1t Should be a Lesson.

Before Justice McAllister this morn
ing the only business transacted was
the tIial of John ST. John, an employee
of the Arkansas Pass railway, who,
under the charge of disturbing the
peace, was tried by a jury for his part
in shamefully insulting two young
ladies in the audience at the Grand
Opera house. From the testimony of
the witnesses it appeared that this
young man was the principal culprit,
and the jury thought so, too, as they
were out only a few minutes after the
trial when they returned a verdict
against him of guilty, and assessed
his fine at the extreme penalty of the
law, 500 and costs. Although the
calling of jury was at the request of
the defendant, his attorney, Mr..
Summerlin, took an appeal
from this verdict and will
carry it to the higher court.
Lawyer Anderson did not assist
County Attorney Dewitt, being alb
sent in San Diego.

More PatrOlRun.

AS reported, the LIGHT showed that
signs of petroleum had been found in
the river near the Riverside restau-
rant, adjacent to Commerce street.
Then it was supposed that it was the
refuse of an overflow from some place,
but subsequent events showed that
this was wrong, and led to the infer
ence that a natural we'll existed at the
point. Samples were submitted to Mr..
George Caen which showed the pres
ence of crude petroleum, and eXamina-
ton of the spot proved that there was
a small but continual supply from Il
spring which has been traced. Steps
are now being taken to ascertain the
quality of this oil and its extent, of
which more can of course be written

Viva French.

A little Mexican driving a cart haul
ing gravel from the pit one day last
week mounted his box and cried out
"Viva French !" much to the surprise
of his compadres. The foreman at the
gravel pit at once ordered him to quit
hurrahing for French and said, eff
you boiler for French you cannot haul
any more gravel from this pit" Sew
erai of the French men took sides with
the French man. Since that time sew
eral of the men have been cut from
the pay roll, and for no other cause,
it is thought, that they would vote for
French in preference to the present al
calde.

The Officials at Work.

There was a big private political
meeting held this morning in the re-
corder's court room and nearly all the
city and county officers were present.
What they did was, of course, secret,
and can only be conjectured, but from
the smiling faces of the crowd and the
"smiles" they afterwards INDUCED
in it was quite evident that all were
very well pleased with the results of
the meeting.

1t has been observed that laughter is
indicative of particular temper and
character, according to the sound of the
vowel that prevails in exclamation.
Persons that laugh in broad Latin "a"
are open-hearted honest people, fond Of
noisy jocundity, but perhaps of voluble
mood. Excessive jerking laughter,
however, is an evidence of vulgarity.
Those laughing in dry "a" are re-
spectacle, but little expansive, and
hard lot of people. When the Latin
E prevails, there prevails also
phlegmatic, melancholy temper. Tim
orous, unsteady people, also those i'm
bued with malignity, laugh in kind of
swelling IL" Laughter in 40" is the
utterance of proud, bold, imperative,
somewhat bantering people. Beware
of those that laugh in 100" (o). They
are traitors, haters, scorners. American

Theft by Hypnotism.


There is in custody in Wolverhampton,
Stafford County, England, young
man who has been gaining a living in a
unique and extraordinary, but easy way.
Although he has been placed under
arrest it is NJ clear yet how he is to be
prosecuted, unless the old laws which
dealt with witchcIaft are revived.
His name is Lewis Albert. He is a
graduate of Oxford University. Soon
after he left college he became inter
ested IN mesmerism, mind-reading and
hypnotism, and, as result Of natural
gifts or close study soon became 80 ex-
pert that for time he travelled about
giving exhibitions of his powers. He
acquired wonderful influence over the
will power of certain classes of people.
But drink got the better of him, and
the friendship of wealthy people was
denied him. He sank to rags and hun
ger, and then he began to hypnotic
with purpose.
Small shopkeepers, usually women,
began to discover that the contents of
their tills very mysteriously dwindled
after visit from the uIbane stranger.
His custom was to enter shop, make
purchase Of some tribe and put down
copper III payment. Then the hypno-
tlzing or mesmerizing process must have
been brought into requisition, for the
in every case took up the
copper and handed out the change for
sovereign, which the young man
promptly pocketed.
Albert's last victim was n youth Of
the attendant at the box-oiiice
of a theatre in Wolverhampton. He
stepped up to the window boldly, asked
for shilling ticket, handed the boy
dirty scrap of newspaper and received
as change, without the slightest hesita-
ton on the part of the boy, four sovcr-
eigns and nineteen shillings. While
off with this he was arrested by
an officer, who had been shadowing him
for two weeks.
The boy in the box Office was dumb
founded and still stoutly insisted that
the gentleman had handed him a five.
pound note. He remembered, however,
that peculiar sensation came over him,
which he describes as sort Of numb
ness, when the nan first approached the
window of the Office.
The legal status of Allert's offence is
very difficult TO determine, as il is with
nut precedent, and good lawyers say
here is now no law in England to pun
sh him. The case is exciting great in
crest. II New York Journal.
