Frederick Weekmah Takes Cold
Poison Because of Unrequited
Affection.

AHeotlou
Yesterday afternoon about 2 o'clock
On employe Of McBrattner & Todd, un-
dertakers, told Mr.. McBrattner that one
Of the carpenters was sick in the back
room Of the shop. Mr.. MoBrattner
went back and found Frederick Week.
man in an almost comatose state.
Rousing him he asked what was the
matter? Weekman said "Ohi nothing.
I've only taken Dose" He was asked
what he had taken, but declined to an
wer, saying, Ego and tell her, DR..
Huckins was called and said that Week
man bad either taken opium or morphine
An Antidote was administered aud he
rallied for time. but soon sank back into
a comatose state and died at o'clock.
Coroner Nadeau was notified and an in.
quest was held. It was found that
Weekman was q native Of Nova Scotia;
about thirty years Of age; had been in
California for two years and was an
honest, sober, industrious man. For the
past six months he had been paying at
tention to young lady in this city and
became much depressed. owing to her
refusal to marry him. This lack Of re-
ciprocity on the part of the young lady
was the cause Of Weekman's rash act.
He had often threatened to end his
career, bnt his friends had no idea that
he would put the threat into execution
This makes only three suicides for one
week in this township, with thirteen
other townships to hear from in the
county.

an Omcer of the Law = Huber
BAGS his Came

On Monday, at ll;30 A. NJ, DR.. Won
Bonhurst, of Pomona, went to tho Sher-
ifs Office and related to Under Sheriff
Burdick that he had been robbed of
three diamond rings on the day before
ct Pomona. His account was substan-
TALLY as follows: On Sunday, the 10th,
an elegant appearing gentleman. glib Of
tongue and suave in manner, arrived at
Pomona on the west-bound train. The
stranger gave his name as IL. Lewis,
stating at the same time that he was q
brother to the owner OF the Norman
stations which passed through the day
before, consigned for Sonoma county.
After due inquiries concerning the elm
ate Of Southern California. and the re-
sources Of Pomona, the stranger, between
drinks, intimated o desire to purchase,
not only some corner lots. but diamond
nhg which DR.. Won Bcnhurst wore. The
price was agreed upon and Lewis instead
Of money, accommodatingly drew his
check upon the Los Angeles National
Bank, ,remarking at the same time that "the
bank would BE- only too happy to cash
it," Not content with one ring, our con-
noisseur considered that as checks were
easy TO draw. he coald purchase one or
two more rings. and to the extent of two
other rings the DR.. obliged him,
Lewis again giving his cheek for
one hundred and fifty dollars more. Tho
DR.. came to Los Angeles on the mornings
train, presented the checks aud was in
formed by the bank officers that Mr.. II.
Lewis was 10 them unknown, und that
he had no money there.
Our ubiquitous friend Ed. Huber hap
pening IN at that time, Mr. Burdick
stated the facts to him, and placed the
case in his hands. Ed, with his usual
promptitude, obtained complain. from
the District Attorneys Office, searched
the incoming train and shrewdly OWNED
that his man was about San Bernardino.
He then telegraphed the description Of
the man to San Bernardino. At 4;30 p.
NJ. the answer came that his man was
there and under arrest.
II seems that after leaving Pomona,
Lewis went to San Bernardino, pawned
one ring for $40 and, doffing his elegant
clothing ADD refined ways, assumed the
dress and manner Of granger. Mr..
Huber returned to Los Angeles yester-
day morning with his prisoner. The
case is set for an early day. DIR. Won
