Advised to Accept the Plan
From the Artnnta Constitution


We state, unhesitatlngly. that IL is the duty Of
all the security holders to accept the plan pro-
posed. 1t is absolutely the only safe way out Of
the difficulties surrounding this valuable prop
erty. II it fails, the junior security holders will
get nothing, and if the road remains in litiga-
ton for period of years there will be- loss al
around, and this great property will be- para
lyzed. The plan has met with the approval of
some OF the largest holders of stock and securi-
ties, both in this state and IN New York

organization in the plan submitted 1t seems to

Congressional Funeral Reforms

There is ore feature of congressional
funerals that is not in keeping with the
solemn surroundings. 1t is the dress Of the
senators and representatives chosen to act
as honorary pail bearers. There lie nothing
in their dress to indicate the duties they
perform. Washington correspondent
calls attention to the contrast which the
costumes OF the honorary pall-bearers at
the funeral OF Senator Kenna presented
to those OF the other distinguished
officials who were present. in the
Senate chamber. "Oh the front row." says
the correspondent, sat the President and
his cabinet, all dressed in black, with black
neckties aud black gloves. In the next
row sat the members OF the supreme court
in their awkward aud glistsning gowns of
black silk. while behind the judges were the
foreign ministers, all in black. Just across
the aisle in the seats of honor and promi-
hence sat the senator's and congressman
who had been selected to act as pall-bearers
and to represent congress on the funeral
train. Senator Faulkner, at the head
OF the line, was Respondent with neck
tie Of brilliant red spots while next to him
the light blue trousers and colored tie Of
Senator Blackburn were very conspicuous.
Congressman Bingham, of Pennsylvania by
common acceptance the best dressed mau
10 the House. had on a large white silk
necktie. while Congressman Outhw waite, Of
Ohio, wore neckwear of glistening blue.
Congressman Wilson, Of West Virginia,
wore light trousers and many colored tie,
and other members Of the pall-bearers were
guilty OF the same violation of the canon OF
good taste"
The senator's and representatives who
escort the remains of brother con-
gresham TO his home are not, as
rule, bowed down with grief Some
Of the stories told Of thess honorary pail
bearers are not at all complimentary to
them. As a rule they go on their journey
we'll equipped for having a good time. The
BILLS that congress authorizes to be paid for
wine and cigars consumed on these funeral
| journeys are often scandalously large.
| There are several things in connection with
congressional funerals that ought to be re-
| formed.

FLAvoRING EXTRACTS.
A New Process

The Lemon, the Orange, the
Vanilla, contains more or less
of a delicate flavoring sub
stance, and the separation of
this substance in a manner so
as to retain all its freshness,
sweetness and naturalness, re-
quireS the greatest experience
and care.
DR.. PRICES DELICIOUS FLAVOR.
ING EXTRACTS are prepared by
a new process that gives to
them the natural havoring
qualities, and are so concen-
trated that it requires but
small quantity to impart to a
cake, pudding or cream, the
delicate flavor of the fresh
fruit. The leading chemists
endorse their purity. The

Yesterday.

The Funeral Services OF A. W. Potts
Yesterday.
The funeral of A. W. Potts took place
yesterday afternoon at 2 2o'clock from the
Congregational church at the corner of
Sixth and Hill streets. A very large
assembly was gathered there at the
services, and it was conspicuous by the
number OF old residents who were pres
ent. Rev. DR.. Hutchins delivered a
very eloquent and touching address, in
which he alluded to the noble qualities
Of the deceased. He spoke of him as a
pioneer who had done his part to estab-
lish American civilization in California,
and who had suffered the privations of
frontier life and experienced all the mu-
tations Qffortune common to the build
ers Of new states. He touched feelingly
upon his gentle and amiable disposition,
his greatness of heart and his character
istic benevolence and generouH disnosi-
tion. Hewas kind to his fellow man,
and that word had it's root in kinsman, ,
kindred, 90 that he naturally felt for and
esteemed his fellow-men as brothers.
He sympathized with the Borrowing
family in their terrible bereavement,
and reminded them that they must look
to the divine author OF all for consolation
in their hour of trouble. To his friends
present, he adjured them to emulate his
virtues, and take from his broad and
loving disposition lesson that was in
stinct with the teachings and example
of the divine master.
The pall-bearers were Col. E. E. Hew-
lit, Col. j. ]. Ayers, Thomas Hayes,
Fred Holbrook, D. Waldron and Martin
Marsh. The Knights of Pythias, of
which Mr.. Potts had long been mem
Der and officer, took charge of the SER
vices at the grave. The body was fol-
lowed by a long line of carriages to
Evergreen cemetery, where the family
burial lot is situated, and there the
Knights OF Pythias consigned all that
was mortal OF the good man gone to
their last resting place, their chaplain
reciting the beautiful burial ritual OF
the order after the body had been low
cred into the grave.
These were the last sad Offices that
friends could perform for poor "Wilse'
Potts, one of the gentlest. most lovable
and generous hearted creatures that
ever existed.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs Of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup Of Figs.
Its excellence is due TO its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties Of a perfect lax
ative; effectually cleansing the system
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them aud it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and ST bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup

MUSICAL ARTHUR LEWIS.
He Was Sharp But the Sheriff Was Nc
Flat.

He Was Sharp But the Sheriff Was No
Flat.
Sheriff Cline is now on his way from
the Needles to this city, having in
charge Arthur Lewis, one of the smooth
est crooks that ever visited Los Angeles.
The etory OF his operations in this
city and his capture when almost out of
the state, may prove of general interest.
The fellow, who is of quite prepossess-
ing appearance, walked into the music
store OF Fisher & Boyd about two weeks
ago and introduced himself as an ex-
pert on pianos and asked to be allowed
to take charge OF the outside work of
the company. AS he had fair musical
education and was able to play the
piano in q first-claes manner, the firm
decided to give him q chance to secure
orders on the outside.
One morning short time after his
engagement he came in and announced
that he had made sale of an upright
Emerson piano to Mr.. L. D. Dechtel,
who lives at 118 South Olive street, for
which he was to receive $500 and later
he brought the purchaser into the store
and exhibited the qualities of the in
strument to him. The firm was natur-
ally pleased with the sale and never sus-
pecting that everything was not all
right they delivered the piano to Lewis,
who at once took it out to Mr. Dechtels
residence and collected, it is claimed,
not $500 but $3.50 which was the price
the purchaser had agreed tc pay. Not
content, however, with a liberal COM
mission and $50 rake down,
Lewis, it is alleged, decided to take the
whole thing, only turning in $25 to
Fisher and Boyd with the statement that
he would collect the rest the next morn.
ing.
Instead of doing this, however, it il
claimed that he proceeded to cut off his
heavy mustache, and putting on new
suit of clothes boarded the first Santa
Fs train for Chicago, being well on hit
way before the music store people found
out what was up, but when they did nc
time was lost in notifying Sheriff Cline
and having a warrant issued for his ar
rest. a..
As the fellew has good start, th'
prospects, of catching him were rathe
slim, but the sheriff at once telegraphe(
the constable at The Needles to look ou
for the man and as luck would have it
the officer was fortunate enough to nal
him just as he was boarding the east
bound train.
The sheriff here was notified of th'
capture and at once left for The Needlel
to bring his man back and expects tt
have him securely locked in the county
jail inside of few hours.

AN EARLY BLAZE.

A Fire In Brooklyn Heights-A Horse
and Cow Burned to Death.
About o'clock yesterday morning an
alarm of FIRE WAS turned in from box 1926,
located in Brooklyn Heights.
Both the park hose and the chemical
engines responded. but owing to the dis.
tance, the building, which proved to be

the machines arrived. Mr.. Rudiger' q
loss will be in the neighborhood OF 5000,
with no insurance. A horse and COW
were burned to death in the building,
besides carriage, wagon and two sets
OF harness.
The origin of the Ere is not known, but
it is thought that tramps must have
started it by smoking around the hay.

at Pasadena the other day during the

der the rules Of the National Amatuer

participate in 100-yard foot race.
No objection was made on his entering
but when he won the race by several

The gold medal was awarded to some
other fellow, and now young Childress

THE ARRESTED WALTERS.

Ono of Them IL Given q Nominal Sent
encs, and the Others Discharged.
Eloquent arguments we're the order of
the day in Justice Seaman's court yes
terday afternoon.
The case which brought out all the
legal oratory was that Of the people vs.
John Ramsey and others, for disturbing
the peace. This, 1t will be remembered,
is the case in which six members of the
waiters' union were arrested for par
aiding in front of Melsted & MaxwelPs
restaurant on Second street with ban
ners announcing that the proprietors Of
the restaurant in question were enemies
of working people, etc.
Both sides were we'll represented, from
legal standpoint. LIE Compte Davis,
deputy district attorney, looked after
the peoples interests, and Messrs.
Henry p. Wilson and w. I'll. Davis rep
resented the defense.
a number of witnesses were examined
on both pides, the evidence produced
showing that the paraders we're making
no racket, but persisted in marchsng in
a circle in front of the restaurant, as
they claimed they had rig 1T 10 do.
AT the conclusion OF tne testimony
the arguments which were long and
eloquent, especially that of Mr.. Davis,
we're heard. The deputy district attor-
ney stated that he understood his
action in this case had been criticised
in come quarters and that he had been
accused of being an enemy of organized
labor. which he emphatically denied.
District Attorney Dillon himself was
present at the beginning OF the trial and
related that on account of the ill-feeling
against Mr.. Davis he had Intended to
conduct the trial himself, but could not
be present on account of business in
other courts.
The court held that defendants were
guilty as charged and imposed fine of
81. All the other defendants were dis
charged. p1
/ An appeal will be taken to the su-
preme court.
