ANNUAL PRAISE MEETING
At the Boyle Heights Presbyterian
Church


Church
The annual praise meeting of the Boyle
Heights Presbyterian church was held yes
terday afternoon at the church and was
we'll attended. The meeting was opened
by devotional exercises by Mrs. Henderson
of Emmanuel church, which was followed
by the girls of the Spanish mission school
singing two songs, one in English and tn Q
other in their native tongue. Mrs. Newell
read paper on Mormonism and Mrs. H.
J. Crawford gave very interesting talk on
the mission work in Micronesia. The
speaker was born on the islands and her
par ents were the first missionaries who
went to that country. She gave a graphic
description of the life on the islands, but
spoke more particularly of the Christian
work that had been accomplished in the
past forty years among the natives. Forty
eight churches have been established in
that time, all of which were Congregational.
There are 5000 members and in the past
year the natives have contributed $500 to
the missionary board and their own work.
The missionaries supplies and regular
mails arrive but once year on vessel
called the Morning Star, which is sent out
via the Sandwich islands by the American
board of missions. Mrs. Crawford also
told of her work in Central and Western
Mexico.
Mrs. o. F. Wisner's remarks were con.
fined to missionary work in Canton, China,
of the women's work for women, of how
the women of China were visited in their
homes and their willingness to learn and
become Christians. Three of the most en-
ergetic and devout of the native ministers
of this section Of China were educated in
America,

dressed few remarks on the mission work

The Cowboy Preacher and Wife
Again in Court
ANXIOUS FOR THE TRIALS
The Faithful "Callie" Remains Staunch
and True
Jurles Waived In All Cases Except That OF
Rice Himseif-Funny Incidents Dar-
ing the Hearing

Rice, the long-haired "Cowboy Preach
er," with his wife and several of their de-
voted disciples were conspicuous figures in
Police Judge Ovens court yesterday after
noon. Rice, Mrs. Rice, Johnston and Nc
Cune were on hand to enter their pleas to
the charge of disturbing the peace, while
the others were on hand to give them the
benefit Of their moral support. Rice was
got up regardless of expense for the oc-
casion. His flowing name was neatly ar
ranged in Psyche knot at the back of his
classical head. For the occasion he had
discarded his working suit of buckskin,
and was gorgeously arrayed in black
velvet coat, with dark vest and trousers.
Piccadilly collar, with neat black neck
tie and nicely polished boots completed
his costume. He was freshly shaved, his
moustache curled, and altogether he pre-
sented a very clean, we'll groomed appear
ance, quite different from his everyday
SELF Mrs. Rice wore the same
costume in which she has ap-
peared at all her meetings-a plain
street dress of uncertain color, with a
flat hat trimmed with bunch
or two OF bright-colored ribbon.
She and her husband occupied seats to-
gether inside the rail. On one side sat q
Catriarchal looking old gentleman with a
flowing white beard. while several ladies
occupied seats in their immediate vicinity.
The faithful! "Callie" was lowering about

hearing was accordingly set for Tuesday

hearing was accordingly set for Tuesday
next, the 18th. at 8 m.
Mrs. Rice then said that she had re-
quest to make of the court, and that was
that he have the large number OF police,
from thirty to forty, who have been attend
ing her meetings, kept in their respective
districts, until after her case was disposed,
as she was afraid that the presence of so
many officers, in the present state Of the
public mind, might cause riot.
The court curtly replied that this was a
matter with which he had nothing to do,
and that she would have to see the chief of
police about this matter.
AS there are only about twenty-six Off
GERS all told on the night watch, and at no
time have there been more than six or
eight policemen at the meetings to keep
the sidewalks clear, Mrs. Rice's ingenious
little bid for more notoriety only caused a
broad grin, as she took her seat.
The cowboy preachers case was next
called and he entered his plea of not
guilty and also demanded an immediate
trial.
Again the court patiently went over the
same details, explaining to Rice that this
could not be given to him and that he, too,

mere agent of the plaintiff to develop
this water. The title remains vested in
plaintiff, and upon the failure of the water
company to develop water the plaintiff
would have the right to proceed with the
work itself. The clause in the deed
therefore casts no cloud on the title.
1t also appears that one of the parcels OF
land on which the deed gave the right to
develop water was described as 'sali por-
tions of the Vejar tract and Yorba tract
from which il may be practicable to take
water into the pipe lines of" the plaintiff.
This method of description left Uncertain
the exact boundaries of the land to which
the right extended. In the year 1894, by
arrangement between the two companies.
survey of these two tracts was made and
line of levels established accurately de-
fining the extreme limits of the portions of
these tracts from which it was practicable
to take water into the plaintiffs pipes. In
accordance with the agreement under
which this survey was made, resolutions of
acquiescence therein were passed by each
corporation and quit claim deeds were
executed by each to the other conveying the
respective portions beyond their respective
lines as thus delimited and established.
1t is not alleged that the line thus To-
Gated is not accurate, nor that it is unjust
or unfair in any particular. But 1t Is
averred that the deed executed by the
plaintiff, in pursuance of this survey. is a
prayer is that it be set aside and cancelled.
If any OF the wells mentioned in the COM
plant are in fact beyond the lines of this
survey, it might, by inference, be held to
be q cloud on the title to the we'll thus
situated. But there is nothing to show
that all of the wells are not situated within
the boundaries of the land described as the
land of the plaintiff. So far as the COM
plant shows, the survey is absolutely cor
rect. 1t is manifest, therefore, that the
deed thus made serves to confirm and
strengthen plaintiffs title, instead of cast
ing cloud upon it.
ltis upon these grounds that l have
come to the conclusion that the complaint
does not show any cause for relief or any
injury from the resolutions and deeds
sought to be set aside.
No reason appears why the stockholders
of either corporation should be made par
ties to the action in its present form.
For the reasons stated, the demurrer
will be overruled. If the plaintiff desires
to amend it's complaint leave will be given
to do go on application. Meanwhile the
defendant will be allowed ten days to
answer,

would have to take his regular turn in the
line OF the justice mill.
Then Rice wanted to know if his case
could not be set at the same time as his
wife's, and again the court explained that
this was out of the question. The cases
were separate and distinct and would have
to be tried separately.
Rice was rather dubious about trusting
himself to the court, and said he would
take a jury.
1t was explained that this would necessi-
tate further delay, but Rice thought he
could stand it. His trial was accordinly
set for Thursday. the 9th, at pm.
The case of Charles Johnston was next
called, and the faithful "Callie," the ''man
and made his way to the bar. Johnston
had already entered his plea of not guilty,
and he, like the others. also wanted an inn
mediate trial. "Callie" then began with a
plea for Rice and his wife. He called his
honor's attention to the fact that the Rices
that did not make some difference in their
status before the court.
''Not a particle,'' replied his honor,
shortly; 1--WE try Cinnamon every day."
This was poser, and as soon as he re-
covered Johnston proceeded on his own
case.
"Do you want to be tried by the court or
by jury?" asked his honor.
swell, don't know replied Johnston.
'Your honor looks like an honorable man,
and would as soon trust myself
"That's not the question:" sharply inter-
rupted the court, cutting off "Callie's'' flow
of eloquence in the middle. "Do you want
to be tried by the court or a jury?''
Mr.. Johnston thought he would trust to
the court and his case was set for Thurs
| day the Goth, at pm.
After impressing upon the court the ne
cessity for prompt action in his case, as he
was interested in three businesses in the
city, each of which required his immediate
supervision, Mr.. Johnston and his friends
filed out of the court room and Judge
Owens resumed his monotonous grind on
routine police business.

men, whose most distinguishing character
istic was their luxuriant wealth of whisker,
for by some strange law of nature crank
ism and excessive hirsute development
seem to go together. Far back in the rear
of the room was a strange Svengali-looking
man, who seemed to take deep interest
in the proceedings. t-l.'ss- ~. s.H
There was an unusually heavy docket
for Thursday, and as Judge Owens method
ically waded through the long list of
drunks, petty larcenists and other police
cases, the Rices and their friends occupied
their time in whispering among themselves
and commenting on the unfortunates, as
justice was meted out to them according to
their deserts.
The case of Mrs. Rice was finally
reached and the court asked what plea she
wished to enter in the two cases against
her. The woman did not apparently COM
prehend the status of the case, and stated
that she wished an immediate trial. The
court explained to her that it was under.
stood that she had an attorney, and that
the matter had been continued until this
date for her to plead and to make up her
mind whether she wanted to be tried by the
court or by jury.
Then it was explained that Gen. John.
stone Jones, who, it had been stated, was to
appear for Mrs. Rice, had withdrawn from
the case.
Mrs. Rice. with her most tragic air, and
in her deepest contralto, announced that
she wished to enter her plea of not guilty,
in both cases, and that she desired an inn
mediate hearing on the first charge.
Again the court explained that the trial
could not proceed at this time. as the case
