Tho Horrible Death of Mrs. Mariana
GarjsIba.
Mrs. Mariana Garjalba, q Mexican
woman, met with horrible accident
yesterday morning, receiving injuries
which resulted in death.
Mrs. Garjalba. who resided at Brook
lyn Heights, was in the habit OF attend
ing mass at the old church opposite the
plaza. Yesterday morning she was on
her way to service, as usual, and was
crossing the Santa Fe railroad lines on
Macy street, when she was knocked
down by q train. The unfortunate
woman was at once picked up and the
patrol wagon sent for, but life was prac-
tically extinct before the receiving hos
pital was reached. The skull OF the de-
ceased was badly crushed, and Police
Surgeon Bryant, who took charge OF the
case at the hospital. was unable to do
more than detect few pulse-beats be-
fore the woman expired.
The fsgDan who watches the cross
ing, stated yesterday that he saw the old
lady, and warned her of the approach
ing train before she stepped from the
bridge on to the track, but being some
what deaf che took no notice of his eau
tion, and to the mans horror, stepped
deliberately in front of the rapidly ap-
preaching cars.
The body was removed to Orr &
Sutch's undertaking rooms, where an
inquest will be held this morning.
Mrs. Garjalba leaves a husband and
and several children.

He Finds Things st Chicago Improving
Local Notes.
Another letter has been received from
Mr.. Virgins at the worlds fair. Affairs
are reported to be progressing much
more satisfactorily than they were in
the previous communications. Mr..
Virgins states the prospects are that
California will derive an immense
amount of profit from her exhibit at the
fair.
Another statement which is also pleas
ing is the one that the Chicago people
have come down from their high horse
and no longer evince disposition to rob
the strangers within their gates. The
crowds who were expected to fill the
hotels are not there, and the Chicago
people are beginning to regulate their
prices accordingly. When prices are
lowered again trip to the White city
can be made with nominal expense.
The state building is not yet COM
pleted, but the roof has been put on
and it is not so disagreeable to work in
as formerly. 1t has not yet been thrown
open to the public, but already great in
terest is being displayed toward the
Golden state exhibit 1t has proved to
be the Inoht abserved feature in the
horticultural department and two or
three attendants can scarcely keep pace
answering questions about this country.
The people who show the interest are
not idle sightseers, but sterling indi-
viduals who really desire to learn
all they can of California. Many talk
of moving here. The California exhibit
has caused more interest than any other
on the grounds. 1t appears as though
the people cannot learn enough Of this
state. They stand incrowds around the
building, peep in through the windows,
and do not seem able to withstrain their
curiosity to view the wonders hidden
within for short time longer. Mr.. L.
N. Breed visited the exhibit recently,
and complimented it very highly.
San Diego will soon ship another car
load Of trees to the fair.
Riverside and Los Angeles counties
will. together. ship carload Of oranges
shortly.

Something About the Winner
of This Interesting
Contest.

The final count Of the ballots shows
that Mrs. d. Mckay wins the HERALD's
frst-class round-trip ticket via the
Southern Pacific route to Chicago.
The extraordinary number OF cou pons
which bore her name testify to her great
popularity and personal worth.
When the offer Of the HERALD first
appeared that, of donating round-trip
ticket from Los Angeles to the worlds
fair to the most popular person, an idea
was conceived by the various courts of
Ancient Order OF Foresters of America
and the circles Of Companions Of the
Forest to place before the people OF this
city one Of their number as the one de-
serving of this honor. At union meet
ing of the courts and circles held last
Friday evening at court Los Angeles, to
decide to whom was entitled this dis
tinction, the choice lay between three
prominent ladies of the circles: Mrs. A.
B. AndrewsFof Los Angeles circle, Miss
Thompson OF Laurel circle, and Mrs. d.
Mckay of Los Angeles circle. Mrs. Nc

Women of Their Period.

In the great momentum of the women
movement, which gains new victims
every day, one is inclined to overlook
the fact that woman was power moral
ly, socially and intellectually in the fif-
teenth centuryhs well as the nineteenth,
that the doors of the universities were
open to her not only to study but to
teach withinitheir sacred precincts. In
the University Of Salamanca she had a
place, and when Isabella of Spain de-
sired to acquire the Latin tongue it was
to a woman that she turned for tutor.
In Italy, even IN the thirteenth century,
a noble Fiorentine lady won the palm Of
oratory IN public contest in Florence
with learned doctors from all over the
world.-New York Sun.

Henry Bentley is in decidedly happy
frame of mind. He told reporter yes
terday that he was making efforts to OBJ
tain the $4,000 bail fixed by Judge
Smith, and thsthe expected to be free

He stated that he had visited his old
home, and found it in rather an un-
cared for condition. No one had been
looking after it, and he was anxious to
get out of Jail in order that he might
attend to his property.
Bentley added that he guessed the
Nordholt boys had given him all the
trouble they could afford, and he thought
they wern't looking for any more at any
rate he wasn't afraid of them.
He persisted in his former statement
that Detective Lawson had told him
that he would not be prosecuted for
Mrs. Bentley's death if he would only
resign all claim to her property and
hand it over to the Nordholt boys.

lOCHREN ON PENSIONS.
All Pensions Are Presumed to Have Been
Properly Granted.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.-Commissioner
Lochren has addressed letter to the editor
of the National Tribune in which he de-
| clines to comply with the request that he
should cause a test to be made to show the
number of fraudulent pensions by having
LOCO casos drawn from tho admitted list
and examined The comm issioper said
among other things; "Fraudulent cases, il
any exist, cannot be discovered in that way
A fraudulent pension must ordinarily have
been obtained upon false or forged testi-
mony. On ths fac, of the papers,
such case would probably ap-
pear to he woll established and incontest t.
able. No one whose opinion is entitled to
consideration has as l think, had the hardi-
hood to claim that the great mass of adjud-
Gated pension cases is permeeted with fraud
| have far too high an opinion of my old
comrades to believe that large numbers of
them are scoundrels who have sought and
obtained pensions dishonesty. | believe
that the pensions granted to soldiers who
did actual service ia the field arc usually
honest aud well deserved. No doubt rests
on this class of cases, and no examinations
of them are being taken, except where evil
dence is received tending to show that some
particular case ia fraudulent or has bsen
improperly decided.
''Aly old comrades may feel sure Of re-
ceiving any thing to which The law-most
literally construed entities them. Partisan
leaders may try to arouse feeling for par
tisan ends. But the execution of a law
upon the construction given to it by two
heads of the same department of opposite
politics, which construction is admitted by
every body to be correct, has no political
character, and | did not hesitate to commit
the work to "A board of revision whose abil-
ity fitted them for it, though most OF them,
with their Chief are republicans. They are
able and fair men, and select, from day to
day, from the cases examined such cases as
they deem unlawfully allowed. II that
was the class of cases you wished drawn
and examined the work is done every day
by this board. None of the pensions it
these cssoi arc suspended until after con
demnation by this board. 1t is expected
that in very many of such cases tho pen
Sionsrs will be able to produce testimony
showing them entitled to pensions under
the law; in which case the Suspension will

DIED IN SIGHT OF THE BALL ROOM.
Tho party was laughing and iesting when
1t was discovered that the boat was too far
in toward tho shore, and in an instant more
the yacht dashed upon the sunken rocks.
The boat seemed to hang on the rocks for
a moment and then sliding from the pier
began to fiji rapidly with water, large
hole having been crushed into the boat s
side.
At once after the striking OF the vessel
the widest struggle for life came. The la
dies, attirej In ball room dresses, and the
men, encountered with their coats, were
thrown into the water, and many had great
difficulty in freeing themselves Of tho boat
as it went down. The men OF the party
tried in every way to save the ladies, but the
night was so dark that every effort was made
doubly hard aud IL seemed a lifetime before
the arrival of help from the hotel, whose
bail room was i'll full sight of th, accident,
aud to which the cries OF the persons strug-
CLING in the water penetrated with heart
rending distnctness as soon as the music
OF the orchestra ceased.
The work of rescue was prosecuted with
the utmost difficulty. The men and ladies
from tue ball room ran to the dock in full
evening dress and succeeded In bringing
many OF the passengers who embarked on
the boat TO shore. Several Of the persons
taken from the water were in critical con
dition and suffered intensely before the ar
rival of physician from Bolton, four miles
away.
