SEVERELY SHOCKED.
Chief of Police Rogers of Sacramento
Was Not a Citizen

SACRAMENTO. Feb. 12.-John B. Rogers,
who has been Chief OF Police the past
three years, received two severe shocks
to-day. Judge Catlin. of the Superior
Court, decided that in all the time he has
held the Office he had no legal claim there
TO, although twice elected by the people
By overwhelming maiorities. and once ap-
pointed by the City Trustees.
The decision hinges on the fact that
when Rogers was first elected he was OF.
as he supposed. a citizen, not being able
to prove that he was under q years of age
when his father was naturallZed. The
court therefore holds that Drew, his pre-
decessor. though not even candidate for
reelection. was entitled to hold over up to
the new charter going into effect.
Last week Mayor Stenman nominated
Rogers for Chief again, but the Trustees
to-night failed to confirm him. just whom
they want is not apparent.

Alabama. Fickler. Smith of Arizona. Loud,
Bowers. and Caminetti of California.
Mr.. Hilborn.made a particularly strong
speech. saying in part:
1.-THE career of Leland Stanford illus
trates the possibilities open to the Ameri-
can youth under our institutions. BY his
unaided eXertions he was able to link his
name inseparably with one of the greatest
enterprises of modern times, to acquire
fabulous wealth, to become Governor of a
sovereign State, a Senator of the United
States. and the founder of an educational
institution, the scope of which has chal-
lenged the admiration of the world. His
career was certainly one of the most re-
markabe and unique in our history. 1t
was romance in real life.
while the great railroad which spans
this continent exists he will need no other
monument; as long as the university
which he founded continues to afford the
youth of the country the facilities for etu-
cation according to his magnificent plan
his name will not be forgotten.
'The project of building a railroad
which would cross two mountain ranges
and desert plain was a bold and auda-
cious one, and would have appalled, more
timid men. But Leland Stan ford and his
associates grappled with The enterprise,
bearing with patience the jeers of the
multitude, and brought it to a successful
conclusion.
Whatever may have been his share of
the weaknesses common to our human
nature they were lost sight of In the good
he accomplished. the result Of which will
long survive him."
AT the conclusion of the eulogies, as a
further mark of respect. the House at
4:15 adjourned.

the presentation by Cullom of an opinion

Senator citing the evidence of members of
the Provisional Government to show that
they were In daily consultation with the
Minister previous to the revolution and
expected the protection of American
troops n their plan to overthrow the
Queens Government. Gray did not con-
clude his speech and will resume his argu-
ment tomorrow.
"The evidence all goes to show" said
the Senator, shat the annexation move
ment was confined to that comparatively
small junta of able. intelligent and vicious
men who, with the aid of the American
Minister. accomplished so far as they
could the object which they had In view.
1 want to say now that l believe Stevens
is good man, good neighbor and an
honest citizen. but he is lot the most dis

than that Stevens was in active completely

The following good story comes from

the young ladies of that ward was
troubled with boil on her knee which
grew SO bad that she thought It, neces
sary to call in a physician. She had
formed dislike for the family physi
clan, so her father suggested several
others, and finally said that he would
call in the physician with the homne
pathic case, who passed the house every
day. They kept a sharp lookout for
him, and when he came along he was
called IN. The young lady mOdestly
showed him the disabled member. The

"The Fast Mail" which az pears at

be the most successful railroad and
scenic melodrama on the road this
season. Mr. L. j. Carter, the author

into a consistent story nearly all the
good points of the sensational drama.
The climax of each act is strong
enough to sustain whole play, yet so
well graded are the features of the
piece that one views with increasing
interest through the five acts, the
murder and the clever trick with the
