Hsviin's Theatre

During this week Happy Cal Wag- ner's Minstrel company are at Haylin's South Side theatre. The organization is an excellent one. It is em mpaatically genuine minstrel company and not . conglomerAtion of variety acts. The negro character in It's varied forms has been freely illustrated and described In the current literature of the day, but 1t is being neglected by mod ern minstrelsy. That an element % full of the humorous and picturesque has attracted 60 little attention is sur prising. The days of slavery are long passed, but the negro's curious and peculiar dialect, quaint and homely humor, poetic imagination, air of inn portance and ludicrous efforts at fine language, are the same to-day In the far south as when, in its palmy days, he had no thought beyond his duties to "massa and missus."
 Beginning at HAvlin's theatre, Sum- day matinee, October 9th, for one week, Bartley Campbelrs great melo- drama, "The White Slave" with its wealth of realistic scenery and great cast.

CONVICTED OF ASSAULT.
A Case which Occurred Near santa
Anita.

Judge Mckinley and a jury, in Depart
ment of the Superior Court yesterday,
we're occupied in the trial of Isiano
Roias, Mexican youth about II years
old, who was charged with having as.
saulted Mrs. Pauline Wiegand with in.
tent to commit rape, on the 9th day Of
May last. near Santa Anita. The COM
plainant's account of the affair, in effect,
was as follows:
On the morning of the day in question
she left her home, short distance from
the Santa Anita Rancho, to visit her
friend Mrs. Schweitzer, the wife of the
foreman of the ranch, and while crossing
a small bridge across an arroyo, was
struck down from behind by blow on
the dead, dealt by some unseen hand.
She fell on her face, but quickly at
tempted to rise. While doing SO she was
again hit on the head, and fell once
more. In rising the second time, she
turned round, determined to see who
her assailant was; when Rojas struck
her with his fist on the mouth, hurl-
ing her violently backwards. AS she
fell for the third time, Rojas sprang upon
her and pinned her to the ground, his

Charged with Robbery.

Police Judge M. T. Owens yesterday
arraigned a youth named Henry Will
Jams upon charge of robbery, and set
his examination for Thursday next at 2
p. m. He is charged, with five other
youths, with having knocked down
Henry Gay, bookkeeper in the employ
of Messrs. G. W. Gibson & Company,
12l North Los Angeles street, on satur.
day night last, in front of the saloon on
the corner of Marchessault and New
High streets, and robbed him of $6S in
cash and notes. Williams was arrested
by Detective Gleason Sunday last
con suspicion" and was identified by
Day as one of his assailants. The COM
plainant accompanied detectives Jen-
nings and Wallin yesterday afternoon
upon tour round the city, and pointed
out j. P. Donegan and J. @. Jewell on
the corner of Second and Spring streets
about 3 80 o'clock, as two more. They
were taken to the station and searched,
when it was found that both had $40 in
their pockets. Five minutes afterwards
Wallin brought in Harry Howard, who
was taken into custody on Second street,
between Main and Spring streets, on
Days identification. He had $42 rs in
his pockets. All three we're locked up,
and the search was continued; but up TO
late hour last night no further arrests
had been made.

left hand at her throat. A struggle en-
sued during which Roj as grip upon her
windpipe relaxed sufficiently to allow
her to scream. Mr.. and Mrs. Schweitzer,
whose home is but few hundred yards,
heard the shrieks and ran out to discover
their cause, arriving at the bridge just
as Rojas got up and ran away. Mrs.
Wiegand by this time was completely
exhausted. and blood was flowing from
her mouth. Her hair and dress were
disarranged, and she was covered with
dust and dirt. She was carried to the
Schweizer cottage, and was physically
unable to return to her home until six or
seven hours later. In the meantime Roias
had been captured at his fathers shanty.
The latter part of this testimony was
fully corroborated by MIS-. Schweitzer,
who positively identified Rojas as the
youth who got up and ran away from the
place when she and her husband ap-
preached the other end of the bridge.
Mr.. Schweitzer also identified the de-
fendant, and corroborated the previous
statements; but on cross-examination
the defense attempted to prove that the
witness was violently prejudiced against
Rojas and had driven him away from
the Santa Anita ranch without cause.
This closed the case for the prosecu-
ton, and the defense tried to prove an
alibi by the defendants father, and two
other Mexicans, who told different stories
about Rojas calling at the Chapman
rancho in search of employment on the
day in question and his returning home
by an opposite route to the one taken by
Mrs. Wiegand. The jury in less than
five minutes returned verdict of guilty,
and the Court instructed the defendant
to appear for sentence on Thursday next.

How the Wool Moves.

Night before last two special trains of
wool passed through this city by the
Southern Pacific on the way to the East
via New Orleans. The night before that
one train of the same kind passed.
Each train numbers twenty cars, and
each car carries twenty-five tons Of wool.
These sixty cars, therefore, we're loaded
with 800 tons of wool. That is 3.000,-
900 pounds of wool. If the wool is
worth only 121a cents pound the three
trains were worth 1875, 900, or sl25, 900
for each trainload. The total clip of the
State of California is about 10000, 900
pounds, and at the rate given above it
brings into the State $5 100000

WHAT Is IT2
The SAN Diego and Eastern Ter.
minaI Railway.

The San Diego and Eastern Ter
minal Railway.
Last night there arrived in San Diego
two engines and two passenger cars,
marked "San Diego and Eastern Ter
minal Railway" The conundrum here
was what it meant, and why this rolling
stock should arrive before there is rail
laid on any such road. A little inquiry,
however, elected the information that
the Messrs. Carlson & Graves some time
ago obtained franchise for a road
named as above. The roadbed is partly
graded along the water front, between
National City and San Diego, and there
is good deal of steel and
of ties on the ground for the
road. To hold the franchise twenty
miles of the road must be completed and
operated this fall, and this rolling stock
is for this purpose. The road parallels
the Santa Fe, and there are two motor
roads also along the water front. Some
time ago the Santa Fe got an injunction
against the further building of the road
between the tracks of that corporation
and the water, and that injunction has
been made perpetual. 1t is also stated
here that the Council of San Diego is
open in the announcement that they
will not grant wharf franchises to
this company. Some conjecture
that the road is intended to hold fran
chise with the view of selling to the
Southern Pacific if that road seeks San
Diego. That is generally looked upon
as long ways off by the Southern Paci-
fic people.
The statement is also made here that
the engines and cars which reached San
Diego yesterday are old stock procured
at some Eastern point.

Found Dead In His Chair in the
Office.
F. W. Nichols has been for some time
tie Santa Fe agent at Wildomar, sta
tion beyond Cotton, on the San Diego
line. Yesterday some one entering the
Office on business was surprised to find it
all SO still. Investigation resulted in q
ghastly discovery. In his office
chair, near the telegraph key, sat the
agent as cold as a stone. Approaching
the body, it was found that a pistol lay
on the floor, one chamber empty, and in
the body of the deceased was found q
hole, out of which the life.blood had
flowed.
There is no doubt Nichols committed
suicide, and the cause is copjectured to
be a shortage in his accounts, although
the amount could not be at all large.

Roe x Lyon, managers Of the Louisville
Branch Office OF the Equitable Life AS
surance Society of New York, publish in
our advertising columns, from the official
reports, tho percentage Of death claims TO
the mean amount Of life assurance policies
in force in Kentucky for those companies
which have been represented in this State
during the longest period OF years, show
ing the ratio Of each company annually
and the average Of each company for four
years.
Tho record OF the Equitable is one of
which neither the company nor the man.
ayers for Kentucky and Tennessee can well
be too proud.
II was said by many that the incon,esti-
bio clause, introduced into all its policies
in 1879 by the Equitable, would materially
increase its death rate. Experience seems
10 have demonstrated that those assuunis
who have most reasons 10 hope for long
life, have preferred the incontcsliblc poll.

Roc d Lyon have represented the Fguit-
able for over twenty-throc years without a
single liiigated death claim in Kentucky
or Tennessee, where the application was
written by either Of them or by an agent
OF their appointment. With such record
OF unvarying good faith, IL is not surpris.
ing that the increasing volume OF their
business Is unparalleled.
