WINDOWS PLAN.

This part of the world has not yet re-
ceived copies of h report made tn
congress by Secretary Window. 1t is
said hat the plan by which the secre-
tary proposes to be helpful to silver is
unfolded in the report. The summary
sent out in advance is So brief AZ to
leave the Montana reader i'm doubt as to
the exact meaning of Mr.. WINDOWS
plan: in fact, whether there he error i'm
the telegraphis transmission or for
whatever reason. the summary already
printed in Montana newspapers is. in
instances, somewhat misleading.
The st. Louis convention demanded
unlimited coinage of silver. As "a rule.
the West has simply insisted on the
coinage of the maximum S4.OOO,OOO per
month. Apparently. Mr.. Window ia
vors Il departure from the existing bill
under which silver Is coined and he
suggests hat certificates be issued
against deposits of bullion. a plan for
which. il the conditions are satisfac-
tory. h West would be willing to trade
the existing law.
If the proposition is hat the secre-
tary may suspend the purchase of bull
lion for such time as may suit his judg-
ment, or If IL il intended that the sec
rotary shall " power to go into the
market and sell silver. there ma arise
suggestions which silver advocates will
not be disposed tn accept in haste.
There may be a certain degree of merit
i'm vesting the treasury department
with "a measure Of control over the
issue of currency which is represented
by bullion or coin held by the general
government, but if the broad power
which il is proposed tn lodge with the
secretary is needed. then the advantage
which nS Mr. Win1ntp nSSarfs 10 IN
follow from retaining an option tn re-
deem the certificates in gold. is of very
small account
However, people whom the question
interests must wait for the full text of
the secretary's report. Whatever il
suggests il cannot possibly disappoint
the West more completely than did the
timidk and nondescr.pt paragraph i'm
which President Harrison warned con-
gress to go slow with silver lest great
injury be done to the country.

1t will he Completed During thu
Next Wear.
When the Board of Trustees of the
Normal School met in Los Angeles last
fall it was decided to recommend to the
Legislature an appropriation of O,O0(
for the construction of a gymnasium
There are nearly 800 pupils in the Nor
NAL School, about sixty Of them mer
and the rest young women. 1t was held
by the Board that physical culture was
an important factor in the preparation o.
these young people for the professions
which they had chosen and that regular
exercise would tend to make the n
better able to do good work in theil
studies. TWAS also desired to introduce
gymnastics, as far as possible, into the
schools, which could only be done by
practicing the future instructors in this
branch of the work.
The Legislature took the same view Of
the case as the Board. and ordered the
appropriation of $10,0 900 for this purpose
The money will be ready for use at the
order of the Board on the first
day of July, and the work will
be Immediately begun. A building
of about 60x100 feet will be erected or
the property of the Normal School, west
of the play ground, very near where the
magnetic observatory now stands. The
foundation will be of stone and the super
structure of wood. 1t is proposed to put
up building of presentable appearance
although large part of the appropria
ton will be laid out in obtaining all the
apparatus which is needed for we'll
equipped gymnasium.
The work will be begun as soon after
the LIST of July as the plans can be made
probably in the month of August. Within
year from that time it is expected tina
the building will be completed and the
apparatus ready for use.
The Board of Directors of this schoo
consists of o. w. Childs, who is the
President; Lieut.. Governor S. M. White
Colonel George H. Smith, Captain A
Davidson and Clara Foltz. Governor
Waterman and Ira G. Hoitt, State Super
intendent of Instruction, are e1-oticit
members. The Board proposes to make
instruction in physical culture and reg
ular exercises in gymnastics part of the
obligatory course of work in the college

THE w. G. T. U.
The Annual Meeting Held at P0-
mona.


The sixth annual meeting of the Los
Angeles County w. c. 7. U. was held at
Pomona Tuesday morning, and was
warmly received by the Reception Com
mittee, which conducted them to the
Congregational Church, which was pro.
fusely and tastefully decorated with
flowers. The time until the noon hour
was spent in pleasant conversation, and
then lunch was served in the large hall,
where two large tables were bountifully
spread with the products of Southern
California. Altogether, about fifty guests
were present, and each was presented
with fragrant bouquet. At O'Clock in
the afternoon the meeting was called to
order by the President, Mrs. Emma
Cash. Then followed a fellow
ship meeting, reading, singing,
prayer, praise and thanksgiving. The
address of welcome was given by Mrs.
L. III. Meserve, of Pomona On behalf
of the Pomona w. G. T. U. she extended
the right hand of fellowship to the Wis
itors. The roll WAS then called, and it
was found that over sixty delegates were
present The president delivered her
annual address, which was more than
ordinarily interesting. 1t showed that
the Unions had increased from eleven to
thi,ty-nine, with membership of 900,
besides over 1900 children. At the
present time, she said, the w. CT. u.
had county fund, a paper of its own, q
Temperance temple and several Loyal
Temperance Legions. In closing che
urged all present to continue the work
with steadfastness. Ire election of Off
GERS resulted as follows: President, Mrs.
Emma Cash; Recording Secretary, Mrs.
J. Wag, OF Ell Modena; Corresponding
Secretary, Mrs. Garter, of University
Vice-President, Mrs. Hiatt, of Whittier.
The evening meetings were held in
Opera Hall, where there were good
speaking, singing and recitations to be
found on each occasion. The Band OF
Hope aided greatly, as also did Mrs.
ABBOTT and Miss Henrietta G.. Moore, of
Ohio. The visitors we're driven in car
riages around the city and the surround
ing country, and when the meeting
closed it was decided that very pleasant
session had been held.

THE PANTHEON TOURNAMENT.
Everything in Readiness for the
Opening Day.

everything IN headthess IOT the
Opening Day.
The Pantheon Ampitheatre, situated
on Washington street near Main, will be
opened to the public today with grand
athletic and equestrian tournament, and
| the sword combat on horseback between
the famous swordswoman Jaguarina and
her challenger, Baron Arno Won Fell
itzsch, formerly captain in the Imperial
| Guards of Germany. The we'll
earned reputation of Jaguarina and her
unsurpassed popularity make this event
the most powerful attraction that could
! have been secured for the opening of this
new pleasure resort of the public. In
addition to the combat there will be a
great variety of other sports. notably a
series of fine athletic competitions, in
GLIDING rs yards running race, pole
vaulting, broad jumping, wide jumping,
hop, step aud jump and other games.
There will also be series OF equestrian
competitions and humorous perform
ance which will no doubt put everybody
in a good humor. The widely popular
puzzle, "Pigs in the Clover" will be done
in reality-four lively pigs will take the
place of marbles, and lath inclosure on
the plan OF the celebrated puzzle will
be placed ia the middle of the field.
Ten minutes will be allowed to each am
bilious solver of the problem to try his
skill. He will be given buggy whip to
do the "shooiDg" with and he will get
$40 if he puts all four pigs in the pen in
side OF the time limit. 1t is easy to i'm
agine the amount of sport to be gotten
out OF this feature. 1t is certainly the
strongest and beat arranged programme
OF outdoor sports ever gotten up in this
part OF the world, and if indications go
for anything there will be an immense
concourse Of spectators.
The handsome grounds are admirably
arranged for this class of entertainments
and at once convince the spectator that
the improvements made have been
planned by person OF vast experience.
The gates will be opened to-day at 80
and the signal for the first event will be
given at 2;30 p. m. Special provision
has been made for the comfort and con-
venepce of ladies and children, and the
utmost care will be exercised by the
management that nothing unpleasant
will occur to mar the enjoyment of the
public. 1t may please many people to
know chat no bar or drinking place ia
either on the premises or connected
herewith.

The name of Richard See, char ed
with murder, appears on the books Of
the County Jail, and See himself, g
large, strong man a little past the mid
die OF life, is imprisoned IN the middle
tank of that institution. Detective w
Fl. Russell brought him down from
EIlensburg, w. t., where he has been
living for sometime.
The murder of Bill Duncan, with
which See is charged, took place in the
Ell Monte saloon in April, 1871,
eighteen years ago. There was
a quarrel of old standing between
the parties and their relatives. Duncan
is said to have been very bad man who
was accustomed to do little killing
himself now and then.
Lee declined to say anything about the
case other than that he had no doubt he
would manage to get clear. He says he
could have escaped dozen times il he
had wished TO do 80.
Friends of the murdered man have
urged the arrest and prosecution of Lee.
1t is said that all the principal witnesses
to the affair are still alive and ready to
testify. The trial will be something very
decidedly out of the common run.

In speaking of this company the Phila-
delphia Press says;
johnson & Slavin's minstrels are so
much better than all of their kind seen
here before that they may be classed as
a new species. The grotesque, in which
broad horseplay usually predomi-
mates, is here 80 carefully refined that it
flavors and renders pungent the perfor-
nance, ami leaves ample room for the
graceful and artistic, the melodious and
the beautiful. Rarely has an audience
been better entertained, and with more
unbroken continuance from beginning to
end. The singing was excellent, the
music new the solo voices remarkably
good and cultivated, the costumes OF
notable variety and exceeding richness,
and the entire entertainment of most
praiseworthy quality.
