A SENSATION
IN BAKERSFIELD

BAKERSFIELD, Dec. g. This
morning a. B. Fisher, prominent
builder and property owner of this city,
was arrested for stealing lumber. He
was caught in the act of carrying off
lumber. Fisher resisted arrest and hid
in a vacant building, escaping fropl
this. He was tracked to his tent A
pistol thrown away in his fight was
found.
A search of his premises revealed
about $500 worth of stolen lumber, in
Guiding new doors, window sashes. ETC.,
all piled up in plain view, a portion
of which has already been identified.
Two hundred dollars worth of provis-
ions from the Santa Fe eating house,
which was burgIarized two nights ago,
were found buried in the yard, besides
an immense quantity of other articles.
Fisher had built a fence around his
place and chicken house of the most
costly lumber to be had and from APP
pearances was preparing to build
himself a house as he had material
enough for that purpose.
Fisher has built three houses in Ba-
ksrsfeld and only last week completed
three others isz Kern city. 1t is now
certain that he stole q large part Of
the materials used.

CLEVER
BURGLARS
Chinese Are the Newest
Things With the
i" Jimmy"

Chinese are the latest burglars in
Honolulu. Two more We're captured
red-handed by the police shortly after
three o'clock yesterday morning while
trying to gain entrance to the Califor-
MIA saloon on Nuuanu' street. Two
other Cinnamon are already in jail for
attempting 10 break into tailor shop
on Beretania street on Saturday morn
ing.
Captain Opunui, the watch officer on
the early morning beat, was on his
rounds on Nuuanu street. When close
to the California saloon he heard a
noise which aroused his suspicious and
caused him to listen. On the makai
side of the saloon is lane leading to
the rear. The entrance to the lane is
barred at night by big wooden gates.
When the officer approached the gates
two Chinese who were inside came
close to the barrier and pretended to
converse. Captain Opunui, however
was not so easily fooled. He persuad-
ed himself that something was wrong
and went inside, capturing one of the
pair. The other took to his heels and
escaping through a lane leading out
to King street, disappeared in the di-
rection of the river. He was appre-
hended later by Officer Robert Parker
| at Aala.
Captain Opunui investigated and
found that a well laid plan for entering
the saloon was in progress. A box was
found beneath window which is fit
ted with two big frames in each of
which are six small panes of glass.
The Cinnamon had stood on the box
and patiently used a knife on the put
ty, removing it in strips from the
panes. One pane had been broken so
that hand could be inserted and
After removing most of the putty on
four panes the burglars Whitfield away
on the thin pieces of wood between the
panes, 1t being his intention to remove
at least four panes at once, thus pro-
viding ample space for crawling
through. Investigation showed also
that the window nearest the outer gate
had been tempered with, but owing to
its proximity to the street, was aban-
doned.
When Henry Vida. the saloon pro-
prietor, arrived at his place of bust
ness yesterday morning he found a
sack containing about ten pounds of
meat lying just within the gate, and a
half sack of rice under shed. The
meat consisted of raw and cooked
pieces. 1t was then aseertained that
a Chinese restaurant, the entrance to
which is on King street and the back
door close to that of the saloon, had
been entered and the eatables stolen.

As to Summer Hats

A pretty hat is Of tulle with net
work of pearls forming the overcrown,
and black velvet beneath the filmy
material Of the brim, while at the
back is a generous bow of black vel
vet ribbon.
Entire crowns. delicate as need be,
and consisting of the threads of beads
outlined and recrossed, also are sim
gularly effective over either white lace
or tulle. but make quite a different
effect from the huge knobs that were
noted some weeks ago. A really
elegant all white model is Of all white
chiffon and turns back at front, where
the brim is overlaid with a delicate
tracery of pearls, and a big pearl
buckle holds the soft curling plume
that trims the left side, says a writer
in the Washington Post.
Evening journal., 1902-05-06
The Absorbing Coat Question

The coat question is now the all
absorbing one, and never has there
been so much indecision as to which
is the correct style. AT one moment
we are informed positively that the
short coat, especially the Eton, is en-
tirely out of fashion, and the next
moment word is sent forth that the
Eton is still smart and in fashion.
There are. however, it is safe to say,
many more long coats being made
than short ones; that is, in cloth and
mohair. and the Eton jacket is so
modified and changed that it bears
little resemblance to the original
model The three-quarter length coat,
fitted at the back and sides, and with
a narrow straight front, is exceedingly
attractive. and the fronts faced with
lace and embroidery are made to be
worn turned back. There are two or
three different models in this length,
one with pleats at the back, one with
uleats all around the skirts, but more
without any pleats. Only a very
slender figure can stand so much
material in the skirts of a coat.
The loose street coats are, it must be
confessed, singdlarly like the loose
matinees or dressing jackets, and
while there is a certain smart appear
ance to them and an air of novelty
they are eccentric and only becoming
to tall. slender figures. They are sup
posed to fall loose form the shoulders,
in the same lines as a street boxcoat
and are often box pleated, which adds
to their curious shapeliness. These
Jackets are worn with yelling, lace and
batiste gowns, and are elegantly trim
med with lace applique and army
braiding.
Long lace coats now fit more close
ly to the figure and are unlined; one
of the newest models looks very much
like the old fashioned polonaise, for
it only comes half way down the skirt
in front. and is much longer at the
back. 1t is certainly an odd fashion,
but the coat is considered suitable to
wear over any gown. The long loose
boxcoats of lace, black or white, un-
lined. are immensely smart, but it is
also fashionable to have them lined
They are quite shapeless, and yet are
curved at the side seems. so that they
are really more generally becoming
than might be imagined. Irish point
and Chantilly make the handsOmest
coats. but there are also many of the
imitation French laces which are
most effective.
