Portrait of Gen. Robert
f. Lee.

The fact that too frequently it
transpires in American history that
no accurate and authentic portrait Of
her great men is faithfully preserved
has caused a number OF the devoted
admirers Of General Robert f. Lee to
interest themselves to cause a perfe ct
picture of the great General to be
made and to be preserved for all fu.
ture history. <as
This work, after a lapse of forty
years, is now under way by the John
A. Lowell Bank Note Company, of
Boston, who are using for this pur-
pose the exact photograph made at
General Lees residence in Richmond
few days after the surrender, which
picture has always been considered
by the Lee family and friends as the
most perfect likeness ever taken Of
the General at that period.
The work, when finished, will be OF
the highest art Of steel engraving, so
that IL will thus be preserved for all
future time.-Washington Post.

The October McClure's is devoted
peculiarly to Americal life and ac-
tivisies. Not story in it, nor a
special article, but concerns the real
and Immediate things that move
this country at large. Pastor Charles
Wagner, the French clergyman-au-
thor Of "The Simple Life," writes Of
his visit at the White House, and
with simple directness tells of the
children and the household life of the
President as he saw them. He writes
an interesting and important estimate e
of President Roosevelt as man.

Indicted for Using the Nails
tor Fraudulent Purposes.

Quite an unusual case occurred
here Tuesday when r. G.. Hill, a
cotton mill operative, was brought
before United States Commissioner
Butler and charged with using the
mails for fraudulent purposes.
1t seems that his clever scheme
was to defraud the Columbia Fish
and Ice Company of Columbia by
ordering fish sent to him by express
and by inducing his friends to do
likewise, telling them that there
would be no difficulty about dispos-
ing of them-then refusing to take
the fish sent from the express office,
claiming that they were spoiled.
In accordance with the usage in
such cases the fish would be sold to
defray express charges and then
Hill bought them at a greatly re-
duced price. This is claimed to be
a violation of the statute against
using the mails for fraudulent pur-
poses, for the orders were transmit
ted through, the mails.
AT the instigation of the Column
bia Fish and Ice Company the war
rant was sworn out against Hill and
at the completion of the hearing he
was bound over to appear at the
United States Court which meets in
Grcenville this month,

share in the murder of Policeman Rob-

of Yolo County. He was to-day SEN
fenced to serve forty-five years in Fol-

the town of Dunnigan in this county
last January. He left the courtroom
smiling, for he had, in view of the
fact that he had pleaded guilty and
admitted a prior conviction in Iowa,
expected the limit of the law. a life

Kennedy's three companions in the
Dunnigan crime all pleaded guilty and
received heavy sentences. When his
case was called to-day Kennedy re-
fused to avail himself of the usual
privileges allowed defendants He
would not take the stand in his own
behalf or allow his attorney to offer

When the verdict was announced
Kennedy waived time and asked for
sentence Immediately. He got it-for-

one of the shortest criminal cases on
record. 1t occupied but half day.
Kennedy's share of the Dunnigan
booty amounted to $40 80 and a dozen

SACRAMENTO, March 21-Twenty-
four young and pretty. members of
Califia Parlor, Native Daughters of
the Golden West, dressed themselves in
male attire last night and gave a min
strel performance to an audience COM
posed exclusively of women Of whom
nearly 400 were present. No men or
representatives of the press were per-
mitted to enter the hall and every ef-
fort at privacy was made, but the To-
cal hits and specialties of the winsome
young performers were so clever that
the details of the performance became
the subject of general discussion to-
day
The Native Daughters took the
names of well-known Native Sons, and
the jokes each was made to suffer
were comical in the extreme The
young women. who comprise many of
the prettiest girls in Sacramento, were
attired in mems full evening dress,
tuxedo coats, expansive shirt fronts,
trousers and all. Four particularly
dainty maidens, SO arrayed, acted as
ushers, but the hall was not large
enough to accommodate the women
who fiocked thither.
The most dignifled citizens of the
town were made the target of jibes so
caustic that many of them never would
have been uttered in mixed audience,
but the members of Califia Parlor
deemed themselves safe in a house
made UP entirely of their own sex
