BAD NIGHT FOR SPIRITS
LIVELY TINE AT A SEANCE ON
BROADWAY.
The NATURALIZATION Was Unsatisfaot0.
~, Fraud Was Charged, and
tho Medium Refunded
the Coin.

There was . very lively time at
spiritualistic seance given at 7071a South
Broadway last evening. The operator
was a man calling himself REV. Prof."
Howten. who it is said recently came
here from San Francisco. The reveren
professor first dswned upon the epirit-
ualistio world OF Los Angeles last Sum-
2351a South Spring street.
The manifestations at that time. 80
some. particularly one or two local me-
diums. say, were not satisfactory, the
spirits failing to materialize to a con-
vincing degree. Ex-Policeman G. s.
Boone was one Of those who were
dissatisfied at Sundays meeting
and concluded that he would investigate
the reverend professors materializing
abilities. With this end in view Mr..
Boone last evening organized party
composed of G. w. Riley, II. w. Wat
son, John w. Lester, John Ii. Stephen
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Merithew and
went to the residence OF Mrs. DIR. Good
rich, at the number stated on South
Broadway, and what happened is best
told in Mr.. Boone's own words.
"My object" said Mr.. Boone, twas to
expose the man, for at Sundays meeting
made up my mind that he
was fraud. On entering the
parlor we scattered and did not sit
all together. There were probably 25 or
80 people there besides ourselves and
we mixed in with them. took seat
on sofa near the cabinet, which was
formed of black curtains in one corner
uf the room. Noar me was man seated
OH raised chair whom / think was An
assistant of the medium, as l could
hear him telsgraphing during the go
called ssshce. The professor made his
appearance after the lights were turned
down and produced what he said was
the spirit of child whose name in
life was MiIlie. No one in the
audience recognized the spirit, but l
could see from where sat that it was
nothing but piece of white cloth, that
the professor had wrapped about his
right hand and was being pushed for-
ward from behind the black curtain. l
cried fraud and ierked the curtain
down, at the same time demanding the
return OF my money.
"Fhe room was in an uproar in mo-
mont, and when the lights were turned
up the professor began to expostuiate
and call for an officer. Mr.. jackson re-
| sponded, snd We all demanded return
of our money. This amounted to several
dollars. the admission being so cents.

Oass.
An opinion by the supreme court in
the case of the Savings Bank of San
Diego county, respondent. vs.. Ann
Burns, appellant, was received yester-
day for filing by Deputy Clerk Sesnon.
1t was an action to foreclose mortg-
age. The defendant demurred to the
complaint on the ground that the plain
tiff had not complied with the act of
April 1, 1876, and in making the loan
had violated section 578 OF the civil
code, with reference to officers of a saw.
ings or loan corporation loaning or bor-
rowing for themselves or agent.
The supreme court holds that the
court below did not err in assuming
that the act of April 1st was effectually
repealed and in sustaining the demurrer.
Also that the case was within the well
recognized exceptions to the general
rule. in regard to the violation OF the
civil code referred to. The judgment ia
therefore affirmed.

George Cartwright met with ghastly
surprise on returning 10 his home, 115
North Rio street, yesterday afternoon.
His wife, whom he had left couple OF
hours previously, was lying dead on the
floor OF bedroom behind locked door.
Mr.. Cartwright attributes his wife's
death to natural causes, and states that
she was subject to heart failure. An in-
vestigation will, however. be made by

singular.
Mr.. Cartwright, who is employed in
the Santa Fe rolling mills, came here
with his family from Niles, o., in July
last, giving up regular employment and
nice home in the Buckeye state for the
promise of regular work in the mills
here. This he did not get, and Mrs.
Cartwright has, to neighbors. given
voice to expressions showing that she
was despondent.
The family consists OF four children,
the youngest OF whom is only Is months
old. and the woman was soon to become
a mother again.
Mr.. Cartwright says he left his wife at
2:30 O'Clock to 20 to the mills; at that
time she was in the best of spirits and
was making preparations to take the
children out for strest car ride.

The Historical soo,ety.

The Historical society held its regular
monthly meeting for November last
evening. Mr.. H. d. Barrows read a
valuable historical paper entitled A
Biographical and Character Sketch of
the Late ex-Governor, Don Pho Pico.
Don Pho Pico was born ct the San
Gabriel mission May 5, 1901, and died
in this city September /. 1894. His
life extended almost through the nine
teenth century.
From early manhood ne took an active
part in the important events of Cslifor-
MIA history. He was twice governor OF
California, from 1882 to 1888. and from
February. 1S45. to August 1846, when
he was driven out of California by the
Americans. Mr.. Barrows vigorously de-
Tended Pho Pico against the charge of
issuing fraudulent land grants. There
was no proof that he did. The calumi-
MES against him were uttered for the
purpose OF making q case against him
and some of it arose from race preju'
dices. Resolutions of respect to his
memory were adopted by the society.
