WHY did not the wife of the Ia

true, Charley Scott? Don't go off on

effort to ascertain the fact.-LdWrence
Record. 80 40 ...
Without being able to answer of our
own knowledge, we are vet of the
opinion that the explicit charge" 1.
not true, for the three following rea-
sons: First, the source of the charge
practically assures its falsity. Sec.
ond, in all the hours of talk we had
with Mrs. Haskell regarding her ap-
pointment we do uot recall that she
once claimed that Mr.. Funston had
promised her the Office or given her
any encouragement to believe that
ehe would receive it. Third, Mr..
Funston says that he never promised
it to her, nor ever gave her reason to
believe that he thought seriously OF
recommending her for appointment.

SAN Francisco, Dec. IS.-The Chroai-

company, which opened an extensive
office here November 10, has vanished,
and investigation shows that success
full swindle has been perpetrated. The
company was organized in Seattle about
three months ago with capital of $780,
600. The business was transacted here
by a man named Ayres, who issued a
circular offering to sell coal to be deliv-
cred after January 1, at $7.75 to 1925
per ton. AS coal was selling at the time
for from $l4 to $16 per ton, the adver-
tisement was very attractive. The cir
cular advertised to sell only a limited
amount of coal, and Only then on condi-
tion that the purchaser would buy one
share of the stock of the company, val.
ued at So, for each ton of coal ordered
the stock to be taken back by the COM
pany at par value in payment for coal
Canvassers were employed and quite q
business was done. A. F. Bruenbrook
was announced as president, A. G. Nc.
Auley as vice president, the Aver Chaplin
company as treasurer, E. Willard as Sec
retary and NJ. McAuley as assistant Sec
retary. McAuley and Bruenbrook came
here for few days, and on December
the whole outfit disappeared and moth
ing has since been heard from them.

Message.


New YORK, Dec. 20.-A special says ::
6 President Harrison expects to accom-

further papers relating to Behering sea
controversy, with special message
framed with special reference to the in
tended rejection of British government
proposal to arbitrate." To submission
of the question whether seizures of
British sailing vessels by U. S. were or
were not lawful seizures.
The president strenously objects, and
he viii never agree to it unless congress
shall assume the responsibility in some
mode yielding adherence to it. We will
ask congress for liberal appropriation to
meet the expense of fitting out char
tered vessels to serve as revenue
vessels to capture and disposed numer-
GUS marauding vessels expected to enter
Behring sea next year.

TRAGEDY AT FRESNO.
Murdered His Wife Because She wouIS
Not Stand His Cruel Treatment.

FRESNO, Dec. 1S.-Another atrocious
murder was committed here early this
afternoon, when DIR. F. o. Vincent shot
and killed his wife. Owing to drink,
Vincent has been going steadily down
for months. His wife, who was model
woman in every respect, has worked in
dustriously to support not only herself
but her husband, and his ill-treatment
toward her became at last so unbearable
that she sued for divorce. Vincent in
sisted that she withdraw the suit, but
to no purpose. He went to her house
to-day and demanded that the suit be
withdrawn, but she would not consent
thereto. He then began to use force and
attempted to get her to swallow some
thing from a vial which he produced.
Failing in this he drew revolver and
shot her four times, each shot taking
effect, and one ball is thought to have
passed directly through her heart She
died almost instantly. Vincent was at
once arrested and taken to the county
Jail, where, from his actions, it was
thought he had taken poison after kill
ing his wife. The effect of the dose, il
he had taken any, soon passed away and
he walked about. The murderer says he
has done the best thing possible under
the circumstances. The Jail is strongly
guarded tonight to prevent any posi-
bility of lynching.

Angry Discussion in a French Court on
the Subject.
PARIS, Dec. 19.-At the Eyraud trial
to-day DIR. Bouardel, who was deputed
to examine into the mental condition
of Mile. Bompard, expressed the convic-
toin that she was perfectly responsible
for her actions, although she would come
under the category of morally defic-
ient,'' being person that would commit
a crime with indifference. DIR. Sucreste,
the physician of the Bompard house
hold, said he had hypnotized Gabrielle,
and believed it possible that Eyraud
had. DIR. Brouardel denied the infu-
ence or hypnotism, and stormy scene
ensued. DIR. Voisin, police physician,
swore that he had hypnotized Gabrielle,
but declined to enter into details. Her
counsel asserted that Voisin had import
ant condolences from the persons, and
demanded that he state them. The
public prosecutor opposed it, and bla-
med Voisin for having resorted to hyp-
notism. The president of the court de-
cided that the matter ought to be dropped.
The audience protested loudly, and the
court was cleared.

THAT CHIN.

young,
And she was yet to win,
He used to praise with fiattering tongue
Her pretty dimpled chin.
Now, though she's still his hearts

AS in the bygone years,
When home he's going late at night
1t is her chin he fears.
