An Old MANS Vow.

tSsn Francisco Chronicle, November 25,h.l
Mrs Mollie Ellen Saunders died at her
homo in this city last week after brief
illness. She was the youngest and only
surviving child OF Ellie Ellen, an old
resident of Truckee. Her death recalls
a striking incident, which is related as
taking place six or seven years ago.
In 1883 Ellie Ellen, hale and hearty
pioneer of nearly sixty years Of age,
was stricken with paralysis. His re-
coyery astonished his friends and the
physicians. The doctors stated that a
second shock would certainly cause his
death. At that time the old gentleman
had three daughters living, one of them
an inmate of the State Insane Asylum,
at Napa. Anticipating the death OF
their father, the other two daughters en-
gagged in frequent quarrels concerning
the distribution of his estate. These
differences coming to the ears Of the old
man aroused hatred Of his children, and
in q fit of anger he made a most solemn
VOW that he would outliye them. In
1886 Mr.. Ellen received a second
shock of paralysis, which left him men
tally and physically incompetent. He did
not die, however, and is alive to-day,
aud rational enough at times to mutter
that be will outliye his children. I'm
known to him the old man has fulfilled
his solemn VOWS of seven years ago. for
with the death of Mrs. Saunders the last
of his children passed away. The de-
mented daughter in the asylum died
three years ago. A married daughter
named Mrs. Regli was the second to die.
Her two children died subsequently and
the husband and father was not not long
in following. The nearest next OF kin
TO the paralytic old man are three grand
children-Jennie, Emma, and Mollie.

SMALL FIRES ON SUNDAY.
A Railroad Trestle and Dwelling Catch,
hut Neither Burn Much.

n anu D"N''hh NHNN"s
but Neither Burn Much.
About half-past o'clock Sunday
morning the railroad trestle on Byrd
street between First and Second caught
fire from live coal dropped by pass
ing locomotive. The part OF the struc-
ture that was burning was about twenty
five feet above the ground and about $50
feet from its eastern terminus. The ties
were saturated with oil, and although it
was raining hard at the time the flames
had made good Roadway when the de-
partment arrived, having been called out
by an alarm from Station 62, corner
Third and Byrd streets. The fire was
speedily e1tinguished without any Sc
rious damage or detention Of trains,
about forty of which, including shifting
engines, pass during the day.
The roof of Mr.. Frederick @. Brauer's
bathroom at his residence, 2l00 Venable
street, was ignited from stove-pipe
about half past Sunday afternoon. An
alarm was turned in from Box 81, corner
of Venahle and Mosby streets, and the
flames promptly extinguished. The loss,
estimated to be about $50, is fully cover
ed by insurance.

for short while yesterday morning,

term Of the Circuit Court.
The suit OF the Bonsack Cigarette-Ma-
chine Company, of Lynchburg, against
Allen & Ginter, incorporated, is set for

amount involved is quite large and
much interest attaches to the trial be-
cause of the brilliant array of counsel.
