AN EDITOR'S EXPERIENCE In the Treatment of Humours With More Than Magical Effect with CUTICURA REMEDIES. A Remarkable Testimonial From a Most Intelligent and Trustworthy Lady, “A tumor came on my neck and in a day or two it was as large as half an orange. 1 was very much alarmed for fear it was malignant. My friends iried to persuade me to consult my physician; but dreading that he would insist on using the knife I would not consent to go. Instead I got Cuticura Resolvent and Cuticura Ointment. I took the former according to directions and spread a thick layer of the Oint- ment on the swelling. On renewing it T would bathe my neck in very warm water and Cuticura Soap. In a few days the Cuticura Ointment had drawn the swelling to a head, when it broke. Every morning it was opened with a large sterilized needle, squeezed and bathed and fresh Ointment put - on. Pus and blood and a yellow, cheesy, tumorous matter came out. In about three or four weeks' time this treat- ment completely eliminated the tumor. The soreness that had extended down into my chest was all gone, and my reck now eeems to be perfectly well. “About five or six years ago my sis- ter had a similar experience, used the Cuticura Remedies with magical effect. I am willing you should use my testi- monial, with the further privilege of revealing my name and address to such persons as may wish to substantiate the above statements by personal letter to me.” Chicago, Nov. 12, Sold_throughout the world.

When the case of Fitzgerald Mur- phy, playwright, charged with kick- ing the nose of M. E. Revis, manager of the Hotel Meredith, called in Judge Mogan's court neither the com- plainant nor the defendant’s wife ap- peared to testify for the prosecution. 1‘ { But there did appear for the defense one Joseph Callahan, an actor at the Majestic Theater, who testified that he | had known Mr. Murphy “on and off” for a dozen years, and had never seen } him drunk, but always found him a | man of admirable temperament. Of | the defendant’s domestic life, how- | ever, Mr. Callahan could only repeat | what he had heard others say, and that was invariably to the efteu that | | conjugal felicity existed in the Mur- | 'ph\ household. Case continued until Saturda and subpenaes issued for | Mrs. Murphy and Mr. Revis. | \ . e 1 | Miss Trixie Hunter and Miss Nellie | Conway, arrested for _vagrancy at | Fourth and Stevenson streets, | sured Judge Cabaniss that it was the | debut in the Police Court and he took « their word for it and dismissed them { with a caution. That they were novices there was no doubt, for instead of | hastening to the street, as prior ex- perience would have taught them to do, they ascended to the City Prison and were puzzling the desk sergeant when an officer of the court happened | to arrive and convinced them that they were at liberty to depart. e Dr. . A. Ambrosew ian physician res street, was arrested on complaint his wife, Gertrude, who thinks mentality dulgence in opiates. He threatened to | kill her, she informed Judge Mogan, and she would like to have him sub- | jected to examination by alienists. During her recital the defendant, bearded and frock coatéd, gazed at his environment in a bewildered way. He was ordered into custody until Sat- urday, and if by that time his mind is not improved he will be sent to the In- sanity Commissioners for investiga- tion. , a retired iding at £70 Mi his is impaired by excessive in- | | Joseph Royder also showed such | symptoms of a mind diseased that he | was remanded for examination as to his sanity. He challenged Manager Harrison of the Sutro Baths to a duel with pistols and then informed Judge Mogan that the defi was seriously in- | tended, as he desired to kill Mr. Har- rison, but in fair fight. He was dis- | charged from his position as an a tendant at the baths and sought ser- | guinary reprisal. { | - e | Thomas E. Brady, charged with | street-begging, pleaded half guilty be- | fore Judge Cabaniss and was given | twenty-four hours’ imprisonment. He had begged, he claimed, but as the | complaining policeman had not caughl him in the act he considered himself only half guilty of the offense speciflc- ally alleged. John H. Montgomery, a real estate agent from Oakland, charged John | Doyle and Frank Roberts with having | | robbed him of a purse containing $24 65 | night before last in a saloon at Fourth and Folsom streets. Judge Mogan has set next Saturday for the taking ul’ testimony. { Peter Canelleas and Chris Malens are | natives of sunny Greece and rival deal- | ers in fruits on the first block of Fourth | street. They met at Davis.and Oregon streets early yesterday morning and engaged in a wordy war which devel- oped into the more serious aspect of a duel with vegetables as weapons. Wit- nesses of the encounter testified before Judge Mogan that while the fight was in progress the air was laden with gar- den and orchard products hurled at each other by the combatants and that when a policeman stopped active hus»\ tilities by arresting both of them they were sorry sights to behold. Slgnur‘ Canelleas’ ammunition was confined to | tomatoes until he was driven from h151 base by the shower of cantaloupes cast | with remarkable accuracy of aim by | Bignor Malens. Squashes, egg fruit and artichokes were.also freely ex- changed. In view of their mutual will- ingness to pay for all the “truck” spolled by them and in consideration | of their necessary purchase of new outer garments, the defendants were dismissed wuh the usual reprimand. May Torre, a petite brunette com- | plained that her life was made a dreary waste because of the unwelcome at- | tentions to which she was subjected by | Emiglio Castagnino, a house painter. | For two vyears he had been her| “steady,” she said, when she wearied | of his company and politely but firm; ly informed him that their relation- ship must cease. Instead of taking his dismissal in kindly spirit he pressed his suit more ardently than ever be- fore and at home, 1821 Dupont street, and abroad she was pestered by him. She hated to drag the matter into court, but the man had become such an importunate bore that his restraint by law was absolutely essential to her pursuit of happiness. The defendant, a stalwart fellow, tried to make it appear to Judge Mogan that the girl had exaggerated her grievance, but she faced him, support- ed by her mother, and made him vir- tually confess that since she first pre- sented him with the mitten her recep- tion of his advances had been discour- aging. The Judge pronounced Mr. Castag- nino gullty of disturbing the peace of an individual and postponed sentence indefinitely, so as to afford him oppor- tunity to show by his conduct that he can shun the object of his unrecipro- cated adoration. —_—— FOREIGN HARBOR SAME AS HIGH SEAS? Important Question Raised Before Commissioner Heacock in the Case of the Schooner Vine. Is the deck of an American vessel on the high seas when she is lying in a foreign harbor, so far as statu- tory crimes are concerned? is the question which United States Com- missioner Heacock will pass upon on Saturday. The question was raised yesterday during the examination of Captain Olaf Anderson of the Ameri- can schooner Vine. The charge against him was that of beating and wounding John Saunders, his kanaka steward. The beating was proved by the testimony, but as the vessel at the time was lying in a harbor of the Caroline Islands the defense raised the point that the offense had not been committed on the high seas, Authorities on this point will be sub- | mitted to-day and the decision will be rendered on Is z } The Little Fellow’s Shop THE SHOP THEY OWN AND DELIGHT IN TRADING IN......

In doing so his right arm was crippled by a fragment of a shell, but he bore the colors proudly in his left hand at the head of his regiment during the remainder of the engage- ment. After the battle his arm was amputated. L e ——— The Newsy Weekly. The Saunterer tells in this week's | Town Talk of the deserted Irish castle built for Mrs. Eleanor Martin.

Justice of the Peace Van Nostrand yesterday fined ‘‘Jake” Rauer $5 for contempt of court and threatened to put him under arrest. The incident occurred during the trial of the suit of Rauer against E. F. Frasier to re- cover $10 alleged to be due as a bal- ance on a promissory note made out to Catherine McCracken. In giving her testimony Mrs. McCracken testi- fied that Frasier had pald her $90 on the note and she had assigned the claim for $10 to Rauer. Later Frasier paid her the $10, at the same time saying: “You better take this money, for if Rauer gets his hands on it you will never see it again.” Rauer glared at Frasier in the court- room and applied a vile epithet to him in an audible whisper. Judge Van Nostrand heard it and sald: “Mr. Rauer, I fine you $5 for con- tempt of court and I have a good mind to send you to jail.” Rauer promptly produced the $5 and apologized to the court. . —_—————————— Three Dolbeer Depositions.

He made his exit from the Hall of Justice as quickly as possible and when some one shouted to him that = Detectives ‘Dinan and ‘Wren were waiting for him on the cor- ner he shot across Kearny street as fast as he could run in the direction of Chinatown, Kennedy’'s case is a celebrated one. He is said by the police to be the worst of the gang of six desperadoes impli- cated in the policeman's murder. Ken- nedy held up a Japanese a few min- utes before the murder and it was the report of a shot fired at the Japanese | by Kennedy that brought Robinson | upon the scene. Kennedy was tried and convicted by a jury in Judge Cook’s court, but was granted a new trial by the Judge, who | was supported by the Supreme Court | on an appeal taken by the District At- torney. The ground taken by the Su- | preme Court was that Kennedy could not be convicted on the uncorroborated testimony of an accomplice, William A. Henderson. After that Kennedy was discharged by Judge Cook, but was | arrested several times and always re- | leased on writs of habeas corpus. Fin- ally the District Attorney submitted the case to the Grand Jury and a new indictment was found against Ken- nedy. The case was assigned to Judge Lawlor’s court. The case came up for trial yesterday morning and Assistant District Attor- ney Ashe, after reading a long state- ment reviewing the case from its in- ception, had to admit that no-new evi- | dence had been procured. He asked for a continuance for ten days till Dis- trict Attorney Byington could be pres- ent. The Judge refused to grant a con- tinuance and dismissed the indictment. Attorney Newburg for the defendant | wanted a jury impaneled and the case tried on its merits, but the Judge de- ! clined to do so. If this had been done | Kennedy would have been’free, but as | it is he can be rearrested if new evi- | dence can be found within the next three months. Kennedy has been an expensive prisoner. He has cost the city in the neighborhood of $10,000. Of the gang implicated in the murder of Robinson, Frank Woods, alias “St. Louis Frank,” is in San Quentin under | sentence of death; William Kauffmann, alias “St. Louis Fat,” is serving a sen- tence of twenty-five years in San Quentin; John Courtney, alias “Lead- ville Jimmy,” is serving a sentence of six years; Willlam A. Henderson is still awaiting sentence; Allen Goucher, allas “Kid” Goucher, is in the Still- water, Minn., penitentiary and will be brouxht here for trial when his sen- tence expires next May, Kennedy, the most dangerous criminal of the sex- tet, is at liberty.
