Rv Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
LONDON, Dec. 16.-Royalty greatly
enjoys putting aside its dignities al
times. Recently a merry party stayed
for a week at south coast hotel. The
chief member of the coterie was de-
lightful middle aged woman who bore
the title of Lady D.. She charmed
everybody by her gracious manners
There was absolutely nothing that
could be described as stuck up" about
her. She talked freely to other women
staying at the hotel.
When she took her departure with
her friends the guests remaining felt
that a ray of sunshine had gone out
of their autumnal lives. But the
naughty wife of Il parvenu baronet had
her suspicious. She consulted her
bible-Burke's Peerage-without which
she never travels, and found that Lady
D. had no place in it. In triumphant
tones she announced her discovery.
'I thought from the first" she added.
''that she was altogether too free and
easy to be the real thing. There is
no mstaking the genuine aristocracy."
Then somebody enlightened her.
Perhaps you didn't look in the right
place in Burkes. The lady you are
speaking of is better known as the
Princess Christian, and, of course, you
know that she is sister of the king"
1t was the truth. The princess was
enjoying the delights of hotel life in
her own land, strictly incog. But that
baronets wife will never forgive her.

Mrs. Nellie Hughes, Formerly of Santa

Hazard on Charge of
Stealing 5000

With a cry Mrs. Nellie Hughes of In
glewood darted away from her hus-
band on South Spring street early last
evening, ran up to Patrolman Matus-
kiwicZ, who was standing few yards
away, and pointed to man who after
wards gave his name as p. ID. Hazard,
whispering: There is the man thaI
stole 5000 from me-
Annarently the man did not hear her
of if he did he did not allow it to be
known. And when the officer tapped
Hazard on the shoulder he seemed
surprised The trio were Joined by Mr.
Hughes and a friend Not wishing to
court publicity they stepped into n
doorway.
Mrs. Hughes hastened to explain that
she recognized Hazard as the man
who in the guise of Il palmist and using
the name of B. r. Walker, had
worked her for $500 in Santa Ana
some time ago. She said that the Of
ficers had failed to find the man ana
she had nearly forgotten the affair.
At the detective headquarters Haz-
Zard was put in the 'sWeat box, but
refused to confess his connection with
the swindle or that he had ever been
engaged in palmistry. He said that
he had been following the races for The

during the month of April, 1904, and
his apparent success aroused the in
quisitiveness of Mrs. Hughes.
Man and Money Disappear
After calling upon Walker and re-
ceiVing a reading that seemed to be
quite wonderful, Mrs. Hughes asked the
palmist to solve some deep mysteries.
The response was that he must hold
$1,000 of her money in his hand while
he went into the trance in order 10

and after it was discovered that the

Mrs. Hughes was married shortly
after and left Santa Ana for Ingle-
wood. Since that time she had given
up hope. Last evening when she dis
covered the man she did not waste time
until she found an officer and informed
him of her discovery. Mr.. Hughes, as
does his wife, identifies Hazard as

Pawn tickets were found in Hazard

that they have the right man-that
Hazard is Walker, the palmist.

DYING GIRL GASpS TESTIMONY
WHICH MAY WIN MOTHERS SUIT

on TO the various court rooms, only 90
find that all the judges were absent.
Wright went through the form OF
swearing the attorney as to the truth
fulness Of the documents as the two
dashed down the court house steps.
After record breaking trip through
the downtown streets the two managed
to find Judge Bordwell who signed the
documents and granted the necessary
permission.
Then there was another hurried trip
back to San Gabriel, and Reymert
reached the Mora cottage at o'clock.
In spite of the pain which each word
cost her, the young woman sobbed and
gasped out her evidence In the case
while an attendant notary kneeled be-
side her and received her oath, spoken
in mere whisper.
The suit, which has caused the MEM
bers of the Mora family much trouble.
was brought several weeks ago by
Francisco Perez, a business man of San
Gabriel.
Descendant of Pioneers
Many years ago Mrs. Isabel Mora, the
defendant to the action, became the
housekeeper of Padro Lassus, an old
rancher of the San Gabriel valley. The
old man was descendent of the brave
Spanish band who founded the old San
Gabriel mission in 1771 and he had still
retained his small grant Of land just
outside the mission walls.
Two years ago Lassus became ILL., He
was suffering from senile debility, and
through all his prolonged and fretful
illness Mrs. Mora was his constant
nurse and friend.
Three days before the death of Pedro
Iassus Mrs. Mora was called to Los
Angeles to attend some of her children
who were suffering from diphtheria.
When she arrived here, expecting to
stay only a few moments, she was
uuarantined in the house and was not
allowed to return to her dying ward at
San Gabriel.
The old man, however, was well pro-
vided for by friends until Francisco
Perez had him removed to his home,
and there he died.
When Mrs. Mora returned to her
home. which had been the home OF
Lassus, she was told by Perez that he
was the owner of the little property,
which he claimed had been decided to
him by L,assus several hours before the
old mans death.
The controversy was taken to court
Mrs. Mora claiming to be heir to the
property as recompense for service ana
because Lassus had promised it to her.
She alleged Perez had obtained the
deed through duress.
The final settlement will be made TINS
week and it is claimed the evidence
brought out through the sacrifice of the
diving girl may turn the decision IN
favor of the mother.

the throat, yesterday dictated as her last
speech on earth deposition which will
be used as principal evidence In behalf

appeal was Immediately taken to the
superior court by Attorney James ID.

During the past few days Attorney
Reymert learned that Agrippina, the 1S-
year-old daughter of Mrs. Mora, had
been witness at n transaction be-
tween her mother and Perez, which If
related in court might change the suit
in favor of the woman. He promptly
subpoenaed the young woman to APP

witness was dying.
without a moments delay the attor-
ney hastened to San Gabriel, and there
his worst expectations were proven
correct He found the young woman,
racked and tortured by disease and
scarcely able to speak II word. With
pitiful smile she signified her willing
ness to make deposition in the case,
and the attorney FASTENED back to Los

Race With Death
1t was race with death, for, accord

physician, the girl had only few hours
left in which she would have control OF
her power of speech.
The attorney dashed to his office, and
his stenegrapher had the necessary
papers ready requesting permission OF
the Judges of the supreme court to
take a deposition in the case. Hat in

United States Supreme Court
Decides Against
Packers.

Washington, Jan. 30.-The supreme
court of the United States yestesday
decided the case of the United States
VS.. Swift & Co.. known as the beef
trust case, charging conspiracy among
the packers to fix prices on fresh
meats, etc. The opinion was handed
down by Justice Holmes and affirmed
the decision Of the court below which
was against the packers.
In his opinion Justice Holmes dis
cussed at length the various conten.
tons Of the packers and disposed OF
them individually. He admitted that
some of the charges were less speci.
fic than desirable, but said this was
necessarily true on account of the
vast extent of the field covered He
added that sufficient evidence lad
peen shown to prove continuous Of.
lenses and offenses of such a nature
20 justify the proceeding. The opin-
ON continues the injunction granted
against the packers under the Sher.
man antitrust law by the lower
courts. The opinion was concurred
in by all the members Of the court.

The premonitory symptoms Of paraly.

sometimes an unc, .trollable quivering

I could see results that encouraged me.
My condition kept steadily improving,

Mr.. Hayden $ home is at No. 252 West

should be tried by every sufferer from
partial paralysis i'll any Of its stages.
