POLITICIANS ANXIOUS
TO RETAIN JUDGESHlP

LONG BEACH, Dec 21.-It Is re-
ported here that the supervisors will
oppose the appointment of successor
to Justice of the Peace 7. J. Hart, who
recently resigned. on the ground that
this city does not require two justices,
particularly since the police court of
the city has about the same powers.
This hint of economical legislation
has aroused to new activity the friends
of stephen Underwood, an applicant
for the office. Justice Hart resigned
to become city police Judge. Under
wood was an unsuccessful candidate
before the convention of the other par
ty for the same office. Justice Hart
later recommended him as his sue

the float which the Canadian associa-
tion will enter in the tournament OF
roses parade were decided upon this

which was exceedingly novel, one of lis
features being the largest moose head

SANTA ANA NEWS NOTES

SANTA ANA, Dee 21.-The local So
ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty TO
Animals has taken a hand in the mat
ter of muZzling dogs as required by a
recent ordinance by suggesting that the
wire muzzlc is preferable to the strap
muzzles, giving the dog more freedom
of mouth with less liability to chafing,
and yet with the same protection to the
public.
Eight Japanese, represented by Ma
yeda, are suing Tamora for 1882,
which they claim is due them for hoe
ing, thinning and topping 14O acres of
beets. The case was heard in the su-
periOr court today.
Tomorrow night the veterans Of the
civil War, including visiting members
of the G.. A. r., are to be the banquet
guests Of SedgWick Relief corps at u.
A. y. han. There will be a Christmas
tree, bearing presents for every old
soldier.

M0JAVE DESERT COVERED
WITH MANTLE OF WHITE

SAN BERNARDINO, Dec. 21.-The
heaviest fall Of snow on the desert in
years covers the Mojave desert for
many miles north OF the San Eernar-
dino mountain range. At Needles, on
the Colorado river. six inches of snow
fell during the night, while at Victor
vile, at the foot of the range, an even
foot is reported. The Santa Fe rail-
road tracks through Cajon pass are
covered to the depth Of twelve inches.
Trains arriving here during the morn
ing, which had passed over the desert
during the night, We're covered with
from four to six inches of snow.
The mountains to the north Of San
BernardinO are heavily coated, al
though no snow reached the valley on

SAN PEDRO
Correspondent Sunset 1900; Home SS.
TRAFFIC DEAL IS
BEING NEGOTIATED
Make Connections with It at
San Pedro or San
Diego
[speeial to The Herald. ]

SAN PEDRO. Dee 21.-Shipping cir
cles are awaiting with interest devel-
opments in the contemplated traffic ar
rangements which are being negotiat-
ed between the North Pacific Steam
ship company, which operates the
steamers Roanoke and AGeorge w.
Elder from Portland to this port, and
the COmpania Nayiera Del PaCifico
). A, which owns a large number Of
vessels plying between Mexican and
Central American ports, and which
will put on a steamer into san Diego
January 3, 1910.
d. w. Ferguson, district passenger
and freight agent for Charles p. Doe
& Co., the managing owners of the
North Pacific Steamship company, and
George W. Beermaker, general agent
at san Diego for the Compania Naviera
Del Pacifico S. A, were in San Pedro
this afternoon, and Charles p. Doe of
san Francisco is expected here in a
few days.
A traffic arrangement is to be made,
that is certain. Mr.. Ferguson has al
ready been made the general passen-
ger and freight agent for the Mexican
line at Los Angeles, but the question
to be settled is whether the North
Pacific boats are to connect with the
Mexican steamers at San Diego or
whether the steamer Benito Juarez,
the new boat which will leave san
Diego for the south January 3, will
come as far north as San Pedro on
the return trip and make connections
with the Roanoke or the Elder for the
northern passage.
The fact that coal facilities are lack
ing is an argument used against bring
ing the Mexican steamer here. As the
freight rate to Los Angeles is the same
from San Diego as from this port, no
1 inducement can be offered to bring
vessels from Mexico here in preference
to san Diego.
If Los Angeles Is to develop Mex
lean trade through its own harbor ter
minal rates at the harbor are of neces-
sitV the first essentials

JUSTICE HOLDS HUSBAND
UNDER NEW FELONY LAW

SAN PEDRO, Dec. 21.-Thomas
Perry Faulconer, who was arrested for
desertion and failure to provide for
his wife and children, was bound over
10 the superior court by Justice L. f.
Wells Of Redondo, who was sitting for
Justice Stiegltz in the township court
today. Faulconer is out on a $1,000
bond.
An interesting point in the case is
that the first complaint was sworn to
prior to May 10, which was the date
the new law making desertion felony
went into effect. Prior to this date
misdemeanor was the penalty. Justice
Wells held that section go of the penal
code was applicable TO the case.

Notes and Novelties.

eral bolts of silk are sent for the great
ladys approval. Does the shopkeeper
enter the royal presence with his goods ?
No. indeed He is first intercepted by a
footman. then by some one higher up.
At length he is interviewed by lady in
waiting, and it is her province to submit
the material in question to her royal mis-
tress.
Women Wear Bangs.
TT seems as though the bang has come
to stay. regardless of criticism. The
bang is intrenched for the winter, and
in a large measure it will be becoming.
1t compels women to lift from their fore
heads that low-hanging mass of hair,
now the fashion. and substitute it with a
tiny, wavy fringe. The bangs are not cut
from the hair, but are purchased at
stores where hair good are sold.
Gowns of cashmere for house wear
have now received velvet touch which
enhances their charm and gives them a
new opportunity for coloring the dresses
The German kaiser cloak, comfortable
commOdious and practical. is one of the
best innovations of the season. 1t has
an enormous fur collar and revers.
Wired ribbon bands, embr oidered with
beads, go around the head to the knot
at the back ard end under it, or have
perky ends that give couquettish touch.
Costly simplicity is the ruling note in
fashion. More care is devoted to Or
namentation that ever before, but it is
of the simple description always.
Hair goods of all kinds prevail, some
single and of considerable width, and
some double. like the Greek filet.

superb pale yellow aigrette lifts this sim

this one would pay in Paris more than

TricOrnes. bicornes and auatrecornes are
the rage in Paris, and all of these shapes
belong to the Louis period, when they
were worn by the gay gallants and court
beauX. Later the tricorne was adopted
as military headgear The modern tri-
corne, by the by, is not put on with the
point directly in the center of the front.
1t must be twisted just the least bit side
WAYS so that the point is over the left eye.
The tricorne is becoming TO almost
every one. provided il sets far enough

trying. and the quatrecorne with its four
corners is only for the young face shaded
by plenty of fluffy hair.

Girls and Flowers.

A girl can make her winter street
frock look particularly smart by pinnine
on a bunch of small flowers. But the i'm
provement, be it understood. is only pos
sible when she knows how to fasten the
adornment for nothing detracts more
from the effect of a costume than now
ers badly arranged.
For instance, carnations should never
be worn at the corsage; these blossoms
are valuable for room decoration and 10
carry, when a large sheaf of them may
he laid across the arm to finish an even
ing toilet.
These, however must be held only in a
certain way. To grasp the stem is awk-
ward; instead, the arm is bent at the
elbow, the hand coming below at the
waist line. This forms cradle in which
the flowers are to be laid, the heads by
the elbow. but projecting beyond it, l
know of no other way in which l consider
carnations ornamental to the costume.
Made into punches of three or four. with
two or three fiat ferns, they are entirely
without beauty for any purpose. Ferns,
indeed, the fat Boston variety, are never
pretty for the corsage.
Chrysanthemums and other long stem
med, big-headed flowers should be ar
ranged, II to be carried, like carnations.
Few girls will believe me. but in my
opinion one rose is far more effective
than three or four when pinned to the
corsage. More than one Is apt to have a
stiff and crowded effect, a fact that is
fatal in flowers. One bloom may sway
gracefully and be a really charming bit
Of color and an addition as trimming.
but the girl who has half dozen or
twelve must carry them or wear them
for a shaped piece that goes down over
the bodice. suggesting the waistline.
Violets, of course, are the simplest flow
ers to fasten ON. but even these may be
made to appear homely. Here let me
say that never are flowers pretty when
pinned on the shoulder between the arm
and the neck. There they have no place
they are neither ornamental nor useful.
because they make the line of the figure
