member Of the Committee select an assist
ant for each school district, and these men
be appointed by the Co. Chairman, and this
was discussed aad adopted. One man jest
ingly suggested that the name Of no man
who does not vote for Jury Comm'r be
placed in the Jury wheel.
Polling books were distributed to the
members Of the Committee present.
Mr.. Stevenson called for report from
the Congressional Committee, and Mr..

Few who enjoy seeing sensational
race think for a moment at what cost
their kinglv amusement has been fur
nished, Gays the Horseman. The great
est race on the running turf this season
was the Metropolitan handicap at Nor
ris park, New York, June I'd, in which
Tristan set the worlds record for mile
and afurlong at 1:51H. In that race
there started Tristan, Tenny, Claren-
don, Riley, Senorita, Ambulance and
Tournament. Out of its searching fires
only Riley came unscathed. He rapidly
recuperated, and carried the Corrgan
colols galIantly to victory soon after.
Since that race Tournament, who led
the field in the breathless rush up "the
Matterhorn" at Morris park on June
I'd, has been disabled. Tenny is a mag
niticent cripple and far from the horse
that ran the mighty Salvador to head
in the world beating match at Sleeps
head Bay in 1890; Ambulance and Sen
orita came out of the race wrecks, and
Clarendon has been of little account

race, my masters, but at what cost of

Room and Robbed.

Scott Claims to Have Been Locked in
Room and Robbed.
j. B. Morrison was yesterday brought
before the United States commissioner,
charged with falsely impersonating a
United States officer, and went to Jail.
The accusation against Morrison is q
pretty tough one, and ii the case can be
proved he will not escape the clutches
of the law without some marks.
Theeonlpaint against him is made
by an old gentleman named Scott, who
lives at Pasadena. He says that he
started in from Pasadena q few nights
ago in wagon, and that he lost his
way. In some manner he drifted into
company with Morrison and accuses the
latter of having steered him into room
on South Main street, in what is known
as the Crystal Palace building. He says
that Morrison represented himself as a
deputy United States marshal, showing
a badge which read ''U. S. Deputy, j.
D." He further claims that he was
kept in the room designated for two
days, and was drugged and robbed of
5000.

KILLED BY A LOCOMOTIVE.
Mr.. Henry Neimeyer Fatally Injured
Yesterday.

A distressing accident occurred yes
terday morning, which resulted in the
death of Henry Neimeyer, an old and
respected resident Of this city. The
Santa Monica train crashed into the
buggy driven by Mr.. Neimeyer, about
8 80 O'Clock this morning. The horse
was killed instantly. Mr.. Neimeyer
was thrown ten Or twelve feet, and was
fatally injured.
The wounded man was removed to the
family residence, ON Central avenue.
Drs. Wise, Boyd and Parker were sum-
moned, but their skill was of no avail,
as Mr.. Neimeyer died few hours after
the accident. The skull was badly
fractured and both legs were horribly
mangled.
The deceased was conscious until a
few minutes before his death, and con-
versed with his wife and family. Coro-
ner Weldon will hold an inquest this
morning. The deceased was nearly 20
years old, and leaves an interesting
family, who will be we'll provided for.
Mr.. Weimeyer was slightly deaf, and it
is thought that he did not hear the
approaching train until too late to get
out of the way.

which was laid over at the last meeting
of the commission, was taken up, and
on motion of Mr.. Snyder laid on the
table.
The application was in the form OF a
request from the tax collector, who
stated he desired to appoint Davis a
deputy license collector. At the time
the application was made, the mayor
objected to the appointment for the rea-
son that Davis had abused his office
while chief, and would be no credit to
the force. Some OF the members de-
INJURED to the mayors charges and
asked that the matter go over.

General sherman in New Light.

In its November number the Cosmo-
politan will publish a series of letters
written by General w. T. Sherman to
one OF his young daughters, between the
years 1859 and 1865 and covering most
OF the important events of the war of
secession. These letters present graph
ic pictures of great soldier amid some
of the stirring scenes in which he was a
giant figure, and in them the patriotic
spirit of the federal general is seen to
have been most attractively tempered
by strong affection for the southern
people. The fraternal feeling which
glows in these letters is in refreshing
contrast to the sectional bitterness
which characterized the period, and
they will constitute an interesting and
important contribution to the literature
of the war.

WANTS DAMAGES.
r. c. Williams About to Sue the Re
dondo Hotel.

| dondo Hotel.
A suit is contemplated against the Re-
dondo company which possesses some
peculiar circumstances.
| A man about 40 years OF age register
ed at the Redondo hotel a week ago as
B. G. Williams. He WAS assigned a
room and nothing was heard from him
until thenext morning about IL O'Clock
when call boy reported that the man
had sent for him, claiming that he had
been robbed during the night. When
the room was visited it was found that
| the roomer was huddled up in the bed
clothes.
He excused the iormality of his recep-
tion of callers by stating that thieves
| had entered his room during the night
end made away with the only suit of
clothes he had with him also that he had
lost over $500 and atch. He asserted
that clothes and money we're gone. He
said that he had placed his pantaloons,
containing money and watch, under his
pillow, and that the thief had made an
entrance to his room by way of veran-
dab window, which he had neglected to
close.
After his story had been told the hotel
manager Colonel Root, felt considerable
sympathy for the guest and sent for a
suit of clothes, in which Mr.. Williams
was enabled to leave his room. After
considerable discussion about the rob-
berry it was decided to give Williams the
price of ticket to San Diego, where he
said he wished to go, and his receipt was
taken. The alleged robbery took place
on Tuesday night, and after Williams re-
.ceived the money he started ostensibly
for San Diego. He returned to Redondo
on Friday.
In the meantime the hotel people had
their suspicious aroused that the whole
affair might be put up job, and began
to investigate. as well as they could, the
antecedents OF Mr.. Williams. The result
of the investigation was that Mr.. Will
Jams was arrested Friday evening,
charged with obtaining goods under false
pretenses, the goods referring to the suit
of clothes supplied by the company. He
was put in Jail at Redondo and remained
there for few hours, when he was al
lowed to sleep in hotel in charge of a
deputy constable. The next day he was
brought before Justice Leveridge, and
that official discharged him.
Williams now intends to bring suit
against the company for false imprison-
ment, and has retained w. I. Williams
as his counsel.

powders and toilet preparations have
legitimate use in the toilette Of every
woman and use properly made need
not any more than the proper use Of q
