THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1896. 11 SUICIDE OF A SHERIFF'S WIDOW Mrs. Mary Pascoe of Grass Valley a Victim of Melancholia. She Never Recovered From the Shock of Her Husband’s Murder. USED HER SON’S REVOLVER The Death of Sheriff Douz'ass Re- vived Memories That Unhinged H:r Mind. OARLAND OFricE SAN FrANCISCO CALL, 908 Broadway, Oct. 15. The widow of the late Sheriff W. H. Pascoe of Grass Valley committed suicide this morning while visiting her mster. Mrs. John W. Mitchell. About three years ago Sheriff Pascoe was killed by a train-robber namea Fred- ericks, who had attempted to rob a train and had killed 2 brakeman named Bruce. Fredericks made his escape and was hanged about a yeer ago for the murder of Cashier Herrick of this city in San Francisco. Her husband’s tragic death produced a shock Mrs. Pascoe. from which Mrs. Pascoe never recovered. For some months past she has been sub- ject to melancholia, and it was for the purpose of trying to break one of these spelis that she came to this city to visit her sister. Mrs. Pascoe was particularly impressed recently with the news of the kiling of Sheriff Douglass of Grass Vailey under circumstances similar to that of her own husband’s murder. It brought to her mind ‘more visibly than everthe cause of her grief, and she became more subject to melancholia, At the inquest this afternoon John Pas- coe, § son of the deceased, said his moth- er’s bealth had been failing ever since the death of his father. She suffered from nervous prostration, and frequently went off by herself and cried for long periods. He bad frequently remarked to his sister that he thought his mother would lose her mind. This morning his mother went into her son’s room and caressed him, She called him *ner darling boy” and said he was “the pride of her life.”” On a table in her son’s room was a revolver. As bis mother passed out she took it and concealed it be- neath her apron. She jt once went to the back porch, put the revolver behind her left ear and fired, and death was instan- taneous. iss Neitie K. Mitchell, a niece of the deceased, said that Mrs. Pascoe had suf- fered considerably and the doctor stated that she had a touch of congestion of the brain. Mrs. Pascoe was a native of Newecastle, England, but has lived in Grass Valley for many years and has raised a mmif); of seven children, all of whom lived at home with their mother. After the inquest the son accompanied the remains to Grass Valley, where they will be interred beside those of her late husband. —_— SHE CANNOT BE FOUND, Mrs. Coonradt’s Relatives Have a Warrant for Her.

'§ Mrs. Virginia Coonradt of Linda Vista, the aged lady who expressed a determi- nation to wed General Eugene de Beuu- harnais, is missing, and ber relaiives have so far not been able o serve her ith the warrant for insanity that was sworn to Jast night. Her son-in-law, Frank Ely, accom- panied by an officer, went to the Girard Hotel, but the widow bad left, It was supposed by her children that Mrs. Orm-by, the landledy of the Girard, bad helped to -conceal Mrs. Coonradt, This she positively denied to-day.

Big-Foot Gordon of Gold Brick ¥ame Given a Ten Years’ Sentence. OAKLAND, CaL, Oct. 15—When the case of Andrew Root, the alleged assayer of the gold brick swindle, was called this morning before Judge Greene the defend- ant ¢id not appear, but his attorney as- serted he would be ready for trial at a later date, and November 17 was set for the trial. There is a prevalent opinion that Root will never again be seen in this city. He is out on $7500 bonds, and it is believed his friends would rather have it forfeited than bave him take chances of aterm in prison. A single turn in the gold brick scheme such as they made on Banker Little of Dixon, would settle the account. Charles Gordon, alias “‘Big-foot Dave,” the convicted partner of Root, was up for sentence this afternoon. His attorney withdrew the motion jor a new trial, and a stipulation was filed that the second charge against h:m should not be brought up within three years except on motion of the Distriet Attorney. Gordon waived the right to an arrest of judgment, as well as all other legal rights. Jud e Gyeene sentenced him to ten years at San Quentin, saying he believed Gordon guilty, and that he had added perjury to the first offense, and that there were no mitigating circumstances.

BEREELEY, CaL, Oct. 15.—Trouble is brewing between the Unitarian society of Berkeley and the authorities in charee of Stiles Hall, with the Christian Bible Seminary a third party in the fray. The Unitarians are indignant. They say they have been discriminated against by the Stiles Hall trustees, who refused them the DESTRUCTION OF THE SANITARIUM. railroad victims have echoed through the spacious halls, is already dismantled and the upper story has been torn to pieces and thrown to the ground, to be converted into kindling-wood. Early in the '70's J. Walker, the wealthy miner, built a palatial home at Twelfth and Jackson streets, The Walker residence set the fashion for what has since become the most aristocratic section of the city. For a year or two it was the scene of notable banquets and social evenis, Itseemed to have been planned for the purposes of lavish entertaining. Like many other men of riches, who in their decliaing years built large houses, ‘Walker was not fated to enjoy it. Para- lysis overtook him; financial crashes suc- ceeded each other and the Waiker famil; passed from Oakland. Mr. Walker died, and his widow now resides in a hotel in HSan Francisco with justenough saved from the wreck of a fortune to stave off want., The mansion passed ‘into the hands of Dr. Woolsey, who transformed it into a hospital. Railroad victims make grewsome work, and weird stories of coffins being carried in and out bets&veen sunset and sunrise, and of strange figures being seen among the trees, gave the locality a gloomy repu- tation. After the railroad ceased to patronize the hospital, Dr. Woolsey had no use for it, and for over a vear it has been deserted, only the bats and memoriesand the watch- man’s imaginary ghosts having access to its interior. Some months a 0 a small fire broke out in one corner, and then the ips:runce compauies refused to accept the risk, Dr. Woolsey has already commenced a new order of things for the neighborhood by erecting a pretty residence in one cor- ner of the block. In a short time com- fortable homes will doubtless cover the whole of the block, and the coming gener- ation will know nothing of the varied history of the block in which they live, FUN TAT WS COSTLY, Three Lads Smash Windows, Rob a Bakery and Are Now in Jail.

ALAMEDA, Can, Oct. 15.—Shortly after 1 o’clock this morning Officers Schoenau and Moebus were startled by the crashing of glass, followed by peals of laughter. An investization was made and three young fellows were found standing on Santa Clara avenue, near Park street, who made a hurried departure on the ap- proach of the officers. J. A.

The Unitarians are wroth, because they have been tabooed from exercising the same privileges as another religious sect which is holding meetings under the same roof, and both are paying rent for the u<e of their particular portion of the building. They consider that a slur has been cast on their goodmame by being thus tabooed, and have risen to defend theirhonor and to demand equal rights with other tenants of Stilgs Hall. For the lust two Sundays the members of the church have ascended the stone steps leading to the vestibule of the hall and have been confronted with the huge gilt-lettered sign, *‘Berkeley Bible Sem- inary,”’” which is nailed to one of the pil- lars of the northwest wing. The sicht of this sign brought back to their memories the time, about a year and a half when the trustees requested the tarians in a quiet way to remove their newly painted sign, which had been up for only a few days. The thoughts of these things have been rankiing in the breasts of the Unitarians and they arenow prepar- ing to demand an explaaation or a return of their suingle. Rev. Dr. Edward B. Payne, pastor of the Unitarian Society, saia to-day: *‘Yes, we have been decidedly discriminated again: ‘We have been paying the trustees of Stiles Hall $300 a year since March, 1895, for the use o1 the upper auditorium ot the build- ing as a place for holding our regular Sun- day services. When we became tenants of the building we supposed that we would be treated as such, and accordingly putup a small, neat sign, calling attention to the | fact that services of the Unitarian Church were held within. The sizn had been there for only a short time when we were re- quested to remove it, as there had been some talk on the outside about putting a university building to the use of church denominations. “All this time, however, we were per- mitied to continue our serv ces, and the authorities not for once reiused the rent when it came due. We were allowed to hoid our meetings just the same, but were not permitted to have a few words tacked up on the building to gwmde the stranger. We took down the shingle, as request.d, have continued ever since with- out one, and have said nothing about it until now. “When the Christian Bible Seminary peop.erented a portion of the lower part of the 'I’:ulldmg a short time ago they at once bung up a buge board calling attention to the fact that they held classes there. “We have since been waiting vatiently to see 1f their sign was to be ordered down also, but it still hangs there. I claim that the discrimination between the two organ- izations is unjust in the extreme,” We are both tenants, and are, according to all reason, entitled to equnl privileges, unless under contract to the contrary. 1suppose the trouble lies in the fact that we are a heterodox denomination and that the seminary people are orthodox. Doubtless the same old fight will be brought about agaln against us Unitarians, and the old controversy as to the right of any church to hold services in the university building be again precipitated.” A Freshman Socialist.

QAEKLAND, CaL, Oct. 15.—Car 11 of the Haywards electric road, due here at 8:45 o'clock, collided with a heavy rockroller on East Fourteenth street, near Fruitvale avenue, yesterday morning, and was quite badly damaged. The front end was stove in and the glass all shattered. Fortu- nately all the passengers escaped un- harmed, except a little girl, who was burned by the electricity, and a boy whose head was cut by broken glass. The track was blocked for nearly two hours, and it required eight -horses to get the car out of the way. The officers of the road say it was accidental, the roller being turned suddenly too close to the track. —————— Died From His Injurles. J. C.
