in with z. v. Chambers and Chauncey
Burnell, a couple of mining men from
the Copperfield district in the west
ern part of the county, and succeeded
in getting a number of drinks at one
of the Prospect Heights thirst parlors
at the expense Of their newly made
acquaintances. The drinks established
a sort Of community of feeling be-
tween them and they were soon on q
fraternal footing.
It was but natural that Moose and
his pals should find out that the two
mining men had a considerable sum
of money on their persons, and 1t was
equally logical that they should try
to- get possession of it by means II
robbery.
They hung around Chambers and

some sound sense from a speech of

There has been much wild talk as

on the commercial value of the rail-
roads of the country, together with the
reports made to the interstate COM

their cost of construction, tend TO
show that, as a whole, the railroad

PASADENA GETTING READY
TO GIVE BELL OVATION

Thousands of handbills were distrib-
uted in Pasadena yesterday announce
ing the speech of Theodore A. Bell at
lever in that portion of the scriptures
concerning the command to allow both
cheeks to be smitten, she contented her
self with calling him name that is not
used In polite society. Then, declared
Stanford after Mrs. Simons had re-
lieVed her mind and vented her anger.
she caught up her skirts and walked
disdainfully away, scorning to notice
him.
Stanford declares that kind of con-
duct is beyond the pale of business
ethics, and asked that a complaint be
issued against Mrs. Simons charging
her with battery.
Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Ford
took the matter under advisement and
wrote a letter to Mr.. and Mrs. Simons
asking them to appear at his office and
give their version of the affair.
Stanford walked from the office rub
bling his cheek and muttering that
women are called the gentler sex, but
he would just as soon be kicked by a
Democratic mascot as to be slapped by
some women.

Selection Of Man to Oppose McLach-
Ian VIII Be Made at Blanchard
Hall Convention This
Afternoon

This afternoon at 2 o'clock the Sew
.enth district congressional convention
will be held In Symphony hall, Blan-
chard building.
The selection of a congressman to
oppose James McLachlan,s Republican,
was postponed at the recent Stockton
convention till today
j. l.. Chase will preside and ID. M.
Hammack will be secretary.
The selection of a representative has
caused much discussion, Messrs Joseph
H. Call, T. e. Gibbon and Thomas Lee
Woolwine, who had been urged to run,
having declined because of the pres
sure of business and private affairs.
The latest man mentioned Is Capt.
Frank frey, president of the board of
trustees of Pomona, really the mayor
of the city. Captain frey spoke at
the recent harmony banquet at the
Democratic club.
Mattison B. Jones, Robert G. Loucks,
o. z. Parish and others have also been
mentioned for the honor.
If Mr.. Call persists In his declination,
politicians say 1t will make the rail-
road political bereaucrats feel easier,
because of Mr.. Calls known agrees
siveness In the nineteen years he pros
ecuted land grant cases against rail-
roads for the government as special
counsel. 1t is understood that were he
nominated the railroads would make
an extraordinary effort to keep him
from getting a seat in congress.

His Lincoln lecture touches the Pro
