MANY THINK LIBRARY DIREc-

MEMBERS READY TO ACT
Assertion That General Public De,
mands Dismissal Of Commits
sloners Is Denied at the
City Hall

ut is preposterous to consider for a
moment that the council will agree with
Mayor McAleer in his declaration that
the general public demands the removal
Of the library board, when after sew
eral weeks OF agitation on the part of
the women's clubs there we're but forty
two women, and few men present at
the much advertised and heralded '1n-
vestlgation which took place in the
council chamber week ago." declared
q citizen of Los Angeles, who Is in
terested in the case, and continued:
"The members Of the council are
elected by the people to conduct affairs
Of the city and the people expect the
councilmen to employ business methods
in all things. The members of the
council keep a careful hand on the pub
lie pulse and they, better than anyone
else can discern a general public
demand and distinguish 1t from agita-
ton, launched hurriedly and without
proper preparation. They know when
there is popular public demand, and
they also know that the great public
demand is to conduct the city in the
best possible manner, and it is folly
to believe that they will back up the
mayor in the discharge Of commits
sioners whose affront consists in an
effort TO do their. duty"
Library Board Ready to Act
These were the sentiments expressed
by city officials and politicians at the
city hall yesterday and also by many
business men. The library directors
have quit talking, they are preparing
to act.
Mayor McAleer started his campaign,
to secure the sufficient votes in the
council to confirm his action in re-
moving the board yesterday, it is said.
For some time yesterday the Sixth
ward councilman, Houghton, was clos
eted with the mayor, but later refused
to talk. 1t is well known that Hough-
ton never omits a chance to make
trouble for the mayor, and politicians
smiled at the thought that McAleer
should tip his hand to the man least
likely 70 support him.

CALIFORNIA; EXHIBIT
AST0NISHES VISITORS
Assistant Secretary GurIey Returns
Enthusiastic From Trip to
Portland Exposition

Assistant Secretary Gurley of the
chamber of commerce returned yester-
day morning from the Portland expos.-
ton, whittier he journeyed July % In
charge of the invading hosts of South
ern California to attend the week of
festivities, which concluded with Los
Angeles day, Saturday.
He reports that Southern California
opened the eyes of visitors by the large
attendance of persons so far from home
and the great display Of the fruits and
products of this portion of the state.
He said:
California has the grandest exhibit
on the grounds and no state repre-
sented at the exposition can equal 1t.
The visitor wanders through our state
building for hours without seeing the
same exhibit twice. The resources Of
California are so varied that our large
exhibit does not require duplication in
order to make the excellent showing
which is winning praise every hour of
the day.
"Our delegation numbered 110 per.
sons and we did our best to make our
selves evident, succeeding admirably, I
believe. OF course, Los Angeles day
was the big day of the week as It
should be, but all the others days were
fittingly celebrated. DR.. Lamb was the
official orator for the Angelenos and did
his part with credit The yellow badge
was everywhere in evidence during the
week and I am informed that the daily
average shows the Californian pre-
dominates among the visitors"

Dave Villa stood before Police Judge
Chambers yesterday morning with

Two hours later Dave was found again

HERCULES MUST
SERVE SENTENCE
INSANITY EXAMINATION IS
DENIED
TO BE SENTENCED FRIDAY
Relatives Are Refused inquiry Into
Mental Condition, Judge Will
bur Declining to Reopen
Case

Amos Hercules last hope for mod
flied sentence for killing Timothy Sc
grue about two years ago faded yes
terday when Judge Wilbur decided ad-
versely to the application for an ex-
animation as to his sanity.
Judge Wilbur declined to reopen the
case by granting the application, and
Hercules will be sentenced on Friday
to serve the remainder Of his life be-
hind prison bars.
The application claiming insanity
was filed by George Hercules, brother
Of the convicted man, who arrived in
Los Angeles several days ago from
Louisville.
According to the allegation Of the
brother several members of the Her
cules family have been mentally af-
fected. During the month of Septem-
ber, 1893, Amos Hercules, who at that
time was in the employ of "a railroad
at Louisville, ATTEMPTED to race a
freight train. Hercules was on hand
car on the track in front of the freight
and when his strength failed the train
crashed into him, seriously injuring his
spine and head.
His Eccentrlcitles
Prior to that time he was an excel
lent musician and an artist with the
violin. After the accident, according
to the assertion of the brother, he
could not distinguish one note from
another, but kept his violinS and told
his friends he was master.
Hercules then went into the grocery
business. He was eccentric and often
when prospective buyers were in the
place he would drive them out and
close up shop. When he came to Los
Angeles he professed to be an expert
carpenter and upon that statement
was employed but was able to hold the
job for half a day only.
He asserted he was an expert photo
grapher and was hired by a local con-
Germ but was discharged when he was
discovered trying to develop a plate
in the bathroom instead of the dark
room.
Shortly after that time he became
mixed up in a difficulty at the Redon-
dc car shops, which ended in the
shooting of Timothy Segrue.
When Hercules was arraigned on the
murder charge he showed symptoms OF
insanity and was sent to Highlands
He asserted that he was fully restored
mentally several months ago and
asked to be returned for trial.
Sentence is to be passed upon him
Friday and the application for an in
sanity examination was the final ef-
fort of the relatives to save the man
from a life sentence.
In giving his decision Judge Wilbur
stated that Hercules was already con-
victed of the charge of murder and
had been discharged from an asylum
but a few months ago and therefore no
further action could be taken.

INJURED MAN SUES HIS
EMPLOYERS FOR DAMAGES
Alleges He Was Made Drunk BY Claim
Agent and Induced to Sign
Release


Suit for $3O95O damages was filed
yesterday by r. M. Davis in the su-
perior court against the Pacific Elec-
trio company and because the plain
tiff is an employe of that road and al
leges many things against the COM
pany the suit promises to be most in
teresting.
The accident In which Davis was in
jured occurred on the Long Beach line
at Ninth and San Pedro streets May
2, 1904. Davis, who was an employe
of the company at that time, boarded
the car at Thirty-eighth street and be-
cause of it's crowded condition took a
position on the front platform.
At Ninth and San Pedro streets the
car struck a truck wagon and Davis
was thrown through the front glass,
alighting on his head on the rear
wheel Of the wagon.
In his complaint Davis alleges he re-
ceived no attention at the receiving
hospital and when removed to the Sis
ters' hospital was allowed to remain
there twenty-four hours without med
ical attention.
Davis further alleges that Claim Ad-
juster Fowler asked him to sign a
certificate of release as he was an en-
ploye of the road. He refused but
says Fowler later bought him drinks
until he was intoxicated and persuaded
him to sign the release for a consider
alton of $3.50. He asks the sum OF
$40, $50 for his injuries and expenses.
Claim Adjuster Fowler denies Davis
allegations.

RAILWAYS FEEL EFFECT
OF YELLOW FEVER SCARE
Tourists Refuse to Start East In the
Direction of New Orleans Be-
cause of PestlIence


Illustrative of the fear in which the
yellow fever pestilence is held by the
tourists is the following incident which
took place in one Of the local railroad
ticket offices yesterday.
An Angeleno expressed his desire to
go east and, after asking for the short
est route, was directed to go by way of
Ell Paso.
"But will not go by way of Ell
Paso," replied the prospective traveller.
''Why not?" he was asked. "Too near
the fever" came the reply. Then the
agent took out his guide and showed
the Angeleno that Ell Paso was over
HOO miles distant from New Orleans,
at present the locality in which the
contagion is confined.
"Well, I am not going by the south
ern route" said the Angeleno in deci-
sive terms, and from the last report he
did not.
Local lines having an entrance into
New Orleans are doing little or no pas
senger business so far as the south is
concerned. All who desire to go to
points in Louisiana are at liberty to do
so. No one wishes to go. Those who
would leave the district are many, but
the quarantine laws prevent.
In number Of instances Angelenos
have made applications for tickets by
which their friends and relatives
might be able to come to the Pacific
coast, but the railroad offices of Lou
isiana have refused to accept the requi-
sitions made upon them by the Los
Angeles agents.

THEIR LAST, GAME.
Boys Ready to Play FIX
cursion will be Large
Band is Going.

All arrangements are complete
for the excursion to Portland tomor
row for the last game of football of
the season. The excursion train
will arrive from Portland this ev-
ening, and will be ready for the
start at seven o'clock in the morn
ing. It will carry the. football
team and trainers and the cadet
regiment band of 80 pieces. A large
number of students have purchased
tickets, and will follow the team to
its final battle of the year. A
large number of townspeople are
going, some have already gone
with the expectation Of being at the
game. It Is also the understand
ing that people from Philomath and
from neighboring farms will join
in the excursion. Thirty or more
people are expected from Independ.
ence, and a good delegation from
McMinnville. Indications are good
for a better excursion than went to
Portland last Christmas on a similar
GRAND.
Last night, the boys had their
last practice for the year. 1t is the
last time that some of them will
ever engage together i a football
practice, and tomorrow's game will
certainly be the last in which they
will all play together. Three of
the team are post graduates, and
two or three others graduate this
year. They have played a long
time for OAC, and there will be a
vein of sentiment both for players
and their admirers in tomorrow's
game. This with the fact that the
game, if it can be converted into
an OAC victory, will give Steckle's
men higher standing than was ever
attained by a Northwest team,
makes extreme interest in the ex-
cursion and the things that go with
it.
The members of the team are
ready for the fray. Kenneth
Cooper, after breaking all records
as a goal kicker, and playing a
magnificent game all the year, will
not be in the lineup. Aside from
that, the team is stronger and ready
for a fight that will be a sight to
see.
The excursion rate for the round
trip is S., which it rate so low
that it was never given but twice
before, and SO low that it is cheap
er to go than to stay at home.
