ASK HIS WIFE.

John Burns, x-workingman, now
cabinet minister, once contended pub
licly that no mans work is worth more
than $500 a year But John Burns has
had to take good deal of rallying
STAGE he has accepted an office which
pays $4,000. In Battersea, during the
recent election, he had to endure some
ood-humored heckling by his consti-
tuents on this subject He answered
that he was, at any rate, receiving on
iy the prevailing rate OF wages i'm his
new trade. When one courageous wo-
man in his audience rose to put the
pointed inquiry, but what do you do
with the money, John?' his reply was,
Go ask the missus"

A Subway Vis-a-Vis.

The fragrance Of violets came down
the aisle; a tan raincoat brushed
against a newspaper, a pair of dainty
russell shoes stepped in front of the
seated gentleman; a glimpse Of laven-
der openwork Isle thread was visible
between the low shoes and the long
coat; a daintily gloved hand drew an
occasional chocolate bon-bon from a
box of sweets; the seated ones eyes
involuntarily raised themselves from
the newspaper, loitered on the exquis,
lite lavender four-in-hand and pearl
stickpin, the dainty pink chin and
finely cut mouth, the rosy cheeks, the
soft blue eyes shyly looking forth
through rimless glasses-and rested at
last on the immaculate brown derby
hat of a young man.

Queer shape Of a Dog for Which Po-
lice Are Asked to Search.
Miss Marie B. Potter, the fourteen
year-old daughter of E. G. Potter, a
broker at sc Wall street, who lives at
the Country club, Throggs Neck, has
enlisted the police of the Westminster
station, from Captain Gray down to
the doorman, in ner search for her
dachshund puppy Peanut, who has
been missing since Saturday. She
calls him Peanut because OF his shape.
He isn't Of particularly high pedigree,
but Miss Potter says his character and
general excellence as a dog more than
make up for his lack Of absolutely
blue blood.
After posting notices, offering IS re-
ward and no questions asked, and
hearing nothing from her d og, she
asked Captain Gray to send out an
alarm for him. The captain has told
every mar in the precinct to keep an
eye out for Peanut.

News of Various Mining Camps
in the State of Nevada

TONOPAH. Sept. 24.-Malcolm Mac
donald and L. A. Parkhurst, who have
been on tour of inspection of their
many properties at the Wonder Cop
per Camp at Green Water, left there
TINS afternoon for the famous Mont
gomery Shoshone mine at Beatty to
arrange for the shipment of ore that is
TO be taken out as soon as the railroad
enters Beatty.
1t is particularly gratifying to the
many friends of Mr.. Macdonald to learn
that the shipment that is to be made
will in every way justify the faith
that he had in the mine during the
time that it needed friends and as a
man in town today expressed it, Mac
donald has not only wonderful Judg
ment as to the merits of mining prop
critics, but he also sticks to his
friends"
Bob Montgomery, the discoverer of
the mine, and other prominent officials
OF the Montgomery -Shoshone Mining
Company, are to be present the day
that the ore is shipped, and the fact
that Mrs. Montgomery, accompanied by
number of her lady friends from San
Francisco and the East, will attend
insures that the shipment of this ex-
ceptionally rich ore will be an event
that will long be. remembered in the
history of Southern Nevada
1t is the first instance on record
where a mine has been formally chris
tened and by all rights Mrs. Montgom
cry is entitled to the honor.

Important Witness in Til
den Trial Fails to Identify
Defendants as the Slayers
TELLS OF SHOOTING

Without. embarrassment and in clear,
concise language R. G. Seaman, one of
the principal witnesses against George
Simmons and Malcolm Vance, who are
being tried before Judge Carroll Cook
for the murder of Heber c. Tliden
following the great fire, told the story
of the shooting, but in no way gave
damaging testimony against the ac-
cused.
The trial was resumed yesterday
morning, and Seaman, who is the prin-
cipal witness for the prosecution, told
the story of the hold-up of the Red
Cross automobile by volunteer patrol
men and the death of the doctor. but no
word of the witness connected them di-
rectly with the shooting. He was only
able to identify the defendants as the
men whom the police brought to him
handcuffed, but could not swear they
were in the party that fred upon the
speeding car.
Seaman accounted for his presence
on the machine by the order Of Ma
tional Guard lieutenant, who told him
to take charge of the car. At that time
he had volunteered for duty, although
previously discharged from the States
service He said that it was Til
den's auto and that the party was re-
turning from san Mateo.
OfEN FIRE ON Ik1E AOlOs
They approached Guerrero and Twen-
ty-second streets, the scene of the
shooting, a little after midnight Of
April 22 They had safely passed sew
erak challenging patrolmen by crying
Red Cross" When passing the fatal
corner six men in the roadway let the
machine go by and then opened fire.
One shot was high, but the others went
into the machine, and one struck the
witness on his belt in. the back.
My God. They've shot mel" cried
Tilden, and then the machine swerved.
In an instant the party in the machine
returned the fire, the witness firing five
shots He then tainted from the pain
of the impact of the bullet. When he
recovered he was told that Tilden
was dead The defendant, Edward S.
Boynton, who will have separate
trial. and Patrick Fitzgerald. a motor
man, who was a witness in the after
noon, were brought to him handcuff
Fitzgerald was later released.
DEATH QUICKLY ENSUED.
In the morning DIR. p M. williams,
who examined the body, testified that
death was due to snock. The wound
was clean cut. the bullet having en-
tered under the shoulder blade and
emerged through the chest. Death
quickly ensued.
Patrick j. Fitzgerald proved reluc-
tant witness for the people and was
dubbed an unwilling one by Hanley.
He failed to remember either converse
tions or statements of the accused ex-
cept that Simmons and Vance admitted
firing into the auto.
Policeman John B. McCue told of the
arrest of the party. after the shooting.
He said that there was opportunity for
the accused to have run away between
the time of the shooting and that of
his arrival.
In the courtroom alongside his son
sat L. w. Simmons, who watches every
move of the lawyers with anxiety. Near
him sat his son, Ralph W. Simmons, the
brother Of the accused boy. and with
him was Mrs. r. w. Simmons, the de-
PENDANTS pretty sister-in-Iaw.

Intention to Make Collec-
tions for a Public Museum

A special meeting of the Outdoor Art
League department Of the California
Club was held yesterday afternoon in
Calvary Church Annex for the purpose
Of considering the question brought up
AT the last meeting Of constituting
itself a committee for the collection Of
objects of art, TO be turned over later
TO some museum or art gallery when
such is established here. 1t is felt by
the members Of the league that so
much Of value in that line has been
destroyed here that a systematic effort
should be made to replace in a meas
ure what is gone.
Appeals are to be made both to local
and foreign sources for assistance.
Mrs. George 7. Marsh Will have
charge Of the japanese collections; Mrs.
A c. Girard is TO interview Deakin, the
artist, who has a large collection of
paintings of the Californian missions,

STABLE ORDINANCE
DECLARED VOID.

1t is not necessary for livery stable
keepers to secure the consent of prop
erty owners for 200 feet on each side
of proposed stable before building
permit for such a structure can be is
sued by the Board of Public Works.
and requirement to this effect con-
tanned in the building laws is invalid.
according to a decision rendered yes
terday by Judge Seawell in the case of
]. r. Coon against the Board of Public
Works
Coon is the owner of property in
the Mission district and he recently
made application for q building per-
nit for the erection of livery stable.
1t was refused under the provisions of
Section $40 of the building laws. which
require the consent of property own
suit against the board to force the
issuance of the permit, his suit being
a test case for number of other sim
liar actions which are now pending
His contention was that the refusal of
the board amounted to an abridgment
of his rights as a citizen
Judge Seaweil declared in his deci-
sion that the board has no right to
presuppose the purpose for which the
building is to be erected or to consider
1t a nuisance without definite cause.
and must. therefore, issue a permit if
the structure is to be erected in com
pliance with the building laws. The
remedy for adjoining property own
ers, he said, is to bring an action
against the owner of the stable for
maintaining nuisance il such is the
case after the building is put to use.
In part Judge SeaweH said:
THE charter nowhere vests in the
board of Public Works the power Of
determining who shall or shall not en-
gage in any business whatever. 1t pro-
vides that the board shall have, under
such ordinances as may be adopted by
the Board of Supervisors. the super
vision of any and all building construc-
tion in the city and county. But the
conduct of a building, when construct
ed, is no part Of its construction. Even
if it be conceded that the Board of Su-
pervisors might restrict the stable
business to specified district within
the city and county 1t cannot delegate
to private individuals the arbitrary
power to delegate such district"
