instead of Obeylng the command, he
thrust his hands in either side pocket

A GOOD POLICY
To Be Followed by the Democratic
Alliance,

Alliance.
The executive committee of the Dem
ocratic Alliance met yesterday afternoon
in the Downey block for the purpose Of
making the necessary arrangements for
fitting up their new quarters. DIR.
Joseph Kurtz called the meeting to
order, and stated that the intention Of
the executive committee was to see that
the club was thoroughly organized and
that the class of Democrats who were
members of the alliance would take an
active hand in the coming contests, and
that there should not be any of the dis
graceful scenes enacted again that were
so apparent at the recent primaries.
Ex-Mayor w. H. Workman also said
that it was high time that such prac-
tices were sat down upon. A repetition
of such outrages would be fatal to the
success of the Democratic party
in this city and county. He
felt, however, that the material
which composed the Democratic
Alliance would be strong enough to eff
fectually stamp out such disgraceful
practices in the future, and place the
party and its standard-bearers in a
strong position before the public.
Acting Secretary E. G. Taylor re-
ported little over $400 on hand and
about as much again standing out
which could be collected readily when
the club was in good working order.
On motion of John P. Moran the fit
ting-up of the quarters were left to
Hon. w. H. Workman, DR.. Joseph
Kurtz and G. f. Dickson. 1t was de-
cided to have a meeting next Wednes-
day evening, and at that time the regu-
lar meeting night OF the club will be

tice Savage.
At IL o'clock Miss Latta, who had
been confined in the county Jail during
the night, was brought before the town
ship justice for arraignment, Henry T.
Gage acting as her counsel. She was
extremely cool and self-possessed. The
prisoner, who is somewhat deaf, re-
quested to read the complaint herself.
She had nothing to say in reference to
the matter. Justice Savage set her ex-
animation for 10 O'Clock tomorrow, and
remanded her to Jail without bail.

"Things are very quiet in San Fran

there, except politics; they are pretty
lively, and will get livelier."
''What did you hear up there about

"Hear? Why, nothing. Why, when
you get up there you would never know
that Los Angeles was on the map. Those
fellows up there don't figure much on

THE FULL TERM.
Cassulo to be Incarcerated for Ten
Years at Folsoms

CaSSulo to be lncarcerated Tor Len
Years at Folsoms
Yesterday being the time set for the
sentencing of Giovanni Cassulo, found
guilty of the manslaughter of Emanuel
Valerga, whom he had stabbed in the
groin, the prisoner was brought before
Judge Mckinley. The deceased was
killed by Cassulo during carouse in
which claret formed the inebriating
staple, and for very fimsy motive.
The court gave the prisoner the full
term allowed by law, ten years in the
Folsom penitentiary. Several respecta-
BILE citizens of this city, of Italian ex-
traction, said that the sentence is a just
one, and that it was blessing Cassulo
was out of the way because he was a
bad man, with violent temper, who
would probably have become involved i'll
other difficulties if his career had not
been cut short by the courts.

HENRY, WILLIE AND HERMAN
Tire of Travelling and Try to Get
Home.

While collecting tickets on the train
from Santa Monica yesterday morning,
Conductor John P. Bassett discovered
three Juvenile stowaways on one of the
cars. They were taken into the baggage
car and questioned, when it was learned
that their names and ages were, respect
lively, Henry Lawler, 10; Willie Lundy,
z, and Herman "Dutchy," also Z. The
two younger boys stated that Lawler
had induced them to accompany him to
the beach on Tuesday morning, and act
ing under his guidance they had boarded
the noon train, and successfully eluding
the eagle eye of the ticket-puncher,
reached Santa Monica without trouble.
After wandering about the beach all day
they concluded to return home, but
found that there was no train, the last
having left at 3 AS o'clock. Hungry
and tired, they wandered about until
dark, when good samaritan
took them into his tent and gave them
supper and blankets. They left their
harbor OF refuge early yesterday morn
ing, however, without waiting for break
fast, as they feared that they might be
turned over to the officers, and watched
for an opportunity to slip into one of the
cars OF the first train. In this, however,
they were disappointed, as the trainmen
were moving up and down in the cars;
and they were forced to wait until the
train returned at 1880 O'Clock, when
they slipped on board unnoticed.
Mr.. Bassett having seen an item in
the HERALD regarding the disappearance
of Willie Lu hy, turned the trio over to
BaggagemanJack Manning, who, after
reading the boys lecture anent running
away from home, made them happy in
his genial way, until they arrived at the
Arcade depot, when they were taken to
the police station to await the arrival of
their parents.
