Also the grand jury desires to eX- tend its thanks to the sheriff's office for their cooperation during the pres ent session of the grand jury"
 A B. Maple who early in the ses- sion had been indicted for burglarizing the national guard storehouse, who had withdrawn his plea and pleaded not guilty and was afterward indicted for a misdemeanor in connection with the same offense, yesterday pleaded guilty to the latter indictment on the advice of his attorney, Eugene Brady O'Neill. He was sentenced to pay a fine of s30 and that was done imme- diately. It was the opinion generally that Maple had intended to commit no crime but that he had a lurking notion that as a member of the na- tional guard he had a right to take certain liberties with the property of the guard and that he intended to re- turn the. property which had been taken. In fact there was evidence that he tried to get the property back but could not do it safely
 Thomas Fully who had been indict- ed for receiving the property taken by Maple also pleaded guilty to a mis- demeanor in that connection and he too was assessed a fine of $50 which was paid.
 J. H. w. Jensen pleaded guilty to selling liquor without a license and was fined s100. John Doe Hartman the bartender who had actually sold the liquor was also indicted but after the settlemsnt of the matter with MT. Jensen the indictment against him was dismissed
 In the case of Quong Yu who had been convicted of assisting in the burglary of the New York store. a motion for a new trial was denied. A certificate of probable cause was granted and his bond on appeal was fixed at 5000. Alberto Arvisa the principal in the New York store burg lary was sentenced to the penitentiary for three years dating from January l of this year.

GRAND JURYS
 LAST REPORT
Includes an Indictment of Chairman De SOuza
Charge of Illegal Election Trafficking With Fred Gardiner.

The grand jury yesterday submitted it's final report which had been await ed since noon the day before with some interest for it had been learned that an investigation of the acts of certain democratic politicians was in progress. Immediately after the in dictment of the republican workers, G. H. Carr and Fred Gardiner the latter having attributed his prosecution to the attacks of the Arizona Democrat, made public the fact that a year ago he had received from Frank De SouZa. the editor and one of the proprietors of the Democrat, and chairman of the democratic city committee. $50 to be used in working for J. w. Crenshaw for mayor against L. w. Coggins.
 MT. Gardiner regarded his indict- ment not as an attempt to purify the politics of the community but as a democratic attack upon him and he resolved to bring his transaction with Chairman De Souza before the grand jury. Gardiner appeared before the grand jury on Thursday and his tes- timony was supported by J. F. Smith. Accordingly the report returned yes terday included an indictment against MT. De Souza.
 He was arraigned soon after and the time for his plea was set for May 25. He furnished a bond in the sum of $500. Judge Baker has been re- tained for the defense.
 The grand jury in its final report offered the following views on the general subject of undue activity in politics:
 We your grand jury, further find by the examination of several wit nesses who appeared before this grand jury that it is the custom of political parties to indiscriminately employ voters to go to the polls and work for this or that particular ticket on cleo tiOn day under such circumstances as make it apparent that the true pu- pose of the employment is not to ob- tain work for the voter but to influ- ence the casting of his vote for some particular ticket or person at such elections.
 We find further that at the various elections held in this county that large sums of money are raised by the cen tral committee for the purpose of con- ducting the campaign, said sums being much larger than we deem are repui- site for legitimate purposes.
 We expressly condemn the practice engaged in bX any political party in- discriminatory employing voters on election day to induce the casting of their votes for the particular tickets. or persons. We believe that election campaigns can be conducted at much less expense than they have heretofore been if money used in said campaigns is expended solely for the purpose pre- scribed by the, statute
 In conclusion the grand jury adopted the following resolution and made it a part of the final report:
 Be it resolved that the district at torney and assistant district attorney receive the unanimous approval of this grand jury for the capable manner in which they have presented the cases and examined the witnesses and that vote of thanks be extended to them for their consideration of the grand jury and all matters that have been brought before it.

An Indian on Art.

A member of San Francisco's ART
fraternity had the good luck to visit
Washington some weeks ago and be
hold the famous Congressional library
in all its rare and exquisite beauty.
While he stood at the foot of the great
staircase, lost in admiration of the no
bic architectural lines of the building
and the harmonious loneliness of the
wonderful bas-reliefs and friezes, he
observed an Indian, black haired
piercing eyed and blanketed after the
fashion of his ancestors, enter the vast
rotunda Walking slowly to the center
Of the entrance hall, he advanced still
farther to the staircase, placed one
grimy hand gingerly upon the broad
balustrade, and, turning to the artist.
who had perceived all his actions with
a lively curiosity, he opened his lips
and spoke three words only, but it is
doubtful If the wonderful library will
ever echo words of greater or more un.
affected appreciation. The Indian and
the artist stood face to face, and the
artists eyes fell before the savage's
question. He had asked simply, MAN
make it?"-San Francisco Call.

Exercising q Thorax.


DR.. Leopold Jaches of Cornell's Med
ical school recently returned from a
study Of the use of the Rocntgen rays
abroad. Pausing in an account of his
tour, DR.. Jaches said:
abroad, as here at home, the great
publics knowledge of the rays contin-
ues rather vague. Investigators re-
ceive all manner of queer letters and
requests. Thus l heard in Berlin of a
man who wrote to a specialist:
Dear Sir-I have had a bullet in
my thorax for eleven years. am too
busy to come to Berlin, but hope you
will come down here with your rays.
as my case should be worth your
while. If you cannot come, send a
packet of rays. with Instructions as to
use, etc, and I will see if l cannot
manage to work them myself
"The specialist replied:
"'Dear Sir-I am sorry that my en-
prevent my coming to see
you and that | am out of rays just
now. If you cannot come to Berlin
yourself. send me your thorax by ex-
press, and / will do the best l can with

Some Stern Laws In Foreign Lands.
Siamese Manners.

Siamese Manners.
1t is astonishing how my strange
medieval forms of etiqut[,e have sur
vived to rank among the greatest trib-
ulations of royal families of the pres
ent time When the present king of
Spain was a child of seven he was
playing in the palace at Madrid and
pitched headlOng down the great mar
bic staircase. Undoubtedly he would
have been killed had not a footman
standing on one Of the landings rushed
forward and caught him. The next
moment the footman realized with hor-
ror that he had committed n serious
crime by laying hands on his sover-
eign.
The stern laws of etiquette at the
court compelled his dismissal in dis
grace despite the gratitude of the
queen and the royal family. The
queen mother. however. gave the man
sum Of money with an annuity for
life and appointed him a gatekeeper on
one of her private estates, but he was
never again quite the same. He could
never forget the disgrace that his alb
sentmindedness had brought upon him.
The same rule Of etiquette was re-
sponsible for the death Of a queen Of
Siam. wife of the present king. who
celebrated his birthday so munificently
in HOmburg recently. The present
queen of Siam. by the way. is the
kings half-sister, was formerly only
the second queen, and another half
sister of the king shared his throne as
principal wife and first queen. She
persisted almost twenty years ago
While embarking one evening on |
board her state barge for trip on the
river Menam, on the shores of which
Bangkok is built, she fell overheard.
For any one but the king to have
touched her in attempting her rescue
would have constituted a violation of
the laws of etiquette, punishable with
death IN its most horrible form. And
it happened that the king was not pres
ent. Nobody could see a way of rescu-
ing the queen without laying hands on
her. and the attendants had too much
regard for their own lives to take any
at heroism. They gazed down
at the floundering, shrieking queen and
the etiquette for the occa-
sion. After awhile the shriels ceased,
and the discussion was changed to the
rules of etiquette connected with the
fishing out of her body. The court
