of one hundred pfennigs. Life here is

somewhat the small wages-that

premely strange 1T would be for us to
present the car conductor now and then

everywhere in the Fatherland. Riding

In many respects we surpass the Ger

doubt very much whether the public in
America is SO uniformly well served as
here in Berlin.

TIRED OF LIFE.
SUICIDE AT LA CANADA OF ERNEST
KROEGER.
The Last of a Bright Artist From Chi
cago-He Sat in Front of Mirror
by Which He Aimed
the Fatal Shot.

Coroner Weldon yesterday held an in
quest over the remains OF Ernest Kroe-
ger, who committed suicide at La Cres-
centa, about 6 O'Clock Friday evening.
Deceased was landscape artist, and
had for some time been living in little
frame building in the rear of Scherb's
hotel. About O'Clock pistol shot was
heard; some of the attendants at the
hotel went into the cabin and they
found that Kroeger had shot himself in
the right temple, killing himself almost
instantly. The body of the suicide was
sitting upright in chair, near table
on which was looking glass, the de.
ceased having evidently placed the glass
in that position while meditating and
preparing for death. The pistol had
dropped upon the floor by his side.
The deceased was aged about 35 years,
and had been living at La Crescenta for
about two years. He was consumptive,
and came to this country from Chicago
for his health. He had been very de-
spondent recently, and frequently spoke
of committing suicide. He had no
means, and on his person were ad-
dressed envelopes to his brothers in
Chicago, and in one of these was note
stating that Youngclaus of Pasadena
owed him $50. He was we'll thought of
by the people of La Crescenta, and had
many friends in this city. The jury re-
turned verdict In accordance with the
facts. The funeral will take place at IL
o'clock this morning, from the under.
taking rooms of Orr & Sutch.

OF the Temperance temple yesterday,
at which were present several influen-
tial friends of the temple and Mr.. Fav.
who has conducted the canvass for sub,
scriptions, the condition of the work
was shown to be extremely gratifying.
IL was seen, however, that the imm
territory could not be covered by
November 9TH, and as many of the
unions expressed wish to have the
date OF closing postponed it was agreed
to continue for short time longer. The
board pledged $4,000 toward the debt.
this sum to be paid from the revenue
from the temple. There is now
required only $6915, and this
SUM will be speedily pledged. A man
whose reformation was brought about
through the efforts of members of the
local union sent liberal contribution
another friend sent $125 from the east
and throughout the city, now that the
is an assured success, many
have promised subscriptions. The
board expressed their thanks to the
HERALD for the publication OF reports of
the canvass, and assures the public that
no attempt will be made to collect
amounts pledged until the entire
amount is subscribed.

HUNDREDS OF REPORTED NAMES
A Long List of Illegal Regis
tratiOn Cases Noted.
Startling Testimony Given in a Di-
vOrce Case Yesterday.
Proceedings In the Various Tribunals
Yesterday-New Suits Which We're
Filed-Notes on Cases which
Were Considered.

A complaint was filed in the United
States court yesterday charging P. T.
Hebler. a teacher of languages, with il.
legal registration.
This makes two complaints of that
character, so far filed in that court. but
q large number in picl lie, and will be
issued as soon as the papers can be pre-
pared.
The complaint against Hebler is that
he registered, although not entitled to
do so. tits alleged that he has only re-
Gently returned from four years. resi-
dence in Mexico. The records show
that he was naturalized in the superior
court, in this city, July 28th last, and
he was registered July 30th.
Up to the present time about 400
names have been reported to Chief Fed
eral Supervisor Frank p. Flint as being
illegally registered. Yesterday morning
the Democratic central committee re-
ported list OF about so names, which
were found to be wrong, while the Re-
publican committee was engaged also in
preparing similar list. Both commit
tees are lending all the assistance they
can in tracking down illegal registra-
tions, and the result will be a big batch
of cases in the federal court.
The federal supervisors are at work in
the different precincts hunting out sus-
poets, and have already turned in the
names OF a number of people who are
on the great register, but could not be
found at the residences given. One of
the supervisors yesterday reported list
of IA such names. They have ascer-
tanned some curious facts. They have
found vacant lots, stores and empty
houses at the numbers given by some of
the persons registered.
Supervisor Flint was busily engaged
all day yesterday in going through the
lists reported to him and picking out the
most fragrant cases for speedy action.
He is of the opinion that there may
be good many out of the 400 names he
has received, in which the persons had
no intention of registering illegally !;
that many were met on the streets by
the foraging deputies and could not rec
ollect the exact numbers of their resi-
dence3 or rooms, and thus erroneous
descriptions were taken by the eager
deputies, who were trying to get in as
large lists as possible.
Mr.. Flint believes that large num-
ber of the errors in the great register
arose from the slipshod work of the out
side deputy registration clerks, aud this
is very easily seen in the certificates
turned in by many of them.
1t was thought that the grand jury
might turn some additional indictments
loose against illegally registered people
yesterday, as they were in session dur
ing the forenoon, but they made no re-
port. 1t was ascertained that they will
not likely make any further report until
November 9th, the day after the elec-
ton. They were not in session yester-
day afternoon.

THANKSGIVING DINNER.

The Good Work Undertaken by the Cos

The second meeting of the committee
on Thanksgiving dinner, to be given
under the auspices of the Pacific Gospel
union, was held Friday morning, No
vember 4, at $3.50. at the residence OF
Mrs. CLARK, 933 South Olive street.
A large number of ladies were in at
tendance. All were very enthusiastic
and determined to make the dinner a
success. The city has been divided into
districts and accredited committees ap-
pointed to visit each house to solicit
contributions. 1t is hoped that all will
respond literally. The next committee
meeting will occur Monday, November
7, at 2 p. M, at the same place.
