LHEZ HELD FOR TRIAL
ATTORNEY WILLIAMS COULD OF
FER NO DEFENSE.
Arthur Stewart Found Guilty of EN-
bezzlement-En of Seduction
Case-New Suits Filed
Yesterday,

The French seduction case was re-
sumed yesterday in Justice Bartholo-
NEVIS court, Baptistine Petit's sister
testifying in favor of her sister, the
plaintiff.
The irst witness called by Jean Lhez,
the defendant, was a lady with bad
black eye who gave her name as Madame
Deglar. The witness stated that she
kept restaurant at 800 Commercial
street.
She knew Baptstine Petit, the
plaintiff. Witness identified Guillaume
Dessino. When Baptistine returned
from Santa Barbara she took rooms with
the defendant.
Attorney Williams opened the de-
tense by attempting to prove by the
witness that Baptetine was OF unchaste
character. The specific charges, how
ever, referred to acts alleged to have
been committed by Bsptistne after the
alleged seduction, and greatly to Attor-
ney Williams disgust Justice Bartholo-
NEW refused to allow the evidence.
Williams eat down heavily, told the
judge he was wrong, and offered to bet
500 to $40 on his opinion; no takers.
Williams then said he had no more
testimony, had little spat with Attor-
ney Horace Bell, and the defendant was
held to answer in the sum of $1,000.

WHERE'S The SHERIFF.

An Omcsr OF New York Evidently Lost
on the Road.
William Mulligan is the most down
hearted prisoner in the city Jail, owing
to the non-arrival of Sheriff Decker Of
Cstskill, n. Y.
MulligaD was arrested here by Detect
i've Auble on description from the
Sheriff of Greene county, N. T.. which
stated that he was wanted there for
stealing pair of borses.
He made an unsuccessful attempt to
be released under habeas corpus, after
which an examination was held before
Justice Austin as to whether he should
be remanded to the chief OF police,
awaiting the arrival OF an officer from
New York.
Mr.. Mulligan, being a poor man,
could not give the bail set by Judge
Austin and was committed.
Chief Glass has received half dozen
kilograms from Sheriff Decker since he
left Chicago, en- route for this city. The
last one was received yesterday and
stated that Decker had left Sacramento.
He should have arrived here Yesterday.
1t is possible that the sheriff has seen
so much glorious climate since arriving
in the state that he forgot the suffering
prisoner and went to San Francisco to
take in the midwinter fair. However,
he is expected here today.
Mr.. Mulligan feels his unfortunate
position keenly and it falls the heavier
upon him since he is compelled to re-
main in Jail on account OF the sheritf's
hardness. The officer should have ar
rived here last Monday.
The prisoner has resided in Pasadena
several months, where he has the repu-
tation of being an honest and hard
working man.

THE SPARROW WAS PERSISTENT
A Little Bird That Insisted on Visit

The Senate wing of the capitolhad such
a deserted air the other day that fresh
young sparrow thought he would investi-
gate its depths Windows were opened
wide and through one of these the ven
turesome little bird flew, landing dazed
and bewildered on the tiled floor of
the marble room, on the north
side. After getting his bearings, +, he
took flight once more ana tiuttered out
into the dark lobby and took refuge on
the frame of the glass partition at the
west end. Here he was discovered by
Capt. Bassett, who got the long pole
with which he monkeys occasionally with
time, and rooted the feathered visitor
from his perch. One of the pages
grabbed the bird, but it squirmed out of
his hand and darted into the senate
cham Der and did not stop until it had
reached that most sacred of precincts,
the diplomatic gallery.
Here he rested until lively page ran
upstairs and entered the public gallery,
whence he climed over the rail into the
space reserved for foreigners. The spar
row took fright at his approach and iiew
aimlessly about the chamber, while half
a dozen of the boys chased hither and
thlther to capture him. AT last one of
them, a sturdy little South Carolinian,
who is famous for his political opinions
and his great appetite, got the intruder
and bore him in triumph to a window
He opened his little fist and the bird few

darted at last through an open window

bird out of the window, and the disap-

shrubbery and sat there for a long time,
wondering whether he would tackle
large, fat worm that was slumbering on
the ground just beneath him or go out
to Bladensburg and Join the ranks of the
commOnweal. Finally he decided to be
sensible and the worm disappeared.

like most traditions, lacks substantive
confirmation.
Having chosen your pitch, it does not
take you long to get to work; and, if YOU
have fair supply of bait-which ought
not to be at all difficult-you will soon be-
gin to eujoy very reasonabl sport. The
canal swarms with fish and from four to
six, or even to ten pounds, is not a very
unusual take for person who has not
been up the night before, armed with a
big basket of grOund-hait. There are willy
old sportsmen in the town--why is it, by
the way. that shoe makers are always
such inveterate anglers who send an
emissary up over night to ground bait
their pitch, or even go themselves in the
shade of the evening, and who have their
reward.
A thorough fisherman, who loves his
sport for its own sake, will not regret a
few days on the old canal as wasted. In
my then state of mind it was exactly
what | needed. There was none of the
excitement and friction involved in a

such noted resort. You must take all
your luggage with you, and you will prob
ably even bring your own food, unless YOU
choose to have lunch brought for YOU
from the nearest inn. Thus provided for,
the day will pass so quietly and pleas
antly that IL will jar upon you to notice
the shadows lengtheniug, the white
moths beginning to show themselves and
the grass becoming damp with dew. The
true time at which enthusiasts declare
you should close for the day is as soon as
you can see the mist on the surface of the
meadows upon the opposite bank If you

The Thrift of Very Rich Men.


Capt. Money, the celebrated pigeon
shot, now in this country, never overpays
the cabman by penny. Mr. Perry Bel
mont never treats except when he gives
large entertainments. Mr.. John Jacob
Astor, like his father before him, will
spend an hour looking for lost dime.
Mr. Ogden Goelet likes so well TO ecouo-
mize that he has built magnificent man
sion in Newport on hardly enough ground
to surround it, When George Gould
came up to New York from Lakewood to
attend the opera last winter he would go
from his opera box to three of the cheap
est rooms in an uptown hotel. All of
these men are celebrated as exercising
marked self-denial in their distinctively
personal expenditure, however magnifi-
cent their public entertainments may be.
Their grandfathers were all of them
frugal, not to say near. The Nanderbilts
illustrate the same hereditary principle
in very different way for the old com
modore, even in his struggling DAYS
never denied himself the qualification of
the slightest personal wish which he had
the money to pay for, and both the men
and women of the family are now indif-
ferent to small economies.
The fact remains, however, that the
families which keep money the longest
have an instinct for small economies
amounting to a genius, and the trait
is worth cultivating by everybody
who expects TO achieve financial indie

colorings, as well. for there is nothing
obtrusive or heating in their fiaxen tints.
1t is surprising to how great an extent
both tulle and net are being used as trim

more popular, In scarfs aud rosettes for
hats, in puffy, gathered bodice fronts, in

great care in her attempts to copy the ex-

possess that rare discrimination of fine
taste of which the Parisienne may boast,
her combination of many colors may be-
come veritable Babel. in its confusion of

this apply to a costume worn on one of
