remarkable that the Democratic rally
here tonight 10 hear Thcdore A Bell
attracted only four or i've hundred
people 70 the Tabernacle. Moreover,
here at Long Beach the Republican
majority is strong, though there are
runaors Of discontent. The Venice con-
vcntien seems to be an oHense In the
eyes of some Republicans in Los Ange-
les County. san Pedro harbor is a
Democratic watchword that may prove
a winner. and illusions TO the Harri-
man steal OF the water fronteos that
port get a ready hearing The county
committee is making large claims OF
Republican defectious. but Il seems
that Bells fight here must be up hill
all the way He makes friends wher-
ever he goes. and even here at Long
Beach some Republicans who knew
him in Napa County are talking of or
ganizing Bell club.
Bell spent tho day IN making ths ac-
quaintance OF the business men OF Los
Angeles. going in the afternoon to the
electric road oeices where the men
We're being paid or. and shaking hands
with conductors and nlotormen from

place OF meeting
The hrst speaker of the evening was
Robert G. Loucks OF Pomona. the
Democratic candidate for Congress in
the Seventh District. He dweIt en-
tirely on the question of the harhor at
San Pedro and accused the incuu-
bent. who is his opponent. with being
implicated in the Southern Pacific grab
OF the land surrounding the water
front. which, he claimed, has made the
harbor virtually a private one. From
the applause he got one mi ght Judge
that his hearers agreed with him.
When Bell was introduced as the
next Governor OF California he re-
ceived a demonstration OF applause
that was kept up for several minutes.
IN his allusions to the Santa Cruz con-
vention tonight he declared himself in
favor OF the direct primary. saying the
State would never be freed from boss
rule and corrupt conventions till the
voice OF the people should be heard in
the choice Of their candidates at the
direct primaries. He made the state
ment that 50 per cent of the RepUbli-
can newspapers in the county towns
were supporting his candidacy.
At the close Of the meeting he was
given banquet by the Eagles.

Farmer Shoots Sister in Law.

Cincinnati, June 18.-William Hisey,
a farmer living near Aurora, Ind,
probably fatally shot his sister in law,
Mrs. Mary Hisey, wife of a prom
inent Cincinnati manufacturer, and Sc
verely wounded Herbert Craile, also
of Cincinnati, on his farm late Sun
day. Mrs. Hisey was summoned from
her summer home by a message stat
ing that one Of the children was ILL.,,
and not expected to live. She hur-
ried to the farm and is said to have
been attacked at once, William Hisey
and his family being alarmed. Hisey
stated after his arrest that he shot
Mrs. Hisey in self defense and de-
clared that she had drayn her revol-
yer before he fired. Herbert Craile
is the son in law of Mrs Hisey. Fam
lily differences of long standing are be-
lieyed to have led to the shooting.

avenge upon the assaulter. The rob-
Der was kicked and stoned and repeat

OLD ROMAN BATHS.
They Held Theaters, Temples, Feast
ing Halls and Libraries.


The ancient Romans were eXtraya-
gantly fond of bathing They got their
notions about the bath as a luxury
from the Greeks, and at one time there
were nearly 900 public bathing estab-
lishments in Rome, some of which were
the most beautiful and elaborate struc-
lures in the world
The baths of the Emperor Diocletian
covered more than half a square mile
and contained, besides immense basins
and thousands of marble recesses, the
aters, temples, halls for feasting, prom
enades planted with trees, Libraries,
schools for youth and academies for
the discussions of the learned The
bathers sat on marble benches below
the surface of the water, around the
edge of the basins, scraping them
selves with duh knives of metal and
ivory and taking occasional plunges in
to the water.
Dissipated Romans would spend
whole days in the bath, seeking relief
from overindulgence in eating and
drinking the night before. Everybody,
even the emperor, used these baths,
which were open to every one who
chose to pay the price of admission.
1t was not usual for the old Romans
to have baths in their houses, though
at a date 1000 years before that, or
$500 years ago, the noblemen OF an
cient Greece had their dwellings sup
piled with baths of terra Gotta.
