SHE TOOK HIS MONEY
But He Saved His Clothes by Getting
Out

The unsavory case against c. Van
Deventer, who is charged with keeping
a house for immoral purposes at 3151a
South Main street, occupied most of
the time yesterday afternoon in Justice
Morrison's court. An evening session
was also held. The usual crowd COM
posed Of half-world denizens and those
who have a prediction for such trials.
was present and standing room was at
a premium. Nothing particularly new
was brought out. Kittie Turner and the
redoutable Jimmy testified to having
visited Van Deventer's place in search
of rooms. She informed the defendant
what she was and why she desired the
rooms. Van Deventer replied that 1t
would be all right. He never saw any
thing and never heard anything. A
landlord with such remarkable faculties
was Just the sort of person she sought,
SO the rooms were taken.
In further proof Of the disreputable
nature Of the house, it was shown that

THREE MISPLACED CHAIRS
Cause Difficulty Between "Klondike''
Smith and Inspector Dahl

Smith and Inspector Dahl
Assistant Chief of the Fire Depart

do not speak when they meet in the city
hall or elsewhere; in fact, there Is a
feud on between them which promises
interesting developments. That one or
the other is not wearing black eye or
nursing other injuries is not their fault.
for there was lively fight between them
in the office of the fire department Tues
day afternoon. Had there been referee
to decide the mill, the decision would
have gone to Smith, for Dahl gave away
too much weight to hope to win. 1t was
all settled in one round, and there was no
knockout. 1t was simply throw out;
that is, Dahl was thrown out of Smiths
office bodily. It all happened in this
wise.
The supply Of chairs in the city hall
has never been equal to the demand,
and, as a result, the officers have been
|sacredly guarding their property. At
the recent bond elections the election
officers appropriated for their use all
the seats they could find. The result
was that the next day there were not
|enough chairs in any of the Offices The
fire department was short three chairs,
Ia I'D on Monday afternoon what were sup
posed to be these chairs were found in
the Office Of the boiler inspector. Some
member of the fire department promptly
moved them to where they were sup
posed to belong.
When Inspector Dahl discovered that
the chairs had been moved he went into
the fire department office and accused
Assistant Chief Smith of taking them.
Smith knew nothing of the matter and
said so. He denied that he had caused
their removal to his office. In spite of
his denial, Dahl again asserted that he
had moved them. This was surprising to
the assistant chief, but instead of get
ting angry he again entered an en-
phatic denial Dahl insisted that he was
right In making the assertion, and de-
manded the chairs. There was no ques-
ton as to Dahl's right to them, and
Smith told him SO. At last, firing of
the repeated charges in the face of so
many denials. Smith pointed to the
chairs and told the boiler inspector to

LAWS OF HEREDITY
Lecture Before the Theosophical
Society by w. G. Bailey

A lecture upon "Heredity" was deliv-
cred before the Philosophical society in
Odd Fellows building last night by Will
c. Bailey of San Francisco. The action
of the recognized laws Of heredity was
acknowledged so far as the physical
plane was concerned, but they were con-
sidered rather reflection Of the laws Of
the higher planes than the actual car
rying out of these forces on the lower
plane. A child instead Of being what he
is on account of what he inherits from
his parents, is in reality the child of
those parents because Of his actions in
previous lives. This carrying over Of
characteristics from one life to another
accounts for the wonderful prodigies
which have astonished the world and
which are not accounted for in any other
manner.

take them and get out at once. Dahl
said he would send the jaritor and have
them moved, but that would not do.
Smith said that If he wanted them he
must take them at once. AS Dahl still
refused, Smith opened the door of Dahls
office and, taking the chairs, pitched
them inside. He did not stop at this, but
seized Dahl and, picking him up bodily,
set him within the confines Of his own
office. There were no blows struck, in
fact there was no chance for any.
The door between the two offices has
heretofore always remained unlocked,
but the assistant chief promptly shut
and locked it, and taking the key threw
it out of the window There will be no
communication between these two de-
partments Of the city government except
through the public entrances to the
