MATE HEDVALL RUBS
OUT A SHIPS RECORD
Captain Bonifield Holds Him Respon-
sible for the Grounding of the
Steam Schooner NOrthland.

Captain S. Bonifield of the steam
schooner Northland produced evil
dence yesterday before United States
Inspectors Q. F. Bolles and Captain
John K. Bulger tending to show that
the grounding of his vessel off Point
Pinos on September 10 was due to
First Mate Peter e. Hedvall mistak-
ing the Point Pinos light for the
Santa Cruz light.
In support of his contention he pro-
duced his logbook, which showed
Enthusiastically that it had been tam
pered with.
In explanation Mate Hedvall said
that he suspected that he had spelled
Point Pinos incorrectly and that he
erased and rewrote it.
Chief Engineer Lindley testified
that the words Santa Cruz light" had
been partly erased and Point Pinos
light" written over them. Mate He'd
vail was on watch at the time of the
grounding. The matter was taken
under advisement.

WILL RESORT TO APPEALS.

Attorney COuntrymdn explained tndt
he would appeal to the United States
Supreme Court from the decision of
Judge de Haven if he did not lose the
right because he was not present when
the decision was rendered. If barred
because not on hand to give notice, he
said, a second petition would be sued
out before Circuit Judge Morrow and
the appeal taken from his court, If his
decision be adverse.
BY carrying the case to Washington
it is hoped to have the prosecution in
the State courts stayed until rulinS
shall be obtained there.
Countryman says he may seek
writ of habeas corpus in the Superior
Court, and if unsuccessful in gaining
the release of his client, appeal to the
State Supreme Court.

in court throughout the arraignment
proceedings, at the time the sensation
al discovery was made that a double"
of the defendant was to all intentS and
purposes taking his place. The pris-

What do you chance
when you buy a
Piano?
ADVERTISEMENTS.

WHEN YOU BUY A PIANO all you see is
the case, all you hear is the tone in the ware
rooms and the delightful music of the salesman's
argument-the rest you take on chance.
You can't tell how long that tone will last; you
can't ahead three years and know by the test Of
time that your instrument will prove the worth the
salesman claims for it, and you can't tell whether
you're paying hundred dollars too much or not
You HAVE to trust the dealer.
So go to piano concern you KNOW will treat
you fairly; to a concern with reputation for honor
able dealing and with but one price to everybody.
If you first decide to- go to Sherman, Clay & Co.
you've insured yourself right at the start as far as
risk is concerned.

FEDERAL JUDGE
FAILS WYMAN
Tries to Escape Examina-
ton in Police Court by
Habeas Corpus Process
ATTACKS PRIMARY LAW
De Haven Refuses to Inter-
fere With State Courts,
and Hearing Is Begun

Charles Wyman, accused of ballot-box
stuffing, sought to escape preliminary
examination before Police Judge Caba-
Miss yesterday By appealing to Judge
de Haven of the United States Dis
trict Court for a writ of habeas cor
pus, but the petition was denied and
the hearing of the defendant continued
before the committing magistrate
without interruption. The afternoon
was spent in the introduction Of cleo
ton records involved in the case, and
the examination will be resumed Fri
day afternoon at 2 o'clock.
Wyman surprised the prison OFF,
Gals shortly before noon by giving
himself I'D TO them, and the accom-
panying bOndsmen explained that
they wished to surrender him. 1t was
evident that the plan was to sue out
a writ of habeas corpus and prevent
the hearing in the Police Court that
had been set for o'clock
In the petition presented to the Fed
eral Court the contention was made
that the primary law of California is in
violation of the constitution of the Unit
ed States, in that ii diScriminates be-
tween political parties 1t provides that
a party must cast at least 3 per cent
of the total vote of the previous cleo
ton TO gain place on the official
ballot, and in many communities would
shut out. for example, the Prohibition
party, which is a national entity.
Therefore. the law being unconstitu-
tional, there was no law for Wyman to
violate, Countryman urged.
But Judge de Haven declared it to
be well established that Federal Courts
shall not interfere with the laws and
courts of a State until the avenues OF
remedy of the State shall have been
exhausted. In his opinion there were
no exceptional facts presented and
therefore no ground to justify interior

Great effort from great motives is the

The best time to give up bad habit Is

No man can pass into eternity for he is

DEVELOPMENT Of Character.

We are left in this world, not so much
for what we may do here, for the things
we may make, as that we ourselves may
grow into the becuty of Gods thought for
us. In the midst of all our occupations
and struggles, all our doing of tasks, all
our longings and desires, all our expe-
riences of every kind, there is work
going on in US which is quite as important
as anything We are doing with our mind
or with our hands.
In the school the boy has his tasks and
lessons. According as he is diligent or in.
dolent is his progress in his studies. In
ten years, if he is faithful, he masters many
things and stands high in his class. Or, if
he is Indifferent and careless, he gets only
a smattering of knowledge, with so many
links missing that his education is of little
practical use to him. But meanwhile there
has been going on in him another educa-
tion-a growth or development of charac-
ter. The mind grows by exercise, just as
the body does.
Then there is also subjective moral i'm
preston, produced by the way the task is
performed. If one is faithful and con-
scientious, truly doing his best, the en-
deavor leaves mark of beauty in the life.
But if one is unfaithful, indo.ent, false to
ones self, there is left wound, trace of
marring and blemish, weakening of the
life.-C. P. Miller.

Seeds That VIII Grow.

The soul of man is the great masterpiece
of the great Master Builder.-J. Ritchie
Smith.
He is building on the sand who makes
the opinion OF others the ground of his
conduct.-United Presbyterian.
It is noble sight to see an honest man
cleave his own heart in twain and fling
away the baser part of it.-Charles Reade.
The capacity of our SORROWS belongs to
our grandeur, and the loftiest of our race
are those who have had the profoundest
sympathies, because they have had the
profoundest sorrows.-Henry Giles.
Life is what we are alive to. It is not
length, but breadth. To be alive only to
appetite, pleasure, pride, money making,
and not to goodness and kindness, purity
and love, history, poetry, music, flowers,
stars, God and eternal hopes. is to be all
but dead.-Malthie D. Babcock.
None but the fully occupied can appre.
ciate the delight of suspended, Or, rather,
of varied labor. 1t is toll that creates hoh.
days; there is no royal road-yes, that is
the royal road-to them. Life cannot be
made up Of recreations; they must be gar

bert Ann Taylor.
If thou canst not continually recollect
self, yet do it sometimes, at least once a
day, namely, in the morning or at night,
examine thyself what thou hast done-how
thou hast behaved thyself in word, deed
and thought, for in these perhaps thou has
oftentimes offended against God and thy
neighbor.- kempis.

All within the charmed circle, whether of

There is going on at@the present

for the sake of gaining harder and
stronger metal, because the entire ope-

a comparatively slight enlargement

VOTE DENIED THE BLACKS.
Maryland Senate Passes Bill to Limit
the Suffrage.

The democratic organization meas
ure, being a proposed amendment to
the Maryland state constitution to reg
u1ate the suffrage and admittedly for
the. purpose of eliminating the negro
vote, was passed in the state senate
at Annapolis Thursday.
No republican senator had anything
to say in opposition to it, nor was it
championed by any Of the democrats.
The bill received II votes, all demo
cratic, while the eight republican SEN
ators were solidly against it.
