Rumor has it that there will be some
thing OF interest in a few days in con-
nection with the order of Judge Wade
requiring Sheriff Gibson to furnish his
court room on the fourth floor of the
court house building.
Ever since the order was made public
the board of supervisors has maintained
an ominous silence, and individual
members of that august body when
sought out by a HERALD reporter in
search for information regarding the po-
sition of the board in the matter, re-
piled to all questions ''The board has
no knowledge of the order"
While the board has had no official
knowledge concerning the order, every
member is fully informed as to its pur-
port, and it is said that the position
taken by Judge Wade has been very
freely discussed. From good authority
it is learned that something will drop in
few days, and great amount OF spec
ulation is being INDUCED in as to what
the sheriff, the Los Angeles Furniture
company and the board of supervisors
will do.
JuuSe Wdut is quietly dWaitiHS Tue
furnishing of his new quarters, and will
welcome the day the room is ready for
occupancy. Sheriff Gibson will follow
out his order to the letter. He has
nothing to do but obey instructions, and
as recent decision of the supreme
court OF this state, in a parallel
case in San Francisco, makes Judge
Wade's position tenable, there are
number OF people who have expressed
the opinion that there is nothing for the
board OF supervisors to do but to look
on.
The plans for furnishing the room,
which were prepared by Architect
Brown, of this city, and presented to the
supervisors some time ago for approval,
were hauled out by the sheriff yesterday
and examined, but no order has yet
been given for the furniture.

THOSE QUIEScENT CLOCKS.
The Court House Time Still at Stand
still.

Still.
The board of supervisors yesterday
decided to allow Contractor Brady sixty
days further time to place the electric
clock system in order, and ii the clocks
do not work satisfactorily at the expira-
ton of that time, Mr.. Brady will be
required to furnish system OF clocks
that will keep time.
The resolution passed by the board Of
supervisors had the effect of bringing
Mr.. Henzel, to whom Mr.. Brady sublet
the clock contract, post haste from San
Francisco. Both he and Mr.. Brady
were at the court house yesterday, and
with several expert electricians engaged
by the supervisors, made an inspection
of the system.
Mr.. Henzel and his representatives
contend that the clocks viii go all right.
Everybody who is employed in the
court house hopes SO, but grave doubts
are entertained as to the time. keeping
qualities of the system as it now stands.
The supervisors agreed to give the
contractor one more chance, after hear
ing the report of the local experts.
What that report contained is known
only to the gentlemen who compose the
board. and they declined to make it
public. 1t is the general opinion, how
ever. that the report was anything but
favorable to the system. The clocks
will start up today, provided there are
no cross-currents, etc., to tangle up the
machine.

The Body of Young Man Found at

Santa Monica's Beach.
Coroner Weldon went to Santa Mon
lea yesterday to hold an inquest on the
body of man which was found in the
water yesterday afternoon at about 2
o'clock. The body was that OF young
man respectfully but not elegantly
dressed. There was $3.4O in one pocket
and in another some papers which were
taken charge of by the coroser.-s as-. ,--r
A peculiar feature of The affair was
that the face of the cadaver was badly
confused, and blood was flowing from
fhe nostrils and ears. This was ex-
planned by some on the theory that the
body had been bruised against the piles
OF the wharf by the waves, but against
this theory was the fact that the break
ers were very small and broke beyond
the end OF the pier.
1t was expected that the coroner
would be back last evening with parti-
culars, but he staid at Santa Monica all
night.

apoplexy. He suffered the fatal stroke at
some time between II O'Clock last night and

in his study wh-n the attack came
on. Mrs. Armstrong was with him In the
earlier part OF the evening, but an hour be-
fore midnight retired, leaving her husband
engaged in the preparation OF lecture on
Hamlet. Four hours later she awoke, and
finding that the doctor had not come 10 bed
went Ia search or him.
THOUGHT HE WAS ASLEEP.
He was found lying on lounge near the
table at which she had left him, and the first
suggestion was that he had thrown himself
down for a moment in fit OF weRrines and
had aftsrward accidentally fallen asleep. On
drawing near, however, Mrs. Armstrong
was alarmed to note the sleeper's heavy
breathing. Hastily she attempted to arouse
him. All efforts failed, aud the lady. frantic
with fear, gave the alarm and phyncians
wero summoned.
They found the patient past help The
pressure OF blood cluts upon the brain rem
dsred his unconscicunness too deep to be
disturbed, and although 10 the effect of
some Of the stimulants administered the

mentarily respond, there was no material
change for the better up to q few minutes
before o'clock this afternoon, when the
heart ceased beating.
