FRANK ?. BALDWIN IN II
The Young MiIitiaman's Pros.
pective Horrible Fate
HE MAY BE QUICKLY SHOT
Said to Be In q Moro Castle Dun.
In His Pocket . Commission IS Captain
la the Cuban Army

If the rumor which has been for sew
eral days afloat in this vicinity be cor
rect, Los Angeles has a victim among
the list of filibusters captured by the
Spaniards some two weeks ago off the
coast of Cuba and sentenced by Gen.
Weyler's courtmartial to be shot sum-
marily.
1t Is stated upon what appears to be
good authority that when Frank p.
Baldwin, young man more or less ia
vorably known in military and social
circles of this city, left Los Angeles
some five weeks ago, he was bound for
Havana by the safest and most FEAST
BILE route.
Young Baldwin was member of one
of the local militia companies, and be-
fore he left here is said to have shown
to several of his acquaintance a cap
tainS commission in the Cuban patriot
army. He is said to have been on board
the schooner Competitor captured with
all on board of her by Spanish patrol
boat off the coast of Florida some two
weeks ago. All of those on board of the
vessel We're taken to Habana and were
tried by Spanish court martial and
sentenced to be shot. The sentence was
about to be carried into execution by
Captain General Weyler when United
States Consul General Williams noti-
fed Secretary of State Olney at Wash
ington. Olney communicated direct
with the Spanish government. insisting
that those of the prisoners who are
American citizens were entitled to
civil trial. His request was, after con-
siderable correspondence, acceded to by
the Spanish government, and the pris-
oners are now in Moro castle in Habana
harbor awaiting the result of negotia-
tions between the two governments.
Frank Baldwins friends in this city
as well as his relatives here are firmly
of the opinion that the young Angeleno
adventurer is now prisoner in Cuba.
City Auditor Fred H. Teale. who was
Baldwin's financial hacker in the last
business enterprise in which the latter
was, with his brother. associated, has
heard the story of Baldwin's incarcera-
ton and believes it to be a fact. Let
tiers have already been sent to United
States Senator Stephen M. White re-
questing him to look into the matter.

ago, while Miss Yaw was still abroad,
the New York Herald, having learned OF
the prodigious nature of this new voice,
published a column article headed.
Miss Yaw's Wonderful Voice!" 1t de-
clared that voice as having the greatest
compass of any soprano recorded by
history-a range of nearly four octaves
from G below the staff to E in the al
tissimo, and expressed surprise that \
voice reaching such an altitude should
possess such breadth and beautiful
quality of tone in the lower and medium
registers. The following comparison
will be of interest: The compass Of this
wonderful voice is twenty-seven full
tones. She sings one octave and two
notes above high c, five notes higher
than Patti.
Her method has evoked as much
comment as the wonderful altitude and
lyric sweetness of her voice. 1t is
faultless. Her tones are produced
without the slightest physical effort.
Her cadenzas are astounding. The
most intent observer will not discover
the slightest breath movement, so per-
fectly does this wonderful organ pro-
duce it's fascinating strains. The audi
tor naturally wonders from whence the
silent power of propulsion comes and
how this slight and lissom girl expresses
the charms and volume of tone for
which her lower and middle registers
are fine examples of perfect voice

A TOUGH LITTLE BOY
George Houghton Held to Answer for Grand
Larceny

In Justice Morrison's court yester-
day afternoon little George Houghton,
the 9-year-old who is accused of grand
larceny for stealing SO from Edward
Huntley appeared for examination. The
chief witness for the prosecution was
h. l.. Barker, who was the man who
first noticed the boy with such a large
sum of money in his possession. He fol-
lowed him and saw the lad spend money
in various places, for a saddle horse
which he rode for several hours, a 49,
calibre revolver and box of cartridges
and other knicknacks. George also went
into a shooting gallery and practiced
with rifle for some time.
Then he started home, Barker still fol-
lowing him. He found out where the
lad lived and compelled him to give up
the money he had left, some S67 and the
gun. The next day George was arrest
ed. The Houghton lad tried to shoulder
the blame for taking the money upon a
boy of about his age named Robert II.
Preston. This boy was placed on the
stand and told what ne knew of the case
how George had showed him the money
and told him where he got it. lie de

Barker told of the vile language used
by the Houghton lad when captured
and in general he was shown as de-

THROWN FROM HIS BUGGY
An Old Gentleman Fatally Injured While
Driving Home
Strikes ChuckhoIe and Is Precipitated to the
Earth-His Jaw Smashed, Head Cut and
Bruised and Run Over

What will probably prove fatal ac-
cident occurred last evening shortly
after s o'clock near the corner of YER
mont avenue and jefferson street, when
w. N. Drennen, about 65 years of age,
was thrown from his buggy and SuS-
tanned terrible injuries to the head and
face.
Drennen is brcklayer and resides
some two miles beyond University with
his wife. He was driving homeward last
night alone and is said to have been
somewhat under the influence of liquor.
His horse was going at rapid gait
when suddenly the buggy struck a deep
chuckhole, throwing Drennen to the
street under the wheels. He lay where
he fell in an unconscious condition, was
picked up by parties who witnessed the
accident and carried to the residence of
his son-in-law, a barber named Drown,
who was formerly in business at the
corner of Spring and Second streets,
near by.
The latter felt unable to care for the
old man in his house and sent for the
patrol wagon which conveyed Drennen
to the receiving hospital. where DR..
Bryant attended him. His injuries We're
all about the head and face and are so
serious that he will probably never
recover. In the scalp is long cut lay
ing bare the bone, over one eye is ter
rible bruise and both optics are closed
completely. The lower jaw is shattered
in several places, the chin and front
teeth being smashed in. On the neck
also is a deep ridge where it is supposed
the buggy wheel ran over him.
The aged sufferer was conscious by
this time, but unable to articulate on
account of his terribly battered condi-
ton. Drown attended him to the hos
pital and when Dr. Bryant held out lit
tie hope of the old mans recovery de-
parted to bring his wife and Mrs. Dren-
men to his bedside Drennen is WELL
known in the city and has many friends
who will regret to hear of his accident
At late hour this morning he was still
alive
