It was the dance which has been long anticipated, that given In honor of the retired oflVers of the company, and certainly the boys were at their best aa entertainers.

Hut It was tho unique surroundings which caught tlie eye of each and every one of the scores of dancers present. UHn the west wall of the ball room was arranged two score of knaiisacks and canteens, placed so as to form let ters which spelled "Comiiany Un derneath these, forming an Immense background, were stretched army blan kets with their strlted borders. At either side of the lettering artistic ros ettes were formed with caps, cartridge belts and bayonets, while bordering wero muskets strung to tho wall by sword streps. This Idea was carried out In other parts of the hall, while setting off the military trappings were evergreens and alm branches, giving to the whole an efTect most pleasing to tho eye. Old (ilory and its coloring wero in abundance, an immense nng falling In graceful folds over the door leading to the reception rooms.

In the center, under canopy of leaves, was located tlie Highland orchestra, which furnished music for tho dances, of which there were a-plenty, each more satisfying than the one before. Resides tho dancing, an Informal program waB rendered, speeches being made by tht guests of honor, Including Major F. C. Prescott, r.f Red-lands, Captain O. P.

Sbiat and Major W. C. Seccombe. while Jesslo L. Kel-ley, the company's mascot, played several piano solos and then an accompaniment for tho company's chorus, which rendered several of tho popular airs.

And the refreshments were of the best. Not the soldier's nard tack, but rather the best of sandwiches, coffee, friiltade and other things as good. The ex-otllcers In whose honor hint evening's dance was given, number: I. Major W. C.

H. a. lrmpr. tniurmoca and Iwm "We, the Jury, find the defendant, Lewis E. Chittenden, guilty of burglary in the first degree.

the jury, recommend the defendant to the mercy of the court." Such was the verdict, in two paragraphs, of the jury, In the trial of Lewis E. Chittenden, who has been on trial In Department Ono of tho Superior Court, since October 21. When Foremnn C. C. Clusker handed over the verdict nnd when Clerk Pfelffer read It aloud, Chittenden never be-trayd the least emotion.

His feminine friends from Ixis Angeles, who havo been In constant attendance at tho trial, did not break down and cry, hut their countenances lengthened considerably. The arguments tn the case began yesterday morning when District At torney Curtis opened for the prosecution. Attorney Charles L. Allison finished his argument for the defendant, In time for the noon adjournment Those who heard the defendant's attorney, declared that he made a magnificent effort In behalf of his client. In the afternoon R.

E. Bledsoe made the closing argument, on behalf of the prosecution. The Jury retired at 3:35 o'clock and the very first ballot, 11 fur conviction and ono for acquittal, was the surprising result. Mr. Ixigsdon was the Juror who found himself alone ith his opinion.

Seven ballots and much argument had not shaken thnt opinion and at 8 o'clock last evening the Jury announced that It desired to have some toRtlmony read. I The point under discussion was the question of the number of drinks that Chittenden had taken on tho night the safe In tho Hnrstow saloon was robbed, before he started up the track to look for that mineral claim. Ixigsdon was under the Impression that he had taken many drinks and was In no condition to walk, without considering the possibility of being able to rob a safe. Soon after tho Jury retired for the second time, tho members announced that they were ready with a ver- diet. At 8:50 they were admitted to the court room and the following members answered to the roll call: J.

S. Williams, M. Ixigsdon, C. Hansen, Frank Burleigh, C. C.

Clusker, William Humeman, C. Shields, A. Huddleston, C. B. Hughes, Thomas Gulloek, J.

H. Barton and A. C. Ruehle. The crime for which Chittenden has just been convicted, took place one night last April, In the town of Bar- ho I stow.

During the short space of 15 minutes between the going of the night bartender and the coming of the day man, in Shepard Wakefield's saloon, a burglar opened the safe door by working the combination. He took $500 in money, a number of time-checks, several watches and a revolver iiom the safe. Then he arranged some little wooden plugs, so that when the safe door was shut, tho wood would fall down Into the combination tumblers and prevent the opening of the safe for many hours, or until an expert could be summoned from Los Angeles. The next morning the revolver and several empty sacks were found near the banks ot the Mojave river. Chittenden had formerly worked In the saloon, and had Just arrived In the town on the day before the robbery, after an absence of several months.

He had always claimed that he was a safe expert and the officers felt justified In arresting Chittenden. He was bound over to the Superior Court but soon after being brought to the County Jail, was released through habeas corpus proceedings. Chittenden then began a suit against L. C. Currier, Justice of the Peace at Harstow, and others, for damages to the amount of $10,000 for false Imprisonment.

Pending the suit he went to Ixis Angeles. Sheriff Rouse placed detectives on Chittenden's trail with the result that some evidence ot the Hnrstow robbery wos found and Chittenden was again arrested. The penalty for burglary In tho first degree has a life limit, but It will probably be some time before ho Is Bent north, as it Is the Intention to apply for a new trial. The case was tried before Judge Noyes of H. L.

Teck, the flour and grain merchant, who caught Edward Zlegler In the act of throwing a lighted cigar through a hole In the window of his grain warehouse, swore to a complaint charging Zlegler with arson yester-day. The complaint was Issued by District Attorney Curtis and Zlegler was transferred from the city to the tounty Jail, to await arraignment be fore Justice Thomas. It is claimed by some that Zlegler is flighty in mind and not responsible. Additional statements made by Mr. Peck and A.

Johnson, who were watch ing in the store room near by; will serve to make it difficult for Zlegler to escape the charge of Intentionally throwing the cigar Into the broken window. The otienlng 1b well above the sidewalk, and It was necessary for him to throw the stub at some eleva tlon. In order to hit the aperture.
