formed never appears at its best in loose
fitting, coarse wooden robe, and. least OF
all, is it sex-attracting when dripping wet
or disporting in cold water. This is con-
sidered to be the common-sense view of
the matter. and this will probably be the
final outcome of the whole question.
A day each week, or possibly two of
them, will be set apart forrhe accommoda-
ton of the general public at nominal fee
for suits and towels. 1t is this latter de-
termination OF the society that has served
greatly TO popularize the baths and make
all OF Hanford interested in its discussions
and its welfare. Naturally, the entire
population cannot become members of the
society, but so long as the entire popula-
ton can have the privileges of the baths on
certain days. if not all the time, the whole
community feels sense of prideful pro-
prietorship, and it is not the slightest ex-
aggeration to say that Hanford is tremen-
dously proud of the new swimming baths.
The tank covers an area, inside measure
ment, of 50x100, and has a depth of the
very clearest and most transparent clear
water, that varies from four feet to ten
feet. Of course, there are chutes and
springboards, and all those playful and
healthful appendages. That the new baths
will increase in popularity as the weather
grows more settled goes without saying.

TRAGEDY NEAR GR|DLEY,
Miss Sarah Haugh Ends Her
Life by Swallowing Fly
Poison.
Fights Against the Attempt of 9
Physician to Give Her
Relief.

GRIDLEY, CAL, May 12.-Mlss Sarah
Haugh, aged about IS years, the eldest
daughter of John Haugh, wealthy Suffer
County farmer, took her own life by poison
to-day under sad and mysterious circum-
stances. No reason for the act is known
and the community is mystiied.
The Haugh farm is situated four miles
from Gridley. All noon to-day the family
OF i've were at home. A cup of liquid
cobalt had been prepared for poisoning
flies. Without giving warning of her in
tention Miss Haugh took the cup, walked
few feet from the porch, where her
brother was seated, and deliberately drank
the liquid. Then turning the cup toward
her brother, who thought she had taken
drink of water, she said:
"See, Matt, / have taken poison"
A physician was at once summoned from
Gridley and arrived an hour later. He
asked why she had taken the poison and
she replied that she did not know. Even
in her agony Miss Haugh fought against
attempted relief, and bit the tube of a
stomach pump in two. ALI efforts on the
part of the ply ysician was fruitless and the
unfortunate woman died at o'clock.

STILL At SANTA BARBARA
The Battle-Ship Oregon's Trial
Trip Delayed by a Heavy
Swell.
To-Day the Floating Fortress Will
Race Against Time for a
Record.

SANTA BARBARA, CAL, May 12.-The
battle-ship Oregon did not go out on its
official trial trip to-day. The wind died
out and the morning was a beautiful one,
but yesterdays storm had left very heavy
swell along the coast, and after consulta-
ton it was decided to postpone the trial
until tomorrow.
Everything was in readiness this morn
ing at o'clock for the attempt. The boil
ers and furnaces had been cleaned yester-
day and during the night steam was got
up. The Unadilla was sent out to its sta
ton at the starting point and all was in
readiness. It was then that Irving M.
Scott and Captain C. Miner Goodall held
their consultation. The latter pointed out
that the heavy swell would knock at least
quarter of a Knot off the Oregon's speed
and Mr.. Scott agreed with him. Admiral
Beardslev was then consulted, and the re.
suit was that the Unadilla was recalled
and the race against time postponed.
There has hardly been 8 breath oi
wind all day, and should a gale not
spring up during the night the battle-ship
will go at A. N. tomorrow.
During the afternoon Admiral Boards.

regrets, was read.
Suspension of the regular order of busi-
| ness was ordered, and the matter of the

MAOERA'S BOY BANDITS,
Two Youths Steal Horses and
Start Out to Become
Road Agents.
Ride Up to a Church Door and At
tempt to Shoot One of the
Worshipers.

MADEIRA, CAL, May 12.-Albert Soaper
and Will Hamilton, boys aged respectively
15 and Is years, are striving to emulate
the example of Laverone and Roberts,
and are meeting with marked degree of
success. Each of them in his fathers ab-
sence from home on Sunday procured the
best saddle horse and outfit their respec-
tive parents possessed and went down 70
the church at Webster. While the pastor
was conducting the services one of the
boys rode up and called to young man
named Pitman, asking him to come out
side. He started to come out, but before
he reached the door he saw one of the boys
waiting, revolver in hand. to shoe. him
and discreetly remained inside.
When the intention of the boys was
learned there was confusion and tumult
inside the church. The boys then rode
away and have not been home since. They
both have pistols and are well mounted.
Constable Glass started after the boys
yesterday. He traced them up the San
Joaquin River to Lanes Bridge, which
they crossed and came down again toward
Herndon, where they ate dinner yesterday.
The constable was unable to overtake
them. They have been breaking down
fences and riding through grain fields, but
that is the extent of the damage they have
done. They are still in the vicinity OF
Herndon.

WAS REGULARLY ADOPTED
The Republican Convention Voted
on the Credential Com.
mittee's Report.
Chairman Arthur Answers the Claim
That the Findings We're Not
Accepted.

PASADENA, CAL, May 12.-W. E.
Arthur, in an interview to-day, said:
'In regard to statement said to appear
in San Francisco paper of this date, to
the effect that the report of the committee
on credentials at the recent Republican
State Convention was never adopted, ]
have to state most positively that the re-
port of the committee was adopted by a
vote of the convention.
when the report was presented, Mr..
Taylor of Alameda moved that the items
of the report be taken up seriatim. A
vote was had upon this motion and the
chair declared it lost. Mr.. Taylor de-
manded the roll-call. The point of order
was raised that the roll-call was not de.
manded in time; but the chair ruled that
the point of order was not well taken, and
ordered the roll-call, which resulted in a
very decided defeat of the motion.
"A motion was then made that the report
of the committee be adopted and, If l am
not mistaken. it was made by Colonel
Freeman G. Teed of Los Angeles. The
motion was duly seconded, and stated to
the convention by the chair. During the
discussion which followed some delegate
moved the previous question. and sup
pose that whatever misunderstanding
there may have been about the action of
the convention arose from this. But the
motion was never seconded and was never
entertained by the chair, and vote on
the demand for the previous question was
never taken. But as the presiding officer
of the convention / did state to the con-
vention that the question was upon the
adoption OF the report, and called for the
vote, which resulted in a most decided
majority in favor of the adoption OF the
The San Francisco call., 1896-05-13
report,land declared the motion carried

report, land 1 declared the motion carried
and the report adopted.
"Afterward Mr. .Farnum of the contest
ing Alameda delegation moved that the
delegates who had been declared unseated
should be excluded from the convention,
or something to that effect, and I ruled
his motion out of order on the express
ground that, the report of the committee
on credentials having been adopted, the
delegates who were thereby declared un-
seated no longer had any rights in the
convention, and that it would be unneces-
sary to further invite them to retire. 1
think that at that time Mr.. Reuf, who had
proxy in the Alameda delegation, stated
that the report had not been adopted, but
I replied that it had been adopted. If
there had been any doubt as to the adop-
ton of the report it seems to me that was
the time to have had the question settled.
As matter of fact, the call for the pre-
vious question was never entertained by
the chair nor voted upon by the conven-
ton, and the question before the conven-
ton when the vote was taken was upon
the adoption of the report OF the commit
tee on credentials"
Other Pasadena delegates - NJ. H.
Weight, John S. Cox, G. M. Simpson and
James Clarke-reported the same remem-
brance and understanding of the matter

The Body of a Suicide Recovered or a
F1sher1ndn.
LOS ANGELES. CAL, May 12.-An old
fisherman made a CHASTITY haul with a
throwline at West Lake this afternoon.
He recovered from the water the corpse OF
Mrs. May Emerson, wife of Fred Emerson,
who short time ago conducted the Balti-
more restaurant at Seventh and Olive
streets.
The Emersons came from San Francisco.
The unfortunate woman's mother, Mrs
Mary Merriam, and sister, Mrs. Bertha
Flagg of 1910 Devisadero street, live
in that city. There is no doubt that
Mrs. Emerson committed suicide. It is
known that husband and wife had re-
Gently quarreled because of Emerson's at
tention to Maggie Love, waitress. The
wife's protests brought forth many fair
promises, which were soon violated, and
in fit of desperation she left her apart
ments last Saturday evening, going in the
direction of the lake. That was the last
seen or heard of her until her body was
recovered to-day.
The husband has been employed lately
at the Royal bakery on Spring street, but
it seems that he was apprehensive of some

WITHOUT MEANS TO MOVE ON
Their Employer Accused of Treating
Them Shabbily-He Says
All Is Well.

FRESNO, CAL, May 12.-Rose Still
mans company, which played at Barton
Opera-house every night last week, is in
trouble in this city. It is generally under
stood that the company is stranded, al
though Manager Charles Riggs says nay.
The troupe had boarded hotel bus yes
terday morning to go to a train for Mer-
ced, where they were booked to show last
night. Just as the bus was about to start
Manager Riggs came out of the hotel and
stated that they would not go to Merced
for the present. He told the actors and
actresses to meet him at the theater in a
half hour.
at the theater Riggs announced that the
Rose Stillman company was disbanded
he had failed to meet expenses in Fresno
and had come here without any money.
Riggs now says that he disbanded the
company for the purpose OF discharging
three OF the members who have been in
attentive to business. They are Messrs
Snow, Felt and Sutherland. He says that
he has reorganized the company and is
awaiting the arrival OF men from San
Francisco to fill their places.
From the members of the company it is
learneu Iudt nearly ali OF tnem are
stranded, as they have not been re.
engaged. They are without means, and
had it not been for friends here they would
have been in a serious predicament. They
say Riggs has treated them shamefully
and has not paid them anything fol
several weeks. The company was or.
ganized by Riggs in Los Angeles, and i:
not of frst-cIass character. Riggs for.
merly resided in Fresno and ran an opera
house here.
Friends have arranged to give benefit
at Barton Opera-house for the stranded
members of the company in few days.

The Taking of Testimony in Defense of

ReoinS.

WEAVERVILLE, CAL, May 14.-The
last witness for the prosecution in the
trial of Constable Van Horn and his
deputy, John Crow, went upon the stand
to-day, and the taking of testimony for the
defense began. eyes" Palmer and Gordon
Van Horn, a brother of one of the officers
accused of the lynching of Jack" Little
field in Round Valley. testified to minor
details during the morning.
The opening statement for the defen Sc
was made by Attorney Given. At its close
the first witness for the defense, H. G.
Simmons. was called. He had not con-
cluded his testimony when the court ad-
journed. His testimony is considered
very important by the defense. He de-
scribed the character of the ground at the
scene of the Littlefield lynching He had
found a 44-calIber shell at the :manzanita
bush which has become historic in this
case. AS the defendants claim to have
carried no weapons of this caliber this is
considered strong point in their behalf.
Juror James Benton died this evening.
He had been excused from duty on the 5th

FOES OF THE BAEEERINOS.
Dtrorce Proceedings after Nearly Fifty
Hears of Married L,fe.

Dtrorce Proceedings after Nearly Fiftv
Bears of Married L,fe.
LOS ANGELES, CAL, May IA novel
and pathetic spectacle was presented in
the Superior Court here this morning,
when aged Mr.. and Mrs. Ballerino en-
tered the courtroom with their string of
attorneys, witnesses and friends, in oppo-
sitlon to each other, after having been
welded nearly fifty years. The proceed
ings were behind closed doors. The wife
is plaintiff, and she charges her aged
spouse with infidelity and asks the court
for large share of his possessions.
The correspondent is known as Irma, q
woman of the tenderloin district, where
most of Ballerino's possessions are locat-
ed. The woman was Ballerino's tenant,
and Mrs. Ballerino claims that the old
mans regard for Irma became so strong
that he forgot his vows to the mother Of
his numerous children. Irna denies the
story of Ballerino's duplicity. Her story
is that the old man of wealth never col
lecied his rents personally, except during
one period of fifteen days, and at no other
time did he set foot in her abode.
When the case was called Mrs. Ballerino,
through her lawyers, announced that she
was ready. The old man also expressed his
readiness. The plaintiff called him to the
stand as her own witness, to prove the ex-
tent of their belongings. Ballerino was
made to undergo searching examination
respecting his property, which is COM
munity, and estimated TO be worth $780,
600. Ballerino was asked how much
money he had given his wife within the
last ten years. He had no idea. Sometimes
he gave her 81, 81 or $40. but he had never
kept any account of it. The next line of
inquiry was directed as to his expendi-
lures for his children, when the case went
over until tomorrow.

SHASTA,s MINING BOOM.

Large Sneiter to Be Erected In the Igo
District.
REDDING, CAL, May 12.-The mining
industry OF Shasta County received another
boom yesterday. The miners of Igo
district, one of the richest sections of min
eral country in California, met and con-
sidered proposition advanced by the
Clear Creek Mining and Development
Company to erect large smelter to work
the ores of that district. The sentiment
OF the meeting was decidedly in favor OF
the project, and as result Shasta County
will soon have another large smelling
plant in full operations. The capacity of
the new plant will be 200 tons daily. 1t is
expected that operations will be COM
menced in about ninety days. The miners
OF Western Shasta are jubilant over the
prospects for the future development of
the mineral resources OF that portion of
the county.
