Weber, after spending Monday night
in the quarters OF the unemployed and

Louie Hop was employed and bought a
cigar. A boy waited upon him and depos-

the receptacle, and Weber, leaning over
the counter, seized 1t and made for the

caught him by the leg. Five Chinese who
were asleep in a rear apartment were

third entered his abdomen.
We bier, who came to this city from Salt
Lake ten weeks ago, said that he took the
money because he was starving and that he
used the revolver because he feared that
the Chinese would kill him.

There was a larger crowd than usual
even for Saturday at the Bay District
track yesterday. and they were provided
with some capital sport.
Wildwood's presence in the handicap
was no doubt big attraction, and he car
ried big amount of money. His defeat
was sad blow to the talent, who. how
ever, may fairly be said TO have broken
even with the bookmakeFs on the day. as
two favor les, second and third choice
won their respective races. Wildwood
would have been disqualified, even though
he had caught the judges eyes first. as he
lost lead pad at the head of the stretch,
and would have been some pounds short
of weight. A. Ottinger COWS he has done
forever with running horses az the end of

that Wildwood will return into the pos
session Of Pedigree Brown, from whom the
ticket agent has been leasing him.

CHILD STUDY.
An Interesting Lecture on the De.
VeIOpment of Youth,

j. G. Kennedy, principal of the Frank
lin Grammar School, addressed the FEEDER
alton of Women yesterday afternoon on
the modern theories of "Child Study
from physical basis. He coniended that
the only practical manner in which youth
may be brought to complete condition
both mentally and physically, is by the
careful study Of lis individual weaknesses
both in mind and body, and the Develop
mem OF each by means of stamping ont
the evil with the gradual influence of
good.
'rhis method" said the lecturer. sis
especially applicable to intellectual de-
fects, as is well demonstrated by the
phrenologist. If at school child shows a
particular backwardne>s la certain stuaies
he should be carefully instructed in that
particular branch until the weakness il
fully strengthened.
''If this rule is applied to all cases of a
similar nature. complete and healthy
condition of the entire human fran. can
be brought about in course of time, and
unless otherwise influenced will continue
e. develop with the natural growth of the
body"
