THE CHRISTMAS MARKET
Repetition Of the Operetta The Land
of Nod
Conclusion Of the Fair Yesterday Attended
by a Large Number Of Visitors
Delightful Affair

A matinee of the operetta, The Land of
Nod, was given with fine effect yesterday
at Music hall, and made successful close
of the Christmas market, which in origin
atty of detail, and for methods of enter
tainment, stands foremost among the func-
tons of like nature given this season.
There was some delay in the opening of
the performance owing to the hardness of
the King of Nod, but after his arrival the
play went on smoothly and gently to the
delight Of the number of little folks in the
audience. The king, U. T. Bidweil, was in
fine voice. and his songs were received
with enthusiasm.
Miss all o Meade made picturesque
Mother Goose, in peaked hat and carr, ing
the historic broom. Master Ollie Harvey,
as Prince OF Dreams, was accorded the
heariesi reception for the spirit and grace
of his perform ince and for his courtly
presence. which was not a little ac-
centuated by q splendid costume of old
rose plush with hanging cape, and large
hat covered with dropping plumes of black.
Inc Princess OF Dreams, who guarded the
couches of four lovely little sleepy heads,
summoned fast asleep to the Court of Nod,
made pretty picture in ethereal robes of
b ue. The funny company of Brownies
and the merry Sandman and Jack o.
Dreams were highly entertaining to the
audience of children, and their antics were
hailed with storms of delight.
Little Miss Nellie Lockwood performed
the skirt dance with such skill and grace
that she was obliged to respond to an
encore.
The music of the operetta is exceptional
Iy pretty and was we'll rendered with the
assistance of Willey's orchestra.

A Queer Case of Grand Larceny

~
Thomas Powers, whose arrest was men,
toned in yesterdays HERALD, was ar
raigned before Township Justice Young
yesterday on a charge of grand larceny,
the complaining witness being Mrs. S. F.
johnson. The charge covers quite an
amusing case. Mrs johnson has hope
full son and Mr.. Powers ditto. Mrs. John.
sons son had shotgun and Mr.. Powers
son had horse, which he had procured
from the poundmaster. The Powers boy
became fired with an ambition to own a
shotgun and perform marvellous feats in
the duck shooting line. He met cordial
response when he tackled young johnson
for trade. The latter became tired of
his gun and eagerly accepted the proposal
of young Powers to swap his gun for the
horse. The exchange was effected, but
then the trouble began. When Mrs. John
sons son led his new acquisition home his
mother was vastly pleased with his acquisi-
tiveness and saw very much less danger in
a horse than gun.
Such satisfactory state of affairs did
not exist in the Powers household. When
the young man came Juggling home his
his father greeted him with stern disap-
proval and used strong language.
He insisted that the trade did not &C, in
spite of his sons fearful EXPLANATIONS that
it had went. He made his son take the
gun and marched him over to the Johnson
bailiwick, where he insisted that the boys
should trade back. Mrs. johnson de-
injured, but it was overruled by the
aroused paterfamilias and he proceeded to
trade anyhow. He took possession of the
horse after he left the gun and led him
back to his own house, telling his son that
il he ever caught him doing such trick
again he would swear him OUT"

1t is Attacked Upon a Number
of Grounds !
TAKEN UNDER AMUSEMENT
An Opinion by Judge Van Dyke in an
Important Case
He Holds That County officers Are Entitled
to PAY for Time Served Over Their
TERMS -0eneral Court News

In department one of the superior court
before Judge Smith, yesterday morning
when the case of Coroner George w. Camp.
bell, charged with perjury, was called for
the accused to plead, demurrer was pre-.
sented by his counsel, General A. B. Camp
bell, and argued at some length. The in
dictment was attacked upon several
grounds, the principal one being that the
charge was indefinite, and that perjury
could not be assigned under the laws OF
California for the accounts presented by
the defendant.
After hearing the argument, Judge Smith
intimated that he was of the opinion that
the weight of the authorities was with the
defense. Deputy District Attorney Nc
Comas was not prepared to concede that
this was the case. and asked for time In
which to file brief.
The court accordingly took the matter
under advisement.

BACK FROM SAN DIEGO
| Mayne is Again in His Cell at the County
| all

Wayne is Again in His Cell at the County
Jail.
Sheriff Burr returned from San Diego
yesterday afternoon, bringing with him
Clifton L. Mayne, who was again locked
upin the county Jail. Mr.. Burr said that
his trip was without incident, and that
Mayne gave him no trouble. Mayne ap-
peared to be greatly benefited by his trip.
Deputy Martin Aguirre did not come with
Mr.. Burr, but was left in charge of Mrs.
Shipton, at San Diego, with instructions to
bring either the woman or good bond on
the evening train. Mr.. Agurre did not get
in, from which it is inferred that Mrs. Ship
ton gave bond and that the deputy re-
manned over.
Sheriff Burr was very indignant over
what purported to be an interview with
him, published in the San Diego Union. in
which he is represented as using the fol-
lowing language:
II do not believe Mayne is guilty. /
worked hard to secure his conviction, be-
cause I believed him guilty of the fearful
crime charged against him. Now l am
convinced that he is innocen and has
been sinned against. l believe there will
be startling developments at LOS Angeles
within the next few days-possibly before
| return. Just the moment Elsie Shipton
is separated from the Wrights the whole
truth VIII come OUT, ana Rayne Will De
free man. ! would not be surprised to
hear of arrests made at any time. l have
not seen the warrants, but l expect the
move"
Mr.. Burr emphatically dtnies that he
used any such language. He refused to
give any opinion as to the guilt or inno-
cence of Mayne, nor did he intimate that
he believed him innocent. Mr.. Burr says
that the talk with the reporter only lasted
few minutes, and the Published inter.
view is tissue of Misrepresentation.

Ii Fayor Of the Officers

In department four of the superior court,
yesterday, Judge Van Dyke gave his decis-
ion in the case of f. Z. Hewitt vs.. The
County of Los Angeles, involving the right
of county officers to collect pay for SER
vices for the time they serve after their
terms expire. This action was brought by
the late Col E. E. Hewitt in the justices
court to recover $50 salary as county tax
collector for the period of five days, from
January 2 to January 8, 1893. A decision
was given against the plaintiff, from which
an appeal was taken. Col. Hewitt was
elected in November, 1892, and entered
upon his official duties January 2, 1893 at
IL o'clock noon, that being the first Mon
day after the first day of January of that
year. He served until January z, 1898,
when he surrendered the office to A. H.
Merwin, the incumbent. He was refused
payment for the time he served in January,
the county claiming that he was not enti-
tied to it, inasmuch as he was paid for the
full two years term, $4,000 per annum. In
the opinion filed by Judge Van Dyke in the
case, after reciting the facts involved, he
holds that the county government act
supersedes the political code with refer
ence to the terms of office, and leaves out
the provision that county officers shall
hold office for two years, providing that
they shall take Office the first Monday
after the first day of January, succeeding
the election. After discussing the defini-
ton of the word year, the court holds that
under the law existing when tax collector
Hewitt was elected and served, ne was en-
titled to the compensation specified up to
the time he surrendered the Office, which
would be five days over the two calendar
years, amounting to $50, for which judg-
men. is rendered.
In this connection, it will be remembered
that Judge Shaw has heretofore given an
adverse opinion on the same subject, in
the case of Il. E. Lopez, eX-county auditor,
ct al. Suit was brought by Mr.. Lopez on
behalf of himself and others to recover
salary for the extra time served by them.
A demurrer was interposed by the county,
which Judge Shaw sustained, and incident
ally went into the matter in extenso,
virtually deciding the case. Three other
attempts were made to get into court
again, but in every ms ance the demurrer
was sustained and it was finally dropped.
AS there is now a decision on either side,
it is probable that the supreme court will
be asked to DaSs on the question.
