All About n Co,

Yesterday morning Thomas Williams,
who also goes by the name of Young
Jack McAulife," was arrested at the in.
stance of negro, who said that Williams
had stolen his coat. In the Police Court
yesterday the case was ventilated, and on
the testimony Of the prosecuting witness
the defendant was discharged. The negro,
while on the witness. stand created no
little amusement in reciting his adventures
in the ring. He said he had been induced
by four Irish gentlemen to give an exhibi-
tion of sparriDg in the vicinity of the de-
pot, 1t seems that the only object of the
crowd was to get him TO take off his coat.
which had no sooner been done than they
made way with il, but the witness exonerated
Williams from any intent to steal the gar
ment, and he was discharged.

that is that l am not native son, and if
fortune had SO willed it I should have
acted quite differently to that of our native
sons in the past few weeks, or ever since
the subject of the restoration of Suffers
Fort has been discussed. 1 have waited so
patiently TO see what action they would
take in the premises, but not g word has
been said in behalf of that dear old SPOT
that has so often sheltered our sathers
when they sorely needed it, but we feel
very grateful to yourselves and General
Martlne for the interest you have taken in
this subject which is so dear 70 Us all. and
1 sincerely hope that the matter will not be
dropped, but be agitated until your efforts
shall be crowned with victory. When you
get price on the old fort you can count on
us native daughters toward swelling the
amount OF the purchase money.

Most of Them Strike Out for Home, But
a Few Go Wrong.
At the Park yesterday afternoon the
homing pigeons were set free, according to
the previous announcement, under the
rules of the Homing Pigeon Club. There
were three crates of birds. One contained
seven birds belonging to H. H Carleton,
which were turned loose at 1:2S o'clock.
They scared aloft, cireled about. and at Log!
were out Of sight, going straight for Oakland
Thomas Msgee, Jr., had two crates of birds
the first OF which was opened at 1:3l
o'clock, and the FIVE birds were "streakine
it" for Oakland and out of sight in one
minute and a half. The next lot were
turned loose at 1:3S, and when last seen
were leaving blue streak in the sky as
they sped toward the Sierra Nevada noun
tains. The presumption is that they got 8
sight OF the handsome Secretary of the
Society as they passed the judges stand
and (being lady birds that it turned thei1
heads" At all events, they acted very
queerly for Eoming pigeons.

She will have the same support with which
she played IN her recent long engagement
IN San Francisco. When Margaret Mather
was here last year she won from Sacra-
mento audiences unanimous approval as an
actress of high native ability, while in
grace and beauty it was conceded she has
no successful rival upon the American
stage. Charms of person supplementing
intelligence and devotion 10 dramatic art
make up combination that peculiarly
adapts her to the personation of Shake
speares charming women. Miss Mather
IS, for instance, the ideat Juliet. As The
Cal OF San Francisco well says she makes

that speaks OF close study, and is distiu-
gulshed By rare delicacy of treatment.
MISS Malher will appear here in Romeo
ana Juliet, The Honeymoon" and Leah
the Forsaken plays in which she has
achieved her most signal triumphs. The
Chrontcte OF San Francisco says that since
she was IN California last year Miss Matber
has gained in strength in her method, nota.
bly, IN tragic parts, is more self forgetful.
| more. absorbed by the part assumed. and is
altogether improved as an actress. Her
Lean is pronounced by another San Fran
| cisco paper TO be a work of superb finish,
anc that In this role she reaches the hight
OF her dramatic power, and is equal to
every demand of the trying tragic part. The
box office is to open Monday, and there is
10 be no extra charge for reserving seats,
the prices being 81 and so cents for the
lower and upper sections, respectively.
Standing room only was the word at the

has achieved so great success here, will

cided to annex all that portion of Ana
helm township that will not be included
in the county of Orange to Los Neitos
Supervisoral district.
A petition was presented for the OPEN
ing OF the Cahuenga road to Santa
Monica. Mr.. Patton verbally objected
to the hearing of testimony on the
ground that the location Of the proposed
road is indefinite and uncertain, and
asked for profile of the road. Colonel
Miller, Mr. Hoffreider, Mr.. Andrads,
Jose Valdez, E. r. Plummer, G. G. Cole,
j. r. Briefly and Andrew S. Lay were
sworn and examined. On motion of Mr..
Rowan, the matter was taken under con-
sideration.

the boundaries of the Supervisoral dis
tricts were adopted:
WHEREAS, The Board of Supervisors of Los
Angeles county is authorized by Section 16
of IAN Act to Establish a Uniform Sys-
tenn of County and Township Governments F" to

tain the population of the difereu ut townships
OF the county is the vote cast at the last general
election, aud it appesring that the total number
OF votes cast in Los Angeles county, after de-
ducting the votes cast in that portion of said

in session at the time, it was found inn
prScticable to use the room over the
vault in the City Auditors Office for the
purpose anticipated, and the Council
Chamber being occupied by the Board OF
Equalization, precluded the idea OF hold
ing a meeting there. Messrs. Dexter,
Knox and Lindley took up their stand at
the head of the stairs leading to the plat
form over the city vault, and Temporary
Chairman Dexter called the meeting to
order. On motion of Mr.. Knox, seconded
bv Mr.. Lindley, Officer Fay, who was
suspended for arresting Superintendent
J. G. Robinson, of the Gable Company,

stated upon the force and recess was
then taken until p. m. Monday, when
