have been a plot to dynamite the
house of Charles X. Henry, prom
inent capitalist and real estate opera.
tor of this city has just become known
here.
The plant consisted of six sticks
of dynamite, wrapped with about thir-
ty feet OF fuse. 1t was discovered by
a workman on Mr.. Henry's premises,
hidden in a tree about 500 feet dis
tant from the Henry residence. For
some reason the workman failed to
make known his discovery to Mr. Hen
ry before.

Why He Wouldn't Pay.

The conductor on Dorchester car
was very hot and tired and his car
was so crowded he had hard work col
lecting the fares; so when he came
along and saw a man standing on the
running board and little three-year-
old child occupying an end seat near
him, he said combatively: You'll
have to give me a fare for that little
girl"
I'm sorry" said the man calmly.
"but l refuse to do It,"
A heated argument followed, during
which the conductor demanded his
rights and the man calmly refused. At
last the latter said, with laugh: "One
reason why won't pay for the child
is that she is not mine and she is
not with me."-Boston Record.

History Of Red Cross Seal.


-Charity stamps" first used In
Boston In 1862 for the soldiers relief
funds during the Civil war, were the
original forerunners Of the Red Cross
Christmas seal. which will be used
this year to bring happiness and cheer
to millions. The Delaware Anu-Tu-
berculosis society in 1907 for the first
time in America made use OF stamp
for the purpose of getting revenue to
fight consumption. In hastily or
ganized campaign Of only three weeks
they realized $4,000. The next year.
1908, the American Red Cross con-
Quoted the first national tuberculosis
stamp campaign. From this sale 1885,
900 was realized for the ant-tubercu-
losis movement. In 1909. under many
adverse conditions, s25o.ooo was rea-
lized from these stamps. This year
the slogan Of the tuberculosis fighters
and the Red Cross is "A Million for
tuberculosis From Red Gross Seals
In 1910"

THAT OFFICIAL COUNT WILL
HAVE TO DECIDE SEATS.

New York.-Control OF the next
House of Representatives hinges upon
the result of the fall elections in thir-
teen districts, and the outcome is
likely to be so close in these that the
official count will be needed to decide.
This prediction is made by an eastern
magazine as a result of its conflden-
tial canvass of $4,000 of its life sub
scribers scattered IN every section OF
the United States.
Two years ago this magazine in the
same way predicted the election of
President Taft, it's poll of the states
agreeing absolutely with the official
result, excepting in Missouri which II
gave to Bryan.
The present poll was compiled from
the replies of $4,000 that answered
and presents what the publishers be
lieve 10 be a fairly accurate portrayal
of the sentiment in the country at
large.
Division Close.
The result of the poll indicates that
100 congressional districts are safely
Republican; 16S safely Democratic;
29 probably Republican; 21 probably
Democratic.
This being true, the two parties
would be tied with 1S9 each and on
the remaining thirteen districts would
hinge control of the House.
Colorado is given three Democratic
congressman and Wyoming goes into
the Republican column.

SUPPRESSION OF DEATH
OF COCHRAN IS PR0BED
Family of Former United States
JuriSt Incensed at Failure
of Officials to Notify

Friends of the family of Morris John
son Cochran, former federal court jurist
of Parker, Ariz., who died Monday night
in a room in the Hollenbeck, investi-
gated yesterday the cause of the sup
preston of news of Judge Cochran's
death until yesterday morning by the
coroner's office.
DR.. George w. Campbell, in the
presence of Deputy Coroner MacDon-
aid, and with the knowledge of Deputy
Coroner Fred Williams, conducted a
post mortem examination Tuesday
night at the undertaking parlors of
Peck & Chase.
Mrs Cochran arrived in Los An
geles Thursday and asked why it was
that a man as prominent should die in
a leading hotel without any notice of 1t
appearing in any of the Los Angeles
papers until four days afterward.
Coroner Hartwell said yesterday aft
ernoon that there was no reason that
news of the death should not have been
given out. He asserted that his depu-
ties, whom he had expected to make
public the news, neglected to do so.
He did not explain why no effort had
been made to notify any of Judge
Cochran's family or relatives.
Judge Cochran was former United
States land commissioner and was one
of the most prominent men in legal
circles in the west. His death was
caused by valvular disease of the
heart.
Funeral services were held yesterday
in the parlors of Peck & Chase. Burial
was in Rosedale cemetery. Only a few
intimate friends were present.

TONIGHT SEES FIRST
SHOW IN BAKERSFIELD
Special Correspondent.

BAKERSFIELD, June 24.-Nearly a
carload of people who will take part in
tonight's vaudeville show in Bakers
field left Los Angeles this morning for
this city.
Tonight will see the first performance
of the big two-night vaudeville offering
arranged in honor Of Mrs Clara Jack
son, who leads in The Herald's $4,000
voting contest.
The bill, as arranged, is of the great
est promise, inasmuch as every one of
the eight acts has been selected from
the biggest hits In various large Cities
and an "all-headline" program is as
sured. Some of the acts were obtained
from the east through Los Angeles,
some from Los Angeles and some from
San Francisco. Matalita, for instance,
scored a tremendous success recently
in San Francisco and again in Los An
geles Her Spanish dance is poem Of
motion.
Another fine act will be that Of John
D. Carroll, the famous English singing
comedian.
A pretentious offering will be that of
the Bolero trio, who present I'm
Musical Studio"
L. Nattkemper, in impersations, is a
certain hit. His work borders on the
marvellous.
One of the other sure hits is Addie
Davis, a dainty little soubdette, who
never fails to please.
Kingsbury and Garnett have an act
that always makes the most blase Of
theatergoers sit up and take notice.
Clever singing and other acts will
round out a bill that should fill the
Bakersfield opera house the first night,
and bring out the s. R. o. sign on the
second evening.
Bakersfield Is a loyal town, and in
this case should be so, and tickets to
the coming show are being sold rapidly.
Those who attend will not only have
the pleasure of having done duty,
but will get many times their moneys
worth in good, snappy vaudeville.
Mrs. Jackson has scored a wonderful
record this far, and this show offers
Bakersfield a chance to manifest it's
appreciation and make her final sue
cess certain, and in doing this have two
evenings of good, clean fun.

Municipal Affairs
HESITATE At SPENDING
100000 ON ONE PARK
Council Takes Under Amusement
Plans for Beautifying City
Breathing Spot

After listening to lengthy pleas from
the park board that an appropriation
of almost $4,000 be made by the coun-
Gil to complete the plans for perma-
nent park at the site of Central park,
from which all of the other city parks
will be modelled, the city council yes
terday took the matter of an appropr1a-
ton under advisement. 1t seemed to
be the sense of the council that the
park should be improved permanently,
but that the sum asked was altogether
too much, and that in view of the fact
that the city was in need of money Tor
what they considered more necessary
improvements, no action should be
taken.
III. w. O'Melveny of the park board
made an estimate of the probable cost
of the improvements submitted by for
mer Municipal Art Commissioners John
Parkinson, setting the figure at $4,000.
Judge Charles Silent of the board
pointed out to the council the necessity
for permanent improvements as OPP
posed to temporary construction work.
Temporary work on parks" said
Judge Silent. sis a useless expenditure
of money. Thousands of dollars have
been utterly wasted by this city in
patching parks here and there, while
were this money applied In one lump,
we would have park that would
withstand the ravages of time.
1--WE ask that you will tell us to go
on with the work that we have planned,
and that you will help us as far as you
are able. Then we will go out and
look for public spirited citizens who
will supply the necessary money to
make our plans reality"
what I object to-" interjected Coun-
Gilman Betkouski, SIS that while this
will be a beautiful park there will not
be bench within its confines A park
is essentially a breathing space for
people, a place where they may rest
and enjoy the beauties of the flowers
1 most .strenuously object to spending
any money on a spot that has no prac-
tical value as an accommodation to
the public"
Councilman Betkouski was assured
that benches would be provided for the
park. Mayor Alexander and Council-
man Andrews seemed to feel that per-
manent improvements were the proper
plan, but could not see how the amount
of money asked could be appropriated
at this time.

GROCERY FIRM TO BLAME
FOR DAMAGE TO AUTO

Judge N. P. Conrey of the superior
court held yesterday in the case of
Mac d. SNOWFALL and others against
William r. Brockway and Alfred w.
Brockway, that the defendants were
responsible for an accident that was
caused in an indirect way by their
team. The defendants are grocers of
Pasadena, and the complaint was that
their delivery boy had neglie emily
taken the brides off his horses when
embarrassing them before he unhitched
them from the wagon. AS a result the
team became unmanageable and ex-
cited the delivery team of the Pasadena
Ice company standing nearby. 1t ran
away and crashed into the SNOWFALL
automobile, damaging 1t to the extent
of $100O its owner claimed, but, accord
ing to the order of the court, only to
the value OF $3.50. This amount was
awarded.
