While testifying regarding his ac- tions during the, time when the vessel was lying on the rocks and after the boats had been sent away early Tues- day morning, in reply to a query from District Attorney Frye as to Low he came to be aboard the liferaft, Connors | stated that he was thrown to the deck’| | of the Valencia as a result of the main | topmast being carried away and on | striking the deck a big sea carried him | over the side and onto the raft. | The witness sald that Captain John- son told those on the vessel to get | aboard the rafts. He stated that he| saw the master wave his arm andl shout to those on the vessel's deck to | get aboard his raft. | The passengers refused to go and | hung back, thus corroborating other testimony previously introduced, show: ing that the passengers apparently preferred to remain on the vessel rather than trust themselves to the merey of the wind and sea. 3 Connors remembered a ship coming in very pear the Valencia on the morn- ing after she struck, which is thought ! 1ast | serious offence. | a ship. | Commissioner | of Wyoming and former Governor S. to be the steamer Edith, so nearly wrecked an hour after the Valencia | went on the rocks.

SACRAMENTO, Feb. 10.—Charles Car- son, one of the Folsom State prison con- | victs who was engaged in an outbreak at that institution one year ago and who was found gullty in the Superior Court on a charge of conspiracy, was to-day sentenced to be hanged.

DENVER, Feb. 10.—District Judge Car- penter to-day quashed the indictments against J. H. Edmondson, former presi- dent of the Denver Savings Bank, charg- ing the embezzlement of $105,000. The court ‘decided that the crime alleged, which was committed in 1903, came under the head of statutory felony, against which the statute of limitations runs in eighteen months. If it had been common law felony Edmondson would have been obliged to stand trial. There are still pending other indictments which charge Bdmondson with conspiracy to reb the bank.

HONEY, Ex-Treasurer of the State of Wisconsin, is a man of wide acquaintance and extensive experience. He has used Peruna in his own fam- ily with the most gratifying results. He gives it unqualified mdorsement as an eflicacious catarrh remedy. It is just such testimony as this which has given Peruna such a high standard in the estimation of the Amer- ican public. There is no ble way to gainsay such frank and genuine testimony. The only way to account for such testimony Is the fact that Peruna really does what is claimed for it.
