SOME EDITORIAL COMMENTS.

Louisville Courier-Journal: 1T is very
difncult, says Mr.. Cleveland, for me to
understand Senator Morgan's evidently
wrong impressions in regard TO my posi-
ton Mr.. Cleveland is not alone. Indeed,
the old gentleman does not understand
himself. lie simply knows he knows
every thing, but how he knows it, he does
not understand. He just understands that
Senator Morgan Is a wonder and what he
knows IS true, whether it is or not.
indianapolis Sentinel: General Buckner

trend OF political sentiment in mis- state
ment to the Sentinel that the gold bug
boilers organization will find itself this

there IS chance to make good terms
with it.
Denver News: Please don't mention bar
becue Denver doesn't often fail to carry
out any undertaking successfully, no mat
ter how large it may be, but just this once

Memphis Commercial Appeal: In order
to protect the north against the south the
ingenious DingIey suggests an amendment
to the constitution of the United States
making the hours of labor uniform
throughout the United States. Nelson
Dingley, chairman of the committee on
ways and means, actually wants to raise
the wages of the southern operatives by
a constitutional amendment so high that
the northern mills may regain their as
tendency and the southern mills may be
forced to shut down.

and MckiIley's pers. silence in ignoring the

at his post? If so the ante-rOom of the

GALE DOES DAMAGE IN
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
Thirty Sevens Derricks Blown Down
in the Los Angeles Oil
District

LOS ANGELES, Nov. pa terrific
windstorm, which began last night, did
considerable damage in the oil-we1 dis
trict in this city, where derricks were
blown down and oil tanks upset. AT Pasa-
dena the wind threw down awnings and
signs and demolished some window glass,
besides destroying trees and hedges. The
storm ceased at sunrise.
The extent of the damage in the oil dis
trict is just beginning to be learned.
Thirty-seven derricks are down and many
overhead pulley wires and smokestacks.
Two oil tanks holding a thousand gallons
of oil were punctured by falling derricks
and the oil is running through the streets.
Several houses and barns were crushed
under the falling derricks. The cottage Of
Mrs. Romero was struck by a heavy tim
Der which went through the roof and fell
across the bed where her two children
were asleep. Curiously enough, neither one
was injured. One horse was killed. Two

Pasadena reported orange trees blown
nearly clean in some of the orchards in
the San Gabriel Valley, while the mes
sages from Riverside, Redlands and the
territory contiguous say that the damage
as yet could not be estimated. Cotton re-
ported little or no damage, while from
Tropico comes word that the orchards had
suffered, as had also several outbuildings

viii Result

daughter, Pearl Voss. Mrs. Lauterbeck
claims to be the child of a former mar
rage of Mr. Voss, and ayers that her
name was omitted from the will by ar
oversight.
The pre- sent Mrs. Voss, in answer to
the suit, makes the counter claim that
The plaintiffs allegations are untrue:
that she is not the daughter Of Eoss,
and that her true name is Shoeman.
Mrs. Lauterbeck alleges that Mrs.
Voss made a false inventory. emitting
from the list of property of deceased
property valued at $4,000. Mrs. VCss
claims this as her separate property,
which she acquired with MONEY earned
while working as a servant-g girl.
The plaintiff has romantic story.
While a very young girl she had a
sutton named Clancy. Mr.. Voss OPP
posed Clancy's suit, principally on &C
count of his mother, who, he believed,
property that would revert to Lizzie as
the only child. Clancy and Lizzie ran
away, and under an assumed name
they were married. From Clancy the
girl was soon divorced, and she has
since married twice
: Mrs. Weiss, who has known the Voss
family since childhood, was on the
witness-stand to-day on behalf of the
plaintiff. She said that the first time
she ever saw the plaintiff the then Mrs.
VOss introduced the girl as My
daughter Lizzie" She was certain that
Lizzie was her natural daughter, for
she had often heard the first Mrs. Voss
tell of her birth. The fact that Lizzie
was the legitimate child of VosS was
apparently clearly established by this
witness.
About $4,000 worth of property is
involved in the suit, which is being
tried in the Superior Court
