with lovely creations In the sofiest shade of

SOME SENSATIONS
The Defense Closes the

HEATH PUT ON THE STAND.
He Swears He Did Not Kill the
Lawyer.
A JUROR TALKS TOO MUCH.
A Criminal Charge Was Pending
Against McWhirter at the
Time That He Died.
HEATH PUT ON THE STAND.


The defense In the case of Mamie B.
McWhirter against the Connecticut
Mutual Life Insurance Company closed
the opening of Its case suddenly yesterday
afternoon. There are some twenty odd
witnesses summoned by the defense who
are here from Fresno. but who were not
examined. and the supposition is that their
testimony will be used when the defense
puts in its case in rebuttal.
The plaintiff commences with her evil
dence this morning and Mrs. Nc Whirter
will be the first witness put on the stand.
The incidents in yesterdays trial were
the appearance on the stand of Richard S.
Heath, who is accused of killing Nc
Whirter. and the introduction of testi-
mony showing that at the time of his
death a criminal charge was pending
against McWhirter.
Judge Gilbert gave the jury a lecture
after the noon recess. in which he said
that he had observed some of the jurors
arguing over the testimony of witnesses.

Considering the price OF these exquisite
pieces OF tableware IL might be well for the
purchaser 10 keep silver spoons in them per
manently. but the pleasure of drinking tea from
such faiy-like utensils might compensate one
for the anxiety TO which their possession would
give rise.

HE KNEW DA CANA,
r. p. Schwerin Talks About the
Rebel Admiral.


The present troubles IN Brazil and the promi-
nent part that the nsurgenI Admiral da Ga ma
is taking in them causes much interest TO
attach to anything that may be published about
the man himself.
X. 7. Schwern, manager OF the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, and who is among the ris-
ing young men in the big offices OF the Southern
Pacific Company at Fourth and Townsend
streets, met the rebel admiral many times, and
yesterday gave CALL reporter some parlicu-
lars regarding the distinguished Brazilian.
In Is "a MIR. Schwerin was attached to the
United States steamer Dispatch. which was
then lying at the port of New York. At that
time Da CANA came up from Brazil Ia COM
mand OF the schoolship Admirata BarrOsa, on
board of which was LOT of midshpmen on the
annual cruise made by those naval students.
Among the midshipmen was the young grand
son of Dom Pedro about whom so much is
now being published ard whom it is asserted
Da Cana Is anxious 10 place upon the Brazilian
throne.
Mr.. Sehwerin said that there was a notice
able feeling of friendship between Da Cana
and his young pupil at the time. They were al
most constant companions and the peculiar
social relationship which usually obtains
aboard man. war between an officer aud
those under him and which naturally prevents
familiarity seemed 10 be eliminated in The asso-
cIalion between the two.
Da CANA was at that lime about 81 years OF
age and a man whose personality would attract
attention in any assemblage OF men. He was, in
fact, strikingly handsome man, and was de-
cdedly American IN bis manner, speaking Eng
lish fuently. He was one of the most popular
officers in the Brazilian navy, not only among
those who were has equals or superiors, but
among the subordinate officers and the enlisted
men well.
During the Paraguayan war he had several
times distinguished himself upon The field of
battle, and for his valuable ana nored services
he had been awarded several medals Tor The
honorable part lie look in those events.
AT that time he was the youngest command
ing officer In the Brazilian navy. Some four
months were spent by Da Cana in New York at
that time and The impression he made among
the American officers who met him was OF a
very favorable nature.
MIR. SchweEin said that he met the admiral
again in Rio in 1887, when the former was on
the TheLis and the latter commanded the
Riachuela. Being brought In contact with him
a number OF times both AT The clubs aud on
board ship only served 10 increase the high
opin on which MIR. SchweTIn had formed OF the
admiraPS worth as a man and an officer.

Mr. Thornton moved to strike out the whole
testimony. The object OF Offering the testl-
mony by the defense was to sustain its sec
ond allegation Of their answer 10 the suit,
namely that when McWbirter got bis insur-
ance he failed TO tell the company that his life
had been threatened and that he expected
trouble which might end in his death.
The count held that the testimony was rele-
want and denied the motion 10 strike out.

angles continued Mr. Gates. "were Mr..

The jury was excused and Z. f. Bernhard,

might hear his evidence and decide whether or
not 1t should 90 TO the jury. The witness said i:

court sustained the objection 10 its intrOduc-

until 2 O'Clock.
The first witness after recess was Walter G.
Thompson, who was examined as TO the cor
