A WIFE'S WRONGS.
She Tells Them at the StatiOn-Her
Husband Arrested.

Husband Arrested.
About 7 80 O'Clock last evening mid
die aged woman, who appeared to be in
great distress, called upon Chief of Po-
lice Glass at his Office, and demanded
protection from her husband. She stated
that her name was Mrs. L. M. Nichol-
son, and that she was the proprietor of a
lodging house at No. 259 North
Main street. Her husband, she
said, was a wor thless fellow, who
refused to work, an d whenever
an opportunity occurred, got drunk and
abused her. Last evening he went home
intoxicated, and because she refused to
crafty his drunken whims, he grabbed
her by the throat and threw her down.
He then beat her with his fists unmerci-
fully, and as this was only one of many
such occurrences, she determined to have
him arrested, in order that he might be
restrained from doing her further vio-
lence, and perhaps killing her. She
further stated that Nicholson had been
executing such little diversions at fre-
quent intervals ever since their marriage
in Arizona fourteen years ago. She had
never complained before, as she was
afraid that he would kill her, but she was
resolved not to bear it any longer, and
would prosecute him to the full extent of
the law.
After listening patiently to the recital
Of her wrongs, Chief Glass dispatched
the patrol wagon for the recreant hus-
band, and promised to hold him in Jail
until Monday, when she could appear to
prosecute him. Nicholson was found to
be already in the custody OF Officer
Stuart, and was brought up to the
81 alton. Instead, However, of being the
wild and wooly Arizonian which his
wife's story had led the authorities to
expect, Nicholson turned out to be q
very meek and mild medium-sized indi-
vidual.

captured, and proved to be the Officer OF
the Day.
The Relief Corps mustered in full force
at o'clock yesterday afternoon at head
quarters, when they received instruc-
tions to prepare for campaign against
the Grand Army detachment, that Friday
afternoon ignominiously placed mem bers
of the Relief Corps under arrest and
paraded them as prisoners of war. The
Amazonisn brigade carried out the plan
of campaign adopted, and got even with
the "vets" in great shape.
The exercises at the pavilion, last
night, consisted of volunteer pro-
gramme. Although it was an impromptu
selves very creditably. After the liter
ary exercises the hall was cleared for a
dance.
The pavilion is now completed; a
piano has been secured and good dance
music is furnished. These entertain
ments and balls will be of nightly
occurrence.
Divine services will be held today. con-

The grounds were very dusty yester-
day at noon, at which time stiff land
breeze was blowing. 1t is hoped the
sprinkling cart will again be called into

IN THE CITY.
Lauterio, Formerly Deputy
Auditor, Captured.
ACCOUNT OF A POLO GAME.
The Santa Monica Club Defeats the
Los Angeles-RepOrt of the
Finance Committee.

To Sheriff Seymour, of San Bernardino
county, belongs the honor of having
made one of the most important arrests
in local criminal circles, of the year.
This officer accompanied by one of his
deputies, j. Smith, of the Needles, ar
rived in this city on the $50 train from
San Bernardino with Frank Lauterio,
the missing ex.Deputy County Auditor,
who was indicted by the Grand Jury for
misappropriation of the county's
funds some seven weeks ago.
Lauterio was recognized upon
the train by several of the passengers
who resided in Los Angeles, and the
news of his arrest soon spread. A HER
AID reporter at once paid a visit to the
County Jail to verify the report; but 1t
was not until II :15 o'clock that Lauterio
was taken there. In the meantime the
officers and their prisoner had been in
consultation with Captain Thornton in
his Office, and Captain Darcy had driven
out in buggy to hunt up Sheriff Aguirre.
What the result of that consultation was
could not be ascertained, as up to q
late hour neither Captain Thornton
nor Martin Aguirre had shown up.
Lauterio when interviewed refused to
make any statement; and Sheriff Sey-
mour stated that he had given his word
to Capt Thornton not to say anything
upon the subject.
1t was however learned that Lauterio
was arrested in the DEVILS Cafion, San
Bernardino county, where he has resided
for the past thirteen days in lonely
cabin hidden in in the brush. He is al
legged to have stated that Martin Aguirre,
while hunting for him, passed within
200 feet of his residence a few days ago
and was seen by Lauterio, though the
latter was unseen by the Sheriff.

and Strasburg made demand for $500
on contract. 1t was reported back TO

ImpOrtant Visitors.

A large party OF Kansas City capital

ISIDORA SAILS.
She Is Convicted of an Assault with
q Deadly weapon.


Deadly weapon.
The case of the people against Isidora
Sails, charged with an assault with a
deadly weapon, is an old one. The
crime was committed months ago, and
has dragged along in the courts until
yesterday, when it was tried before
Judge Cheney. The testimony went to
show that at baila held at "Nigger
Browns" place, at San Pedro, where a
very questionable crowd had gathered to
make night hideous, two of the women,
the defendant, Mexican woman named
Isidora Sails, and Rose Ames got into a
difficulty. Rose is big woman, of per-
haps 26 years of age, six feet tall and 200
pounds weight. She looks as if her NOR
ais were as tough as her muscles. Isl
dora is short, stout, elderly woman,
with great deal of Indian blood in her
veins. The Mexican was standing in the
doorway, and Rose, wishing to pass,
found her steps impeded by the woman
An alteration took place, and isidora
passed out into the yard. Rose followed
her and attacked her. The two fell, the
big white elephant on top. She pun
meled the Sails woman for a while,
when the caller at the dance attempted
to take Rose off. At this point, the boss
of the den, who rejoices in the name Of
"Nigger Brown" interfered and said
''Let Rose alone, let her give her good
thrashing." The under dog in the fight
then drew a knife and cut the Ames
women two or three times in the arm.
The jury found the Sails woman guilty of
an assault with a deadly weapon, and
she will be sentenced next Monday.
San Pedro might do worst than to sup
press the whole den, and drive out all
its inmates. "Nigger Brown" himself
would be an ornament to many an insti-
tution

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, July IA lew DAYS
ago the county surveyor advertised for bids
for the building of eighteen bridges. Inc
bids were opened last Saturday and though
about twenty in number there was little DIFF
ference. The county court was at once
struck with the idea that a combination was
in force and promptly rejected all the bids.
1t has since been learned that there is
trust among the bridge builders for the
purpose of keeping prices at the maximum.
The territory embraced by the trust Is
Southern Iowa and Nebraska, northern Kan
sas, and northwestern Missouri. There is
hardly bridge builder of any note in this
territory who does not belong to the trust.
Regular meetings are held and scale OF
prices agreed upon. A bond is given by
each member, providing a severe penalty
fox any violation of the agreements. The
secretary is consulted in the event OF a
dispute. Every bridge builder in the terri
tory is solicited to join the trust, and if he
re uses a systematic q warfare Is be-
gun on him. which usually ends IN a
victory for the trust. When bidding is to
be done the builders who are to do it meet
and agree on a set of prices. The trusts said
to have membership of about l5O.

THE PERSIAN MINISTER.
Queer Freaks of HadJi Hossein
Ghooly Khan.

Queer Freaks of Hadji Hossein
ChOOly Khan.
WASHINGTON, D. c., July 12.-It is per-
haps unfortunate for Hadji Hossein Ghooly
Khan, Persian minister to the American
capital. that he had not had wider worldly
experience before he was accredited by the
Shah to represent Persia in the United
States. Since the publication of his touch
ing defense of his noble sovereign there
have been some statements by people who
60 in society that go far toward explaining
his disappearance from polite circles. Ow.
ing perhaps. to his lack of familiarity with
our usages, it is related that he became
interested in the society of women who do
not live in the fashionable northwest, and
that, having obtained stock of express
sions current with them as festive politeness
he took the liberty of tweaking by the nose
lady whom he met at a reception, and
remarking upon the dimensions of the
"bugle" she had got on her. In his playful
Persian way he is also said to have greeted
some of the surprised ladies of Washington
society, by prodding them in the ribs with
his thumbs. These stories are attributed to
people of such excellent reputation and
such freedom from malice as to justify the
the impression that the Persian minister's
education for western service had not been
completed when he was sent from Teheran
to Washington.

More British Gold.

MINNEAPOLIS, July 13.-The Northwestern
Miller, says editorially: "We announced in
our issue of May "a that the rumor which
was current to the effect that an English
syndicate was figuring to purchase several
of the large mills in Minneapolis and COM
bine them into one corporation, was not en-
tlrely unfounded in fact. An option on
several valuable plants has been given to
certain fnanciers, representing outside cap
ital. The properties included in the proposed
syndicate are those of C. A. Pillsbury & Co.,
the Washburn Flouing Mills company, the
east and west side powers and the Pillsbury
system of elevators. This would give the
purchasers combined capacity of 1900
barrels of -four per day, the control of the
water power and valuable elevetor system.
For some time past accountants sent to
Minneapolis have been examining the books
OF the various establishments included in
the deal and verifying the statements of the
mlllers as to their profits. Should the deal
be consummated c. A. Pillsbury will man
age the entire business which will be capital

Constitution Makers.

Sioux FALLS, S. D., July 15.-About
three-fourths of the delegates met and ad-
journed after half hours session. The

fort to reconsider the action of the conven-
ton regarding the memorial to the president
asking the withholding of patents to claim
ants who have placed mineral filings upon
school lands in the agricultural districts ad-
joining to the large towns and cities. The
motion was tabled.
OLYMPIA, w. T. July 15.-In the conven-
ton large number of petitions and reso-
lutons were introduced. Among them was
one sig ed by 594 men and As women in
favor of woman suffrage. All were appro-
priately referred. The remainder of the

Desperate Strikers,

P1rTsBURG, Pa, July 15--The strikers
Carnegie's works have full charge of the
town of Homestead, and no one dares in
terfere. Had not deputy sheriffs calmly
and meekly surrendered on their arrival
they would have been mobbed. They were
surrounded by mob of six thousand men
add their badges and clothing almost torn
from their bodies. The strikers are pa
trolling the streets and strangers are COM
PEELED to give an account of themselves or
leave. Pinkerton men on the way have not
yet arrived and the strikers are watching
interesting meeting is expected. They will
go to Homestead with party of 500 men
and will increase it 1900 if necessary. The
men are desperate and affairs look ugly. The
men employed at the other mills not run by
Carnegie, are considering the advisability
of quitting work if the strike is not settled.
This would increase the number of strikers
by several thousand.
