LAFAYETTE MEMORIAL
CITY Schools Asked to Aid the Honu

CITY Superintendent Foshay Is In re-
ceipt Of a circular letter from Ferdinand
w. Peck, commissioner general from this
country of the Paris exposition. concerning
the proposed monument to Lafayette,
asking his support as superintendent Oh
schools in the movent "The especial OBJ
iect," the commissioner states, "is to
draw the attention of our children to our
early struggle for liberty. thus to broaden
and elevate their minds by the contempla-
ton of those early deeds Of patriotism and
the noble sacrifice that Lafayette, a
youth, made in the sacred cause of liberty"
1t is mentioned also, that the French
people are beginning to show opprecia-
ton of the movement in the United States
in advocating the erection of a monument
to Washington by the school children of
France.
Professor Foshay says he feels reluctant
In agitating the movement in the schools

should issue a proclamation to that eff

do before October 1. Great interest in
the enterprise is being manifested by edu-
ators In Ohio and Michigan. Governor
Bushnell of the former state will, 1t is said,
issue proclamation in a few days desig
mating October 10Th as Lafayette day, to
be appropriately celebrated in the schools.

NEW ROAD TO LONG BEACH
Supervisors Working on the Scheme.
County Farm in Good Condition

A frst-class direct road from this city to
Long Beach, a scheme the residents of tho
beach city have been working on for
months, is one Of the probabilities Of the
near future Property owners along the
proposed route are lending substantial aid
to the plan and helping IN every way to
secure the much-needed road.
Supervisors r. f. Wlrsching and A. e.
Davis went down to Long Beach yesterday
morning, and We're driven from there over
the proposed read. 1t is the intention to
follow the present road for some miles,
then branch off. passing Downey few
miles to the west and from there come IN
almost a straight line to East Seventh
street, near the river. Surveyors Will be
sent down next week. preparatory to Sc
curing deeds for a r.ght-of-way. Super
visor Wirsching said yesterday the new
road would shorten the driving distance
between this city and Long Beach about
four miles.
The supervisors stopped at the county
farm yesterday and found things In ex-
celent condition. The two new silos have
been completed and are well stored with
chopped corn II IS estimated there are
about 300 tens Of the best grade of milk
fodder in them, which will keep for six
months. There are now eighty COWS al the
farm, and it is the present intention Of the
hoard of supervisors to increase that num-
Der TO an even hundred. The present stock
supplies all the milk and butter used at
the county farm and hospital

has been reversed by the supreme court,
granting leave to both parties to amend
their pleadings as they may advise.
The plaintiffs are tenants in common
with others Of certain tracts OF land,
through which . stream known as East
Canyon creek flows
In 1882 the defendant diverted water
from the stream upon one Of the tracts
Of land owned by the plaintiffs by means
Of a fiume and used It for irrigating p,rr-
poses on lands owned by the stockholders
in the defendant corporation. The plain
tiffs afterwards diverted water from the
stream and used 1t for irrigating their own
lands.
In June, 1892, the defendants removed the
flume and laid a pipe line over plaintif's 6
land. The present action was brought by
the plaintiffs to secure a certain part of the
water flowing through the pipes on plain
tiff's lands. and also to enjoin the defend
ants from using the pipe line.
The supreme court holds that the case
before the court Is not the question Of de-
fendant's right to use the fiume. but the
right to lead water through the new pipe
line. The case has been returned to re-
hearing.

Innocent Bows Suffer

Another example of the system now In
vogue of sentencing people who are detect
ed sleeping in box cars, no matter whether
or not they may be professional hobos. was
brought to light yesterday at the county
iail. Albert Burdett and Fred Rosenberg,
two bows of this city, started for Redlands
Wednesday, for the purpose of securing
employment The mother of Burdett had
outfitted them as best she could and pro
vided them with a letter TO W. A. Colby OF
Redlands, requesting him to secure them
work in the cannery. The boys took the
electric car to Pasadena, and at night
crawled into a box car and went TO sleep.
They were discovered by an officer and tax
en- before the justice Of the peace and SEN
fenced to serve ten days In the county jail
for yaRrancy.

issued in favor Of the plaintiff In the suit
Of John Wigmore against r. T. Buell.. In
an action brought under the act concerning
trespassing of animals upon private lands,
approved March Z, 1878. has been passed
upon by the supreme court and the order
affirmed.
The plaintiff owned certain lands IN
Santa Barbara county. He alleged that
prior to November "a, 1895, number of
live stock owned by tho defendant. without
his consent entered upon his lands to the
injury in the sum Of $500; that the value of
the animals is $500. and that pursuant
to the act he took possession Of the
trespassing animals. and has kept them
since November "a. 1895. By the present
action he sought to recover damages and
the cost of keeping. For the later item
he asks for 1850 per day.
On November 26. 1895. the suit was COM
menced, and on that day writ Of attach
n,ent was served and levied on the ami
mails.
The act provides that persons entitled to
possession of the land treepessed upon, In
violation of the act, may recover from the
owner of the trespassing animals "all
damages sustained, together with cost of
suit"
Buell. contended that the act was uncon-
stitutional, as 1t was in violation with Ar
ticle l. Section IL, which declares that "all
laws of a general nature shall have a uni
form operation" The defendant states
that the act of March I, 1897, was made to
apply to certain counties. among them
Santa Barbara, and is therefore not gen.
eral act, but is special legislation, in that
1t seeks to amend the codes which do act
uniformly as to all territory and all
classes of persons.
The court holds that there is nothing
In the old constitution which forb!ds the
legislators from passing either local or
special laws except In respect of the forma-
ton of corporations other than municipal.
In passing upon it the court says: THE
act is not unconstitutional, because 1t
gives an attachment for trespass. and
without an affidavit. thus introducing a
remedy different from that pointed out In
the code of civil procedure, subJecting ami
mails also exempt by general laws from
execution, to the attachment. The power
to pass special laws must necessarily In
clude the power to make them apply to
Especial objects without their trenching
upon the operation or resulting in the re-
peal of previously existing laws"
The claim allowed by the court Is $500
damages and $153 only for expenses. The
plaintiff has possession of the animals, but
holds 1t only as keeper for the sheriff.

ple's party. Turning to the question Of
designation he sa.d the question Of titles
might lead to complications. for every
party having its title opposite the name
of the candidate such parties might multi
ply and In the end claim power to hold con-
ventions and to certify the nominations.
He said the law provided that the candt-
dates name should be followed by that of
his party, and contended that Mcguire
should be designated "fusionist." He
closed with an appeal to the court to pro-
tect the dle-of-the-roadsters.
Judge Bridgeford then took up the argu-
ment and claimed that the boilers had no
right to declare the convention irregular,
since they took part In ITS actions up to the
time the fusion agreement was brought in.
He argued that Mcguire need not be a
Populist to accept the nomination of chat
party. During his talk there arose col
loouy between the bench and counsel.
which drew out the fact that Mcguire was
excepted from the resignation clause.
Bridgeford then turned to Cator and said
he believed once on a trip to St Louis he
had changed his mind on the subject of
fusion, and had gone outside eis party
and nominated Bryan and worked for his
election.
Senator White said he assumed that the
supreme court would not presume TO pre-
scribe morals or rules for the Popul.st
party The convention al Sacramento, he
said. was the true convention of the Popu-
list party. He said the difficulty was tnat
Gator and his friends went into the con-
vention to secure the place and were
beaten. Senator White said that 1t might
not have been q sanctified arena, but II
was good enough for Gator and his friends
until the nomination of Mcguire was
made. for they di not get out. He referred
! to their voting again for candidate
| for governor, and then said that there was
penal provision in the criminal code and
it was a question whether the Populis'
| party should be in court or elsewhere The
question was, he said whether the fifty.
three political exies could set up the only
simon-pure Populist ticket. White said
| that the conventions adopted similar plat
forms. Gator interrupted to say that there
was no difference on that score, and White
retorted that 1t was only on the score OF
the spoils, as he had always commended
| that they fell out. He argued that party
usage must control In the decision. The
court took the case on submission.

A MUTILATED DEED
CWu CAUSES OF ACTION IN THE
EMERY CASE DISMISSED
OWNER OF OSBORNE RANCH
Sad Story of Guileless San Diegan
and How He Parted From His
Wealth-Court News

The suit of Frank Emery, Arlene Cox and
Eyeline Weller against Mrs. Sarah b.
Emery, which has been on trial before
Judge York for the past few days, took a
new turn yesterday, when the defendants
attorneys moved for a new trial in the three
causes of action, on the ground that the
plaintiffs had failed to make case. In the
suit the plaintiffs, who are children of
Frederick Il. Emery. deceased, attempted
to secure a half-interest in the Osborne
ranch, which is part of the Rancho Los
Cerritos, and in the second and third causes
of action asked for decree giving them
their share, as heirs of their fathers es-
tate, in eight lots at Long Beach and $500,
claimed by Mrs. Emery, widow of the de-
ceased and stepmother of plaintiffs. as her
personal property. In the second and third
causes of action Judge York granted the
non-suir, but refused a similar order in the
first.
The question of ownership of the twenty
acres of land is based directly on deed
which is in the hands of the defendant.
The deed was recorded first on January 4.
1889. and by its terms conveyed the prop
erty from George Osborne to S. r. Emery.
The defendant claims that it was a gift

denied by the plaintiffs who allege that
the deed was first recorded in S. B. Emery $
favor, but that it was a mistake and was
not intended to be so recorded. whether
or not this is true, it is a matter of record
that the deed was sent to the county record
er's office on June T. 1889, with request to
change the initial from IS" to IF
In the arguments yesterday several

brought out that give the case decidedly

recording of the deed. when the initial 5.
was scratched and the letter "F." substi-

the deed, and 1t now reads that George
Osborne deeds to S. b. Emery and MS

DARST WAS ROBBED
Albert A. Dow on Trial Charged With
the Crime

The trial Of Albert A. Dow on charge
of grand larceny was commenced before
Judge Smith yesterday. The defendant is
accused of having on the night of June
18th last relieved Rollin S. Darst. a resi-
dent of San Diego, Of 1855 In hard cash.
All of the morning session was taken UP
with the reading of the compla ming wit
ness deposition in the case. all Of which
was admitted IN evidence, as Darst is un-
avoidably absent. 1t was stated by the
prosecuting attorney that the complainant
s taking the Kelley cure N an institute
somewhere in Illinois, and that his
chances for reform would be materially
retarded should he be called upon to sus-
pend, even fer a br.ef space, the gliding
process.
Darst, it appears, arrived In the city from
San Diego about o'clock in the evening
on June 18th, en- route to Chicago. Before
going to a hotel he got drink. After reg
istering he got another drink, and then
went to the theater. According to his own
statements. he divided his time during the
entertainment between the nearest sa-
loon and the opera house. AT about IL he
left the show and proceeded up Spring
street He was then IN a very sociable
frame of mind, and had no trouble in
picking up an acquaintance. who cheer
fully responded to the Invitation to show
him the town, after being informed that
he (Darst) had plenty of cash. Darst say S
the alleged friend was Dow, but this the
latter denies.
In Their Journey they picked up another
boon companion named Spanish Frank. y
After visiting several places Of amuse-
ment. including the United Republican club
at Isl North Los Angeles street, in which
each and everyone Of the party INDUCED
at the expense of the cheerful San Diegan,
the party wound up about o'clock the next
morning OF Second street between Main
and Los Angeles streets. AT this point
Darst became unconscious The last thing
he remembered was the sensation of feel
ing some one draw his purse from his
pocket.
At this stage of the game fourth party
IN the person Of A. c. Haskell, better
known as the Goat" appeared on the
scene. After securing the pocketbook the
three proceeded. 50 Haskell testified yes
terday, to Dow's room on East Fifth street,
where they divided the money between
them.
The next day Dow was arrested and was
held last August to answer to the charge.
Spanish Frank left for Omaha shortly
after, ard II was stated yesterday Haskell
Intended to shake the dust Of the city as
soon as he can get away. The case will be
continued today.
