Another Sewing machine" falSir has
been successfully victimizing the la
dies of this city. He came here on his
first visit in July and went to several
houses, contenting himself with pre-
senting his card and explaining that
the machines for which he was eXclu-
sive agent, were the best and cheapest
in the world. On his return here last
month, he called at the places he had
previously visited and said he was pre-
pared TO introduce the articles in AS
toria for $25 each, with IS to be paid in
cash and the balance on time. He coll
lected several advance payments, till
one we'll known lady became suspicious
and she said she wanted to see a sample
Of the machines. Perfectly unabashed,
the man coolly took her down to Grif-
fin G. Reeds store where a handsome,
high grade machine was exposed for
sale at the front door. He placed mis-
hands on it and told her that 1t was
the article he had the honor to repre-
Gent Satisfied with the inspection, she
paid the IS. And he never came back.
He got $5 from a poor woman on prom
ising to take the balance out in bath
ing suits which she agreed to make for

ing to run at Seaside next summer.

A WIFE-BEATER SENTENCED.
Louis w. Bauman Gets Six Months
in the County Jail.

Louis w. Bauman. who was convicted
last Friday of brutally beating his wife,
was brought before Judge Conlan yester-
day morning for sentence. Bauman is a
music-teacher at 230S Sutter street and he
punishe ed his wife so severely that her face
presented ghastly appearance.
He was represented by an attorney. who
made the usual motion for new trial upon
statutory grounds, which was lrompily
denied. He then asked the Judge to take
ito consideration the fact that Baumau
was in a "beastly state Of inoXica ion'' at
the time of the battrry and deal with him
as leniently as possible.
II asked this man expressly" said the
Judge, "about his condition and he said he
was perfectly sober at the time but was
exaspprated at seeing his wife under the
influence OF drink.
"This is the most dastardly and outrage
Gus assault upon woman that was ever
brought to my notice. 1t was brutal in
the extreme, the poor woman's face being
frightfuliy bruised and her nose broken
Even then she did not want to prosecute
him as he had been in the habit of beating
her and she regarded it as matter of
course. The Judgment of this court is that
the defendant be confined In the County
Jail for period of six months"
Notice OF apreal was given and the bail
was fixed at $1,000.

mental survey of the departments in the

nothing but praise for the liberal manner
in which money is spent for fre-fghting in

ties the San Francisco department would

DOCTORS TIRE OF LIFE.
A Large Proportion of Physicians
Kill Themselves.

MEDICAL RECORD.
Suicide is doubly Interesting to physicians,
not only as they study it in its professional
aspects and psychological bearings, but from
the fact that according to recent statistics ex-
amined by the Medical Record. probably more
physicians than any other class OF men die by
their own hands, lawyers coming next, and the
liberal professions as a whole furnishing about
one-ifth of all cases. Various causes have
be suggested TO account for his seemingly
abnormal development of tile suicidal tendency
among doctors, some ascribing il 20 OvercroWd-
ing and the struggle for enough work to maintain
life in such a way as to make existence inviting;
while others. with probably more reason, seek
the explanation In the greater tendency among
medical men 10 fall victims TO opium, choral,
cocoalne and other drug habits. Since suicide
increases with education and civilization. IL
must be demonstrated that physicians as a class
advance more rapidly In those directions than
do others, and simply show their superiority by
keeping al the head of the list. Unfortunately
for such theory, that of insanity (possioly the
result OF supposed civiliZing infuences) steps
in aud destroys whatever OF merit may attach
to the act to the fact of belonging TO the class
most given TO its practice.
NlOrsrlli speaks of 'the known disposition
OF doctors to become mad" Suicidal mania Is
undoubtedly traceable to hereditary predispo-
sumo IN others that man whose father k kiled

A MYSTERY SOLVED.
Why Bordwell Suddenly Disappeared
Short i'm His Accounts.

There is no longer any mystery sur
rounding the sudden disappearance of
Walter L. B0rdwell, the stable-nwner who
has been missing since the 4th inst. An
investigation into his accounts shows a
shortage of several thousand dollars which
1t is claimed he has sQuandered away in
gambling and drink, besides large sums
which have been collected by him without
any distribution being made to his partner,
Mrs. Brugge. who is also his sister-in-law.
George Brugge purchased the Nevada
Stables. at IS Clay street, several years
ago and conducted it on a wel-paying
basis. In the latter part of 1891 he en-
gagged Bordwell as his foreman, and the
two became greatly attached to each other
until about year ago, when Brugge was
found dead. At the inquest it was de-
cided that he had killed himself, but,
nevertheless. considerable comment was
made on the case, as there could be found
no reasonable cause for the rash act. The
matter WAS finally dropped and Bordwell
continued to conduct the stable until a
few months later. when Mrs. Brugge gave
him a half-interest in the business. THIS
was follnwed by the marriage of Bordwell
to Mrs. Brugge's sister.
For the past few weeks the reports
which he has always made at the first of
each month showed rapidly diminishing
business, but he could give no other reason
for this than declining patronage This.
however. aroused the suspicion of Mrs.
Brugge and she finally decided to make an
investigation into the books herself This
came to the knowledge of Bordwell and
he suddenly decamped and has not been
heard from since.
There are MANY rumors afioat regarding
his wild ventures, and thnse who know
him in barroom circles say that he has lost
through gambling and drink within a few
weeks several thousand dollars.
Detectives are at work on the case, but
as yet they have no knowledge as to his
