ABANDON EFFORT
To RULE THINGS

Owing TO the exposure of its plans and
the subsequent strenuous objection on the
part of Governor Pardee, the California
State Dental Association held a meeting
Saturday night and struck from the den
tai bill which they had so quietly recon
structed the clause which was intended
to take from the Governor the power Of
appointing the members of the State
Board of Dental Examiners.
A few members of this exclusive So
ciety. without consulting or wishing to
hear the sentiments of the great majority
of dentists, had reconstructed the dental
bill of 1901 in such a fashion that they
were charged by the unconsulted profess
further their own interests. Governor
Pardee on hearing of the proposed bill
at once placed his stamp of disapproval
upon il by stating positively that he
would not sign IL as long as the objec-
tionabIe clause directly affecting his pow
er was embodied in its amendments.
Another portion of the new bill to which
the dentists at large are Directing is the
proposed levying of a license fee of 81 a
year on every practitioner in the State.
They argue that they have the right to
have a voice I'm any bill projected for
passage at the Legislature which affects
the profession which they represent. They
claim that the California State Dental As
ISOLATION is not a representative associa-
ton, inasmuch as it is an exclusive So
ciety, and not open to every legal and
ethical dental SURGEON in the State. They
are satisfied with the bill of 1901, and will
make fight TO prevent the passage of
the new bill in it's entirety

SAYS COACHMAN
TOOK HER COAT

Mrs Sarah Rodgers, ITO Pacific ave-
nue., procured a search warrant from
Police Judge Cabaniss yesterday to re-
cover from the. wife of her coachman,
Louis Stern. possession of a sealskin
sacque, valued at $3.50.
Last Monday she was driven in her
carriage TO store on Kearny street. She
left her sealskin sacque in the carriage
while she went into the store, and when
she returned to the carriage the coat
had disappeared. She asked Stern If he
had seen any one take il from the car
rage, but he denied knowing anything
about it,
Il did not like the idea Of losing my
coat, she said. and was inclined to be-
lieve that my coachman knew something
about it. Yesterday 1 surprised to
see my coachman's wife wearing the
missing sealskin. She was formerly my
maid. Stern has been my coachman for
three years and L have shown him many
favors- L feel keenly his deception as
had the utmost confidence in him"
She was advised TO swear to a warrant
for Stern's arrest on a charge of grand
larceny, but demurred, she did not
want any publicity. She thought she
could get a search warrant and nothing
would be known about ii. he probable
ity is that when she finds that she has
not avoided publicity she may change her
mind TO having Stern arrested.
Mrs. Rodgers came into prominence
some years ago by marrying "Ducksey'
Rosenbaum, who died. leaving her all of
his wealth. She then married Harry Rod
gers, an advertising agent. but about a
year afterward she procured a divorce
from him. She is a prominent figure at
he racetrack. where she is known as a
successful plunger.

CREW IS COM|NG
FROM THE EAST
Will Handle the Pike and
Grampus on Subma-
rine Trials.
Holland Boats to Shortly I'm
dergo Their Official
Tests.

Great interest is manifested In naval
circles in the coming trials of the HoI-
land submarine torpedo boats Grampus
end Pike. which occur during the frst
weeks of February. Captain Frank r
Gable and six experts of the Holland
Company are expected to arrive in the
city tomorrow to take charge of the
boats during the final tests.
The naval committee to act for the
Government has not yet been designated,
but will be chosen from officers attached
to this station Captain Cable is the ex-
pert navigator for the Holland Company
and has had charge of all the submarine
boats built by that CORPORATION. He was
in command of the Adder, which re-
manned under water for twelve hours off
Staten Island a few months ago With
him there will be an engineer, electrician
gunner and three experienced assistants
A mile course, staked out in quarter-mile
sections, has been laid out. where plenty
OF sea room and ample depth of water
IS available for a trial of all the essential
requirements of the boats There will
be speed trials, both submerged and sur
lace, and an endurance test. which re-
qulres a surface run of twelve continuous
Ecurs. The speed required by the Gov
eminent is seven knots under water and
elSht KNOTS on the surface. The Gram
pus, in recent builders trial made
$40 knots on the surface without using
all her power
The submerged test requires that the
boats be subjected to a one-fourth-niIe
t1lal below water, bat the Adder exceeded
this limit materially. A feature of the
coming test will be that after steaming
the required distance the boats are re-
CURED to discharge torpedoes at an i'm
aS1nary object while fifteen feet below
water and then to return to the starting
point all the time submerged except for
an instant to take sight.
Inc storage batteries of the Pike are
now being charged with sufficient power
TO last for weeks. Fifty cubic feet of air
subjected to a pressure of 1000 atmos-
pheres will be stored in the air tanks,
and enough gasoline to run the boats for
a distance of 1000 miles will be stored
somewhere within the limits of the dimfn-
utive craft.
At the submersion trial Captain Gable
and his assistants will remain for at least
twelve hours at depth Of forty feet be-
low water level. 1t is confidently expected
by the representa- tive of the Holland COM
pany that every one of the exacting tests
required by the naval department will
be more than accomplished The cost of
one of these torpedo boats to the navy
exceeds $4,000 They are believed to be
the most formidable defensive submarine
craft in existence. The trials will last
for month and be conclusive of all the
merits claimed by the inventors for these
boats.

SAY TRUSTEES
USURP POWERS

The spirit of warfare which added ami
nation to the meetings of the trustees
Of the Odd Fellows Cemetery Associa-
ton seems TO be still lowering about the
meeting place of the board and has stir
red up strife among the present board
Of trustees as it did in the board which
retired several months ago. AS in the
case of the old board, the courts have
been appealed to by the objectionists. and
an injunction has been prayed for.
The suit was filed yesterday, the plain
tiffs being Trustees w. E. Lutz, F. c.
Siebe, a. w. Scott and Albert MEME
They ask the court to restrain the other
members of the board from usurping the
functions of the entire board, as they al
lege they did at a meeting held last Nom
day. Judge Hebbard issued temper
airy injunction, returnable before him Feb
ruary 3.
According to the complaint. the board
of trustees consists of eleven members
and it is claimed that five of the mem

with intent to usurp the powers of the
board met last Monday and, without con-
sidering the question of quorum, elected
two new trustees and the officers of the
board
The new directors are John Loane and
Adelbert Paula. 1t is alleged that imme-
diately following their election they took
their seats and proceeded with the cleo
ton Of the following officers of the asso-
citation: Diedrich Becker. president; John
Loane. vice president: Henry II. Earle
superintendent, and r. ii. Countryman,
attorney.
The plaintiffs allege that as there was
no quorum present at the meeting the
election of Loane and Paula was Illegal
and that therefore the subsequent cleo
ton of officers was violation of the laws
governing the board of trustees in its
management of the properties of the as

A FRIGHTFUL DEATH
The Wife Of a Marshall County FARMER
Burns With his DWsllInA

a most shocking tragedy occurred !,
last Sunday evening at the farm of
John SlaJengren in Marshall county
ABOUT eight miles east of Claremont.
W rs. slatengren was preparing sup
per. Her husband was absent, hav-
ing gone to the place of Lewis John
son IN Riverside township. The baby
was asleep in a cab in room adjoining
the Kitchen. The three other child.
rem were playing outside. The ar
tesian we'll rig of Dinsmore & Terry
was at the place having just COM
pleted a we'll. The we'll crew were in
or around a cook Car, but not so Sit
uated that the house opened toward
them. Suddenly some one discoverd
the house to be on fire, and immed-
lately Mrs. Slatengren rushed out
doors, her whole body erveloped in
flame. She turned, even inner frenzy
remembering the baby, and sprung
back into the house followed by two
men who had just come up. They
seized bed clothes to throw over her
and smother the flames, but the bed
clothing was also on fire. They were
compelled to get out leaving the burn
ing woman but saving the baby which
was burned quite severely.
! Two explosions had been heard in
quick succession just before the fire
was discovered. 1t is supposed that
Oil or gasoline being used to hurry the
fire caused the explosion and spread
the fire all over the house in SO brief
a space of time.
H The house wasagood buildingnicely
furnished, and the family altogether
happily situated, when this terrible
calamity, with the suGdeness Of a
thunderbolt, fell on this home. The
most pathetic thing Of all was the
frantic efforts of the children to rush
into the burning house, crying for
their mother. The men had to seize
them and hold them by main strength
from seeking their mother in the
flames. .sss
Mrs. Slatengren was the daughter
of Jonas Holt, one of the two old settlers
whose double funeral occurred few
months ago at the Swedish burying
ground. She had been to his grave
with the whole family just the day
before strewing it with flowers.
1t was not until the following morn
ing that the remains could be recover
ed from the debris. The charred trunk
was found at the bottom of the cellar.
The funeral took place at 2 O'Clock
Tuesday afternoon.
j Mr.. Slatengren was the secretary
of the Evangelical Mutual Insurance
Company, and it is supposed the books
were burned as nothing could be
saved.
