In a moment he returned and said he would write a few words on the matter “‘nearest his heart for pubiication if desired.

It was after the jury entered their room for deliberatfon that Judge Cook ordered McIntosh arrestea for committing iry. The point on which the court said the doctor had testified falsely was in regard to his “discovery” of the fiftieth stub from whi the forged draft was This book was found in Sanders’ at his ranch shortly after bis arrest. Sheriff Scott and Deputy Peck and mem- bers of the Grand Jury which indicted the professor countea the blanks carefully and founa only forty-nine, or one less than there are usually in such books This was an important point for the prose- cution, as it contended that tie missing blank was the one on which the forged draft was written. Dr. McIntosh had the book in his hands and after this astub was found in the center of the book, mak- ing the fiftieth. He knew that the prose- cution was after him, and so to shield himself ve volunteered the statement in court the other day that he had seen that “hidden’” stub while a witness was turn- ing the leaves. This was before he was intrusted with the book. {cIntosh swore against the record. Be- sides this Judge Cook ventured the opin- ion that McIntosh inserted the stub, the book showing indications of having been altered.

Drive Leffingwell’s Men From a Train Which They Had Boarded. The Idiers Divided Into £quads and Dispersed In Different Directions. WOODLAND, Car., April 30,—The In- dustrial Army, headed by “General” Wil- liam Leffingwell. which struck camn near Davisville on Wednesday, boarded the northbound freight train at Davisville | this morning and announced its intention of riding to this city. The train crew made an effort to eject the men, but without suc- cess. Special Officer Ahern of Sacramento was dispatched to the scene. Sheriff Griflin was notified and immediately sum- moned all his deputies and the local offi- cersto the depot awaiting the arrival of a special train to carry them to Davisville. In the meantime Officer Ahern organized the train crew and constables 1nto a posse. The Oroville freight train, going in the same direction, was soon due and Detec- tive Ahern did not want to fight for the possession of both trains. He did not disturb the Industrials until No. 31 bad had pulled out of the station and was well on its way to Woodland. The posse then began operations. A big fellow, whose name was not given, as- sumed the leadership of Leffingwell's army, and was inclined to be obstinate. He weighs about 300 pounds, and boasts of having at one time been a policeman {in Rhode Island. Officer Ahern took him by the collar and ordered him to get off the train. After some hesitation he obeyed, and the rest was easy. His fol- | lowers speedily followed his example. They lined up along the road, but allowed the train to pull out without fuirther mo- lestation. The army then returned to camp, and notified the railroad men that they would board the next train and ride at all hazards. Ahern came to Woodland on a special, and returned to Davisville with Sheriff | Griffin and his men. They beld a parley | with the industrials, and informed them | that they must obey the law. They | would be transported from Davisville by | the railroad company to different ple | in squads, but could not leave in a body. Leflingwell and his lieutenant, Cor- | bett, were sent to San Francisco. His fol- lowers, left without leaders and fright- | ened by the determined stand taken by the officers, accepted the proposition, and | are now dispersing. They were supplied with provisions to last until they could be | transported. | Forawhile it was feared that the army | would resist and that a serious fight be- tween them and the officers would ensue. Some of the army offered resistance, but were quickly squelched. This afternoon Sheriff Griffin, who is on the spot, held another parley with the men and read them a lecture, saying they must | leave as urged and unless they did so force would be used to disband them. Every | train now carries from-eight to ten of the army and many are leaving afoot, going in different directions. Most of the men are well dressed and do not look like ordi- nary tramps, vet a number of conviots, who are known by the officers, are in the ranks of the arm FOUR APPUINTMENIS MADE, Governor Budd Distributes Several Stats Positions. SACRAMENTO, CAL., April 30.—Gover- nor Budd has appointed the following additional members of the Auditing Board to the Commissioner of Public Works: John Markley, secretary of the State Board of Examiners, and Gillis Doty and T. B. Hall of Sacramento County. They, together with J. Corcoran and G. W. Tat- terson of San Joaquin, constitute the en- tire board. The Governor has appointed Abbot Kinney of Los Angeles a member of the Yosemite Valley Commission, vice H. K. Field, term expired. Kinney was nomi- nated by the Governor during the last ses- sion of the Legislature as a trustee of the Whittier Stats School, but the Senate refused to confirm the nomination on the ground, it was claimed, that he had an- fagonized the members of the Lagislature in the Los Angeles Herald during the session. e SANTA ROSA PIONEER'S DEATH, Captain W. M. Doran, an Argomaut of ’49, Passes to the Beyond. SANTA ROSA, CaL., April 20.—Captain W. M. Doran, a pioneer of thiscounty, died in this city to-day. Captain Doran was born in Tennessee seventy-four years ago and came to this State in 1849. He engaged in mining in Amador and Placer counties with great success until 1856, and from that date until 1864 was a resident of San Francisco. | He then purchased a tract of land near | Bodegs and for twenty years conduc ed one of the largest and most profitable aniries on the coast. For the past twelve years Mr. Doran re- sided in Santa Rosa, for years serving as City Councilman. A widow and three grown children mourn his loss, in com- mon with hundreds of citizens of Calif nia. He will be buried under Masonic auspices at Sebastopo! on Sunday. —— FELL FROM DOS CABEZAS PEAR Daring Mountain - Climber Loses His Life in Avizona. BOWIE STATION, Ariz., April 30.— One of the most daring feats of mountain climbing ever undertaken was that which caused the death of Tully D: Long in the Chiricahua Mountains last week. He started to reach the summit of Dos Cabe- zas peak. After two days of searching his body was found at the bottom ofa gully perhaps a thousand feet below the peak. He was the 20-year-old son of Hon. 8. R. D> Long, of Tucson, Even the Apaches and trained moun- taineers shudder at the thought of under- \aking such a perilous feat, for Dos Cabe- zas peak rises almost perpendicular from the tabe Jands. The lad must have been within a few hundred feet of the summit when he lost his footing and fell into a side gully, striking his head on the stones. —_—— CAPTURED drvest of an Insane Murderer Who Es- ecaped From Stockton. ' PH®ENIX, Arw., April 30.—Antonip Vital, a lunatic, who is under sentence of death for murder in Santa Barbara Couaty, California, has been located at Tucson. This morning Deputy Sheriffs W. B. Lorenzo and J. H. Btrouf arrived from Santa Barbara and procured extra- 4T TUCSON., dition papers aud in the evening started tor Tucson. Vital was committed for murder several years ago, and while awaiting execution be wae granted a trial befors the Insanity Commissioners of SBanta Barbara County, with the result that he was committed to Btockton. About two years ago he es- caped from the asylum and his where- abouts remained a mystery until a few days ago, when he was located at Tucson. He is 1n jail there awaiting the arrival of the Sheriff’s men. g 100 A VICTORIA QUARANTINE RIOT. Cabn Passengers of the Empress of China Object to Fumigation—Dip- lomatic Negotiaticns. VICTORIA, B. C., Apri! 30.—When the Canadian Pacific Railway steamer Em- press of China arrived Tueslay and went into quarantine at William Head because two cases of smallpox were on board not much was tbought of it, though of course it was very inccnvenient for passengers having to remain in quarantine for four- teen days—for those were the orders of Dr. Watt, quarantine officer, on account of smallpox having resulted from allow- ing the Northern Pacific liner Victoria to go some months ago before her full time was up. There are 140 cabin passengers and 600 Chinese aboard, and when the steerage passengers were taken ashore, stripped and disinfected with a disagreeable smell- ing bath and their clothes taken from them and baked, it was all richt. But when the quarantine officials approached the cabin passengers yesterday and po- litely said, “Your turn next,” there w wrath and indignation irom the knicke bockered Londoners who protested against the audacity of the impudent colonials in daring to offer to bathe area!live Eng- lishman. They even indulged in threals of resistance, with the result that twenty- five men armed with Winchesters are now guarding the station, Not only this, but there is aboard his Excellency Cnang, Embassador from China to represent the Emperor at the diamond jubilee in London. He is ac- companied by a large suite of gorgeously attired Chinese, and they, like their countrymen, do not understand Western ways, and look with horror and disdain onan attempt to put the Emperor of China by proxy under fumigation. His Excellency has refused pointblank to un- dergo fumigation, and not only bas the Dominion Government been appealed to, but Lord Balisbury and the Chinese rep- resentative in London have been wired to. Chang says he will go back to China without proceeding to London, though in that case he is likely to lose his head for disobeyiag his orders from the Emperor, and says furthermore that if a hand is laid on him it means trouble between Great Britain and China, as the person of an embassador is sacred. Things are in statu quo at present, awaiting orders from the rederal authori- ties at Ottawa. Owing to the large num- ber of passengerson the steamer the ac- commodations at the quarantine station are inadequate, and with so many women and children the passengers protest that coming ashore atd living in rough sheds lor several days will be dangerous to their health. Thisstation isin process of er- largement to meet such cases, but it will take a few months to do so. RN, SPOKANE MONGOL HANSED. Chin Pon Suffers the Death Fenally for the Killing of One of His Coun- trymen. SPOKANE, Wasn., April 30.—Chin Pon was hanged hers to-day for the murder of his partner, Lee Tong, on March 13, 189. Lee Tong and Chin Yon were friends, be- longing to the same society and living in adjoining rooms in a Chiuese tenement on First avenue. They guarreied and en- gaged in a fight, in which Lee caressed Chin’s head with an iron bar. Ohin was possessed of a marvelous constitution or he would have been a dead man. He did nis share of the beating at the time, and Lee was also laid up in the hospital. Both served terms in the County Jail. On the day of their release they left the jail separately, but met in the tenement where they roomed. Chinrushed for Lee, but the latter took refuge in his room. He was afraid to venture out for a time, but finally took courage and left his room with a bucket to go for same water. Chin was waiting tor him and at once attacked him. He forced Lee back into the room, beat him unmercifully and then left ilm for &n instant. He returned shortly with two hatchets, and with these he attacked his enemy. Later the Coroner had diffi- culty in getting enough remains together to hold an inquest on. St S BLAME FOR A POLILAND WREECK, Coroner’s Jury Verdiot on the Electrio- Car Catastrophe. PORTLAND, Og.,, April 30.—The Cor- oner’s inquest over the bodies of.those killed in the East siae streetcar accident resulted in the following verdict: It is our opinion that the axle on said car was broken ar the reverse curve, a short distance east of where the said car left the track, thereby weakening the brakes oa the front truck to such an extent that the car with the momentum acquired by it coming down the gradeirom East Twelfth street was beyond control.” The consensus of opinion is that this would not have happened had not the car been run down the incline at more than double the speed allowed under the city ordinance, S 2he Railway to Randsburg, LOS ANGELES, Car., April 3u.—Work on the railroad from Kramer to Rands- burg will commence, probably, by the end of next week. This wili form the cheapest bit of railway construction in the Siate, as there is little grading to be done, no rock work and the soil is readily handled. It 18 estimated that the entire {wenty- seven miles can be built and equipped with two locomotives, two passenger- coaches and six freightcars at a total cost of $87,000, making it ail ready for traffic. Trains will be operated to tite camp, it is thought, by the 1st of August. 2 Killed on an Everett Diamond. EVERETT, Wasu., April 30.—Charles Broderick, 14 years old, was playing base- ball yesterday with other lads of his own age, and was acting as catcher behind the batsman. The,iatter, in striking at the ball, jerked the bat back to add force to the forward movement, and in o doing struck young Broderick with the point of the bat just below rthe knee. It must have touched a sensitive nerve, and for a few moments Broderick seemed paralyzed. After lying on the grass a little while he was able to limp homeward, but he died a few hours later.

No Feeling Engendered by the Contests for Grand Parlor Offices. Both of the Leading Candldates for Orator Glven Places of Honor. REDWOOD CITY, CAL, April 30.—The delegates to the Grand Parlor, Native Sons of the Golden West, lett this city for their respective homes on the forenoon train to-day, The banquet, which began at 11 o’clock 1ast nlght, did not end until an early hour this morning. Judge John F. Davis, in re- sponding to the toast ‘‘Our Flags,” el quently described the heroism of Ameri- can sailors in the great Samoan hurricane, and made special reference to the conduct of the noble sailors of the Trenton. The audience was somewhat surprized at a sudden common and great applause in the band. An explanation followed, when the fact was disclosed that one of the musi- cians in Roncovieri’s band was aboard the Trenton during the great gale. The delegates aeparted from the city well satistied with the work of the ses- sion. No bitter feuds remain to be ad- justed or fought over at the next Grand Parlor. The contest for grand orator, which at one time did threaten to engén- der some feeling, was happily settled by the election of Frank L. Coombs as chair- man of the board of grand trustees, leay- ing 0o one to oppose Judge Rusty and thos latter was unanimously elected orator. In electing Mr, Coombs trustee by ac- clamation the Grand Parlor paia a high compliment to the Native Son from Napa. The newly elected officers are: Grand president, George D.

There is a’ certain class of men who begin by having ringing sounds in the ears. This is followed by peculiar noises in the head, and then comes the Mysterious Echo. This echo is unlike the mountain echo, for the noise is entirely changed. Men who have lived lives of recklessness, of dissipation or of abuse soon find themselves in a con- dition of weakness that is indeed horrible. Besides the noises in the head, the spots before the eyes, the steam-like vapor that goes through the body, the sweats of night, the lost unmanly visions, and the first break of day brings this poor fellow to his senses. He realizes at last that having misused himself, he has wrecked his manhood. To such men a reliable treatment is offered by the greatest known doc- tors. This treatment cures all those conditions which ultimately lead to complete failure of manhood, to premature conditions, to impotency.
