ment

For persisting in asking a question that
the court had overruled, Attorney j.
Marion Brooks was fined $40 for contempt
yesterday by Judge Hutton in department
of the superior court.
Brooks was counsel for the defendant
in a damage suit that grew out of an
assault in the Mexican quarter, and in
cross-examination of one of the plaintin s
witnesses he attempted to make the wit
ness contradict a statement he had made
on direct examination.
The attorneys for the plaintin objected
to the question and the court sustained
the objection, at the same time warning
the counsel to desist his efforts to con-
fuse the witness.
After excepting to the ruling, Brooks
put the question in slightly different
form, evoking another objection by the
That will do" remarked the judge.
Mr.. Brooks, you are fined $40 for con-

retorted Brooks in tone that implied In

he requested the clerk to draw check
for the amount of the fine.

interposed Judge Hutton. You will pay
the money to the bailiff, and unless it is
paid you will be confined in the county

tone.
Brooks submitted without comment and
left the court room in the custody of the
officer.
Later he paid the fine.

A SECOND pITTsBuRG

No more will the observant stranger
say to the citizen of Los Angeles, "You
have a delightful residence city, but II
never can be a great industrial center,
you know"
As an example of the change in such
sentiment note an opinion expressed
here a few days ago by visitor who
is prominent electrical engineer in
Pittsburg: with all the cheap power
at hand in your oil fields and water
powers there is no reason why Los
Angeles should not become a great
this city is destined, before long, to be-
come one of the great manufacturing
cities of the country; it cannot escape
it,"
Another Pittsburg in. vast industrial
activity is the forecast of the cleo
trician from the Smoky city," but he
kindly gives assurance that Los Angeles
need not be apprehensive about condi-
tions that gave Pittsburg it's unenviable
distinction. He says: at is on just
such natural conditions that Pittsburg
has won her place as one of the richest
cities in the world, but Los Angeles can
become another Pittsburg, minus the
dirt, by the use of electric power"
While coal was sine qua non in
manufacturing industries, the prospect
for such business in Los Angeles fully
justified the pessimistic views of OBJ
servers from abroad. The development
the usefulness Of that product as
substitute for coal, caused a radical
change in the outlook. But it was not
until the possibilities of electric power
were revealed that such a forecast was
warranted as the one quoted from the
Pittsburg electrician.
Electric power has been employed
IN Los Angeles to some extent for sew
eral years in the manufacturing indus
tries, but limitation of that resource
was a drawback to such colossal indus
tries as are seen at points in the east
Los Angeles now has in sight, as rec
ognized by the best authorities. the
basis of electric power sufficient to
drive the machinery of any city on
earth.
There is hardly a limit to the power
resources that the Owens river water
supply will render available. Even the
vast requirement Of the city, thus far.
does not include supplies obtainable by
penetrating still farther into the great
snow-capped range of the Sierras,
whence flow the feeders of Owens
river.
And, as the Pittsburg man sums up
his prediction, when you have cheap
power you have the base on which to
build. Factories mean payrolls, and
payrolls mean prosperity to your

POPE NEEDS MONEY.

A few weeks ago your correspond
ent was the first to call attention to
the fact that Peters pence was de-
creasing and that the Vatican was
sadly in need of funds. Usually any
statement of this nature is followed
by a semi-oficial denial. In this par
tacular case, however, the Vatican gave
the widest publicity to the fact that
misleading reports had been circulated
throughout the world, that large OFFER
ings had been pouring into the holy
see. The opinion has been expressed
that the real object of these reports
was to stop or at least to diminish
the offering of the faithful in a period
in which the needs of the pope have
augmented. In this way the money
left by Mgr Adami to the pontiff was
represented as amounting to millions,

NEED TUNING UP.
Real Estate Man Says q Few
About Grand Forks Need in
the Way of Harmony.


"A great deal has been said in the
columns Of The Evening Times in the
past few weeks about real estate and
real estate agents." remarked broker
to The Evening Times representative
yesterday. 1T seems to me that the
people and the property owners are
not harmonious in Grand Forks. A
city situated like Grand Forks ought
to be tuned up like an immense orch
estra and every man-professional or
business the same string. We
all ought to pull the same way. That
is what it takes to make a city. When
ever there is public enterprise star
ted, everyone should pull that string
to make it success.

WOMAN A MIGHTY HUNTER.
Mrs. Akeley Baggcd Two Elephants

Field Columbian museum. Chicago,
and Mrs. Akeley have arrived in this
city on their way home, and on a
Fabre line steamship yesterday there
came eighty-four cases of skins and
skeletons weighing seventeen tons,
the result Of their expedition, which
will be added to the museum collec-
ton.
Intending to be gone only few
months, Mrs. Akeley remained with
the expedition to the end, it being
the longest African hunting trip ever
taken by woman. She took an ac-
tive part in all the hunting, two of
the eight elephants and one of the
rhinoceroses were shot by her.
During the last eight months of the
trip she and the rest OF the party
travelled entirely by foot, and for
months at time Mr.. and Mrs. Akeley
saw no white persons.
Using the Uganda railroad as our
base," MIR. Akeley said last night. 1--WE

from seventy-five to $50 of them. Dur
ing all of that time no one of the
party was ever i'll, there was not an
accident, and the most thrilling ex-
perience was when we would be in
a 'rhino' country, and the big animals
would charge us.
Our collection consists of many
specimens, ranging from small ro-
dents to an elephant, which is as
large as ever was killed in that coun-
try. We have eight lions, ranging
from cub to large black named
one, which will give to the Columbian
museum the finest group in the world.
In fact. with the specimens we
brought back and the collection
made in Somaliland ten years ago,
the Field museum will have by far
the finest African collection in this
country. IL not in the world.

had was that she did not get shot

Mr.. and Mrs. Akeley both returned
In good health, although both were

night, 1t being the first real cold they
had experienced since they sailed
from Boston in the fall of 1905.

X, as the relatives of Mgr. Adami are
contesting the will. Cardinal Tripepi
left scarcely $4,000, not only to the
pope. but to benevolent institutions,
merely entrusting the pontiff with the
management Of the money. In sim
liar way the large sums supposed to
have been given to the pontiff by other
cardinals and other sovereigns are
mere inventions.
The truth is, according to the Vati-
can, that while in consequence of the
separation law in France, the church
loses there $s,000.000 yearly, the
Peters pence revenue is constantly
diminishing and the ordinary revenues
of the holy see are scarcely sufficient
for eight months of the year, so that
for the remaining four months the
pope is entirely dependent upon the
offerings of the faithful.
