Tehachepi, to learn such facts as were
developed during the inquest. The
verdict Of the jury read: eve find that
the deceased came to their death by
reason Of the negligence Of Conductar B.
F. Reid and brakeman John Patton y
He stated that nothing was developed to
fix charge Of criminal negligence upon
Reid who had left the train, as II was
his duty, to get orders. TT can be par
enthetically remarked here that popular
feeling holds Reid entirely blameless of
even constructive negligence Mr..
Hewitt stated that Patton had al
ways been scrupulously faithful and
careful. He further stated that Patton
had sworn that when he left the train to
help young girl who was alone and
without assistance part of the way,
the light in his lantern went out and he
stepped into the Office to re-light It..
When he stepped out moment after,

desire TO extend my thanks and ex
press the gratitude Of the widow Of the
late Charles X. Pierson, as well as my
own sincere appreciation, to the mem
bersl of the Los Angeles Fire Depart
ment and other friends of the deceased
for the devotion and kindness they
showed his memory on Sunday last.
There is grief burdened solace to me
in taking this occasion to testify to the
great loss which all Of those who were
brought in contact with this estimable
young man feel in his nntimely and
awful death. For fourteen years an
employee Of Wells, Fargo & Co., he was
beloved by his superiors and his asso-
ciates. Warm-hearsed. genial, generous,
Charles r. Pierson was all that a manly
man could be. Faithful to his trusts,
strongly attached to his friends, all
kindness and love to his family, he
leaves an aching void in the hearts OF
those he has left behind him who will
carry with them through life recollec-
tions of his many splendid qualities.

Magnetism the New Source of
Health,

DR.. Edwin Robbins, the celebrated
Australian Electric and Magnetic Hea-
Ter, respectfully informs the public that
he has opened an office in the city Of
Los Angeles. DIR. Robbins discards the
use of surgery, drugs, minerals and all
other medicines in his treatment and re.
lies solely on the powers of magnetism
An experience of several years in the
Australian colonies, San Francisco, Salt
Lake City and Denver, in which places
he has treated successfully thousands OF
persons, enables him to assert with con-
fidence that he can cure diseases which
have defied the application of medical
science. Magnetism is the life principle
within us. The air we breathe is
charged with it. 1t is the vital force
emanating from all persons and that
which connects the soul with the body.
In support Of this theory he cures acute
pains instantly, local pains in few
days, and builds up the most shattered
constitutions in short time. DR.. Rob-
bins, who has q worldwide reputation
for his extraordinary cures of all diff
cult and complicated diseases, possesses
power to relieve and cure all kinds of
diseases. DIR. Robbins diagnoses dis
eases free of charge without explanation
from the patient. If you wish referen-
ces, consult the patients now undergo

Los ANGELES DAILY HERALD TUESDAY MORNINGS JAN 49,

ing voice from within the burning car
calling for help, he leaned down and
seeing hands held up, grabbed them
tightly and with strong and muscular
efforts, drew Governor Downey from
the horrible jaws Of the DEATH which
had already opened for him. Thus
Ashe twice saved the life Of his young
wife, that Of Minnie Peterson and that
Of Governor Downey. The story Of his
heroic behavior had gone over the town,
and the reporter called on the gentle.
man at the Pioo House to secure an
interview, but Mr.. Ashe declined to go
into the details of the matter on the
ground that he had done no more than
any other man would have done, and
did not wish any heroism attributed to
conduct which was entirely natural.
As the foregoing narrative, however,
was given in substance by Mr.. Tilton
and Miss Peterson, the splendid disre-
gard Of self and of danger exhibited by
the gentleman entities him to the ad-
miration which such bravery will bring
him. in spite Of his efforts to the con-
trary.
But there was another who acted
heroic part In that fatal drama, and that
was Mrs. Warehouse, who by
sUPERHUMAS ExERrIoNs
Saved the lives Of her husband and her
two children. Mr. Ashe lent her
helping hand. and there Is no doubt that
to his assistance was due their escape.
Miss Ida Brown, though herself Sc
verely hurt dragged her mother from
the wreck and thus saved her life. The
feat was one requiring much more
strength than the young lady could have
commanded under any ether than these
terrible circumstances.
It is with reluctance Tat the writer
turns from the chronicling OF acts OF
superb hero'sm to that OF the sickening
alter facts.

Four bodies, Mr.. Chas. X. Pierson,

figuring mutilation, and hence readily
