
fTequents variety theatres and graces a
char in what is technically known as
''the first part" of the show. Young Cox's
father did all in his power to get him
away FROM the woman. ALI of his plead
ings were fruitless. Finally Efie was in-
duced TO 60 to Springfield, and on arrival
at the depot at Springfield a carrisge

she was able to regain her eyesight. When
the recovered, her face was as beautiful as
ii had ever been. AS soon as she as able
to move young Cox came to this city with
her. where they have been ever since.
Young Cox states that he was intoxicat-
ed when he took the coat.
1t appears from the testimony of the
physician in Springfield. who attended the
family for years, that young Cox is NOR
ally irresponsible at times for his acts.
DR.. Genrupg, 22l5 Olive street, who is now
attending the sister, has certificate to
that effect from, the Springfield physician,
and himself says that the young man is
morally insane" He seems to have fal.

seem there has been a set purpose to take
advantage of his moral weakness to drag
him down to the lowest possible depths,
and, in SO doing, break the heart of his
afflicted mother.

THE blenders"
Interest i'm Them Dying Out
Since They are not Believed
to be Guilty.

Kansas City. Mo-, Nov. Al. A. Lewis,
ex-sssistsnt sdjutant general of the state
of Kansas, at present a resident of this
city, was in command of the Vigilance
committee which, in 1873, was organized
at Parsons, Kan, to bring the Blenders TO
Justice. In an interview he tells the stery
of the vigilantes' fruitless chase after
the murderers from The scene OF the crimes,
to Cherry Vale, Kan, near the
Indian Territory line. From Cherry
Va'e the committee returned in body
to Parsons, and there disbanded Without
having even seen the Blenders. much less
lynched them. Mr.. Lewis says another
committee continued the search from Cher
~ Vale. Some say they lynchsd the muir
derers, others that they did not. In the
light of these conflicting statements, it
may be that the members of the Bender
family still live, and the two women ar
rested in Michigan are old Mrs. Bender
and Kate.
On the latter point a special from
O,wego says. "a large number OF per-
sons were here to-day to identify the pris-
oners. The majority were from Parsons
and the vicinity Of Bender's home. Out
OF twelve persons who had known the Ben
ders only four could see any resemblance
between them and the Blenders, and could
mike no positive Identification. The
others were positive that the prisoners were
not the Benders. There is no excitement
here over the presence of the suspects, as
was expected, and the extraordinary
vigilance exercised by the officers
TO prevent violence is wholly
needless Mrs. Mccain, who caused the
arrest of the supposed Benders, is about the
only person here who has any confidence
in holding the prisoners to the grand jury.
She is as positive as ever that she has
caught the right persons, but she is regard
ed here as crank" by those who know
her. Her mesmeric power over Mrs Davis
is regarded as the means by which she
procured the alleged cor fession. Interest

will not be revived until the day set for

A TEXAS SENSATION.
A Woman Masquerading Male
Attire.

Dallas, Tex, Nov. 6.-Mrs. Carrie It's.
dale was arrested last night at the Mascot
variety dive. She was in the front row
and elegantly sttired In suit of black
diagonal, a derby hat and carried
light walking cane, which she
handled as dexierously as a profes
sional. Her appearance was not far re-
moved from that of a man. She told the
Judge her husband had deserted her few
days ago and she learned that he was a
nightly visitor to the theatre, and
she resolved to adopt the plan she
did to catch him. She says her
mother and stepfather, John Kirls. reside
in Trinidad, Col, where he is a wealthy
merchant. She had $1,000, portion of
which she took with her when she left her
home two months ago with her husband.
After running out of money, she paid their
expenses by selling her jewelry.
A week ago her husband desired her TO
deed 10 him property she owns in TRIM dad.
This she refused to do and separation fol.
lowed. The woman is still under arrest
and her husband cannot be found.

INDIAN MURDERERS.
Details of the killing of the Ari-
IONA Officers by Their Pris-
OnerS.

Florence, Ariz Nov. 4.-The details of
the killing of officers by the prisoners yes
terday have been received here. The sher.
i'll had removed the schackles from the
legs of six of the Indians before they start
ed to walk up the grade. but they were
handcufed together by the wrists in sets
of two, their outer hands being free.
Sheriff Reynolds was in front of the
column and Deputy Holmes and the
Mexican prisoners were in the rear of the
column. At signal from one of the
Indians the sheriff was seized by the two
immediately back of him, while the two
Indians Immediately in front of the
deputy wheeled about and secured his gun,
with which, after killing him, they shot
the sheriff, who was being held by their
companions. During the melee the
Mexican prisoner ran forward to the
stage, which was about forty yards to the
front, and warned the driver, Middleton.
The latter drew his pistol. but was shot
twice by the Indians, the FIRST bull
let ranging to the top of his head, the 9TH
er passing through the lower part of his
face. After securing the KEYS to the shack
les and removing them the Indians mutt
lated the body of Reynolds, crushing his
skull in horrible manner. They then
disappeared. Middleton, after recovering
sufficiently, walked back to Riversdale
and gave the alarm. The Mexican
prisoner, after he had warned Middleton,
ran toward the hills. He was fired at
several times, but not hit. After the In
dams had left, he secured q horse, rode to
Florence and gave himself up. It is
thought, as the sheriff of Pinal county and
II Al
derers, that there is little prospect of the
latter being captured. Troops have been
ordered out from Apache, San Carlos, Fort
Mcdowell and Lowell to intercept the
murderers if possible.

AT WASHINGTON.
The President Apparently Not
Worried Over the Situation.

Washington, u. c., Nov. 6-The pl esi.
dent does not appear to have worried him
self about the elections. He went TO bed
shortly after 10 O'Clock last night, conclud-
ing that the return would furnish no
definite information as to the results ia the
several states where elections were held. A
Western Union wire connected the white
house with New York, and local wires
brought the bulletins from Virgins and
the West. Attorney General Miller was the
only Cabinet fficer who dropped In during
the evening, aud he spent short time
with the President in the library, looking
over the bulletins which the Private Sec
retsry Halford had sorted out of the great
pile that came over the wires This morn
ing the President was up at his usual hour.
His first caller was =, cretsry Window, who
had large amount of Treasury business
toStransact, but found time to discuss the
defeat of Malone and the close contest in
Ohio.
"The President does not regard the de-
feat of the Republican party in Virginia.
OHIO and Iowa as involving the Admins
tration. While he is of course sorry that
the result is as it is. he is not surprised.
The result in Iowa he attributes to the
temperance issue and to the appropriately
OF one of the candidates with the farmers.
He does not take the responsibility for
Mahone's candidacy in Virgins, but
holds whatever assistance and sup
port he gave Malone was not more
than he would have given any nominee of
the party. Malone was in no sense per-
sonally his candidate. He attributes the
result in Ohio to the oppC sitiop of the
voters on general principles to the election
of any man to an Office for a third term.
He regards il as a protest against third
term for Foraker and against the idea in
general of third term. He does not feel
that the voters were passing verdict upon
the National Administrations"
