Does Not Awe.

Judge Hicks yesterday heard the evil
dence in the divorce case brought by
Amanda NJ. Allen against John P.
Allen, a painter and sign painter, charg-
ing him with cruelty and inhuman
treatment. Allen appeared as attorney
for himself, and Mrs. Allen did great
deal more talking than her attorney.
In spite of Judge Hicks efforts the man
and wife fired very spicy epithetS at
each other, while one was on the stand.
The Judge finally threw it out of court
as being outside the pale of civilization.
Mrs. Allen is a good looking woman, as
was also her sister, who appeared as a
witness. She claimed that soon after they
were married her husband induced her
to lead a life of shame, and that she
supported them both in this way. They
live over candy store at POS First
street north. Her husband claimed
that she went into the life of her own
accord. and he could not keep her from
it, though he tried. He also denied
abusing ner.

became alarmed and thought it best to
take the caps from shotgun which was
hanging on the wall of his cabin. He
took down the weapon, when the sailor
drew large dirk knife and sprang upon
his benefactor. Frank defended himself
as best he could, but received seven or
eight cuts. He was finally thrown to
the Aoor, and the sailor raised his knife
togive what would certainly have been
q fatal blow, when two men, who had
been attracted to the scene by the sounds
of the strife, rushed in and pulled the
sailor from the PROSTATE man. Frank
arose, but the eailor who is an expert
knife thrower, took the dirk by
the point and hurled it with great
force at the object of his drunken fury.
The knife struck Frank in the left
breast below the shoulder blade, passing
entirely through his body. The sailor
was overpo wered by the two men, and
when he became sober appeared over
whelmed with grief at what he had done.
He has since nursed the wounded man
with great care, and the chances are in
favor OF Franks recovery. There has
been no arrest and no complaint has been
made, and the old man declares he will
not prosecute his aesailant under any
circumstances. He says he was equally

VALUABLE CARGO LOST.
a Steamer Loaded for Hawai-
Burns at the Dock,

SAN Francisco, November 15.-Fire
was discovered this morning on the
steamer Hawaii, which was lying at the
Oceanic dock ready to sail for Honolulu
today. The steamer had a full cargo,
including much valuable merchandise
intended for the Christmas trade at Hon.
olulu. She was at once towed TO Mission
Rock, and the fire extinguished by
swamping her on the mud flats. The
extent of the damage is not known, but
will probably be considerable. The
Hawaii was formerly named Del Norte,
and she was recently purchased by the
Wilder Steamship Company of Honolulu
for 100000. She was intended for the
inter-island trade.
LATER. .-Examination shows that the
fire was caused by the accidental slack
ing of lime, which was stored in the
hold. Her cargo. which was valued at
1910 900, will probably be total loss, as
1t was necessary to fill the vessel with
water in order to extipguish the flames.
Her hull was not seriously injured. The
loss on the cargo is well covered by in
guranco.
