NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC The Goodycar Mackintosh Co., one of the oldest and most reliable manufacturers of Mackintoshes and Rainproof Gar- ments, has been forced to retire from business. In consequence of which we have rented temporarily the building at 997 and 999 Market street, corner Sixth, to in- uug,;luratle this great special sale. Never in the history of this Coast has the public been offered an opportunity to secure such values. : Think of it, with the rainy season so close, and a chance at hand to secure one of these garments for yourself and friends, which is the most useful part of your wardrobe for the winter season. To think of our 28 retail stores throughout the United States, which have been eclosed, and the entire combined stock has been placed in this massive building! All we have to say is, that if prices are an indueement to the California pub- lic we will have no trouble to dispose of our entirz stock in a short time. Note earefully every item of the following remarkably low prices: ADVERTISEMENTS.

No less than three Afro-American names were on the trial docket, with a sep- ‘arate offense registered against each, and the assemblage outside the rail whs very largely made up of persons ¢f Ethiopian ancestry and varied social standing. Put as two of the cases came from the Barbary Coast the ma- jority of dusky spectators were of the select set of that quarter, the remain- | der being sympathizing accuaintances of Robert Mitchell, who broke the arm of a white co-laborer named G. W. De- ment by viciously striking that mem- { ber with a shovel. That case will be | heard later. Then came a FPacific street. saloon- keeper, who was accused of having disturbed the peace by addressing loud and vulgar language to a feminine habitue of his establishment, and after he had been dismizsed with a severe reprimand the case of the People vs. Claude Slaughter, charged with shoot- ing at George Stewart, missing him and hitting a'juvenile bystander's leg, was taken up and testimony for the defense heard. There was a perfect thundercloud of witnesses ready to testify that Mr. | Slaughter had been provoked to make a target of Mr. Stewart, who, by thé way, is noted as “‘the champion cake- | walker of the Pacific Slope,” having earned the title in actual contest at one of the local theaters. First came Mr. Miller, who always alluded to the B | defendant as “‘Cconey” Slaughter. Mr. ! Miller was positive that Mr. Stewart !'and his brother were at enmity with the latter they missed no opportunity to “pester” Miss Irene Walker, know- ing that the young woman was much beloved by “Cooney.” il On the eventful night, while the lights . in the Pacific street home of Terp- sichore shone o'er a scene of revelry seldom or never excelled in the annals of San Francisco’s cdlored social func- tions, George Stewart was “friskin’ roun’” and otherwise annoying Miss ‘Walker, when ‘“Cooney” entered and demanded reason for the ungallant per- secution. Instead of explaining any- thing orally, sald Mr. Miller, Mr. Stew- art, who was seated in a chair tilted backward, made a movementhas if he were about to draw a pistol from his hip pocket, whereupon Mr. Slaughfer preceded him and fired two shots. “Muldoon” McDonald, who proudly stated his vocation as “profeshnul prizefightah, sah,” testified that he, too, witnesged Mr. Slaughter “tle up” with 1 | coholic origin and sustenance, and the | | acknowledging affection for the defend- | Mr. Stewart, also the resultant shoot- ing.. #Ah smelt frubble a-comin’, an’, shoah enuff, it came,” said ‘“Muldoon.” After the first shot was fired Mr. Mc- Donald, with true gladiatorial reckless- ness, “mixed in” and grasped the pistol hand of Mr. Slaughter in time to divert bullet No. 2 from its intended target and to pierce the floor instead. Miss Irene Walker, after blushingly ant, told of how the Stewart brothers were in the habit of “peckin’ on™ her every time they saw her, and of how on one occasion they had visited the apartment occupied by her and “busted | in de doah mos’ shamefully” and sub- jected her to other indignities, all of which she related. Then the defendant. of coal-black visage, took the stand and recounted various acts of provocation on the part of the champion cakewalker. *“He an’ his bruddah,” said Mr. Slaughter, “were soah at me ovah some ole trubble, an’ dey allus was a-pesterin’ an’ peckin’ on mah gal. A gemman fr'en’ tole me dat de Stewarts said dey would git me if Ah went to de colored ball las’ Thanks- gibin’ night in a Turk street hall, an' to avoid trubble Ah didn't go. Dey were allus a-provokin’ an’ tryin’ to start suthin'.” Mr. Slaughter did not deny the shoot- ing, nor did he aftempt to show that he did not shoot to kill. He simply plead- ed provocation sufficient to warrant | the deed. The court reserved its decision till to- MOrrow. Miss Nellie Orth, 15 years of age and residing with her parents at 413% Octa- via street, appeared before Judge Mo- gan as complainant against Mrs. Peck, dwelling on Fulton strebt, between Gough and Octavia, and the burden of Miss Orth’s complaint was that Mrs. Peck had displayed a revolver and threatened to shoot her simply because she went into that woman’s yard to set aright a portion of her apparel that had Lecome disarranged while she was at play. A warrant was issued for the ar- rest of Mrs. Peck and the case will be heard to-morrow. H. Digby Johnston, accused of ob- structing pedestrian traffic on Kearny street one evening last week while a clothing store was being boycotted and ordered to appear in court yesterday, failed to appear when the case was i “Cooney” for some time previous to the | celled. but IWalter Temple, attorney, shooting, and that in order to ‘pique | appeared in his stead and asked for an immediate decision. The court declined, however, and gave himself another week to digest the conflicting testi- mony. —e————— Teamster Gorham Drowned. The body of the young man found drowned on the ocean beach a mile south of the life-saving station last Friday was identified yesterday as that of Al Gorham, a teamster, recently employed by the firm of Quimby & Harrelson. Gorham resigned from his position last Saturday. He was very despondent over his losses at the race- track, as he was a heavy bettor, and had been drinking heavily for about a week. He was unmarried and resided on Sixteenth street, near Guerrero. —— e ‘We are selling agerits for fountain vt\ngw.slfltmrhu Cost from !l.fl to $5.00 each. Sanborn, Vail & Co., 741 Market street. . TRAIN STRIKES BUT ESCAPES A ROCK A DISASTER | Passengers on the North Shore Line | Suffer a Jarring by an Accident Near Hamlet Station. SAN RAFAEL, Dec. 12.—The southbound North Shore train was de- railed south of Hamlet Station to-| day. * A serious wreck was narrowly avoided. The passenger train w. en route from Cazadero to San Francisco and when rounding a curve on the bay shore struck a large boulder and | was derailed. The engineer succeeded | in stopping the train before the cars left the track or his engine ran into the bay. The locomotive did not turn | over and no one was injured. Trafic was delayed only a short| time by the wreck. The causeof the | bowlder being on the track was that men had been blasting in the right of way and the rock fell on the rails. Daughters of St. George Britannia Lodge of the Ordér of Daughters of St. George had an énter- tainment and hcliday season bazaar in its hall in the Pythian Castle Décem- ber 1. The membership turned out in full force and the many friends of the ladies were on hand to be entértained and to help swell the number of those who were patrons of the prettily ar- ranged booths. The programme of mu- sic, songs and specialties, including lit- erary efforts. was interesting and en- tertaining. The young ladies during the evening served English tea and cakes to their fellow members and visitors. ADVERTISEMENTS. LIVER ELL, 958 Fifth st., Oaklahd. ELECTRO-CHEMISTRY CURES PAINLESSLY AND MRS.
