The Emotion of Grief In Animals.

Dutch was a brown retriever of ad
vanced years; Curly was reputed to be a
Scotch terrier, but his appearance sug-
gested some uncertainty in his descent.

his friendship by frequently taking bones

Hanscom,s Heado.

Judgment was given to the plaintiffs
in the case of Thorpe Bros. VS.. B. F.
Hanscom and Baldwin Brown yester-
day by. Judge Belden. A loan of $1,000
was contracted with plaintiffs by B. F.
Hanscom In July, 1892. Previous to
that time Hanscom had been found in
sane by the probate court, and commit
ted to st. Peter. The defendants main
tanned that he was still insane at the
time he secured the loan, and that
Baldwin Brown, as his guardian, had
no right to make loan nor execute a
mortgage. Judge Belden, however,
decided that Hanscom was entirely
competent to conduct his business at
the time he secured the loan, and
stated that Brown lived only one block
from Hanscom, and was fully aware
of his business transactions. The
court also stated that Thorpe Bros.
acted in good faith, and had no knowl-
edge that Hanscom had not the right
to engage in any business he saw fit,
hence the mortgage is valid.

A Telephone Tragedy.

San Francisco Call.
A young lady residing on Octavia
street received a severe lecture from
her stony-hearted father the other
morning anent her receiving the at
tention of a certain financially ineligi-
BILE sweetheart, and demurely promised
to observe his cruel injunctions.
That afternoon, having occasion to
telephone to his house, the stern parent
was astounded as he placed his ear to
the instrument to recognize the voice
of the scapegrace in question holding
a conversation with his daughter.
DO you think it would be safe for
me to call this afternoon" asked the
sutton.
"Oh, yes, Charlie-but you must be
very careful" replied the young lady.
Dead sure the old hog won't be
around, eh?''
He'll be around in five minutes
with a club" roared the enraged father
through the phone.

Charles w. Drew, the state chem

eral days in an analysis of the
stomach of August Hanson, COM
pleted his report late yesterday aft
ernoon. 1t was Immediately turned
over to Assistant Attorney Peterson,
with the understanding that it
should be presented in court this
morning.
Mr.. Peterson was asked last even
ing in regard to the chemists report,
but declined to say to what extent
the analysis had strengthened the
case against King and Winters, the
two men confined in the county Jail,
suspected of having compassed Han
sons death by poisoning.
1t would not be proper for me. -
he said, ito give out the formal re-
port before it has been presented to
the court, because it would give the
defense a chance to counterfeit it..
However, the important fact is.
whether or not poison was found in
Hanson's stomach. l will say that
poison was found. Sulphate of NOR
Prime is usually used to dope peo-
pie, and you can guess what the poi
son was
He declined to say whether sufFi-
clent poison was found to produce
death, and in all probability expert
testimony will be required to deter
mine that fact. The formal report
of the chemist will be made public
this morning.

MARSHALL REMEMBERED.
Loyal Legion Sends u Token of
Love and ResDect.


A resolution Of sympathy and love
for ex-Gov. w. r. Marshall, who is
now dying at Pasadena, was adopted
last night by the Minnesota Com
mandery, of the Loyal Legion, of
which he is an honored member. r.
X. Henderson called attention to the
fact that it was very unlikely that
Companion Marshall would ever again
see his companions of the commandery,
and Col. j. Ham Davidson heartily
seconded the suggestion of a telegram
of sympathy. I'VE can send our flow
ers and wreaths after he is dead, but
they will not appeal to his silent
heart. Let US send him a token of
our love while he yet lives" And
the recorder was directed to telegraph
the fondest love of his old companions
to the dying soldier.
Previous to this. the club enjoyed
felicitous programme of "reminiscences.
Quartermaster George W. Grant, of
the Soldiers home and Surveyor Gen.
S. S. Brown, were elected to member
ship, at the business meeting which
preceded the monthly supper, and
after the banquet, DR.. c. G. Higbee
related some interesting "reminiscences
of an officer of the line in the cam
paigns iii the West and South. Gen.
J. H. Baker supplemented DR.. Higbee's
remarks with some gossip of the in
surrection of German volunteers in St.
Louis against the leadership of Gen.
Blair. who was assigned to their COM
mand.
