HELDFOR FORGERY
Charles Hogberg Swindles
His Wife.
She Was Young, and After Taking Her
Property He Left Her to Fight
Lies Battle Alone.

Detectives Seymour and Whitaker ar
rested Charles Hogberg last night for
forgery and lodged him in the City Prison.
Hogberg is a Swede, about "a years old,
and will be sent to Portland, Or, where the
crime was committed.
He was found in lodging-house at IS
Natoma street, just as he was preparing to
depart for Australia, where his family re-
sides.
Hogberg is a deceiver of women. 1t
appears that about six years ago he became
acquainted with beautiful Swedish girl
named Mary Blomquist, who had been be-
trayed by her lover. railroad employe,
who lived at Brainerd, MINI. She became
the mother of boy, whose c0wardly father
gave her $500 and then married another
woman whom he had deceived.
Miss Blomquist purchased lot In Port
land from c. A. Collins and worked as
domestic for five years to support herself
and her child.
She made the acquaintance of Charles
Hogberg, who was then keeping a saloon,
about one year ago. and married him.
She gave him money to purchase an inter-
est In a saloon, but the venture failed and
the Sheriff took charge of the place. Hog
berg, notwithstanding the failure, had
money, and lived like lord for loEg time.
He formed partnership with another
saloon-keeper and at the same time tried to
find a purchaser for his wife's lot. He
found one, and induced his wife to part
with the deed on the ground that he wanted
to have II recorded.
Hogberg did not have the deed recorded.
but did have another name inserted in
place OF his wfe's name, and forged the
name OF G. A. Collins TO the copy of the
deed. He gave the buyer to understand
that he was Collins. He sold the lot and
came to this city, leaving his wife and child
to take care of themselves
He made a full confession of his guilt
TO the detectives who arrested him.

lodged swift throw from one Spies. Lob
man very kindly struck out and closed the
chapter.
The fourth inning was the occasion of one
tally by San Franciscos, contributed by
Spies, assisted by BalsZ with a single.
In the sixth Los Angeles added three
more runs to the score and things COM
menced TO look hazy for your Uncle. The
runs were contributed by Lohman, Roach
and Wright. LOhman's twO-base hit was
converted into run when Roach hit 10
Sharp and that gentleman failed TO hold
the ball Wright singled. Almost any
thing else would have been preferable at
this stage OF the game than the base on
bnlls which was given HuIen, because it
filled the bases and opened the way for
more runs. But Basz had lost his eyesight
Tor the time being, and Hutchinson re-
ceived he same generous donation. This
allowed Roach to walk home.
Glenalyin improved the opportunity to
swat a terrific line hit. Mr.. Balsz was di-
rectly in the track of IL, but concluded that
1t wasn't ripe enough to pick. and it passed
on to Sharp, and in the meantime Wright
crossed the home plate. A fy by IytIe to
When the San Franchises came up for the
ninth their side OF the score lacked four
figures of being a winner, ana the story of
how they made those four talles is quite
IuIl Vi lultIttl.
Power sent out fly to Van DYKE and
reached second base on the strength of It,
because Van Dyke was not equal 10 the
occasion. After Spies had been thrown out
at first by Hutchinson Levy sent the ball
out into Pap Lytle's territory, bringing in
Power and going to second himself. Ma
guiIe and Ebright both singled, and Carroll,
with his opportune three-base hit, assisted
them IN crossing the plate. Work retired
the side at first.
The Angels still had half of an inning
left and could have done very we'll with
TWO tallies. but two tallies at that stage of
the game were hard TO get. Roach got as
far as second base on his hit, but he died
there. Wright was thoughtless enough to
send long fly out where Reuben Levy
generally stays, aud it was fatal Hulen
might still have saved the day If he had not
knocked fly to center field, where Work
pnlled il down.
To-day the same teams will play over on

have Knell to contend with.

"'e''eOTa was a suspicious lump
there, and DR.. Berry shook his head. The
man has either dislocated or broken Ills
neck" he said.
When DR.. Somers saw the patient he con-
firmed DR.. Berry's diagnosis, and caused
the friends to be notified that the injury
would result fatally.
They came yesterday with an express
wagon on which was a mattress, and the
patient was removed as carefully as possible
TO his home at sos Sansome street.
The exact point where Burke's neck is
dislocated or broken is at the third ceryical
yertebra. The spot is just too low down to
cause such speedy death as happens IN capt.
tai punishment by hanging, but death is
certain. In cases Of this kind it takes Mace
by cessation of the functions of the body.
Burke can talk quite nationally and feels no
pain whatever, but practically he is dead
from The waist down.
Two similar cases have been recorded
within the last few years; one that of John
Herber, proprietor of a saloon under the
Yosemite House. who died In FIVE days; the
other man named Cuneo, living on Powell
street, who died in three days.
Attemlts have been made, when il has
been supposed that the neck has been
merely dtsl0cated. to reduce the disloeatinn
by suspending tue patient but the remedy
Is almost as bad as the disease and death
ensues. In any case such injury has been
done 10 the spinal cord in Burke's case as to

Your scientific crank who never misses a

Mr.. Bnrchers did not join In the exer-

four tallies had been made. 1t can be
stated with certainty that Carr0lPs batting

Louie BalsZ pitched the game out for San

right lively shape. While the balls he
threw seemed to have plenty of speed, they
also seemed TO come IN contact with the bat
at close Intervals, which intervals were so
close that at the end OF tile eighth inning
1t looked as though Los Angeles had the
game pncketed.
Los Angeles came to the bat on the last

The bark Gatherer is what is commonly

She has had more incidents In her long
