BRETHREN OF THE CLOTH
They Will Hold Another Meeting in the
Y. M. C. A. Auditorium

The ministerial union will again meet
this day at pm. at the Y. NJ C. A. audi .
torium.
The committee appointed to investi-
gate the chief of police will have to re.
port progress and ask leave to sit again.
The refusal of Chief Glass to have any
thing to do with the Rev. ]. A. B. Wilson
and the Rev. Will A. Knighten is sad
indeed, but it has, in addition to the sor-
rowful features of this estrangement, to
great extent blocked the work of the
committee in looking up the said chief.
The committee may be able to make q
report on the chief without his Coop
Grafton, aid, advice or counsel But If
this is not done a new committee will
probably be appointed that Is not per-
soma non grata to the chief. Then the
new committee could go to work ant!
have the assistance of the chief in inves-
/ tiagting himself. He would then be en-
abled to throw light on himself and would
side facts as to what he has done and
what he has not done.
When julius H. Martin has finished
his conferences with his patriots at The
Palace saloon he can probably find time
to drop in on the ministerial union and
make few more pledges.
The session today bids fair to be a
lively one, and the outcome is awaited
with interest.
In the report of the meeting yester-
day Rev. C. c. McLean's name was men
toned in such a way that some might
think that he indulged in the personal
tiles which characterized the gathering
Such was not the case. Mr.. Mclean
did not arrive until the debate was well
under way, and then his efforts were de-
voted mainly to pouring oil on the
troubled waters"

is work to do.
The rooms of the club have been deco

some appearance. The stage has been
removed to the rear of the hall and a
large flag has been tastily hung in the

A great deal of enthusiasm was shown
last evening by all of the members

rugged outline of Mount Sinai stands out
in bold relief in the distance. At the
base of "the Mount of God" is pictured
in quiet and peaceful repose the thous
ands of Israel, with their tents. arrayed
in that perfect order which character
lied every detail of the encampment.
The model must be seen to be appre-
ciated, and once seen will never be for
gotten. 1t is a pattern of the only
heavenly structure, the details of which
the divine architect has seen fit to make

A COURTROOM INCIDENT.
Exciting Scene During the Cattle Steal
ing Examination.

Yesterday was the fourth day of the
preliminary examination of Rodriguez,
Bisamo. Lopez and Ybarra, the alleged
San Fernando valley cattle thieves ac-
cused of running off twelve head of
stock from the Joughin and Pitman
ranch in the latter part of July last. The
day was productive of sensations, and
personalities were freely indulged in
by Attorney IL. H. Appel and Officer
Talamantes. at one time a personal en-
counter being narrowly aVerted.
1t was during the morning session that
Talamantes was recalled to the wit
ness stand by Attorney Appel for cross
examination. At the session on the af-
ternoon previous Mr.. Appel had taken
occasion to cast imputations on the in
tegrity of the police officer, and more
than insinuated that the written con-
fessions and statements of the four de-
PENDANTS introduced in evidence, and
taken down and translated by Talaman-
tes had been doctored by him, also thai
he had promised at least one defendant,
Lopez. that if he would confess he
would see that he got out of the scrape
all right.
Almost the first question propounded
by the attorney after the officer had
taken the stand was the inquiry as to
whether or not Talamantes had not
some years ago been arrested in Inyo
county for horse stealing. This ELECTED
an indignant denial from the witness.
Then came the query: Nov, didn't you
have an interest in this cattle business :?
Have you not been standing in with the
butchers and getting free meat?"
mo, sir" replied the witness, "and
any one who says that have done so
Is liar" At this a rush was made for
Talamantes by the irate attorney, but he
was prevented from entering the inclos-
ure by Acting Bailiff Cottle. Matters
quieted down for moment, but warmed
up to red heat when further questions
insinuating that Talamantes had stood
in with the butchers in the stock steal
ing cases were propounded The attor-
ney grabbed an inkstand and was
about to hurl it at the witness when
the weapon was wrested from his grasp
by Officer Cottle. who told Appel that
he should place him under arrest If any
further demonstrations of violence were
made. After that affairs proceeded
smoothly and no further trouble oc-
Cured during the day
Evidence was concluded on both sidas
ana argument taken up. A motion was
made for the discharge of the defend
ants on the grounds of lack of evidence,
which was granted as far as Lopez and
Ybarra were concerned. At the hour of
adjournment of court both sides had
closed and decision was reserved by
Justice Morrison, who desired to consult
authorities on certain points of law.
This afternoon he will render his judg-
ment,. either holding Rodriguez and Bis
amo for trial or otherwise.

LEE is ARRAIGNED
The Rape Fiend Has His Examination
Set for Next Friday

Yesterday morning just at 10 o'clock
John Lee, the rape fiend arrested early
Monday morning by officer Hubbard,
was arraigned in Justice Owens de-
partment of the police court on a COM
plant sworn to by the father of the vic
tim. The prisoner was represented by
Del Vale & Munday, attorneys, and eX-
animation was set for Friday, November
Goth. at 2:30 p. m.
Lee came into the court room with a
craven look upon his ashen face and
was apparently glad when the short pro-
cess of arraignment was over and he
was led back to his cell. The examina-
tion will probably take place behind
closed doors, and the morbid curiosity
seekers will lose the opportunity of sat
isfying their depraved tastes.

THE HAIR is DRESSED HIGH.

The latest Partisan fashion of dressing
the hair shows the chignon quite high on
the head. so much so. in fact that 1t en-
tirely disappears beneath the crown of
the hat. Waving the hair is as popular
as ever and it is arranged so as to be
very loose and fluffy about the face and
