BUTLER'N STORY.
He is Charged With Failing to Sup
port His Family.
But Has Been a Hospital Patient fol
Months, and Says He Cannot
Support Himself.

telegram was received at the Police
Station on Tuesday, from Chief of Police
Tompkins Of Oakland, asking the author
tiles here to arrest one w. n. Butler, who
was wanted in Oakland on charge OF
misdemeanor.
Officer Gibson was detailed to hunt up
Butler, and he located him yesterday and
brought him to the station. An officer
came up from Oakland at noon and took
Butler to the Bay on the 3:05 train.
The prisoner has been accused of mis-
demeanor, in falling to provide for the
support of wife and three children in
Oakland, but if the story he tells is true.
he is to be pitied rather than blamed. He
says he left his family year ago last
June and came to Sacramento to seek
employment. He soon found work. and
up to last December he made regular re-
mlttanceS to his wife, out Of his earnings,
lie lost the sight of one of his ewes
shortly afterward, however, and was
compelled to go to the County Hospital
for treatment. He has been there ever
since, and is yet undergoing treatment
Tor the other eye, which is growing
steadily weaker.
lie says he will have no trouble in
clearing himself of the charge and prov
ing that he is not even able to support
himself, let alone a family. He saws he
did the best he could when he was well.
and he claims to know now that his wife
has been untaithful. Butler is ONLY
about % years Of age, and is colored.

The Cloak Models Reward.

Chock full OF oddities are the courtships
OF big city, says a New York letter 1t
is doubtless true that in the cloak houses
of New York there are the most statu-
esquely beautiful women that the CITY con-
tains. They are well paid girls who do
little besides put on and take of cloaks,
In order to display the garments TO the
purchaser. Cloaks' models are usually
rather gay after they have been in the
business for while. They are apt to ac-
cept invitations from their employers, or
other men with whom they are associ-
ated, TO go to the theater or beach ex-
cursion. One girl was extraordinary in
this regard. She was serious and we'll
balanced, and when her day was done
she wished to do nothing bat 90 home to
her mother and sisters. Her EMPLOYER
was surprised at what he considered her
eccentr1clty. She not only calmly ig-
nored him, but she would not even con-
verse with the handsome salesman who
was wonderful favorite with all the
other girls. When they saw how indif-
ferent tlfe new model was to all the
gallantries offered her they said that she
would not hold her place long. They
were correct. She held it only three
months. On Monday morning she did not
appear, and when questions were asked
it was learned that she would no longer
try on Cloaks in the establishment The
handsome salesman gloated over her de-
parture. He smilingly asked his en-
ployer before all the other models, why
he had discharged the cold and naughty
one.
Too fine for the cloak business, eh p"
asked the salesman.
Yes" replied his employer, 81
thought she was. That is why asked
her to marry me. The wedding is next
month"
pert creature, who had been accept
ing every invitation she could get from
her employer, in the hope it might lead
to something, developed a jumping head
ache on the spot, and was compelled to go
home for the day, while the other girls got
together in a corner and assured each
other that their former companion was a
sly one and had been leading the gov
ernor on. So.she had-by her invariable
pride and goodness; which goes to prove
that noble heart allied to a noble figure
Will land girl much higher in the world
than the mere figure with the excellent
heart left out.

BASEBALL MATTERS.
A Series of Five Games Between Sac
ramento and San Jose.
Ward and Hustin Back in the Club
No Likelihood of the Foreign Tai
ent Winning the Pennant.

Commencing to-day there will be a
series of FIVE ball games in this city be-
tween the Sacramento and San Jose
teams. The games will all commence at
2:30 o'clock, a half-hour earlier than
usual.
Ward and Hustin are now full-fedged
players of the team that has been repre-
senting Sacramento during the season.
They are the two who disappeared sud
denly several months ago, leaving Man
ager Ginsberg in the lurch. He had them
arrested in Oregon, however, and made
fuence has placed Ward in the team
again, and when he once got foothold he
would not play unless Hustin did, so the
two are now keeping in practice in Nc
Closkey's club.
Goodenough, who had his nose broken
last Sunday, is still confined to his home.
He will be out in a few days, however.
The Sacramento team, as now patched
up, has no show to win the pennant, but
the series of games will probably be
played through to the end.
Rumor has it that an effort is being
made to "freeze out'' McHale, the only
Sacramento man in the team. A great
many of the cranks suspected something
OF the kind last week, when they noticed
that Bob" was playing on the bench in
San Francisco to make room for HuStin.
Spies has been heard to remark that he
didn't care who won the pennant now.
He does not take a fancy to the present
makeup of the club.

Come to STAY,

The terribly aggravated form of influ-
enza, which physicians on the continent
OF Europe designate as ia grippe"
seems to have effected permanent lodg-
ment this side the Atlantic. 1t makes its
temperance as soon as the cool weather
sets in, and not infrequently during the
summer months. In the spring it is ram
pant. Nothing checks its first attack, or
SO effectually counteracts its subsequent
ravages, as Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
The fortifying, invigorating influence of
that benefcent tonic protects the system
against the dangers which beset feeble
physique and weakly constitution conse-
quent upon abrupt transitions of temper
ature. 1t diffuses genial warmth
through the diaphragm, which is the best
corrective or preventive of a chill, and is
means of neutrahzing the effect of ex-
posure in damp or rigorous weather. In
dyspepsia, liver complaint, eostiveness.
rheumatism, malarial and kidney
troubles it is never resorted to without
good results.

John Ryan VIII Have to Go to the
Penitentiary.
The trial of one John Ryan, accused of
embezzlement, was concluded before Su-
perior Judge Catlin and jury yesterday.
In February last Ryan hired two horses
and two sets of harness from man
named TauseI, agreeing to pay at the rate
of 81 a day for the use of the team.
Tauser reserved the right to demand the
return Of his property at any time he saw
fit. The matter ran along all right for a
time, and then Ryan disappeared. Tauser
hunted for him, and found him incar-
ceTated ia the County Jail. Ryan assured
Tauser that the horses were all right, but
upon investigation the owner found that
the team had been disposed of. The
charge Of embezzlement was then brought
against the prisoner.
Ryan was defended by Messrs. Ross
and Devlin, but the case was a hopeless
one, and the prisoner was promptly con-
yicted by the jury. he viii be sentenced

WAOHBURN Won.
Suit Over Building Materials for a
Residence.
Covon, Not Satisfied, Appealed the
Case = The Supreme Court De-
cides Against Him.

The case of Covell VS.. Wasburn, ap-
pealed from Sacramento County, has been
decided by the Supreme Court, and the
decision was filed yesterday in Deputy
Clerk Govan's office in this city.
The action was one to recover the reason
able value of labor done and materials fur
nished by Covell, at Washburn' s request,
IN the building of the latter's house, al
legged to be $500, of which $3.50 is ad-
mitted to have been paid Judgment
was demanded for the balance, 81 $40.
Covell recovered judgment for $423 10,
with costs, but appealed, claiming that he
was entitled to judgment for an addi-
tional sum of SlS7 10.
There was, it appears, a written con-
tract between the parties for the building
Of house by Covell, the price to be
So, $50. The contract did not comply with
the Code of Civil Procedure and was
never filed in the office of the County
Recorder.
Covell began the erection of the build
ing and the furnishing of the materials,
according to the terms of the void con-
tract, with the knowledge and con-
sent and at the request of Washburn,
lie continued the work for four and a
half months, and then ceased before the
building was completed. The labor per-
formed and materials furnished were
alleged to have amounted to s., 1913 80, of
which $500 was paid.
Two persons, with whom Covell had
contracted liabilities for lumber, ETC.,
filed liens on the building amounting
TO l,OIO. and commenced actions to fore
close their liens. a decree OF foreclosure
was rendered for the full sum, and also
SlI5 for attorneys fees and SD Is COSTS
To discharge his house from the liens
Washburn paid all this money. and the
court allowed the payment as offsets
against CovelPs demand in this action.
The Supreme Court says, among other
things: 1T is contended that the defend
ant was not entitled to set off the attor-
ney's fees and costs allowed in the fore
closure suiU-not because they were i'm
properly allowed in these suits. but be-
cause he should have paid the debts to Sc
cure which the liens had been filed, with
out suit, and thus have saved the expense
ana costs of those suits.
1T should not be overlooked that Wash
burn was not personally liable for the
debts OF Covell to the lien-holders for the
materials furnished, and that he cannot
be presumed to have known whether or
not the plaintiff had any valid defense to
the suit"
The judgment and order were affirmed.

1t will be remembered that an attempt
was made to hold the preliminary hear

Stevens of that place granted the request
OF the defendants for separate exanlina-
tlons, and would not change his ruling
despite the pleadings of District Attorney
Robinson and special counsel Charles I.
Jones'. The District Attorney then dis
missed the case, and the Roberts brothers
were discharged from custody. They
were promptly rearrested, however, and

The continued cases of H. Kohne, VIM.
Cook, Emil Heinrich, w. M. Ellsworth
and B. Lucy, charged with keeping their
saloons open after midnight, were on the
Police Court calendar yesterday. The
names Of Cook, Heinrich and Kohne were
down twice, they having been arrested a
second time for continuing to keep open
after once having been arrested.
The attorney for Cook asked that tho
case be set for Tuesday next, and it was
SO ordered.
The other cases were continued until
next Monday and venire for fifty jurors
was issued.
Some of the saloon proprietors who
have been arrested for violating the mid
night-closing ordinance seem to imagine
that, until the charge first brought
against them is decided, they can keep
right on violating the law. In this they
are mistaken, and Captain Lee declares
that they shall be arrested for each sep
arate offense, and be required, of course,
to give new bond in each case.
