SACRAMENTO, Jan. 31. The committee of the Assembly appointed to investigate the charges made against Judge Torrance San Diego Co. met Monday. Chairman Weyand stated afterward that the committee will report to the Assembly and leave it to the House to decide what the next move shall be.

It is understood th committee will ask permission to go to San Diego and take evidence. Secretary of State Curry appeared before the committee and denied that he had in any way tried to influence members of the Legislature in favor of Judge Torrance. Cleveland did not submit to the Assembly the allegations against Judge Smith of Santa Cruz Co. because certain leading Republicans in that county think the charges are not serious enough to warrant impeachment proceedings. Cleveland is now trying to secure the selection of an unofficial committee of legal Assemblymen to pas3 upon the question of whether or not the specifications are such as would justify the filing of charges against Judge Smith with the Assembly.

CHICAGO, Jan. 31. What is said to be the first statue erected In honor of a woman physician in the United States has been unveiled in Fuller-ton Memorial Hall at the Art Institute, when the friends of the late Dr. Mary Harris Thompson presented a of securing work at men's wages with which she might support her babe and mother, Mrs. Omer F.

Sweigert of Waterloo, has been playing an unique role in Holt county and at O'Neil, Neb. Working on ranches in Western Nebraska as a full-Hedged cowboy, pitching hay alongside the huskiest fellow, attending neighborhood dancing parties as an attractive beau and making love to the young women of the community for the sake of carrying out her masquerade in each de- tail, Mrs. Sweigert was chagrined to a degree when, upon rumors that her features were too fine for any man, the authorities investigated her story and wrung from her the confession of her true sex. Deserted by her husband, Mrs Sweigert declares that she was unable to sustain the babe that he left, and her aged mother, at woman's wages. Accordingly she came West, got work readily at good pay, earned a team and a wagon, and wa3 rapidly acquiring all of the habits that are known to man.

She wa3 a good fellow among the other cow punchers on the ranch, could shoot as well as the average man and rope horseback with perfect ease. When Christmas came, the disguised woman came to town, secured work in the Dewey Hotel as cook and roomed with an oldtime friend, Jack Nance. The new cook was a winner with the dining-room maids, and was engaged to be married to one of them. Mrs. Sweigert has agreed to leave town, and Nance mysteriously disappeared when he suspected that the game was up.

TO ABOLISH FISH SEASON. SALEM, Jan. 31. A bill has been introduced in the Legislature to abolish the closed season for salmon trout. Under the present law, catching of these trout is prohibited, except in tidewater, during the months from November to February, inclusive.

The ground for objection to a closed season Is that the salmon trout are said to eat salmon roe, and to hinder propagation of the salmon, which is Oregon's most valuable food fish. Under the present law, fishing is permitted from Portland to the sea, even during the winter months, and they form the chief source of winter sport for Portland fishermen. The salmon trout, which is known also by the various titles of sea trout and steelhead, is a gamey fish, but is caught exclusively with bait, of which salmon eggs is the most effective.

testimony of the prosecution. Weber oes not like this. His vanity has been hurt. But his attorneys are not to blame. Weber has told them He has made no admissions.

His only talk has been the question of an alibi. During the impanneling of a jury those sitting next to Weber said they could notice a slight tremor go over him whenever a talesman and there were many of them said he had formed an opinion, and that opinion was one of guilt. It was only a tremor, however, and soon passed away. Speculation is rife as to whether he 'will show any sign of emotion when District Attorney Kelly Robinson in his opening statement announces that the prose cution intends to and will beyond all reasonable doubt prove that the defendant, Adolph Weber, did willfully and unlawfully murder his mother. Will he show any signs of remorse when Dr.

Rooney goes upon the witness stand and describes the course of the fatal bullets and the awful burns upon his mother's person? Will he cringe when Clarence Gear testifies to the finding of the bloodstained pistol, thumb-marked and with a lock of little Chester's hair sticking to the handle in the dried blood? What will be his demeanor when his aunt, Mrs. Snowden, goes upon the stand and tells of the boy's cruel treatment of his parents, and later, on the morning after the fire, while in the Snowden house and in the presence of several of the family, how he became angry and, jumping up, and shaking his fist at his aunt, remarked that "Her time was coming Some believe that he will weaken; others hold that he will assume hU defiant manner to the end.
