Whether Mr.. Kern or his assistant will
appear in the case or not, the stand that
Mr.. Trude takes will undoubtedly have
an outcome in the impending trial in
PrenGergast's mental condition.
The trial proper will not begin on Mon
day, as WAS planned. When Mr.. Trude
appeared before Judge Chetlain last Feb
ruary he asked a further stay on the
ground that, owing to his absence in
Florida, he had been unable to make adj
equate search for authorities TO sustain
him in his contention that Judge Chetlain
has no jurisdiction in the case. G. S.
Darrow, one OF Prendergast counsel is
engaged on another case, the importance
of which precludes the possibility of his
looking after the assassin's interests for
at least ten days. In view OF this the
States Attorney subscribed to an agree
ment to-day by which no objection on his
part will be made to the application that
will be made on Monday by the prisoner
asking for a further postponement of the
examination.
All this means that Prendergast will be
allowed to sojourn in comfortable cell
i'll an insane asylum, instead OF going to
the galloWs.

Scofeld entered into conversation with
her. She related an incident which hap
pened at Red Bluff in which Mrs. Wayne
took part Then for the first time she
recognized both ladies. This incident
had been almost forgotten by the other
lady. These ladies drew from her many
statements, proving her without doubt to
be the first Mrs. George Decker.
When she left Sacramento Valley thirty
years ago ii was on the steamer The Lark,
Captain Rodgers. 1t was here she first
met these ladies. After reaching Red
Bluff Mrs. Wayne secured her ticket and
put her with her two children-Eva, now
Mrs. Preston. and Ben, now dead-on the
stage for Shasta Valley, where she was
met by Mr.. Decker.
Mrs. Decker says that when her brother
put her on the stage and registered her as
Mitchell she would have protested that
that was not her name had she not been
afraid that she would have been unable
to claim her baggage This was always
thought to be a queer circumstance, and
as Decker would never explain it, the
people looked upon it with suspicion.
The following year Mrs. Scotield dis
covered that Mrs. Mitchell, as she had
known her on the boat, was living in
Shasta Valley, and was Mrs. Decker.
This was i'll 1865. During the following
summer Mrs. Decker visited these ladies.
1t was in January, 1866, that the daugh-
ter Nevada, was born.
Mrs. Decker says it was by mutual con-
sent that Decker and she separated, she
taking the baby and leaving him Eva
and Ben. Mrs. Decker had three chill
dren by John Davis, her second husband,
though only Cne is now living.
Nevada is small, pale-faced, blue
eyed little woman, who looks as if she
has had her share of trouble. Since her
sixteenth year she has been forced to
make her own living. John Davis, her
step-farther, was cruel and abusive to
both the mother and child. Mrs. Decker
had always told Nevada that her father,
sister and brother were dead, and she
therefore never made any inquiry con-
cerning them.
Mrs. Preston was called before the
jury, and the mother recognized her.
The jury then exonerated George Decker
and he was declared free man.
The meeting between the father and
the daughter whom he sent away left but
few dry eyes. Nevada rushed to him
and. throwing her arms around his neck,
sobbed, My father!' Decker was much
affected. The meeting between Decker
and his ex-wife was very formal. They
simply shook hands and remarked at
the change in each other.
The daughters of Mrs. Decker No. 2
were present at the meeting. They were
very much elated over their fathers in
nocence being proved. They intend to
keep the new stepsister with them for
some time, and hope that rest and quiet
will do much toward restoring her
broken health. 1t is believed that Decker
will aid both his ex-wife and daughter
financially.
Decker looks pale. He has lost much
flesh since his incarceration. The people
express great satisfaction that this cloud
over Decker for so many years is cleared
away.

Girls Who Sell rheir Hair.

''Do we have many girls to sell their
hair? Well, 1 should say so; but we do
not make business of buying, on ac-
count of the risks we would have to run.
/ have had girls come to me and offer to-
sell their hair as it was on their heads.
No, they don't get good prices-SI 90 to
81 90 being as much as / ever gave. I
know of one case, however, where WE'LL
known society woman took fancy to the
hair of young lady she met accidentally,
and she paid the highest price have ever
known for a head of hair. The young
lady in question had luxuriant growth
OF golden brown hair, and one day she
was approached by this lady, who was
compelled to use false hair, who said to
her: Miss -. ii at any time you desire
to part with your hair, you can find
customer in me- The young lady was
in need Of pin money at the time and
said: We'll, am not particular about
keeping it now, as it is little too light
for my TASTE So she agreed TO have her
hair cut, and in payment received So so.
If girls could always get such sum for
their flowing locks, there would be
great many more short-haired young
ladies about the .n-Pittsburg Dis
patch.

DECKER A FREE MAN.
The Alleged Wife Murderer Proven to
be Innocent.


YREKA, May 20.-George Decker is en-
joying the air of liberty. Yesterday after
noon the doors of the Siskiyou jail were
thrown open and he walked forth a free
man.
This took place after his first wife and
her daughter Nevada had told their stor-
les before the Grand Jury. Their state
ments were convincing, and the jury lost
no time in making amends as far as it
could to the accused man. The most it
could do was to fully and completely ex-
onerate him of the terrible charge, and
this it quickly did. The jurors expressed
their regret for the suffering caused him,
and rendered their congratulations that
the dark cloud of suspicion had been
completely dispelled.
Mrs. George Decke Hamilton arrived
in Yreka yesterday at 1:l5 P. NJ. The
depot was crowded with people to see the
woman who has been considered dead
for the past twenty-seyen years.
She was Immediately conveyed to the
courthouse, where she testified before the
Grand Jury. Mrs. Hamilton has seen
great deal OF grief and trouble and it has
affected her mind, making her forget
many things OF importance. Still she re-
memb bered incidents which her question
erS had forgotten until mentioned by her.
When the train reached Edgewood Mrs,
Samuel Jackson, her nearest neighbor
while resident of Shasta Valley, boarded
the train. She made her way to Mrs.
Hamilton and asked her name. She re-
piled that she was the former wife of
George Decker OF Shasta Valley. She told
Mrs. Jackson, whom she did not recog
nize, that she had lived on Mrs. jack
sons ranch and had visited Mrs, jackson
at the birth of child, telling an accurate
story.
When asked if she recognized her ques-
toner she hesitated, closely scanned Mrs.
Jackson's features and replied: NO.
though 1 think have seen you before"
At the depot Mr.. Eddy recognized in her
the Mrs. Decker of twenty-seyen years
ago and shook hands with her.
Before the jury she was very nervous
and it was some time before she was COM
posed enough to answer the questions.
Witnesses from her former home were
called but failed to identity her. Mrs.
Sarah Wayne of Fort Jones, who travelled
with her at one time, questioned her, but
Mrs. Hamilton failed to recognize her.
Even when her name was spoken she
said: Wayne, Wayne: no. don't know
you,'
Lunch was brought to her in a private
room, and Mrs. Wayne and Mrs. +. IL.

A PIG STORY.
Two Porkers Carried Many Miles in
an Indiana Cyclone.

Two Porkers Carried Many Miles in
an Indiana Cyclone.
ELwooD Qnd.), May 2O.-During the
heavy cyclone the other day two hogs and
a fat goose belonging to Sam Wainscott
were blown from his barnyard in Peoria,
Ill. These very pigs and the companion
goose are now in the barnyard of L. j.
Hancock, near this city. where they were
dropped by the cyclone which swept
over this city at that time. It was about
2 o'clock in the morning when Hancock
was aroused from his sleep by the storm.
He went out into the barnyard to look
after his stock, aud his attention was at
tracted to the clouds, in which he saw,
during lightning flash. the pigs and
goose. Suddenly they dropped TO the
ground in his yard, and the next morn
ing they were as lively as usual, having
suffered only slightly during their peril
Gus trip Of 207 miles through the air.
Mr.. Hancock wrote to Mr.. Wainscott,
asking for description of the missing
pigs and goose, and it tallies perfectly
with that of the animals in Mr.. Han
cocks possession.
