Centuries Old.

A clock that bespoke the hours to
John Knox, Of Scotland. three centu-
ries ago has come into view in the
town OF Huntington, Pa. where it re-
mains the property Of n lineal descend
ant OF the Scotch reformer The clock
was built in 1860 for Knox in Paisley,
Scotland and it was handed down from
generation to generation for $50 years
before it finally came into the posses
sion of John Whitherspoon. John
Witherspoon, No. 2. took the old relic
to America when he accepted the Pres
idency of Princeton College. This
signer of the Declaration of Independ-
ence stipulated that the clock should
always go to the first born of each sue
ceeding generation, which accounts
for the present ownership of John
Knox eighty-feet time-piecc.

ToUGHS FROM THE NORTH.
They are All to Be Sent to the Whit
tier School.


Chairman Ellert, of the finance COM
mittee, yesterday had conference with
Superior Judges Wallace, Murphy and
Hebbard, and Police Judges Rix and
Worley upon the subject OF committing
to the state reformatory at Whittier,
Los Angeles county, such young offend
ers as have heretofore been sent to the
industrial school, says Thursdays San
Francisco Examiner.
The state law provides that offenders
OF both sexes, between the ages of 10
and 16, may be sent to the Whittier in
stitution.
1t was considered advisable, however,
that there should be no doubt as to the
authority of the city to commit future
offenders to the state reformatory, and
on this point the five judges yesterday
all expressed themselves to the effect
that both the superior and police courts
had full power to make such commit
ments.
On the question of whether or not the
present inmates OF the industrial school
could legally be transferred to the State
institution, no positive views were ex-
pressed, and this part OF the question
was left for the time in allegiance. The
courts will, however, Immediately be-
gin sending to the reformatory such
juvenile offenders as are from this time
called upon for sentence. the judges ex-
pressing themselves yesterday as heart
lily in favor of so doing
In order to effect a saving in the ex-
penses of transportation, it is proposed
to send those committed to Los Angeles
in patches of five or ten.

LIBRARY TRUSTEES.
The Mayor Asked to Declare Director
Hanchette's Office Vacant.


The regular monthly meeting OF the
board of directors OF the Los Angeles
public library was held yesterday, there
being present Directors Davies, Howard,
Severance, and President Dobinson.
Bills to the amount OF $457.62 were
ordered paid.
The librarian, Miss Kelso, reported
that the circulation of books for the
month of July was 16,949, an extraor-
dinary increase, since but one book at a
time is now issued to each person. The
reference room had been patronized by
1169 readers. There had been sold 142
copies of the new finding list during the
week they had been on sale. There were
added to the library during the month
815 books and 15 periodicals. There were
1884 new members registered during the
month under the free system.
The following resolutions were adopted
by the board, motion made by Director
Davies:
Resolved, That in view OF the pro-
tracted absence OF Director Hanchette,
and the improbability of his return,
that the mayor be requested to declare
said position vacant, and to fill the
same.
Resolved, That the president ap-
point committee to draft resolution
expressing the feelings of this board re-
garding the unfortunate disappearance
of Director Hanchette.
The board then adjourned.

Some Interesting Points in the Case
Against tho Terminal Road.
Minor Matters In the

Judge Shaw sat on the bench in
department one yesterday, aftersa vaca-
tion of several weeks spent in the
Yosemite. Judge Smith will begin his
vacation Monday.
The case OF G.. B. Van Steenburg vs..
the Los Angeles Terminal Railway
company was heard before Judge Shaw
yesterday on motion by the defend
ants attorney to strike out portion OF
the third amended complaint. The suit
is one for $4,000 damages, and is
brought by Mrs. Van Steenburg for in
juries suffered by her little daughter, Ida
Belle, by being run over by a ''Cross"
road locomotive on railroad trestle in
the Arroyo Seco about year ago. The
accident, it will be remembered, oc-
Cured during the time OF flood. Mrs. Van
Steenburg and her daughter were walk
ing on the bridge when locomotive
came upon them suddenly and Mrs.
Van Steenburg saved her life by jumping,
the little girl being run over and losing
both limbs.
The complaint alleges that the railroad
had given pedestrians the right to use
the bridge, and that therefore the child
was not a trespasser. The defense moved
to strike out the clause stating the above
fact, but the motion was denied. The
following words, however, were struck
out as irrelevant and immaterial "That
said bridge was the only way, save by
another railroad bridge of like kind
within half mile Of the same, by
which foot passengers could cross the
said Arroyo Seco, which at the time of
said injury and for long time prior
thereto had a large stream of water flow
ing therein"

George Woods and G. Van Norman,
two OF the seven boys who were arrested
for stealing gunny sacks from Williams
& Davis's ranch on New Main street.
and who pleaded guilty to:the charge,

posed a sentence of ninety days
each in the county Jail, but

havaior, warning the boys that he would
show them no consideration if they were
again brought before him. Neither Of
the young culprits live in the city, but
both promised to return to their homes
and reform.
