"ALICE, WHERE ART THOU"
The Huber Couples Troubles Culminate
In Open Trouble

"A house divided against itself can
sound truth--not particularly on ac-
count of it's being Biblical, but because
the experience of the world has proven
it's truth.
And now the experience Of H. NJ. HUI
Der and his wife confirms the adage.
This couple, like very many others, mar
ried in haste, and are now having very
leisurely repentance. Some times their
marital infelicities reached such an un-
bearable point that Mrs. Alice Huber
packed her trunk, took her baby in her
arms and returned to the home of her
people on the east side of the river. Mr..
Huber since then has been rooming at
the American house on Second street,
between Los Angeles and San Pedro
streets.
The wife filed her complaint in divorce
proceedings and that did not improve
the irascible temper of the husband, but
the ill-feeling existing between the
couple eliminated, when, on Saturday.
Huber went to East Los Angeles osten-
sibly to see the baby. A scene of wordy
warfare ensued, and the husband be-
came very excited and threatened to
shoot his wife and end the matters be-
tween them, one and for all. Inasmuch
as such threatening language is against
the law in such ceases made and pro-
vided," Mrs. Alice had her husband ar
rested on the charge of using threats to
kill.
Yesterday Huber was brought into the
township court and arraigned before
Jutsice Young. He was arraigned on
$500 bonds and his examination set for
the 14th inst.

NOT QUALIFIED.
Mr.. Keller Not Eligible to Run for the
Office of Councilman.

Judge Mckinley yesterday decided
that w. H. Keller, the Democratic NOM
inee for councilman fro the Seventh
ward, was ineligible as candidate, he
not having resided in the ward two
years. as required by the city charter.
The judge held that the charter provi-
sion was not in conflict with the politi-
cal code, and therefore held good. The
matter was taken into court on a writ
of mandate to compel the city clerk to
place Mr.. keller's name on the ballot,
which he had refused to do. The clerk
entered demurrer, which was sustain
ed, the judge holding that as Keller was
ineligible he had no standing in court.
The Seventh ward Democratic dele
gates, after being notified of Judge Nc
Kinley's decision in regard to the in
eligibility of the former nominee Mr.
Keller, and pursuant to a notice of the
secretary, Mr.. ]. w. Kirby, assembled
at 1876 and 12S North Main street for the
purpose of filling the vacancy.
In the absence of VIM. II. Wheeler,
the former chairman of the convention,
o. Hinters was elected chairman and ].
w. Kirby secretary
On the roll call forty-two delegates
answered to their names, personally or
by proxy.
Nominations for councilman for the
Seventh ward being in order the follow
ing gentlemen were placed in nomina-
tion: James Ashman. w. II. Walker and
j. X. Urmston. On roll call Mr.. James
Ashman received twenty -four votes out
of total of forty-two and was declared
the nominee of said convention by ac-

LIQUOR business in Los Angeles should

full duty, uninfiuenced by anything save
his conception of right. A saloon keeper
who sells one drop of liquor today vio-
iates the law, and he cannot be too Sc.
verely punished"
A number of other dealers were seen
and they unanimously indorsed the sem
timent expressed by Mr.. Kern. They
will all keep their places closed and
comply with the law in the fullest mean
ing of the word.
This evening the returns will be dis

Last Evening

Last night rousing Bryan meeting

quent speech in the Spanish language,
and his merciless thrusts at the gold
standard men and their fallacies were
received with round after round of ap-
plause.

There was a cessation of business in
the various departments of the court
house yesterday, and most of the offic-
ials for the nonce dreamed dreams and
saw visions regarding the probabili-
ties of the election returns with all the
dogmatic certtude of the prophets of
old.
While enwrapt in the spirit of proph-
ecy, however, these same astute gentle
men kept weather eye open and did not
lose an opportunity to copper their prog
nostications, whereby their oracular ut
terances would have an element of
truth, whatever might be the result.
Meantime the legitimate business OF
the courts was in almost complete
allegiance, and that actually done was
of a comparatively insignificant char
acter.

THE ASSEMBLYMEN.
Stand by the Men Who Will Vote for a
Silver Man for Senator.

A particularly hard fight will be made
in the Seventy-fifth assembly district
to defeat S. A. Waldron, the union sill
yer nominee for the assembly. Mr.. Wal
dron is an honorable and an upright
man, and no friend of silver coinage
should be wheedled into voting against t
him. The man running against him is
John Cross, a man whom the Republic
an ring is desirous of sending to Sacra-
mento to look after its interests in the
legislature.
desperate effort is also being made
to down Frank A. Cattern in the Seventy
first assembly district. He is a strong
man and cannot be handled; therefore,
the Republicans want to down him.
In the Seventy-third assembly district
the election of William Meade is con-
ceded.
In the Seventy-second district W. r.
Steele will defeat Brewster Cox Kenyon
the party who, in defiance of the state
constitution, rides on Southern Pacific
pass, and who in the legislature was a
tool Of corporations.
In the Seventy-fourth district w. L.
Price will defeat l.. H. Valentine, who
is rank advocate of the gold standard.
Mr. Price will vote for silver United
States senator, and no friend of silver
should oppose him.
