douches, snuts, powders or astringents, be-

WANTS HIM REMOVED.
An Editor Files Serious Charges
Against a Chief of Police.

SEATTLE. Wash, Oct. 12-John Col
Inns. leader of the King County Democracy
and proprietor of the Seattle Telegram, TO-
day fled petition with the Police Com
mission. making charges against Chief of
Police Bolton Rogers and asking for
hearing and the removal of the Chief,
The charges are in substance that when
Rogers was Chief from April, 1891, to
March. 1892, he gave gamblers immunity
from arrest on payment to him of a per-
centage of their winnings; that he fur
nished John w. Couside. the Democratic
First Ward leader, with capital TO start
gamblipg-house and shared in its win
niDgs; that he gave similar immunity
from arrest to women of bad repute; that
this depleted the revenue of the city by
cutting off the fines and licenses; that on
September be interfered with the Repub-
lican primary election in the First Word.
The charges were MADE in general terms
in the Telegram some months ago and
were then made the basis Of a charge Of
criminal libel against its editor, C. II.
Lugrin, by Rogers. The Superior Court
dismissed the case few days ago. be-
cause the word daily" was inserted in
the complaint in the neme of the paper.

DALLIN'S AIR ROAD.
He Explains His Plans to Half a
Dozen People.

DOLSh SOOfSs
William Dallin, who recently arrived
here from Chicago in the hope of securing
a portion Of the $500. 100000 with which he
intends to construct an air line from this
side of the continent 10 the other, gave
his views of railrOading 10 the air to half a
dozen people at the Chamber of Commerce
last evening.
He opened by mentioning that the CON-
pany which was fostering the enterprise
had been founded four years ago in Chi
cagO and was given the little "a tlaDtic and
Pacific Railroad Cons truclion Company"
and that since its formation the directors
have been preparing for the erection Of
0nnble-track air line railroad from New
York to San Francisco.
He explained that the great highway,
rs now surveyed between New York aud
Chicago, will shorten the distance 200
miles over all other railroads, while the
distance between Chicago and San Fran
cisco will be shortened over 400 miles. The
projectors have contemplated from the
very inception of the enterprise the max
ing it an integral part OF the Government.
y bill is now being prepared to be pre-
sented TO Congress at its next winters
session placing the entire enterprise under
the supervision of the Government Tor its
Endorsement of the bonds of the road.
Mr.. Dallln, who is vice. president and
general manager of the company. is in
hopes Of placing at least So. COG, 900 worth
of the roads stock on tbs coast, which
need not be paid up until the line is CON-
pleted. He depends largely upon England
as market for most of the stock.
The course. Oh paDer, of Mr.. Daliin's
contemplated road over the continent is
simple enough, consisting of broad
black line drawn straight across the map
OF the United States from this city to New
York.
As yet the scheme has met with but
little support here. which. however, seems
to have but little effect upon its promoter,
who says ne will force the ruad upon San
Francisco if he has TO build l. himself.

JOE DAVIS DEAD.
The AuctiOneer Falls on

He Expires in the Police Patrol
Wagon-A Well-known Charac-
ter in the Days of Gold.

Joseph Davis, the old auctioneer, whose
Going, going, gone" was first heard in
California when the arzonauts we're
swarming over the mountains, has Joined
the great majority. Death came to him
while he was being borne in the police
patrol wagon to the Receiving Hospital yes
terday afternoon.
The dead auctioner was &C years old.
He was native of England and came to the
coast with the gold-tinders. Early i'm the
fiiiies he opened an auctioneer's shop at
Sacramento, and, after dong business for
few years in that rushing town, came
to this city. He was very successful in
Sacramento and fortune followed him to
his new field of activity. In 1874 he
opened an Office on Pine street and con-
tinued there as an auctioneer and Commits
sion merchant until his death.
The deceased was captain of miljtarv
company in Sacramento, and the title

death was wholly unexpected, as he WAS

l.. Won BEETHOVEN
His Eroica " Played at
the Auditorium.
A Larger Audience Than Ever at
SCheel'S Fourth Symphony
Concert.

For the first time since Schee has opened
the Auditorium, Beethoven was the hero
of the evening. The portrait Of the great
German composer. framed in smilax. occu-
pied prominent position on the platform,
and his third symphony, the "Eroica,"
the place of honor on the programme.
All things considered. the work was
very well performed. Scheel has a re-
markable faculty for showing the sunny.
lively side of Beethoven. There are so
many conductors who always take the
great Ludwig seriously and seek out hid
den meanings Of deep thought, even IN
his rapid movements. that the merri-
ment of ScheePs scherZ0s and ale
gro vivaees Is DELIGHTFULLY."- refreshing.
The complicated scherzo and the
finale last night were examples of this.
They went with what the French would
describe by that untran slatab!e word
'elan," and even if the horns and the reeds
made a few little slips, the genius Of the
conductor carried them through brilliantly.
The shading of the Funeral March was
very finished, and the solemnity OF its in
depreciation was in great contrast to the
hilariIy of the other movements. The
viOiiDs, however, have done better work
than they rendered in the ''Eroica" last
night.
Weber's "Invitation to the Dance"
opened the second part of the programme.
1t received considerable applause, but not
nearly so much as Max Bruch's 'Kol
Nidrei" (All my vows. a prayer for The
eve OF the day of atolement. This work.
which is written as a solo for the cello
with an orchestral accom- paniment, Is Of
religious character. Ii delighted the hear
ers. and Carl Grienauer, the cello sOloist,
received an ovation. He responded by
playing Peppers "Elfentanz" An cal
bumblatt," by Wagner. and the overture
10 der Freischueiz" concluded the con-
cert.
The audience, as usual. at the symphony
concert was very fashionable one. So
many people were present that even the
remote side seats 10 the gallery were we'll

the occasion by presenting every one who

STATE FLORAL SOCIETY.
Palms, Their Uses and Culture Dis
cusSed by the Members.

The State Floral Society held its regular
monthly meeting in its rooms on Suffer
street yesterday afternoon. Only one pa
per was presented, and that was by John
Sievers, on the culture and uses of palms.
The writer thought the culture of the
palm was no easy task, providing that the
grower expected good results from his
trees. and especial care" said Mr.. Sievers,
should be taken in preparing the soil.
There Is some ground which is wholly unfit
for the production of a fine tree. PALM
trees should be transplanted when the
earth has become exhausted, and partieu-
lar pains should be taken to see that the
roots are not cut. When traDsplanted as
much earth as possible should be gathered
around the roots when the tree is taken
up. A great many people failed to supply
enough moisture for their trees. This
should not be overlooked"
be attributed the failure of many grow
ers to the lack of water. The uses of the
palm were treated of at length. At the
conclusion of the reading of The paper
Mr.. Sievers was Intercepted by number
of the ladies as to the best methods Of CAL
ing for date palms.
The resignation of Z. S. Akin, secretary
OF the society. was received and accepted.
Miss Rudolph was chosen to fill the va
cancy. The office of recording secretary
was created, but the place will not be filed

VERY HARD LUCK.
Rather Storm a Fort

of His Case in the Justices
Court.

Baron Edward Won Egberts was in JUS
tice Barry's court yesterday, this time as
plaintiff.
He recently appeared in the Police Court
as defendant and the defendant of yester-
day morning was then plaintiff.
But Baron Won Egberts' luck Is against
him.
And that not because the baron is an un-
worthy man.
But luck has been against him for many
years. He is sixty years of age, tall. erect
and sturdy; his abundant hair perfectly

1t was Kaiser's failure to pay this debt

And for that he had suffered the ignominy

And so he sought to even things up in the
