There has been an unexplainable
Napoleonic craze in the United States this
last year, but none of the writers have
dealt with the Little Corsican from the
standpoint of the modern science of
criminology and mental and moral dis
ease and perversion. This the Hon John
Davis does in the Arena, and he makes a
good case from Napoleon's ancestry and
the careers of his parents, to show that
the great general and exploiter was a
born brigand, with all the gambling and
lying deceitful INSCRIPTIONS instincts of
the Corsican bandits on sea and land.

Hoke Smith, one of Cleveland's happy
cabinet family was in Georgia recently
were he delivered some anti=silyer
speeches which contained as much rubbish
to the square inch as could be packed into
similar bits of demogogy. They were SO
bad that even the Cecil Wing is praisine
them after the following manner. Hoke
should ask like the Greek statesman
what crime have committed that my
enemies praise me?''
The Wing says of Hoke's effort,
''The speeches of Mr. Smith are not by
any means so able as those of Mr.. Carlisle,
yet they go quite as far possibly, as the
most determined opponent of The silver
movement could ask, in exposing the
failacies and sophistries Of the free
coiners."
The only "fallacies and sophistries'
Hoke exposed were his own, and the
reason why his speeches were not $50
able as those of Mr.. Carlisle" is because
Carlisle's were a rehash of John Sher-
mans old speeches OH the subject, who
was employed some years ago by "Baron"
Rothschilds to make these speeches.

why not restore the name of Porter's

BROTHERS. LOVE.
The Mysterious Source
of Prices Aid.
The Man Who Furnished
the Money.
He Was Here a Month Under
an Assumed Name.
He Saw the Murderer's Dead Body
Last Saturday Morning and
Left That Night.

On Saturday night among the outgo-
ing passengers was a man who might
have been able to throw a great deal of
light upon the escape of Price and
Young from the county Jail. His pres-
ence in the city accounts for the fact
that Price was able to leave town with
$3.50 on the night of his escape. That
is the amount Young says he had and
of which he says they spent $50. The
source of the money was a mystery
from the beginning.
Though Price had many irie Ids who
wished him safe out OF the country, it
was known that he had none who could
or would contribute go large sum.
This man is said to have been the MUIR
derer's brother, not the one who ar
rived here soon after mis- arrest and
remained in town only three or four
davs, but another who came here just
before the beginning OF the trial. He
stopped at prominent hotel and reg.
istered under an assumed name. He
was at the court house frequently in
the course of the trial, but seemed to
take only visitors interest in the
proceedings. He never visited the
murderer in the JAIL though it is sus-
pected that he was among large num-
ber of hobos who were arrested and
sent to the jail for short terms during
the time intervening between the trial
and the escape.
The day following the jail break it
was reported that .ice's brother had
been in town the day before with a
large sum of money. How the
rumor arose is not known, but
it received no credence. Only the
brother who had been here and had gone
away was thought of, and his face was
so familiar that hundred men would
have recognized him.
1t is remem bered that this man be-
trayed deep anxiety during the two OF
three days preceding the news OF the
capture. He is said to have gone to the
Jail yard last Saturday morning to look
a. the body of the murderer.
1t is believed that this man is the
John Calvin whose name is included ir
the complaint upon which Burson ano
Hamilton were arrested yesterday
Whether the authorities suspect this OF
not or whether they have come into the
possession of that name and believe il
to be merely the name of some &C
quaintance or friend of Price is mo-
known.
There will probably be Developments
concerning this mysterious brother Al

SACRAMENTO, CAL, Jan. 7.--Some-
thing of a sensation was created here
this afternoon when Attorney General
Hart made public his opinion in which
he holds that the election of Budd as
governor cannot be contested before
the legislature, and that Budd must be
inaugurated.
However, the special committee, who
are here to represent the Republican
state organization and bring on the
contest in the interest of Estee. went
right on about their business. Mr..
Ross, as spokesman for the committee,
simply declared that General Hart's
opinion was not good law. He and his
colleagues then hurried around among
the Republican members again to urge
the immediate passage of an act under
which Budd would be prevented from
taking the oath of Office.
They are simply carrying out their
plan formulated last Friday at meet
ing OF the Republican state cautfal
committee, and when the Repu blicans
reassem bied in caucus tonight they
had prepared bill under which Aey
hope to seat the Republican goyern0r.

THE CITY COUNCIL.
Pressure Applied in Municipal
InprOVem entS.


The city council met last night in
regular moathly session. The usual
monthly bills were audited. the most
important of which was one for 81 400
by Redmond Toohey for street grading.
A proposition was received from City
Attorney Israel for codifying the city
ordinances. The terms were discussed,
but on account OF the absence of Coun-
Gilman Goldberg the matter went over
to special meeting. A committee of
three was appointed to assess the bene
fits to certain property on West Wash
ington street, along which sidewalks
have been ordered laid. The property
is held by nonresident owners. Upon
the report of the committee the cost of
laying the sidewalks will be assessed
against the property to be lien upon
it until paid. The interest in this pro-
ceeding lies in the fact that it is the
first instance under the amended char
ter for forcing municipal improve
ments.
Alderman Lacy was appointed
committee TO superintend the replant-
ing of trees and flowers in Neahr's ad-
dition plaza.
The council adjourned to meet with
the chamber of commerce tonight to
take action upon the celebration of the
arrival of the north and south road.

BRIEF FREEDOM.
BurSon and Hamilton Rear
rested.
Before the U. S. Com
missioner to AnsWerto the
Territorial Law.

The cases of James Burson and Nor
ris Hamilton, under arrest for having
facilitated the escape of Price and
Young from the county jail, were heard
by Commissioner Crenshaw yesterday
afternoon in the district court room.
The government was represented by
United States District Attorney Ellin-
wood and the prisoners by Geo. Percy
Bullard.
The prosecution was not vigorous as
it was a foregone conclusion that the
defendants would be dismissed. The
cases were only brought in the federal
department at all because Young was a
United States prisoner. 1t was discov-
cred after the arrest that there was no
federal statute covering the case and
that even if the only statute relating to
jail breaking had been sufficiently de-
scriptive the penalty was inadequate.
Outside participants in Jail break
can commit crime against the govern
ment only by assisting with force"
They might be waiting outside with a
herd of horses and an arsenal for the
use of prisoners who are breaking their
own way out. They may conceal the
prisoners and administer all sorts of aid
and comfort to them with impunity.
It was plain, therefore. that these
defendants were innocent of any viola
tion of the federal law, unless it could
be shown that they had introduced
means into the jail by which the pris-
oners had been aided in making the
break.

Price and Young after the fight and

This great emotional drama, which

OF purchasing some new instruments.
Some of our readers know this play Is
Mr.. Irvlng's masterpiece. In the part
of Matthias he made himself famous
and in one night sprang from obscurity
to fame. The play is full of intensely
dramatic situations and the story of the
crime of Matthias, the killing of the
Polish Jew and the terrible remorse
that seizes him, is one of thrilling in
terest. The dream scene in the third
act holds the audience spellbound, =,
while Matthias stung by conscience and
terrible remorse describes the details OF
his crime to the spectral tribune.
Mr.. Clifford Pembroke will undertake
this very difficult part of Matthias and
it is safe to say that he will play this
part we'll, as he is familiar with all the
details of this play, having been con-
nected with Henry Irving's lyceu m
company for some time. The band
boys are busy rehearsing the new
