rest of James Brea, an old-time resident
of East Los Angeles, on a complaint
sworn to by Mrs. Stella Mclaughlin, who
resides at A Hayes street, charging him
with drawing and exhibiting deadly
weapon in rude, angry and threaten
ing manner in the presence of women
and children. 1t appears from the story
of the complaining witness, Mrs. Nc
Laughlin, that for some time past her
dog has, in the exuberance of his juven-
lie animal spirits, been in the habit of
running after Brea's chickens, much to
their owners disgust. Although she did
everything in her power to curb the ami
NAL, he continued to chase the chickens
whenever an opportunity occurred, and
finally Brea lost all patience and deter

cred as nuisance. Accordingly he arose

The Boyle Heights people had meet
ing few nights ago, composed of a
dozen or SO, for the purpose of jubilating
over the success of the people in opening
First street, and to form a Board of
Trade. A plan of organization and set
of bylaws were adopted, prohibiting the
introduction of anything religious or
political in the meeting. Soon after the
adoption of the Committee on Organiza-
ton and Bylaws was adopted, man by
the name of Campbell resident, but
not voter-introduced resolution of q
political nature, which was adopted
by said Board of Trade. If the
Boyle Heights Board of Trade is con-
Quoted in the interest of the whole, in
stead ofnthat of few place-hunters, it
may be the means of fostering the COM
mercial and financial interests of that
locality; but it should be free from
politics if any good is to be accomplished.

FLORENCE HARPER.
A Guardian Appointed for Her by
Judge Clark.

Ju08e ClarKs
The matter of the guardianship OF
Florence Harper came up in Judge
Clark's Court yesterday and attracted
considerable attention. 1t will be re-
membered that about year ago the little
girl was found one morning in the Volts
kill orchard, whittier she had fed to es-
cape the cruelty Of her stepmother.
When found two of her ribs were broken,
and there were numbers of bruises on
other parts of her body, which she said
had been inflicted by her stepmother. A
warrant was issued for the arrest of Mrs.
Harper, but she disappeared before it was
served. The little girl has been in better
hands since then land yesterday the mat.
ter of her guardianship came up. On the
witness stand the child told the story oil
the cruelty of her stepmother, and how
she had to run away, after her ribs were
broken, to save her life. After hearing the
evidence offered Judge Clark appointed
Mrs. johanna S. CLARK as her guardian.

GRADING SPECIFICATIONS.



Gravel to Remain.
A few weeks.ago a number Of property
owners appeared before the Council and
stated that they could see no use, when
streets were graded, in carting away good
gravel and then carting back the same,
or other gravel of poorer quality. There
were some localities in the city, they
said, where the streets as laid out had
natural gravel beds, and it was useless
expense to dig it up and carry
it away, as was necessary under the
existing specifications. They asked
that new set Of specifications, allowing
the gravel to remain when pronounced
good by the Street Superintendent, be
prepared. If this was done it would ma
terially lessen the expense of grading and
perhaps more streets would be put in
good order. The Council instructed the
City Engineer to prepare such specifica.
tions, and yesterday the Board of Public
Works recommended that they be
adopted by the Council.

The election Of another member OF the

characteristic of the earlier years of govern

for revival OF early manners and customs

well-known preparations for the cure OF
coughs, colds, consumption in its early

Notwithstanding the large amount OF tlme

THE BOARD OF PARDONS.

Important Changes in the Jurisdlc-
 tton of That Body. %8
 The bill regarding the board of pardons passed by the senate the other day differs materially from the measure which was urged upon the general assembly during the Swift excitement. The bill vests the whole power of pardons and commuta- tions in the board of pardons. The propo- sition that death sentences may be com muted by two-thirds vote of the board has been abandoned, and the board must be a unit in this, as in all other cases of the exercise of clemency. An important feature of the bill is that it dispels doubt as to the construction of the statutes, by confering upon the board absolute jurisdiction ill capital cases, subject, of course, as all cases must be, to an appeal to the highest court of the commonwealth, the general assembly. Another change of the pres ent statute, which is in the interest of justice, is clause providing that if the judit ial member of the board shall have tried case, or if any member of tn board shall have expressed an opinion upon it, such member shall be disqual- flied to act upon that case.

KATE coBB.s THREAT.
A Scare for the Judge Who Senten-
 S.ad Her to Prison.

cod Her to Prison.
 An interesting story is told of Judge J. D. Park, the late chief justice of the state, who was only few weeks ago re- lieved of judicial duty, he having passed the age limit of three score and ten. He presided at the trial of Mrs Kate Cobb, the murderess, and during his charge and the sentence his language was not intended to please Mrs Cobb and her friends. It is said that the unhappy woman said before she was sent to state prison: "I am guiltless, God knows, of the murder of poor Charlie, whom l shall some day meet in heaven: but l am human enough to say 1 could give that old judge a dose of poison with a good stout heart"
 This despairing utterance of the pris- oner was reported to the judge, who l later had occasion to remember her re- | mark.
 l Both Kate Cobb and Wesley Bishop went to state prison for life. Mrs Cobb was made sort of useful woman around the matrons kitchen. and as she was d good cook she became, in time, almost a part of the wardens household. Her prison dress very much resembles a tidy gingham and she re- tains much of her youthful beauty. Whenever there is a dinner given to the state officials, as often happens, she waits on the table with perfect grace, never speaking unless spoken to. She has singularily soft and pleasing voice ar d althogether her position in the prison is made as pleasant as possible for her. Bishop has to perform the hardest and most menial tasks, and it is said he is cordially despised and hated by the officials and his fellow convicts.
 A few months ago several of the state officials, Judge Park among the number, dined with the warden of the prison. As the story goes, Mrs Cobb, as usual, waited on the table. Judge Park had at the moment forgotten that there was ever such person in the world as Kate NJ. Cobb. He complimented the warden upon his tidy, neat-handed Phyllis, and remarked upon her air of refinement and lady like demeanor.
 "Dou't you know that woman :! asked the warden. You ought tC know her. That is Kate Cobb, whom you sentenced to state prison for life ter years ago, up at Norwich"

All veterans of the Connecticut Ma tional guard can hereafter be recognized ill the same manner as the members of the Grand Army-by the insignia of the button. An enthusiastic member of Co B, the Sedgwick guard, of the Fourth regiment, has invented button to be worn on the lappel of the coat. It is both neat and ornamental. The ground work is of blue enamel with Veteran Conn N. G." in guilt letters above, and below the coat of arms of the state. The medal can also be made to serve as scarf pin. It is the intention of the in ventor to have several hundred of them made for use at the next encampment of the National guard at Mantle and to distribute them among those who have served five years or more in the four regiments of the Fifth battalion. Efforts will also be made to have it adopted by the quartermaster-genera as state but ton, and whenever a man has served five years ill the National guard to have one awarded to him.

ARRAN ANG1NG A PRIZE FIGHT.
Arthur Q. Upham. of Norwich. AnN
 ious to Meet James QuiGley.

Arthur Q. Upham, of Norwich. Anx-
 ious to Meet James Quigley.
 Arthur O. Upham, of Norwich, was in New Haven last evening endeavoring to arrange fight with James Quigley, of this city. for S2OO or $500 a side. A match between these men was to have been arranged last Thursday evening, but was not accomplished. It Is to be a middleweight fight for no championship, but rather to settle personal spite be- tween the contestants. The hitch in the arrangements as far as can be learned, grows out of the fact that Quigley wishes to fight at 145 pounds weight. Upham is heavier than this by about five pounds: Upham's packers claim to have deposited S20O forfeit money with Rich ard K. Fox of New York, and that Quig. ley is afraid to cover the money. Quig ley has defeated Edward Mcdonald o1 Brooklyn and has been engaged in sever al other fights. Upham is q Norwich man whose qualities are yet unknown in these parts, although he is said to have acquitted himself with credit ill severa matches in Boston and vicinity.
 Quigley over his own signature writes to the New Haven News ''I was mat ched to fight Upham May 24 for d purse made up by the Gentlc,nen's Athletic club of Waterbury. At the eleventh hour Upham sent letter stating tha the match was off and fought McDon aid knocking him out in the sixth round will meet Upham at 145 pounds fol 1 whatever amount of money he ,al raise. am here in New Haven an, | mean business.
