To-day's Issue of the San Franeisco News Letter is fuil of s=nap and ginger. It comes out in unmistakable manner in the Garnett | matter and it gives Hannon, the Anarchist, a vitriolic scoring. It also tells the truth about the Emperor of Germany’s illuess—some- thing that had not been done here tefore. There is an article, the first of a series, on the abuses of the Chinese Bureau, which will attract attention and cause comment. The Looker On department is' 1yl of good | gossip. It relates why the artists did not at- "tend the Joullin-Peck dinner at the Bohemian Club, and has a host of exclusive storles about prominent people. The News Letter is never dull. All its edi- torial matter is to the polnl nd_its com- ments sharp and snappy. Its political news is Guoted everywhere, and it 1s looked upon an autharity in soclal, dramatic, literary, fnanclal and insurinee Ll‘ne- Ihe insurance page is especially good this weel All the automobilists in town lcok to the News Letter for the latest auto news, To Arrange for Reception.

Katherine Nowland of Los Gatos will come in for $1300 in a lump and $20 a month for life as the result of a decision handed down by the Su- preme Court yesterday. Susanna Brown was the wife of Miss Nowland’s half-brother. When Mrs. Brown died | she left $5000 to be invésted for the benefit of Katherine Nowland. It was directed in the will that the beneficiary should receive $20 a month. That was in September, 1899. The executors refused to pay the monthly installments until the estate should have been distributed. The Su- preme Court declares that Miss Now- land is entitled to $20 a month dating from the death of Mrs. Brown. The winner of this legal battle is a | confirmed cripple without means and there can be no doubt that the court's judgment will be joyful ne S S Hospital Not Blamed. A Coroner’s jury decided yesterday in the case of Kate Gill, who killed her- | self last Thursday in the City and County Hospital by swallowing car- bolic acid, that she had committed sui- cide “and that the inmates of the hos- pital were not to blame.” ———————— Smuggler Sentenced.
