"A Defective Information

( In the cases of P eople VS. j. M.
Coffman and People VS. John Delucchi,
who are alleged to have committed an
assault with intent to commit murder
upon one Manuel Lopez at Amador
City several weeks ago, funny con-
dition is presented by the informations
on file in the superior court. An ex-
animation of the papers disclosed the
fact that the defendant in each case
was charged with an assault upon him
self. The court, upon discovering the
defect, issued the following order in
each case:
Whereas. the information filed here
in against the above named defendant,
charges him with an assault with in
tent to kill and murder himself, and
whereas, it appears from an inspection
of the testimony taken at the prelimi
nary examination that if any offense
was committed by him it was that of
making an assault upon one Manuel
Lopez, with intent to kill and murder
the said Lopez.
1t is ordered that the defendant be
and appear in this court on Tuesday
November Is, 1910, to show cause why
an order should not be made either for
the dismissal of said action, or allow
ing the district attorney to file a new
or amended information against the
defendant 1t is further ordered that
the sheriff forthwith serve a copy of
this order upon the said defendant.
The sheriff went over TO Amador
City and served the orders upon the
defendants, and they appeared in court
on Tuesday. At their request the cases
were continued until the 18th.
On Thursday new informations were
filed, and the time of trial set for Mon
day, November %.

Attractive play Coming

"Come Back to Erin, - one of the
prettiest Irish plays now before the
public, with Chas. +. Mack in the
party of Larry Dillon will be the at
traction at Loves hall two nights,
commencing on Saturday, November
10th.
That this play has been doing a
tremendous business for the past two
seasons is the best possible evidence
that it has met with popular approval.
1t is different from other Irish plays,
in that it does not relyupon buffoon-
ery-monkey-faced makeups, and u
lot of slap-stick comedy for its popu
larity. Irishmen all over the country
are unanimous in their praise of the
play and star. and indorse them
by a liberal patronage. Yet one does
not have to be an Irishman to enjoy
this performance, any more than one
has to be Frenchman to enjoy

man or woman who Delights In
snappy clean comedy, interspersed
with folks songs, Characteristic dances,
and sparkling comedy. The old Irish
sung by Mr. Mack and others
of the company, are those which will
live forever and are enshrined in the
hearts of Irishmen everywhere. The
company carry their own scenery,
which has been reproduced from photos
taken in Ireland. A large company
is necessary to interpret the play. and
has been selected because of the fit
ness for their different parts. The

Gov. Brown viii Announce.
After June 4th.

Atlanta, Ga, Alty 27.-Hon. Joseph
NJ. Brown will again be candidate for
governor and will be elected. This
statement is made after close stu
dy Of the political situation up to
this time. It is reported in state DO
litical circles that the governor would
make his formal announcement in
the Sunday papers. This appears to
have been an error.
It is learned that the governor will
have nothing to say until after the
meeting of the state democratic ex-
ecutive committee, which is to be held
in Atlanta June 4th. His announce
ment, therefore, may be expected
next week.
Considerable discussion has been
going the rounds as to the probable
issues in the coming campaign.
Those close to the governor say
that he win make his race practt-
cally on the same platform of his
former campaign in 1908 This, as is
known, embraces the issues which

COTTON Is IN FINE CONDITION

Crop Condition at Present Said TO he
Excellent.

ATLANTA, Ca, May 28.-The state
agricultural department is compiling
a report which will show the condi-
ton of all crops in the State up to
May 81. To that end questions have
been sent out to farmers in all the
counties.
Assistant Commissioner of Agricul-
ture Bob Wright is not one who takes
a pessimistic view of crop condi-
lions.
He thinks that the cotton crop is up
to the average for the present season
of the year, and that, with good sea-
sons, an excellent crop may be ex-
pected. He says that there is a much
better stand of cotton than many sup
pose.
There was much replanting needed
on account of the cold weather of sew
eral weeks ago.

BUTTER MAY GO TO
81 TO FIGHT PACKERS
Chicago and EIgin interests
May Raise Price.

Chicago, May 2S.-Following the an
nouncement that the Chicago meat
packing int. ests had contracts for
about 100000 pounds Of butter. prao-
uaaIly all of the output of the Omaha
market during June and July, to be
delivered at Elgin prices, it was de-
eided today that Chicago and Elgin
butter interests should combine 10
raise the market prices and force the
packers to cancel their contracts or
lose fortune. 1t is said that the
first move viii be made on june /
when butter will be placed at forty
cents a pound.
The dealers say that this vast
amount of butter in cold storage and
in the hands of the packers would
leave the market at their mercy in
the fall, when prices are expected to
rise.
THE dealers controlling the Elgtn
Butter Board and Quotation Commit
tee announced last night that they
would mark the price of butter at
81 per pound, if necessary, to make
the packers annul their contracts and
leave the market open. A federal in
yestigation is promised of the condi-
tons which led to the simultaneous
attack of the packers on the central
market for western butter at Omaha.
The butter involved is slightly be-
low the grade of No. 1 Elgin butter
and if purchased at the p ice of the
latter, a considerable loss to the
packers is expected.

GOVERNOR POWER
OVER STATE TROOPS
Law Does Not Restrict Ex-
eCutive'S Power.

Atlanta, Ca, May Ex-Governor
Brown has refused to discuss his
authority in ordering a company Of
the state militia from L:ndale to pro.
coed to the coal mines at Durham last
Wednesday night for the purpose Of
queiling a riot reported among Ia;
miners.
The governors action has been crit.
icised in certain quarters because Of
construction of the law to the eff.
feet that the governor should not ha u
ordered the troops into action except
upon request of the civil authorities
and never upon his own initiative
or the request of a citizen.
Adjutant General A. ]. Scott de-
clared that the governor is command
er-in-chiefs of the military and naval
forces of the state and he cited the
section of the military code, which
says "the governor shall have the
power, in cases of insurrection, inva-
sion, tumult, riot or breach of the
peace, or imminent danger thereof, to
order into the active service of the
state any part of the militia thereof
that he may deem proper"
This law does not restrict the gov
ernor's authority in calling out the
state troops, and even in the case of
a call for mtroops from an ycivil Off
GER, it is left to the discretion of the
governor as to whether tn esituation
demands such action. The mayor, the
sheriff and the city council might all
join in a unanimous request for troops
but the governor is authorized to deny
it unless the situation appears to him
sufficiently grave to warrant the or
dering out of troops.
In the case of the Durham mines
the request for troops was made by
a private citizen, and it happens in
this particular instance that the gov
ernor spent several hours in attempt
ing to get in commun cation with the
sheriff or some other officer at the
mines before ordering the troops at
Lindale to proceed to the scene of the
reported difficulty.
When it appeared that because Of
the isolation of the mines the governor
could not reach the officials he or
dered the troops to proceed there at
once.

NURSES on HORSEBACK TO

One OF the Most Impressive Features

New York Globe.}


1t is said that when Mr.. Roosevelt
welt comes to town the voluntee"
emergency service, whose offer to as
sist has been gratefully accepted by
the committee, viii have so or SO
women nurses on horseback to aid
In the relief that may be necessary.
They will be clad in khaki, and. we
are assured, Their ability to manage
horse will rival that of their ability
to care for the sick and wounded.
Such a spectacle is apt to impress
the public even more than did the
gre1. convention of Florence Night
ingale's Nurses" which was held in
this city last week. A woman on
horseback going to the relief of some
stricken onlooker will be more per-
suasiye than even the encomiums of q
Choate. It should have an effect sim
liar to that produced by English wo-
Wen nurses in England at the time
OF the war scare" a year ago.
Women nurses must have been on
haHd at big parades, but not in
Khaki and on horseback. At the time
OF Mr.. Taft's Inauguration they shiv-
cred at the relief stations along the
route of the parade bearing the rigors
OF the day with as much spirit and
hardness as did the doctors them
