I 4 Curious CALIFORNIA Story "A lateis-
sue of the Napa county California; Register
has a singular story; aaaI aasa oa .ssao
49,. !" A family residing in the Napa valley
has within a few years past lost five Of its
members by death. By some curious co-in-
cidence, friend residing in San Francisco
has, at each decease, been on a visit to the
family, and the fact has been so remarkable
as to attract notice, and in the minds of
some, create a superstitious dread of him. ?
The year following the third death, the gen.
tleman paid visit to the family, and the la
dy Of the house said in a jocular manner;on
first accosting him, :. What misfortune do
you now bring?" Apparently in good health
at the time in an hour after she was corpse
Recently he paid his accustomed annual Wis
it, and daughter-in-law, who hadsbeen lin
gering with consumption for some time, died
soon after his arrival No blame is attached
to him as an instrument in causing these
deaths, yet that singular fatality to the fam
lily has been attendant upon his periodical
visits is most remarkable In Italy the SUI
perstitious people would believe him to pos
sess the fatal gift of the EVIL eye"
