others were somewhat damaged.

Union-Journal : The little live-vear-old
daughter of I'homas
Dorricott met with quite a serious
accident on the Fourth, which at
first was feared would result in
the loss of eight in the right eye.
The little one waa playing about
the yard, where a number of older
children were eetting olf fire
crackers, when by s uiie misad
venture a tire-cracker struck her
in the right eye ju t as it exploded
burning her cheek and eyebrows
and lashes, and for a time blind
ing her completely. Dr. X. G.
Blalock was called, and reports
that the eye will probably be
saved.

CiiK-Aio, July y. Judge Blod
gett decided the Pluebe Cousins'
cae this morning by rendering
a sweeping decision against tne
ex-secretary of the board of lady
managers of the world's fair. The
court held in short that Miss
Couzins is out of office for eood.
and cannot get back. The care
was decided on exceptions made
by Miss Cousins to the answer
tiled to her bill for an injunction
to restrain the defendants from
ousting her from office. The court
held the board of managers were
created by the national commis
sion and received its powers from
that body. These powers extend ad
to the executive committee of the
board of lady managers and it bad
full power to act, inasmuch as con
gress had not provided for con
tinuous sessions of the board of
lady managers which had to dele
gate its powers to a committee.
The committee, the court held,
was in fact the board itself. The
court (hereupon denied the injunc
tion as prayed for.

Until Next
San Diego, July 9. Judge
Campbell, assistant United States
district attorney, arrived last night
to confer with Marshal Gard and
the officers of the Charleston. He
stated the papers in the libel suit
were filed yesterday, but the trial
could not be held until September.
Court h d adjourned for the term,
and Judkie Rosa was going to San
Francisco to hold court for Judge
Hoffman. In regard to the
Data's offense being bailable,
Judge Campbell said of course her
owners would be permitted to give
bonds for the return of the vessel
and bhe would be allowed to de
part. The bonds would neces
sarily be much greater than the
v hie of the vessel. It is now
stated the rumor of a plot on the
part of the Data's officers to take
the vessel out of pert last night,
is disproved by the fact that the
vessel i in no condition to leave,
her machinery having been taken
to pieces, her boiler being over
hauled and the caps on the cylin
der heads have been removed.
The Charleston !ies w ithin a few
hundred yards of her. Excureion
tiaids are running from all parts
of Southern California bringing
people to see the vessels.
