Next Lecture of the Course by Rev.
Mr.. Voorsanger.
Rabbi Voorsanger of the Temple Eman-
uel, San Francisco, will deliver his lect-
ure on "Cranks and Dreamers" before
the Sacramento Lecture Association at
the Congregational Church next Monday
evening, January 22d. This will be the
first lecture the distinguished rabbi has
ever delivered before Sacramento audi
ence. His sermons and lectures have
commanded for him widespread atten-
ton in San Francisco and wherever he
has elsewhere spoken on the coast.
He is regarded as one of the ablest
thinkers in the State and as a lecturer
possesses the happy faculty of pre-
senting his subjects in a manner that
is clear, simple and yet most effective.
His lecture is replete with brilliant
sketches of the worlds great reformers
and teachers, such as Moses, Socrates,
Luther, Savonarola, Galileo, Buddha
and others, ali of whom in their time
were more or less regarded as cranks and
dreamerS.
The lecture promises to be one of the
most instructive and entertaining that
the association has ever been able to pre-
sent to its ticket-holders, and will doubt
less be listened to by an unusually large
audience

This Time it is Played on Butcher
Successfully.
The check racket was worked in very
raw manner on a clerk in an uptown
butchershop, on Thursday afternoon,
about ) o'clock.
A well-dressed man walked in and
bought meat amounting to sixty cents,
and rendered in payment check for S25,
purporting to be drawn on D. o. Mills
Bank by the Buffalo Brewing Company.
He indorsed the check to the clerk S
order, with the name George II. NJ,
the letters of the last name being indis-
tinguishable, and was paid the differ
ence in coin, and departed.
After he was gone, the victim be-
thought himself of fact which he knew,
but bad not thought of-that the Buffalo
Brewing Company does not bank with
D. o. Mills-and on examining the check,
found it was dated January l, 1898. He
also discovered that the smooth operator
had tried at saloon near by to dispose OF
the check. but could not make it work.

BRIEF NOTES.

There is one reason why you should
take an evening paper. If your morning
paper should get mislaid you can find the
same news in the evening paper. The
evening paper must necessarily be a sort
of second edition to the morning journal.
The location of the offices of the city
officials at Fourth and streets will meet
with general approval. The Office OF the
City Collector ought TO be in the same
building, as it is more centrally located
than the old City Hall. If the Collector S
Office was at Fourth and j many people
would pay water rates and license fees at
the Office, instead Of waiting for collectors

WITHOUT HOPE FOR THE FUTURE.
Despondent and Destitute w. S. Lloyd
Attempts His Own Life.
Sick and destitute, not able to work
and having no hope for anything better
in the future, W. S. Lloyd attempted last
night to take his own life.
He was seen to stagger and fall in front
of the Mechanics Exchange. and, the pa
troll wagon being sent for, he was taken
to the Receiving Hospital and City Physi-
clan Terry, who was sent for, attended
him, and brought him through.
He stated that he tried at three drug
stores on j street to purchase strychnine,
but was refused at each, but somewhere
on the lower part of b street he succeeded
in purchasing a bottle. His board was
paid up till noon yesterday, but he had
no money and had never begged and
never intended to do so, so he made up
his mind to go whore his bones would
never be found and commit suicide.
Taking the strychnine and an apple,
he went over tow ashington about 2 P. NJ,
and sprlnkling a liberal dose of the poi
son on the apple, he ate it. After waiting
some hours and feeling no ill-etfects, he
came back to the city and got cup of tea
at restaurant, and shortly afterward be-
gan to feel the effects of the poison, with
the result described.
Lloyd says he has brothers living six
miles from Bangor, Me-, but has not
heard from them tor two years. He has
been a cattle man in Montana for some
years, but from q disease in his leg re-
sembling dropsy, has become unable to
work, and has spent all his money with
the DOCTORS
Lloyd insists that it was of no use to
save him, for he will make a sure job of
it at the first opportunity. He is an in
telligent man Of about 65 years of age, and
has evidently seen better days.
At midnight he was sleeping quietly
and apparently free from pain.

frowning brows and averted eyes was
such a shock that even at this date /
cannot recall it calmly.
I supposed, of course, that his strange
conduct and Victorine's despair We're
caused by their knowledge of MI. Sum-

But why should Harry behave as he
did? Of course under the circumstances
we could not have expected the consent
of Mr.. Summers to our marriage, nor
could I give myself to the son of a man
who had SO injured the feelings of my
sister. I wa prepared for sorrow, but
we should not have parted thus. We
could at least have said goodby tender
ly. To cut me outright was ~ungentle-
manly, brutal, boorish. I decided that
I felt nothing but contempt for him.
