EXPELLED FROM PRUSSIA.
An Editor Makes False Statements Coz
corning the Sultan's Health

An Editor Makes False Statements Con-
corning the sultan's Health
BERLIN May 10. 49, Herr Won Yves
selitzki Bojodaravitch, editor of The
Allgemeine ReichscorreBpondenz, has
been expelled from Prussia, for making
false statements concerning the sui
tan's health. Several days ago he pub
lished an article to the effect that the
sultan had been ailing for some time
that he had grown worse rapidly within
the last few weeks, and that the grand
vizier, who had at first kept the sui
tan's condition secret, had at length
felt it to be his duty to communicate ii
to all persons near the throne to pre-
pare them for emergencies.
This news was telegraphed to every
capital in Europe and caused scores Of
leaders to be written upon the approach
ing crisis in Turkey and its bearing
upon the eastern question. Within
two days official denials were sent out
from Constantinople by the grand vizier
and the sultan requested Emperor Will
lam to punish Herr Won Wesselitzki
Bojodaravitch for insulting his majesty
and trying to endanger the domestic
peace of the sublime porte. The EN-
peror had the order of expulsion issued
at once.
The Prussian government undoubted-
ly was glad to have an excuse for the
expulsion, as HeTr Won Wesselitzki Bo-
jodaravitch has long been regarded rs a
a dangerous character. He came here
about six yeas ago, after having been
expelled from Herzegovina for intrigu-
ing under several aliases against the
Austrian government, BY his callous
presumption, supported by the attrac-
lions of his talented wife, he eventually
gained access to the highest circles, and
subsequently embarrassed several digna-
taries by letting out prematurely many
government secrets. He is said to be a
cousin of the Prince of Montenegro.

THE MOTHER WAS DEAD.


But She Held Her Baby In Her
Arms.
When David w. Hood, man who
earns his livelihood by working for fruit
growers and farmers in this valley, says
the Pomona Progress, went to his mod
est little house up near Dalton cation
last Saturday evening, aftera hard days
work, he found his wife sitting in = big,
easy rocking chair, holding her crying
oaby in her arms.
He spoke to bis wife on entering, and
advanced to give kiss in salutation of
his return home, when he noticed that
her eyes were shut and that her face was
of a ghastly color. The woman was dead,
and from the rigidity Of her form it was
found that she had been dead nearly an
hour. The child was probably asleep
when death came to the mother, but
awoke shortly before the father came
home.
Mrs. Hood had suffered with heart
disease for two years, but for several
months had had no pain and thought
she was recovering from her trouble.
Her age was 80 years. The husband is
very disconsolate at this sudden loss,
and has come to his parents in Los An

REV. GEORGE WILLETr.

The Red1ands Minister Exonerated From
Rumored Charge.
The statement in reference to q Red
lands minister named George Willett
has called forth the publication of a
statement of committee appointed by
the church board of the Congregational
church of that place, which denies abso-
lutely that charges of intoxication were
preferred against Mr.. Willett; denies
that any action has been taken by the
church in regard to the pastor; states
that on the report being circulated Mr..
Willett asked for an investigation, and
that On examining the reports they were
found absolutely untrue, and ascribes
the circulation of the reports to liquor
man.
The report, which is signed by ]. P.
Fisk, jr., j. S. Edwards, g. A. Kings
bury and A. S. Mcpherson, concludes as
follows: "The only ground upon which
any such false charges can rest is found
in the fact that after nine years of ex-
treme suffering and sturdy resistance to
the prescriptions of his physiciane, Mr..
Willett finally yielded to the advice of
several reputable doctors to take pre-
scribed quantity of stimulants as his
only hope"
The following statement is added to
the other:
REDLANDs, CAL, June II, 1892.
To Whom it May Concern:
This is to say, that on the 9Th day of
June (present month), at 8 o'clock p.
M, was in the Stewart drug store, saw
the Rev. George Willett and little son
sitting before the soda fountain and
heard him reply to question relating
to politics; learned that he was low
tariff man from the reply, which wac
made in an animated way. He was not
drunk at the time. / will make affida-
Wit to this, if required, at any time.
