MISCONDUCT IN OFFICE.
Charge Made Against Chief Of Police
ST San Francisco.

0au Iau~'oSOs
San Francisco, June 5.-The grand
jury has filed with District Attorney
Langdon a formal complaint against
Chief of Police Oman charging him
with willful and corrupt misconduct
In office in that he subverted the law
in endeavoring to secure the acqu1ttal
Of a defendant without the knowledge
of the district attorney. The defend
ant in the case was Mayor Schmitz
and the investigation by the grand
jury grew out of the accusation OF AS
sistant District Attorney Heney that
Chief Oman had attempted to tamper
with the talesmen drawn for the jury
which is to try the mayor on the
charge of extortion. Chief Oman was
accused by Assistant District AttOr-
ney Heney Of having detailed some of
his officers to interview prospective
Jurors in the interest of Schmitz. The
chief practically admitted having de-
tailed men to shadow some of the men
on the venire, but declared that he did
so because he wanted to see that no
improper person got on the jury. An
other basis for the information filed
by the grand jury is the accusation
that the chief afforded protection to a
disorderly resort.

superior court, with removal from his
position as the penalty if guilty.

The Onion Dodge.

Incredible as it may SEEM" said the
detective, there are many shoplifters
who steal by the agency Of the onion.
These men, before setting out upon
their contemplated crimes, eat Of raw
onions abundantly. Then they stroll
into the sllversmith's or the haberdash-
er's or the jewelers. that they propose
to rob.
"'Show me those large solitaires sur
rounded with pigeon blood rubies,
please says the jewel thief.
"The clerk brings forth the tray Of
gems and, bending over it, the thief
signs with admiration. His face close
to the clerks, he signs again. And the
clerks nostrils culver, and he turns
away his head. The inspection Of the
diamonds continues for some minutes.
Throughout it the thief keeps breath
ing hard, the clerk keeps turning his
head away, and hence it Is no wonder,
at the days end, that a couple Of costly
rings. are missing."-New York Press.

plucked goose, but the cat came safely

The Word HFudue.n

The expression "Fudge!' which is
heard SO often nowadays, is not new
one. On the contrary, its origin dates
back to the reign of Charles H., when
there was a sea captain who was
named Fudge.
No matter how unsatisfactory his
voyage, this nautical man always re-
turned with an endless string Of pre-
posterous tales Of great deeds and sue
cess His propensity for classifying be-
came SO we'll known that whenever
any one was heard telling a question

Art and Happiness.

Artists are not as a class the happi-
est Of mortals, but that Is because they
fail to relate the ideal nationally to
life rather than because they are VOW
ed to standards of perfection. Unhap-
piness comes upon them as it would
upon any one else-in consequence Of
folly and indifference and willfulness-
and their devotion to art, which is Of
ten held to be the cause Of their mis-
fortunes, Is In reality the only mitigat-
ing factor In their lives.-Bliss Oarman

FIST FIGHT IN CONGRESS.
Between Williams Of Mississippi and
De Almond of Missouri.

Washington.-The spirit of rivalry
that for five years has alternately
smoldered and blazed between John
Sharp Williams of Mississippi, leader
of the minority. and David A. De Ar
mond of Missouri, eliminated in
tistic fight Thursday on the floor of
the House Of Representatives.
The blows of Representative De
Almond caused blood to flow down the
face Of Representative Williams and
only the forcible intervention Of
friends cut the combat short.
Mr.. DeArmond bore away Il scuffed
nose.
Mr.. Williams struck the first blow
and Mr.. De Almond retaiiated vigor-
ously with clenched fists. When the
combatants were separated blood was
flowing down Mr.. Williams face from
n small cash In the left cheek and his
forehead was red and abrazed.
The encounter was witnessed by
more than 100 members of the house
and by as many more persons in the
galleries. among them score OF
women.
While the battle lasted the excited
spectators in the galleries pressed
against the rails. Men and women
leaned far over. apparently holding
their breath as blow after blow was
struck and returned and the combat.
ants lunged forward and swayed back.
When Mr.. Williams was released he
went Immediately into cloak room
and while removing the stains OF the
combat said:
"The disagreement arose over COM
mittee assignment. Mr.. De Armond
called me to task for recommending
his colleague, MIR. Booher. TO no more
prominent committee than that on
coinage. weights and measures. He
charged me with lack of veracity.
then struck him and we exchanged
blows. 1t is most regrettable that the
floor should be selected for such an
affair"
According to Mr.. De Almond, the
episode arose over the correctness of
conversation between himself and
Mr.. Williams about ten days ago re-
garding the committee assignments of
some Missouri members. and particu.
larry of Mr.. Booher. Upon Mr.. De
Almonds insisting that he had not
specified any committee to which he
desired TO have his colleagues as.
signed, Mr.. Williams. he said. brusque.
ly replied that It was simply mat.
ter of recollection between the two.
''He said this" said Mr.. De Armond
in such way as to leave no other
Inference than the one suggested,
and ! told him believed him TO be n
liar. He thereuDon struck me and
