SAY He MARRIED HIS SERVANT. !.
Charles Langford's Children
Want a Redistribution.
The Story Of an Elopement, a Divorce
and Marriage.
A wifc Divorced by Her Husb sband with
out Her Knowledge, After which He
Marries His Servant and Leaves
Her His Property.

The contest over the will of Charles
E. Langford, deceased, bids fair to
eclipse in the nature of the evidence
adduced, the sensational features of the
late Bradbury vs. Millet suit.
The case came up for hearing yester-
day morning before Judge Clark and a
jury in department two OF the superior
court.
The defendant in the suit is Mrs.
Marie Langford, and the contestants are
seven children of the deceased Langford
by former wife: Eliza Longshore,
Charles E. Langford, Thomae o. Lang
ford, Edwin o. Lsngford, Mrs. Annie
Finch and Mrs. Helen Finch.
Langford died last June in Pasadena,
leaving an estate valued at $4,000. In
his will he left to his wife Marie the es-
tate in Pasadena and $4,000 in cash.
lie also left $1,000 to each of his seven
children, should the estate be worth
$1,000 after the provision should be made
for the wife.
To his one child by bis present wife
he bequeathed all the property which
his mother should die possessed of.
IL appears from the papers filed by
tho contestants that the deceased's
preeent wife was at one time q servant
employed by Langiord's first wife, at a
time when Landlord resided in Illinois.
The contestants allege that while en-
ployod in the family as sempstress
Marie won the affections OF the old man,
and induced him to go to Chicago and
institute proceedings for divorce against
his wife.
The divorce was obtained without
either the knowledge or consent of the
then wife, and within two months Lam
lord married the sempstress, Marie.
The contestants also state that Marie
then induced the old man TO remove to
Pasadena, where they would be un-
known.
The children followed, however, and
settled down in Los Angeles.
The complaints allege that Marie, not
content with the spoils already secured,
used all sorts OF Vaccinations TO prevent
the children seeing their father; also
that she poisoned his mind against
them by declaring that they hated him
on account OF his action in obtaining
the divorce against their mother.
1t is alleged that the will was signed
under undue influence, at time when
the teetator was 10 years of age and
feeble minded
They also declare that as the property
of the dece eased was accumulated during
the time of his marriage with the first
wife, that the will should be set aside,
and the property distributed according
to the laws of distribution.
No witnesses we're examined yester-
day, the time being taken up by impan-
neling the jury and in arguing as to the
admission of certain preliminary evil
dence.
The case promises to be an extremely
interesting one, ii the evidence at all
compares with the nsture of the allega-
tions in the complaint.

II Is SO much more gratifying to the Aaheuser
Busch BrelCtng Association of st. Louis that the
jury has awarded to the beer of this firm the
highest diploma. and that no other concern
has gained for the various essential qualities
OF gooo beer so many points in its favor as the
Anheuser Busch Brewing Association of St.
Louis. This verdict of the Columbian Jury,
consisting of connoisseurs and chemists of the
highest rank, has sustained the popular
opinion that the Anheuser usch beer is the
best In this country. Mr. Adolph US Busch, the
president OF the concern, can justly feel proud
over this result, gained by the best business
methods, which exclude corn ard other adul-
terants, and use the finest material sonly that
can be procured in this country and Europe.

PROTEST AGAINST A GRADE

Property Owners on Hinton Avenue
Make n Vigorous Kick.
A protest was filed with the city clerk
yesterday by Charles N. Smith and
other property owners on Hinton avenue
against the grade fixed for the street
between Beaudry and Pearl streets.
They claim that the grade is out of all
proportion to the natural grade, and in
consistent with their rights. They say
that II it is kept as at present it will
amount to contiscation Of some of the
property; that 1t will necessitate the
filling in OF lots adjacent to the street
several feet in depth, in some places as
much as elk feet. They also say that a
grade can be made which will make the
street much better. will necessitste con-
siderably less filling. and save the prop.
e.ty owners large sum of money. They
assert that their petition contains q
majority of frontage along the line of the
proposed grade.

In conversation with Street Superin-

that the statement made by morning
contemporary that he had accepted the
paving work on F;gueroa street from
Washington to Adams streets, is pre-

PATHS Luminous FOuntaia.

From London Nature.
M. G. Trouve has built q luminous
fount tain tor Nine. Patti at her resi-.
dence in Craigy Nos, an account of
which appears in No. IL of the Comp
ties rendus. The weight of this foun-
tain is about 10000 Kilograms, and
the bason measures millimeters in
diameter. The Illuminating power is
represented by tour lncandescent
lamps of 10 volts. each consuming 6
amperes. Thus the total electric
energy amounts to 2040 watts; this
gives at three watts per candles, q
light intensity of over 500 candles.
The lamps are Ce1tered at the focus
of four parabolic rehectors grouped
under the glass chambe whence
the water springs. AS in the cham
Der fountains, the metallic sjutages,
which would have cast shadows, are
eliminated.
The water which falls from the
upper to the lower basin is utilized
To drive q small bucket wheel, which
governs the rotation OF two SUPER
posed disks, concentric or otherwise,
made of cOlored glasses, which turn
in the same or in the opposite sense,
with equal or unequal velocities, as
required, between the reflectors and
the glass. This combInation of two
disks with opposite rotations renders
possible variation in the play of the
colors of the liquid sheaves, which
succeeded each other with the unex-
pectedness of the kaleidoscope. The
motive power can be chosen at pleas
ure. 1t map be hydraulic, electric or
by clockwOrk. of the forms and di-
men sions in keeping with the char
acter Of the decoration.
These fountains need neither ex-
penses of installation nor costs of
maintenance, and their price depends
solely upon their artistic perfection
and their Importance. Hitherto the
construction of luminous fountains
has only been hindered by the inn
possibility of sufficient illuminating
the jets. Today the problem is re-
versed. Since the light can be pro-
jected without sensible loss to great
heights, the only difficulty will be to
give sufficiently high pressure to the
water.

How Nature Cures.

And the Natural Food of Man" is
the title of q new work, by Emmett
Densmore, M. d. published by Still
man & Company, of New York.
A glance ct the table OF contents,
and perusal of the preface, with
cay forty or fifty pages at the end OF
the book, will give fair idea of It's
scope and aim. Parts I. and III. are
re plete with q discussion OF ma .ers
ofvitalimportance,a and Part Ill. Is
made up of scientific proofs Of the
contep ton that all starch foods are
uuwholesome. Chapters V. and
PVII. Part I'LL, made up chiefly
of quotations, will be found spec
tally interesting both to the curious
and to the student of science.
We are hopeful that DR.. Dens-
more's earnest work will receive
OF the hands of the public that
attention which the great impor-
lance of the subjects treated demand.
Every family should be pro-
vided with copy Of that valuable
wark.
