the sitting room door.

"Nno. It's on the back of my neck"
Mrs. Bowscr is a very practical woman
and never loses her head. She got him
seated in Il chair and had his collar and tie
off inside of 30 seconds. She found red,
hard swelling and asked:
"Do you mean this spot here"

Even in winter if the hens are expected
to lay regularly, care must be taken not to
let them become too fat.
The principal reason why cooked food
fattens the fowls more rapidly is because it
is much more easily digested
When fowls are closely confined, the runs

NERVES UNSTRUNG
Mrs. Doolin in a Fit of
Mysteries.
Lively Scenes i'm Courtroom Dur
ing the Trial of an Action
for $4,000 Damages.

There were some lively scenes in Judge
Sanderson's courtroom yesterday during
the progress of the suit brought by Michael
Joseph Doolin and Mary Jane Doolin to
recover $4,000 damages for injuries re-
deraling of car belonging to the Omni.
bus Gable Company on Fifteenth avenue
on November II, 1891.
The case has been going on for some
days, and when Ii was resumed yesterday
General Barnes, who represents the de-
fendant company, pointed TO man sit
ting in the corner of the room and asked
if he was not in the employ Of Matt l.
Sullivan, attorney for the plaintiff.
81 have employed him." replied Sulli-
van, "but he is in the employ of Mr..
Doolin in this case"
Barnes growled something uninteIli-
gible. whereupOn Sullivan retaliated by
pointing out man named Morrisy as an
adjuster for tn Q Market-street Company,
at the same time accusing him of getting
witnesses for the defense.
Then Sullivan called Attorney G. 81.
Wilson of counsel for the defense and
asked him il the American Casualty Insur-
ance Company was not the real defendant
in the case.
II object" said Barnes. whereupon Sui
livan said he wished to show the American
casually insurance company DaQ insured
the Omnibus Company and that on this
account the railroads employees did not
exercise as much caution as they would
otherwise do. The court. however, ruled
the question out
Mrs. Doolin. the plaintiff. furnished the
next scene. She was wheeled into the
courtroom in an invalid chair, attended by
two ladies and was made TO tell how that
before the accident she was healthy ro-
bust woman, highly educate and accom-
plished, and how that since her misfortune
she could not even sing or play the piano.
She answered all the questions in a very
weak nervous tone and General Barnes
forebore to cr0ss-eXamine.
Mrs. Doolin was then wheeled out into
the corridor, when her nerves gave way
and she went into fit of Mysteries Shrek
after shrek rang out, while her husband
and friends did all they could to calm her,
but it was some time before she was re-
stored to her senses. Finally, she so far
recovered as 10 be able to enter hack and
be driven home.
The case for the defense has Just been
started and Gene Barnes, in his address
to the court. said that he expected to prove
that Mrs. Doolin's present unfortunate
condition was not due to concussion of the
spine nor was it brought about by an ac-
cident. On the other hand. her condition
was due to complaint which was present
before the accident.

THE KIDNAPPING CASE.
Fight Against the Extradition OF
Bailey, Alias Kennedy.

Carroll Cook has lost no time in com
mencing the fight against the extraditior
of his client. Thomas Bailey, alias Ken
nedy, who is wan ted in Detroit, Michigan
on an old charge of cons piracy.
A writ of habeas corpus was applied fol
and obtained from Judge Murphy of De
Norte in Department 10 of the superior
Court yesterday morning, returnable or
October 8, and served upon Chief Crowley
The prisoners name in the writ is given
as Harry Bailey, alias Thomas Kennedy
alias Thomas Bailey.
The Chief received dispatch yesterday
morning from Superintendent of Police
Stark weather of Detroit, that an Officer
would arrive here next Sunday morning
with the necessary requisition papers.
BE sent reply. asking for particulars Of
the offense, as he had been served with g
writ of habeas corpus, and received the fol
lowing answer:
Thomas Kennedy's crime is kidnap-
ing and unlawfully confning Joseph Per
rie3 here.
"The complainant is Alphonso Baker
and the otfense was committed on March
19, 1891.
"a new warrant was issued to-day as
of Detroit, Wayne County. Michigan.
'Our statute for this offense is section
9099, third volume, of HOwelPs Michigan
Statutes. and it is life penalty"
Manager S. f. Thorn stated that Bailey
first went to the hotel in October, 1891, in
the wake of some racing men who had
como hither from Chicago to attend the
fall meeting. He registered as III.
Bailey" and remained several months. At
about the same time last year he reap
peared on the same errand He posed as a
sport for some months, playing the races
with varying luck. Finally he told Mana
ger Thorn that he had gone broke" on a
favorite horse and that thereafter he
should make his living as a gambler.
His payments became very irregular
after that. but when logged up by the
cashier he managed to square up from
time to time. By summer he WAS debtor
TO the Grand for larger nount than was
considered proper for such a guest, and he
was peremptOrily notified to pay his bill or
leave the hotel.
Gin his room were valise and several
suits of clothes which he had accumula ted
during his ten months residence in this
city. A careful watch was kept TO see that
Bailey did not carry the vaIse on the oc-
casion of any of his exits. When he walked
out one evening wrapped in long ulster
no special attention was paid to him, for
the evening was cold.
He never came back to his room, and an
examination of the apartment showed that
it contained practically no apparel Every
thing of value had tsen removed. No one
could think how it was accomplished, until
clerk recalled Bailey and his loose ulster
He wore all his clothes at one time" I"
said the clerk at happy inspiration.
Under that ulster was Bailey with three
coats, four pair Of trousers and sever al
waistcoats. He seemed to be bundled up
oddly. but l never thought of that trick.
He has outwitted us all"
The story was too good to keep, and

pense of the hotel

ceive double share.
1t appears that Jeffray had an adopted
son, or rather one who was always so re-
garded. known as William Jeffray Simp-
son, but the testator appears to have made
up his mind that the lad should not come
in for any of his property, and lest there
should at any time contest arise over his
will the testator concludes with the fol-
lowing words:
This will is to have the full force and
effect of revoking, canceling and annull-
ing all other last wills and testaments by
me previously executed, and especially
dated May Is 1880. and August "a 1856.
I'm both of those wills William Jeffray
Simpson is mentioned as the adopted child
OF my deceased wife, and they were exc
cuted by me without my noticing the ex-
preston.
Recent events in San Francisco, among
which may mention what are known as
the Jessup and Blythe cases. have at
tracted my attention to the question, and
now wish to declare in the most solemn,
positive manner that William Jeffray
Simpson was not and Is not in any way
related to my deceased wife or myself.
either by blood or marriage, or was ever
adopted by us or either of US. He has
been cared for to great extent by my de-
ceased wife and myself simply to give him
such education and such opportunities as
would enable him TO earn his own liveli-
hood and make his own way in the world.
This comprises the entire extent of our
interest il him. When the former wills
herein specifically mentioned were exc
cuted IL was my intention to leave the

$1,000, but without rejecting on him.
circumstances have changed my mind
in that respect, and ! now mention him
for the express purpose of avoiding any
possible question, and Iartculsrly declare
that | have done for him all l purpose to
do. and that | leave him no part of my es-
tate or property, real or pc rsonal."

This anti-Chnese movement had its in
cepti0n little over two weeks ago

and since then it has grown until
to-day it is the ant-Chinese move
ment on the coast and great things are
expected of it. The difficulties in the way
of securing the carrying out of the law
have been cleared away one bv ones and
the firm of Reddy, Campbell & Metson
has worked enrrgetically in the matter. 1t
was difficult at first to secure the necessary
information against the Chinese. but that
seems now to have been overcome, and
number of laboriDg men. who have been
assured that their employers would make
no objection, have come forward to do
their share The hearty support rendered
by the business mems advisory committee
has also given the action great weight, and
within few days United States Marshal
Long will probably have his hands full OF
