These women stepped | forward and took possession of the girl and went away with her, leaving Mrs. Lake and the busband standing on the | platform. Mrs, Lake grasped the situa- tion and the Chinaman at the same time, and told him that if he did not teil where the girl was taken she would have him ar- | rested. The Chinaman was frightened | and told the number of the house, and next day Mrs. Lake went to the place, to find that 1t was a house of evil repute. | The girl wasin a family house back of | this vlace, and Mrs. Lake informed the | people that she would have them all ar- | rested and prosecuted if they ever put the | girl 1n the house of ill-fame, Mrs. Lake has since learned that the man who married the girl was sent by the | girl's owner 10 take her away, and that was the only way he could get possession | of her. | T | Free Bible Lecture.

Fife had an unhappy half bour in Judge Daingerfield’s court yester- day morning when Attorney Johnson, repr senting Judement Creditor Thomas E. Ryan, sought to find out why a debt of $1200 is not liquidaied. Mr. Fife testi- fied that be lives at 1201 California street with his wife, who pays all the family ex- penses. She owns the home property, having bought it with money which she raceived from her father, the late Nicholas Luning, *‘You have carriages, servants and quite an establisbment, have you not?"’ asked Mr. Johnson. My wife has,”” was the quiet reply. H Witness explained that ke has no busi- | ness, except to look after his wife’s prop- erty, for which he receives no compensa- tion. When he wants money he borrows it from his wife. His wife prys all hisex- penses and he bhas no income whatever. Some of his jewelry he sold to his brother- in-law, and his fine watch was bought by his wife for $30. He owns only tnree books; namely, a history of the late War of the Rebeilion. Mr. Fife said he would refuse to answer the question when Mr. Johnson asked if the witness was only a consumer and not a producer, o far us the household was concerned. He also resented the inquiry when Mr. Johnson wanted to know it he was merely a pensioner on his wife’s bounty, but the court ruled that it was an inquisitorial proceeding, and that the plainuiff had a right to know all about the defendant’s circumstances, so Mr. Fife replied that his wife paid for all the expenses of the family, including his own tailor’s bills. Further hearing will be had next Friday, unless Mr. Fiie shall decide to pay the debt. e gnaC A Russisn Admiral Here. Vice-Admiral E.

LET IN THE PITILESS WINDS, Doors and Windows Removed Because a Widow Couldn’t Pay Her Rent. “I can’t realize it. I never thought that there could be such hard-hearted people in the world to impose upon the unfortunate,’” said Mrs. E. Thorold last night, as she sat in the front room of her residence at 315 Jersey street. The tears welled up in her eyes and there was a hali-smothered sob in her voice. The wind blew a gale and rattled the curtains that were tacked across the openings where the windows should have been. The day belore two men, who represented that they were sent by the Sheriff, remoyed the doors and windows. *It has been a bard struggle for me to make a living for my children,” she con- tinued. the Sheriff. “‘One misfortune followed another, and now my tugboat is in the hands of I pleaded with my creditors and begged them to give me more time and I would pay all my debts, but they would not. be making money, but my tug is tied up at the wharf. It is just my busy time and I could Because Iam two months be- hind with my rent the doors and windows are taken out off my house. “‘There is the picture of my husband,” she sobbed, pointing to a crayon on an easel; “it’s a wonder his lips remain closed when I am being treated like this, It is very hard,” and the poor woman tried torestrain her tears. And it was hard. whici time she has been struggling hard to keep a roof over her five children, Mrs. Thorold lost her husband about four years ago, since The tugboat Ethel and Marion was theonly thing that was lef: her to earn a livelihood, but Laving a brave heart she soon mastered the little craft and for awhiie she dii weil. She made a brave batile to keep the wolf from the door with only her small hands, but one misforune after another overtook her until at last her only means of support was taken from her. Three weeks ago an attachment was placed on the tug for a bill which the owner was unable to pay, on account of an unusually dull season. It was her busiest time, and if atlowed to have her boat, Mrs. Thorold declares that she could have paid ail | her debts. Two months’ rent, amounting to $25, became due, and a week ago the agent of A. M. Speck & Co., the real estate man of whom she rents the house, came to her and demanded a seitiement. She promised to pay the following Tuesd sick, ana when tne agent came she was unable to redeem her promise. “That isn’t business.” Last Thursday morning t'e ageat came again. she was ill, but he said: but was r1aken She told him There was no one in the house but the two younger children, Mrs. Thorold having gone downtown to make arrange- ments for getting her tug released. companied the agent. door.

To her inquiries the agent replied that he was going to have the doors painted and the windows made smaller. He then jeft, and the men preeeeded with their work. The neighbor pleaded with them to let ths doors and windows remain, but she was informed by the men that they came from the Sheriff’s office, and had to obey orders. Mr. Mitchell, another neighbor, also expostulated with the men, but they did not desist until they had taken the doors and windows out of the house and loaded them into the express wagon. Thev then drove away. Inquiry at the Sheriff’s office elicited the information that the men had not been sent from that office, The 8heriff knew nothing avout them. A. M. Speck, the real estate man, stated that he did not authorize any of his men to remove the doors and windows from Mrs. Thorold’s residence. Kindhearted neighbors have taken the children into the shelter of their homes until their mother can get into another house, which she is now prevaring to do.

Wi \ A TALENTED YOUNG OAKLAND ARTIST, Miss Annie Frances Briggs is one ot Oakland’s most talented young women, Though still in her twenties she has already made quits a name for herself in the world of art, and is rapidly becoming one of California’s foremost artists. Miss Briggs has won prizes wherever she has exhibited, many times competing with the best artis of the State. Among the places she has competed are the State Fair at Sacramento, the Mechanics’ Fair in this city and the Industrial Exhibi- tion in Oakland. Miss Briggs is the daughter of Colonel L. H. Briggs, one of Oakland’s most esteemed citizens. The young lady is a very pretty girl, and & general favorite in society. She is a member of the Sketch Club. Though Miss Briggs is both a water-colorist and an oll painter her work in the former cl best, and her picture ‘‘The Redwoods™ has received high pr 1s considered her 11 over the State. 8Sbe has studied under Narjot, Latimer and Keith, the latter declaring ber one of his best pupils.

Ebanks Removed From the Shadow of the Gallows. Application to the U, S, Court for the Writ Stayed the Execution, Was to Have Been Hanged Yester- day, but Is Saved by a Legal Technicality. Yesterday was to have been the last day oflife for Joseph Jasper Ebanks, sentenced to be hangea for the murder of a man and a woman near San Diego, but an appeal from an application for & writ of habeas corpus applied for in the United States District Court stayed the hangman. | The application for the writ was filed by Attorney Eugene Deuprey, and it recited the formal complaint that the defendant was never indicted, but was proceeded against by information of the District Autorney. The entire matter was simoly a technical spar for wind, as in the Dur- rant case and as in all other cases that go up since the Federal legal fences have been discovered to be broken down. Under the law there is an appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States in all cases where the Federal Judge below refuses, however justly even, to allow the writ, Notice of the appeal from the refusal to allow the writ was served on Acting War- den Edgar at the office of the Attorney- General, on whose advice the hanging was abandoned. Ebanks was joyful when he was trans- ferred from the condemned cell to cell 19, which is occupied by his friend, Chavis. However, the doomed man was quite com- posed Thursday night and yesterday morning. He slept well throughout the hours of what he believed to be his last night, awoke refreshed yesterday morning and ate a hearty breakfast. He still talks a great deal about the hereafter and professes religion. To a Cavr reporter he said: “I bave a strong belief in a hereafter and I bope to reach heaven. This has always been my hope and belief. [ am innocent of the crime, though the evi- dence was strong against me, If I werea disinterested party and should read the same evidence that condemned me, woven around some other man, I would believe him guilty. I do not blame people for thinking me guiity, especially since the gun which I owned was found a few rods from the scene of the murder. I am trying t0 meet my maker with courage, for I believe there is a sure way to a bappier land.” A newspaper reporter suggested that there might be some question as tothe certainty of a hereaiter, whereupon Ebanks” said: “If you would pay less attention to your newspaper business and more to your Bible you would beiieve in a future life.” But the condemned man has little hope of escaping the gallows for a long period. Hesays he dreads dying most on account of his wife and children. He thinks a fair hearing of his case might resuitin an | acquittal, but he does not believe the law will grant him such an appeal as will allow all the facts NUST G0 10 DRSO, Appeal of C. R. Benmett to the Supreme Court of No Avail. After Three Years of Litigation the | Ex-8ecretary Will Visit San Quentin. The Supreme Court yesterday handed down a decision affirming the judgment of tne Superior Court of Alameda County in the case against C. R. Bennett. Bennett, it will be remembered, is the former secretary of the Society for the Prevention of Vice, who was deposed from his position on account of charges brought against him of improper conduct with Ella Gray. On September 3, 1894, George Gray, the father of the girl, met Bennett on the cars and took four shotsat bim. Bennett, shortly after this, returned with a revolver and made an attempt to kill Gray, but missed him. Gray was ar- NEW TO-DAY.

A Schilling & Company San Francisco rested and on trial wasacquitted. Bennett Was arraigned on the charge of assault with intent to commit murder, but the jury brought in a verdict on the lesser charge—guilty of asssuit with a deadly weapon. On motion of the defense a new trial was granted, and a verdict was rendered finding him " guilty of atiempt to commit murder. A new trial was again granted the defendant, but on appeal to the Su- preme Court by the people the order for anew trial was reversed and the lower court sentenced Bennett to impr sonment in the penitentiary. An appeal to the Supreme Court was then taken by the defendant, who asked that it reconsider its former decision. In the opinion rendered yesterday the court called attention to its former dectsion in the case and ruled thut after a decision has been rendered thirty days it becomes rermanent, and cannot be reconsidered. On these grounds it beld that the merits of the case could not again be gone into, The judgment of the lower court was sffirmed, and Mr. Bennett will have to | serve his term at San Quentin. SEune gy o SUICIDE WITH GAS. Mrs. Anna Irving Sick and Despondent Took Her Life.
