SANTA CRUZ COURTHOUSE wan.
Judge Logan viii Hold Forth in the New
Building. Even Though He Must
Resort to Force

SANTA CRUZ, CAL, April 6.-Judge
Logan of the Superior Court says he will
hold court in the new courthouse on April
II if he has to do it by force.
The recent activity of the contractor on
the new courthouse had led people to be-
lieve the work would be completed with
out further delay or disagreements, but
there occurred to-day an incident that.
while it may not delay the progress of the
work, may cause legal com plications.
Judge Logan of the Superior Court
learned that Contractor McCabe would
seek to prevent him from occupying a
room in the building for court purposes on
April II. The grounds for this he did not
learn, and McCabe is not to be found to
give his reason.
Judge Logan declares that nothing shall
prevent him, as he deems it technically
necessary to hold court before April IA, in
order to avoid any complications by the
Cooper estate, from whom the lots were
decided to the county. There was a pro-
vision in the deed that the ground should
not be unoccupied for court purposes for a
period of two years.
The old courthouse was destroyed by
fire on April Is, 1894, and the new build
ing should have been completed by the
contractor last February. 1t will not be
completed for another month, but room
may be ready to hold court in next Satur-
day, and the Judge says it shall be ready !;
II not he will use an unfinished room.

STANFQRD'S JUNIOR DAY.
Eccentric Features in Prepara-
tion for the Holiday of
the Class of 81.
Nearly a Hundred Students to Take
Part in the Coming Rendi-
tion of "Said PaSha,"

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CAL, April
6.-There IS rush of preparations of a
social nature which are taking up great
deal OF attention here just at present.
What with preparations for Junior day
and commencement week scores of COM
mitteesare worked up to high tension of
activity. Junior day has been set apart
as holiday by the faculty committee, and
the junior class has planned festivities
which viii! occupy every hour from morn
ing until night. 1t is the custom, on these
occasions, for each class to do something a
little more striking than any act by pre-
ceding class annual, not only in the way
of entertainment but in some humorous
caper that will keep up the merriment for
that day. The junior committee is main
tanning secrecy in the matter, but it is un-
derstood it has several pranks ready for
execution on the 18th of April.
1t is already arranged to have field-day
sports, which may take place in the after
noon. An original farce written by a
Der of the junior class will be pre-
sented. J. NJ. Ross, one ,of Stanford S in
tercollegiate debaters. is the author The
junior dance, called the Prom will be
held in the evening and is to be swell
affair. The tickets are to sell at $5
The opera ''Said Pasha" is to be given
here by students on Friday and Saturday
next. The sale of tickets has been i'm
mense and the performance is to be very
elaborate. The expense of scenery and
costumes alone will exceed $3.50. Nearly
100 students will be included in the cast.
All OF them have been rehearsing regularly
for three months past. The stage and
scenery are now being put up IN the
Encina gymnasium, which seats about
1000 people.
A subscription list has been started for
the benefit of the track fund and it is meet
ing with decided success. The list is be-
ing backed by the college daily paper and
the track men. The cinder path is in poor
condition and the athletes demand that
it be put into shape at once. They further
point out the need of a training-table,
coach and professional rubber. all OF which
will be supplied if the subscription list
succeeds, as it promises to do.
Since their Southern trip the glee and
mandolin clubs have been discussing the
feasibility of an Eastern tour. All the
members are enthusiastic and if $1,000 can
be guaranteed the clubs will probably leave
on June l in a special car for Eastern
cities.

AS live by the pen | must say that one
OF the most pleasant and affable gentlemen
1t has been my good fortune to meet DO
lltely gave me an interview yesterday. His
name is John Monahan and he is printer
a printer known far and wide ON the Pa
chic Coast. People had told me of Mr..
Monahan so that had come prepared to
m eet good-natured man and was not at
all EN- barrassed when he smilingly told me
what he thought of California her prod
ucts and her Sarsaparilla. Said lhe: "On
the subject of Sarsaparilla my opinion is
liked. While have no reason to know or
to say that other sarsaparillas are of no
value, have every reason to know and to
say that joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla is of
lnestlma bic value, for not only have some
OF my relatives used it, but have actually
tried the Sarsgparilla and know its true
value. 1t is delicate matter for one to
speak of the virtues of proprietary rem
edy, nevertheless, the truth stands in the
bright light OF reason and overcomes deli
cate feelings, Tor the truth is mighty, and
the mighty truth is that joys Sarsaparilla
is made of California herbs and contains
no deleterlous mineral poisons. / am per-
sonally acquainted with gentleman who
suffered from violent headaches and he
suffered continuously, and perhaps would
have been suffering now but that he used
the home remedy, joys Vegetable Sarsa-
parilla. He recommends joys Vegetable
Sarsaparilla and so do l. 1t is very
pleasing remedy for women, because it is
not nasty to the taste and its effects are
pleasant. In the Spring of the year when
nature is at work renewing herself, he who
desires to renew and make rich the blood
can do no better than use the home rem
edy, joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla''

could not help but think what an ahund-
ance of phllosophic humor he possessed.

POcATELLO TRAGEDY.
Officer Scanion Dfes From the K1ift
Wound Inflicted by a Murderous
Warrant

POCATELLO, IDAHO, April 6.--James B.
Scanlon, the policeman who was stabbed
yesterday by tramp, exp ired in awful
agony at 10:30 O'Clock this morning. No
trace of the murderer has yet been d,scov-
cred, although searching parties are yet on
the hunt. A man was caught at Bancroft
this morning who answered his descrip-
ton, and Deputy Caldwell and party left
on a special train Immediately. but he
proved to be the wrong man. Indignation
runs high. and if the vagrant is caught no
mercy will be shown. Several small re-
wards have been offered, and Sheriff Sulli-
van has requested Governor Mcconnell to
offer reward on behalf of Idaho.
Scanlon had many friends and was a
brave and efficient officer. He was to have
been married shortly. He had joined the
Woedmen of the World three weeks ago,
and will be buried on Wednesday by thai
order. He was 33 years old. A sister, Miss
Kate ScanIon of Bombay, N. Y, survives
him.

Attempts to Set Aside the St.
Johns River Association
Award.
VAST TRACTS ARE AFFECTED.
Title to Real Estate Declared to Have
Been Alienated by Arbi-
tration.

vISALIA, CAL, April 6.-Prior to 1892
there was great deal of litigation in Tu-
lare County over water rights in the
Kaweah River, and the ditch-owners and
riparian owners concluded to form an as
sociation to prevent the loss occasioned by
the numerous suits.
After much deliberation and many con-
ferences the st. Johns River Association
was formed. and the claims of nearly all
the parties taking water out of the river
were left to arbitration. Six ditch compa-
MES and two riparian owners agreed to
the award made, but it is alleged that sew
eral ditch companies and many riparian
owners did not accept the findings of the
commission appointed to settle the matter.
Among the riparian owners who did not
agree to the terms of settleme was Jasper
Harrell, the millionaire land and cattle
owner. Recently Harrell has had trouble
with the association, and his attorneys to-
day filed motion in the Superior
Court to have the award set aside,
generally on the ground that
it was not made according to law, ana
specifically because all the riparian own
ers and ditch companies using water out
OF the kaweah River were not made par
ties in the arbitration. 1t is alleged that
the award alienates the title to real estate,
and this, it is claimed, is prohibited by the
code.
Large property interests are involved
and the litigation will excite much in
terest in the irrigated portions of Tulare
and King counties.

Haytians Show Their Dislike
for General Hippolyte's
Successor.
sWooP DOWN FROM MOUNTAINS
During the Shooting That Follows
Ten Men Are Killed and Scores
Wounded.

NEW YORK, n. Y, April 6.-The
Dutch steamer Prinz Wilhelm ", which
arrived this morning from West Indian
and Haytian ports, reports that all was
quiet at the time of leaving Port-au-
Prince. While at Jacmel, on March II,
there was riot in the town. General
Manigat's friends had tried to raise dis
turbance and considerable shooting took
place. Several bullets dropped on the
deck of the Prinz Wilhelm, and Captain
Dorr for the safety of his passengers and
crew was obliged to leave port quickly.
The ships papers we're sent to him at
Port-au- Prince.
Captain Dorr says that on the death of
Hippolyte Generals Jaenis and Manigat,
who are much opposed to the Government
Of the present President, General T. Simon
Sam, because of his actions while Minister
of War and Marine, made up their minds
to make trouble at the funeral of Hippo
lyte. They swooped down out of the
mountains with numb Der of their follow
ers while preparations were making for
the funeral. They turned the whole Town
upside down. Their money was spent in
buying rum aud their time in lighting
with President Sans troops and those of
the citizens of Jacmel who objected to
their depredations.
When the Prinz Wilhelm reached Port
au-Prince, which is twenty -four mile run
from Jacmel, Captain Dorr heard that ten
men had been killed and scores of people
wounded. The captain declared that he
saw many families of Jacmel leaving that
town and going TO the hills and noun tains
and to the houses of rich men to get pro-
lection from the rioters. Just before the
vessel sailed from Port-au-Prince the au-
thorities boarded the vessel and put on
board twelve exiies. They were not al
lowed to take any money or household
effects with them.

ON AN ANCIENT FIELD,
Rally of Noted Athletes o1
Several Countries at
Athens.
Americans Among Those to Win Hon.
ors in the Presence of Many
Thousands.

ATHENS, GREECE. April 6. = To-day
began the 776th olympian, in which ath-
letes from several countries participated
The Americans who took part in the
games were the victors in several events
despite the fact that they have been here q
very short time and had not practiced
after their long voyage. The weather was
mild but cloudy. Early in the morning it
was feared the games would have to be
postponed on account of rain. but it was
decided that the grounds were in sufficient
condition to allow of the opening events
taking place.
More than 10000 persons were admitted
to the Stadion, including the King of
Greece, the Duke of Sparta. the Crown
Prince and other members of the royal
family, the members of diplomatic corps
and many other prominent persons.
These 40, 900, however, were not the only
ones who witnessed the games. The
Stadion hes no roof, and on each side of it
rise hills from which good view can be
had within the walls. These hills were
fairly black with spectators, thousands of
whom were too poor to pay admission
but who were determinen to see the re-
vival of the games.
The sight was a remarkable one, and
seldom has such interest and enthusiasm
been displayed over any recent event in
the Grecian capital.
The Americans who took part in the
days events appeared to be in excellent
form and won their victories with appar-
ent ease. For the discus throwing the
following Americans were entered: Cap.
- D.:-
lery Clark of Harvard, member of the
Boston Athletic Association. Garrett won.
Garrett's throw was considered phenon-
email by the spectators. He threw the
discus 29.15 meters, defeating the Greek
champion, Paraskevopoulos, by 10 cent?
meters.
The first half of the 100 metres race was
won by F. ". Lane of Princeton, in 1915
seconds. Szokoly, Hungarian, was Sec
ond.
The second half was won by T. P Cur
It's of Boston, whose time ives IL Is sec
onds. M. Chalkokondylis, an Athenian,
was second.
The third heat was won by T. E. Burke
of the Boston Athletic Association in liz
seconds. Hoffman, German, was second
In the hop-step-and-i jump James Con-
molly, a member of Suffolk Athletic Club,
covered 1877 metres. Tufferi, a French
man, was second.
In the first heat of the 40O-metre race H.
B. Jamison of Princeton was first and the
German, Hoffman, second.
The second heat was won by Burns, an
Englishman, with Gimoly second.
The first heat of the 800 meter race was
won by Flack, an Austria Lermesuix. A
Frenchman won the second heat.
The winners in the several events were
applauded. Everything passed off with
out hitch and the revival of the games
has been most successful. All the finals
will be run Friday.

Decision In a Case affecting TtUo Thou
sand Holders.
LOS ANGELES, CAL, April 6.-Judge
Van Dyke of the Superior Court to-day
rendered an opinion affecting adversely
nearly 1000 people in this county, who are
interested in litigation in which it is sought
to enjoin County Tax Collector A. H.
Merwin from executing deeds to the State
for property sold for delinquent taxes.
All the cases are not alike, the circum-
stances varying. In the case ruled upon
to-day points are involved which affect
about 400 owners of possessory interests
1t appears from the complaint in this
action that the possessory interest in the
land in question was assessed against him
prior to 1878, and that on March 9,
1878. his interest SO assessed was sold
to the State for delinquent taxes;
that in July. 1881, he proved up his claim
on the lands, and in February, 1882. a
patent was issued to him therefor from
the Government of the United States. It
is alleged that the sale made by the tax
State was irregular and void, and an in
junction was asked against the defendant
to prevent him from issuing deed upon
said tax sale. To this complaint de-
murrer was interposed. The court in sus-
tanning this demurrer used the following
language:
"There is no reason apparently in law or
ethics, why taxes which are admitted to
have been properly levied and assessed,
should be discharged without payment
simply because of the fact that the
party owing the taxes had subsequently,
acquired the fee simple title from the
Government OF the United States. The
only restriction is that the State, in
levying and collecting taxes, shall not
interfere with the primary disposal of
the public lands on the part of the
United States, and the complaint itself
shows that the levying of this tax and sale
in question has not in the least interfered
with the sale and disposal of the land in
question.
"The complaint, therefore, does not
show a cause of action justifying the issu-
ing of the injunction and the demurrer
will be sustained, and the order to show
cause why an injunction should not issue
be discharged" :"
The case will be appealed to the Supreme
Court.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, April 6.-Mrs.
Robert Mckee, daughter of General Har-
rison, will leave here tomorrow for the
East. and will not be present to receive
her father and his bride. She has been
making preparations for her departure
since Mr.. Harrison left for New York, and

are several pieces of bric-a-brac. part OF the
latter being vases and china painted by
her mother. The furniture consists OF
pieces that were associated with her child
hood and will be retained as heirlooms In
the family.
The fact that neither she nor Russell
Harrison attended the wedding is regarded
as conclusive evidence of their distaste for
their stepmother, and their friends no
longer make concealment of the TACT that
they are very much disappointed over the
marriage. Mrs. Mckee refused to remain
until the bride came, although she visited
the house before her father left for New
York and assisted in some arrangements.
Intimate friends say the objection OF the
children is not to Mrs. Dimmick person
ally, but to their fathers marriage to any
one, Mrs. Mckee especially not being able
to reconcile herself to it,

CARSON BRIBERY CASE.
Judge Hawiey Sustains The Demurrer to
the Indictment against Trenmor
1ofGn

CARSON, New, April 6.-Judge Hawley
to-day rendered his decision as to the de-
murrer in the indictment against Attorney
Trenmor Coffin, charged with bribing wit
nesses in the Heney case. He sustained
the demurrer on the grounds that the in
dictment did not set forth that the de-
fendant had knowledge of the fact that
Langeyin was witness. He cited several
authorities in support of his ruling, but
principally Pettitbone VS.. the United
States, quoting an opinion by Chief Justice
Fuller in which the following language was
used:
