Judge Mogan yesterday heard the case agajnst Edward Richards, who shot and killed a saloon-keeper on Pa- cific street 'a week ago Wednesday dur- ing a quarrel over the payment of & bottle of beer. Richards came from Visalia and is a stableman. Della Hunoldstein, the com- plaining witness, who lived for several years with the murdered man as his wife, was the only witness examined. When she was asked if she had wit-' nessed the killing she broke down com- | pletely on the stand and pleaded with Judge Fritz sent Lester Lewis out to the Insanity Commissioners yester- day to have his speedway examined for revolving wheels. Lewis was ar- rested several days ago on the charge of petty larceny.

Few People Know How Useful It Is in Health and Beauty. Nearly everybody knows that char- coal is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier in nature, but few realize its value when taken into the human system for the same cleans- ing purpose. Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not a drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and carries them out of the system. Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions and other odorous vegetables. Charcoal effectually clears and im- proves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic. It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and’throat from the poison of catarrh. defendant’s attorney not to compel her to go over again the events of the trag- | edy. Judge Mogan calmed her with assur- | ances that she would be treated with | the fullest consideration, and she fin- ally pulled herself together and man- {aged to go through the ordeal of an | examination. She was not a witness to | the actual shooting, being in the bar- room at the time the killing|occurred in yard and dumped it out in front of his mother’s house on Mission street.

A Mexican.girl who is known as “Black Maggie”’ was pres- ent during the shooting, and she will be called to testify at the next hearing | of the case. amined on the question of his sanity. o Sadie Murphy, a sweet, wild singer in wu Pacific-street saloon, brought a badly smoked lamp into Judge Fritz's court yesterday and told how Charles Meyers, a piano player in the same re- sort, had, caused the bruise because she failed to get in all the minors while singing *“Mona, I'll Telephone You.” Prosecutor Harris offered the eye in evidence und the Judge admitted it. “I would suggest that the eye be marked by the clerk for identifica- tion,” continued Harris. Clerk Duffy took one ficeting glance at the exhibit und said, Not for me; I think the eye is sufficiently marked now.” Mey- ers was convicted of battery and will be sentenced to-morrow. Two thoroughbred tars were witnesses in Judge Mogan’'s court yesterday against Thomas Turner, another sailor, | who is accused of having tried to re- ! move with a case knife the vermiform ! | appendix of another son of the sea | named Bernard Hansen. Hansen is at | present in St. Mary's Hospital, and it is | believed he will recover. | 'The cutting occurred at the Sailors’ | Home, on Harrison street, and was wit- | nessed by ten or twelve persons. Those examined so far have testified that the deadly assault was entirely without provocation. The testimony of the sail- ors has been taken so that they may pursue their ordinary avocations with- out interfering with the ends of justice ! by removing to distant parts of the Yee Bung is a Chinaman with a sonorous voice and a fondness for rice brandy.

A Buffalo physician in speaking of the benefits of charcoal says: “I advise Stuart’s Absorbent Lozenges to all pa- tients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels and to clear the confplex- ion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is great- ly benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but 25 cents a box at drug stores, and although in some sense a patent preparation, yet I'believe I get Absorbent Lozenges than in any of the ordinary charcoal tablets.” —_— Good News. 915 Market st., has been rented by Olson Bros.

Like sweet bells jangled out of tune, a happy matrimonial experience last-' ing over twenty years Is threatened | with a rupture because Mrs. Kate Man- sion refuses to sell her grocery, at 1300 Sanchez street, at the behest of her | husband, John Mansion. The aged couple have built up quite a prosperous | business by their united exertions. Then the tempter came and whis- pered to the husband visions of wealth in other lines of industry. He found a purchaser for the grocery, but the wife, | with admirable forethought, had the title of the place in her own name and | refused to become a party to the sale. | Her-husband got out his trusty horse pistol, which had seen service in the dark days of the Civil War, loaded it up with stove lids and ax heads and told the partner of his joys and sor- rows that he had “come to the conclu- sion to blow her blooming block off.” She found a policeman who found the husband, and they all found them- | selves before Judge Cabaniss yesterday. Mansion was charged ‘with threats to kill, but in his bent old age he didn’t ! look the least bit like a wild and woolly desperado. He told the Judge he had no intention of shooting up the woman with whom he had traveled for twenty odd years in double harness.- He mere- 1y wished her to sell the grocery, be- cause he believed they could make more nroney in some other line of business. He was allowed to go on a promise of future good behavior. His wife wanted mandatory instructions issued to him to take his clothes and remove forever | from the family domicile, but the Judge refused the request. He told the old woman that he was not justified in -+ MURDER CHARGE AGAINST BUSHNELL IS DISMISSED Accused @f Causing His Wife’s Death, but District Attorney Admits Evidence Is Insufficient. «When the case of Willlam Henry | Bushnell was called in Judge Dunne’s court yesterday to be set for trial As- sistant District Attorney Whiting asked that it be dismissed, as there was not sufficient evidence to convict the defendant. The Judge according- ly ordered that the case be dismissed on_motion of the District Attorney, Bushnell was charged with the murder of his wife, Catherine, at their residence on Seventh avenue on the night of September 11. They had | been drinking and it was alleged that | Bushnell threw a lighted lamp at his | wife and she died from resulting burns. Mrs. Bushnell made a statement to | | Policeman Layne, who took her to the | hospital, that she accidentally over- | turned the lamp, but her father, Pat- | rick Ward, 315 Fifteenth avenue, de- | clared that Bushnell threw the lamp | at her and swore to the complaint charging Bushnell with murder. —_—————————— A New Incorporation.
