Modern Ananlases.

The historic example of Ananias,
who lie and del, on the same day, did
not close up the Ananias line Of bust
ness. The Almighty probably repented
of the killing part Of the job, when he
found cut that good society would be
tremendously deciminated if he kept
up the game. The result is that the
fellows in that line are still numbered
in the census, and are, still doing polit-
ical work, in order to get hesame kind
of shekels for which Ananias sold his
soul.
We have not seen a better example
Of it than is found in Senator John
Sherman, who continues to repeat the
stale lie that the demonstration of
silver was thoroughly and exhaust

mittee for almost three years before

Upon no man in the Gem of the

defatigable and tireless worker, Edgar
Wilson, who so ably represented every

His public utteranees sparkle with or

As this century draws near its close,
the term "Citizen of the Republic" is
coming to mean something new. We
believe that the people will. by their
ballots, declare that this great country
shall be governed by few money
changers and British. subjects. This
can only be accomplished by the cleo
ton Of William J. Bryan for president.
We all have our parts to take in
producing that general prosperity
which alone insures our individual
prosperity. If we fulfill our duties
wisely, we shall deserve the prosperity
which is the due of every citizen Of
such. a republic as ours. The continual
fall of prices draws the fetters of debt
more tightly around our people. If
continued it must end in the transfer
ence of all wealth and property to the
creditor classes, the up-building of a
nation of landlords and tenants, of
moneyed lords and poverty stricken
slaves.

A HOLD-UP LAST NIGHT.
Pasadena Man Compelled to Deliver at
the Pistols Point.

An elderly man who gave his name as
S. B. Thompson and address as Pasa-
dena, reported at police Headquarters
last evening that he had been held UP
and robbed by man and woman at
the corner of Omar avenue and Boyd
street, about $50.
He was walking along and met the
couple coming toward him. AS they
came abreast the man suddenly showed
a gun into Thompson's face and COM
manded hands up. Nothing remained
but compliance and the hands went up
While the man kept him covered with
the revolver the female deftly went
through his pockets and as a result of
the haul got some $50 in gold and green
backs.
After his pockets had been cleaned
out the robbers backed off a few steps,
quickly lodged behind some castor bean
bushes and were lost to sight. Thompson
went to the house of some friends, told
his story and started on still hunt for
the hold-ups but failed to find them.
After an hours search he gave it up as
a bad job and reported the matter to
the police. He was able to give but a
meager description of the robbers to the
police and when pressed closely was not
even certain that one of them was a
woman, although he thought so.
One of his assailants was tall, the
other short, the traditional sizes, and
while one talked like negro the other
had no peculiar accent. Both kept their
faces in the shadow and Mr.. Thompson
did not think he could recognize them
again if he met them face to face. The
police are looking for the guilty parties,
but with little hope of catching them.

On board a Pasadena car on Spring
street at IL o'clock last night officer
Blackburn arrested L. D. Hamm, bring
ing his prisoner to the police station on
a charge of disturbing the peace. Hamm
was on the car when a friend of his hap
pened to jump on and accosted him.
Greetings were exchanged, but the friend
found he was on the wrong car.
Hamm asked him to wait a minute
before he jumped off, as he wished to
speak to him, but by this time the con-
ductor came along and demanded a fare
of the newcomer The situation was
explained but the hard hearted official
told Hamm's friend to either put up a
nickel or get off the car.
At this Hamm interceded for his friend
and used strong language, at which the
conductor said he would put him off
too, if he did not shut up. One word
provoked another and finally the con-
ductor blew his whistle for police
man. who arriving, arrested the unfor-
tunate Hamm and led him off to Jail
Bail of $50 was demanded and secured
and the prisoner released to appear to-
day in court for arraignment.

THE OREGON'S FIRST TRIP.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 25.-The bat
tleship Oregon steamed out to sea today
for the first time since her famous trial
trip. Nothing could be learned positive
ly of her destination, but it is common
gossip that the prime object of the trip
is to test her batteries from the big guns
down to the smallest and to try her in all
the theoretical maneuvers that could be
anticipated in regular engagement. 1t
is also stated that the Oregon before re-
turning to this port will visit Astoria in
order that Oregonians may inspect her
and be given an opportunity to present
her with the silver service about which
so much has been said and written. The
departure of the big battleship did not
attract much attention, as during the
past few weeks she has steamed about
the bay many times.
