KNAPP'S TRICKERY
Warrant Sworn Out for
His Arrest.
He Got Part of Mrs. MiIIer's Dia-
mOnds to Buy Struggled Opium
and Divide With Her.

The story of II. r. Knapp's double deal
ing with George Miller, the stock broker,
and his wife. which was published exclu-
sively in THE CALL of Tuesday, will be
ven ntilsted in the Police Court if Knapp
can be found.
Yesterday Mrs. Miller sWOre out war
rant in Judge Joachimsen's court for
Knapp's arrest on the charge of grand lar
ceny by trick OF device. The articles in
question are two sets of diamond earrings
valued at $500.
The whole story was not told in Tues
days CALL. 1t appears that Knapp after
getting the two diamond rings from Mrs.
Miller as security for payment of his SER
vices in shadowing her husband made up
his mind to get from her the balance of her
diamonds.
He had so gained her confidence by tell
ing her that her husband had employed
him 20 shadow her that he found her an
easy victim. BE mentioned to her that he
had a lne scheme TO make money and
when the bait took he unfolded 1t TO her.
he told her he knew where he could buy
smuggled opium and by selling II again he
could make 100 per cent profit, which he
and she could divide. Mrs. Miller re-
minded MIN that she had no ready money
anu hudpb suggested tnat sue sdOuld give
him the balance OF her diamonds and he
could raise enough money on them TO start
the opium business. She accordingly
gave him the two sets of diamond ear
rings.
This happened on May in her house,
918 Fourth avenue, Oakland. She ex-
pected every day to receive a call from
Knapp with her share of the profits in the
opium deal, but she waited in vain, and
now she not only wants her diamonds
back hut also to punish him for obtaining
them from her by trick and device.
Mrs. Miller will not at present swear out
the warrant against Knapp for obtaining
the diamond rings by false prelenses, as
she thin ks The one charge is enough.
The warrant has been placed in the
hands of Detective Cody, who will find
Knapp II he can be found.

a sensation. There were six entries, and
the race was won after a close finish by

was boy named Charley Cole.
After the race was over Coles horse

against flagpole. Cole was knocked
seuseless, and he was quickly taken in an
ambulance 10 the Emergency Hospital,
where an examination showed that his face
and bead were badly battered, but that
the injuries were not serious.
Many of the spectators thought the boy

Cool Physician.

Dr. Schweninger, the trusted phy. sician of Prince Bismarck. is doctor who Is unaffected by the rank of his patient. His speciality is obesity, which he treats with such success that his patients flock to Berlin from all parts of Europe. The chancellor tried mineral springs and other rem edies to reduce his flesh, and having found them useless sent for Dr. Schweninger, then a young man of 34. The doctor, indifferent to his patients rank and prestige, cOolly put him through an exhaustive pro fessional examination.
 Bismarck is fond of asking cues tions, but does not like to answer them. He became impatient, then irritable, and finally declared he would not answer another question. Very we'll, !" calmly replied the cool physician, but if you do not want to be questioned you had better send for a veterinary" The audacity of the young doctor caused the chancel- Tor to remain dumb for 8 moment; then he grimly said, If you are as skillful as you are impertinent, young man, you must be a great London Million.

4 Victim Of the Vinegar Habit.

T once had a patient, said Law. renee Newcomb of Rochester, who formerly practlced as a physician, ''who poisoned herself with vinegar. l was never a burning or shining light in the medical profession, and hence it is not surprising that the case baffied my investigation for q year, though l have the consolation of knowing that four eminent physi- clans who were called in for consulta tion attributed the lady's evident breaking up to four different causes. none of them remotely connected with the real one. The chief symp- tom was lassitude and deathly white ness, and the lady, who had no other companion but an ignorant though faithful colored attendant, finally died before reaching her thirtieth year.
 Subsequent investigation proved that she was a vinegar fiend, and that, while refusing food of all de scription, she was drinking large quantities of vinegar AS the habit grew upon her she secured stronger grades until finally she was drinking acetic acid but very slightly diluted. There are cases on record of persons who have been poisoned by overdoses of vinegar taken to improve the com plexion, but this is the only case l ever heard of any one acquiring a vinegar habit and pursuing it stead ily until it caused death"
