The woman whose aim is to reveal

fashioned candlestick. 1t is revival
as happy in its way as that of the re-
turn to favor of Sheffield or pewter
ware. The candle held its own against
the oil lamp, but lost it's popularity
when gas came in, and It was practi-
cally outlawed when electricity came
into general use. Now, however, many
women of society are using candles ex-
tensively. One society leader, in fact,
has gone to the extreme OF having
electric fixtures removed from several
rooms, relying entirely upon candles
for lighting. These candles she dis
plays in antique candlesticks of beaten
brass. Tall Russian candlesticks now
are seen on many library tables and
tall silver colonial sticks are on many
dressing tables. New candlesticks are
shown in pottery and wrought iron,
but antiques are first in favor. The
prices of old brass candlesticks have
advanced greatly in the last few weeks
and few now are TO be found in the
antique shops

Miss Matte Hughes. who was arrest
ed in Los Angeles Saturday at the in
stance Of the San Francisco police
department, was turned loose yesterday
owing to the fact that the complaining
witness, f. f. Lamb of Coalinga, could
not be located.
The Hughes woman was alleged by
Lamb to have secured from him mining
stock to the value of 81 500 by intro
ducing to him supposed brother by
the name of Casey, who proved to be
simply an accomplice of the Hughes
woman.
While residing in this city at the
Hotel Young, Turk and Taylor streets,
the woman was known as Mrs F. S.
Walters, and according to the statement
of Lamb secured the mining stock
through the alleged brother in order to
reinvest it for the mining man. After

the woman Lamb allowed her to return
to him the stock and to induce him to
leave the city, the police department be-
ing unable to locate him after having
had the woman detained in Los An
