SAN BERNARDINO. Nov. 11.-(Reg-
ular Correspondence.) 1t has just come
to light that the bloody murrain is rag
ing among some of the herds of dairy
cows, one man having lost large num-
ber from that cause. Fortunately the
owners do not sell the milk for con-
sumption, but only for butter purposes
and in the manipulation for that it may
lose some of it's detrimental qualities.
The whole herd has been Quarantined
and a careful watch is being held over
other suspected places. This disease is
the more dangerous from the fact that
the symptoms are scarcely discernible
until the death of the animal.
The trial of Ben Pearson for the kill
ing of Louis Bellman was given to the
jury Thursday morning. The defense
put but one witness on the stand, the
prisoner, who told a straightforward
story of the killing, claiming that the
discharge of the gun was entirely acci-
dental, as it was fired while down by his
side, the butt resting on his hip as he
was talking to Bellman, who was threat
ening his life with a car coupling pin,
raised as if to strike him at any time
The shot took effect near the left shoul-
der glanced upward, then downward,
severed one of the main arteries of the
heart and crossing the body lodged near
the opposite shoulder. The prisoners

The Board of Aldermen undid yester-
day all they did last week. They practi-
cally rescinded the order for the removal
of the electric light poles on Danforth
street, and the Gaiety theatre, which was
shut down on Saturday, they re-opened
by granting q license to run the place to
John n. Long. 1t has been apparent
for several DAYS past that the board acted
somewhat hastily in the matter of the
poles, and that they would have to re-
trace their steps to some degree. Their
mistake in this case was pardonable
one, for there was a large number OF re-
spectacle petitioners in favor of the sct
ion that was taken last week, aid the
illegal and almost defiant action of the
Electric Light Company very naturally
incensed them and made them anxious
to inf1ic5 upon the company some de-
served punishment
AS regards the Gaiety, their turnabout
is much less pardona}ole. Perhaps it would
be going too fs1 to say that no show
should be run "a the Gaiety building I'M
der any circE instances, but after the ex-
posture at 5Snhe hearing Of last week it was
their tlrIty to get some sort of a guarantee
that no such show as has been run there
worild be repeated. There was abundant
reason for believing that the person in
whose name the license was asked was
not the person who was really to run the
show and be responsible for it. Nay
more there was good reason FOR suspect
ing that behind the applicant for the
license there was the same old manage
ment which had brought the theatre into
such merited disrepute. This being the
case the matter should have been re-
ferred to a committee of the board for
thorough investigation before action was
taken 1t was said to be sure that the
board could revoke the license if i'm
proper performances were given, and an
intention to do so was expressed. But
the board will want evidence Of impro-
prieties as it did before, and should the
place again become indecent, reputable
people will be put to the disagreeable
task of going there and collecting evil
dence and rehearsing is again before the
board This ought not to be. Having
once shown that the place was disrepu-
table the burden ought to have been tax
en- from item and placed upon the
management which should have been
compelled to give some sort of a guaran-
tee that in the future the place was to
be respectable While we do not think
the board would deliberately license a
show that it believed was going to be
indecent, we must say that they. have
not in this case taken the precautions to
prevent indecency which they ought to
have taken and which they could not
neglect without exposing themselves to
severe and just criticism.
