w. e. Arthur, the young Pasadena
lawyer, who succeeded, through his
timely discovery by Walter F. Parker.
in being elected chairman of the late
Republican state convention, last even
ing put an end to general speculation,
and satisfied public curiosity by finally
naming the executive campaign COM
mittee whose duty it will be to place the
nine electoral votes Of California in the
Mckinley column next November. The
visit of John D. Spreckels and Samuel
M. Shortridge to this city must have had
it's effect, for the counties south of
Tehachepi, instead of capturing eleven
out of the twenty-one members of the
committee, carried off only six. OF these
Los Angeles gets three, Pasadena one,
or four in the county, San Diego one
and Riverside one. San Francisco gets
six members, San Mateo one. Butte one,
Santa Rosa one, Santa Clara one, and
Alameda one. The other counties in
the state get from Arthur that CLASSY
eye made famous two weeks ago at the
state capital. The northern end of the
committee is essentially Spreckels flaw
ored, John D. himself being favored per-
sonally, and also securing E. F. Preston.

James w. Rea of San Francisco, who
is upon the committee, was at Sacra-
mento, against Spreckels but he is now
understood to have made his peace with
the powers that be.
The Los Angeles members of the conf
mittee will not be enthused over by the
eagle bird. They are all three for Santa
Monica and each one Is in the Mckinley

are Capt. H. z. Osborne, Walter F. Par

the recent state convention wherein the
appointed delegates in Alameda were
thrown out and the appointed delega-
ton in Sacramento was seated by the

about Chairman Arthur's list of cam
paign managers Is that only in the cOun-
ties where the A. p. A. is not political
factor have there been no Republican
leaders found with executive capacity
enough to be trusted in the coming cam
paign. This Is Chairman Arthur's Off

Bartolo Ballerino will continue to

Of the family bearing his name. Judge
Shaw yesterday gave judgment in his
fayo in the suit for divorce brought by
the wife on the ground of adultery. The
decision of Judge Shaw was not unex-
pected, for while the trial was conduct
ed behind closed doors, it was the gem
eral impression of those who had fol-
lowed the case that the plaintiff had
failed to substantiate the charges.
AS a matter of fact, the real fight was
over the control of the property in

erty is worth something like $3.50, 900, and

About two weeks ago Williams began to
develop signs of insanity. At first it was
thought that he was feigning insan-

his time at Fresno. He also attempted
to commit suicide, and of late his condi-

siderable uneasiness among the Jail at

very close examination, as a result of
which the physicians were convinced
that he was mentally unsound and dan

mitted.

Theater Hat.

While people in all the larger Amer
lean cities have been complaining and
lamenting for years over what is known
as the theater hat nuisance, the legislature
has at lastset an example to the authorities
of the play-going states bypassinga law,
the purpose of which is to secure an un-
Obstructed view of the stage to every per-
who occupies seat in the theater. Gus
tom has ordained that men shall take
their hats off in public assemblies, but
that women may keep theirs on. 1t has
never been necessary to make law sup
pressing mems hats. Any man who
kept his hat on in a well-Ordered Ameri-
can theater would be held to be disOrderly
and promptly dealt with by the ushers.
Because custom was competent to regu-
late men in the management Of their
head-gear, it has been felt that it ought
to be able to regulate women alsO and
all efforts to abate the obstructive hats of
women have heretofore been directed to
arouse a strong public sentiment to
which all women would bow. These eff
forts have been to some extent successful.
Considerate women have Of late years
realized more and more that obstructive
hats were out of place in theaters, and
have worn small bOnnets or taken their
hats off. The bill makes the manager of
every theater responsible for the com
fort of his patrons.

Ex-Speaker Laylin, of Norwalk, should
have been chosen presidential electOr.
The Legislature.

One hundred and twenty thousand dol
lars has been appropriated for mansion
for the governor.
Seventeen thousand seven hundred and
fifty dollars will be paid the attorneys in
the Col. Colt case.
Senator Lanings bill to provide for a
vote on having constitutional conven-
tion has passed both houses.
A bill has passed both houses that pro-
vides tax of one cent per pound on
filled cheese and fines for manufacturing
without a license $500, selling at whole
sale without lscense $3.50 and at retail
$40 Imported filled cheese must be
stamped and marked the same as that
manufactured in this country.
The house passed the bill of Senator
Jones providing for electrOcution as a
means of inficting the death penalty in
stead of hanging and after July l there
will be no more hangings in Ohio. The
people will get an opportunity to vote on
the proposition to hold constitutional
convention after all, as the vote by which
the plan is to be voted on at the fall
election in 1897 was recOnsidered and
passed. After a long discussion the
Dodge direct inheritance bill was over
whelmingly defeated by the house. There
was feeling that the law would mean
double taxation and that it was unjust
to levy tax upon those who had in life
sustained their just share of the burden.
The house passed and made into a law
he bill changing the one mile pike as
sessment law so that it may be more
equitably levied on persons affected
by the establishment Of newpike. ThC
Smith house bill, which makes counties
liable for damages for lynching, wa
passed by the senate. Another mob bill
passed was that providing that where
member Of mob is killed the militar
officers shall be tried by military and no
civil process. Another measure passe
is that providing for the refunding Of al
taxes paid under the provisions of the di
rect inheritance tax law which was dc
elared unconstitutional.
