with his accustomed promptness he
went to work to attend to il.
Today and tomorrow he will meet
with the Southern California managers
and directors OF the mid-winter fair and
will familiarize himself with the plans
and then during the few weeks remain
ing before the opening of the fair will
devote his energies and experience to
gathering an exhibit that will ade-
quately represent this section. and
properly advertise it and ksep up the
good impression that Southern California
made at the Chicago exhibit.
THE SUCCESS Ar .CaIcAfio. n
Speaking of Southern Oaifernis' 3
representation at the twotii's fair Mr..
Virgins said that even the 'mbst conser-
vative were ready to aeknoRledge that
the exhibit sent on from here was q
splendid showing OF our resources. and
must be OF 'a-ting benefit 20 ns On
every hand wss he be legged with ques.
tions and conundrums concerning this
southern end OF the state, and although
their time was fully occupied by various
other duties the entire force that went
from here did good missionary work.

one of the four big days of the fair,

brsted by the opening, Iiinois and

witness stand was certainly the most
unique of all the great incidents Of that
eccentric city of impulsive people and
red hot forensic struggles. Sontsg has
been shot to pieces, and is under life
sentence to the penitentiary. His ap-
pearance against his old compafiero in
crime for the first time in all his hard
experience brought pallor to the face
of the bandit chief. Under q cross ex-
animation Of msrciless severity Sontsg
proceeded to tell when he had told the
truth and when he had lied in q previ-
GUS examination. He characterized one
portion of his former testimony as "a
tissue of falsehood from beginning to
end" Asked by one OF Evans'a
counsel why he had lied,
he answered that he did so to prevent
his going to the penitentiary. Finally
Evans's counsel said to him, "Then you
would lie now to get out OF the peniten-
tiary ?" With sang froid that has sell
dom been parslleled, he answered, II
undoubtedly would" What effect the
'SSHlHohy Vi nuCh Wituoss Will ahNo
upon jury remains to be seen. Ac-
cording to all the reports, his memory of
dates and events is perfect. He never
contradicts himself, and he separates
the lies which he admits he told for
merly from the truth which he claims to
be telling now, with skill and method
that astound those who have started out
to tangle him up in ss-examination.
He is perfect instance OF a character
that Oliver Goldsmith described in
Jenkinson, in the Vicar of Wakefield, of
a man clever enough to have achieved
remarkably successful career if he had
only been honest, instesd of yielding to
his criminal instincts. He is certainly
an unique malefactor.

WORKS OF ART.
A Spring Street Display Draws,
Crowds.
where Goods Are Sold Exactly as They.
Are Kspresented-Destin to Be-
come One of the Attractive Fea-
lures of Los Angeles CITY.

The great jewelry and art establishment OF
Nj German on South Spring street. between
Third and Fourth, is rapidly assuming shape,
and hundreds of people stop daily to admire
the beautiful goods which are displayed in the
show windows. These. however, give but
faint conception Of the wealth and vsri-
ETY. of artistic and valuable articles
which are exposed for sale within.
This establishment will be Godsend to that
numerous class of citizens who desire to select
soma artistic piece of jewelry or work of art,
either for themselves as present, and who,
while having little knowledge on the subject
themselves, desire to be sure that what they
buy is exactly as represented, and that they
are not being charged an exorbitant price be.
cause of their lack OF technical knowledge.
1t is generally understood that in the average
ewelry store prices are more or less elastic. de-
pending to great extent on the knowledge or
acumen OF the buyer. This is not the case at
Germans, where child may buy as advan-
tageously az man who "knows the ropes" A
fixed and moderate profit is charged on each
article.
Mr.. German IL here to stay. He intends to
identity himself with Los Angeles. 1t is easy
to see that his establishment will, within a
short time become one of the features OF the
city.

While the first pair OF dogs were be-

although not on the programme, made
a dash for it. The collar that should

strong one; in fact, all Long Beach
hares are. 1t is said that they practice

Although the hare was swift, the dog
was swiiter, and the hare was turned
many times. A chase of over three
miles was necessary, however, before a
kill was made. The pace had been ter

Mr.. Frank Virgins and the last Of the
Southern California representatives at
the worlds fair arrived over the South
ern Pacific road yesterday morning from
Chicago.
The trip was tiresome and eventful
one, the party's progress being inter-
rupted at several points by washouts
and other interruptions. When they
left Chicago it was too cold to be COM
Portable, protected by even the thickest
and warmsst clothing, and to cay that

Mr.. Wiggins' return home was has

THE country ia at last treated to a
genuine surprise. Mr.. Van Alien, after
having been nominated and confirmed
as minister to Italy, positively. and in
spite of the presidents solicitations, per-
sistently, declines to accept the post OF
minister plenipotsntiary and envoy ex-
traordinsry-or is it ambassador ?-to
Italy. This is one Of those thingummy
things out of clear sky whose descent
cannot fail to excite our special wonder.
1t is not said whether Van Alien wants
his $50. 200 back. 1t will be remembered
that a Mugwump editor of the New Y ork
Evening Post offered to raise it for him.
These gentlemen OF the press are always

know. The man who married into the
Astor millions has shown that he is not
such chump, after all.
