BRIGHT DAYS FAREWELL.

written for The Starr
Farewell, bright days
Now gliding by,
Old Time delays
For no ones sigh;
But haStens on
In mad career.
The day is gone
And soon the year,
For golden dawn
Heralds the day
Which setting sun
Marks for decay;
And as night falls
In gloom at last
Memory recalls
The vanished past.
CHORUS.
Bright days, farewell,
Whose suns have set,
Your witching spell
Shall llnger yet,
And memory, dear.
Your JOYS restore,
And bring them near
To us once more.
Bright days, good bye!
o hopes and fears,
Your visions sigh
And fade in years;
They vanish from
Our longing gaze
All. ne'er will come
Those dead old days!
Yet memory 'guiles
Away our tears,
And wreathes with smiles
The shadowy years;
While peace illumes
The persisted hours,
And decks their tombs
With sweetest flowers.

lading to be stamped, impose the cost of the
stamp upon the express company or upon
the shipper?
He refers to the provision of the revenue
law which reads in substance as follows
at shall be the duty of every carrier to
issue to shipper, or person from whom any
goods are accepted for transportation, bill
of lading OF receipt for each shipment re-
ceived for carriage and transportation; and
there shall be duly attached and Cancelled to
each of said bills OF lading or other memo
randum, and to each duplicate thereof, a
stamp of the value of one cent. Any fail
ure to issue such bill of lading or other
memorandum shall subject such carrier to
a penalty of fifty dollars for each offense,
and no such bill of lading or memorandum
shall be used in evidence unless it shall be
duly stamped as aforesaid"
The decision holds that the duty which
this clause imposes upon the express conf
pany is to issue bill of lading only where
goods are accepted for transportation" or
for each shipment received for carriage and
transportation"
Further, that the complaint not only fails
to allege that the company accepted for
shipment the package in question, but the
implication is to the contrary; and what
ever may be the liability of an express com
pany to shipper on account of refusal to
accept goods offered for transportation, the
refusal is not violation of the revenue law
The penalty of said law is incurred only
where a company accepts goods and refuses
to issue for them bill of lading.

ACTION BY THE BAR
Resolutions Relative to the Death of
E. st. Julien Cox

The following address was yesterday pre-
sented to the superior court of this county:
I'VE, the undersigned committee OF the
Los Angeles bar, respectively submit the fol-
lowing resolution of respect in relation to
the death of the late E. St. Julien Cox, form
erly of the bar of St. Paul and st. Peters,
Minnesota, where for many years his per-
sonality was strongly impressed upon the
legislature and judicial departments of his
! adopted state. Failing health influenced
him few years ago to settle in Los Angeles
in the hope that the salubrious climate of
this section would give rest and peace, if
not restoration to health. The hope, while
at first encouraging, did not justify the an
ticipated restoration of health. A shattered
constitution could not be restored by eli
mate, and death ensued on the Sd inst, by
which the state of Minnesota has lost dis
tingushed citizen, jurist and legislator, and
California has lost an adopted citizen who,
had he been blessed with health and
strength, would have been an honor to the
state and an instructive example to the
younger members of his profession.
Resolved, That we hereby tender to the
state of Minnesota and to the family and
friends of our deceased brother in the two
states the sympathy and coincidence of our
professional brotherhood and request that
these resolutions be spread upon the minutes
of the court and that copy thereof be for
warded to the family of our deceased
brother.
(Signed) "a. J. King, Richard Dunnigan
and J. A. Donnell, committee
In accordance with such request, Judge
Van Dyke, to whom it was presented, or
dered that the address and accompanying
resolution be spread upon the minutes of the
court in his department.

EXHIBITION DRILL
The Seventh Wants the Chamber OF
Commerce to Take Charge

At the meeting of the board of directors
of the chamber of commerce held yesterday
letter was read from George w. Swing,
representing a committee from the Seventh
regiment. asking the chamber to take
charge of the proposed exhibition drill that
the Seventh intends giving during the week
of encampment here, stating that they ex-
pected to use the proceeds of the drill for
erecting a monument in one of the city
parks in memory of the boys that have died
in the Seventh. The matter was referred
to a committee of five, consisting of Messrs.
Slauson, Newberry, Burnham, Frank and
Cass.
A communication was read from the In
ter-State Merchants association, of st.
Louis, asking that a representative OF the
chamber be named to attend banquet to
be given November 22nd, in st. Louis, by
the association. The president thereupon
appointed Richard Kerens, member of
the chamber, and resident of st. Louis. 1t
was stated that at the present time there is
no coal oil inspector in this section of the
country. The matter was discussed, and
referred to the committee on law and legis-
lation to investigate.

SHE'S NOT so BAD
The Daughter of the Spanish Beauty
Wants to Be Honest

Flora Warren, the l5-year-old daughter
of the Spanish Beauty" socalled, will be
brought before Judge Clark this morning
for examination on a charge of incorrigi
bility. 1t is said, however, that application
will be made by a gentleman and lady of
this city for permission to adopt the young
lady. By this means it is hoped to avoid
her commitment to the reform school,
Flora was informed against by her
mothers brothers, Adolf and Ray Young
but through their later efforts the adoption
proceedings were undertaken. The girl is
possessed of unusual beauty, and is not
thought to be by any means the depraved
creature that her relationship to her
mother would suggest She has lived with
her mother on Banning street, but lately
left and took up her temporary abode with
a lady living in the western part of the city.
There she had made arrangements to work
for wages for an Adams street family, and
was on her way there when placed under
arrest by the officers.
At the county Jail she has been in charge
of the matron, and last night said, with
reference to leaving her mother, that she
could ask no better friend save when her
mother was drinking. AT such times she
was a terror, but when not intoxicated she
was good woman. OF late her mother has
taken to drink, and her frequent libations
have made her dangerous. The girl ap-
peared to realize the bad influences which
had surrounded her home life, and ex-
pressed satisfaction because of the proposed
adoption of herself as affording a means of
escape from a future by no means desirable
Born in Los Angeles, intelligent and pretty,
she has attracted much attention, for she
seems to be anxious to avoid a bad life
rather than in need of correction on ac-
count of vicious habits. If cared for prop.
erly, it is expected she will not Sail into the
ways of her mother, whose devious career
has been the subject of much newspaper
celebrity.

A HAY DEAL
Difficulty Experienced in Enforcing a
Contract

S. B. McCreery sold 64,7 765 pounds of hay
to w. E. Clark last April for SIS ton. but
failed to collect and sued for S4S573, the
amount due. Clark in his answer swore that
the agreement was for the delivery of all the
hay in McCreery's barn, Clark to be enti-
tied to reject any bales lying next to the
ground which might be found to have been
injured when offered for delivery. A balance
of forty Eight tons yet in the barn, Clark
said was withheld to his injury in the
amount of $500, hay having gone up to
$3.50 a ton shortly after, and for that
amount he asked, the same being a counter
claim.
On May 10Th Judge Allen ordered judg-
ment against Clark. directing him to pay
for the hay delivered and also the costs of
the action, but Withholding his signature
of the findings and judgment till the plain
tiff had delivered the balance of the hay
and at the original price, SIS, as agreed.
Clark, when on the witness stand, expressed
a willingness to take the hay then at that
rate and 1870 pounds more were delivered,
for which he paid 1857 7.25, but supplement
tary proceedings were instituted by Nc
Creery to compel him to take balance of
$3.50 pounds still in the barn, of the value of
SAC. u, which Clark had refused to accept.
In answer to this supplemental complaint
Clark alleged that he had received the en-
tire amount.
Judge Allen Yesterday ordered judgment
for plaintiff as prayed and for his costs in
the original action.

ment of partnership accounts, and finally
had attempted to evict Brunswick alto
gether from the saloon. The petition has

sires to secure the business as an entirety.

Suit for Damages

Angeles Railway company filed yesterday
he alleges that the accident was due to the
negligence of the motorman and he asks
for $4,000 damages on account of injuries
sustained. 1t appears that his head was
cut, his face, neck and limbs bruised and a
rupture from which he had nearly recov
cred was torn and greatly aggravated The
shock to his nervous system and resulting
impairment of health are the grounds upon
which damages are asked.
