The halcyon days that are to witness
church union, Or the coming together
of religious denominations upon a COM
mon platform of faith, are evidently a
long way 10 advance. yet, to say nothing
of the approach of the millennium. This
is frequently evidenced by the jealousy
with which the religious denominations
regard the work of each other, especially
il their efforts are likely to in any way
enoroach upon the rights of another as
to creed our possible members. A point
in evidence recently was a law passed by
the New York Legislature in reference to
the care Of homeless children, in which
special stipulation is made that they are
to be trained in the faith of their p aIents
and that they are only to be taken from
the various state institutions for the
care of such children, and placed in
families, under specified rules and regu-
lations of the State Board of Charities.
4 contest was made before the
Governor bafore signing the bill as to
the religious clause. This is all right in
the main, but it is possible to lose to the
homeless children the greater good of a
christian home while the particular creed
the child is to be taught is the paramount

extension could be built to connect with

SH0PLIFTERS IN COURT
ATTORNEYS FILE DEMURRERs
TO THE COMPLAINTS
In Which the Jurisdiction Of the
Court II Attacked-A Curious
Throng Assemblies in Court

Justice Owens court room was crowd
ed yesterday afternoon when Mrs.
Massey and Mrs. Bebiesheimer, the two
women charged with shoplifting, were
arraigned. Attorneys Henry T. Gage
and Jud Rush, representing the defend
murrers to each case and all the COM
plants in which the jurisdiction Of the
court is attacked. Time for argument
on the demurrers was set for November
22nd at O'Clock p. m.
Several more complaints were filed
against the shoplifters. There are now
five complaints against Mrs. Massey
and four against Mrs. Bebiesheimer and
five more against the women jointly.
Bail in the amount of $500 was required
for each additional complaint. The
women were able to furnish this. 1t is
stated that the husbands Of both are
men who have almost unlimited credit.
The curious crowd which had as
sembled was somewhat disappointed in
not being able to get very good look
lat the women, who, desiring to avoid
the stare of the throng, took seats far
back In the dock, where they were pretty
well shielded from view. They were
stylishly dressed and seemed to have
recovered from the distressed state into
which they were cast at the time of their
arrest.
Thus far s240 worth of goods has been
identified, belonging to the Peoples
store alone. Other stores have identified
property valued at all the way from so
to $50. Something like $3.50 worth Of the
stolen goods has not yet been claimed.

then resume its action. Sometimes such

scarcely day passed that they did not occur.

down to sleep or rest, my hands would become
perfectly numb and helpless. Icould feel the

Why Rates Are Higher

The report published in a contempo-
rary that the merchants of this city
contemplate boycott on the Southern
Pacific Railway company because the
latter's freight rates to points in the
San Joaquin valley are not made the
same as from San Francisco to the
same points. has brought forth an ex-
PLANTATION from Assistant General Pas
senger and Freight Agent Shepard, in
which he says: Goshen is midway be-
tween Los Angeles and San Francisco,
q distance Of 241 miles, yet owing to the
geographical location of Los Angeles,
the equated distance, that is the dis
tance in level, straight track, that the
same amount of power would carry an
equal amount of freight from this city
to Goshen would be 525 miles, as against
from San Francisco of 295 miles"
Mr. Shepard further says he has Of
fered the same rates from Los Angeles
to Delano, the present terminus of the
Valley road, as is given from San Fran
cisco, which gives Bakersfield and ad-
5acent territory to this city as much
concession as it gives them to San Fran
cisco. since the rates are practically the
same.
