Mrs. Katherine Thompson was in the police
court this morning charged with selling liquor
without license in her grocery on Virginia
avenue between 9th and 9TH streets. Mary
Warrior testified that she had bought whisky
gin and beer in Mrs. Thompson's place on an
average five days in a week and Sundays

friend OF Mrs. Thompson she said she had had
a fuss with her and was willing to testify
against her for selling liquor. Moreover"
she SAID. IL amt got friend in the world
except perhaps silver dollar, and that's the
best friend any one can have" Another wit
ness testified to having bought candy and nuts
from Mrs. Thompson and then being treated by
her to whisky, but whether or not the price
OF the whisky was added to the price of the
candy he dad not know. All the testimony

Mr.. Carrlngton argued that the store was kept
by Mrs. Thompson's husband, who was legally
responsible, and that the information did not
really hold against her. A colored woman who
works IN the store said that she had never been

ned to there being liquor in the store which

An EIeven-Year-OId Bows Suicide.

Clement Flint, the eleyen-year-old son Of
William S. Flint, attorney-at-law, of Sacra-
mento. committed suicide yesterday by shoot
ing himself in the temple. He disappeared
from home after returning from school Tues
day afternoon. Search made for him
without success, and as he had not returned
yesterday morning his father left the house
to notify the police. As he passing along
the street he saw his little boy Oh the opposite
sidewalk. The boy started to run and the
father called him. telling him to come back,
that he intended to do him no harm. The boy
did not stop, however, but rushed into neigh
boring house. When he reached the hallway
the report of pistol was heard and when Mr..
Flint entered the house he found his only
child on the floor with a terrible wound in the
temple. He died few hours later The
parents are unable to account for his act, but
suppose that he feared to return home after
remaining away all night. They don't know
what caused his absence
