A Strong Likelihood of the spectaols's
Being Given Here.
The prospects OF securing the spectacle
of Last Days OF Pompeii in Los Angeles
is growing brighter every Lay, az the
business men become better acquainted
with the plan, and learn the advantage
derived through this agency. Pompeii
will be extensively advertised, and draw
thousands to the city from hundreda OF
miles. People taking advantage of the
low rates made by the railroads running
into the ci9y, avail themselves of the
opportunity to come here not only to
see the spectacle, but to trade.
How often has the question been con-
sidered. What shall DE done to promote
the welfare of the city. to attract the
stranger, and awaken an interest hey ond
our own people? The plsn proposed
by the promoters of the spectacle OF the
last days of Pompeii seems to answer
this question and affords an opportunity
to secure an attraction that is beyond
doubt the best drawing attraction
known. If the business men OF Los An
geles will cooperate by the subscription
for season boxes they will have the
spectacle here before it is presented at
San Francisco or at the midwlnter fair.
Parties subscribing for these boxes get
them for 500 and have 105 OF the
choicest box seats. They are transfera-
bic and can be sold by the subscriber or
given away to out-of-town customers, or
used by merchants as an advertisement.

qui ON a Description Sent
from San Frau

When the gay young Ben Goldberger
left his palatisl home in San Francisco

him that he forgot everything else and
made little effort to conceal his identity.
Mr.. Goldberger, who is probably 20
years OF age, was unaware that Chief
Crowley of San Francisco would like to
have seen him remain there long
enough to explain the meRna by which
he came into possession OF the jewels.
As it was, the chief could only send for
the young man.
Accordingly, Chief Glass yesterday re-
request to arrest him. Detective
Immediately went out and picked up
the much wanted young men.
He refused to tell where he had the
diamonds hidden until Threatened with
imprisonment in a dark cell with only
bread and water as his daily food. He
confessed fully, and went with Detec-
tive Bosqui to the Natick house, where
the valuablea were locked in the safe.
The iewelry consisted of several fine
diamonds and a pair Of dismond-set
bracelets, amounting in ar to $780,
Goldberger arrived hers last Friday or
Saturday and regietered at the hotel
under an assumed name. He is said to
have stolen the diamonds from his
father, who conducts a pawnbroker's
establishment in San Francisco. He ill

should appear before the board in per-
son.
After brief discussion the motion was
lost.
Charges heretofore filed against the
appointment of Jackson Rice on the
regular police by r. A. Collins were
brought up.
Mr.. Collins appeared before the COM
missioners and alleged that Rice had
swindled him out of $3.50 in real es-
tate transaction about two years ago. He
said that Rice represented to him that
he had claim on some government
land in the San Fernando valley, and
persuaded him to go there and look at
the land. They went and Rice pointed
cut the land to him. He paid Rice
something over 500. paper being
drawn up. Later he ascertained that
the land described in the paper was not
that shown by Rice.
Mr.. Rice explained to the commission
that he obtained an option on the land
from man named Pickett, who showed
him the land he showed to Collins. He
acted in good faith in the transaction.
Another charge was made by Mrs.
Skinner, who charged Mr.. Rice with de-
faulting in payment OF rent.
After the hearing the commissioners
went into executive session, but did not
afterwards announce any action taken
upon any matters under consideration.

ASSOCIATED CHARITIES.

An Arrangement Made for the Furnish
ing of Meals.
The Associated Charities have made
arrangements with reliable restaurant
whereby they can give meals at nom
inal price, and have issued meal tickets
which are on sale at their rooms, IL and
IL Court House, at their contract price.
This is great saving to those who
are called upon every hour of the day to
give meal to some unfortunate man or
woman, and is SO arranged that it can
not be used for anything except food,
thereby protecting the donor from any
attempt to purchase intoxicating drinks
with money that would be given for the
necessaries of life.
Gentlemen who are in the habit of
giving out money unfortunately on
the street would find it greatly to their
advantage to invest in the tickets issued
by this organization.
