THE EFFECTUAL METHOD OF VIM.
MACK'S SUICIDE.
He Made Sure That There Should Be NJ
Failure-He Fired His House and
Then Shot Himself. W

There was q afrightful suicide near Bur
bank yesterday afternoon = &lsuicid<

determination which was bordering on
ferocity.
William Mack was long resident oi
the Little Tejunga cafion, about ten
miles north of Burbank. He has been
engaged in various pursuits there, and
has been occupied largely in bee ranch
ing.
Mack has been despondent for some
time, and it is thought has contem-
plated ending his life for some time
past. At any rate, yesterday he de-
cided to solve the great mystery, and he
did 90 in most effectual way. He first
set fire to his house.. and then shot him
self while in the blazing building and
cremated himself.
The news was telephoned last evening
to the coroner's Office, and that official
will this morning 60 to the place and

HE WANTS $25,oo

A Suit ON Cashiers Certificates Against
San Diego Bank.
The disastrous California National
bank failure of San Diego bobbed up in
a new shape in the U United States circuit
court yesterday.
A suit was filed in the name of Samuel
A. Wood against the bank to recover
$25, 900 due him. Wood recites that he
is citizen of Colorado, and that on May
20, 1891, he received from ]. w. Collins,
president of the bank, three certificates
Of deposit on the bank, drawn up by
Cashier George O'Brien and made pay
able to J. w. Collins. Two of these GER
tificates were for $500 each and one for
$4,000. When the failure of the bank
was announced Wood was in Paris,
France, and Immediately put his claim
on file with the United States consul in
that city.
This suit is the first growing out Of
the liberal issuance of certificates of
deposit by the defunct bank at the in.
stance of ex-President Collins.

CANNOT COME.
THE SUBJECT OF REV. MILLS'S SER.
MON LAST NIGHT.
There Will Be Farewell Services on Sun.
day-A Light Attendance Last
Evening.

The heat that some people might call
uncomfortable did not deter about $500
people coming to the great religious
meeting at the pavilion last night. The
song service, as usual, preceded the read
ing of the scriptures and the sermon.
After the singing, Rev. Mr.. Smither
emphasized the necessity of generous
free-will offering in behalf of Mr.. Mills.
Rev. w. H. Pendleton OF the East Los
Angeles Baptist church opened the SER
vices with an earnest and impressive
prayer. The statement was then made
by Mr.. Mills that on Sunday three SER
vices would be held, as farewell exercises.
At the afternoon session non-church
members, recent converts and church
members accompanied by their friends
would be admitted by ticket. Today at
3 O'Clock there will be half-hour serv-
ice, in which questions can he asked in
regard to the best means of perpetuating
the glorious work already commenced.
Mr.. Mills commenced the regular exer-
cises by reading an. extract from the
fourteenth chapter OF Luke. This chap
ter, it will be remembered, is where
Christ spoke of the excuses men make
on all occasions, small and great.
The text was taken from the 18th chap
ter of Luke, Goth verse. Cannot Come.
The basis of the talk or sermon might
be denominated The Last Call. This
refers to those who excuse themselves
for neglect of duty, or coming to Christ.
Three silly excuses were made by those
summoned to the banquet referred to in
the text, for not coming to the feast.
Excuses are made by men for not Join
ing the church because there are occa-
sional hypocrites, but there is not one
hypocrite in the various churches to
one hundred persons outside of the
church. You will find peculiar people
everywhere. The Jews were a peculiar
people, but no more peculiar IN a reli-
gious sense than men at the
present time. Peculiar people
come into the church in a
peculiar way. Religion was made
for peculiar people. Peculiar people
and beasts and creeping things got into
the ark; they did not get in the
same way, but they got in. Let all
come to Christ and the everlasting
kingdom, whether peculiar or not--only
come in the way that God made it pos
sible for you to come. Remember there
is last call. Consider that tonight. is
your last call.
The sermon was one of more plain,
earnest simplicity, without the orna-
mentation of rhetoric, than any he has
previously delivered. The simplicity,
however, made good impression, and
at the close of the sermon about forty or
fifty rose in response for prayers. While
the meeting was not characterized by
the enthusiasm or numbers of that OF
Wednesday, yet there was apparent a
deep religious feeling. Mr.. Mills ap-
peared somewhat exhausted after the
unusual strain of Wednesday exercises,
which we're very arduous.

LIKE A SPANISH DON.
DR.. Bragg the Defendant In Forge

DR.. Bragg the Defendant In Forgery
There is rich fund of incidents OF a
somewhat sensational character in the
background of the case of forgery OF q
deed now on trial before Judge Smith OF
the superior court.
Quite q swarm of witnesses were ex-
amined for the prosecution yesterday,
including E. M. Shipman, George p.
Phibbs, E. w. Sargent, E. E. Powers,
Esperanza de Abila, Charles E. Alter
and others. Messrs. McComas and
Appel conduct the peoples side, and
Attorneys Williams, Ling, Stephens and
Adams appear for the defense. The
defendant, DR.. Bragg, sits next to Attor-
ney Williams and looks like Spanish
don with his mustache and Mephis-
tophelean goatee, and near by him sits
Esperanza de Abila, an erstwhile Span
ish beauty, at whose shrine the gallant
doctor still worships. The deed-forgery
transaction, for which DR.. Bragg is now
in the tolls had its origin in the troubles
of Manuel Gotta, barber who in 1886,
while in financial difficulties, put his
property in the name of his friend
Henry Ve]ar. lie neld possession Tor
some time, and in reconveying it back
forgot to include the deed for two lots
on the Cadirque tract, valued at $4,000.
Vejar some time later conveyed this
land to third party, whence it came
into the possession of Mrs. Encarnacion
Sanchez, and Gotta, the original owner,
thinking Vejar had merely made an
oversight, conveyed the property, al
though the title was not vested in him.
to relative of Sefiorita de Abila, who
in turn conveyed it to DR.. Bragg.
Some time ago Sanchez alsd Bragg
had dispute about this title, and
Bragg finding that the name of Vejar
was necessary in the deed, it is claimed,
attempted to insert it, and finally made
oath before Recorder Kelly that it had
been omitted from the record by mis-
take, and it was on that affidavit that
he got into the present trouble.

GAGE OBJECTED.
BOUTS BETWEEN ATTORNEYS IN THE
NORTON CASE.
The Attorney for the Defense Makes
tho District Attorney Very
Unhappy.

Life was not one long, pleasant dream
OF delight to District Attorney McLach-
Ian yesterday afternoon. In the first
place the weather was decidedly fervid
in department six of the superior court,
and secondly Henry Gage, the well
known attorney, who is defending G. E.
Norton on q charge of false pretense, in
terposed multiplicity of objections to
the structural foundation of the district
attorneys interrogations in examining
H. s. Baldwin.
The latter is the prosecuting witness
in that famous Orange county land
trade, and not solitary question was
asked the witness and not an answer
given but was Immediately followed by
the bland and dulcet tones of Attorney
Gage, who injected the record with OBJ
| jections of every description and variety
known to the most astule legal minds.
| When this manner of procedure was in.
augurated at 1. O'Clock District Attorney
McLachlan smiled pleasantly, but as
hour after hour wore away and the
stream of objections still poured forth
a glare of agony shone in his eye, and
every time he looked at the wall a
chunk of plaster dropped out with d.
8. t.
Baldwin managed to say that he
owned certain property on Bunker Hill
avenue for four years, but was not posted
on values of real estate. Several exhib-
it's were then offered and admitted. He
had seen the land involved in the trade
at Anaheim. It was pointed out to him
by Mr.. Cadman.
District Attorney McLachlan-What
was Cadman's condition?
Mr.. Gage-I would like to know what
you mean by his condition! Do you
mean his spiritual, physical or religious
condition?
Mr.. Well, I'll change the
question.
Mr.. Gage-I am grateful to you fol
once keeping with the law.
Judge McKinley--Perhaps his reli-
gious condition is intended; that's an
important question just now.
Mr.. McLachlan--I want to know Cad
mans physical condition.
Mr.. Gage-And object for the reason
that the witness is not doctor.
So the stream of argument ran along
and Baldwin incidentally testified ht
had examined the land involved in the
trial two days ago; that out of 100 acres
only fifty acres was tillable land, while
the rest was wash land and useless
The tillable land he considered worth
| $50 to $40 an acre. The indications arc
that the trial will consume week O.
longer.

BIG SALT MINES SOLD.
The Atchison Railroad to Build Slip

The Atchison Railroad to Build Slips
and Ship Extensively.
James Viosca OF La Paz, Lower Cali
fornia, for twenty years owner of the
great Carmen island salt mines in the
gulf, half way up to Guaymas, is in the
city, says the San Francisco Examiner.
Mr.. Viosco says he has sold these
mines to party of capitalists, headed
by President Marvel of the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe railroad. They
were netting him about $4,000 year,
he says. even with his Yaqui Indian
laborers and primitive apparatus. The
purchasers have already taken steps to
put in costly machinery and ship salt
everywhere.
81 myself shipped salt to all the coun-
tries SOUTH" he said. II sent it all the
way down to the isthmus and even into
Peru. Besides / supplied nearly all of
Mexico. The salt lies immeasurably
deep in an old lake bed. The central
disc OF the old lake is mile and half
IN diameter. As fast as the salt is quar-
ried out OF q given space the water comes
10 again and is fast evaporated, leaving
the space filled again with salt.
'I regard it as one of the phenomenal
mines OF the world and the greatest OF
modern times. The capitalists associ-
ated with Mr.. Marvel, / am told, will
build slips for many ships and will en-
gage extensively in mining and trans
porting the product.

The island itself is seventeen miles long
and between six and seven miles wide. .

Rubinstein.

Rubinstein has been so long before the public that many regard him as an old man and expect to find visible and out ward marks of age and it's imfirmities. The contrary is true. His figure is still stalwart. At first sight, he might be taken for an athlete or a soldier. He walks with the firm tread of a man who is certain of his ground. His head and face are strongly marked and more picturesque, perhaps, than the head and face of any celebrity of the day, not excepting Tolstoi, who, it has been well said, resembles humanized lion, what ever that may be. Rubinstein's face is leonine. His forehead is broad and massive. His complexion is swarthy. His eyes are small and seem to pierce the very soul of the beholder. They are overshadowed bp thick brows. His shock of black hair has scarcely been touched with grey. His face is scanned with thought. In a word, he looks like a robust man in the prime of life, a man who has been a profound student and GilluheI, as we'll do d great IofeI ol ouI- door exercise.
 And yet Rubinstein has been before the public as piano player for B years, and that is very long time for any one person to stand in the garish light of public life. He began his career when only nine years of age and he confident ly tells his friends that he is good for a score more years of service yet. It has the successes that have made Rubinstein's 8 life memorable. His early career was one of trouble, not unmixed with pover- ty. He has made many fortunes and given great deal of money to the poor of his own country. He went to Vienna, Moscow and St. Petersburg only recently to play for charity for the Russian peasants, who are starving and the price of seats rose to fabulous sums. Not one penny of this money did he keeb for him. self. It all went to those who were dying for bread. His genius has been recognized in every land. He has no rival as a pianist. He is a virtuoso, whose reign is absolute; composer, who has done exellent work; in fact, man who has left no field in music unexplored. He has been decorated many times by the crowned heads and notabilities of the world. He has large box filled with decorations.-[St. Petersburg let ter in New Haven Register.
