Raymond's Weired and Startling Per-
Torrance ExciteS Whole Towns.

Last Friday evening at the Opera
House the famous Raymond Of whom
the papers and people in the adjoin-
ing towns have said SO much, made his
initial appearance before local audi
ence. His success was instantaneous.
The moment he stepped smilingly to
the footlights the audience realized
that they had before them a remarka-
BILE man. There is some thing strange
ly and indefinably attractive about
this magician and his weired enter
tainment. Possessed OF skill equal
to Herrman's, a manner more pleas
ing than Keller's, fascinating per-
sonality and peculiarly witty way
of presenting his experiments, COM
bine to make to make an artist whose
equal we have never seen! On last
Saturday evening the Opera House
was packed to the doors with the most
prominent people In town, to witness
lsaymond's second appearance. All
seats were taken aud many in the rear
were standing. To say that the big
audience was delighted would be put
ting it mildly. Never in the history
of the Opera House have we seen a
better pleased audience! Rabbits,
pigeons. dozens Of handkerchiefs,
bushels of colored ribbons and big
flags, vegetables, fruits and candies,
and q huge duck were coDjured from
nowhere and caused to instantly ap-
pear at the will OF this wonderful ma
sician! Questions were written by
various members of the audienc and
returned by them. Never the less
when Raymond'S young lady assistant
was introduced and hypnotised. She
read the questions CORE city, told 3
. watch number and located severa
lost and stolen articles. Many Of Ray
mond's effects are so startling tina
they seem almost unbelievable! Miss

PLAN WHICH NAY SATISFY POWERS.
Assassins VIII Have to Leave Country
Until Quiet Il Restored When They
May Ret1rn-United States to Adopt
Attitude of England Regarding
New Dyrssty.

Belgrade. Servia, June 22.-Great
Britain has practically broken of
diplomatic relations with Servia. The
British minister, Sir G. F. Bonham,
Will leave here Monday for England.
The consul OF Great Britain, w. g.
Thesiger, will take charge of British
intepests.
The new Servian constitution was
gazetted Saturday, together with
decree abo1ishing the constitution of
April s, 1901, and all ordinances con-
tratening the new constitution.
Col. Mischief, who took prominent
part in the assassination at the pail
ace, has been gazetted commandant Of
the military district of Belgrade.
How Powers May Ne Satisfied.
Unless King Peter is prepared to al
together ignore the foreign demands
for the punishment of the assassins of
King Alexander and Queen Draga his
only means Of satisfying any require
ments appear to be to persuade the
criminals to absent themselves until
quiet is restored, when they will be
permitted to resume their places in
the army. The provisional govern
ment holds ONCE solely at the will of
the army, and should King Peter
promise to punish the officers impli-
Gated it is as likely as not that the
army will force the withdrawal of the
invitation to occupy the throne. It
is suggested in official quarters that
Russia may possibly advise the officers
concerned to so absent themselves.
Course Of Our Government.
Washington, June 22.-The United
States government has adopted an at
tituae similar to that OF England to-
ward the new Servian dynasty. It will
be in no haste to recognize a govern
ment created by assassination in the
absence Of some exhibition of dis
position to punish the guilty. There
fore Mr.. jackson, who besides being
minister to Greece is also United
States minister to Servia, will not pre-.
sent his credentials to the government
OF King Peter at present. In fact these
credentials have not been prepared
He had credentials to King Alexanr
der, which he had never presented,
and he was actually on his way from
Athens to Belgrade at the time Of the
assassination Of the king to whom he
was about to present his papers. It
happens TINT the trade between the
United States and Servia is trifing
and the interests Of the two countries
touch at few points, SO that there a
really little embarrassment likely to
follow the failure to establish diplo
matte relations.
To Follow EnsIand's Attitude.

RIOTERS ROUTED.
Miiitiamen Defend Jail at the Cost Of
Seven Lives.

Seven persons are dead and four
teen injured as the result of riot at
Evansville. Indiana. The crisis came
at the end of four days rioting and
general lawlessness as a result Of the
war between whites and negroes.
Miitiamen have been engaged in
guarding the Jail where sixteen ne
groes are confined. From Z o'clock
in the morning until the hour of the
catastrophe mt night the crowd surged
around the Jail, calling the militia
men vile names, assaulting them with
stones and berating the deputy sher-
IFS who guarded the Jail At 1890
o'clock the rioters pressed forward
with determination and innocent on
lockers ana the curious followed.
Captain Blum of the national guard
ordered a charge on the rioters. Grad
ually the crowd was forced back, the
soldiers using their bayonets and
butts of their guns. Suddenly a riot
err fell. A soldier tried to drag him
to his feet, but before he could do
so was assaulted by a rioter. Stones
and boulders began to fly through the
air. A soldier was struck with a rock
and fell. A rioter was knocked down
with gun butt and then a shot was
fired
The one shot started fusilade of
musketry and shotgun fire from the
| defenders of the Jail and a scattered
return fire from the rioters. Fully 300
shots were fired from the jail win
dows, the court house steps imme-
diately opposite and the soldiers in
the streets. No one KNOWS who fired
the first shot The soldiers say it was
the rioters.
Governor Durbin is said to have in
structed the authorities not to jeop-
ardize the safety of the Jail with
halfway measures. The soldiers and
deputies fired into the retreating mob
Of men who ran into Division street
For fifteen minutes the firing con-
tinued. When II ceased the soldiers
had the place. In front of the stag
gering band Of fifty-eight soldiers lay
the dead and wounded. Means and
shrieKs of agony and fear came from
the injured.

SNAKE IN PIANO.
Reptile Five Feet Long Enseonces II.
self Inside a Music Box.

A musical snake ensconcej itself on
Che inside Of an old-fashioned square
piano in the house of Miss Mollie
Carr, near Charleston, Ind, and did
not make its presence known there
until several. days ago, when 1t was
charmed from it's hiding place by a
melodious strain drawn from the in
strument by Mr.. Lyon Morrison of In
dianapolis, who was visiting his
daughter, who is spending the sum-
mer with Miss Carr.
Mr.. Morrison ran his fingers over
the keys, and, drifting into soft
melody, did not look up for moment.
When he did he saw the head of a
huge black snake swinging to and fro
before him like the pendulum of q
clock.
The snake was charmed and made
no effort to avoid his glance. When he
ceased to play it gradually colled It,
self back into its old abode. The lid
was removed and the reptile killed. 1t
measured nearly five feet.

LOST IN CLOUDBURS1'
EXCURSION PARTY ON TROLLEY
CAR ARE ENGULFEo.
Wall Of Water Sweeps Down upor
Unsuspecting Merrymakers and
Many Lives Are Lost.

A telephone message received from
jeanette, a short distance east OF
Pittsburg, Pa. is to the effect that
cloudburst struck that place Sunday
night, and conflicting reports say that
from rs to so persons have been
drowned.
Il is said that Oxford park dam,
near Jeanette, burst, engulfing an ex-
cursion party on trolley cars.
Oxford park is summer resort
about mile east of jeanette and sew
eral hundred men, women and chill
dren are known to have been there
during the afternoon. Just how many
lost tbeir lives is not known. The
reports are conflicting, and run from
rs to 100.
The damage done by the cloud
burst in the vicinity Of Greensburg
will not be less than s250,000. Brush
creek rose higher than ever before
and washed away everything along its
banks. Scores Of people barely had
time to escape from their houses, so
sudden was the rise in the stream.
At least 800 persons were at the
park seeking relief from the heat
When the storm burst the greater
number sought the hillside, preferring
the shelter of the forest trees to the
park buildings, because they did not
care to be below the level of the dam
and but little above the dry season
level of Brush creek.
When the dam broke a solid wall
of water twenty feet high rushed
down and completely filled the narrow
ravine with its car tracks, car barn
and restaurant. In front of the cal
barn stood car containing from fiji
ty to seventy passengers, many OF
them seeking to return to Jeanette
others using 1t as a temporary shell
ter.
With the immense body OF water
behind 1t, the crest of the flood bore
down with irresistible force. AS II
swept down the narrow ravine 1t car
ried with it the loaded street car and
the crowded restaurant. The fioot
was filled with men, women and chill
dren struggling for their lives.
The victims of the flood grasped
anything that might save them from
the fury of the water, seized the troll
ley wires and met death by being cleo
trocuted instead Of being drowned
Several bodies have already been re
covered, that show death was the re
suit of this cause.

Supposed Arizona Murderer. Captured
After Being Wounded.
A special from Douglass, Arizona,
states that Officer Lon Graham shot
and fatally wounded a man named
Smith, supposed to be the man who
killed Officer Thomas Vaughn and
wounded Graham at Douglass on May
16. The shooting occurred in a sa.
loon. Graham recognized Smith and
drew a gun on him, demanding that
he throw up his hands. Smith
reach for his gun and Graham shot
him in the neck. Thousands Of people
were attending the carnival, and with
difficulty Smith was removed to the
hospital, where Captain Rynning OF
the Rangers placed a guard of two
men. High feeling exists against
Smith, and should he recover It will
be difficult for the officers to protect
him.
