he went fox hunting. The dog went
UP rnvine and Worthing arranged
his lasso and awaited events. The dog
began to bark, and then, instead of
the expected fox, came two deer on
the dead run, with the dog at their
heels. Worthing promptly urged his
horse forward, twirling the lasso and
in an instant the rope encircled the
neck and horns of the big buck. The
buck tried at first to break away and
then to gore the horse, and Worthing
had lively time in trying to circum-
vent him, as he had dropped his gun
in the scrimmage. The dog also took
hand, but it was not until after half
an hours struggle that the buck sur
rendered and was dispatched. Tho
carcass weighed 200 pounds.

HONORs PAID DINGLEY.

state Funeral Accorded Beloved Repre-
sentative In the House.
A state funeral almost majestic in
its impressiyeness, was given the late
Representative Nelson Dingleyat noon
Monday in the house of representa-
tives at Washington, where he has so
long been such commanding figure.
The president, his cabinet, distin-
guished members Of the diplomatic
corps, members of the supreme court,
senate and house and distinguished
men in military and civil life were
ranged about his bier on the floor of
the hall, while the galleries, to which
admission could be obtained only by
card, were occupied by the families of
those who sat upon the floor and other
prominent personanges invited to be
present. Some of them, like dele
cation from fine New York chamber of
commerce, had come from distance
to pay their last tribute of respect to
the dead statesman.
The remains were taken from the
Hotel Hamilton to the capitol at 10
o'clock, and were borne in the hall of
representatives by squad of capitol
police under the direction of Sergeant
alarms Russell.
The casket was placed in the bier in
the area in front of the marble rostrum
of the speaker, and for an hour the
public, which would have no oppor-
tunity to witness the official cere-
monies later, was allowed to view the
remains as they lay in state. Thou
sands of people streamed through the
main door down past the casket and
gazed upon the calm, serene features
of the dead during the hour.
Mr.. Dingley was well loved by the
employees of the house and there were
tears in many eyes.
Out,in the waste of seats while the
body lay in state, a single desk was
wrapped in black and covered with
roses and lilies.
During the interval before y, al
most every member of the house who
was in the city stood for a moment by
the casket with bowed head and gazed
for the last time on the familiar feat
ures. Meantime the galleries had
filed.
At 11:45 the stream. of people who
had been fling by the bier was inter
rupted and the members of the house
began seating themselves on the left
of the main aisle in the rear of the
chairs reserved for the family. Speaker
Reed called the house to order. An
mir of deep sadness peryaded the hall
as the members rose to listen to the
brief and simple prayer of the chap
lain. The clerk read in full the reso-
lutions adopted on Saturday after the
announcement of Mr.. Dingley's death.
The clerk of the senate announced
the passage of similar resolutions by
the senate,
The official ceremonies were simple
but impressive.

1t will not be fair to assume that
the Indiana judge who adjourned
court rather than hear lawyers ar
gument in verse had no soul for
poetry. He may have been impelled
by an instructive belief that the advo-
cate had devoted himself to rhyme at
the expense of reason in the case. Or
be may have had cause, if no rhyme
were employed, to feel that the law
yer's verse was so black as to be
pointless. Yet, again the judge may
have been moved by courtiy sense
of dignity, foreseeing that the coun-
sels lines would be off in their metric
measure; mismated feet in such an
instance would almost constitute con
tempt of court. Imagine a limping
mouse before upright justice, There
is, indeed, great reason to believe this
Judge to have been both wise and dis

FREEHOLDER ELECTION
BILL REPORTED BACK

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Feb. S-Bill 559, relating to mu-
nicipal elections for freehoiders, and
votes upon existing charters, which indi-
rectly refers to the San Francisco char
ter, and about which there was consid-
erable discussion to-day upon the floor
of the Assembly, was taken up by the
Assembly Committee on Elections this
afternoon and was reported back to the
House with a favorable recommendation.
The section of the bill regarding regis
tration was the theme for discussion at
the committee meeting, as was also the
earlier in the afternoon. w. j. Biggy,
Registrar of San Francisco, who is the
prime mover in the proposition, appeared
in favor of the bill, which was found to
be defective and which he is in Sacra-
mento at present endeavoring to rect1fy.
The amendments he desired to make
were that not more than six precincts
may consolidate and vote at one polling
place. and also that registration must
thereof, which is fifteen days before cleo
ton. Both amendments were reported
favorably by the committee
Mr.. Biggy explained that he had been
grossly miSStated by ASsemblyman john
son when the matter came up in the
early part of the afternoon, and wanted
to have Johnson brought before the COM
mfttee to explain matters. Johnson, how
ever. did not attend the meeting, much to
son was seen later and wished to have it
stated that he thought the measure could
not be adopted unless an amendment such
as that OF Mr. Biggy was inserted.

RELIEF FOR OVERWORKED
SUPREME COURT JUSTICES

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Feb. S.-There is hope for the
calendar of the Supreme Court and the
litigants who are interested in it If the
bill introduced by Senator Davis in the
Senate to-day prevails. 1t is measure
for the practical reorganization of the
appellate courts of the State by providing
district courts of appeals, whose Judgment
shall be final in all cases except those in
volving questions of jurisdiction and con-
fiicts of decision, and in those cases which
are sent directly to the higher court for
consideration. As outlined in the bill, an
appellate court for each of the districts
of the State Is provided, the court to con-
sist of three Judges to be elected in the
same manner as those of the present Su-
preme Court. They will try all appeals
from the Superior courts and their deci-
sions will have all the force of those now
delivered by the present higher tribunals
The bill contains the best features of
three other bills which have been drawn
up for submission and is the result of a
conference between ex-Judge Van r. Pat
erson and Senator Davis, at which they
went over the bills already drawn up and
from them formed the bill Senator Davis
presented to the Senate to-day.

INTENDS TO KEEP BUSY
READY TO MEET ANY OF THE
COAST NoTABLES.
Offers to Take On Any Two Of the
Middleweights on the Same
Night in San Fran
cisco.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

LOS ANGELES, Feb. Skid" Nc
Coy, the pugilist, arrived this morn
ing from Denver and registered at the
Van Nuys Annex, with his wife. Nc
Coy, who outside Of the ring is known
as Norman Selby, and Mrs Selby, in
tend to stay in Southern California for
a couple of months. Mr.. and Mrs. Sell
by will visit San Diego before going
north.
In connection with his proposed San
Francisco trip, Mccoy to-day wrote to
Brady, his manager, to advise him that
he would take on any heavyweight who
would draw well, or any two middle
weights, on the same night for ten
rounds each. He thought that George
Green and Jack Bonner would make
a good pair. 1t is McCoy's intention to
fight in the heavyweight class, and he
thinks that his sojourn here will put
him into just the right condition to
train for the championship.
AS to the Sharkey fight, Mccoy says
the decision was right. He believes he
overtrained before he met the sailor.
Many of the matches for which he had
trained since last March fell through
but the hard work he had gone
through exhausted his vitality and he
was sick and in bed on the day he
signed articles for the Sharkey fight.
Nevertheless, Mccoy thinks that he
might have put out the sailor in the
third round if the gong had not sound
ed until couple of seconds later. Kid
Mccoy thinks that he can defeat Shar-
key, and will fight again in the event
that Jeffries is matched to meet Fitz-
simmons. He does not want any more
padded floors, as in his last fight, be-
cause it interferes with his footwork-
one of his strong points.
The heavyweight thinks Jeffries is in
line for the championship, but is sure
Sharkey's bad judgment will prevent
him ever becoming the champion
Mccoy looks the picture of health
and has gained twelve pounds since
the fight. While here on a pleasure
trip, primarily, he expects to do lots
of fighting on the coast, and is making
arrangements also for matches over
his return route to New York couple
of months hence
