The opponents of Governor Ellerbe do
not seem to be making much headway.
The only thing which could defeat him has
been Colonel Watson's bugaboo Of corrup-
ton, ETC., slung about in South Carolina
politics so often recently. Colonel Watson
has not met the demands of an inqulring
public by making good his charges and un-
less be does so very soon, must of necessity
suffer from the recoil OF badly loaded gun.
We have great respect for the colonel and
are willing to believe that he was honest in
his charges, but at the same time we think
he ". mistaken, and we yet believe that If
he cam substantiate his reflections on
the Cove me. in due time he will admit his
error.

SOLD HIS CATTLE
Buyer May Have to Pay for Them the
Second Time

Allen Mcintyre will try to force julius
the second time. The facts alleged will be
some what difficult to prove, but as there is
over So, 900 at stake It Is well worth the trial.
Mcintyre alleges that in October of 1886
re got a judgment against James and Jo-
seph Brown, San Bernardino county ranch
recorded in the defendants home county,
and the plaintiff apparently kept a careful
watch over a large bunch of cattle belong
ing to them, in the hope of getting his mon

ket. According 10 the complaint, however
June, 1897. the plaintiff alleges that the
Browns sold their cattle in two punches 10
Julius Hauser, of Los Angeles, the sale
price aggregating $3,9Oi99. Mcintyre dis
covered this fact, and on July 90 had Sher-
III Burr issue an execution against the pro-
ceeds of the sale, which the plaintiff alleges
were at that time still in the hands of Hau-
ser 1t now transpires that Hauser has
paid the money over to the Browns. and
Mclntyre's case in this suit depends upon
the date of such payment If Hauser set
tied before the issuance and service of the
execution the plaintiff will still have "a
look to the Browns for the satisfaction of
the Judgment. On the other hand. If Han
ser dlsregarded the execution in makinr
such payment, the courts will want to know
why.

Henry r. Gage would be present. but he
was compelled to leave the city yesterday
afternoon, and could not, therefore, favor
the assemblage with his presence. As il

joyed the national airs as rendered by a
good orchestra and finally adjourned to the
assembly room. where impromptu speeches
were made by a number of the Republican
leaders.
Henry T. Gage has now jumped into the
gubernatorial nomination race with both
feet. He opened up headquarters at the
Hollenbeck Hotel yesterday, and spent the
entire morning receiving political callers.
AS r. J. Waters, the congressional aspi

Germany VS.. France

Alphonso Eyraud was before Justice
Owens yesterday on a charge of having
disturbed the peace of Mrs. Mueller a
neighbor and a German. The parties to the
dispute reside on Center street, a picket
fence separating the two lots. 1t was
claimed by Mrs. Mueller and her witnesses
that last Sunday Eyraud hitched his horse
to the fence. To this she entered an OBJ
lection, and ordered Eyraud to take away
the horse and not make hitching post Of
her fence. Eyraud. who is a son of France
and naturally is possessed of that nation 5
antipathy to anything German, replied, so
Mrs. Mueller claimed. in language any
thing but choice and sweet. In fact, he
swore mighty oaths and backed up his
profanity by taking an axe and knocking
off some pickets from the fence. All of
these allegations were denied by the de-
fendant, who had witnesses to prove his
denials to be the truth. The case was
taken under adVisement.

Court News

Ada Vosburg, who charged Ernest Beard
with her seduction, has scored point in
her scheme to provide for her future main
tenance and support. By method known
only TO herself she induced the boy 10 give
in, and very quietly became Mrs. Beard on
Friday evening. The ceremony took place
In the inne rmost recesses of the girls apart
ments in lodging house on the southwest
corner of Main and Third streets, and is
said to have been performed by the pastor
of the NJ. E. Church South, located near the
corner of Grand avenue and Ninth street.
AT family conference Friday the Boards
decided that it would be best for the boy TO
marry the girl. and after the noon meal he
started out to find her for the purpose Of
talking the matter over. He found her a
her lodging house above mentioned, and
not being able to resist an argument pre-
sented by fearful maiden in the privacy
of her boudoir. the boy gave in and prep
arations for the tying of the knot began i'm
mediately.
Meanwhile, the mother of the prospective
groom had read the morning papers, and,
learning of the story told by Mr.. Wicks re-
garding the character Of the girl, she has
tened to find her son with the intention of
ueCldTlHS the matrimonial negotiations OIL.
but was informed he was not there; she
sent a friend, with the, same result, and
finally the services of a policeman We're
called into use with no better success. The
marriage went merrily on, and when the
mother again saw her son he was man
of family. Yesterday morning the Boards
consulted a lawyer, and will Immediately
bring action for the annulment of the cere-
mony.
Various tales in connection with the af-
fair were afoat yesterday, and for the frs:
time stories were told in defense of the
girl 1t is maintained that she is not and
never has been of bad character, and the
girl herself is said to contend that her
downfall is due entirely to Beard. She
makes a complete denial of the stories told
by Wcks and attributes his interest in her
misfortune to the fact that she once dis
pleased him.
The truth will probably come to light in
the suit which Beard now states he will
bring. He will allege that coercion was
used as a means of gaining his consent to
the ceremony.

Mrs John King of 25O6 West Seventh
street. wife of a restaurant proprie tor,
caught w. b. Wise, painter, while he
was in her house, removing a demijohn of
whisky yesterday, and at the point of
a pistol compelled him to surrender. The
wife of Wise went to Mr.. King some days
ago and requested that her husband be
given employment. King engaged him to
paint the outside of his cottage, furnishing
the necessary materials. Yesterday was
the third day Wise had been at work.
King had missed a jar of jam from his
pantry, and had reason to believe that
Wise had entered the house and removed
the sweet stuff. He told his wife of the
occurrence and a scheme was laid to catch
Wise.
Yesterday Mrs. King left the house
shortly before noon, as If to Cd to her hus-
bands restaurant. She did not proceed
there, however, but returned to the house
and waited in a room for the expected
painter. Wise. no doubt thinking her abb
sent, raised the window of the kitchen
and climbed inside. He made his way to
the dining room. and there took possession
of the demijohn. Mrs. King halted him
when he returned to the kitchen, and when
Wise looked down the muzze of a revolver
in her hands he halted very promptly He
claimed he had been after the whisky,
which was apparent. Mrs. King COM
PEELED him to wait until she had telephoned
to her husband. King then notified the
police, and Officer Richardson and the pa
troll wagon were sent hurriedly to the resi-
dence of King. Wise was taken to the
police station and a charge of gurglary
entered against him.
