ALWAYS THINK TWICE.
The Fortunate Experience of Mrs. Bessie
kaVanaugh.

The Fortunate Experience of Mrs. Bessie
Kavanaugh.
Previous to the drawing OF the Louisiana
State Lottery Company, held December 10,
1891, vender of tickets called upon Mrs.
Bessie KaVanaugh, 25S Day street, San
Francisco. and offered the sale of tickets.
Mrs. kavanaugh, in looking over what he
had to sell, found that he only had coupons
of the Original Little Louisiana Company
tickets Of San Francisco. Che prices Of which
were 81, 30 cents and % cents each. She
stated that she did not want TO invest in
that company, but wanted a Louisiana 81
coupon.
The vender. after short argument,
proved to her satisfaction that a coupon OF
the Original Little Louisiana OF San Fran
cisco was as good as the Louisiana ) ate
Company. and that the former company
always guarantees the payment Of prizes IN
full.
A 81 coupon of the Original Little Louisi-
ana was purchased, and to her great delight,
on the day of the drawing the ticket she
secured, No. Y, 666. drew the capital prize,
emitting her to $4,000. She immediately
hunted up the vender, and he told her not
to get excited, that she would get her money
in San Francisco quicker than if she had
won in the Louisiana Company.
The prize was paid in full, and Mrs
Bessie Kavanaugh has, no doubt. spent a
Christmas that she will never forget through
the fairness of the Original Little Louisiana
Lottery Company Of San Francisco. Among
the other fortunate ones at the last drawing
were the tollOwing

An Explanation.

A stroll through that beautiful portion OF
Golden Gate Park known as the panhandle
makes vivid impression upon the stroller
that he is in a wood choppers camp.
At first the startled pedestrian thinks he
Is the victim of an Illusion. But there is no
Illusion about the matter whatever. There
are the wood-chOppers plying their axes
and making the beautiful grove resound
with the noise of their labor. And sure
enough above another clump Of trees rise
great volumes Of smoke from burning brush
and timber.
Another glance through an opening in
the almost tropical foliage aud one sees
trees leveled here ana there and stumps of
others scattered about as though fores t
was being cleared for the pillow. Approach

across groups of men cutting the fallen
trees into sections. choppng the logs into

great Donfires out of the leaves.

Ihe felltd trees were sound eucalyptus and
pine trees of about twenty years growth.
The reporter asked one Of the men thus
engaged by whose orders these fine trees
were being cut down. He said he had Or

about it. He suggested that the inquirer
had better see the superintendent if he
really wanted to know.
About o'clock Superintendent McLaren
was found in his buggy, driving to town.

trees were being cut down TO thin out the
forest so as to allow the other trees to grow.

SANTA CLARA'S PRUNES.


Petition for County Worlds Fair
Appropris alton.
One Of the best organized Of the county
Worlds Fair associations is that Of Santa
Clara County, incorporated under the laws
of the State, so that there should be no
question as to its right to diSburse the ex-
pected appropriation from the Supervisors.
The names Of the leading men of the county
are on its roll Of membership.
On Monday c. II. Allen President Of the
association, presented its petition - the
Board OF Supervisors, asking for Dreim-
mary appropriation OF $500 with which to
equip an office and lnaugurate the Work oil

is PECULIARLY the home of the pTune indus
try, it is desired to make prunes a special

The Supervisors Of Santa Clara County
are authorized by State enactment TO grant
a maximum appropriation of $4,000, but
there seems TO be some unwilingness to
give the association the preliminary sum
asked for, political considerations, it is
said. being the cause.
further hearing before the board will
be given the members Ct the association on
Friday, when action on the petition will be
taken.

Georgiana Bates Resting Easily and Her
AssajI mt Talking.
Little &c orgiana Eates, so dangerously
wounded by Vah BauSin on Sunday even
ing, was resting easily yesterday and thus
far no more dangerous symptoms have
manifested themselves. The surgeons in
charge Of the case assert that the crisis
may not arrive fer eight days, but If she
continues 10 rest as easily as she has since
she was wounded the chances are that she
will recover.
Bausin in the meantime is very laxative,
and to say the least OF his conversation,
talks quite nationally on all except one
topic, and that the reason which prompted
him to his tiendish acts. He readily recOg-
niZes the reporters, reads the papers and
says he knows everything that is said about
him. When asked why he did not select a
man for his victim instead Of a child, he
replied:
"A big man would have a gun or a knife
and could hurt me. while children cannot
defend themselves" Aud continuing he
soliloquized: "If they send NE to Jail for
twenty years l viii die in jail, and if they
hang me l will die, but when / DO there
will lie an end to the church. | viii get out
anyway and will yet kill a little child"

A DASTARDLY ACT.
William Harrington Offered Acid
for Whisky.

William Harring ton Of Gas Mission street
will probably be very certain of the per-
sons who 10 the future invite him 70 drink.
This caution which he viii eviuce is the re-
suit of an experience he underwent yester-
day morning.
Shortly after midnight, while he was
standing at the corner of Third and Mission
street, he was approached, so lie says, by
two young men, one Of whom said Say,
old man, you look as If you were cold, don't
you want something to warm you up?"
Harrington was not dis Inclined and took
the prOflered flask and turnel II up to his
mouth TO gulp down a gO0dly Quantity. No
sooner had the liquid touched his mouth
than it burned him, and recognizing that it
was not the pleasant extract OF cora or rye
spit il out of his mouth, but ere lie could
utter word Of TemOnsTance or do any
thing the two men had fed.
Harrington quickly went to his home and
Tinsed his mouth ont thoroughly. and al
though suffering great pain remained at
home making applications Of cold water to
the injured parts until the next morning,
when he came to the Receiving Hospital to
have his throat treated. The Police Surgeon
said the burn was similar to that produced
by sulphuric acid.
The injured man said he did not know
who the men were, never having seen them
before, and could pot give even vague in
timatiOn OF a possible motive for the
dastaTdly act.

Under AdvIsement.

The matter of the application OF John
Willis for a writ of mandate to compel
Auditor Smiley TO allow his salary demands
as an Assistant Engineer of the San Fran
cisco Fire Department came up for hearing
before Judge Wallace yesterday. The at
torneys argued and the Judge expressed
himself of the mind that the Super
visOrs had no more authority to allow an
Illegal claim than the Auditor. He thought
the Supervisors had appellate power over
tile Auditor in some cases. In the absence
of reference to a section of an act of the
Legislature upon which the claim arises il
is jurisdictional, and therefore the Auditor
has no right to act upon It and consequently
the Supervisors had no right TO act upon it.
The matter was taken under advisement on
briefs to be filed

LOVES MANY TRIALS.
Held in $1,000 Bail TO Answer
the Charge Of Bigamy.

Judge Rix held 'love feast" in his court
yesterday morning. The occasion was the
hearing of the case against Homer S, alias
Harry, Love, charged with bigamy. The
prosecutriX, quite a prepOssessing little
woman, was Mrs. Alice Bridges, formerly
Mrs Love nee Alice HaTdingburg) Of Oak
land, whom Love married on January II,
1891, representing that he was single man.
When placed on the stand, she produced
her certificate Of marriage and said she had,
after being married to him, discovered he
had another wife, from whom he was not
divorced. She tax him with it. lie ac-
knOWIedged the fac, hut promised TO marry
her again VIII n he secured a divorce
from Vile /, bu, luote d Of doing so he fed
to Los Ange eS. where he married Wife 3
She then married Wi Ii lm Bridges on July
q 1891, without Obt. nng divorce from
Love as her attorney had told her such
step was unnecessary under the cIIcum-
stances.
Wife l, whom Love married under tie
name of Turner, al Golden City, Mo-, on
March s, 1888. was divurc from the biga-
mist on May 81. 1891 Her maiden name
was Maggie Henderson, and since Love has
been in all his various and manifold troubles
through bigamy, forgery, larceny, conf
dence games, and so on, her heart again
warmed O. him, and she sat in the court
room near the prisoner with a Oushel of ten
derness and sympathy beaming from her
dark brown eyes.
Wife was also on hand. and it was
stated that several other of the SOtt-hearted
sex who had at various times succumbed TO
his wileS were present; but the most dra-
matte incident OF the hearing occurred when
the Assistant Prosecuting Attorney seized
Love by the arm and demanded that he re-
turn marriage certificate which in an I'M
guarded moment had been left within his
reach and which he was attempting TO con-
ceal under a large blOtter upon the table.
When all the evidence had been given the
court soon announced its decision, holding
Love for trial before the Superior Court,
with bail fixed at $4,000 peculiar feature
OF the case is the appearance Of Love, for
while he appears to have been able to win
the affections of woman after woman, his aD-
pearance is anything but attractive, ana, on
tie contrary, Is rather repulsiVe than other
