FORCE CASES
PAST SUMMER
Judge ,Trask's Decision in San Ber-
nardino Case Postpones Court and
Other Public Machinery
Indefinitely

With the decision handed down by
Judge Trask late Saturday afternoon
In which he denied writ of habeas
corpus in a San Bernardino criminal
case, the last attempt to outwit the
strict observance of the legal holidays
was frustrated, and during the next
week there will be no court proceed
ings of any kind.
From the enforced holidays the courts
have become SO congested with the de-
layed cases that it will probably be
Tar into the summer vacations before
the regular calendar can be observed.
In the meantime the holidays in
many cases have had a Soothing effect.
In scores of petty business quarrels
where, rather than admit a point in
money argument, one merchant had
gone to legal war with his neighbors,
the cases have been discontinued and
will be dismissed as soon as the hol-
idays close, while the warning parties
have already settled their disputes.
Jail Inmates Suffer
In the criminal cases the holidays
have been particularly hard because of
the fact that many inmates of the
county Jail charged with misdemeanor
charges have been compelled to serve
longer sentences awaiting trial than
their cases would have ordinarily
called for, and then they have to face
trial after the holidays are over.
Since Mrs. Alberta Dabney Storrs,
who is charged with the murder of
her husband, Rowland .Storrs, was re-
leased on bail, her attorneys have
made no effort to have the case dis
missed on habeas corpus proceedings.
UP until the time of her arraignment
every effort was made to carry the
case to the appellate court, but fail
ure resulted and the district attorney
finally consented to arraignment.
Mrs. Storrs' examination will be held
before a Monrovia magistrate as soon
as the holidays are over and she ex-
poets then to entirely prove her inno-
cence and have the complaint against
her dismissed.
Divorce Cases Go Ahead
The divorce cases have been the only
suits to go merrily on as though moth
ing had happened.
No trials could be held nor final de-
crees given, but the suits have been
filed at a startling rate.
In the marriage license department
there has been rare rush of business,
and the licenses issued so far this year
exceed the number at this time last
year by several hundred. Scores of
licenses have been taken out during
the past few weeks by young men and
women from San Francisco, who have
decided to marry in haste.
The sheriff is at present feeding
scores of prisoners on the proverbia i
eight-cent meals, and until the close OF
the holidays brings relief the Jail will
be crowded to its utmost capacity.
AS for the supervisors, they are
Struggling their shoulders, and anyone
who demands that a bill be paid is
taken out in the corridor of the court
house building and shown the number
above the supervisors door, 1t is
twenty-three

REDMOND s WORK
CHARMS THE EYE
NINETEEN PAINTINGS HAVE
T0NAL QUALITY
Painter Uses Unhesitstlns Stroke,
Delicate colorlng, and His Work
Invites Imagination 70 Excur-
slons Into Pleasant Realms
BY Alma May Cook

The latest art exhibition to claim the
attention Of the public is that Of Gram
Vile Redmond at Steckles gallery.
This charming little gallery has held
many fine paintings this season, but
none of more interest than now adorn
its walls
Although somewhat late in the sea-
son and with several other notable ex-
hihitions on, Mr.. Redmond is attract
ing a large amount of attention from
artists and lovers of the beautiful.
Mr.. Redmond is showing nineteen
paintings, all of which have remark
able tonal quality, while differing
greatly in subject and technique MIR.
Redmonds work has drawing. The
lines and masses are intimately true
to nature and the parts are in right
relation to each other. The paintings
have technique and the handling is of
firm and unhesitating stroke and the
coloring delicate, showing the true and
practiced hand.

Los Angeles herald., 1906-05-21
Spiritual Quality

Beyond these there is a certain spir-
itual quality which is the very raison
d'etre of art.
While using a low toned palette,
Mr.. Redmond combines a beautiful
harmony of cool tones, yet teeming
with a subdued warmth and the bright
ness of sunshine effects.
In "L'arrlvee du pecheur, Catalina
Island" Mr. Redmond has caught the
feeling of the ever restless sea in
quiet mood. The coloring of this paint
ing is beautifully vivid, but with all
the peaceful tonal quality which marks
his works, This picture has that in
describable something which while 1t
may not be apparent at the first glance,
draws one back to this picture time and
again. 1t has that poetical. mysterious
something-it is not all told at the first
glance. 1t invites the Imagination to
excursions into the realms of pleasant
possibilities.
Los Angeles herald., 1906-05-21

Ruskin once said: 1.-THE greatest
picture is that which conveys to the
mind of the spectator the greatest
number of the greatest IDEAS
The fruit boat, which makes the
daily trip to Catalina, is the motif of
the painting, around which ocean, sea
gulls, rocks, sky and mountain outline
are woven into a symphony swelling
into a crescendo in the beautifully
toned sail of the boat.
Les Mysterieux'' has the sweet
glamour of noon sunlight and shade
on mountain and sea, while in Morn
ing in the Arroyo Seco" the warm, del
icate tints of early morning are shown
on the mountain, while the foreground
has not yet been touched by Apollo
searching rays.
TWO Epics
In storm and "The Wind" Mr.
Redmond has two epics. storm as
it's name indicates, shows nature in an
unquet mood, but in the background
there is bit of valley wherein the
storm does not rage, as the promised
land to life's weary pilgrims. This
forms a charming contrast with the
gusts of wind which one instinctively
feels in the foreground. THE Wind
is appealing in it's lonesomeness and
wind tossed trees. Mr.. Redmonds
March is a poem of nature.
If painting be a language, then no
longer is this talented artist afflicted
with the loss of speech, but has a cul-
tured voice and an easy command of
words. Men paint much as they talk,
and this artist, who puts his very soul
into his work, gives us idylls of nature.
The exhibition will be open to the
public daily until May 81

ILLEGAL FENCING
WARFARE BEGINS
United States Files Suits in
South Dakota Against
Parties.
A WHOLESALE ROBBERY
:harses of Appropriation of Public
Land by Fraudulent Methods Are
Made Against Stockmen in
Western Part of State.

Sioux Falls, S. D., Jan. ga war
fare against stockmen and others who
during the past few years are alleged
TO have secured vast tracts of govern
mcnt land in western South Dakota by
fraudulent means, has been begun by
the United States authorities of South
Dakota
The methods employed in the al
legged wholesale grabbing of the public
domain are said to be inila to those
employed by ranchmen in western Ne
braska. AS the opening chapter in the
litigation the United States authori-
ties in this city ave instituted civil
actions against several persons with
the object of having the federal courts
cancel the patents that were sue
by the government III cases where
fraud is alleged to have been used in
securing the land. one of the cases is
entitled the United States VS.. Ella
Henry and Carl Petan; another is en-
titled the United States VS.. Emma NJ.
Prefer and Carl Pctan, and the de-
PENDANT in another case is John l..
Henry. Petan is n of the most
! Dakota.
1t is alleged that Petan has enclosed
an aggregate of 1000 acres with u
fence. The government expects to
show that he nduced a Miss Henry and
q Miss Prefer to make homestead en-
tries on tracts OIL lou acres eacn, anu
that when they made final proof he
paid them i'll the neighborhood of $3.50
each as an inducement for them to
transfer the hornestcads to him. The
land entered by h young women is
said to be situated within the 1000
acre tract fence by him. The action
against Ryan is on somewhat similar
grounds.
The beginning of these actions Is
due to the fact tina the extension OF
the Milwaukee railroad from Chamber
lain to the Black Hills in western South
Dakota has caused farm land to be-
come much more valuable. There has
been a steady influx of new settlers
to that region since last spring, and as
government land is becoming scarce
the intending homeSteaders have taken
pains to look up the records and ascer-
tain by what right several stockmen
have fenced in large tracts.

Newspapers off china.

Archibald r.. Colquhoun. contribute
to the January number of the North
American Review an interesting and in
forming article on 1.-The Chinese Press
of Today" Picking is the home of the
Oldest newspaper in the world, the
Picking Gazette; and. long before the
modern newspaper made its appearance
in China, there was an extensive use
of placards and broad sheets. which,
though they often contained criticisms
of the government. were not censored,
and indeed there are no press laws in
existence in h Middle Kingdom today.
The first modern newspaper was pub
lished in China in 1870. but the growth
or the Chinese press was slow until
after h Boxer rising. Now Peking
has three daily papers and two fort
nightly ones; Tientsin has three dailies;
Shanghai has sixteen daily papers;
Foochow, Eoochow and Canton be-
tween them ave some six or seven
dailies, while there are five at Hong
Kong and one at Kiaochow. Besides,
several papers are now published in the
interior. In all these. there are, as in
American and English papers, leaders
and leaderettes, news items, kilograms.

mistakes. The acknowledgements is
made to a Western Friend and the
leading papers have a foreigner to adj

more advanced statesmen have men to
translate direct to them, as had Lii
Hung Chang. Advertisements in the
more popular papers are as much in
evidence as in u own papers. and
war news is given prominence. This is
Il modern development, for at the time
OF the Chino-JapaneSe war the defeats

but the n~iceties of style are such that

does not imply that the Japanese press
man is well paid. any more than his
Chinese brother, for the maximum sal
airy of the former rarely exceeds E10O a
year, and is oftener between ESQ and

the poison spreads, affecting other joints

for about three years from rheumatism
