RECKLESS RIDING.
Nearly Results in Serious Injuries to
n WhCelman.

Bicycle riders will persist in rounding
the curve at Salem avenue and Dundaff
street under the Highworks at full
speed and as a result accidents continue
to occur at frequent intervals. Even
strangers seem to have mania for
shooting rapidly around that curve and
on Saturday one had a narrow escape
from serious injury.
He was from down the valley some
where and was bound for Crystal Lake,
and as he ca le around the corner ran
directly into a team of horses. The
horses SHE'D just as the rider struck
them, which accounts for the lucky
manner In which the accident ended.
The rider of the wheel was hurled to the
ground, however, with great force, but
on being picked up was found to be
unhurt except a few bad bruises and
cuts, and was soon able TO continue on
his way. His escape was pure luck.

PLOTTING AGAINST
MAJOR M'KINLEY
Eastern Opponents Accused Of an At.
tempt to Prevent His Nomination.
NO CHOICE on FIRST BALLOT
Chauncey l. Filley Expresses the
Opinion That the Favorite Sons
Will he Numerous Enough to Make
at Least Two Ballots Necessary.

St Louis, Mo-, June 1T was re-
ported that the eastern opponents to the
nomination OF Major william McKinls y
have formulated plans to place one
million dollars in St. Louis to help in
carrying the convention for an eastern
man. This money, this story goes. is
To be at the disposal of several shreWd
lobbyists of long experience, who are
said to entertain bright hopes of being
able to capture number of southern
and western delegates as well as eastern
men.
ChaunceyI. Filley, who has lately been
exercising In his mathematical gymna-
stun, declares that McKinley's nomina-
tion on the first ballot is an absolute
impossibility. Mr.. Filley says: The
roll of states for nominations will be
called, and every state that has fav-
orite son will respond. 1t will cast the
votes instructed for him and all the
powers and resources of the Mckinley
managers cannot prevent it. Enough
votes will thus be withheld from the
Ohioan to cause the taking OF at least
one more ballot before he Is the nomi-
nee. Under the suspension of the rules
to stampede the convention to Mckin-
ley on the first ballot will be tried. but
1t will fail
II am as loyal to Mckinley as any
body is and the solid vote of Missouri
will be cast for him on the first ballot.
but the time has come for somebody to
tell the plain truth, as ! have done IN
the statement that more than one ballot
will be required to make Mckinley the
Republican standard bearer"
THE ASSERTION DISPUTED.
Judge A. c. Thompson. of Ports
mouth. Ohio, a prominent McKinleyite.
is inclined to dispute Filley's assertions
and declare the latter no friend of Nc
Kinley If he authorizes such a state
ment to be issued broadcast
Judge Thompson gave to the United
Press tonight list of 5O6 delegates in
structed and pledged to Mckinley. The
statements omit 106 delegates whose
seats are contested.
Thte list of contests is being prepared
for the credential committee and there
will be more leaders to discuss them
than the committee may care to hear.
Those attracting the most attention are
in Texas, South Carolina, Georgia Mis-
issippi, New York and Delaware dele ga
tions.

Farmer in the Vicinity of MapletOn
Makes u Profitable Find.

Mapleton. Iowa, June THE latest
gold discovery in this section has just
been made on the farm of c. I. Whiting,

RIGHTS OF A WIFE.
Justice Williams Decides That Home

Is Her Sphere.
New York, June 7.-Sigmont Simon
said he was master of his house, and
he sent away the French governess.
Mrs. Simon said the governess must
come back Mr.. Simon said no. Mrs.
Simon went to live with her father,
and husband and wife sought separa-
tion in the courts. Judge Gildersleeve
found that neither OF them had made
out case. The appellate decision sus-
tains him. Justice Williams says:
"While in a legal sense the husband
is the head of the family and has the
right to rule the household and compel
his wife as well as his children to obey
him. still the practical view of the mar
ital relations is that within her peculiar
sphere, the home, the wife should have
her own way and be allowed to manage
and control the details of housekeeping
and servants

Water Rights Case.

The Supreme Courts Decision in a
Water Rights Case.
The Supreme Court has rendered a de-
cision in the case of the Peoples Ditch
Company, respondent, VS.. The 76 Land
and Water Company and the Alta Irri-
cation Company, appellants.
1t was a Tulare County case, and an
appeal from the judgment and order de-
nying a new trial in an action by the
respondent, as a prior appropriation, to
enjoin the defendants from diverting
water from Kings River so as to inter
fere with respondents appropriation,
judgment being in favor of respondent,
enjoining such diversion.
The court holds the demurrer of the
Alta Irrigation Company to being
Joined as defendant in the amended
complaint to have been rightly over
ruled, as the company had, subse-
quently to the joining of issue on the
original complaint, taken a conveyance
from The 76 Land and Water Company
of all its rights to divert the waters of
Kings River, together with its canals
and bitches, under which conveyance
the yendee claimed the right to make a
diversion of the waters. 1t was there
fore clearly necessary party to the de-
termination of the controversy and was
properly included.
The other contentious made by the ap-
pellants are not sustained and the judg-
ment and order are affirmed.

ON THE BRINY DEEP.
Absconding Secretary Mallory Has
Been Finally Located.
He is on His Way to Japan, and VIII
be Arrested There as soon
as He Lands.

There is little doubt that Frank j.
Mallory, the absconding Assistant Sec
retary of the Suffer- Club, will soon be
under arrest.
He is on the last steamer that left for
Japan, and when he sets foot in Yoko-
hama he will walk into the open arms
of a japanese policeman.
1t was learned in San Francisco yes
terday morning at the office of the Ocei-
dental and Oriental Steamship Com
pany that Mallory was on the way to
the Orient on the steamer Doric. Pas
senger Agent Avery positively identified
a photograph of Mallory as that of a
man who rushed into the office last
Thursday just before the steamer de-
parted and secured a ticket under the
name of James Anderson. 1t appears
that Mallory formerly worked many
years for a man by that name.
Captain Harry Morse, who has been
tracing Mallory, upon obtaining this in
formation, at once telegraphed the fact
&c this city, and the Grand Jury took
the matter up at once and it is believed
indicted the embezZler SO that the
proper papers for his arrest would be
obtained in time to permit one of
Morse's men to leave for Japan on the
next steamer.
Meanwhile cablegram has been sent
to Japan to have the Assistant Secre-
tary detained on his arrival there.

Frederick Warde te Address the High
school Pupils.
1t is well known that Frederick
Warde, who appears in this city on the
Goth and 21st of this month, is as en-
tertaining as a lecturer as he is as an
actor, and rare treat is therefore in
store for the pupils of the High School.
1t is stated that, in accordance with
a request made to him, he has consent
ed to address the High School pupils
on the beauties of Shakespeare as
shown forth in the plays interpreted
by him in so mastery a manner. A
talk upon Shakespearean drama is in
teresting at all times, when coming
from an intelligent, educated man, but
it will be an opportunity of a lifetime
and one never to be forgotten to hear
the subtle beauties of that master poet
interpreted and expatiated upon by
one who has made them a life study
and has investigated every shade of
their meaning.
The place and circumstances under
which the lecture will be given have
been left to the decision of the High
School faculty.

THAT DECISION.
The Reason Why w. l.. Leonard Was
Not Held for Perjury.

The Reason Why w. l.. Leonard Was
Not Held for Perjury.
The item in yesterdays issue of this
paper regarding the discharge of w. L.
Leonard on the charge of perjury did
not touch the real point of Justice Da-
Wis decision.
The point was raised by III. w. John
son, Leonard's attorney, that it was not
requisite that City Clerk Desmond
should administer an oath to Leonard
in his testimony before the Trustees,
but the court did not consider that point
in his decision. The gist of his decision
was that it had been shown that Greene
did not visit Donaca's house on the
night in question, though Leonard had
testified that he did, both before the
Trustees and the court.
1t was evident said the Justice, that
he was sincere in his testimony, but
that he had mistaken Wittenbrock for
Greene AS he had no feeling against
Greene that should induce him to swear
falsely, and it was clearly evident that
he had not intended to do so, it could
not be held to constitute perjury. The
intent to commit crime was wanting.
He therefore discharged the prisoner.
