Partioularso Of the Death of Henry
N. Davis, Who Was Killed by
tho Care at San Diego oalo
last Week.

The National City & Otay train
which left the foot of Fifth street,
San Diego, at 2 :lJ o'clock p. III. yes
terday run into and killed man at
Nineteenth street. The conductor Of
the train was Sam Mearne, the engin-
eer Walter Upwood and the fireman
A. Washington. 1t appears that the
man was observed by the engineer
walking along the track towards Ma
tional City with his head bowed
down and apparently obllviOus to
his surroundings. The engineer
rang the bell, but as no attention was
paid to it by the man the whistle was
blown repeatedly and as the engineer
momentarily expected him to step
from the track the speed of the train
was not lessensd. AS the train was
almost upon him, the engineer saw
that something was the matter with
the man, and immedialy reversed his
his engine, at the same time whistling
down breaks. 1t was too late, how
ever, and the pilot struck him while
the train according to the engineers
statemenD was running at the rate
of about six miles per hour. AS near
a. could be seen he was thrown back
upon the pilot and from there to one
side where he lay without movement.
The train was stopped and the body
was taken aboard and returned to
the city. lie was taken to Breezo &
Byers' undert aking rooms and ex-
amined and It was found that his neck
was broken, his shoulder disiointed,
his right arm between the elbow and
shoulder fractured in several places,
the left side crushed in as though
run over by the wheels. His face
had received but few bruises. The
corners inquest will be held at 81
o'clock this, morning,
Upon inquiry it was found that the
mans name was Henry NJ. Davis,
aged about 30 years and native of
Hopkinsville, Christian county, Ken
lucky, where he was grocer for
five years previous o coming to Cal
ifornia. lie had been in the State
two year, and was engaged in the
real estate business with his brother,
Charles Davis, on f street, between
Fourth and Fifth streets. lie WAS
unmarried, aud for the last few
months has not beOn engaged in any |
businass. Three months ago his
brother Charles got married an de-
parted fer Kentucky. The deceased |
was preparing to join them there, and
to leave in few days.
He leaves a mother and sister in
the city, but no property. The rea-
son he did not hear the train was be-
cause he was afflicted with deafness.

whilst DR.. liensons lecture on "FOols'
for Friday night is placed at fifty
cents, they will sell season tickets fol-
their winter course of six popular lee
lures, at one dollar and fifty cents.
This is extremely low, and tickets are
more valuable from tho fact that
they arc transferable. The Chatau-

LAND AND THURMAN
POLE WILL BE
RAISED.
The City Democrats at Work.

The Buckner Democratic Club has
made arrangements for grand dem
onstration at the Court House, on
Saturday, October goth. The enthu-
siasm which Is prevailing all over
Kentucky is not wanting in Hopkins
vile and Christian county. There is
general desire to overcome or cut
down the Republican majority in
this county, and the working force of
the Democracy has been greatly aug
mented by many good members of
the party, who have heretofore been
apathetic, coming up and putting
their shoulders squarely TO the wheel.
This is encouraging to the "boys"
who have been sin the trenches" so
long expecting achievements. Camp
fires are blazing all over the county,
and if the county Republicans don't
shear something drop" on the 9th of
November they will feel terrible
jar.
The Buckner Club succeeded in
getting Capt. w. 4. Ellis to cancel a
previous engagement to be present on
the occasion. Hon. James A. Nc
Kenzie will also be present, and Hon.
John Young Brown, of Henderson,
has been invited and is expected TO
come over and address the people.
If a more splendid array of talent
will be together At any other point in
the state than the above, we have not
yet heard of it. Now, Democrats,
come out and take pull at the pole
on the Doth and do your whole duty,
and youdejected Republicans, who
can so plainly see the handwriting
on the wall that foretells your po-
litical doom, throw down the arms of
your warfare and join our ranks for
we would do you good.

something to be seen through the OPP
ching of the cover at the back end OF

hoped that the man, whatever his
calling, has something in store for
the good of the inhabitants of Padu-

Adipose and Temper.
San Francisco Chronicle.

san francisco chronicle.
Thin women are dangerous. A fat
woman has got to be good-tempel ed and
easy-going. l think temper is all in the
bones, anyway. and when a woman is
fat the temper becomes absorbed before
it gets to the surface. But when a
woman's thin the temper is right there
on the surface. If ever fat woman has
high temper it is awful. She never
cOols. A thin woman coOls quickly. but
she heats up again just as quickly. A
thin woman with good temper comes
just as near being an angel as anybody
can on this earth-if she isn't too thin.
A thin woman can dress in white robe,
and if you put harp into her hand
she'll look exactly like an angel. Could
fat woman ever look like an angel in
any dress? No. AS for man, the idea
that they eyer make men angels is alb
surd. They might make statuary out of
some of them, but not many, after all:
and-weIl-how does the best-looking
man in the world look when he gets out
of bed to see where fire is or to light
the gas? But a thin woman is inSidious.
When woman has stout, full figure,
there's no expression to her. She's
series of curves that don't change.
No. There's something about thin
woman you can't describe that is dan
gerOuS to the peace of man. Still peo-
pie do love fat women often. But, l
suppose, after all, its mainly question
of you, and not the woman.

Legal Robbery.

Congressman Macdonald.
Anticipating the inquiry, will state
that | would, if l could, place coal, iron,
sugar, hemp, iute and sisal grass and
other necessaries on the free list, and
restore some of the taxes which capital
and wealth had to pay before the Re-
publican party reduced the annual in
ternal revenue from 1909, 266, GOO to S116,-
100000 (duling the last twenty years it
was in power, as stated by the gentle
man from Indiana Mr.. Browne]. This
reduction that the honorable gentleman
boasts of was made by relieving wealth
of its share of the burdens of the gov
eminent which protected it, and trans
ferring it to the poorer to pay. Under
the law taxing incomes there were but
400, 10 persons out of about $4,000, 900
taXed,paying upon an aggregate income
of S707, 100000. and that had to be abol-
iShed at the behest of projections" as
an odiouS war tax" The tariff taxes
on the necesSarieS of life were retained,
although as far back as 1866 they were
denounced upon this floor by Hon. John
A. KaSSon. then member, in more
vigorous language than we now use.
He said:
What you call protection" amounts,
therefore, to a system of legal robbery.
In order to make the United States rich
you must diminish the cost of your
manufactures.
