A Frenchman Enters a Novel Plea Which
Did Not Work

Bernard Labadie an aged Frenchman,
appeared before Justice Morrison to an
swer charge of petit larceny for stealing
a box of goods from Los Angeles street
merchant.
If Your Honor please" began the de-
PENDANT when his case was called, Il had
no intention of stealing the box. The fact
is have been sick for some time, and
was ordered to take exercise by carrying
something, by my physician, and | sim
ply picked the box up and packed it a
short distance to bring on perspiration.
when l was arrested for larceny.
His attorney produced certificate from
his doctor stating that he had been sick
and that he had ordered him to take ex
ercise. Labadie's little game would not
work, however, and he was found guilty
and ordered to appear for sentence this
morning.
E. G. Ferguson, charged with larceny,
stood in the dock in the Police Court
when his case was called yesterday morn
ing, and looked at the jurors who had
been summoned in his case. They were
all intelligent looking men, and the de-
PENDANT weakened. He withdrew his
plea and plead guilty. He will appear
for sentence this afternoon.
Thomas Kaine, the drunk who got out
of Jail on Monday long enough to squan-
der $50, was fined So. Six or seven other
DRINKS were assessed the same amount.
Joe Thomas, George White, Joseph
Smith and Charles Snowten, four hobos,
had their cases continued until this
morning and were released upon their
own recognizance.

WILL TRY TO PAVE MAIN STREET
Another Attempt to Get Majority Petition
Before the Council

Another Attempt to Get Majority Petition
Before the Council
Again an attempt is being made by the
property owners to have Main street
paved Parties have been at work in a
quiet sort of way for several weeks, and in
a short time it is expected that petition
will be presented to the Council, repre-
senting majority of the frontage on the
entire length of the street from Eighth
street to Jefferson.
1t is pretty well known that the Council
will do all in its power to have the street
paved, but without the petition repre-
senting majority of the frontage cannot
act.
Several attempts have been made be-
fore to pave Main street, but every time
property owners who refused to sign. The
petitioners are now certain that the work
will be done.

every Objectionable substance. :.

movement. The position of the two
countries is such that they serve as a
natural bulwark TO each other, and
the interest oftach wuUld seem to lie
in more perfect union as to those
matters commSn to both. One thing
seems to be lacking,-a power to
legislate for both as TO their foreign
relations, and .the common defense.
Norway, the Smaller, is naturally
jealous of her rights, and fears that
being outnumhered she would suffer
were the bondsof union drawn closer.
A Scandinavia Urion to consist of
Denmark, norway and Sweden has
often been suggested 1t would be Il
natural union as the languages of the
three countries are so closely related
that the literature of each is under
stood by any Scandinavian of even
moderate education. 1t is, perhaps,
too much to expect that the great
powers of Europe would permit the
establishment of a republic in north
ern Europe which would spread the
tendencies TO uistrust and dissatis-
faction with Those who believe them
selves the Lords duly appointed to
rule and govern AS citizens of the
greatest of all republics Americans
cannot be Indifferent to the struggles
in Europe between Republicans and
Royalists, between the progressivists
and the reactioAists, between the old

lines between these conflicting
elements in goternments been more
apparent of late than in Norway.

women.


We are hearing a great deal now
about "the newt women" just as ten
years ago there Was great to do about
sthe advanced Woman" There has
been much tatk about ''woman's
sphere" both .from strong-minded
females who WOULD make man of
her, and frons fusty and musty
doctors of divinity, who would make
her a Sinking and ignorant nom
entity. At any rate, whether
woman hasa all the rights she wants or
not, she has always attracted atten-
ton, and men have made remarks
about her, from Adams the woman
thou gavest me, down to the present.
For instances: I"Woman's at best a
con tradiction."I Goods last, best
gift to man." mistress of herself
though china fall" "When the
candles are outtall women are fair"
"Whoso fndeth'a wife findeth a good
thing" ga ch,d of our grandmother
Eve" What will not gentle woman
dare?" "Variable as the shade by
the aspen mdde." "Mans best
possession is a sympathic wife. 3"
woman lost Mark Anthony the
world" Perfect woman, nobly
planned" Mature made thee to
temper man. Fantastic as a
woman's mood.N Love deceives the
best of woman-k kind" England is a
paradise for w4men." If we sub
stitute our OWN country for ENGLAND
in the last uu1tatiou, III will come
pretty near theItruth. Women ought
to be friends ito railroads for the
latter have DOM more than any other
agency TO mako this country comfort
able for them.s The beautiful and
luxurious furnishings are for the eyes
of woman. The compartment sleeper
is specially for her benefit. The
courtesy and Intention shown to
women is nowhere more marked than
on our railroads, especially 'the
Burlington" famed for its care of
women travelling alone. Remember
this, ladies, andbuy tickets to Chicago
| and st. Louis bver the Burlington.
