Not long ago, a gentleman riding down
on the train with Bishop Whitaker ask
ell if the statement made in the Ar
gonaut that the Episcopalians of Cali.
tornia owed Bishop Kip about $50, 600
was true. The bishop said he did not
think the amount was over $4,000.
"How came that much to be owed?.
asked the quizzical layman. "WelP'
replied the bishop )" l think ! can e1-
plain the matter. You ste, Bishop Kip
is also rector OF the Church of the Ad'
vent. The parish thought the bishop''s
salary from the Diocese of California
was enough to keep him in good style,
80 tho Parish of tho Advent paid him
nothing; then the Diocese OF California
thought that his salary as rector OF the
Church of the Advent was enough with
out any diocesan assistance, 80 they
paid him nothing. and of course, be
tween the two his salary fell short.

Alta late hour on Saturday night
Michael Figone, all Italian, was arrest
ed by officer Vickers, and on Sunday
morning was fined $40 and costs for
drunkenness and disorderly conduct,
that being the charge preferred by the
officer. When arrested the man was in
an unconscious condition and the ser
vices Of a physician were called, who
gave it as his opinion that the man
had been severely beaten.
The injured man was afterwards sent
to thes hospital for treatment. Subse-
auent events led to the belief that the
man had been beaten by some roughs

ing in the arrest of William McCollom,
the bartender at Carrol's saloon on
Front street, who was given q partial
hearing last night at the Municipal
Court. Samuel W. Dibble testified to
seeing the accused strike the Italian
twice with a stick or cane, after he( the
Italian) made two attempts as IT to
draw a weapon. He heard a pistol shot
fred and saw the Italian fall.
Charles A. Robb, Thomas Garraghy
and John b. Harrison testified as being
witnesses OF part of the fracas but did
not see McCollom strike the man.
| After the revolver was discharged at
McCollom, tho Italian fell and a
crowd soon gathered. Officer Vickerr
soon arrived and assisted by McCoilom
the man was taken to the hall. Before
tho shooting some one had hit the prls-
oner with a stone. DR.. Springer testl'
fed that he had atte nded Figone since
he was taken to tho almshouse. He
considered his worst injury to be pail
of black eyes and thought he would gel
we'll. He had been stupid from the
j first and would not say anything.
He could not state whether the mai
was acting or whether he was really
stupefied from the effects of bruises o.
drink.
Dr.. Grimshaw testified that he was
called in to attend the Italian when he
was irst arrested. Finding the mar
stupefied he administered some lc'
water, which partially recovered him
and he muttered, "too much ice watof' :
He thought, however, the man was
badly hurt, although his wounds migh h
be of such o nature that no one coult
predict the future result.
Harry Sharpley, Esq, counsel for tn
defense, offered two witnesses, Rober

strike the Italian. The evidence al

character, and as an important witnes
was absent, tho prisoner was held II
