The celebrated Sarah Althea, who
for six years has been trying to get
hold of Ex-senator Sharon's millions:
because as she claimed, she had en-.
tered into a marriage .contract with
him, has at last been defeated, and
will now have to retire into obscurity
with nothing more than damaged
reputation and a husband who merely
wanted her for the prospective mil.
lions which he supposed she would get,
and will now in all probability drop
her. The state supreme court of Cal.
ifernia has decided that a marriage
contract which does not include a
martial rite with its duties and obi.
cations before the world, is not suffi.
Gent of itself to show cOnsumation Of
marriage, hence Sarah was not legally
welded to Sharon. This decision will
probably do away with the left-handed
marriages contracted by millionaires
and the women who enter into them
as well.

DEATH OF MINISTER RICE.
He Suddenly Expires From an Attack of
TOnsilitis.

New YORK, May 16th.-Allen Thorndike
Rice, editor of the North An,erican Reuie,o
and new Minister to Russia, died here this
morning. He was to have sailed for his
post yesterday. He was suffering from
sore throat on Monday, and his physician
forbade him to start until better His dis
ease rapidly developed into malignant ton
silitis, resulting in death as stated. No
serious result had been anticipated up to
last night.
Rice is best known for his work in resur-
rectirg the North american ReUiew. He
took the magazine when it had circula-
ton of only few hundred. BY adapting
modern newspaper methds to the maga-
zine, dealing with the live topics of the
day and getting eminent men and women
to write for it, he made his Recie,0 one of
the most important and popular magazines
in the country.
Rice was still a young man, and was
rated as a millionaire. His collegiate edu-
cation was gained in England. He was a
strong Republican in politics. He ran for
Congress on the Republican ticket three
years ago, but was defeated. In March last
President Harrison appointed him Minis
ter to Russia and he was expected to sail
yesterday on the City of Paris with Robert
Lincoln. His illness was announced yes
terday as a light attack of ouinsy, which
would delay his voyage only week. The
announcement of his death caused much
surprise.
The attending physician says that the
CLOTHS swelled suddenly and shut of his
breath. His death occurred at AM.

AFTER EIGHTEEN YEARS.
A Murderer Is Run Down and VIII be
Tried for His Crime.

ATleu Ior his CRIME.
SEATTLE CIV. IT,. May 16th.-Detectiye
w. ID. Russell OF Los Angeles arrived in
this city to-day from Olympia, where he
had been after the signature of Governor
Moore TO a requisition for a murderer
named Richard Lee. The latter is in Jail
at Ellensburg serving out a six-months'
term on another charge of assault to
commit murder. Eighteen wears ago
Richard Lee and William Dunan were
farmers living near Los Angeles.
One day they were playing cards
IN a saloon, and had dispute over the
game. Lee left the saloon in towering
rage, and went home, mile and a half
away. He took down his shotgun and
drew out the charges of bird shot. Then he
loaded his gun carefully with buckshot.
AS he premeditated murder he also pre-
pared for flight by saddling his fieetest
horse, and placing it conveniently near.
He entered the saloon with his shotgun
levelled and shot at Duncan, who was put
few feet away. Duncan threw up his
left arm, and the load went through it and
into his side. The murderer mounted his
horse and fled to the mountains, and man
aged to reach Winnemucca, Nevada.
Soon after arriving there he sent for
his wife, and lived there for sixteen years
oh0SA tuC ldbC "a oClsuCtl JdChsOI. DuT-
ing most of this period he ran a restaurant.
Two years since the authorities at Los An
geles learned of his whereabouts, and in
June last sent Detective Russell to Winnie
mucca after him.
When the officer arrived there the bird
had flown. 1t seems the murderer had
friends in Los Angeles who kept him
posted Since that time Russell has been
hunting for his man. Six months ago he
located him in Ellensburg, where he had
just been sentenced to six months i'm
prisonment for an assault As his term
has now expired. Russell will take the ac-
cused back to Los Angeles, to be tried there
for murder.
There are no less than six witnesses liv-
ing in Los Angeles at present, who saw the
murder committed. Duncan, the MUIR
dered man, left wife and five children.
His three sons and two daughters have
grown up and are wealthy, and naturally de-
sire revenge for their fathers murder.
They have spared no expense in running
down Lee, as the murder was cold blooded
one, and as there are plenty of witnesses
he will doubtless be convicted.
The wretched murderer, Lee, has a wife
and six children, the Oldest seventeen wears
of age, who are living at Winnemucca.

ton OF Mongolian Vice.
SAN FRANCISCO. May 16th.-A most re-
voting case was brought to the attention
of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to children day or two since, and was in
vestigated by officer Holbrook.
lady who is engaged in missionary
work in Chinatown reported that a white
woman with her small children was living
in cooped-up room with Chinaman, at
l006 Dupont street, in building exclu-
sively inhabited by Chinese.
Officer Holbrook went to the place and
found things about as they had been re-
ported. The woman said her name was
Mrs. Clara Vail, or rather that was her
name before she married the Chinaman.
with whom she is at present living. His
name is Yung Pan, and claims to have
been married to the woman at Suisun, Ida
ho, in June, 1885, by Judge Murray, but
had lost the marriage certificate. They had
been here two months. having come from
Idaho.
Mrs. Yung Pan is native of New York.
aged about forty. She says she has been
married to two white men and treated
badly by both. Her Chinese spouse has
always treated her well, and she preferred
Chinese to whites.
In the same room, which is only Sx12,
and was in filthy condition, lived the lit
tie daughter of the woman, named Cora,
who was born April 16, 1882, in Idaho. She
is very pretty. but when found by the off,
Ger was covered with dirt.
The mother stated that the whole family
occupied one bed. She made some obiec-
ton to giving up her child. but the officer
told her that the girl could not be permit
ted to remain there among such surround
ings and associates. She consented to let
her go, and Cora is now being taken care of
by Miss Bertha Rowell, 1416 Sacramento
street.
Mrs. Vail has another daughter, Rosa,
who is a little over 16 years of age, and
quite good-looking. She came with her
mother from Idaho. Upon her arrival,
young Chinaman named All Jim COM
menced to pay q great deal of attention 10
her, and she came to regard him with
considerable affection. All Jim wanted to
marry her, and the girl consented, as did
also the mother. The two have been liv-
ing together for some time in lodging
house on Dupont street. between Sacra-
mento and California, but have not vet
been married. When officer Holbrook in
terviewed the Chinaman, the latter stated
that BY and by marry her. She like
me, like her" He said that she had
gone out that morning but refused to say
where. He was told that he had better
produce her or there would be trouble Tor
him. Last night the girl was brought TO
Miss Rowell's house by her Chinese friends
and left there. Miss Rowell says she is
willing to care for both of the girls.
1t is rumored that the Chinese will sue
out writs of habeas corpus, and endeavor
to regain possession of the children.

THE CRUISER CHARLESTON.
Her Trial Trip was Not Success-Pro-
posed Changes.


posed Changes.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 16th.-Since her re-
turn from sea the cruiser Charleston has
been lying at Mission Rock, but to- morrow
1t is expected that she will be moved to the
Union Iron Works, where the necessary
changes in her machinery will be made
The crew, that were aboard of .her on the
trial trip have been discharged, the ma
chlnlsfs have returned to their usual occu-
pstions, the Naval Board has departed for
Mare Island and the vessel Is now in charge
OF the watchmen. As to when the next
trip will occur, Mr.. Scott could not say. 1t
might be only month before the cruiser
again put to sea, it might be six weeks or
II might be two months.
As before stated, the main fault of the
vessel lay in the heating of the cross head
slide OF her forward engine. 1t has not yet
been determined how this defect will be
remedled, as there are two ways in which
1t can be done. One way is to take the
steel slide out completely and replace it
with one of bronze, and the other way is to
cut down portion of the slide over which
the cross head PLAYS, and fasten a plate of
bronze upon it. No matter which plan is
determined upon it will take some time to
make the alterations, particularly as the
slide OF the other engine will be treated in
the same manner. The managers of the
works have also determined to place new
and larger vacuum pumps in her as, not
withstapding all that was said to the con-
trary. those employed on the trial trip
failed to give complete satisfaction. This
work Will be done at the same time that
the slides are fixed, SO that no extra DELAY
Will be Incurred
