PUBLIC WORKS.

The Regular Weekly Tour of the Board
Yesterday Afternoon.
The board of public works made its
regular weekly tour of inspection about
the city yesterday afternoon.
At the corner of Pearl and Second
streets the condition of the thoroughfare
was found to be very bad. The only
way to improve the street will be toraise
the grade several feet and build ive-foot
culvert, but the expense of such an un-
dertaking was considered too great to
contemplate at this time.
The property-owner on First street
want the grade of that street between
Hope and Beaudry changed from one in
ten to one in sixteen. This will prob
ably be done. The Belt Electric road is
now grading at this point, and has
already large amount of work done.
Track-laying will begin in week or two.
The board investigated stream of
water which is flowing across Pearl
street, from pond on the west side of
Fremont avenue. The matter will be
referred to the city engineer for rem
edy.
The open gravel pits on Delong street

considered at the meeting today.
After looking over various minor mat
ters the board returned to the city hall.

CHANGING HIS SPOTS.
SIR CHARLES dixie TRIES TO RE-
ENTER PUBLIC LIFE.
A Pamphlet Circulated to Prove That He
Is an Innocent Man The Notorious
Fanny Makes an Afidavit.

LONDON, March ga long statement
has been issued, and is now being circu-
lated among the electors of the Forest of
Dean division Of Gloucestershire, ,on be-
half CT Sir Charles Dixie. On February
2esh it was announced that the electors
of the division asked Sir Charles Dixie
to be their candidate for parliament at
the coming general election. He as
sented, provided he had fair assurance
from the majority of the Liberal electors
that his candidacy would receive their
support.
Now it is learned that Sir Charles sup
piled the Liberal organization with a
statement vindicating himself against
the charges made against him in con-
nection with the famous Crawford Dixie
divorce case. According to this state
ment, Captain Forster ought to have
been the correspondent and not Sir
Charles. Referring to the notorious
Fanny" the pamphlet says she is now
happily married, and known as Mrs.
Stock. The pamphlet says Mrs. Craw-
ford, during the divorce proceedings,
ihoOO OhO ASSET IlOil IudC duuy 1ldO D66n
Sir Charles Dilke's mistress, and crowned
her own infamy by swearing that she
MRS. Crawford) and Fanny had been in
bed together with him. Fanny has
made a statutory declaration, giving
full account of herself, and sworn de-
nial of Mrs. Crawford's story.
The general opinion is that the PAM
phlet will win over to Sir Charles a
number who previously condemned him,
but that it will fail to completely vindi-
cate him.
1t is probable, however, that Sir
Charles will abandon the idea of enter
ing parliament, Gladstone having OBJ
jected to his proposed candidacy. Mr..
Stead has published protest against
Dilke's return.

Judge Bronson,s Answer.

SAN Francisco, March 5.-Attorney
Bronson, of the Southern California rail-
way company, filed his answer today
with the railroad commission relative to
the ordered restoration of rates from
Los Angeles to Pasadena. The communi-
cation opens with a statement that the
rates were not reduced to meet compe-
tition, but were regulated to suit the
company's convenience and idea Of JUS
tice. After the completion of the Los
Angeles Terminal road, the rates were
adjusted by the two companies without
consultation and without reduction. The
communication claims that the company
has right to lower or. raise rates on
communication tickets as it sees fit. The
discharge of the judgment of the COM
mission is asked.

SAN DIEGO, March 5.-A story of q
horrible crime comes from San Quentin,
Lower California, which rates among
the horrors of Nero's time. On Sunday
last, Jose Muir, half breed, made dn
attempt on the life of Filepe Sanchez,
who was lying asleep on the sidewalk
in front of saloon. Muir came along
about half drunk and tried to
awaken the sleeping man. Fail
ing, he opened the shirt of
Sanchez, and drawing knife, made
a motion to disembowel him. He
feared the job could not be done with
his dull knife, for after feeling the edge
of the blade, he stepped to the in9ide
and sharpened it quite deliberately IN q
stone, trying it occasionally oni his
dampened finger, and then smiling atthe
bystanders, who thought him jesting.
He finally secured proper edge
and kneeling by the side Of Sanchez
plunged the blade in the sleeping mans
abdomen, partially withdrew it, ran it
over against the hip bone, turned the
knife and forced it upward as far as the
ribs would allow it to go. Muir then
pulled the shirt back over the horrible
gap, Strengthened up, smilingly nodded
to the persons around him, licked the
blood from the blade of his
knife and placed it back in
the scabbard by his side. He was seized
by those who witnessed the crime, and
placed in custody. Sanchez was alive at
hast accounts. Referring to his crime,
Muir says he was q good friend of San
chez, but wanted to try his new knife.
He is now in jail at Ensenada.

EVERETT HALE.
THE DISTINGUISHED SPEAKER DE-
CLARES FOR NATIONALIST.
Temperance Temple-A' Summary of
His Views.

The announcement that Rev. Edward
Everett Hale, DID,, of Boston, would
address the Nationalists of this city at
Temperance temple, last evening, drew
such vast crowd to the auditorium of
that building as to park it to sufocation
and still leave large number of disap-
pointed late comers on the outside, una
BILE to obtain ingress.
The meeting was presided over by
Rev. Webster of Long Beach, who intro
duced "our distinguished brother" Rev.
E. E. Hale, D. D. The audience was
given an opportunity of scrutinizing the
visitor, while collection was taken up.
DIR. Hale on advancing to the front of
the platform was very warmly received,
and graciously acknowledged the COM
pliment. After few preliminary re-
marks endorsing the sentiments
expressed by the chairman, the speaker
said that he found the Nationalist clubs
of this state far in advance of those
in the east, but there was something
in the very history of the state that
made this necessity. The great prin-
ciple of the American people was that of
together" and this was essentially the
VI NdClOIdIlSL1 6O CdllcQ.
The doctor then briefly reviewed the
history of the United States, and illus
trated, by the deeds of the people, the
success of the principle of working in
unison. This, he said. was subject on
which he would like to keep on speak
ing until O'Clock next morning.
1t was pure Nationalism that allowed
the citizens of Boston to walk freely up
o,,d 6nuv, Woo ohinnt0n OF tr, do tb baiy
shopping. without having to pay toll at
either end OF it, when it cost thousands
of dollars every year to keep it in repair.
One thing he could not, however, under
stand, and that was when anything dis
agreeable was to be done, the pure
democracy of the people was brought
to bear on it, while if any
thing that would enrich the community
was needed, it was left to private enter
prise to accomplish it. For instance, a.
smallpox hospital was wanted; the city
must take care of that. An asylum is
needed for the deaf, dumb and blind or
insane; the state must furnish that.
But when street railroad is wanted,
which will return Is per cent. upon the
money invested; oh a private corpora
ton must be allowed to attend to that.
(Laughter).
Eve are not quite such fools,'' said
DR.. Hale, "as the people, who have not
read our writings, take us for. We do
not propose to revolutionize the world,
but we are acting in the line of steady
evolution, which has gone on without
stopping since the Pilgrim Fathers
landed on Plymouth rock"
The gifted speaker frequently inter-
spersed his address with amusing anec-
dotes, which were received with roars Of
