Quite The Real Thing.

Mrs. Bradley Martin, having bee1
born and bred in New York, naturally
is now passing the summer in her ar
cient feudal castle at Balmacaan.
Glen Urquhurt, Inverness, Scotland.
Her brother-in-law, Mr.. Frederick
Townsend Martin, of late has given
her a birthday fete after her own
heart, and we read of it thus in the
New York Herald:
Mr. Martin gave a treat to the
school children in the villages around
Balmacaan to celebrate the birthday
Four hundred and fifty children were
present and were joined by the young
and old from surrounding districts,
making a total of more than 1000.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bradley Martin were
present and were heartily cheered,
they and their distinguished guests
doing all in their power to make the
day happy one. Coppers were scat
tered among the children, each of
whom also got a useful present. Mr..
Frederick Townsend Martin addressed
the school children, and at his cal
hearty cheers were given for Mr.. and
Mrs. Bradley Martins little grandson,
Lord Ellington, who was unable to be
present owing to his school duties.
Could the art of illusion as applied
to modern Anglomania be carried to
higher pitch. Here we have the
humble peasantry assembling around
the great monor-house to receive lar
gesse and to cheer their lord and lady.
Here is aristOcratic graciousness on
the one side and greateful subservi-
ance on the other. The mention of
the unfortunate prior engagement of
Little Lord Ellington" adds the last
touch of reality to the scene.

Chapel Ceremony Performed by Rev.
Baker p. Lee-TweIve Persons
Attend-SIayer Still in
Hospital

Pierce Brothers chapel was the
scene of solemn gathering yesterday
morning when funeral services were
held over the body of Mrs. Charlotte
L. Noyes, shot by w. p. McComas.
The funeral services were conducted
by Rev. Baker P. Lee, who volunteered
his services. The ceremony was short
and impressive and consisted of a
scriptural reading by the minister and
a solo, which was sung by Mrs. Lee
Twelve persons attended the services
and several punches of violets and car
nations were placed on the casket.
The body will be shipped to Boston
today, Pierce Brothers being notified
by the Wells-Fargo Express company
that the necessary arrangements had
been made.
w. P. McComas is still confined in the
detention ward of the county hospi-
tai, where he was taken the evening
following the shooting. He is reported
to be recovering rapidly from his burns,
but it will probably be week or two
before he will be allowed to leave there.
He is daily visited by many friends,
the majority of them being Shriners.
Nearly every one who has visited him
express their sympathy and offer him
any assistance he may require.
Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Pear
son yesterday issued complaint
against McComas charging him with
murder. The complaint was sworn to
by Detective Roberds.

Testimony

Though the proposed caucus of city
councilmen failed to meet yesterday 1t
is generally understood that the cleo
trio lighting rate will on Monday be
lowered from to cents.
So many constituents have had
wordy ,set-tos with their ,councilmen
that consumers may win by sheer force
OF insistence.
At least five of the councilmen are
said to have been won over to the
cut rate.
1t is argued, that the companies can
raise the power rate bit and thereby
recoup themselves IL their claim that
they are losing money at 8 cents per
lilowatt hour is substantiated.
A solid phalanx of corporation at
torneys has been working for the big
companies, marshaling their politica.
forces and accommodating arguments
ard showlngs, hoping to convince that
rates should be raised rather than
lowered.
Technical and confusing testimony
may be introduced with a view to de-

PROSECUTOR
City Attorney Hewitt, on Whom SUI
preme Court Bestowed Power
of Appointment, Taking
Counsel

Intense interest is being manifested
in the probable course of City Attorney
Leslie r. Hewitt with regard to NAM
ing a force of police court prosecutors,
a power invested in him by the recent
supreme court decision.
City Prosecutor E. J. Fleming, the
chief incumbent, is being fought by the
RAJ road and trolley interests because OF
his earnestness in enforcing laws affect
ing utility corporations.
Mr.. Hewitt was unwilling to say last
night on whom his choice had centered,
though it is said that all but one of the
present force will be reappointed. Mr..
Hewitt has been at home sick since
Wednesday noon.
Non-partisans are said to be working
for an entire change in the personnel
of the prosecutors, giving the positions
to a number of ambitious young law
yers. headed by Robert Loucks.
The reappointment of Fleming is
favored by the administration.
