Homeless.

Doctor Clark stated that he was GER
tain that the Queen IS Hospital would
not accept her and there was no other
institution except the insane asylum
where she could be sent. There was no
place at the hotels for her, for they
were all crowded; the hospital, accord
ing to one of the doctors, would not
receive her; she had no friends here,
and to the unfortunate woman the in
sane asylum remained the only refuge
from the humiliation afforded her by
boys who had Knocked her on the street,
the men who examined her coldly at
the police station and the DRINKS and
thugs there who leered at her, afflicted
as she was with one of the most pitt
able diseases of mankind.
Therefore she was sent to the insane
asylum by commitment papers signed
by Judge Andrade in the afternoon.
While the associations of this place are
no more pleasant than those of the Jail,
she could have privacy, quietude and
proper medical attendance. There was
a doubt in the doctors mind when they
sent her there as to whether she was
out of her mind or not, but they had
no other alternative.
To Be Returned.
She has return trip ticket to the
Coast ON the same vessel that she came
out on, and it is the plan to have her
paroled at the time the vessel sails
next Wednesday and bring her back
to the Coast. The Oceanic company will
probably be responsible for her and
see that she is placed in proper hands
upon her arrival in San Francisco.
An examination of her effects which
had been left on the Alameda revealed
the following note: eff l meet with
an accident, wire Mr. Eli Cope, S45
North Orange Grove Avenue, Pasadena,
Calf" A cablegrsm was sent to him
at once. Just before leaving the vessel
she wrote letter addressed to Frank
Moore, 800 North Fairbanks Avenue,
Pasadena, but the letter was never
mailed. 1t was opened and read yes
terday and its contents are reported
to indicate nothing whatever of an I'M
sound mind. 1t described her trip, said
that she was feeling better and con-
tanned an appreciation of the efforts to
the ships officers to make her comfort

TO-DAY IN HISTORY.
George Ills Ambassador of Peace--Dec. 10.

On December IS. 1918. there died in
Bath, England, David Hartley. who was
selected by his sovereign, George III. TO
make a peace treaty with the United
States. The conduct Of George III toward
the American colonies even when they
had thrown OFF his authority. and sub
dued his armies, was marked by a petty
bitterness. as well as a disregard Of their
rights
Even when Franklin suggested to the
ministry that peace was inevitable, the
King would not permit the negotiations
to begin in the usual way, but was bent
on choosing as aegotiators men who had
little or no political standing or connec-
ton with the government
During the last few years of the Rev
olution he sought a number of times to
seduee Benjamin Franklin from his 10y
atty to his country by making over
lures TO him through his friends Though
the King believed Franklin made hatred
Of this country the constant object OF
his mind, yet he thought it, in his own
words, proper to keep open channel
Of intercourse with that insidiOus man"
For this reason messengers without APP
parent authority had visited Franklin in
Paris. and laid before him fattering pros
poets of preferment if he would favor a
reconciliation between England and the
United States
England desired to "avenge the faith
less and insolent conduct of France"
and il could only be done by first break
ing her alliance with America. Frank
lin, as Minister to France, had formed
that alliance, and he stood firmly in sup
port of it. An the Establishments o: the
British ministry made no impression on
him. The only proposal he. made or
would entertain was the proposal Of in
dependence for the United States.
When England was forced at last to
negotiate, she did so in a characteristic
manner She sent no minister, no person
OF rank or influence. but selected Richard
Oswald TO conduct the first negotiations,
and next David Hartley to sframe the
final treaty.
Hartley was an amiabie, scholarly man.

Hackensack. n. J., Dec. 1S-John H.
Demarest, one OF the self-eonfessed gam

from the consistory of that church, IN
able longer to withstand the pleading of
his pastor. Rev Abram Duryea, and
members of the consistory.
Demarest would not attend the confer

because he did not want to be in room

deacon like a father Then Demarest
weakened.
The pastor was not so successful with
Roscoe. The latter is becoming more
defiant every day. and the feeling
against him in the little town is beeom-
ing more and more intense. His attempt
TO drag others into the trouble is not
well received. Not only did he again re-
fuse to resign last night. bat he went a
bit further and told Pastor Duryea and
Elder Joseph Weston that, even though
