The man and a male confederate had just passed a counterfeit dollar on a saloon-keeper at the corner of Larkin and McAllister streets. The confederate escaped, but Karl Kristensen and Mrs. Mary Terry, allas Mrs. Kristensen, alias Nellie Brown, were arrested in the vicinity. Kristensen and the woman occupled a suite of three rooms at 514 @ddy street, and had been living together since last April. The pair were taken: to the City Prison and searched. All that was found was a dollar and two dimes, all counterfelt. Secret Service Agents Hazen and Cronin then searched the rooms of the prisoners and found a complete outfit of molds, together with a quantity of tin and lead. out of which the counterfeit money had been made. They also found a quantity of half-finished coins. The woman came from Lansing, Mich., about two years ago. She gave the name of Nellie Brown to the detectives, but they ascertained her real name and her past history, which is =aid to be far from savory. Kristensen said that he kept a restaurant at the Manchester House on Sixth street five or six years ago and that he returned from the Klondike about six months ago. He aamitted having coined the money, but said that he had no intention of passing the pieces. He had read about.the cap- ture of some counterfeiters in San Luis Obispo County and he wondered how bogus money was made, and simply for pastime he made some plaster molds and a few pleces out of tin and lead. He carried three of the dollar pieces around with him in his pockets because he did not like to have any one tadink that he was “broke.” His friend, whuse name he refused to divulge. had asked him_ for one of the dollars, and he had given It to him upon his prom- ise not to attempt to passs it. The secret service men had been watching Kristensen for some time. Com- plaints had been made that ~ounterfeit coins had been passed upon pool- sellers and others at the racetrack, and Kristensen was found to be a fre- quent attendant at the races. This fact, reinforced by the information gained afterward that Kristensen had no visible means of support, led to a watch being placed upon him and the woman. 4—.&'0~.Q.—0A.&.0‘. 0-.*0‘0*.'0'.’.*.‘.'.‘ ° + nd | giving their brave boys at the ferry build- George Lask, the stage manager for the | ine ‘o the mormning of ‘thely arrival €.

High Chief Ranger Boehm has called a meeting of representative of the Ancient Order of F sters for next Tues- d y night to arrange for the parade.

Its literary features this week include s musical and theatrical crit- icisms, timely editorial comments, and the doings of the business world during the week in its financial columns. The Wasp this week is certainly up to its usual high standard. . — e————— An Important Conference. A committee consisting of Messrs.

E é | = TRIED TO PASS BUT STOPPED BY A BAYONET William Holmesin the Hospital. e WOUNDED IN THE ABDOMEN o P ARRANGEMENTS FOR FUNERAL OF COLONEL HAWKINS. it Chaplain Hunter of the Tenth Pennsylvania Regiment Will Accompany the Body East. otlgis William Holmes of Company F of the casual detachment at the Presidio was stabbed with a bayonet by J. Farrei. a on duty at the recruit camp, night. Holmes is now in the general hospital at the Presidio. The sur- geons will not say how serious the wound is, but its location, in the abdomen, makes it a dangerous one. The sentry who did the stabbing is con- fined in the stockade at the recruit camp. The officer of the day at that place who is responsible for all prisoners did not know the man had been arrested; he did not know the name of the sentry, nor did he know the name of the man wound- ed; and as to the assault he knew only that such a thing he had heard had hap- pened. It had not been reported to the adjutant of the ual detachment, Cap- tain Hardin, for he said he knew nothing about the matter at all. He did not know where it had happened nor did he know who could tell anything about it. The only thing certain about the whole case is that the wounded man is at the gen- eral hospital and he may die. Holmes says the whole thing was an ac- cident. He is a cook, and with another cook he was going down toward the com- pany kitchens when he was halted by a sentry. He says he told the sentry he was a cook and thought it would be all right, but the sentry still refused to let him pass. Then, he says, he tried to pass any- Wiy and the sentry thrust his bayonet at him and it entered his abdomen just under the stomach. The other side of the story is that the cooks were going down toward the when the sentry stopped them. They insisted on passing and he arrested them. They were released soon after and then went down to_ the sentry's beat, wiere they lay for him to thrash him, He saw tnem as they jumped at him and thrust his rifie at” them, wounding Holues.
