MENDOZA CONVICTED.
Recommended to Mercy for Man-
slaughter.

When the trial of Antoine Mendoza was
resumed yesterday morning in Judge Shat
ter's court, Assistant District Attorney
Southland began his closing argument for
the people. lie spoke over an hour, devot-
ing most of his argument to the insanity
plea. He com5ated the idea that Mendoza
was insane at any time. Judge Shafter fol-
lowed with his charge, consuming thirty
minutes.
The case was given to the jury at II 40
o'clock, and that body remained out until
$50 o'clock without reaching a verdict. AT
that time 1t was sent to lunch, at which an
hour was spent. Upon its return the jury
was in better humor, and after celebrating
until o'clock it decided that Mendoza was
guilty of granddaughter under extenuating
circumstances and recommended him to the
mercy of the court" Mendoza was ordered
to apI ear for sentence on Monday.
While the jury was being polled Mendoza
showed the keenest anxiety. His mother
and sisters also made apparent the suspense
under which they were laboring. The an
nouncement of the verdict seemed to satisfy
the anxious group, as the extreme penalty
is ten years. which, under the Goodwin act,
is reduced to six years and four months for
goud behavior

ever since Hamlet trod the stage. Mr. Barrett
thinks lie has solved this question, and in doing
so takes ground against Coeridge, HaZlitt,
Schlegel and others who have written on The
subject. Coeridse considered Hamlet a man
whose ideal and internal images are so vivid
that all real objects are faint and dead to him.
This, in his opinion and critical Judgment, we
see in his solOques on the nature of man and
his disregard of life; hence, also, his yacillation
and the purely convulsye energies he displayed.
He acts only by fits and snalehes, and maulfests

Idea OF Hamlet is youth OF 20, manly, noble
Intelligent and strong, with a temperament
keeniy sensitive to the woe that has come upon
him, who waits his opportunity consummates Its
purpose and dies cOntented. This much may be
said OF Mr.. BarTetts conception of the characters:
he reduces lis compexty. and thereby gives
himself less trouble, from his point OF view, In

A PRINTERS DEATH.
Drowning of II. 7. Eagan in the Pal


Reservoir.
Park Officer Thompson found, while
| making his rounds through the park yester-
day afternoon. bundle of mems clothing
on Strawberry Hill, near the reservoir
Their appearance indicated that the cloth
ing had just been removed, and the officer
at once concluded that some one had been
bathing in tue reservoir and possibly
drowned.
Grapplers were procured and the reser-
yolr dragged, but nobody recovered. 1t was
at last decided to let the water out and
drain the tank. When this was done the
body OF young man was found lying on
the bottom. From an examination of the
clothing 1t was ascertalned that the de-
ceased was Henry Thomas Eagan, printer,
| aged Is, residing at 10 Barnard street, and
employed on the journal of Commerce.
Eagan was unmarried, of very secretiye
habits and not especially strongminded. 1t
is supposed that he went out TO the reser-
voir to take 4 bath and was accidentally
drowned. The Coroner was notified and
Deputy Magner and Messenger Smith drove
out with the M0rgue wagon to secure the
body.
Soon after entering the park they were
arrested by Park Officer Dearborn for vio-
lating the ordinance prohibiting the driving
OF certain character of vehicles in the
park. Fortunately the Commissioners were
10 session at the park, and, when the
urgency Of the case was laid before them,
the release of the MOrgue officials was at
once ordered and they proceeded to the res
eryolr and obtained the body of Eagan.

BLACKMAlL CHARGED.
The Southern Pacific's Answer to a Con
plant for Damages.

The Southern Pacific's Answer to a Com
plant for Damages.
A short time ago Jacob Cahen entered an
action to recover $4,000 damages from the
Southern Pacific for injuries to his bust
ness.
His cause Of complaint was that he had
purchased a stop-over ticket for Ogden in
February last, and that he travelled Oh it to
Reno, but that when he resumed his jour
ney from that place the conductor refused
to accept it. He was on a business trip,
and, by being obliged to pay his fare be-
tween Reno and Ogden, he was left with
insufficient money to meet expenses.
An answer was filed yesterday, in which
the company alleges that the ticket was
spurious and escaped detection by the CON
ductor to whom it was first shown. 1t is
further charged that the plaintiffs suit for
damages has been brought for the purpose
of blackmail and the company asks for
$50, 500 damages for injury to the business
of the road by reason of the suit
