4 THE FRANCISCO CALL, T DA MARCH 23, 1897 PRINT OF A SHOE 1N SOLID STONE Strange Discovery in the Elysian Park at Los Angeles. Contour of Aantique Footgear of Mexican Style Pilainly Outlined. The Peculiar Indentation Foued in Rock Covered by Four Feet of Earth. LOS ANGEL: CaL, March 2 Scientifically inciined persons in Southern California are pondering deeply over the discovery, in Eiysian Park bere, of a dis- tinct imprint in solid stone of a shoe worn by & human being, This discovery s certain to excite mno little comment, for there appears to be no authentic record of a fossilized footprint of a human being of ordinary size having been found hereto- fore. the owner of the foot wore a shoe of antique Mexican fashion, with high, nar- row heel and broad, flat sole. The im- print is perfectly clear, and- looks as though the owner had unwittingly put b right foot into soft mud but a day or two ago and left his mark, to be dried by the sun and preserved jor future generations. The fossil imprint was discovered by laborers who are making a deep cut for the new wagon road northwest of the park. It was cut out of solid rock, fo feet or thereabouts below the surface soil | and from & point on the hillside at least seventy feet above the bottom of the httle canyon at the hill's base. The stoneisa fine-graized shale, impregnated with lime. An interesting Toct in connection with the find is this preserved and clearly delineated organic Temains, such as f have been found in the same deposit; and, strang . but a few days ago the complete outiine of s fish was taken from the same stratum of stone not many feet distant from this Jast find. The fish’s re- mains were twenty feet below the surtace. e SAN DIEGO’S WATER CASE. Judge Ross Orders That the Action Be Restored to the Calendar for Further Hearing. LOS ANGELES, Car, March United States Circuit Juaze Ross handed down an important decision here to-day in the famous San Diego water case which settles the question of the jurisdiction of the Circuit Court in the premises, The case is that of Charles D. Lannisg, re- ceiver of the.San Diego Land and Town Company, complainant, vs. H. C. Os- borne et al, and relates to exceptions which had been filed by the compiainant in answer to an amended answer filed be- fore by the defendants. The plaintiff was appointed by the United States Circuit Court for Massachu- setts in September, 1895. The holdings of the company, in addition to certain land in San Diego County, consisted of & water system which bad its source at the head of Sweetwater River, and inciuded the famous Sweetwater dam. The compsny supplies water to National City and to surrounding lands. The point in dispute was the right of complainant to raise the water rates. Lanmmng elieged that the Tate in operation had been inadequate to pay the expenses of his company and in- terest on the money invested. Ihe com- pany claimed the rieht to raise the rate from $3 50 to $7 an sacre, basing it on the | fact that tue Board of Supervisors had not settled on any rate. The land-owners re- fused to pay the new rate. The receiver then shus the water off. Tue plaintifl asked that Osborne and the other aefendants be enjoined from prosecuting him in the State courts, and that they be required to set up their claims in the Circuit Court; ihat be have the right to increase the water rate, and 1hat the detendants be required to pay it. To this tie defendants filed answer claiming that the complainant was legally bound to supply them with water at §3 50 an acre for ail time. 5 ds that the United States rcuit Couri has jurisdiction.

Son of a San Jose Couple Arrested for the Alleged Killing of a Trapper. MEDFORD, Or, March 22.— The Coroner’s inguest over the body of Gustav A. Hall, tve trapper found dead near his cavin at Eik Cresk, has resulted in the arrest of Lee Parsons, a young man living n that locality, on the charge of murder. Parsons is about 20 years old, and lived with bis uncle a few miles from the scene of the shooting. He had visited Hall the | day the latter was supposed to have been shot, and had taken dinner with him. Itis supposed—and the supposition is supported by circumstantial evidence— that after eating dinner the two started out to set some traps, as Hall had a num- ber of traps by him when found. | Two tracks were found, as though the men had walked side by side uutil near the scene of the shooting. There the tracks indicated that Hall had gone ahead about fifty feet, when hé was shot in the back of the head. ;One track was then traced back to the cabin and thence to the Lewis farm. The boots that Par- sons claimed to have worn that day fit these tracks. Parsons is well known here. His parents lived in this city for a number of years, but moved to San Jose, Cal., three years ago, leaving him here with his uncle. No cause other than robbery can be ascribed for the shootin ., and it is claimed Parsons knew that there was money in Hall's cabin. A thorough search failed to dis- close anything of value in the cabin, but it was piain that the place had been en- tered and rifled after the shooting. o O Fighting for a Sonoma Estate.

Must Answer for the Killing of a Subject of the Diaz Government. Shot zn Outlaw Who Resisted Arrest at the Hands «f the Accused M:n's Brother, SAN DIEGO, CArn., March 22.—The trial of the case of the People vs. Sam A. Thing, charzed with the murder of Santi- ago Socias, began tiis morning. It gives promise of lasting for several days. The case presents several novel features, and has given rise to much diplomatic corre- spondence between the United States and Mexican State departments. Socias was a native of Mexico. Three ar four years ago, it is said, he murdered a man iu Orange County, escaping into Mexico before the officers could locate him. In March, 1896, the Sheriff of Orange County learned that Socias had been seen in San Diego County. He advised Sheriff Jennings of this city of tais fact and | asked his co-operation in capturing the | Mexican, who was a fu gitive from justice with a price of $500 on his head. Jen- nings then sent word and authority to Deputy Sheriff Frank Thing at Potrero, who hiad told him of the Mexican’s pres- ence there, telling Thing to arrest him. Thing. knew Socias weli, as the latter had been in the vicinity for some time. On April 16, Thing and his brother, Sam Thing, a boy of 17 years, went over | to Tecate, a few hundred yards from the Mexican line, and found Sociasin a black- smith-shop, with his horse tied outside. Frank Thing went 1nside, first handing his revolver to his brother. He ordered Socias to surrender and asked him if he had any weapons about him. It seems that Socias made some motion whick frightened Sam Thing, for as Socias started to run out the boy drew his re- volverand shot twice, bringirg Socias down just as he was trying to mount his horse. Socias died a few minutes later. A tpreliminary examination was held shortly afterward, the evidence tending to show that 8am Thing feared for his broth- er’s safety and fired the fatal shot. The District Attorney, believing it to be a case of justifiable homicide, dismissed the ac- tion, In the meantime influentjal friends of the dead man were at work, and shortly afterward the killing was brought to the attention of M. Romero, Mexican Minis- | ter at Washington, who caused such a s over the affair that Secretary Olney compelled to still further investigate,with the resilt that all diplomatic correspond- ence, covering several hundred pages, was turned over to ‘Governor Budd, with in- structions to him to prosecuta the case.

Christian Sociglists Smarh the Windows of Jewish Shopkerper Pas VIEX tories in this city of the Cbristian Socis ists in the elections for members of the Reichsrath have made them im- patient to defeat in any direction, and to-day they gave a very pronounced dis- approval of the election of a Radical in the second ward of Vienna. The Christian Socialists, which party contains all the Jew-baiters under the leadership of the notorious Dr. Leueger, were indig- nant when they learned of the defeat of their candidate, and to give vent to their ill-feeling a Jarge crowd, composed princi- pally of anti-Semites, made an attack upon stores kept by Jews in the district. They smashed windows and assaulted sevetal of the shopkeepers, three of whom were seriously injured. The crowd bad things all their own way fora time, but the police suddenly swooped down upon them and arresting fifty of the more ce- mogslmure of the rioters dispersed the mob.

SEEDS OF CONSUMPTION Catarrh, Bronchitis and Throat Disease Are Sown by the Neglect of a Marcn Cold—Munyon's Cold Cure Breaks Up. the Worst Form of a Cold at Once. WEAK KIDNEYS The Result of Extra Work on the Part of These Organs During Cold Weather Are Promptly Strengthened by Mun- you's Kidney Cure. INPOVERISHED BLOOD And Deficient Circulation Call for Mun- yon’s Blood Cure, the Best Blood Tonic on the Market—It Enriches and Puri- fles the Blood, Promotes Appetite and Cives Kenewed Strength and Vitality. Professor Munyon say: he idea that one must take ‘Spring Medicines’ is & great mistake. It is true that at this sea- sen of the year many changes take place in the humau body that affect the bliood, liver, kidneys and nerves, but in healtby people these cnanges occur without the help of medicines. In fact, it is a sin | against nature to take druge of any kind |into ti ebbody unless one isill. The so- cailed Spring Medicines for the blooa are also brd because they pretend to cure alt diseases with one combination ot medi- cines. If your stomach is outcf order it isabsurd totake rheumatism medicine; | if you have a cold, a_kidney remedy not only does you no good, bat may do harm; | if your liver is sluggish, a nerve cure is useless. In fact, there isonly one way to | cure promptly and permanently, that is, by treating each phase of disease with the appropriate remedy. ‘A separate cure for each disease’ is the grand and true prin- ciple on which the Munyon system of treatment has gained its marvelous suc- cess. “Ifyou have a March cold, the first thing is to cure the cold, as this is the season when grippe and colds have a dan- gerous tendency to develop into lung dis- eases and catarrab. The most obstinate {colds yield in a_few hours to Munyon’s Cold ‘Cure. Pneumonia, catarrhal dis- | emses and throat troubles are always pre- vented by this remedy. Where Colds are complicated by a Cough, the Cold Cure a separate State out of the territory adja- | snould be alternated with Munyon’s Cough | cent to New York harbor.

THE MAYOR'S NEW OFFICE He Will Inspect All Sidewalk Work About City Property. Mayor Phelan has created a new office— that of Inspecto: of Sidewalks about ub- lic Property—and bas appointed himself | to fill the position. Tothe Mayor's credit, | however, it must be said that there are no | emoluments attached to the office bevond the consciousness of having performed a much needed public service. When he went into office the Mayor decided to see that the work for which the municipality must pa; t Jeast, should be done in a proper manner. A few daysago an authorization issued from the Board of Supervisors for payment for sidewalk work about Alamo square. Colonel Sulii- van, the Mayor's secretary, was sent to | look at the job and reported that it seemed to be of a poor character. Then Mr. Phelan decided to see it him- seif, and after reading up on cement side- walks, repaired to tbe square. He poked holes in the blocks with the ferule of his umbrella, crumbled a few sections with his heel and then prepared the following veto, which was presented to the Board of Supervisors yesterday : SAN FRANCISCO, March 19, 1897, To the Hon. the Board of Supervi I herewth (ransmit 10 you, without my ap- proval, authorization Na. 6055, providing jor the payment of $92858 (o J.
