does not offer very great attractions
and will hardly be accepted.

GRADUATING EXERCISES at

MRADUATING EXERCISES at
vi Worcester academy last Thurs
day morning were certainly credltable
to the institution, the faculty, ard to
the graduates themselves. The first
honors very deseryedly went to Miss
Ollie Allen, the daughter OF Mr.. and
Mrs. A. c. n. Allen, and the second to
Ralph Green. Their respective re-
wards were a certificate emitting them
to a year and to half year tuition at
Drury college, and It Is a pleasure to
learn that probably both prizes will be
utilized. The corps Of teachers for
next year was selected Thursday eve
ming. Prof. Ellis, from Willow
Springs, Mo-, becomes principal, and
his wife also takes place in the
school. Miss Hardy and Miss Fayant
are retained in the positions hereto
fore occupied, and Miss Graper will
probably return TO the music depart
ment. II. O. Cook and w. r. Bad
gett were elected as members the
board of trustees, the official terms OF
L. b. Bell and NJ. Fmzee having ex
pired. DR.. Bagby was elected pres
ident OF the board and Mr.. Ratclif
and Mr.. Milford reelected to th'
offices of treasurer and secretary, re
spectiyely. The closing up OF th'
years work with a deficit emphasized
the necessity Of doing strictly casl
in advance business, and next term NJ

is almost imperative that we have
pure water during the hot summer

Interpreter Geffeney stated that he had
no means of knowing whether the sig
nature of R. G.. Penn, United States Com
missioner of Emigration at Victoria, was
genuine or not. On the back of the card is

o. Matzomoto, another of the Walla
Walla's Japanese passengers, was ex-
ahmed as to how and where he got letters
and envelopes found on his person. He
said that as he could neither read nor
write he did not know anything about the
letters or envelopes.
One envelope bears the address, "Messrs
S. Tsugawa and L. Okuba, care Mr.. H. A
Bassford, Vacaville, Solano County, Cal,
U. S. A.
The witness was pressed for answer as to
where he got the letters and he answered:
If tell the truth will it be all right?"
He was answered that no harm would
come to him. He took second thought
and said he did not know anything about
the envelopes, for he found them on floor
in the Victoria Hotel. AT last, after good
mlssioners, the witness acknowledged that
he was bound for Vacaville and carried the
envelope SO that he would know where
to go.
Letters and empty envelopes found upon
several Japanese laborers on the steamers
indicate that S. Tsugawa and L. Okuba of
Vacaville are getting number of Japanese
coolies from Victoria.
The investigation will be resumed to-day.

TROUBLE FOR DAVIS.
The Fast Young Man From Rochester
Is Locked Up in the City
Prison.

Warrants were sworn out yesterday in
the Police Court for the arrest of J. c..
Davis and his wife, the newly married
couple from Rochester, N. Y, on charges
of obtaining goods under false pretenses
The complainant is the Sterling Furniture
Company, who claim that the couple de-
frauded them by ordering and securing
goods from them, and rendering in pay
ment a check which was found to be worth
less.
After the couple were arrested, Mrs.
Davis was released on her own recog.
nizance by Police Judge Campbell
While she went around with her hus-
band when he transacted his business with
checks and drafts which were not worth
the paper they were written on among
various business firms Mrs. Davis is not
looked upon by the police as being in any
way an accomplice. She is related to very
wealthy and respectable people of Roches-
ter and feels keenly the disgrace which her
husband has brought on himself and her.
She has already communicated with her
relatives, and they will in all probability
send on sufficient money to pay the losses
OF her husbands victims.
1t is likely that some of the others who
were victimized by Davis will prefer
charges against him.

THE JUDGE WAS ABSENT,
A Novel Law Point Raised for the
Dismissal of
Suif

A novel point of law was introduced in
Justice of the Peace CAROLS court yester-
day morning when the case of the Chicago
Clock Company against Frank Shay was
called. The suit was originally brought to
replevin goods bought by Shay from the
company and for which he had not paid.
1t was partly tried by Judge Carroll and
continued to June Z.
Both parties to the cause were on hand,
but the Judge failed to put in an appear
ance at the hour to which he had con-
tinued the hearing. Afterward he set the
case for. yesterday. Shay moved for
dismissal on the ground that the court had
lost jurisdiction by reason of having con-
tinued the cause fol- more than twenty
four hours without the consent of the de-
PENDANT. The latter's attorney argued at
some length on this point, but the court
refused to grant the motion.
Shay then had writ of prohibition
issued by the Superior Court restraining
Judge Carroll from acting in the case. The
writ was issued by Judge Hebbard and
made returnabIe before Judge Sanderson
on the 28th inst. The writ commands
Carroll to show cause why he should not
be absolutely restrained and prohibited
from any further proceedings in the cause.

its operations, and makes promises, as
