MORE MONEY THAN WIT.
How Turlock Builder Parted With HI
Coin ut the Dock.

How a Turlock Builder Parted with His
Coin at the Dock.
The steamer Oregon sailed yesterday at
10 o'clock from Spear-streeJ Wharf, bound
for Portland and Astoria. Shortly before
she left well-dressed young man about 80
years of age approached Officer Tom Nc
Glynn of the Harbor Police. who was on
duty on the dock aud said, care you good
Judge of jewelry?" The officer ''tumbled"
at once, as he has been asked the same
question a thousand times before during
his service on the wharVes by passenger S
who have been beaten by sharpers just as
they were about to sail
Eyes, Pm good judge" said the officer :;
"let me see what you've bought" Then
the man pulled forth gold watch and
chain worth about 70 cents. He said that
he was going to Oregon on the steamer and
two well-dressed young men, who said they
were going on the vessel, knowing he was
passenger, had asked him to lend them $50
on the watch and chain, which they ayerred
was worth $50. They were short of money,
and wanted to pay freight on their excess
of baggage before leaving. They would
redeem the valuable jewelry on arriving at
Portland. The man loaned the $50. and it
afterward dawned on his mind that he had
been duped.
He handed the officer his card, which
bore the following. Wv. NJ. Palmer. car
penter and builder. Turlock, Call" and
said: 81 have been all round the world
and all over the State, but I'm rank
sucker" He could not describe the men
who had bilked him, but for the officer he
drew on the back of his card diagram of

money and handed him the timepiece be

THE NUMBER THREE.

Various Reasons Which Make 1t Regarded
with No Little Superstition.
There is much superstitious regard for
the number three in the popular mind, and
the third repetition of anything is gener-
ally looked upon as a crisis. Thus an arti-
Gle may twice be lost and recovered, but the
third time that it is lost it is gone for good.
Twice man nay pass through some great
danger in safety, but the third time he
loses his life. Ii, however, the mystic third
can be successfully passed, all is well
Three was called by Pythagoras the perfect
number, and we frequently find It's use
symboIical of Deity; thus, we might men,
ton the trident of Neptune, the three-
forked lightning of Jove, and the three
headed dog of Pluto. The idea of trinity is
not confined to Christianity, but occurs in
several religions.
In mythology also we find three Fates,
three Furies and three GraceS; and coming
nearer to our own times, Shakespeare i'll
PRODUCES his three witches. In publc-h0use
signs three seems to play an important part,
for we frequently meet with Three Cups,
Three jolly Sailors" Three Bells"
"Three Tuns," Three Feathers"-in fact,
that number of almost anything of which
fertile imagination can conceive trio. In
nursery rhymes and tales this number is
not unknown, and if we look back
to the days of our childhood most
of US will call to mind the three
wise men of Gotham, who took a sea
voyage in bowl, not to mention the three
blind mice that had their tails cut off by
the farmers wife. Perhaps there is some
occult power in the number which governs
the division of novels into three volumes
and induces doctors to order their medi-
cine to be taken thrice daily 1t is said
that some tribes OF Sayages cannot count
beyond three; but although they may have
no words to express higher numbers, per-
haps we should be scarcely justified in as
Stunning that they are incapable of appre-
ciating the value of the latter.-N. Y. Her

THE PICKETS OFF.
Sunday a Day of Rest With the
MOiders-COuntry Aid.

The striking molders were serious last
evening after attending the funeral Of young
Cogan, who lost his life on First street last
Thursday neutrality-suspicious., but more hope
full and self-reliant than ever before. An
hour at their headquarters would con-
vince one that they are waiting exDectantly
for settlement of the strike at their own
terms. Yesterday was an off day with
them. The piekets at the various foundries
in the Manufacturers Association were
Withdrawn for the day. so the "sea0s were
left alone and unnoticed. But the pickets
will go on duty this morning and remain at
their posts as formerly.
The police precautions at the old City
Hail Yesterday was the subject of much ad-
verse comment among the moders, who
considered the action Of Chief Crowley as
uncallrd for and unnecessary.
The ball and banquet given at San Jose
Saturday night in aid of the striking mold
ers was gratifying success. Between $500
and $500 was realized over expenses. The
affair was a significant demonstration by
the Garden City people of sympathy for the
struggling mechanics. News came by tele-
graph last night to the molderS that the pic
mic there in their benefit was a still more
fatterlng success and will net over Sl00O.

MISTAKES OF MOSES.
His Temper Was Faulty, but His Virtue
Were MANY.

His Temper Was Faulty, but His Virtues
Were Many.
At the Howard-street Methodist Epis-
copal Church last night Rev. DR.. Hareourt
delivered third lecture on ''The Mistakes
Of Moses" Opening with a narration Of
the anger exhibited by Moses when he
found the Israelites worshiping the golden
calf, and his reckless action in breaking the
tablets upon which the Ten Command
ments had been inscribed, the speaker ar
gued that Moses had been fasting for forty
days and nights, and naturally lost control
over his temper through a weakened con-
stitutiOn. He may have had faults, but his
virtues plotted them out. Temper is to q
man what ''metal'i is to a horse. A horse
without spirit is yalueless; in like manner
man without temper cannot be depended
upon for usefulness.
Discussing divine inspiration in the COM
pilation of the Bible, Mr.. Harcoart re-
marked upon the erroneous idea implanted
in many people that the original of the
great Book dropped from heaven. He dis
agreed with the statement of ST. Paul that
AL Scripture is given by inspiration of
Cod" and affirmed that the Bible con-
tanned much that was not revealed from
heaven, instancing the teachings concern
ing the destrOyal of witches.
He stated that it is conjectured that 100,-
coo persons have been put to cruel deaths
through condemnation by the church for
wifchcraft
