MoNTEcITo SANITATION.
The Residents Petition for the Formation,
of District.

The Residents Petition for the Formation,
of a District.
SANTA BARBARA, CAL, Oct 9.-The
residents of Montecito have petitioned for
the formation of a sanitary district under
the law of 1891. This is the first attempt
at organization under this law ever made
in this county.
The law provides for the election of a
sanitary board, which shall also sit as
board of equalization, shall have the
power to impose a taxation for
sanitary purposes not to exceed Is
cents on every hundred dollars of valua
ton, and shall have the power to call an
election for the issuance OF bonds to the
amount of 600 for the purpose of
sewerage, etc.
Montecito is the beautiful elevated val
ley adjoining Santa Barbara on the east,
and is chiefly owned and occupied by
people of wealth. The progress of their
movement to secure to their district
perfect sanitary conditions and protection
from all that menace the health OF the val
ley will be watched with interest here.

IN AID OF JOHN PELTON,
A Fund Suggested for the Pio-
neer Schoolteacher of
the State.
Mrs. Eliza Boston at Santa Cruz
Proposed That Public Schools
Contribute.

SANTA CRUZ, CAL, Oct. 9.-John
Pelton, the pioneer schoolteacher, spoke
before the Teachers Institute this after
noon in the Congregational church of this
city. Before he spoke Superintendent
Linscott gave an address in which he
dwelt upon the pioneer educator of the
State and said it was a shame, a crying
shame, and disgrace to the fair name of
California, that this man should be almost
on the verge of starvation.
Mrs. Eliza Boston, a highly esteemed
lady OF this city and for many years
trustee in the public schools of this city,
then spoke and said: "He certainly scat
tered ideas. You have built on what he
founded" p"
She then outlined a plan on which every
one of the children in this State should have
some part in giving for this pioneer edu-
Gator. If each would only give a trife to
the fund, the money realized and put at
interest would be enough to support him.
She said Mr.. Pelton should be taken from
the basis of charity to the basis of Justice
The plan is that every child in the State
should give something, and for those that
were unable 10 give, other children should
give for them, the fund to be placed in the
hands OF the trustees and Pelton to be al
lowed the interest on the fund, as she
thought he had reached the age where he
was incompetent to manage the principal.
Mr.. Pelton then made his address. A
committee was appointed to draft resolu-
tlOns and Will report tomorrow.

ERE THE ANNUAL

The PentathIon contest to be held Satur-
day will be one of the athletic events of
the season, as prominent athletes from all
parts of the State will participate. This
contest, the name of which is derived
from the Greek, signifying a five-pointed
contest, is peculiarly characteristic of the
physical department of the Young Mems
Christian Association, and is held every
year where the State convention takes
place.
The events will be 1o0-yard dash, throw
ing twelve-pound hammer, running high
jump, pole-vauiting and the mile run.
There will be also two-mile bicycle race.
In. the Pentathlon contest eight men
from each association in the State will
enter. The one securing the highest
number Of points will win for himself a
medal, and he, together with the two who
have secured the highest number of
points in the preceding two years, will
compete for the association trophy, which
consists of silk banner.
Three chosen men from each association
in the State will enter the bicycle race,
the winner securing medal for himself
and silver cup for the association which
he represents.
Like almost every other institution in
Los Angeles, the Young Mems Christian
Association here has shown remarkable
growth, and is in fourishing condition.

little headway until William III. Mead of

tary, and took charge of its business man.

Budd was seen this morning with refer
ence to the arrest at Merced of Bank Com
missioners Kiiburn, Fuller and MCGEE at
the instigation of the attorneys for the
depositors of the Merced Bank. He said :
"On Saturday last issued citation to
the Bank Commissioners on chrage made
by the creditors of the Merced Bank. A
complaint was laid before me that the
Bank Commissioners knew during last
year that the bank was insolvent. That
complaint requested me to take action
under the Bank Commissioners act of 1887.
~ Immediately wrote communication
to the Commissioners, notifying them of
the charge of the creditors to the effect
that they had known of the fact that the
bank was insolvent and had kept this
knowledge from the Attorney General
This communication sent by registered
letter, and sent copy to Mr.. McCabe, my
private secretary, telling him to deliver it
in person to the Bank Commissioners
They stated to him that they would fur
nish him with all the letters and data in
their possession touching the condition of
the bank just as soon as they returned to
San Francisco. L shall, of course, look
into the matter thoroughly and see what
there is in the charge that has been made
to me against the Commissioners
'They are supposed to represent the de-
positors, and for this reason have the
right to visit and inspect banks and their
accounts to determine their financial con-
dition. If bank is not solvent they are
supposed to at once report this fact to the
Attorney-General, in order that steps may
be taken without delay to save the de-
positors. 1t often happens that even
where there is run on a bank, or where
it has to close its doors, the institution is
perfectly solvent; but where it is not the
Commissioners are supposed to place the
facts in their possession before the Attor-
ney- y-General at the earliest possible time,
in order that the depositors may not suf-
fer"
Andrew j. Clunie of San Francisco was
here last Saturday in the interests of the
creditors of the Merced Bank. but Governor
Budd did not deem it proper to let the
fact become public until aft er the citation
had been served. The Gov ernor had then
no advices other than the press reports,
and could not speak further on the sub
ject.
MERGED, CAL, Oct. e-The Grand Jury
to-day paid its respects to the Bank Com
missioners for dereliction of duty in the
Merced Bank affair. They also severely
condemned the directors and officers of the
defunct bank for gross mismanagement of
the funds intrusted to their care by inno-
cent depositors.

Ho,c Honaan Vas Made to Testify
against Her Brutal Husband.
PORTLAND, Or, Oct. 9.-When Mrs.
Caroline Kaine appeared in Justice Gies-
ler's court to-day to prosecute her husband
for nearly beating her to death and then
drawing revolver to kill her, she defiantly
told the court she would not testify against
her husband. 1t was a peculiarly aggra-
waited case, and the woman presented a
pitiful appearance when she had sworn
out the complaint. Justice Giesler sized
up the prisoner arraigned for trial and
then lost his temper.
I'm sorry can't enact law providing
a whipping post for these habitual wife
beaters of Portland the Justice said.
"What did you swear to this complaint
for?"
Because 1 was afraid of my life But l
won't testify against nv husband"
Then you'll go to jail, announced the
Justice, who was trying "a new precedent.
81 m tired of this sort of thing"
Mrs. Kaine relented and changed her
mind while she was being taken to jail,
and then agreed to tell the circumstances
She said her husband was insanely and
unjustly jealous of her, and had beaten
her till she was unconscious Monday
night. He then drew a revolver and was
going to kill her. but she jumped out of
bed and ran. Kaine was held to the Grand
jury.

cornerstone of the building was laid on
December 6, 1886, but on account of the
slowness with which subscriptions came
in but little progress was made until 1888,
when it was left in an uncompleted con-

1892 was the building completed and fully

WOMEN At Los ANGELES,
The Last Day of the Parlia-
ment Drew Very Large
Audience.
Wife and Wage-Earner Discussed
From Various and Sundry
Points of View.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Oct. 9.-The Sec
ond and last day of the Woman's Parlia-
ment drew large audience to the First
Methodist Episcopal Church. The subject
announced was symposium of women
suffrage from the standpoint of wife,
mother, workingwomen, business women,
professional women and politician.
The first paper was read by Mrs. Carlista
Willard Scott of Fairmount. She believed
that the ideal wife of to-day expands her
activities in every direction. avoids antag-
onizing man, but her present limitations
prevent her filling her highest destiny.
Mrs. Katherine Phillips Edison, grad
uate of Vassar, from the standpoint of a
mother presented an interesting and logi-
cal paper and delivered it in an earnest and
convincing manner.
Mrs. Mary Y. Bowman claimed that
woman needs the ballot for several reasons:
She is amenable to law; to give her equal
pay with men for equal work; because she
is a taxpayer; because it is Just; because,
in the census of 1890, out of 65, ,000, 600 peo-
pie more than 100000 are woman wage
earners and a vast number widows and
maids.
Miss Gabrielle Stickney defined the work
ing woman as one ''who does with her
might what her hands find to do" She

cessity of the representation of the great
mass of worklngwomen IN legislative
halls.
A very unique paper was read by Mrs.
Harriet Strong, who owns a large ranch
devoted to orange and walnut culture. To
the professional woman an open market
was as necessary as to man, and suffrage
was as necessary to her advancement.
Trade per Sc has no sex" said she;
neither should the ballot have sex" Mrs.
Elizabeth G. Young of Lordsburg read the
last paper before adjournment reviewing
the subject politically. Her address was a
fitting ending to this most successful, en-
tertaining and beneficial convention, being
full OF vitality, sparkling with wit and
strong in logic. The interest manifested
in this parliament makes the gathering
next year something to look forward to-
The papers were temperate throughout
were far above the average generally pre-
sented at such gatherings, and not one ad-
verse criticism has been heard. The par
lament was an unqualified success.

HIS AIM PROVED FATAL.
Lawyer Jennings Killed and
His Brother Mortally
Wounded.
THEY HAD PASSED THE LIE,
A Quarrel Originating over the
Trial of a Boy for steal
ing Beer.

NEW YORK. y. Y, Oct. "a Recorder
spccial from Woodward, o. T., says:
LAWYER Ed Jennings of this place was
shot dead in court last night, and his
brother another lawyer, John Jennings,
was rortallv wounded. The men who did
the shooting were ex-senator Temple
Houston of Texas, the oldest son OF
General Sam Houston, and ex-Sheriff
...Jack" Love of Woodward.
A case was being tried before Just ice
Miller, in which boy was charged with
stealing a keg of beer from the Santa Fe
Railroad depot. In the course of the
examination of witnesses, the lie was
passed from the Jennings boys to ex-Sena
Tor Houston and ne resented it. The law
gers jumped TO their feet, pulled revolvers
and began firing, but the court and its
officers restored order before anybody was
hurt.
After the adjournment of court ex-Sen
aror Houston and Sheriff Love went to the
= Cabinet saloon, a political resort, and
while they were taking a drink the Jen
nings brothers came in and the quarre
was resumed. All pulled their pistol:
again, including ex-Sheriff Love, who is 6
game frontiersman and dead shot.
At the first fire Ed Jennings fell dead on
the floor and never uttered a word. When
John Jennings was raising his revolver hi:
arm was pierced through and his pistol fel
on the floor. He was shot again through
the body, but had vitality enough left te
run out OF the saloon and up the street
100 feer, where he fell. He is not yet dead
but he cannot live until morning.
j OF
went to the Sheriff house and gave them
selves up. The Coroner held an inquest
the jury rendering verdict in accordance
with the facts, but failing to lay the blame
on anybody.
Temple Houston is one of the bes
orators in the Southwest, his speech nomi-
mating ex-senator Regan several years age
being most able. His speech delivered at
the dedication of the new State Capito
was also very eloquent. He is 45 years old
