B. B. Roberts Acted Fairly.

The statement in last Sundays Call that B. B. Roberts, agent for the Tesla Coal Company, had taken a five-dollar gold piece from two newsboys and re- fused to return 1t until arrested is now satisfactorily explained. The facts in the case are that MT. Roberts, suspecting the boys had received the coin from some one who thought it a nickel, took the money with the intention of giving it to a po- liceman. One of the officers to whom he offered the gold piece refused to take 1t, to give 1t to Captain Spilane. Subse, quently MT. Roberts saw the two boys in conversation with two policemen in a saloon. He voluntarily went up and. the money over to the officers, who ex- pressed their belief that he had done the nroner thing.

 in the RAceiYing Hospital.

A. Parker, respectfully dressed young man, walked into the Chief of Police's office yesterday afternoon and complained that he was under the hypnotic spell of a pr. Pierson of San Luis Obispo. He said he had met the doctor in Oakland and the spell had come over him again.
 Corporal Geimann, who Is specially de- tailed to look after cranks visiting police headquarters, took Parker to the Receiv- ing Hospital, where dose of I'd. t." mix tlre was administered to him.
 After a while Parker said he was a travelling salesman for the White Manu- featuring Company of Los Angeles, and he had been all through Lake County without doing much business. As it was his trial trip he worried so much. over his lack of success that his mind had become affected. He forgot all about the hypnotic story he had told in the Chief s office, and said all that he wanted now was rest for his troubled mind.

Their First City Election

Fort Gibson, 1. T., July 16.-Fort
Gibson held her first municipal cleo
ton under the Arkansas law today
and there was considerable interest
manifested. A large majority of the
full-blood Cherokees and Creeks are
republicans, while majority of the
half breeds of these two nations
espouse the democratic cause. A
majority of both the half-breeds and
the lulI bloods of the Choctaw and

day g Jction was of local nature
only. therefore, the question as to

She Broke Up the rleeting.

Topeka, July 16.-Holiness evan
gelists who are holding meetings
here encountered a surprise last
night. The minister was exhorting
some women whom he had called to
the mouFner's bench to fee from the
wrath to come.
"Give up everything to the Lord, +"
he said. "You must relinquish the
devil and all his works; reform your
ways; abandon your present methods
of living; experience a change of
heart; be born again through the
spirit" enumerated the minister.
One of the women looked up,
slightly raising her head to view the
preacher. She was for a moment
apparently wrapped in thought.
Suddenly she arose and said with
vehemence:
Before I'll do what you say I'll
do the best l can to take care of my
family and go to hell when die"
The meeting was temporarily
checked while the woman sailed
majestically out of the tent.

Captain Clark tionored.

Washington, July 16.-Capt. Chas.
E. CLARK, commanding the battle
ship Oregon, has been appointed
chief of stan for Commodore Watson
commanding the Eastern squadron,
under orders to proceed to European
waters and harass the coast of Spain
and to pursue and destroy the Span
ish feet in command of Admiral Ca
mara.
The detail gave rise to the sugges-
ton in some quarters that he was to
be succeeded in command of the
Oregon by another captain. This,
however, proved to be an error. In
designating the commander OF the
hagship to serve as the chief of stat
of the flag officer, the navy depart
ment is simply rsverting to former
custom. Captain CLARK will retaiI
command of the Oregon while serv
ing as chief OF stan.
