SETS DATE FOR
THE EXECUTION
MORRIS BUCK TO BE HANGED
JUNE |
Murderer of Mrs. Garfield Grows
Strong and Healthy on Prison
Fare-Is Taken to San
Quentin

Morris Buck, the convicted murderer
of Mrs. Cloe Garfield left Los Angeles
late yesterday afternoon for his last
trip to San Quentin prison. BY an
order of Judge Smith in department L
of the superior court yesterday morn
ing Buck will be hanged on June l,
between the hours of 10 and 4 o'clock,
and his immediate removal to San
Quentin was considered advisable.
Buck will not be informed of the date
OF his execution until the morning be-
fore the event takes place, but in the
meantime it is thought that he will
learn the date through his guards.
When Buck was told to prepare for
departure yesterday he was lying on
his cot wrapped in blankets so that
only his frowsy hair could be seen with
out tine covers.
He paid little attention to the pro-
ceedings, walked sleepily to his bath
and then sat on the edge of his cot
while the Jail attendants dressed him
for his last journey. He was dressed
his trial.
Thrives on Prison Fare
Since Bucks incarceration in the
county Jail he has gained twenty
pounds. Following the murder he was
nervous and a physical wreck and was
hardly able to control himself. His
complexion was sallow and the skin
stretched over his skull like parch-
ment.
The sheriff's food, however. has
worked wonders with Buck, and when
he departed yesterday his cheeks were
red with health and his eye bright. He
paid no attention to his guards and
marched down the Jail steps as though
anxious to be away.
Outside a big crowd had collected to
watch the antics of a crazy man who
was being detained in the Jail base
ment until an officer was ready to take
him to the asylum. When 1t was
rumored that Buck was about to depart
there was a general dash toward the
carriage and deputy sheriffs were COM
PEELED to force their way to the vehicle.
Sheriff White had personal charge of
Buck with one deputy along in case
of need.
The condemned man was handcuffed
to Harold Hansborough, a negro under
one years sentence. At the station the
party was joined by constable of
Pomona who had j. w. Kefford, five
year term man, under his care. The
three prisoners will be entered at San
Quentin this morning.

it will be many a week before the pa
irons of the Orpheum will have an op-
portunity of listening to a monoluguist
such as Wilder.
Miss Lillian Burkhart presented a.
pretty little one-act playlet entitled
"Jessie's Jack and Jerry" Her appear
ance was the signal for an ovation
and several magnificent bouquets were
given to the comedienne.
The posing dog was again feature.
Thomas J. Keogh and company gave
a one-act play called THE Way He
Won Her." The company consisted
of one of the prettiest girls who has
appeared on the Orpheum stage in some
time. The play dealt with the method
used by newspaper reporter in at
tanning his object. Clever character
work was done by Keogh and the girl
was charming.
Four distinct characters were shown
by Keogh-a reporter, a tottering old
man "a German music teacher a la
Barney Barnard and a politician. The
voice of the actor was as husky as
that of a ward worker and the re-
mainder of the act was good.
An eXemplification of life among the
lowly was presented by William j.
Sullivan and Clarice Pasquelena, who
had a tough act that won Immediately

which the girl was very ready with
was cute"
Watson and Morris. novelty singers
and dancers, were the first number

NOVELTY PATRONS
LEARN MUCH OF
OCCULT PHENOMENA

The Novelty theater, since going back
to vaudeville, is enjoying an excellent
run of trade.
The opening feature of last nights
program at the Novelty was Violette
and Old in an exhibition of occult phe-
nomena, psychic demonstrations, men
tai telepathy, thought transmission
and mind reading, very clever duo,
who bewildered the audience.
Fred Lancaster introduced a number
of new songs and William Cross, sing
ing and dancing comedian, proved to
be a unique entertainer. One of the
acts Is that of Perez and King in
statuary work and plastique poses. The
performance closes with the Maltese
company in its latest farce comedy en-
titled "In the Zulu Chief" Motion pic
lures completed the performance The
Novelty is to be congratulated upon
this weeks program.

that none of them are to be compared

Councilman Harmon of that ward
who has been investigating petitions

A SPLENDID ADDRESS TO
FINE AUDIENCE.
Beautiful Solos BY Talented Vo-
calist.

Rev. John II. Sampey, ID. d., de-
livered a splendid address, on Sun
day afternoon, at the Opera House,
under the auspices of the Y. NJ.
&. A.
There was fine audience of men
present to listen to the address.
DR.. Sampey took for his theme
"The Formation of Good Habits. y
His address was one of great force
and power, and was happily illus
trated. He held the closest atten-
ton Of the audience from start to
finish, and there were universal
expressions of hearty approval from
every one present.
The central idea was, not to
worry about bad habits, but that
the formation of good habits would,
of necessity, destroy the bad.
He advocated wholesome and
hearty life for all men, both bodily
and spiritually, and urged the
formation of tle habit of convers-
ing quietly and conscientiOusly
with ones self and with God each
day of life, assuring his audience
of the benefits accruing in every
way.
1t was just such an address as
was to be expected from this able
earnest and hearty man, who car
ries with him everywhere the at
mosphere of JOY in life and an alb
sence of the fear of death and the
judgment.
a large measure of attractiveness
was added to the occasion by the
singing of IA male seXtet, but es-
pecially by the singing of two
beautiful solos by Miss WadswOrth,
OF Maysville, who is n cultivated
and accomplished vocalist.
Taken from AL points of view
this was one of the best Sunday
afternoon meetings yet held at the
Opera House.

CONSUMpTION'S WARNING

QThe aid Of scientific inventions is not
needed TO determine whether Your lungs
are affected. The first symptoms can be
readily noted by anyone OF average in
telligenCe.
QThere is no disease known that gives so
many plain warnings Of its approach as
consumption, and no serious disease that
can be so quickly reached and checked,
if the medicine used is Or. Boschee's
German Syrup, winch is made to cure
consumption.
Git is in the early stages that German
Syrup should be taken, when warnings
are given in the cots,h that won't quit,
the congestion of the bronchial cubes and
the gradual weakening of the lungs, ac-
conpanied by frequent eXpectoration.
GBut 10 matter how deep-Seated your
cough, even if dread consumption has
already attacked your lungs, German
Syrup will surely effect a cure-as it has

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AFTER
The House Completes Business Begun
 in the Forty seventh.

Washington. D. C.. May 1S.-Remi- nescent of the days of the FOrty-sev enth congress-were the scenes in and about the house today. Hardly had the journal of the house been approved when the democrats under the leader ship of MT. Williams of Mississippi. be- gan the first real flibuster in that body in a number of years, their object be- ing to defeat the bill paying to the es- tate of Samuel Lee of South Carolina S10,4S2 for allowances, made by reason of the election of Lee, a negro con testant for a seat in the Forty seventh congress.
 This bill has been reported favorably publicans and three times by demo- crats. The certificate of election which Lee contested, was given to John s. Richardson. The committee on elections reported in favor of Lee.
 A vote was taken on the resolution to give him the seat held by Richard son, PA voting in favor of the resOlu- tion, IA against Lees contest pro- gressed no further. The democrats be- gan a noted filibuster. and the Forty seventh congress died by operation of law without a quorum being present.
 Today's flibuster followed along similar lines, MT. Williams resorting to every known parliamentary tactic to encompass the defeat of the measure There were numberless roll calls and still more divisions demanded and taken, but the bill was finally passed.

The Easy Passage of the Railroad Rate
 Regulation Bill
Only Three Votes Were Cast Against It, One Republican and Two Democratc-A Single Unimportant Change Was Effected at the Last Moment.

Washington, D. C., May 1S.-After seventy days of almost continuous de- liberation the senate today at 4:53 p. m. passed the railroad rate bill by the practically unanimous vote of T to g.. The three negative votes were cast by Senators Foraker, republican, of Ohio, and Morgan and Pettus, democrats. of Alabama. There was somewhat larg- CT attendance of senators than usual and there was no manifestation of any kind when the result was announced.
 There was, however, an almost gen. eraI sigh of relief among the senators. The bill has received more attention from the senate and from the country at large than any measure that has been before congress since the repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sher- man act in 1893. It was reported to the senate on February 26, and was made unfinished business on March F. From March 12 to May the bill was under general discussion without limitation on the duration of speeches, fifty-eight of which were delivered. Many of these were prepared with great care, and two of them consumed more than a day time in delivery. Senator LaFollette, junior senator from Wisconsin, spoke for three days, and Senator Daniel of Virginia for two days. Senators Bailey, Foraker. Lodge. Rayner, Deliver and others each spoke for an entire day.
 For twelve days the bill has been un- der consideration under a rule limiting speeches to fifteen minutes each. The senate has at all times been earnest and animated but for the most part devoid of personality as between sen ators. the past few days, however, hay ing called out some caustic criticisms of the president and of some news paper correspondents by Senator Bailey.
 In addition to passing the bill, the proceedings today consisted of a con- cluding consideration of amendments, as such, and the delivery of a number of speeches on the bill The only
