RUINED BY CHINESE LOTTERY.
A San Francisco Man Goes Crazy and
HIS Family Turned Out of Doors.

San Francisco Chronicle: Eleven dave since
the owner of the property at No. 538 Green
street swQce out a writ OF disposseesion
agaiust Israel Isaac Ezekiel and his family,
consisting of a wife and five children, VINO
have been nou-psying tenants for some
months. Ezekiel Pers has been in the Stock
ton Ins Al Asylum up TO some three
weeks ago, and since his discharge as
cured has again become insane. The
Oldest of the five children has not
yet attained it's seventh birthday,
and this combination of circl instances
aroused a feeling of compassion in the
attaches of the sherif's ofic- and they put
off the eviction until yesterday, the last day
allowed by law for the disposseesion wri. to
be executed. 1t was placed in the hands of
two deputy-sheriff., and when they proceeded
TO the house they saw Ezskiel Just jumping
out Of. a. back window of the kitchen,
where he had been beating his wife during
Que Of his insane moments. Follow
ing him out on the street, he sssailvd
them and the officers were Obliged 10
handcuff him and convey him to the Home
Of the lnebriates, The officers then notified
an officer OF the Humane Society of the sad
condition Of Mrs. Ez akiel and her babies,
and ne Interested the Hebrew Eureka b.
nevolent Society in her behalf, and had
rooms and food furnished for them. In the
afternoon Ezekiel wss taken before the Com.
missioners of Lunscy, and was RENTED to
the asylum. His lunacy is the result Of
an indefatigable devotion 10 Chinese
lottery. Some years ago he was quite
we'll TO DO, bat squsndered his entire COM
petence and ruined his business by neglect in
pursuit of the flick pagan goddess of fortune.
For a long time past every available dime
would be invested ia lottery tickets and when
ever he failed TO draw a prize he returned
home and beat his long suffering wife. Yes
terday morning her face bore a long, ugly
wound from the effects of his last idiotic bru-
tality

SOUTH
whisky the Great Draw back 10 Their
~ q Race

The r.. Rev. J. W. Beckwitb, the Episco-
pal Bishop Of Georgia, preached at Chicago
last Sunday. After the sermon a reporter had
a talk with him in regard TO the progress of
the negroes in The South in a religious and
general way. The greatest drawback, !" said
Bishop Beckwitb, els % b. found upon the
rice plantations. There the negroes are the
most wild, aud there they are less sus-
ceptible to the civilizing influence Of the
whites. The trouble there ID the grog shops.
At every crossroads where there is a planta.
lion you will see a little shsnty where whisky
is dispensed. There the negroes who work
hard for SIX days will spend all their fair
weeks earnings for liquor. There they on
eregate all Sunday, and it denoralizes them.
We are doing vast good among the negroes
through the churches in the south. The
Methodists have a large institution in Geor-
gia for educatieg color preachers, and we
have a similar one in North Caroline. Al
the next general convention, TO be held in
Octob-r, something will be done in this di-
~rection. The last of this month there will
be a conference of southern Episcopal bishops
at the Suwanee University, in Tennessee, to
consider the best methods TO further the
Church among the negroes. l have in my do
cese three or more negro Church schools, two
missions and one parish; but my theory is
that there is not 80 much to be done through
the parishes az in the schools. There We can
get the young and educate them, and get
them divorced from the superstitions OF Inc
plantations"

DESTROYING
The Damage Done the New Streets by
for Pipes.

In several portions of the city workmen
were busy yesterday and for several days
past in tearing up the new stone pavement
to lay town pipes. On Monroe street, from
Third t. Main on the south side, the stone
blocks have been taken up for a breadth Of
three or four feet. On Main street, from
Union south, in several placed wide and deep
wells have been dug. Like places, which
were dug several months ago in various
parts of the city, the g ones afierward being
replaced, are now in hollowp, and the infer
ence is that those now being dug out will re-
suit the same way. Ii was remarked by sev-
eral yesterday that the Nicolson was ruined
ia that manner, and there is a strong
feeling everywhere against il. On Union
street the gas and water companies were
not fed 10 lay down their pipes before the
pavement was put down, but like precau-
tions were not taken elsewhere.
