II LAND or A

BY Edmund w. Putnam.
Ear-far out where the sea turns gold
In the sunsets dying CLEANS,
Where the purple sky and the ocean
meet
Beginneth the Sea Of Dreams.
Whose restful waters murmur low,
And a drowsy rhythm keep,
AS out to the West, by their lullabies.
We drift in our Boats of Sleep.
GUITAR out till our Earthly Cares
Are left in the dusk behind,
And Troubles distant voice IL lost
In the whisperings Of the wind;
Out-on the shimmering golden Sea,
Till the soft-tongued ripples cease
At the dreamy City Of Blissful Calm,
On the shores Of the Land of Peace.
Where our tired Spirits solace find
Beneath the Dream Mounts crest.
Mid the shadowy groves and foun-
tains cool
OF the Gardens of Perfect Rest;
Where Lethe lazes its languid course
On its way to the tranquil Sea,
And the Slumber breezes stir the
leaves
To a soothing melody
Where. too, s~now-white on the noun.
tain-side,
Hlga over the City fair,
Stretch sskyWard the misty Dinnacles
or our Castles In the Air:
In whose unbroken quietude
Our fondest visions bide,
And send us back with Hope re-
freshed
On the ebb of the golden tide.
: Where the Sorrow sears are smoothea
away,
And the heart, in It's pain-racked
breast,
Finds balm for its throbbing agony,
Far out in that distant West
At the end Of nightly journeying
Where the murmuring waters
cease,
At the w~hite-walled City Of Bllssful
Calm,
On the shores of the Land of Peace.

QUIETLY We'd
IN THIS CITY
Maybe1 Agee of Stockton
Becomes the Wife of W. L.
Mcclure, a Young Lawyer

Disregarding the conventionalities
that usually attend marriage ceremo-
nies and refraining from even notifying
their friends and relatives Of their In
tentions, William L. MCGUIRE, widely
known young attorney Of Hanford, and
Miss Maybell Agee, daughter OF Mr..
and Mrs. William Agee, prominent res
idents of Stockton, were quietly mar
ried in this city yesterday. The cere-
mony was performed by Archbishop
Montgomery at his residence, and i'm
mediately after the happy young couple
went to the Palace Hotel. there to ar
range for an extended bridal tour.
The first intimation McGuire's friends
received of his marriage was when he
visited the Palace with his bride and
quietly registered. Later in the day the
couple dispatched to the brides parents
in Stockton the first news of their we'd
ding, and while waiting for response
and the expected parental blessing the
husband wired his own relatives Of his
nuptial event.
Mrs. Mcclure is handsome brunette,
who was reared in Kings County, where
she first met her husband during visit
there. 1t was a love match from the
start, and when the young lady re-
turned to the present home OF her
parents in Stockton, MCGUIRE persisted
in his wooing until the fair maiden had
pledged her heart to him. Recently she
1ourneyed to the south again to visit
an aunt, and while there she and her
future husband agreed upon an early
marriage and made their plans accord
ingly. Two days ago young MCGUIRE
came to this city, and his bride followed
later. arriving here yesterday in time
to fulfill the important engagement.
! Attorney MCGUIRE was among the
first students to enter Stanford Univer-
sity. and on leaving that institution
went to Hanford to practice law. He is
the legal adviser of number OF oil
companies there and in Coalinga- He
is also a United States Court Commits
sioner for Southern California, but
spends a great deal of his time in this
CITY. where he is a member Of several
clubs and enjoys large circle of ac-
quaihtances.

WANTS NO MORE
CHINESE CASES
Judge Dunno Takes the OPP
portunity on a Motion to
Express Strong Disgust

When the case Of Lou Sing, charged
Judge Dunne's court yesterday to be
set for trial motion was made by At
torney Frank G. Drury to dismiss 1t
on the ground that a jury in the case
OF Lou Lee, tried on a similar charge
on Thursday, had brought in verdict
of acquittal.
The Judge said he was disgusted with
Chinese cases and he sincerely hoped
that no more would be assigned to his
court. "a number Of witnesses" said
the Judge, swear one way and a num-
ber the other way, and each side can
get white witnesses to bear out the
statements of the Chinese. These for
eigners come to this country and have
no respect for our laws. have no fault
to find with the verdict Of the jury in
the Lou Lee case, but 1 cannot help
commenting on the fact that several
policemen came into court and testified
that the character of the complaining
witness was bad. 1t seems to me
strange that peace officers would do
such a thing. 1 do not want any more
of these cases in this court"
The Judge reserved his decision on
the motion to dismiss the Lou Sing case
till June 25.
Lou Lee was charged with firing a
shot at Kun Chin in Baker alley on
March 20. and Lou Sing with firing a
shot at Louie Poy at the same time
and place. They belonged to rival
topps and each claimed that the other
fired the shots.
