geles to Whittier, as follows: Two at
80, one at 10. one at 1880 and one at

The people of Whittier and the Los
Nietos valley are arranging to give din
ner to the members of the National

tables to seat 1000 people at time, and
have arranged perfect system Of wait

be served as rapidly as possible.
AS there will probably be 10000 peo-

Some persons suggested to Mr.. Tod
hunter, proprietor of the Norwalk Os-
trich Farm, that he could make some
money by exhibiting his birds at Whit
tier on that day, but Mr.. Todhunter said
he would gladly send his birds there for
free exhibition. Mr.. Todhunter, like
many other persons in that section, will
do all he can to give the people pleasant
day.

ments Yesterday.
Cheney, of Department l of the Supe-
rior Court, is still sick and unable to
preside in court. Judge Clark presided
in his place, and the Montana case
coming up for trial, it was passed by
consent to be reset at future date.
J.. F. Bedwell's case came up, and was
put in the trial calendar by stipulation
to be set hereafter.
Then came John E. baltimore, the
negro firebug of San Gabriel valley, for
sentence. This went over until Febru-
ary 18th.
Estella Foster came up on a writ of
habess corpus. She had been ordered
committed to the Magdalen Asylum at
San Francisco, but as the preliminary
steps in the case were taken before
Justice Stanton of the defunct Police
Court, she was set at liberty.
Before Judge Shaw, of Department 6,
who is able to preside after
his hard attack of the grippe, the
case of Pho Pico against B. Cohn
and others came up on demurrer.
This is an interesting story. Years ago
a deed was put on record whereby Pho
Pico conveyed to the late Ben Cohn,
Charles Prayer and W. J. Brodrick the
Pico house property, piece OF prop
erty near the St. Charles hotel and the
Ranchito in Los Nietos valley. The
grantees entered into possession of the
property and enjoyed the rents of the
same. Then after several years the old
Alcalde came with suit to get back the
property. alleging that he had thought
he was signing mortgage for money
borrowed and not a deed of conveyance
The case was tried here and judg-
ment given for the, defendants.
Then a new trial was granted
and that being tried. judgment for de-
PENDANTS was entered again. This was
appealed to the Supreme Court, which
sustained the judgment of the lower
court. Then came a new complaint, in
which the plaintiff alleged that in the
first trial one of the witnesses for the de-
tense testified falsely in matters material
to the issue. To this Cohn's attorney,
Stephen M. White, demurred, on the
ground that the complaint did not set
forth matters sufficient to constitute an
action at law. 1t was ON this the court
ruled yesterday, sustaining the demurrer
and throwing the plaintiff out of court.
Judge Mckinley has gone to Cuca-
monga on visit, and will not return be-
fore Monday.
Lille Sloane was ordered committed to
Stockton, and was taken there yesterday
afternoon.
In the United States Court yesterday
bill in equity was filed, in which Man
uel Jesus Gables sues James A. Girard
and others to eject defendants from cer-
tain land in San Luis Obispo county.
The plaintiff is native Of Chill and lays
claim to 1,100 acres.

COST or ORE HANDLING.
Probability that the PROPOSED
Reduction will be Made.

D1auehVa WAtA SO M@@D
The Virginia Chronicle is authorized
to announce that the proposition for
q reduction Of So in the cost Of hand
ling ore, asked for by J. w. Mackay
and others in behalf of Comstock min
ing companies will in all probability be
accepted by the tunnel, rail-
road and mill companies in
accordance with the terms pub
lished yesterday. The acceptance
OF the proposition will not affect the
miner, as the cut relates to the hand
ling Of ore after it is extracted, nor
will it result in a reduction OF the pay
of mill employees, as n of the best in
formed stamp mill superintendent in
Nevada, called as q witness in the
recent suit of Kentuck Mining Com
pany shareholders vs.. G. G. Stevenson,
stated that ore could be milled profit
ably in the Carson river mills at 50
per ton-one half of the present rate
charged.
If the proposition Of the mining COM
panies is accepted an era of unprece-
dented prosperity will follow in the
Comstock mining industry, as there
are millions OF tons OF low grade ore on
the lode from which the bullion can
be extracted proftably, and twice the
present number of stamps now avail
able will be needed TO crush it, neces-
stating the construction Of more mills
and employment of more than double
the present force OF miners.

Church.

The impressive ceremonies Of Holy
Week were performed in their tradi-
tional mystic details. The Guard OF
Honor at the Repository were punctual
in attendance, and on Saturday the
Mass of the Resurrection, with its
sudden transition from mourning to
Joy, was soul-stirring, the sur shining
forth at the time, while it had been
hidden in clouds the whole morning.
The solemn services Of Easter Sunday
we're attended by a large congregation
morning and evening. The number OF
communicates surpassed that Of many
years past. The choir rendered lovely
and appropriate music. The walls of
the church were decorated with ban
ners and wreaths, and many living
plants made q symmetrical display
around the altar and shrines. The
sermon was an effusion Of circumstan-
tial thoughts, and well appreciated
both by the Catholics and their non
Catholic friends, who were present in
goodly number. Together with
spiritual improvements, some material
ones are noticeable in the church,
which add to the comfort Of the peo-
pie, and for which no pecuniary con-
tribution has been solicited.

Austin Rejoicing over the New
Rates.

The Austin Reveille says G. W.
Hinehcliffe and w. E. West have re-
turned from Salt Lake City, where
they accomplished much for shippers
of low grade ores. Henceforth for all
ores assaying $50 or under, the Samp-
ling Works rate will be $25 off the re-
turns, instead of 1913 as heretofore; or
in other words IS gain to the shipper.
All pres above $50 the rates will be
the same, that is, $33 off the returns.
MI. West says, for example, that with
silver quoted at 95 cents per ounce, he
has figured that so ounce ore will net the
shipper about 500, and go n ore
will net about 500. At this rate, the
low grade ore in and around the camp,
and there are tons of it, can be ship
ped p~roftably, as the above rate OF go
off for $50 ore and under includes
sampling, smelling, and freights from
Clifton.

mentioned for the place he Is honest,
independent and untrameled by any
obligation to, or connected with the

legal or cooperative advice and who
can write his own messages and other
official documents without making an

month ago for $40 sell rapidly for 500

with a view Of ascertaining il the ore
that has been extracted from the

from the Colorado ground or
not. Surveyor Read has been survey.
ing the Colorado mine and the tunnel
Tor the same purpose, as well as TO as
certain what amount of ore has been sx-
tracted from the Colorado ground. What
the result will be We cannot f~oretell,
but steps will probably be taken to
prevent the Tunnel Company from
taking ore fiom any Of the mines the
tunnel penetrates that they do not
own. IL would be a good thing il the
owners Of those mines, and the Pros
pect Mountain Tunnel Company, would
agree to q compromise, and better
still II all Of them were consolidated.
There are several good mines which
could be worked through the Pros
poet Mountain Tunnel, principally the
Silver Common series, Williams
series, Colorado, Avon, Manhattan
Pentier and Cosmos. II all
of these mines were consolidated
with the tunnel, which has penetrated
the mountain for a distance Of 1850
feet, 1t would make a very productive
and a great and valuable property,
particularly il it were to fall into the
hands OF q big incorporated company.
The mines mentioned have yielded a
large amount Of ore, and there are all
the evidences Of great valne and
permanency in them. General Clarke
