DECISION WAS UNANIMOUS _— es SPECIAL DETAIL OF POLICE TO BE SENT TO STOP IT. Manager of the Don Carlos Bull Fight- ers Was Confident Friday Night That the Contest Would Take Place. “No bull fight at the Fair Grounds Sun- day" was the positive ultimatum issued by the Board of Police Commissioners at a special meeting called for the purpose of passing on this question Saturday morn- ing. In accordance with the board’s decision Chief of Police Kiely was instructed to “take every precaution” bull fight is prohibited. The board further requested that a special | Getail of police be sent to the Fair Grounds | to enforce the order. Richard Norris, manager of Don Carlos Marenos’ bull fighters, was very confident Friday night that he would be able to carry out Sunday's program. His announcement to that effect was un- or janes “If it doesn't come off,” he “the peo e Eg get their monay police stationed at the gates to see Ay everybody is treated fairly. But again 1 say the exhibition will take place as scheduled.’ All the members of the poticé board with the exception of President Hawes were present at Baturday’s meeting\and the de- cision not to permit the fight\was unani- mous. No citizens appeared before the boar, and the only protest received was that from the Golden Chain Humane Society through its attorney, Rozier Meigs.

Patton, mayor of Evanston, and a prominent board of trade operator, today brought to a suc- cessful close the corner in May oats which has dominated the oats market since early last fall. The profits credited to Mr. Pat- ten are estimated at $1,000,900. About the time prices in corn began to mount skywards last year on account of the crop shortage, it was learned that some- one was taking in all the May oats offered on the Chicago market and _e elsewhere. Prices bégun to advance steadily and around 37c and Mr. Patten was trying to run a corner. On the big fiurry on the Chicago board last december, May oats were pushed to 47%c. Since that time re- actions occurred and when delivery day came this month many speculators thought the bottom had fallen out of \the corner. It was said Mr. Patten had _— 10,000,000 bushels to 12,000,000 bushels of the May op- tions. Everything that was offered to him 'on deliveries he took and in turn sold prac- 'tically all the contract stocks to shippers F t good inducements. This left nothing for the shorts to acquire with which to set-| It _ and prices accordingly were pushed up| »y Mr. Patten personally in the pit to- ea May oats closed yesterday at 43%c. There was a little flurry of excitement at the close, but the corner did not affeot the other options. RAIN MAY BALK BOTANISTS Shaw’s Garden.

NO NEW. INDICTMENTS RETURNED TODA’ The April grandjury made its final report to Judge Walter B. Deuglas this after- noon. The indictments against Fred Zie- genhein, Charles F. Kelly, Charles L. Ger- aghty and Louis Schnell, who were arrest- ed on bench warrants and released on bond. were returned into court. No new bench warrants were issued. The grandjury's report in full follcews: THE REPORT Hon. Walter B. Douglas, Judgt Circuit Court, Division No. 8: The April Grand- jury beg leave to submit the following re- port: MUNICIPAL CORRUPTION. We have examined many witnesses on the subject of municipal corruption. The flagrant bribery in the Municipal Assem- bly that has flourished without hindrance s0 long, has been made conspicuous by the report of our predecessors and in court proceedings. | It would seem impossible to paint the picture in darker colors, and yet the facts brought out before us have deepened the tones and present an even more infamous blackness. In the course of our inquiry we have heard from the lips of witnesses the as- tounding story of corruption. The _ vil- lainous venality among the sworn officers and public servants of our city should awaken every god ciizen to the urgent attention to public affairs. Mur purpose in this report shall be to state the facts candidly in order that the public conscience may be thoroughly aroused to the awful plight into which the city has been plunged, with the hope that united and heroic effort may bring about a remedy and change in these condi- tions. It not seem possibit that men of instinets, prurient desires and corrupt mo- tives. could. be elected to honorable and responsible offices affecting the interests and largely the destinies of a great mu- nicipality, yet such have long infested our city in the capacity of legislators. THE SUBURBAN DEAL. Rumors have been current for years as to bribery In the Municipal Assembly in connection with the passage of ordinances. Grandjuries have investigated in times gone by, without result, until many had came to believe the reports untrue. Lmerely as a means The inquiries of a late grandjury, how- | evr, brought to light one of the mox* ¢ gantic bribery schemes ever uncovored. A street railway company in an effort to secure a franchise from the Muniviral As- | sembly had been c»ymrvllied to put up 3$75.,- 000 for the House of Delegtaes, which | money was deposited in a safe deposit | box of a trust compiny, one key eng hela by the agent of the railway and the | other key by a member of the House of | Delegates representing the combine in that bcdy, which amount was to be paid to tik mombers of the combine upon the passage of the ordinance. There was also placed in a safe Cepusit box in another trust company the sum of $60,000 to go to the City Council upen the passage of the prop»sel measure, there being likewise two x-eys to this box, one held by the representative of the rail- road and.the other by the ugent of the combine in the City Counsci!. By prompt and enérgetic action this cor- ruption fund of $135,000 was caught between the lines. and is now held subject to the orders of court as evidence. A number of indictments grew out of this attempted pur- chase of a franchise. Two of the defendants have become fugi- tives from justice, forfeiting large bonds, and are now exiled in a foreign land. Two others have been brought: to trial, each | case resulting in a conviction, one being | given three years in the penitentiary and | the other two ycara4.- Another of the defendants is still at large | in an allen country where, from present in- dications, he will abide for awhile. In the trials the bribe money was pfo- duced in court, leaving no doubt as to the shocking and startling official debauchery that has been going on. CENTRAL TRACTION STEAL. It has developed further that on an- CHARGES IN INDICTMENTS 45 S AGAINST. Re FRED W. ZIEGENHEIN AND OTHER The exact charges against Fred W. Zie- genhein, Charles F. Kelly, Charles L. Ger- aghty and Louis Schnell, indicted by the grandjury last Tuesday and Wednesday( were made public Saturday bythe return- ing into court of the indietments against them. Against Ziegenhein, who was secretary to his father, former Mayor Zeigenhetn, it Is alleged that he accepted on February 14, 1901, a bribe of $35 from Anthony Kohn, a tallor at 209 North Broadway, for a per- mit to build a show window projecting 10% inches over the building line. It is charged that on March 18, 11, he accepted $35 from Julius Well of 11 North Broadway for the privilege of building a show window protruding 12 Inches over the building line. William F. Newman of 807 Pine is named as the third person from whom money was accepted for a permit, $25 being the armmoun and 18 inches he projection over the builld- ing line. February 4 is he date named. On March 15, It is charged, $75 was ac- cepted from F. L. Deck for permission to excavate beneath the pavement at Sixth and Pine streets. Bribery is the charge made under each ef the four allegations. In connection with the Deck case, obtaining money under false pretenses is charged, The indictment declares that Kelly feloniously used the name of John J. Ma- et ee el —_~ common among members of the Assembly and other officials of our city. It seems to have been the highest aim of some officials to rob the city whenever op- portunity offered. They.have regarded of making «4 ItveTinood easier than they could in private life, "and have administered the trust reposed in them | for private gain, and not for public good. ZEIGENHEIN CASE. It is in evidence before us that a former collector of the city of St. Louis, who was afterwards mayor, received interest on public funds for his own private account. The sum so received was something over $313,000, which with interest to ‘date would amount to about $20,000. Any possible criminal charge arising out of this conduct has been barred by the statute of limitations, which, un- fortunately, is three years. A civil action to recover the money, however, can still be brought, and we under- ‘stand will be instituted. (Former Mayor Henry “Zeigenhein was city collector two terms. In an interview today with the Post-Dispatch Zeigenhein admits he is the man referred to.—Ed. Post- Dispatch.) FRED ZIEGENHEIN’S CASE. The secretary of the late mayor made a practice of selling permits and of ex- torting money for remittances of fines in criminal cases. A permit to change the front of 4 building, which, if proper to be grant- ed at all, one is entitled to as a matter of right, could, as a rule, not be ob- tained through this official except upon the payment to him of from $25.00 to $75.00 as a gratuity or reward. A number of instances of such exac- tions were shown us, the money going, not into the coffers of the city, but into the bulging pockets of the mayor’s sec- retary, or his accessories. A permit to place a switch could only be had upon the payment of $300.00 to a notorious grafter, a city employe and frequenter of the office of the may- enoltitie Bt office | | her, and collected for the work under tl name of Maher.

About coffee drinking, Dr. Hewet savs. “I have the best of reasons for naming coffee as among the most dan- gerous of slow poisons. My own per- sonal experience outside of the general experience gained by my practice has taught the truth, : At about 16 I became a member of a young people's society whose pledge barred the use of all intoxicants, tobac- co. tea and coffee, until the age of 21. I kept my pledge and early temperate hab- its were formed... Up to about my thir- tieth year I was an athlete; no one had better health or spirits. A short time after passing thirty I be- gan the use of coftee at breakfast with an occasional cup at evening parties. The first symptoms of ill health I re- member came soon and later, sore mouth and stomach trouble. Finally well marked dyspepsia supervened. My bowels sympathized, of course, also my nervous system became impaired. Dizzi- | ness attacked me, and tremulant hands ‘rendered writing exceedingly My diet had to be restricted. Experienced | medical advisors forbade all fruits. | Several attacks of gastritis troubled me and bowel complaint became quite fre- quent. The shadow of melancholia menaced me and caused me to wonder why a man of my lineage, strength and endurance and temperate habits should be thus afflicted. Eminent specialists named it ‘miasm.’ ‘others as noted said, ‘microbes.’ I now say, ‘coffee arabica.” Why? Because for | : Former Governor of Oregon Succumbed the first thirty years I did not drink cof- fee and enjoyed good health, the second thirty years coffee dtinking became a habit and illness more than kept pags with the indulgence.

For the first three days of the change I felt, keenly, the loss of the stimulant, after that the nutrient quality of the drink more than compen: *sated the deprivation, and an astonishing change came in recurring hunger three times daily; could scarcely wait for meals, a sensation I had not\had for more than thirty years.

An ordinance is pending in the Chicago City Council providing ' for a return of fares to all street car passengers who may be Gelayed more than 10 minutes because-of breakdowns on the traction lines. The press and public are in favor of the passage - @f the ordinance “Tt ts not an.uncommon occurrence for passengers on St. Louis Street cars to be delayed for more than 10 minutes by break- downs. Sometimes, indeed, cars are stopped for more than half '@n hour. Business men lose valuable time, miss important en- ~ gagements, and employes run the risk of fines for tardiness tn | Peaching their work. In such cases, the street railways, whether fault is theirs or not, do not offer the delayed passengers . nefors, or coupons good for a ride at another time, or to re- rm the unearned fare. It might be a hardship In some cases for street railways to re- Te. nd fares where breakdowns were caused by outside accidents OF weather conditions. But it is a well-understood principle that oe money must be returned on a contract if that contract cannot be “a J out. A law embodying this principle in the case of de- of street cars might have a good effect in reducing delays be . ; stoppages. Reasonable time should be given to overcome e ‘the obstacles causing the stoppage, and 10 minutes appears to be at sufficient. Certainly. the loss in these cases ought not to rest - ‘entirely on the traveling public. ta ‘ye ’ é os 5 i i +? = matter of perma- tad a ra _— — ~~ r -. -». o> ve + a AN the testimony against the army | what is to be done about it?

The April grandjurors went a etep further and brought to the bar of justice men whose records show that, if not openly, they have indirectly used their official positions to advance their own per- sonal interests. Continuing the inquiry into municipal] scandals instituted by the December grand- jury and resumed by the February body. the April grandjurors have gone a step further and brought to the bar of justice men whose records show that, if not openly they have indirectly used their official po- Jj sitions to advance their own persona! in- terests. Repeatediy the Post-Dispatch has called attention to the conduct of faithless pub- lic servants. Grandjuries would meet and deliberate on the facts unearthed: occasionally indict. ments were procured, only to be quashed on some legal technicality, and the great- est boodling deal in the history of St. Louls —the granting of the Central Traction franchise—was allowed to die without pros- ecution of officials who betrayed their trust and sold themselves for money. Unaided, the Post-Dispatch fought the Central Traction bill and exposed the cor- rupt methods used to secure its passage. A grandjury took up the investigation, but nothing was done. EVIDENCE SUSTAINED Four years later—in January last—the grandjury went into every phase of this scandal and the report of the succeeding body sustained the evidence the Post-Dis- patch had adduced. But the statute of limitations had barred prosecution of the offenders, with one ex- ception—Robert M. Snyder of Kansas City, who, it is held, is not subject to this pro- vision, beceuse of having been a resident of New York at that time. Commenting on the Central Traction bill, the April grandjury said: “Convincing documentary evidence was unearthed proving that the sum of $146,- 000 was placed in escrow in a bank in this city to be paid to the members of the Mu- nicipal Assembly of St. Louis upon the pas- sage of a valuable franchise ordinance. “This ordinance failed and a second bill was introduced, upon the passage of which the sum of about $250,000 was distributed among its members. “After the passage of this ordinance the franchise was sold for $1,250,000. The city realized nothing whatever for this fran- chise. RESULT DISAPPOINTING. “We regret that the grandjury of three years ago, which made a fruitless investi- gation of the municipal scandal, was un- able to secure the evidence which we found so readti7¥and which could have been more easily obtained at that time. “We cannot but believe that if the offi- cers whose duty it was at that time to pre- nare and present matters of this kind to the indicting body had discharged their duty faithfully and vigorously the result would have been different. “No city,” continued the April body, ‘‘has been so completely at the mercy of faith- less public servants. No municipal corpo- ration has ever had its most valuable fran- chises so recklessly and scandalously dis- posed of for a consideration which found its way not to the city treasury, but into the itching palms of public pliferers."’ When the Central bill was up for con- sideration, the most popular man in the halls of the St. Louls Municipal Assembly was Robert N. Snyder. Mr. Snyder’s friends among the legis- lators boasted of his great generosity, and linked with him as lobbyist for the bill was George J. Kobusch, president of the St. Louls Car Co. Kobusch was called upon to testify before the grandjury in relation to Central Traction matters. As a result of the testimony he gave he ‘was indicted for perjury and his trial is now pending. THE SUBURBAN DEAL The Suburban franchise deal, though on a smaller scale financially, involved more prominent influences to father its passage than any ordinance ever presented for con- sideration. The Suburban Railroad Co., accord'ng to the testimony of Charles H. ‘‘urner given at the Meysenburg trial, employed a legislative agent to see that $135,000 was paid for the valuable franchise privileges asked. “Phillip Stock was our (meaning the Suburban Railway Co.) legislative agent,” testified Turner. Stock, who is the secretary of the St. Louls Brewing Co., and accounted wealthy, acknowledged the title on the witness stand. The (ary of this disgraceful municipal chapter is fresh in the public mind. Information reached Circuit Attorney Folk trata eum of money had been placed in sifety deposit vaults at the Mississippi Valle an ! incom Trust companies for dis- trib: .on ong members of the Municipal AS «a abl, Ore key.

In parry with Circuit Attorney Folk, ror Lee and two other members of the grandjury visited the trust companies. In the deposit boxes they found $135,000 and, with this confirmation of the report that the Suburban Railroad Co. had placed that amount there for distribution among the members of the assembly in case the bill passed, the grandjury and Mr. Folk proceeded to probe the matter to the bot- tom. Acting on the advice of attorneys, Presi- dent Charles H. Turner of the Suburban Rilway Co., and Philip Stock, his “‘legis- tive agent,”’ appeared before the grandjury and related the details of the entire trans- action. They stated that the money was placed there In accordance with an arrangement made by which the company was to have one key to the boxes and Councilman Kratz and Delegate Murrell the other key to one of the boxes each, the money to re- main there until the bill was passed. The bill passed the Council - =_— = Publicity Given by the Post-Dispeteh to Municipal Corruption Caused Grandjury Investigations and the Indictment of Offenders. ¢ ’ é “"; : sembly that brought the knowledge of the fund's existence to Mr. Folk’s ears. THREE INDICTMENTS. Within a week after the grandjury took up the investigation of the affair it returned indictments against Murrell, Kratz and Emil A. Meysenburg, another former mem- ber of the Council. Meysenburg was & mem- ber of the railroad committee which re- ported the bill favorably. Kratz was one of the councilmen who voted for the bill's passage. Murrell, as a member of the House, had no opportunity to vote on the bill. The bench warrants were served on Mur- rell, Kratz and Meysenburg Monday, Janu- ary 27. Each of these men was _ indicted for bribery. Bribery indictments were also found within the next few days against Ellis Wainwright and Henry Nicolaus and perjury indictments against Julius Lehmann and Harry A. Faulkner. Wainwright and Nicolaus are directors the Suburban Railroad. Their indict- ment resulted from testimony before the grandjury that they jointly with President Turner signed the note for $135,000 on which the money deposited In the boxes was se- cured from a S8t. Louis bank. Wainwright was in Egypt at the time and has not since returned. Nicolaus, who is a brewery proprietor, admitted signing the note, but declared his ignorance of the purpose for which it was to be used. Faulkner is a member of the present House of Delegates and Lehmann a former member. They were indicted because they told the grandjury they knew nothing about the existence of this $135,000 fund, after the grandjury believed, from other evidence, that they did know about it. INVESTIGATION CONTINUED. W. H. Lee was foreman of this grand- jury, which made its report to Judge Ho- ratio D. Wood Feb. 2. It recommended fur- ther investigation into municipal corrup- tion. The February grandjury, impaneled a few days later, was specially chargea by Judge O'Neill Ryan, who succeeded Judge Wood in charge of one of the crim- inal divisions of the Circuit Court, to pur- sue this line of invesigation. William B. Dean was chosen foreman. The first indictments resulted from in- vestigations of the Suburban bill intro- duced in the Council in October, 1900, and passed by the Council Feb. 8, 1901. The Fébruary grandjury went back far- ther, and took up the passage of the Cen- tral Traction bill over the mayor's veto in April, 1898. It found that money had been freely used to secure the passage of this bill, also a street railway measure of which the St. Louis Transit Co. was ult!- mately the beneficiary. As the statute of limitations in Missouri is three years, any offense in connection therewith was out- lawed as to persons who had continued their residence in Missouri continuously In the Interim. Robert M. Snyder of Kansas City, one of the promoters of the Central Traction bill, had lived tn New York a large por- tion of the time intervening, and the grand- jury indicted him on a charge of bribery. The indictment declared that he had bribed members of the Municipal Assembly, with- out specifying individuals. The bench war- rant was issued March 15. Snyder was in New York at the time, but came to St. Louls and gave bond. George J. Kebusch, the wealthy presi- dent of a St. Louls car manufacturing com- pany, was indicted for perjury in connec- tion with the Central Traction investiga- tion. He is said to have been one of the lobbyists of the traction bill, but denied to the grandjury having certain knowledge that from other evidence it believed he had. BUTLER INDICTED. Ed Butler was indicted by this grandjury a few days later on a charge of attempted bribery. His indictment resulted from in- vestigations into the passage of the ‘‘gar- bage bill’ by the present Assembly. It was charged against Butler that he offered Dr. H. N. Chapman of the board of health a ““present’’ of $2500 and that he also attempt- ed to stuff money inside the doctor's vest. It was further alleged that Butler had of- fered Dr. Albert Merrell, the other medical member of the board of health, a similar *““present."’ This evidence was presented to the pub- lic by the Post-Dispatch on Feb. 16 in an interview with Dr. Chapman, in which the doctor said Butler had offered him $2500 as a “present.”” Dr. Chapman declined the offer. Butler had been a power t!n St. Louis poll- tics for 30 years. He claimed to be the boss of the local Democracy. His claim was frequently attested at elections. He scoffed at the idea that anybody could or would connect him with bribery, and he boasted that he delivered the ‘“‘goods”’ to corporations for fees. In an interview with the Post-Dispatch Jan. 28 he said among other things: “Two years ago the Suburban officials asked me if I couldn't help the Suburban road-get through the bill for a franchise extending its tracks over a large part of the city that it does not reach. I said I thought I could. BUTLER’S TERMS ACCEPTED. “ “What will it cost?’ he asked. “It will take $145,000." I told him. “There were several talks about the mat- ter. Bome of the Suburban people thought $100,000 was enough, but finally my terms were accepted. “I was to have had a certain fee even if I had failed to pass the bill. What that was I will not say now, as the entire mat- ter was taken out of my hands, but the figures were unlucky. “IT agreed for a fee of $145,000 to pass the bill. And there would not have been any safe deposit box to take care of the monmey if I had handled the matter. “I don't do business that way. “I get the fee, and in 6 days the legisia- tion wanted is delivered.” John H. Becker, holding the position of city factory inspector, was indicted on the charge of attempted bribery. The indict- ment accused him of attempting to in- fluence by means of money the jury com- 7 ‘ - ‘atin 9 : .. ; " oem vie ¢ = ae a ip nl oe oe ae i 4 os 3 a aoe? : - : we ‘we ° 3» 2 2 igs > & J 2 M . a ee a te Kar » eS 4 F Pr edt ibe tO hated ™ Z . ¥ » .

The body of Hugo Bothig of Berlin, Ger- many, who died fram the effects of heat in St. Louis July 5, 1901, was given Chris- tian burial Thursday by M. H. Alexander, the undertaker of 2939 Olive street, who held the body 11 months awaiting advice from Bothig’s relatives. Mr. Alexander interred the remains in the new Pickett cemetery at his own ex- pense. He had held the body since last July, at the request of the coroner, who expected that Bothig’s wealthy sister in Berlin would order the corpse shipped to Germany for burial. The sister wrote several letters to Mr. Alexander. but she was not certain that the body he held was that of her brother, and for that reason never commissivuned the undertaker to dispose of it. Three electricians from Rochester, N. Y., who had known Bothig well, came to St. Louis and identified the body. The body was mummified by the embalm- ing process and was never placed on ice during the period. BUSINESS NOTICE.

The ordinance will call for an appropria- tion for the erection of three bathhouses. It is Mr. Whyte's opinion, however, that not more than one of them can be finished this summer. Mr. Whyte has been a champion of the bathhouse plan since he became harbor commissioner, and his action in having the ordinance drafted is the direct sequel of City Counsellor Bates’ opinion that a por- tion of the money in the harbor fund might be used for that purpose. Dining cars are now being operated on the Iron Mountain noute. They are lighted by electricity and cooled by electric fans, and the Pullman service is similarly equipped.

BOER ENVOYS ‘They Must Reach Decision | Saturday Night. OR THE WAR WILL CONTINUE ———$——— ENGLAND, HOPEFUL, PREPARES FOR BIG CELEBRATION. LONDON, May 21—Peace negotiations must reach a conclusion tonight. England has sent its ultimatum to the Boers and demands an answer by midnight. This was the government's plan when Mr. Balfour announced he would communicate the progress of peace negotiations to the House of Commons Monday. If a definite announcement of peace is made, as expected, Monday night will* bid fair to riva] the celebration which occurred when the relief of Mafeking was officially announced in May, 1990. Throughout London arrangements have already been made for numerous peace din- ners. he aristocracy will ‘‘maffick’’ on no small scale, and doubtless the denizens of Whitechapel and the various West End quarters will invade the Strand and other thoroughfares with their wild exultation. For Monday afternoon every seat in the House of Commons is already pre-empted. If the statement of the government leader, A. J. Balfour, comes up to expectations, ligte will be done in the United Kingdom that day except exultation over the end of the war that has tried the spirit of the mation to the uttermost. - Already the wiseacres are saying that Lord Kitchener will be made an earl and receive the thanks of Parliament, accom- panied by a substantial grant of money. One of the curious features of the war Iis the remarkable way in which Lord Kitchen- er has deepened the awesome respect, akin to fear. with which the British nation re- gards him and his laconic reports, and his utterly independent prosecution of the cam- paign in South Africa has heightened his military reputation to such an extent that he has actually become a god to the aver- age man in the street. Yet he its universally admitted to have next to nothing in common with his coun- trymen or their government. As Lord Kitchener's star has ascended, .o has Lord Roberts’ declined. The genial optimism of the old fighter, who is now commander-in-chief, grates so bitterly upon a people severely overtaxed for the war which Lord Roberts so long ago declared finished that the spontaneous popularity which made him the hero of the jubilee procession, could never be repeated at the coronation. _ Indeed, it is more likely to be transformed into a hostile demonstration, in which Gen. Buller’s name may be greeted with cheers. However, peace is undoubtedly the ques- tion of the hour and Lord Kitchener is once more the man of the moment. Lord Milner may or may not have played an important part in the opentons assign to the former sirdar of the “eyptian forces the bringing about of the present negotiations. This feeling is by no means confined to outsiders. Great financia] magnates whose informa- tion regarding the conditions tn South Af- rica has often been better than the govern- ment's, and those whose interests there are almost as great as the empire’s, declare that Lord Kitchener is the savior of his country. $1.50 Jefferson City and Return, $1.50 Via M., K. & T.

The chief, wearieg after a long and Kratz- less day, had caken a stroll about the plaza before retiring. The senoritas who strolled about while the band and the fountain played were good -to look upon, and Chief Desmond, who is a_ bachelor, carried the image of one of the comely maids in his mind as he sought his hotel. In his dreams he sought the spot beneath the senoritas’s window, mandolin in hand, and commenced to play and sing. This was too great a contradiction, even for a dream, and Desmond awoke to find that he was not the serenader, but the serenaded. A mandolin was thrumming and 4 male voice ascended through the moonlight. The chief started to the window. Then he remembered that plots against him were on foot. He paused, and then with a new courage he advanced to the window and thrust out his head. The music stopped. The young man be- low was silent. Then another head ap- peared at a lower window, and a shower of roses commenced to fall around the mandolin player.
