SOCIETY NOTES.

We were happy to spend an even
ing of last week with the celebrated
Madam Mehrtens who, with her
artistic touch, led US into the realms
Of higher thoughts and ideals.
Musicians are many, artists are few.
We listened to the artist The first
number on the program was Bee
thoven's Minuette. One could in
fancy see the graceful dance while
listening to its rhythmic music. Can
onza Neapolitana Tarantella was
given with all the artistic technique
and fire, eliciting a hearty encore.
Chopin Polonaises are called He
role Hymns of Battle. Schuman
says they are cannon buried in
flowers, which is a beautiful figure
regarding them; they have the
strength Of battle combined with
the delicacy Of thought which ac-
companies flowers. I'm the Polo
naise, a professional dance, one
could in fancy see the dancers pass
in review before the King and
Queen with the deep bow of the
gentleman and graceful courtesy Of
the lady. Among the lyric COM
positions for the piano by Greig,
the spring song must unquestion-
ably take rank as the best. The
opening notes Of the right hand ac-
compartment fell light and silvery
as the drops of an April shower.
The Hungarian Dance, by Brahms,
won rounds Of applause on the de
hghtful and exquisite execution. In
the Berceuse, or Cradle Song, by
Chopin, we have one Of the most
beautiful compositions in piano liter
allure. The left hand represents the
rocking Of the cradle, while the soft
melody in the right is maternal
love; in the lullaby the mother
sings as she sits in the hush of
twilight rocking the little one to
sleep. Rigoletto, composed by
Verdi in forty days, is considered
his masterpiece.
Mrs. EIbridge Smith was hostess
of a delightful euchre on Thursday
of last week, Mrs. Janin, Of New
Orleans, being the honoree. Seven.
hand euchre was the game played.

PLATT'S BIRTHDAY
RATHER NEGLECTED
For the First Time in Recent Years,
II Was Not Made a Political Event.

New York. July Ex-senator Platt
celebrated his 74th birthday at the
Oriental hotel, Manhattan Beach today
in accordance with his custom for a
number of years.
The only difference of the celebra-
ton this year compared with other
years. Law in the fact that the senator
was little more feeble physically and
there was not the usual gathering of
the leaders of the republican party Of
New York City and state. Heretofore.
the senator's birthday has been the
date of notable midsummer confer
ence of big and little republicans from
all over the state who came to town
only to congregate and discuss party
affairs with their leader whom they
called affectionateI "The Old Man" $
Asked If he had any intention of re-
signing from his senate set he said:
Not the slightest. I'm still a senator
and shall remain one until the end of
my term unless | should shuttle off
this mortal coil. which / don't expect

here until the end of the season"

A FURIOUS ACTIVITY
IN THE STOCK MARKET !
Result in Part of the Opinion of the
Commissioners Report on the Harri-
man Inquiry.

New York. July 15.-The volitile
upshoot of prices OF stocks and the
furious activity of trading the first
hour today gave the impression of a
violent speculative activity of stock
market revival such as had not been
seen for long time past The subsi-
dence of activity after that was so
abrupt as to be rather disconcerting
to the operators who attempted to fol-
low the movement. The animation of
the early dealings owed something to
the surprise of a short interest which
followed the abrupt relapse of the
middle last week. left uncovered. when
the favorable bank statement and the
opinion formed towards the Harri-
man report, carried prices upward and
alarmed the shorts.
The recommendations of the inter
state commerce commission accom-
panying the Hartman report. is re-
garded as an admission that small op-
portunity existed for making a case
against railroad combination under the
present laws. Soldering conditions
were brought forward again. OF these
the money market position was most
influential. In spite of t he weeks

A Second One Last Night Arrested On a
Charge of Perjury
Ii Was Proved by the State In Rebuttal That He Had
Lied About Circumstance of the Alleged Counter
Conspiracy

Boise. Idaho, July 15-Another war
rant charging perjury against a wit
ness who testified for the defense In
the case of Haywood was Issued this
evening. c. w. Aller. formerly
telegraph operator and ticket agent at
the depot of the Florence and Grip
pie Creek railway at Cripple Creek
@as charged with that offense by the
prosecuting attorney of Ada county
Aller was Immediately arrested and
held in $4,000 bond. Both Aller and
MCGEE. who was arrested on the same
charge. were given an opportunity to
furnish bonds and their preliminary
hearing will be set to take place with
in the next few days.
Eleven witnesses in rebuttal were
examined today in the Haywood trial.
Orchard reappeared on the stand and
was asked a few questions as to his
acquaintance with some of the wit
nesses for the defense who testified as
10 his movements. On being turned
over for cross examination he admit
ted that his uncle. Peter McKinny.
committed suicide by hanging. thirteen
or fourteen years ago. Counsel for
defense asked Orchard If his uncle was
not insane before he killed himself.
and also tried to show by the witness
that his maternal grandfather was in
sane, his monomania being imaginary
crimes committed a long time ago i'm
Ireland. Orchard denied all knowl-
edge of his grandfather. but admitted
that his uncle was demented
The entire afternoon session was
taken up with the examination Of the
witnesses who contradicted the evil
dence given by c. w. Aller. who tes--
titled for the defense in support of the
charge of conspiracy against the West
ern Federation in which il is alleged
the mine owners association. the citi-
zens alliance and Pinkerton detective
agency were concerned. Aller swore
that he saw Orchard and d. c. Scott
together at the depot of the Florence
and Cripple Creek Railway on Sunday
about three weeks prior to the explo-
sion OF the Independence depot on the
sixth day of June, 1904. Scott, this
afternoon swore that he was not in
Cripple Creek at the time and a num-
Der of witnesses corroborated this. AS
a result of this rebuttal testimony in
formation sworn out after court ad-
journed charging Aller with perjury.
The explosion of the residence of
Fred Bradley at San Francisco was
again under consideration today, the
state undertaking to show that the ef-
feet of the explosion OF Illuminating
gas could not have been that describ-
ed in the dispositions taken for the de-
fense in San Francisco. The manager
of the Boise Gas company. c. d. Lamp

son. qualified as expert. He discredit-
ed the proposition that gas could be
ignited by the glow of the end of a
cigar. He was cross examined at con-
siderable length by Richardson and
showed a close technical knowledge of
gas and its possibilities as an ex-
plosive. The general effect Of his evil
dence was that the explosion at the
Bradley House could not have been
caused by gas.
Much amusement was caused by a
wordy engagement between Z. F.
Richardson and f. NJ. Sabine. an at
torney of Idaho Springs. Colo. Sa-
blne was engaged in the prosecution of
q number of cases charging fourteen
members Of the Federation with crime
and conspiracy during the labor
troubles of>1903. Richardson was the
defending counsel in the case. There
was a sharp exchange between these
two. but enough good humored badi-
mage to keep the court room in a rip
pie of laughter for half an hour. Sa
bine intimated a willingness to tell
many things Richardson appeared
anxious to keep out of the record and
il kept Haywood's counsel busy head
ing the witness away from dangerous
ground. Sabine admitted that Rich
ardson had beaten him and cleared
clients but he managed to get before
the jury his opinion that the defend
ants were guilty notwithstanding the
verdict of the jury to the contrary.

A WITNESS
FALLS DOWN
The One On Whom Heney
Mainly Relied
The Man Who Gave Out the
Bribe Money is Jailed for
Contempt.

San Francisco, JULY l.. - The first
serious blow to the bribery and graft
prosecution was struck by the Louis
Glass defense in o0en court today,
through Emile thinner. the second vice
president and director Of the Pacific
States Telephone company. who at
first refused to be sworn. He after
ward accepted the oath, took the stand
answered two or three unimportant
questions put BY Heney, and then re-
fused to testify further. He was by
Judge Lawlor committed for contempt
to the county Jail for a term of five
days, and until the question Is answer
ed. Under the law as interpreted BY
the court, this means that thinner
must sta- in TAIL throughout the pro-
gress of the Glass trial. OF until he
signifies his willingness to testify.
on thinner the prosecution relied
as its most important witness against
Vice President Glass. accused of
bribery. At the time the crime is al
legged to have been committed. in
March. 1906, Louis Glass was acting
president and general manager Of the
Pacific States company owing to the
death OF President John ]. Sabin. Be-
fore the grand jury thinner testified
that Glass drew checks for the bribe
moneys claimed to have been paid to
the supervisors, caused thinner to
cash same, instructed him to give the
money to Agent Halsey and require
from Halsey no voucher. merely car
rying these thousands of dollars on the
current expense account. Mayor
Charles Boxton told the Glass jury
that he. as supervisor. accepted $4,000
from Agent Halsey to vote against the
ordinance granting a rival franchise
to the Home Telephone company and
on this and other strong foundation
stones the prosecution proposed today
to rear the fabric of Glass guilt.
If Heney has other material at hand
to substitute. the building of the case
may proceed tomorrow. About that.

ment to make on any point at this
time" is the way he put II to news

Neither would Delmas. leader of
the defense. say word. II is admit
ted that the action of thinner places
powerfully persuasive argument in
the hands of the jury: but on the 9TH
er hand the question is heard: 'If
Heney cannot replace thinner. will
not the defense have strong grounds
on which to urge an instruction TO
acquit?"
Zimmer's refusal TO testify is based
on the statement by him: THE grand
jury has seen fit to indict several gen.
tlemen on evidence that seems insuffi-
cient; therefore l decided to take this
stand in order to protect myself" He
meant that he would avail himself OF
his constitutional right not to be
made a witness against himself" al
though in reply 10 questions by the
court. he averred that he did not fear
that his answer might tend to subject
himself. to felony prosecution or that il
would degrade his character-the two
grounds on which the law allows a
witness the right to refuse to testify

TOXIC TOWN
UNDISTURBfD
by Reported Arrest of
japanese Officer
The Newspapers Refrain
From 1ndulging In Any
Sort of Comment.

Toledo. Tuesday. July 16.-News of
the arrest in America of japanese
officer in the act of sketching a fort.
which is totally discredited here and
would ordinarily have invited angry
comments against the source of the
information, is quietly left without
editorial comment in the leading Jap
anese papers. An explanatiop of this
attitude may be sought in the fact
that despite the war talk which is
being transmitted here from America,
the impression continues to prevail
that the friendly relations existing
between the United States and Japan,
are too deep rooted to be destroyed
by any anti-Japanese sentiment,
which. however, loudly voiced is
known to be limited to a small sec
tion.
The presence in America of Admiral
Yamamoto at this time is considered
to be timely and in the cordial re-
ception accorded him by the president
is profoundly appreciated as forecast
inc a satisfactory solution of the la
Dor question. Moreover. the Korean
question is, now claiming foremost at
tentfon almost to the exclusion of all
other topics.
II may safely be said that the whole
nation is confidently trusting Marquis
Ito or Foreign Minister Hayashi to deal
with the Koreans in such manner as
to exterminate the last element of hos
tile intrigues against Japan with the
full support of the powers. In this
connection the fact is recalled with
appreciation that when the protector
ate over Korea was signed the United
States was the first to notify Toxic
of the withdrawal of its legation from
Seoul.

Berlin. July 15.-From six to eight
inches of rain has fallen throughout
the greater part of Germany during
the last three days and as result a
number of rivers have overflowed the

to the surrounding country. No less
than a dozen miner railroad accidents

The floods were especially severe in
western Germany. Casualties to the
number of so have been reported. prin-
cipally single persons caught by the
