IMAGINARY TROUBLES
UPSET NERO HANT'S MIND
E. A. 5urnham, Los Angeles Hardware
Dealer, Jumps From Second
Story Window

Crazed from worrying over imagin-
airy troubles, e. A. Burnham, a Los
Angeles hardware dealer, yesterday
leaped from the second story of a
building at 5 Market street, San Fran
cisco, and escaped without a scratch.
Burnham had been in San Francisco
four days and made several complaints
TO the police, alleging his wife had
eloped with his brother.
Yesterday he created a scene by
jumping out Of the window into the
midst of crowd of pedestrians. He
was unhurt and Immediately told a
story OF his finding his alleged faith
less wife and brother i'm a room in the
house and Of being attacked by thugs
who were employed to protect the
runaway couple.
Burnham Is believed to be insane
by authorities at San Francisco and
will be held for medical treatment

BLOCKADE SIDEWALKS
Street Superntendent Hanley Threat
ems Vigorous Prosecution for
Disobedience of Order

There was a general disposition yes
terday upon the part of those con-
tractors who have been blocking the
streets and sidewalks where they have
construction work in operation to obey
the edict which has recently gone forth
from the office of the street depart
ment.
Yesterday was the last day of grace,
but the threat of Street Superintend
ent Hanley to put his strong arm into
action was not carried out. "The con-
tractors have signified their willing
ness to get off the earth and l antici-
pate no trouble whatever" he said.
Blocking the sidewalks and street S
is not necessary for the construction
of any building. 1t is just as easy to
put the material in the cellar and shoot
it up from there as it is from the street
and from now on my department will
see that such is done"

yet they did not stop at that.
When Mexico, after having paid an
annual sum of $4,000 to the Catholic
church of the CALIFORNIA; until that
sum had amounted to more than a mil
lion dollars, made the last payment be-
fore the treaty of The Hague and then
at that meeting demanded to know to
what end this money had been put,
and an entire accounting of the Plus
fund became necessary, the written
order of the pope of Rome, ordering
the money to be paid to the Aguirre
heirs because 1t was just debt was
brought forward as an explanation of
the whereabouts of the $4,000, but this
document and this only was produced,
and nothing at all was said of the pail
try and deceiving settlement made by
the priests with the Aguirre heirs, in
order that the large sum Of money
might be retained in their dioceses."
This was followed by an argument
by Attorney Gage in which he roundly
scored the action of the bishops IN
their attempt to take refuge behind the
statute of limitations, law which he
said is held in contempt by Catholics
in all parts of the world.
Further argument will be heard be-
fore the case is taken under submits

NORWEGIAN SUBJECTS
PETITION FOR REPUBLIC
Resolutions Adopted at Mass Meeting
Are UnfavorabIe to MonarchiaI
Form of Government

AS a result of a meeting held by
members of the Normanna, or Nor
wegian, club of Los Angeles Thurs
cay night resolutions expressive of the
patriotism of natives of that country
were drafted and sent to the far off
north yesterday, to add to the already
great cry for a republic, instead of a
monarchy, in their native country.
According to statements of the pat
riots all true Norwegians frown upon
the idea of a monarchy and demand a
republic. The drafting of resolutions
along this line was met with great
enthusiasm.
Following are the resolutions:
premier P. c. Nicholson, Chris
tiania, Norway:
AT a meeting of the Norwegians of
Los Angeles, Cal, August II, 1906, the
following resolution was adopted with
tremendous enthusiasm, which voices
the sentiments of the entire Norwegian
population of America.
1T is the hope and prayer that un-
der no conditions or circumstances will
a king be permitted to rule in Nor
way. We. as American citizens, real
ize the great advantages of a repub-
lican form of government. and can at
this great distance from home see the
greatest opportunity in the history Of
our mother country and we stand ready
with our lives, If necessary. to assist
cur brethren across the sea to declare
the absolute freedom of Norway and
elect a president. We Furthermore beg
and insist as a class that you initiate
the noble example set by this glorious
country of the Stars and Stripes"

INDUSTRIAL HOME
TO COST $4,000
SALVATION ARMY HAS A BIG
PROJECT UNDER WAY

departments Of Social
Reform Work
WILL ERECT NEW BUILDING

A great industrial home, costing
100000, is to be built for the Salvation
Army of Los Angeles. 1t is to stand
on San Pedro street Just south Of the
junction of Los Angeles and First
streets in a part Of the city where the
army has been doing effective social
work for some time. The building,
which is to be of brick, will have every
modern convenience and will, when
finished, be one of the finest of its
kind in the country.
The order from headquarters to be-
gin work on the new establishment
comes as the result of Commander Eva
Booths recent visit to the city.
The building will have a frontage of
120 feet, a depth of so feet, and will
be three stories in height. There will
be a basement the size of the entire
floor for the ware rooms, where the
cast off clothing and furniture collected
from residences will be overhauled and
repaired for sale. On the ground floor
will be an auditorium for religious
services, a meeting hall for the chill
dren's work, a furniture repair shop,
an industrial store and four store
rooms, which will be rented for mer-
camille purposes.
On the second floor half of the space
will be divided and made into an in
dustrial home for the accommodation
Of fifty men, those without employment
and means of support, who will be
taken care of until able to care for
themselves. The other half of this
floor will be used for workingmens
metropole, where free reading room,
free labor bureau and free baths will
be maintained, and there will be fifty
small single rooms, neatly furnished.
On the third floor will be large open
dormitory with fifty beds to be rented
in connection with the metropole.
Staff Captain E. w. Campbell, the
officer in charge of Salvation Army
social and industrial work in Los An
geles, has made many Improvements
in the local system since he was called
to the post six months ago, and this
big project is due largely to the success
he has had in carrying on this branch
of social reform.

Charges Of a character to turn the
complaint of the Aguirre heirs in their
fight for a share of the Plus fund into
one of the most serious scandals in the
history of the Catholic church were
made yesterday by Attorney w. 1.
Foley in Judge BordwelPs department
of the superior court, during hearing
of the arguments upon a demurrer
filed by Attorney McErney in behalf
of the bishops, defendants.
So serious were the charges made by
Attorney Foley against the actions of
Bishops Amat, Alemany and Mora that
a number of Catholics left the court
room.
When the second day of the hearing
of the demurrer to the cross COM
filed by the bishops was commenced,
more than 200 friends of both factions
were present to witness the pro-
ceedings.
Attorneys McErney- and Mcdonald,
the defendants, had al
ready placed their objections to the
complaint before the court and Attor
ney Foley started the argument for the
heirs.
Sensational Charges
I'VE will DEAL" said Foley, with
Bishops Amat, Alemany, Mora, O'Con-
nell and Riordan only. Bishops T. ].
Conaty and Thomas Grace are not to
be included in this argument, for they
are honest just and upright men and
are made parties to the suit only be-
cause the handling of portions of the
Plus fund has come down to them.
THE ground of fraud on the part of
the first named bishops is the ground
upon which we base our claim. The
actions of Bishops Alemany. Mora and
Amat when they made their settle
ment with the Aguirre heirs on Febru-
ary IS, 1880, was one of the rankest
frauds ever perpetrated in this coun
try To think of that widow and Of
the other heirs being led by those
priests to a place where all was quiet,
where the grand swindle could be ac
complished, is something to make
a mans blood boil.
when those bishops, when Bishops
Mora and Alemany took that heir in
charge and working upon him with all
care, they knew that every step they
were taking was one of fraud
''I have heard of steals perpetrated by
thugs, ingenious and artful. 1 have
heard of gold brick and shell games,
but have never in my life heard of any
steal that can equal this.

versal salvation 1 shall never meet these
men, but If these thugs, these gold

ers, these lottery sharks of whom I
have spoken, should ever meet these
most illustrious prelates of the church
in the celestial realms of another
world. they would Immediately join
and sing in the immortal chorus, All
Hail to the Chiefs!'
But the old swindle of the Sos when
Bishops Alemany and Amat. having at
that very time within the bosoms of
their garments the papal decree order
ing the payment of that just debt to
the heirs of Don Jose Antonio Aguirre,
cheated the heirs out of the money by
deception and trickery and paid only
$4,000 as settlement is not the only
portion of this monstrous and shameful
transaction.

whom the people of the Catholic
church believe the highest powers on

The Way Liquor Was Smuggled
Aboard One of Our Warships.


While on the China station in 1886
the master at arms mess on the Unit
ed States steamer Omaha was In a
drunken and demoralized condition for
several weeks. Try as he might the
captain could not discover where the
liquor was coming from. Finally all
shore liberty was stopped, but the
drunkenness did not cease. On the
morning of sailing while the executive
officer was near the port gangway
watching the taking in Of stores he
asked'what was in a large demijohn
that came over the side with boxes
and packages. He was told that 1t was
vinegar. He pulled the cork and sniff
ed it. 1t was vinegar. Then his at
tention was attracted by the tag
marked master at arms mess" and,
remarking that the mess must be u.s.
ing vinegar for bathing, as he had al
ready seen the same demijohn brought
aboard twice within that week, he or
dered the officer Of the deck to inspect
1t carefully and taste it. He did; 1t
was vinegar. That officer, however,
noticed that the jug had an unusually
long neck. He poured out small
quantity of vinegar and discovered an
extra cork in the bottom Of the neck.
Below that were three gallons Of gin.
The vinegar between the corks had
served to deceive the inspecting Of
