Gent OF S0noma county, committed suicide at
the Coso House, in this city on he 18Th OF
June, leaving about -. 100 i'm coin and drafts
on his person, and q written request that the
money be sent TO his relatives. He omitted %
say in the note where lis relatives lived. The
facts OF his death ana last req aest were repab-
llshed in the evening papers. Since this rub
hcatlon, the coronsr has received six letters
from people in as many different states, laying
claim 10 the money. 10 each case q member OF
the family NAMED william Ross, corresponding
exactly IN personal appearance with the de-
scripion Of the suicide, had been absent for the
same number OF years that the suicide was
stated to have been In this country, and was
lat heard OF before bis dfath in SOnona In
fact, there WAS no doubt thai the suicide WAS
the much mourned relative of the writer in
each case. Unfortunately fOr these would be
beTeayed writer's claims, Il has been definitely
ascertained that the suiaides relatives live IN

$1,000 IN RAG BAG.--A lady in Lynn, Mas
sachusetts, last week sold bag OF rags 20 a
peddler. She was perfectly we'll satisfied with
her bargain until she remembered that in order
to guard against thieves and robbers she hal
secreted IN the bag two bank books, notes. and
so forth, TO the value OF about - 900. But con-
sldeTing how careless she had been she was
lnckler than she deserved 10 be; for, with all
the energy and seuteness OF despair, she sought
Tor that peddler, found him in Salem, and re-
covered her treasure. We might offer a moral
but II would be OF no use. Women who hide
bank books in rag bags are beyond the reach OF
all the morals in the world.
