KIMBALL'S KILLING.
The Examination OF Henry
Keller Commenced.
Some Rather Contradictory Evi-
dence offered.
The Testimony Clearly Shows Kel-
ler's Self-Defense.
Charles Rochette, the Prize Fighter,
Tells Vague Story-The Ac-
counts Given BY Eye
Witnesses.

The examination of Henry w. Keller,
charged with the killing OF Charles HI.
Kimball, the Santa Monica saloon-keep-
er, last Saturday morning, took place
before Police Justice Austin yesterday.
The testimony of Coroner Weldon and
Drs. Chaffee, Folsom and Rogers was
taken with regard to the nature of the
wound received by Kimball. Their tes-
timony was to the effect that the ball
first struck Kimball on the forearm,
making slight wound, and then pass
ing under and slightly to the left of the
chin, making a groove to the center of
the throat, where the ball re-entered,
and passing in, ranged downward and to
the right OF the heart about six inches,
then passing through and lodging under
the skin under the right shoulder blade.
DIR. Weldon illustrated with gun how
the different wounds could be made by
the same ball, proving conclusively that
at the time Kimball was shot he was
in the act of raising the shotgun to his
shoulder.
Charles Rochette, the prize fighter,
was next placed on the stand, and his
testimony was of an exceedingly vague
and contradictory character. He testi-
fed to seeing Keller and Constable
Dexter enter Kimball's saloon, and that
he ran over into livery stable where
he heard the shot fred. Later he put
his head in the saloon door and had met
Keller as he was coming out. He ad-
mitted also that he had seen Keller
nol n !
by Hon. s. M. White, but his responses
were of an incoherent and tangled char
acter, the witness saying he had been
too much excited by the affair to give an
intelligent account of what he had seen
or heard.
Carl Rapp; the lad who was in the
saloon at the time the shooting occur
red, seemed to be the only one who
could give an account of the affair. He
testified that few minutes before Kel
ler arrived in the saloon, he heard
Kimball say that he was going up town
to hunt Keller. Rapp then went into
an adjoining room and proceeded to
clean stove. He had only been there
a short time when Kimball ran in and
picked up his shotgun. Then followed
the shot that killed Kimball. The boy
further stated that as Kimball grabbed
his gun Constable Dexter rushed to-
wards him with uplifted hand, and
said: "Hold up, Charley, hold up"
Constable George b. Dexter next testi-
fed to Kimball picking up his shotgun,
and of his admonishing him not to shoot
when the shot was fred. Doctors RoQ-
ers and Chafee were recalled and gave
some additional testimony with regard
to the course of the ball, and the case
was submitted without argument. JUS
tice Austin then discharged the prisoner,
Keller, on the grounds set forth in the
finding of the coroner's jury.

ROMEO IN TOWN.
The Champion Tramp Print Bobs Up
Again.

Again.
"Romeo" Powers is known in every
city in the United States where there is
a daily newspaper. "Romeo" is famil-
iarly called ''the tramp printer. He
has wide acquaintance among the
printing fraternity, and no matter what
town Romeo strikes he is sure to find
acquaintances among the typos and the
barkeepers, Tor he has also had a
wide experience with the dispensers of
the rosy. Romeo" has just returned
to Los Angeles after an absence of sew
eral years. This is his thirteenth trip
across the continent. He has set type
in every daily newspaper Office in the
Union that is on railway, and has
never gone hungry except in cross
ing the desert where it is
long way between newspapers. 1t is a
matter of record, at least reputable
printers SO assert, that the longest time
that Romeo has worked at one office was
in Los Angeles during the boom, when
he worked for four consecutive days,
thus beating his best previous record OF
three days.
Romeo" is native of Syracuse, and
the last time he went back to the land
OF his birth he braced up, and the result
was that he captured the hand OF an
heiress and was married. Connubial
bliss did not agree with Romeo, as his
mother-in-law fired him out on the cold
world and once again he became tramp
printer.

Death,
And the Time and Circumstances of
His Death Are First Brought

After Many Years.

! Wednesday saw the fruits of a search
which has been prosecuted in vain for
upwards of eighteen years. And in it's
successful termination is a story of
privation, of suffering and of weary wait
ing and uncertainty, which is pitiful in
its relation and strange in it's results.
Early in the fall Of the year 1889 City
Clerk b. Fl. Barrett received a letter
from one Eliza Barry, written from
Washington, D. c., stating that she had
seen a notice in some paper that a
Joseph Barry had persisted in a storm
near Bismarck, N. D. The letter further
stated that the writer's husband, Jacob
Barry, had been absent. from her for
nearly fifteen years, and that she had
been unable to, obtain any trace of him
knew not whether he was alive or dead
and that as she had last heard from
him at Bismarck, she thought probably
that the Joseph Barry who had persisted
might possibly be the lost husband.
Mr.. Barrett interested himself in the
matter, and found finally that the Barry
who had persisted was not the one re-
ferred to. He then wrote to Mrs. Barry
at Washington, obtained a description
of the missing man, and placed an ad-
vertisement in the TRIBUNE, thus lnsti-
tuting an inquiry. Nothing was heard of
this for sometime, and finally came a
letter from one Charles Peterson in
Chicago, which set forth the following
facts in the case:
In the October of the year 1874 he
stated that he had established q feed
corral at Montana City, Mont, and that
there came to his place one Friday a man
giving his name as Jacob Barry, who
was i'll from an affection of the heart,
and who died the day after his arrival.
There were a number of persons present
at the time of his death, and to them he
told a story which was sad in it's rela-
tions, and which seems to have i'm
pressed his hearers deeply.
He, Barry, had been a soldier in Com
pany A, Cloth Pennsylvania volunteers.
At Gravel's Run, Va, he had been
severely wounded in the side by a shell,
which had rendered his health extremely
delicate, and after his discharge he spent
his every cent and the little money pos
sessed by his wife in endeavoring to
obtain relief from his wound. It was
finally rendered necessary that he leave
his home and come west for his health.
In September, 1874, he arrived in Bis
marck and finally drifted westward to
Montana City. From here he wrote his
wife at the usual address, but the letter
failed to reach her, she having left her
former home, and thus Barry was unable

Preachers and Medicine.

There is a dissenting preacher in one OF
the eastern counties who is thoroughly
conversant with the qualities of those
herbs and simples which old women some.
times employ so effectively. The result is
that his skill is in constant request by his
neighbors. John Wesley was no mean
physician, and even wrote a book on medi.
cine. Ministers who possess the requisite
knowledge and skill, following in his steps
and despising Mrs. Grundy, might easily
render the healing art both profitable and
helpful to themselves and to others.-Na.

DREAMS SCIENTIFICALLY ExPLAINEIa

They Are Mental Vibrations Caused by
Indigestion, Pain, Fever and Noise.
What the actual scientific view of dream
ing now is may be inferred from a lecture
delivered on the subject at the Royal insti-
tuition by DR.. B. w. Richardson. In the
poets view dreams are visitors from the
ivory gate, or, as Shakespeare calls them,
children Of an idle brain;'' but science is
more prosaic, and teaches that dreams may
be, after all, nothing more than the COM
mon vibrations of terrestrial media acting
upon u corporeal vibratorium,' like the

it has been struck by the musician.

illegible, a record, day by day, Of the ex-
%periences of Barry, during the war. 1t
contains loving letters, received from his
wife during the years 1S64-65. Also is
an old and quaint picture presumably
of himself and wife, taken at about the
time Of the war. Another picture of
himself, attired in soldiers garb, which
probably he sent to his wife after enter
ing the service. And the newest en-
closure is a worn, faded and tear
stained letter from his wife, received by
Barry in 1874, while in Bismarck, in
which, having learned of his having been
i'll, she implores him to come home.
Mr.. Barrett is justly proud of having
brought an affair, bristling with so
many difficulties to such a pleasing
close. Great credit is due him for his
persistence, and in the realization of
having by the assistance of the Bismarck
TRIBUNE brought pleasure to a now
aged and infirm woman, sorrowing for
the unknown fate of her husband, he
will obtain his measure of reward. The
atidavits and diary will be sent to Mrs.
Barry at once, and will, OPPORTUNITY,
form a Christmas gift, whose value is
not to be measured, or whose hallowed
associations are not to be expressed.
