made to find out who were officers of the
company. so the complaints could be
served, but all the officers detailed on the
case fell down.
week ago the matter was mentioned
to Franklyn and few days later the
officer left for Riverside. When he rer

papers. .
Judgment is asked by those who pur-
chased bonds issued by the district when
it was organized two years ago under
the Wright irrigation act, but which,
through failure of the undertaking. were
not redeemed.

SEPTUAGENARIAN IN COURT
ON A CHARGE OF INSANITY

Henry Chaplin, who was formerly pro-
prietor of a feed stable on South Los
Angeles street, was examined in the pro-
bate court yesterday for insanity. He
appears to be about 70 years old, but is
unable to remember either names or

trouble, usually sitting quietly at "a win
dow, entirely Indifferent to what goes on
around him.

sary information as to his age, birth
place. etc., but could not remember any
thing.
Judge Rives continued the case for
week and IN EFFORT will be made to find

ADAMS ARRESTED BY
SEATTLE DETECTIVES
Man Wanted Here on Charge of Pass
ing Worthless Checks to Be
Brought to Los
Angeles

Acting Chief of Police Paul Flammer
received a telegram from Seattle yester-
day saying that j. B. Adams, wanted for
passing worthless checks, had been ar
rested by the police in that city.
Flammer notified the Seattle officers
several days ago that Adams was wanted
in this city and they found him soon
after.
1t is alleged Adams passed a worthless
check upon Louis 4-zner, the proprietor
of the Rainier cafe. I39 South Broadway,
for which he obtained 1879. The check
was drawn on the Central bank and
signed by Edward p. Talbot in favor of
j. B. Adams. When the check was pre-
sented at the bank for payment it was
found Talbot had no account there. This
check was presented for payment on
June 81, and two days later, June 20,
another worthless check was brought to
light.
1t was discovered that Adams had also
passed a worthless check on George
Tuttle of Pitcher Brothers establish
ment at 244 South Spring street. This
check was for SIS and was made in favor
of ]. B. Adams by Edward P. Dudley.
Detective Joseph Ritch will be sent to
Seattle to bring Adams back to Los An
geles.

COUNTERFEITER'S OUTFIT
is FOUND BY THE POLICE
MAKE UNEXPECTED
DISCOVERY
and Find Complete Plant for
Making Bogus Silver
Dollars

Milton schiekler, suspected by the police
of being a counterfeiter, is held ct the
police station pending an investigation
in regard to his past methods of earning
a living.
Schiekler was arrested several days ago
by Detectives Mcnamara and Craig.
When taken to the station he gave his
address as 202 North Main street The
detectives went to that number and
searched the room which had been oc-
cupied by the man.
When the officers returned to the police
station they carried with them a COM
plete counterfeiters outfit, several opium
pipes and a quantity of opium.
When questioned Schiekler denied own
ing the outfits but claimed they had been
left in his care by an acquaintance.
Only one counterfeit coin was found.
This had evidently been made by an
amateur. 1t was in the form of silver
dollar, but was poor imitation.
According to the police it is doubtful
if the man will be held, as no evidence
has been obtained that he ever made any
efforts to pass bogus coins.
The United States authorities have been
notified and will take up the counter
feiting outfit.

Tewfllt Pashn was dcvout. He told me
that he knew the Koran from one end
to the other, and that he could begin
at the back and quote almost every
paragraph from there to the front. He
had az much faith in his religion as
we have In ours but, he said, during
our talk. that he thought every mar
should follow the faith of his father,
THE ROYAL MoHAMMEDANS MO-
NOGAMISTS.
The khedives of the past have been
noted for their numerous wives. Every
one OF them has had the four allotted
by the Koran. and in addition con-
cubines and slaves. The father of the
present ruler was n monogamist. He
was true to his one wife, and. us far as
I can learn, she was u most accompl-
ished lady and queen. When | was
here before 1 heard many stories OF the
love which Tewfik Pasha had for this
young mans mother, and OF the
pleasant home they had outside of his
official career. 1t was probably that
example that made Abbas Hilmi
monogamist and gave him a home
which in its quiet and peace cores
ponds favorably with that of any ruler
of Europe. Indeed, Tewfik. the father
of Abbns Hilmi, once expressed HIM
self strongly in favor OF monogamy,
saying: I'm my own fathers harem
saw the disadvantages of many wives
and of many children by different
wives, and | then decided that when |
came to manhood l would marry but
one woman and be true to her. I have
done that and l have never regretted
It,"
The present khedive is undoubtedly
of much the same opinion. He has
been married 10 years, and that to a
single wife who is the mother of his
six children,
A BUSINESS RULER.
My conversation with his highness,
Abbas Hilmi, covered wide range. 1t
dealt with the present prosperity of
Egypt, and l can see that his highness
understands both his country and peo-
pie. He thinks that the Nile valley
has by no means reached the maxi
mum OF its possibilities, and says that
by increasing the dams and drainage
facilities Egypt might yield much
greater crops than she does. Now
spoke to him about having met his
| father, and referred to the great inter
| est which Tewfik Pasha showed in
| Egypt and its future. The khediVe eX-
| pressed similar desire to do all he
| could for the Egyptians, and had he
| greater power l am sure It would be
| used for their benefit As IL is now
1
| Of the British. and almost every act OF
| the khediYe, as far as official doings
| are concerned, Is directed by them.
| The only matters as to which his
| highness has full sway are those re-
| garding his own estates, and his man.
| agement of them is such as to show
| his great business capacity. He has
an allowance of $500, 900 a year out OF
| the public treasury, but in addition hC
| owns thousands of acres of valuable

in Egypt. He inherited much land
from his father, but he has other large
tracts. which he himself has redeemed
from the desert and others which he
has made good by draining. Not far
from Cairo he owns $500 acres, which
n few years ago We're covered with
swamps, quagmires and hillocks. He
bought this cheap and then began to
improve IT, He cut down the hills,
drained the swamps and put water on
the land. At present that estate is
paying over 100000 a year. and 1t is
bringing his hlghness so per cent and
upward on his Investment.
He has another great farm not far
from Alenxandria. which was all desert
not long ago. The lthedive laid down
. small railway and put dump cars on
IL. With this he hauled off the sand
which came from his drainage works.
and now has 1t well watered. He has
taken 1000 acres and turned them into
cultivated fields. Farm villages have
grown up about them and his highness
has so laid out the estate with trees
and flowers that 1t Is said to be a
paradise. In one place he-hns a PLAN
tation of $4,000 mulberry bushes, the
leares OF which furnish food for his
silk worms, and in other places there
are fir forests.
This estate is at Montzah, n few
miles out OF Alexandria. on a beautiful
hay of the Mediterranean sea. The
khedive has built a palace there, or
rather two palaces. He has a little
one for himself and a larger one for
his family. In other parts of the
estate he is carrying on all sorts of
breeding experiments, He has chicken
houses and rabbit hutches. as well as
O tower containing thousands of pig
cons. He has dynamos which fur
nish his place with electric lights, and
carpenter shops and planning mills
the machinery for which the same dy-
ramos operate during the day time. In
them all the woodwork required for
his various estates and houses is turn
ed out.
a STOCK BREEDER.
The khedive is fond of fine stock.
and he Is doing much to improve that
of Egypt on his various farms he
has high-bred horses. cattle and sheep.
He has large number of Arabian
thoroughbreds, some Jersey, Swiss and
other fine breeds of cows. and his
water buffaioes, known here as ia
moushes. are far better than any
others of the Nile valley. He Is also
breeding oxen and mules for
draft animals. His highness be-
lieves in scientific farming. He wants
good stock and good seed and he
| works to some extent with the aSri-
| cultural department here. He has a
school on his estate neur Cairo where
| 200 boys are being educated to take
places on his various properties. This
