Mrs. McKindrich had kept in the house.
A reward was offered for McC0rd's arrest,
as it was known that he had been hangiD e

The Grand Rapids police traced the

SPENCER AS A MAN.
Personal "reminiscences of the Great
Philosopher.


William 81. Hudson, a young English
man who was Intimately acquainted with
Herbert Spencer, delivered a lecture at
the Second Unitarian Church on Twentieth
street last evening. The lecture was one
of series of university extension dis
courses which have become popular in this
city. Mr.. Hudson confined himself to a
personal description Of the English phil
osopher, saying his subject was Herbert
Spencer, his life and work." but this he
made highly interesting with original
thought AID "reminiscences
The church was comfortably filled wit a
critical audience that gave evidence in it's
applause of an appreciation for the lectur-
er's pleasing and at the same time instruc-
tive address.
After leading up to the subject in an
introdutiOn of generalites on philosop ophy,
literature, education and influence of GER
tain minds on popular thought, the
speaker stated his belief that when the
literature of the nineteenth century few
names only Will stand out prominently.
Spencer's Is one of THESE names. From
this on there VAS a good deal to remind
one OF MOrley's editorial introductions in
the lecture. Mr.. Hudson told his audience
how very little is known of Spencer as a
man, and the reason is Spencer has been
in delicate health for forty years and is
extremely modest and of a retiring dispo-
sition. Spencer as a boy was headstroug,
as student at school he detested
restraint and such things as cram

The murderer had just attended a Saliva

The murder of Mrs. McKindrich created
the most intense excitement al Grand

A Magnificent Picture of Them in
Part Six of Picturesque

Vernal Falls. in the Yosemite Valley,
is conceded to be one of the most beautiful
sheets Of falling water in the world. Il
has not the grandeur of Yosemite Falls,
but is more pleasing in Its varied moods.
Every view is beautiful, and the fore
ground and background seem TO form
natural compositions ready for the artists
brush. The water plunges over a cliff
more than 800 feet high and, .umbling
into the blue depths below, breaks into a
thousand rainbow tints. Sometimes il
falls into a smooth sheet, and IS then of a
pale green that flashes and sparkles like
an emerald.
People who visit Yosemite spend hours
gazing at this lovely sight. and all are
anxious to obtain some picture of it that
will keep its beauties in their memory.
In portfolio of Picturesque Califor-

Vernal Falls that all who have seen pro.
nounce unusually accurate. Rapids formed
by the water from the fall tumble over the
rocks in the foreground and the fall itself
is located in the center of the picture.

LOOTING A HOUSE.
Work of Daring Thieves
on Scott Street.
The Residence of Captain Morse En-
tered During the Absence of the
Family in the Country.

A daring attempt to loot the residence
of Captain Charles c. Morse, Scott
street. has been frustrated by the timely
arrival of a member of the family.
About week ago the family went TO the
country to spend a few weeks, and the
only one left behind was a son, Charles
Percy, who is with the firm of j. f. Chap
man g. Co., shipping and commission mer-
chants. He took his meals downtown,
but slept IN the house at nights.
Last Friday he met with an accident
breaking his collar bone, and went to live
tn relatives in Berkeley till be could be
fit TO work again. He returned to his
fathers house on Monday night, and on
entering was considerably startled by
what he saw.
The whole place seemed to be turned up
side down. Bureau drawers and the chef
fonier had been stripped Of their con tents,
which had been made up into bundles
convenient for carrying away. The plated
ware was packed in bundle along with
some clothing, and the most valua BILE por-
ton of the furniture had been gathered to-
purpose of speedy removal
On goiug to his own bedroom he found
that most of his personal effects and Jew
elry had been carried of, among the latter
being valuable gold chain with pendant
IN the shape of an English sovereign. A
considerable quantity of clothing ana other
effects are missing, but the full extent of
tie loss will not be known until the family
returns from the country.
Every nook and crook of the house had
been searched for valuables, and even the
mattresses on the beds had been cut 0pen
in the hope of finding some plunder Sc
creted there. The family had fortunately
taken with them the solid. silverware, and
il is supposed that the thorough search
made by the thieves had been for these
articles.
Entrance had been effected by a side
window, which had been forced open with
The help OF a Jimmy" the catch having
been broken off. The thieves had gone
about their work in careful and system
attic manner, as no one In the neIghbor-
hood had observed any suspicious char
aeters around the premises. If it had not
been Tor the Opportune arrival Of young
Morse everything portable and valuable
would have disappeared from the house,
Ii Is surmised that the absence of the
family in the country nd of the young
man at Berkeley had been known to the
thieves.
Young Morse reported the matter to the
police yesterday morning, and an effort
will be made to locate the thieves. Ii is
supposed 10 be the work of a gang that

BOUGHT HER DEAR
How DR.. Lycan Bargained
for a Ship.
Paid $1,000 for a Schooner That He
Had Never Seen and of Which
He Never Got Possession.

A suit is on trial before Judge Slack
which is of some interest in determining
the rights of ship captains over their ves-
sells in the hour of emergency.
DR.. Edward Lycan is plaintiff in the suit
and be asks for S25.000 damages from w.
n. Smith ct al, including the Fireman's
Fund and Sun insurance companies, for
the alleged unlawful conversion of the
ship Dora Blum.
1t appears that the schooner went ashore
on a sandstrip in the bay OF Topol oba mpo,
Gulf of California. on Decem Der 90, 1892
DR.. LycaD was a resident of the coast at
the time. and be claims to have purchased
the sch ooner Tor $1,000. under the masters
impression that she would go TO pieces.
Eventually. however, she fosted off and
away, and was subsequently seized by the
insurance companies, who refused to give
her up. So DR.. Lycan appealed to the law.
According to the testimony of the cap
tain. Roger Walton. it looks as though the
plaintiffs story were true in the main, and
The question is undoubtedly one of law.
Captain Walton testified that storm arose
during the eyeniful voyage and his
schooner was unavoids bly, driven on the
banks. Feeling certain that she would go

In a boat and negotiated with DR.. Lycan,
whom he described as ''the only man in
the place who had any money" for the
sale of the vessel. Lycan offered $3.50 at
first, but finally the bargain was struck at
$1,000. But Lycan never got possession, as
the insurance companies seized the
schooner, and it was through their instru-
mentality as we'll as good fortune that she
eventually floated.
The peculiar point about the whole
story is that Dr.. Lycan appears to have
taken Captain Waltun's word for it tn at
the schooner was there, and for sale, as he
testified il court yesterday that. although
he paid $1,000 in good lawful money for his
prize, yet when the bargain was concluded
he had never even set eyes on the
schooner, or convinced himself that she
was indeed there.

arresting her several times on tie minor
charge of failing to keep an entry, for
which she was always ready to pay the
fine imposed.
The police say that she is the only

and they have at last got a clear case
against her.
On the night of March the tailoring
shop of a. P. Horn berg, 427 Bush street,
