HUNGARY presents a picture of matri-
monial bliss that has not been equaled
elsewhere in modern times. Mr.. and
Mrs Johann Szalhmary, of Zsombalga,
have just celebrated the centenary Of
their marriage, and their friends were
entirely at a loss as to what presents
would be appropriate. The diamond
wedding is the seventy-tifth anniver-
sary, and there is nothing left for the
one hundredth+anniversary. The hus-
band is 1T years old, and the wife no.
And still there are people who be-
lieve that girls should not marry
at the age of IL, nor boys at
the age of II.

In the Pennington river valley in
New Jersey, miles from the little
town of Ringoes, lives John Stipple,
who has slept almost continuously the
last thirty years. The case is re-
markable one, and it has puzzled a
good many physicians who have visited
the little farmhouse in which Stipple
does his slambering from time to time
for the purpose Of making study of
his case. The man is now about 80

the same appearance that it had thirty
years ago, when John was hearty

Of nearly SIC, 1000, 900, makes the ex-
cess of expenditures over receipts since
June 80, 1898, about $ll3,25O,OOO. The
total receipts of the government this
fiscal year, exclusive of postal reve-
nues, amount to nearly 1913, 900, 600
and the expenditures 1856, $50, 900,
of which pensions took $l4l, 39l,-
623. Last year the aggregate re-
.ceipts, exclusive of postal revenues,
were 1927, 722,O91, and the expendi-
lures 1867, 525, 279. The receipts this
year therefore were $15, PTS, 900 greater
than last, and the expenditures about
$l1, 275, 900 less. The postal-service de-
felt is about $l1, DOC, 900, which is con-
siderably in excess of that of any re-
cent year.
The internal revenue department of
the government has contributed this
year to the receipts nearly $143, 900, 900,

to amend the majority report by

At 2:3O the secretary began calling
the roll on what was termed the vote
on Cleveland and Carlisle. The Ellis
amendment was defeated by large
majority. 1t was considered with
favor for Clay as well as victory for
Cleveland and Carlisle.
The nominating and seconding
speeches being concluded the secretary
called the roll of counties for nomi-
nation for governor. Hundreds of per-
sons in the hall jotted down
the vote as it was called out and
before the ballot was finished, such a
scene as is rarely witnessed outside OF

ensued. 1t was ascertained that Har-
din had received the 44O votes neces-

unanimous before the clerk could an

in charge the ways and means of abolish.
ing the offices of city tax collector and
city assessor, yesterday informed Her
aid reporter that the committee has not
yet gotten to work in real earnest IN the
matter and no report upon the subject
is TO be forthcoming at the regular coun =
ell meeting to be held in Monday. MIR.
Weed said later: The committee will not
only hive a report, but the necessary or
dinances upon the subject will also by
that time have been presented for pas
sage.
Assessor Hull and Tax Collector Gish
are not idle. Neither has as yet, of
course, made any formal move in the di-
rection of saving their positions. They
have not yet engaged counsel, although
a large number of lawyers have bsen in
terviewed in their interest. Both men,
while reticent, are very much worried,
while the large number of deputies of
each, is constituting himself a special
com mittee of one to make public opinion
in the interest of their separate chiefs.
OF the nine members of the council,
President iced and Councilmen Munson,
Blanchard and kingerv, are known to
favor the putting into effect the new law.
The ordinances upon the subject will re-
quire a two-thirds vote and the Demo-
cratic mem srs will hold the balance of
power when the final test OF strength in
the skirmish arrives.
The friends of George Hull are saying
that Councilman iced never had any par
ticular use for the present assessor ever
since the latter declined to concede to
the mem Der from the Fifth ward the
naming OF his chief deputy.
The tax collector and assessors com =
bined offices will. during the present
fiscal year, cost tho city about 500, 900.

Late Yesterday Afternoon Judge York
gave his decision in the case of Charles
c. Durkee against r.. W. Brotherton and
d. NJ. little. AS point of some i'm
portsnce i'll enforcing mechanics liens is
passed upon, the opinion is given, as fol-
lows:
The defendants have Joined in de
murrer to plaintiffs mplaint. The
action is for the foreclosure OF a mechan-
les lien for the payment OF u claim for
S2I2. 80, alleged to Re due plaintiff for the
making of plans and specifications, ue-
tails, sections. blue prints, traeings and
preliminary sketches to be used in the
construction OF a certain building. The
plaintiff alleges Brotherton to be the
owner of the building and land on which
it stands and D. n. little to be the con-
tractor who entered into contract with
Brotherton to erect the building. The
contract was entered into on the 25th day
of February, 1895. The plaintiff alleges
that he (plaintiff) was employed by de
fendant TITLE on the LIST dav of Novem-
Der, 1894. TO make certain plans and so
forth. The contract provided that the
building should BIS erected in accordance
with said plans, specifications ami so
forth, ana that little, the contractor,
should pay for the same. No payments
have been made thereon. TO entitle
OF the building, Brotherton, it must APP
pear that his contract with Title for
the making of said plans and speciica-
tions was in subordination to the general
contract for the construction of the build
ing. Instead, it appears that the con-
tract for the plans and specifications had
been made and completed before the con-
tract for the construction OF the building
was entered into. The plans and speciti
cations were, therefore. property OF said
little, owned by him, whether paid for
or not, prior to his entering into the con-
tract for the erection of the building. This
being true, the contract for the plans
and specifications is entirely Independent
and distinct from the contract for the
erection of the building. And the
plaintiff would clearly have no lien on
the property for the construction of the
building in the absence of any allegation
that ne contributed any work in the con-
struction of the buildings after the max
ing of the contract between the defend
ants. The defendant little, however, is
liable to Durkee, according to the allega-
tions of the complaint, for the payment
of said plans and specifications. The
defendants, the owner of the property and
the contractor. have Joined in the de-
murrer. If, therefore. a cause of action is
stated against ont of the parties, the de-
action is stated against Title. If the
tons of the grounds hereof that the court
had no jurisdiction of the action,
the ruling OF the court on the de-
murrer would be different, but. as the
demurrer now stands, it follows that t

court yesterday. counsel for the defense

and important witness had just been dis
covered; that the defense could not pro-
coed without this witness, and asking for
reasonable time in which to get the
said witness here. The witness in ques-
ton is J. o. Y. Sutcliff of Porterville.

further delay, and said that the govern
ment would at once telegraph for SUIT

morning. The defense did not take very
Kindly TO this suggestion, but as they had
made the offer. they had to give in. Mar
shal Covarrubias at once telegraphed a
subpoena to Sutcliffe, and in half an
hour received an answer saying that he
would be here on time.
Howell was indicted some six or seven
months ago for the embszzlement of 500
of the government funds in his custody
as postmaster. When the case was first
called be secured a continuance on pre-
senting an affidavit that material wit
nesses had been found, whose presence
was necessary for his defense. The same
thing was tried yesterday, but was foiled
by the prompt action of the United States
attorney. Sutcliff, it IS said, is a sa-
loon keeper, and has been in. Porterville
all the time.

HIT WITH A MONKEYWRENCH
Trouble Between Two Spaniards Over the
Water at San Gabriel

Deputy District Attorney Willis re-
turned from San Gabriel yesterday, where
he had gone to prosecute Spaniard
named D. G. De la Ossa for an assault
with deadly weapon. The man was held
to answer in the superior court in the
sum OF $500.
The individual who suffered at the
hands OF the belligerent Ossa is another
Spaniard, Nicholas Ochoa, and the fight
WAS the result over the water at that
place. Ochoa has been employed as the
zanjero by the people at San Gabriel, and
in that capacity has had charge of the
water in the bitches. Recently Ossa was
appointed in a similar capacity by the
bishop. Some days ago Oohoa turned til e
water off shortly after 5 o'clock, but be-
fore he had stepped out of the ditch who
should come up put his rival. The latter
had monkey wrench in his hand and
started to turn the water on again, but
to this Ochoa entered an objection ami
in the purest of Castillan tongues advised
Ossa not to monkey with the wrench
which he held in his hands.
Ossa thought that he knew thing or
two. so ignored the friendly advice and
started to open the water gate. Ochoa
thereupon grew very wroth and smote
the hIreline of the bishop mighty blow
on the face. The latter then drew back
with the monkey wrench and dealt Ochoa
a terrible blow on the head that curled
him on the floor of the ditch, and to
quote Bret Harte, 1.-THE subsequent pro-
ceedinss interested him no more"
For two entire days Ochoa Is said to
have remained unconscious, dead to the
world aud all mundane affairs, but when
he recovered he was redhot after the

"HIS L0RDSHIP" JUSTICE OWENS
New Title Is Conferred Upon the Able


JuriSt
Justice Owens now has a new title, and
be did not acquire is at Bosting when
he was east with the Knights Templar.
1t is Your Lordshlp," and it was only
yesterday that the term was applied to
him. He got it from the lips of Thomas
Farm err, ESQ.,, late of the domains OF her
majesty, the queen of England.
During the trial of Willie Wilson, the
small boy who is charged by Farmer with
malicious mischief at the normal school
recently, Justice Owens turned to Farm
er, who is the special officer at that insti-
tuition, and asked him if he did not de-
sire to put some questions to the boy who
was on the stand.
"Yes. your lordship. if your lordship
please, | would, " replied the late subject
of Great Britain, respectfully. For a
moment Il stiffness as of death overhung
tho court room, which was finally broken
by the Judge falling out of his chair and
gasping that this was too much and
som ething about Justice Morrison having
to hold court for the remainder of the
day.
The chickering's OF the crowd and the
bows of Farmer-and his carroty mutton
chops-fnally brought the justice to a
realization that he was not a bishop or
some other potentate, but merely the
presiding genius OF one of the bust est
departme nts of the city, so he rallied and
said that the Englishman's call had been
too much and he was compelled to pass.
The records of the court are silent as to
the nature of Farmers question to Will
son, but at all events the case was taken
under advisemenJ by Justice Owens.
This did not, however, end the matter,
for all the attorneys and other people
around the court made life burden to
the amiable justice for the rest of the
