SAN JOSE. CAL, Aug. 3O.-While
Lorentz Waechter of Mayfeld was walk
ing around seeing the sights of the city
last night he made the acquaintance of a
young man who claimed to be penniless
and had no place wherein to sleep.

and invited him to share his bed. The
stranger accepted the invitation, and they
retired about IL o'clock.
Waechter woke up a couple of hours
later, and found himself alone. His gold
watch and chain were also missing.
Waechter at once reported the matter to
the police, and Detective Anderson ar

Sacramento Restaurant on suspicion of
being the man wanted. He gave his name
as John Heggy. When searched at the
police station the watch and chain were
found on his person. He also had a rail-

clothes: Heggy claims he purchased the
things from Waechter for 81 20. He was
charged with grand larceny. 1t is believed

Ercmrssom to Vallejo Abandoned.

VALLEJO, CAL, Aug. 30.-The proposed
big excursion from San Francisco on the
18th of next month to Vallejo during In
stitute week has been abandoned by the
board of presidents of San Francisco Coun-
Gil. This action is due to the condemning
of the steamer Ell Captain by the United
States Inspectors of Steam Vessels. In
consequence the Southern Pacific Com
pany was placed in the position of having
to take the Newark, which had been char
tered for the excursion, to run as ferry
boat at San Francisco. This afternoon
number of local members of the general
committee departed for San Francisco to
try and arrange for an excursion on the
18th by rail.

side to-day was dark-skinned beauty, the
widow of Professor Nash, who committed

Nash had been Government superinten-
dent of the British schools in India for
some years, and was on his way home to
England when he took his life. 1t was
said by fellow-passengers that the constant
nagging and pickering between himself
and wife prompted him to the deed.
Mrs. Nash, it is said, was an Indian
Princess before she welded the pedagogue
She is now returning from an unsuccessful
search for the BODY in Seymour Narrows,
where she personally superintendent the
dragging work done by twenty native
canoes. Nash had a large amount OF
money and valuable jewels on his body,
and this accounts for the energetic efforts
for its recovery.
