Successful Entertainments.


Success crowned the efforts of the
young ladies of the Catholic
church at their festival last Tues
day evening. The attendance was
grand. Other parts of the town
seemed to be depopulated for every
body was at the Courthouse. The
place was far too small for the
gathering. The music was excel
lent. The supper was all that
could be wished. In fact every
thing was good, Well-done, well
liked and everybody was happy.
Too much praise cannot be given
the Misses Jennie Sanguinetti,
Anita and Palmina Gandolfo, Sofa
and Matilde Rimpau, Cristine
Green, Eulalia Casares, Jesusita
Martinez, Panchita Feliz, Debbie
Mellon, Ruth Bossung, Dolores
Redondo, Regina Contreras and
Beatrice Castillo, and Miss Thomas
also to Mrs. S. S. Gillespie and
Mrs. Thomas for their efficient
labors in getting up SO pleasant an
entertainment for the people of
Yuma.
Father Gheldorf has reason to
be proud that he has such an
army of good workers in his con-
gregation.
The receipts of the entertain
ment were $3.50; total expenses
$25, which leaves q balance of
1856, which will be devoted to the
finishing of the convent. In the
success of the two festivals lately
enjoyed in Yuma, her people have
shown a feeling of enterprise that
is worthy of the highest COM
mendation.

the cars to go in to supper; the
Indians, of whom a great crowd
had gathered, scattered in every
direction, yelling, shouting and
crying out with wonder. They
soon stopped however and took
another look at the monstrous
woman. BY the time she was
through with her repast, the In
dams had Gained down and ready
to take another look at the lovely
Jennie. AS she passed out, she
moved through the crowd like an
ocean racer and took her seat in
the car from which she sold photos
of herself as fast as she could make
the change. Some of the boys who
are great lovers of little feet say
that Jennie wears No. q shoes.
She was on her way to her home
in Texas from San Francisco where

THE DISTRICT ArToRNEYsHIP.
The President May Appoint . Democrat
To Succeed MT. Cole.

The President May Appoint . Democrat
To Succeed Mr. Cole.
II IL learned from q well-nigh unimpeachable
source that the President hes practically deter
mined On the appointment Of democrat - the
successor Of District Attorney Cole and that his
choice wavers between Mr.. R. Rose Perry and
Mr.. H. e. Davis. The Attorney General, whose
advice in this matter viii undoubtedly have
considerable weight, IL credited with the sdvo-
cscy Of such course. In speaking Of this sub
ject recently prominent official Of the govern
ment said that while the President naturally
preferred to give the Office to . republican he
hesitatsd to do so from . feeling
that an official Of that political per-
suasion would have but . short tenure Of
office and that It probably would be better for
the true interests Of the District II the Office
were filed by man whose standing at the bar
would compel his acceptance by all good citi-
zens, including republicans, and, in addition,
whose political faith would render his retention
tn Office extremely probable during the next
administration. There will be no action In this
matter, however, for several weeks, for the
reason that the Office will not be vacant unless
the Senate confirms Mr.. Coles nomination as
an associate justice Of the Supreme Court OF the
District. While there is no doubt Of Mr.. Coles
confirmation there is considerable doubt as to
the date of action. In the doubtful event OF
the appointment Of . republican district attor-
ney the chances Of Assistant District Attorney
Taggart are said to be remarkably good.

Toward Her Tathrr.

Capt ". f. Garrett. an old-time Mississipri
river steamboat captain aud later an employe
Of the government secret service. va. for year.
well-known resident Of 1T. Louis. where his
friends included all the old river men and many
prominent business men. In is5e Capt. Garrett
with his two daughters, aged twelve and fifteen,
left st. Louis and took up his residence In Loo
Angeles, Cal There the elder daughter. MAilah,
soon met young man named James Edgcomb,
whom her father forbade the house. Thty met
clandestinely, however. and the girl soon told
her father that she had been betrayed.
After two DAYS fruitlsss soarchsfor Edgcomb,
with the intention Of killing him. Capt Garrett
swore out warrant and Edgcomb was ARRESTED
and held in default OF 60 600 bail.
While IN jail he sent for the girl and was mar
ried 10 her, thus escaping punishment Ac-
cording 90 the girls recent story. Eagcomb,
after his release from jail. thirsted 60 he re-
venged on Capt. Garrett and persuaded MAilsh.
together with friends OF his. 60 swear that 10
was her father and not Edgcomb who ruined
her.
Capt Garrett was arrested and convicted on
the sole testimony OF his daughter aud son
fenced to the penitentiary for ten years, three
OF which he has served. NAiGh aud her
husband, Edgcomb. drifted finally 60 Mobile,
Ala, where Edecomb treated his Young vile
sc shamefully that she sought projection from
Mr.. Vim. Young OF that city. when Edgccmb
shot and seriously wounded Mr.. Young and ~
now a fugitive from Alabama justice.
Mailah has recently written most pathetic
letter to Gov Markham Of California pleading
for her fathers pardon and stating that her
testimony, on which he was convicted. was to-
tally false and that shs was led % committing
perjury by the fend Edgconb. who had great
influence over her on account Of her eNtrcme
youth. Capt. CARROTS three wears in the PEN
itentiary have shattered HE health greatly, sut
ii is very probable that he will soon nov be par

preliminaries to organize a lodge Of the order
In that section of the District. Grand Master

rangements. The prospects are very favorable
that the new lodge will at once start on the high
road to success. The members of which it will
be composed are substantial and energetic and
represent the various walks in life. They are
encouraged with the outlook, and confidently
expect to build up strong and influential or

bers of the fraternity in that section are in
vited.
Beacon Lodge, No. Is, will meet on wednes-
