jolly good fellow, whom everybody liked
and against whom nobody had an ILL
word. When the witness saw him after
ward, however, he recognized Palmer as
a mental wreck.
John Rankin accompanied Palmer on
the boat-ride referred To in Fay's deposit
uon, an0 SO testified when called 10 the
stand. lie said Palmer was perfectly
SOBER that night. He was acting very pc
cuIlarly, however, during the entire
evening. lie would start in TO talk about
something, and would get about half
through with it when he would suddenly
change TO some other subject. The wit
ness was satisfied that something was
wrong with his mind. He had known
Falmer Tor eight years. During the first
SIX years OF that time Palmer was one OF
the happiest men he ever met but during
the last two years great change had
come over him. Witness met him in
San francisco shortly before the killing
OF Phleger, and Palmer'S strange actions,
queer remarks and peculiar hallucina-
uons caused the witness to remark TO his
parents, when he returned home to Da-
vlsvIlIe, that Palmer's troubles had
driven him crazy.
GREATLY CHANGED.
John Merllley testified that he had
known Palmer Il number of years. Until
two years ago Palmer was Jolly, hale
lelIoW We'll met, who numbered his
friends by the hundred, and who was a
bright, clever business man. But a
change had come over him, superin-
duced by the trouble he had had with
falr and Phleger. He talked strangely
ana erratlcally, and could not transact
business IN an intelligent way. Witness
knew TINS from experience. On one oc-
caSlon Palmer showed the witness a
hammerless pistol, and said that there
We're TWO or three chaps latter his
scalp" and he did not propose they
should have 1t. The witness formed the
opinion, from Palmer's general conduct,
that he was not III his right mind.
Justice of the Peace kaupt Of Washing
ton. Golo County, was the next witness.
he had known Palmer for several years.
The witness accompanied Palmer and
several others to Palmer's ranch once
several OF the party desiring to purchase
some land. Witness rode with Palmer
IN the Iatter's buggy. The rest
OF the party got quite a distance
dropped the leins, and whipping the
horse started the animal Oft on gallop
as hard as he could go. The witness be-
came frightened and asked Palmer to
stop the horse, but the defendant would
not listen to him, saying, wen catch
those fellows" AS soon as they caught
up with them, he let them get ahead
again, and then gave the witness another
runaway ride. Witness was positive
Palmer was not drunk.
ii. J. Greenwood testified that he was
the proprietor of the Crystal Palace
Saloon in April. 1891. During that month
Pallner came into the saloon and took a
seat in the back room. Palmer took
pistol out of his pocket and said, Where
is the ---?" The witness asked
him who he meant. and he replied that
he meant Bill Harlow. Witness asked
him what Harlow had done, but could
get no satisfactory answer. Palmer was
perfectly sober. The witness saw Palmer
various times, and he invariably did
something queer, creating the impression
that he was insane.
The trial will be resumed this forenoon.

Our little twelve-line paragraph of
six weeks ago on the decidedly un-
American character of poll taxes, elicits
some new expression from every paper
that copies it, and we have to find the
first exchange that has word to say in
its defense, One paper goes SO far as to
say: 'sIf there was ever a tax without
a particle of justice to excuse it, that tax
is the one which is levied-on the condi-
tion Of manhood. In reading newspa-
pers and talking with thinking people
generally, we find that there is prac-
tical unanimity Of sentiment on this
question. Yet, for some reason, the law
is not repealed"

NON COMPOS MENTIS.
MRS. ANNA III. WARNER SENT TO
AGNEW FOR CARE.
Her Somewhat Sensational Examination
observation-disclosures Taken in the
Proceedings-The Sad Case
of William Turner.

Mrs. Anna H. Warner was examined
again yesterday before Judge Smith for
insanity, and this time was committed
to the asylum at Agnews. The exam
ination was conducted by Doctors nan-
non and Moore, and was quite sensa-
tional. It was only two weeks ago that
a similar proceeding was had, and the
woman discharged. Since that time she
has been visiting the police station and
sheriff's Office numerous times, asking
for protection for her husband, Herbert
Warner, alleging that people were trying
to kill him. sat
There were quite number of women
in the court room. and interest centered
in the frail-looking but exceedingly in
telligent woman who was examined.
The witnesses consisted of several police
officers, who told. of her visits to the
station, of deputy sheriff, who described
her actions in the sheriff's office, her
husband, and two or three women, the
latter urging that she was not insane.
Mrs. Warner interrupted the witnesses
a number OF times, and explained the
case from her own standpoint, claiming
that it was her husband who was insane
and not herself. As an evidence of this,
she created some amusement by turning
to her husband and saying to him that
he knew be could not be trusted with a
gun, and that he had been carrying a
gun and pistol around town. She said
she was afraid he would shoot himself.
As an instance of his danger she said,
smilingly:
"You know, Herbert, that you shot a
number of times at an owl, and you
know you could not hit the OWL"
Turning to more personal matters,
Mrs. Warner INDUCED in long but
dreadfully coherent statement, for de-
mented person, in which she accused a
Mrs. M. B. Wheeler and George B. Lit
tie with attempting to steal her hus-
band, and with forming conspiracy to
send ber to an insane sylum She was
very bitter towards Mrs. Wheeler.
The physicians finally decided, how
ever. that, although not at present be-
traying violent symptoms of insanity, it
was proper to send her to an asylum
She was therefore committed, and will
be sent up, probably, today. She was
taken to the hospital for the night.
William Turner was also examined for
insanity before Judge Smith, and was
pronounced insane. His case is very
pathetic, his mother being well nigh
distracted over the sorrowful event. He
| will be taken to Stockton.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The theater-goers of Los Angeles are
just now showing woeful lack OF interest
in an excellent company,
The true lover of good operate music,
and of talent that can reproduce it in a
fitting manner, will regret that lack of
confidence in troupe not much known
to local fame has deprived him of some
OF the most charming notes by such COM
posers as Mazza and Chapy.
The Arcaraz Spanish opera company,
now at the Grand opera house, is COM
posed of an array of talent such as one
rarely meets, and the assertion NAV
safely be ventured that no travelling
American company could show such a
number of uniformly good singers.
1t was, perhaps, mistake on the part
OF the management to have opened the
Arcaraz season with La Tempestad, as it
is in no way comparable to Campanone.
The libretto of this opera is undoubted-
ly far above the average of comic opera.
and presents good field to the come
dian, but the music is simply gem. 1t
is as full Of melody as any of Rossini's
works, and sparkling notes ripple from
talented throats, from the overture to
the hnaie.
Those who missed Campanone will be
sorry for it. Sra. Delgado, as the prima
dona, Gorilla, sang and thrilled her most
charming notes last night, she being in
entire sympathy with her role. Sr. Ser
rano, who had the part Of the tenor. AL
berto, is good singer, and he made an
excellent impression upon his hearers.
Sr. Quijada had the title role, which he
sang very well. Sr. Vargas, Panfilo, the
poet, however, met with as unadulter-
ated applause as any of the artists. He
is a baritone, with very sympathetic
and cultured voice, and an excellent
comedian withal. The choruses are
faultlees and strong, and altogether it
would be very difficult to meet with an
other such evenly good company. In
the second act Sehorita Fernandez and
Sr. Patricio Gutierrez danced the iota
coreada to perfection.
Campanone should be repeated. To-
night Boccacio will be presented. AS
the libretto Is known by every theater-
goer, the fact that Spanish is used
should not deter anyone from going to
the Grand Opera house. The singing
will be far superior to that of any light
opera company heard here before in the
same play.

THE BOSS GIFTS in HIS WORK.

4 The city council of Los Angeles has a
total membership of nine, including it's
president, and the political complexion
of its members is six Republicans to
three Democrats. That the Republicans
in that body can do just about what
they like, is evident from the way they
handled the assessment of the Sunset
Telephone company's property, day or
two ago. The vote which passed the
Force bill through the house of repre-
sentatives in 1891, was no stricter party
vote than that which Topped off the sum
of $23, 900, just about enough to cover
the expense of putting their wires under
ground. Of course, this sepulture of
their wires is very conducive to
the public safety, but the Sun
set Telephone company did not
plant their wires under the asphalt from
any particular regard for the public
health. They buried them because the
electric light wires were taking all the
electricity out of them, and making it
almost impossible for business men to
overhear the gossip of the handsome
young ladies in the central telephone
Office.
Mr.. Hinton, the city assessor, had
done his duty fairly in the premises by
fixing the total valuation OF the Sunset
Telephone company's property at $780,
600. The matter was brought up before
the city council, sitting as board OF
equalization, by Senator Carpenter, whs
is political boss, and cracks the party
whip to some purpose. At his be-
hest, five of the six councilmen, all
Republicans, reduced the assess
ment. The company claims they are
entitled to the reduction because
they have lines outside the city which
have paid no profit in the last year, but
they admit their gross receipts for the
past year to have been $40, 900. This is
the basis upon which Hinton made his
assessment Of their plant. II they clear
$4,000 per annum within the city, and
then reinvest those proceeds in suburban
lines which do not pay for the zinc
moulds to generate electricity, that is
surely no fault Of the assessor.
But the boss carpenter took out his
adze and began to hew; and his chips
