Too Weak to Walk, He Crawls for Weeks in Search of Food. Special Dispatch to The Call. VANCOUVER, B. C., Sept. 30.—With only a flickering spark of life left in a frame wasted by forty-six days of con- tinuous hunger, Fréd Larore, a mining | man well known here, returned to Van- couver to-day. Since August 1, Larone has been lost in the woods. His experience was a horrible | one. There are days of which he remem- bers practically nothing, and the period of his starvation is like one continuous ightmare. Too feeble to stand. wan and pale of face and absolutely helpless, La- rone was picked up by the loggers at Wulffsohn Bay and brought into camp. Men who knew Larone two months ago, | when he weighed 210 pounds and was a | finely built man, do not recognize him now in the slender, shriveled being who | weighs 'barely 140, and who has appar- through the valley of the ath. revived enough to tell his He left Vancouver early in He had been drinking much, and his friends were not far wrong when y feared he had wandered off in a fit of delirfum. For days the loggers at the | McIntyre camp _searched for him, but without result. He says he walked for ays. He ate berries and bark and just managed to keep alive. The pangs of hunger wore off the influence of the liguor, and he had a sense of the danger of death, but he could do nothing but crawl along. He lost flesh rapidly, and each day he feared that the succeeding one would be his . For_an entire month he struggled for life. He tried to catch fish out of the brooks, and was forced to eat toads and small reptiles that he could easily catch. After thirty-five days of wandering, La- rone caught a porcupine, and the eating of it undoubtedly saved his life. For four days he lived on the raw meat and gathered a little fresh strength. Fortu- ately he did not meet any wild animals, and there was little to break the mo- notony. It was four days after he heard the engine whistle at the bay before he was able to reach the track. He crawled most of the way on his hands and knees, for he staggered and fell heavily if he attempted to walk. He dragged himself near the railway line and waited, and later was picked up. Larone is now at the camp recuperat- ing. He b ves he could not possibly have survivec nother day RAISIN-GROWERS TAKE ISSUE WITH DIRECTORS | Up in Arms Over the Association’s Slash in the Price of Their Product.

Specfal Dispatch to The Call. SANTA BARBARA, Sept. 30.—The fourth day of the trial of Willlam Kelso, charged with the murdér of Harry E. Blochman at Santa Maria on the even- ing of July 3, brought out the prosecu- tion’s moxt damaging testimony agalnst the prisoner. This was given by;James Davisson and Juan B. Arrellanes Jr. Davisson is a young man of 22 years. He sald that, with Arrellanes and a friend from San Francisco named Dake, he met Harry Blochman at a point with- in a few blocks of the Blochman home and going in that direction. Harry was with Kelso. He stopped Davisson by taking him by the arm and asked him if a game of baseball which had been planned for the Fourth had been called off. He was told that it had. After a few further remarks Harry and Kelso went on toward Harry's home. Arrellanes substantially corroborated Davisson's testimony. He also said that he saw Harry Blochman with Kelso be- tween 9:15 and 9:30 o’clock. The way he fixed the time was by the fact that he set his watch by the electric clock at the Santa Maria Bank. It was then 9:10 o'clock. They walked southward along Broadway nearly to Blochman’s house and were returning when they met Harry. Crushed Under Wagon Wheels.

Devine, Troop H, Eleventh Cavalry, who was tried by a general court-martial at Fort Ethan Al- len, Vt.,, on the charge of “using disre- spectful words against the President of the United States in violation of the four- teerth article of war.” __It appears from the evidence that when the news of the shooting of President Mc- Kinley was received at Fort Ethan Allen Devine expressed great satisfaction over the crime and applied an uncomplimen- tary epithet to the late President. His comrades handled him roughly be- fore he could be secured in the guard- house. He was found guilty of the charge by the court and sentenced to be dishon- orably discharged from the service of the United States, forfeiting all pay and al- lowance due him and to be confined- at hard labor for one year. The record of the case having been re- ferred to Major General Brooke at New York, commanding the Department of the East, he indorsed it and says: “It’is not within the power of the re- viewing authority to increase the punish- ment, but in order that the prisoner may not wholly escape punishment the sen- tence is approved and will be duly exe- cuted at Fort Columbus, N. J., to which place the prisoner will be sent under prop- er guard.” " General Brooke's final and the record to the War tion in the case is simply has been sent Department for filing.

SAN JOSE, Sept. 30.—An old cat and a incubator and hatching a brood of seven chickens is the novel impetus given to the poultry busi- ness in this city. Mrs. McCormack, who resides at the corner of Seventh and Keyes streets, is the proud possessor of this mixed up family. Tabby gave birth to five kittens a few days ago, and she carried them off to the barn and hid them. When they were found a remarkable state of affairs was discovered. The old cat had deposited her kittens in a hen’s nest and had frightened the setting hen away. The €ggs were almost ready to hatch, and the heat from the bodies of the kittens was better than an incubator, for seven little chicks broke through their shells and shared the nest with the kittens. The old cat pald no attention to her curious family and the little chickens were found ne d the kittens. o ey NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. SPLIT, BRITTLE, DULL HAIR.

Allays itching Instantly DEMANDS MONEY OF MAJOR BEFRY Blackmailer Threatens Life of Stockton Citizen. Officials Fail to Entrap the ‘Writer of Anonymous Letter. DI Special Dispatch to The Call, STOCKTON, Sept. 30.—According to the Mail of this date, Major C. J. Berry of this city, formerly of Visalla, received a letter on the 24th inst. commanding him to place $1000 in gold at a certain road tank on the lower Sacramento road, just north of the city. He was commanded to bury the money by one of the tank posts and warned that in case of failure, or should he report the affair to the officers, he would be shot or poisoned forthwith. The unknown correspondent said he wanted the money only as a loan and would mail a note in exchange. The letter was type-written. At first Berry believed it was a hoax, but on reading it over he decided to give the letter to the District Attorney. The latter, taking a deputy from the Sheriff's office into his confidence, decided to lay a trap for the blackmailer. Berry drew $1000 from the bank, and, as he was informed in the letter that he | was watched, pains were taken to carry | the money as publicly as possible to his office. Here fifty silver doliars were sub- stituted for the gold, and in the evening he drove to the place and deposited the coin. Two deputies disguised as tramps | lay in the field near at hand to watch pro- ceedings. They failed to see any one ap- proach the spot during the night, and the | next day on rereading the letter Berry found he had placed the sack in the wrong place. The mistake was rectified and another watch set. Two suspicious strangers | were intercepted, but there was no evi- | | dence against them. The officers believe the blackmailer was under the impression_that he was after Clarence Berry, the Kiondike millionaire, | who has large interests in this county. | Major Berry professes not to feel nerv- | ous over the affair, but he Is anxious for | the officers to capture the letter-writer If possible.
