Besides this was a letter from James Caldwell. of Hamilton, Ont., written to his sister Bernice, who was the dead child. These children are the fruit of the dead woman’'s first marriage. Besides these and a number of photo- graphs were two promissory notes for $100 each and a poll tax receipt made out in favor of Oscar Jacobson. Jacobson is a pastry cook at the Occidental Hotel and has been on_excellent terms with Mrs. Jensen for a long time. They were much together and were said to be engaged.

EARY of life’s buffeting, des- titue and probably the victim of a romance the outcome of which had ended in somber disillusionment, Mrs. Jennie Jensen turned on the gas in her room at 905% Mission street Tuesday night and lay down upon the bed beside her sleep- ing child. When other lodgers broke into the room at 11 o'clock yesterday morning both bodies were cold in death® The daughter, a pretty girl of thirteen, was undressed and under the coverlets, but the mother had laid down fully dressed to await death. Every indication pointed to a deliberate murder and sulcide on the part of the mother. The tip of the gas jet was found at the foot of the bed, where it had evi- dently been tossed. The keyhole and the shace between the bottom of the door and the lintel had been stuffed with rags to prevent the escape of gas. There was no note or word of farewell from the dis- heartened woman who had deliberately planned to end her life and to take her child with her into the unsolved beyond. WAS TWICE MARRIED. One trunk among the scanty furniture of the miserable room held the secret to the woman'’s identity and a hint as to the pos- sible cause of her terrible deed.

SANTA ROSA, June 4—The franchise end right to use the streets of this city which are at present traversed by the Central Street Raillway Company is about to be revoked by the Common Council. At the meeting last night an ordimance was introduced by Councilman King and passed its first reading declaring that the company had forfeited its franchise and that the railway lines are nuisances. The action by the Council is sald to have been taken because the company which controls the rallways allowed the roadbed to get below the officlal grade of the streets and refused to keep it in repair; also because flat rails were not supplied and a regular time schedule was not kept. The ordinance will be glven a second reading and final passage at the meeting of the Council on June 17. The president of the company, J. H. Brush, has announced his intention to appear before the Common Council and confer with it. He expresses surprise at the action taken and claims the company has expended much money in an endea- vor to keep the property up to the re- quired standard. COURT’S RULING GOES AGAINST THE STATE Indications That All Coyote Scalp Claims Will Have to Be Paid. SACRAMENIO, June 4.—Present indi- cations are that all holders of coyote scalp certificates, assigned or' otherwise, who have instituted proceedings against the State, will obtain judgments in the Superior Court for the amounts sued for, For the past three days the question as to whether the certificates for scalps should be admitted in evidence has been argued before the court, and this after- noon a ruling was made by Judge Joseph W. Hughes admitting them in evidence. In concluding his rullng Judge ~Hugnhes said: 1 reach this conclusion reluctantly, because I belleve that it will deny unto the State the right to prove that there was perjury m mak- ing the affidavits suggested in the act, or that some other fraud was practiced upon the board. 1 feel that these certificates are proof of the killlng of the coyote by the party named in the certificate; that he Killed the number there- in stated, and that there is’due to him the amount therein stated, and such certificate be admitted in evidence, ba Caldwell as that of a young girl who had been brought to her last July by a man whose name or description she refused to give. She sald he made arrangements for the girl to board, and she remained there until Tuesday last, visiting her mother, Mrs. Jensen, once a week. On June 1 she began her vacation term from school, and two days following left Mrs. Fulton's house to spend a week with her mother. Mrs. Fulton admitted knowing the iden- tity of the man who pald the child's board, but she refused to answer when asked if it were Jacobson. She said she understood Mrs. Jensen had been divorced from her last husband. The bodies of mother and daughter are at the Morgue awaiting the investigation of the Coroner's jury. ! | ers.

LONDON, June 4—It was announced | this morning that- Lord Kitchener had been created a Viscount by King Edward. | | He has also been advanced to the rank | of general. In the House of Commons the Govern- ment leader, A. J. Balfour, presented a | message fromeKing Edward as follows: “His Majesty, the King, in considera- tion of the eminent services rendered by Lord Kitchener and being desirous in recognition of such service to confer on him some signal mark of his favor, recom- | mends that he, the King, should be en- abled to grant Lord Kitchener £50,000.” | Jobn Dilion, Willam Redmond and | swift McNeill, Irish Nationalists, an- | nounced their intention of opposing the grant at every stage. A resolution re- plying to his Majesty's message will be| discussed to-morrow. Almost all the morning newspapers_in London comment upon the grant of £50,- 000 to Lord Kitchener as unnecessarily niggardly. The report that Kitchener will come home for the coronation is incorrect. He still has much to do in South Africa and it is not likely that he will leave there before the middle of July. The South African commands will then be diveded, General Lyttleton taking charge of the | Transveal and the Orange River Colouy | and General lan Hamilton relieving Gen- | eral French in command of the force in Cape Colony. APPEAL FOR BOERS. PRETORIA, June 4.—Generals Botha |and Delarey and other Boer leaders will start for Europe shortly for the purpose of raising funds for thesdistressed burgh- ing president of the Transvaal, joined General Botha in addressing an open let- ter to the burghers. After referring to the courage which they had displayed and to their brave deeds in the fleld he called on them to work together for the social and spiritual advancement of the country. General Botha remarked relative to the termination of the war: “It is the happlest day of my life since I left school.” The Boers do not anticipate the least difficulty in_bringing in the various com- mandoes. The work of returning the men | to their wives, children and farms will, | however, be heavy and difficult. It is im- possible to send them straight to the veldt. It is absolutely necessary, at this time of the year, to have warm shelter, and wooden huts have already been oxdered from Cape Town to be delivered in sec- tions for each family. Those who are un- able to return to their former avocations will be temporarily supported by the Gov- ernment. The ballot of the Boers at Vereeniging resulted ‘In 554 votes in favor of surrender and six against it. The Boer delegates. who during the peace negotiations were stiff, formal and unfriendly, are now ex- tremely cordial. All the commandants are returning to their commandoes in or- der to explain the situation. FRIENDS OF KITCHENER. Lord Kitchener's address to the Boer delegates at Vereeniging, in which the commander in chief said that if he had | been one of them he would have been | proud to have done so well in the fleld as they had done, made the best possible impression/ and drew forth a hearty re- sponse from General Beyers, the chaic- | man of the Boer conference, who ex- pressed the pleasure the Boers expe- rienced at meeting Lord Kitchener as a | friend, adding that they had fought so long against him that they had acquired full appreciation of his worth. The departure of the Boer commanders from Vereeniging for their various dis- tricts was marked by remarkable scenes of fraternization. The trains conveying the Boers started late, and the night be- | ing extremely cold the ‘sentries along the railroad track lighted huge bonfires, around which groups of Boers and Brit- ons gathered, forming a hignly pictur- esque scene. The late opponents joined in | such songs as “Hard Times Come Again No More” and ““Old Folks at Home,” the | British soldiers and the burghers outvy- ing one another in demonstrations of joy. In brief, the scenes at the departure of the trains resembled nothing so much as the starting of huge picnic partles. The same signs of rejoicing were wit- nessed throughout the Rand. Flags were | displayed everywhere and thanksgiving | services were held in all the towns. Clergyman Hurled From Bicycle. SAN JOSE, June 4—Rev. H. Melville Tenney, pastor of the First Congrega- tional Church, was seriously injured while riding a bicycle in the Normal square, and is now_confined to a bed in St. Luke's Hospital.

IMPORTS FORGE OF EASTERN MEN Santa Fe to Replace the San Bernardino Strikers. —_—————— Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN BERNARDINO, June 4—The strike situation at the Santa Fe machine shops in this city took a new turn this evening and there is strong talk of trouble here. Late to-night a carload of boflermakers arrived from the East and will be set at work in the morning, unless prevented by the strikers. The men were held all day at a little station on the desert so that they might be brought into the city and installed in the shops under the cover of darkness. It is said that another carload is on the way from the East and will ar- rive here sometime to-morrow night. The boilermakers did not learn the news until about 10 o'clock this evening and at once went into conference to decide as to what action they should mk: At a 2 v had not adjourne e o oY s "sorved_ with written notice from the head office of the rallroad company.in Los Angeles this afternoon to the effect that he was discharged and would not again be employed at this point.
