 Lodtke then placed the revolver against his temple and fired. killing himself in stantly. Jealousy on the part of the man. who was about 40 years old. toward the girl for asSociating with lads of her own age is thought to have prompted the act

A. LUCKY ACCIDENT.

A Team and Driver Go Down an Embark
ment and Escape Injury.
An accident occurred at the place
where large cellar is being sxoavatsd
on Broadway. directly opposite the city
hall, yesterday, which fortunately rer
suited in no serious injury to any one.
but furnished considerable amusement
or crowd of on-lookers.
One OF the workmen WAS driving a
team and holding q pillow. A deep trench
had been dug through the center Of the
place, and the team was dangerously
close to the edge OF this--trembling ON
the brink, as it were. But the sturdy
plowmsn didn't notice this, he was
busy with his pillow. The loose earth
became unsteady, the horses attempted
to save themselves, but without success,
and down the bank they rolled. The
plowman even then didn't notice the abb
sence of the team. but il was only a
second before the impetus of the rush
of the horses down the bank gave tho
pillow violent jerk, and while the team
and pillow passed out of sight in the
trench at one side, the plowman,
yanked off his feet by the jerking OF the
pillow. tumbled down the steep bank on
the opposite side and was lost to view.
Bystanders rushed to the spot to find
both horsss and man uninjured save for
a few scratches and heavy coating of
the loose, moist earth.

The custom OF holding funeral services at
night is according to an undertaken seen by
a Sun reporter, growing steadily in New
York city. Its growth dates from about five
years ago. There were night funerals in New
York before that, but they were comparatively
few. The growth OF the custom is due TO sew
eral causes The night funeral is less expen-
sive, and it meets the convenience of much
greater number of friends OF the dead. With
the increase of societies and their growth in
membership the loss of a dav or half a day in
attendance at the funeral OF mem Der as
come to be serious tax, and i'll this respect
the night funeral makes saving OF lime.
In line with this economy of time is de-
cided change, within five or six years, in the
custom with regard to pail bearers. There are
now perhaps 30 funerals without pallbearers
to one with them. SONS of the night funerals
are held ct home, some at church. II at church,
the body is taken, after the services, to the un-
dertaker's and there kept until the burial. If
at the house, the body may be taken to the un-
dertaker's or it may remain in the house over
night. The morning service, a prayer by the
clergyman would be attended by only the i'm
mediate members of the family, who would
take leave of the dead alone. The interment
would be without further service az the grave
The number of funeral services held at under
dertakers' is also increasing. No charge is
made for the use of the shop for this purpose.
1t is in some respects more economical than q
funeral at home or church, and, with larger
space than within a house, it brings all attend.
ing together instead of separati them in
various rooms.

SANTA ANA.
The Measures to Be Adopted Against
Hobos Fizzi~ Out.


SANTA ANA, Jan. liz The committee o
safety composed of seven citizens, reported
last night at the meeting called for purpose OF
abating the hobo nuisance. 1t recommends
that all tramps bo arrested and sentenced for
long terms of from two to five months that
they be worked on Il chaingang during that
time and that the board of supervisors provide
hard labor for them. 1t was also resolved that
all cit zens aid and support the officers in the
prosecution OF tramps and the suppression oil
their outruges. 1t was resolved further that
the organization OF the citizens be deferred for
the present time and until the efforts of the
officers prove inefficient to suppress the out.
RACES OF these tramps
The meeting adjourned without anything
having been done. 1t is very possible that an
example wi be made OF some tramps at the
first outrage they commit. Cases of
impudence and attempted brutality from
hobos are constantly being repo ted
