Testimony Puzzles Them and They
Depart Unenlightened.

The struggle for the Dunsmuir mill
liens is still occupying the attention of
Commissioner Bennett at the British
the only witness again at both sessions
yesterday
He went on in the same line of tes-
timony as ON the two preceding days.
Yesterday was his third day as a wit
ness.
Attorney S. Wheeler continued the
examination. <All his interrogations
were based on lines to prove what the
law Is in California in reference to the
execution of wills and the conclusive
ness of probate DEGREES.
Expert Dwyer has SO far cited over
so cases relating to probate procedure.
and he is not through yet. 1t had
been expected that Attorney Wheeler
would finish his examination of the
witness yesterday, but at 4:45 D. m. he
was still going on with his questions,
SO Consul Bennett adjourned the court
until this morning at 1890. Immedi-
ately following the direct examination
to-day the attorneys for the plaintiff
will take up the cross examination.
Edna Wallace Hopper was not pres
ent at either of the sessions yester-
day.
Late yesterday afternoon three men
presented themselves at the Consulate
and said they had been friends OF
James Dunsmuir and they wanted TO
hear the case" They were admitted.
The small room was already filled with
those Immediately interested in the
case, SO the three visitors held up the
side walls for a while. The method
of procedure was evidently not what
thew had expected After listening To
the citations of Expert Dwyer for a
few minutes they turned to each other
and asked, Whats 1t all about any
way?" AS no light was thrown on the
subject, they slowly filed out Of court
and are probably still wondering.

Twenty Los Angeles Maidens Give Up
Christianity.
Los Angeles, Oct. 19.-Twenty Los
Angeles girls were to be initiated into
Buddhist faith Friday evening by
means of impressive ceremonies.
These twenty young women, it is said,
are the first who ever have attained to
a degree of knowledge in the teach
ings of Buddhism sufficient to entitle
them to full enrolment as members of
the faith. The class has been studying
under Swami Margarinanda, one of the
most eloquent of the band of Budd-
hist missionaries sent to this country
to work among Christians.
Swami Margarinanda has made ar
rangements for the ceremonies to take
place at Sawtelle. A special car will
leave the city and convey the converts
and their friends. After an oriental
ceremony, in which the young women
will be solemnly accepted as Buddhist
initiates, Swami will make an address.
The converts are said to belong to fam
lilies of undoubted social position and
OF much influence in Los Angeles.

wound Armitage dropped his rife
and drew a pistol, and selling his vic
tim with one hand, held the revolver

trail of blood, which marked his way
to his own house, not over 100 feet
