the east along the avenue. Manuel slipped
behind tree. and when the citizen was
within few yards of rim he stepped out
into the roadway. As soon as the citizen
saw him he turned and ran at terrific
speed, disappearing along OctaVia Street.

the street and was trying to enter a house
from the rear when FennelI thought it was
time to interfere and placed him under ar
rest. When searched at the City Prison a
dagger fifteen inches long was found in

Ten years ago an acrobat and trapeze
performer came to this city to play an en-

which was then under the management Of
Stockwell and Andrews.
Before the end of the first week the thea
ter closed and the trapeze performer was
left stranded in strange city.

about $4,000. but this money was not &C

Was Assistant to Dog-catoher Writ But
Saw His Error and Reformed--Now in
Jail for Larceny.
When James E. Writ was dog catcher
of this city he had for his helper one
Benjamin f. Hopkins, who ably assisted
the dog catcher in gathering In all the
collarless and unregistered CANNES he
could lay hold upon. One day Writ
and Hopkins quarreled and when
Hopkins asked the dog. catcher for his
share of the spoils it is said that Writ
kicked over the traces and dispensed
with the services of his helper then and
there. From that day Hopkins renowned
all allegiance to Writ and his dog
catching trade, and promised to lead a
life less turbulent than that of the
average dog-killer. He notified Judge
Ball Of his intentions and promised to
discontinue his frequent visits to
municipal court room, which invariably
taxed his pockeLbook to the extent Of

Last Monday Hopkins cut an impor.
tant figure in court, but instead of hav-
ing to answer for the charge of drunk.

with the theft, which he stoutly denied.
When they arrived in this city she
caused her escorts arrest and he was

him the pocket.book to hold, while

says he believes he heard the woman
say that this is true, but he is not quite

TEN THOUSAND VICrIMs.

Oficiai Reports of the Ravages of the
Plague at Hong Kong and Canton.
Associated Press Dispatch by Special Wires
WASHINGTON, July 1S.-Reports have
been received at the Marine Hospital
Bureau from the consuls at Hong Kong
and Canton, regarding the prevalence
of the plague in those cities. Consul
Seymour writes from Canton that the
deaths from May 1st to June 9th in
Hong Kong were more than 1000, in
Guiding two or three foreigners, while
Consul Hunt of Hong Kong gives the
total at 95i for three weeks ended June
9th.
The deaths in Canton during the pre-
valence of the plague since the last of
February are reported at 10000, and all
victims were natives. Hong Kong and
Canton are both treated as infected
ports.
The following telegram has been re-
ceived from Assistant Surgeon McKeene
Takama, in response to directions to in
vestigate reports brought by the Vic
toria of cholera in Canton:
Victoria officials say reports from Can
ton are unfounded. The plague exists at
Hong Kong, death rate 43 per day. Re-
ports of cholera false.

found in the stomach, but the lungs
were decomposed, and whether there
had been water in them the physicians
could not say.
State Detectives Witsil and McVey
testified to the statements made by
McCollom when arrested. He said that
il they had been day later he would
have gone to sea. He was anxious for
them 10 arrest llentzelman also. The
latter was arrested in Philadelphia. The
prisoner said that Willis was with them
when they left the long bridge, but
when they got down near Reedy Island
lighthouse, lleintzelman said, where's
Willis?" McColom looked and he
was gone. They declared they did not
know how he got out of the boat.
Charles Shubeit was recalled and
testified that the fishing season was
over and Heintzelman had told him two
weeks ago that he was going to Phila-
delphia. The sktff has been taken to
New Jersey for an overhauling.
This concluded the evidence and Mr..
Giles asked for the prisoners release.
McCollom was told he could so where
lie liked.
1t is understood that the defence
would have proved or attempted to
prove that Willis was subject TO epilep.
tic fits, and was seized with one of
these spells and fell overheard. They
also claim that this explains the discol-
Grafton of the face and the fact that the
tongue was protruding at the time the
body was found. In reply to this
James L. Willis says that his brother
was not subject to spells of this char
actor.
Deputy Acknowledgement Giles said
he would probably wire the Philadel-
phia authorities to release William
Heintzelman, the other prisoner.
