nor the second who suffered at her hands.
You remember the Zimmerman story.
Zimmerman had her arrested for obtain
ing $4,000 from him under false Dretenses.
Well, the case was settled; there was no
proof against her in the Police Court, and
the case was dismissed. Hammerman,
who is an old man, signed letter eXoner-
ating her. but he told me and another at
toIney that he had not read the letter and
did not know what was iu il. She turned
over to him some real estate at Carmel,
Monterey County.
"Here is the story that Zimmerman

got acquainted with her. First she wanted TO

minstrel troupe that was playing at the Orphe-

Here is another case In which she
figured. and the lawyer who has charge of
the matter intends to have her arrested
for felony embeZzlement as soon as her
victim swears To the complaint. The al

a street railway company. He adnred
Miss Cullinan, and this is how
she requited his affection and conf
deDce. Kelly is middle-aged man
and rather unprepossessing. He met her
on August l, 1891. and entered into an
agreement with her by which she was to
buy real e~tate for him at Sunnyside or in
Monterey County on the installment plan.
She told him that she had bought for him
land at Sunnyslde and in Monterey Coun Y
valued at 5000. He paid the installments
until January 16, 1894. and gave her money

said Kelly, "because of the interest she
took in me. She did not give me a descrip-
tion of the land, and did not ask for 1t on
account of my con utidence in her. My

related to God. He has to fulfill certain
moral obligations to his Heavenly Father
he Is accountable to him, and he must
steadily recogn re the fact that day of
reckoning will come."
Speaking of the Christians relation to
| God, he said: "As sinners we are indie bted
TO the Justice of God we have nothing
with winch we can cancel those debts
therefore unless we are forgiven we are
| lost. But if the debts 10 Justice are for
/ given then we become debtors to divine
! mercv.
1--WE cannot have the old debt Cancelled
without contracting new one just a:
great as the old one. The credit is simply
transferred from justice to mercy"
As to what the petition implies he said
at IMPLIES a sense of Indebtedness to the
divine justice; fear of punishment con.
seQuenb thereon; an acknowledgment O.
Gods. mercy and prayer for forgive

Barred to Interviewers.

Miss Kate Cullinan, who was shot on
Stockton street by Charles Rush Saturday
night. was invisible to the interviewers.
Her sister guarded the door and told all
seekers for information that Kate was
under the influence of ether and could see
no one. The doctors say that Rush's bullet
is lodged in the ball of her knee.
Rush, the lovelorn mariner, has already
grown weary of prison life and has asked
his friends to give bail for his release.
He says that on one occasion when Kate
thought she was going to die she promised
to leave him all her property. "She forgot
all about it the next day." he added in
tones suffused with sorrow. "Ah. l wish

PHELAN Is DEAD.
Demise of the Painter Whose Shop
Was Burned.

Charles S. Phelau, a young painter,

an end to that which promised to occa-

Tuesday morning. paint-store located at
PLY Mission street, was destroyed by fire.
Phelan owned the store and was at work
in the place at the time The fire started.
Some oil in the building exploded and he
was thrown half way across the street, sus-
tanning injuries which resulted in his
death.
The store was insured for $1,000. and the
circumstances attending the fire were such
that Fire Marshal Towe deemed an inyes-
tigation necessary. Phelan was at first
taken to the Receiving Hospital and held
under rolice surveillance, but when il be-
came certain that he could not recover his
relatives we're allowed to remove him to
their home.
The Fire Marshal recently stated that
he believed the fire to be an inceDdiary
one, and expressed the hope Of Furnishing
the person who started it.
II is not unlikely that an endeavor to
collect the insurance on the part of Phe-
lan's heirs will result in legal complica-

the great faith David had in God. Elijah's
faith gave him perfect courage, and he was
not afraid to face the 400 prophets of
Baal, knowing full well that the Lord
would not forsake him at the hour of
need. THAT glorious man knew his God
better than we do now," declared the
speaker. "Some people think il is a won-
derful thiu 10 trust in God. Suppose you
get dollar bill. 1t is only paper. but you
have faith in the Government and feel
certain the bit of paper is worth dollar.
You would not sell it for 95 ceuis. The
Government promises to pay dollar for
it and you have faith in its value. Now,

subject appropriately TO the Easter season.

The speaker described the intellectual
condition of many who doubt immortal
ity, showing that there are various phases
OF denial, and asked what answer could be
given to satisfy all. Surely not the an
swer of theology. for it has been tried and
failed-not the answer of any creed. The
answer, she thought. to the question, rs
there anything beyond?" is to come out of
the consciousness of he goodness of God.
The universal life in which humanity lives
must be as loving and as meGciiul as is the
human heart, for as we are creatures so
are our sentiments.

layed by snowslide and powders on the

A young man named Harold Bolce, who
has written several articles purporiing TO
give the opinions of Professor Howison
and other members of the university fac
ulty, visited Professor Howison's room to
ascertain whether or not he would be al
lowed to remain.
He was told that his remaining was
against the lecturers will, and he then
asked President kellogg for a decision as
to the right of citizen in any university
lecture-room. The president decided that
but two classes of persons could claim ad-
mittance-students and visitors having the
lecturers permission to attend. Mr.
BULGE then distributed statements relating
to the matter. The members of the
philosophy class who were present at the
occurrence do not think the statements
correctly present the facts, and are now
preparing statement in rebuttal.
