sHa DIED IN oBsCURITY.
FAD End Of Mrs. Edwin FORESTS
kventful Career.
F,.oy, the Mem York Advertf.

From. the Ketr York AdUertiser.
Catherine N. Sinclair, the widow of the
tragedian Edwin Forrest, died on Tuesday
last at No. SO West Eighty fourth street
She was "A years old, and her death was
caused by a combination Of petty diseases
attendant upon general physical decline.
Though once well known as the wife Of
the famous star and later on as an actress Of
no mean ability. her closing years were
passed in the darkest obscurity.
Broken in health and fortune, she lived
her last DAYS beneath the roof Of an old
friend, and went to her grave unknown
and forgotten.
To those theatrical veterans who per-
sonally recall Forrest and his beautiful wife,
the news of her death will be great sur
prise, for many Of them believed that she
had passed away long ago. She rests In the
cemetery at Silver Mount, 5. l..
Mrs. Forrest was very attentive TO her
religious duties, and the practitioners OF st.
Matthew's, a quaint little wooden church
upon Ninth avenue near to her late resi-
dence. knew her well.
All of the children who play about the
neighborhood knew her also, aud often
while on her way to and from church she
would stop and chat with them. She leaves
but one relative. Theodore VOORHEES, or the
New York Central railroad.
Catharine Sinclair was the daughter Of
John Sinclair, a well-known vocalist in his
day. Edwin Forrest married her in Eng
land during his successful visit to that
country in 1887, and she returned with him
TO America at the close OF that year. Mr..

Little Personal Opinions Gathered Up
Yesterday.
Councilman Rhodes-There is an
other thing to be considered about the
mayors lengthy messages. These docu-
ments must always be engrossed on the
minutes of the council by the recording
clerk, and one of the mayors average
messages costs the city from $40 to 500.
In many cases this expense ought to be
avoided irrespective of other interests.
City Attorney Northumberland of my
little boys is making great progress.
The other day he said with great dis
dain to one of his playmates: "What
do you know about arithmetic. Why,
am as far now as dismal fractions" III
bet they are dismal, too.
j. A. Muir, superintendent Southern
Pacific company-That's pretty chrys-
anthemum you have in your button

these flowers in the city. / have Chi
naman who thoroughly understands
their culture and he raises them to per-
fection. Why, have some that are as
big as dinner plate. But when it
comes to chickens, there is my forte. l
have chickens that lay the most eggs
when other hens are idle. always
have fresh eggs every day in the year.
1t takes great deal OF study and
work, however, to properly educate
hen.

me and when one of my colleagues walks

B. Rsgers-I see that the Republicans
are going to hold their national conven-
ton at Minneapolis. The right thing for
the Democrats to do would be to hold
theirs in St. Paul, and about the same
time. The northwest is what both par
9ies are bidding for and that would be
good way to- offset the Republicans
bid for popularity in that section.
w. III. Watkins-In my mind the hap
piest man must be he who grows up
with town, has nice business and is
making more than his actual needs,
sees his trade increasing all the time
and the town with it.

On Account of Which Mrs. Clissold
Takes Laudanum.
Yesterday morning, says the San Ber-
nardino Courier OF Tuesday, at about
half-past O'Clock Mrs. Joseph Clissold
was discovered lying on her bed, to all
appearances dead, with an empty vial
marked laudanum lying near.
The lady has been very despondeht
since the death of her husband, which
occurred about three years ago, her
boarders and friends often finding her
weeping and bewailing her lonely condi-
ton. Yesterday morning after going to
work Fred Cooley, who has room in
the residence of Mrs. Clissold, remem-
bered that letter which he wanted was
left in his room and went back to the
house to get it. On passing the door Of
Mrs. Clissold's room he was surprised to
see bright light streaming out through
the space under the door, and at once
opened it to discover the cause, fearing
fire. On opening the door he was hor.
rified to discover the lady laid out upon
the bed as though ready for burial.
Everything in the room was in the most

dressed in a manner that showed the in

taken the precaution to tie silk hand
kerchief around her head and under the
chin to keep the mouth closed The
alarm was at once given and Drs. Dickey
and Fleming summoned, who have been
working very hard ever since to save
the lady's life, but up to a late hour
last night with very little prospect of
success.
That the suicide was premeditated is
beyond question, for not only was the
lady herself and everything about her
for the sad evens, but she had,
no longer ago than Friday of last week,
made her will in anticipation OF her
death.
Mrs. Clissold came originally from the
state of Maine. She lived for number
of years in Maquoketa, Iowa, from
which place she, in company with her
husband, came to San Bernardino some

A Recomm edation Which Is Worth

A Recomm edation Which Is Worth
General Consideration.
The following letter from Rev. John
H. Collins contains recon- nendation
worth general consideration
EDrroRs HERALD: Will you kindly
allow me space in your paper to say a
word to the people of this city concern
ing duty suggested by the Thanksgiv-
ing proclamations OF President Har-
rison and Governor Markham? There
is much poverty in our city; men who
are idle, not of choice, but because of
sickness, and whose families are suffer
ing from hunger, lack of fuel and cloth
ing. There are widows left with large
families, who toll and struggle. as only
mothers can, to hold the children to-
gether and keep the grim wolf of power
ty from the door.
Shall not this Thanksgiving day be to
such lonely hearts, such desolate homes,
such dark and gloomy lives star from
which some little ray of light and
comfort may shine because Of our
Thanksgiving offerings for Gods poor? 7?
The Ladies' Benevolent society of this
city. to the personal knowledge of many
pastors and others knowing something
Of the poverty within our borders, ia q
grand and efficient organization, and at
recent meeting of the Ministerial
union it was unanimously voted to have
a special presentation in behalf of this
society, its work and its needs, made to
each OF the congregations which meet on
Thanksgiving day in places OF public
worship, and to ask for Liberal donations.

not easily imposed upon by professional
beggars, nor do they help unworthy per-

years, and stood the test WELL. But the
test OF two years in Ontario and two
years in Los Angeles are two very .dif-
ferent things. The San Luis Obispo
rock has, we are informed, been tested
satisfactorily in San Luis, but is a new
material in Los Angeles. 1t is claimed
to be of the same quality as that already
in use here; and the people OF Pearl
street are expected to prove that claim
true.
There is perhaps no man in executive
position who can do more harm than
one who has become crank on par
ticular subject. and if that particular
subject is the exercise of the veto power,
he will use it when it ought not to be
used as well as when its exercise is a

many wretched homes, and by the aid OF
the Ladies' Benevolent society l have
been enabled to assist many families
who have since proven their worthiness.
May the offering on Thanksgiving day
be one which will enable these ladies to
continue their good work. Any persons
not present at Thanksgiving service may
send their donationsto Mrs. @. Ducom-
nun, who will see that due credit is
given and the money judciously used.
