The Nebraska legislature has Passed
a bill known as can act to prevent
the dissertation of Memorial day with
sports, including base ball and horse
racing. 1t is a good bill, and the GRA-
PHO has long been OF the opinion that
a similar measure should be placed in
the statutes of every state. Memorial
day was never intended for a second
Fourth of July. but unless something
is done about pretty Soon that is what
it will degenerate to. 1t should be a
day of memories, not of celebration.
AS such, every true American should
respect it and its intentions-and if
he won't respect it the stars and stripes
ought to force HIM to. AS Il legal holt
day those engaged in sports and pas
times have caught on to the opportun-
ity to catch the idle multitude until
the custom has become almost univer-
sal and the real object OF the day lost
sight of. We do not suppose that any
law will make Il mar give thought to
the boys in blue who made the Union
possible, but a law can force HIM to
respect the feelings Of those who do.

viii Call to Get Revenue

The phone rang in the city attorneys
office yesterday and citizen anxiously
inquired If it was against the law to
work on Sunday in Los Angeles.
Are you a Chinaman?" queried the
dispenser Of legal lore.
Whats that? Am I a monkey, did
you say? Well, look here young feller,
you are fresh. You have plenty of
nerve when you talk over wire, but I
am coming down there to give you a
chance TO say it to me face, and then
you had better be keerful or you'll
lose a lamp" roared the voice at the
other end of the wire, and before the
attorney could explain that the Sunday
law in the city prevented only Chinese
laundries from running on that day
the phone slammed up. All day the at
torney's office was barricaded, but the
lamp smasher never showed up.

IS ENDED
NIEMEYER ESTATE INVOLVED
Title to Los Angeles Real Estate Is
Vested In Widow Instead of
Children of Frank
Niemeyer

BY a decree Of the superior court,
handed down by Judge Bordwell yes
terday. the legal difficulties of the De-
laney and Niemeyer families of Central
avenue have been brought to a close
and the defendant, the aged mother of
the plaintiff. has triumphed.
Suit after suit and contest after con-
test has been the history of the fight
of the Niemeyer children against their
mother, for a share in property which,
at one time, was purchased for a song,
but which is now worth many thous-
and dollars.
The complaint filed by Mrs. o. De-
laney and Frank Delaney, her husband,
against Mrs. Mary A. Niemeyer, mother
of the plaintiff alleges that the first
husband of Mrs. Niemeyer John
Schmees, died in 1861. leaving some
small estate and several children. The
mother was appointed executrix of the
estate, but in 1866 is alleged to have
married Niemeyer and to have Joined
all her property with his for their mu-
tual benefit and for the benefit of the
-Four children resulted from the sec
ond marriage. Niemeyer came to Los
Angeles in 1873 with $500 and bought
ten acres of land on Central avenue
near Ninth street. In 1891 NiemeyeI
died and the wife was again appointed
administrator. The daughter contested
the statement of the mother that the
property was community between Me
meyer and his wife and the mother is
alleged to have declared the property
was homestead.
The children Of Niemeyer objected
and a settlement was later made
whereby Mrs. Niemeyer took one third
of the estate and gave the other two
thirds to the children of Niemeyer
-Four lots were given to Mrs. Delaney
and she resided on what she though
was her property for seven years.
A short time ago she demanded |

MORE GOLD AND SILVER
An Increase of the Output of Precious
Metals for the Year 1904.

Washington, Nov. 20.-A report issued
by the geological surveys says:
The production of gold in the United
States during 1904 amounted to 3.y10 729
resents an increase of 1928 94S over the
production of 1903. The largest previous
output, in 1902 amounted to $50, 900 900.
The production of silver in 1904 amount
ed to 55 999, S64 fine ounces, valued at $32,-
O553lS- This represents an increase Of
1853. S64 ounces over the production of 1903
and an increase in value of s., 713,37S The
record output of silver in 1892, amounting
to 63,500,000 fine ounces, the report says,
has not been reached in late years, nor
has the commercial value attained the
figures of that year, which amounted to
$50. .101, 900.
The principal sources of increase in the
gold production compared with that of
1903. the report says, are easily traceable
Colorado added nearly 81. 600, 600 to her
production Of 1903, NEST of this amount
coming from the mines of Cripple Creek.
Nevada's output increased about the
same amount, chiefly by reason of the
phenomenal yields of the Gold6eld mines.
The greatest progress is reported in
California, whose production exceeds that
of 1903 by 50 800, 900, the increase being
the quartz mining industry and to a less
degree by the activity of the dredgers.
Alaska and Arizona show increased
Yields amounting respectively to S476 983
smaller increases, while Utah. Montana
and Washington have less gold to their
credit in 1903 than in 1903.
The increase of value in the production
of silver of S2,713,37S is somewhat evenly
distributed among the various states and
territories, but is to some extent due to
the better price of silver obtained
Colorado leads with an increase OF $780,
520. California, Idaho, Montana. Nevada.
and Utah also added considerable value
