COULD NOT BE STEAMBOAT.
Probably One of His Sons That Was
Killed.

News has been received from Oconomo-
voc that the great stallion Stamboul was
killed by railroad train in that city Sat
urday. The story, horsemen say, is evil
IDENTIFY incorrect. Stamboul is owned by
E. H. Hartman of New York, who pur-
chased him at the executors sale of the
horses belonging to the estate of the late
w. S. Hobart, paying SAL 600 for him. In
the telegram from Oconomowoc it is said
he was owned by Andrew Hildebrand and
was valued at $4,000. STEAMBOAT was never
valued at as low figure, and as far as is
known was never in the Wisconsin town.
He was foaled in 1892 at the establishment
of L. J. Rose, San Gabriel, Cal, who dis
posed of him to W. S. Hobart of San Ma
teo. Since becoming the property of Mr..
Hartman Stamboul has never been west
of New York.
The horse referred to as having been
killed by the cars may have been one of his
sons, either Stamboul .Jr. or Stamboula,
but neither of these is worth $50, 600 while
such stations as Wilton, 2:194, sell for
$4,000.

When reporter visited the house yester-

met by Mrs Milen the young woman's
stepmother, who said her daughter had
gone to the Odd Fellows Cemetery to de-
post some flowers on DR.. James grave. an
act which she has daily performed, Mrs.
Milen added, since his interment. Mrs.
Milen gave quite history of her daugh-

ried life

DR.. James the morning after we came here.

selections on the piano for him.
From that time on he began to paw her

because / did not understand what young
girl like Laura could have seen in man so
old as Doctor James. Indeed / was prob

about him."
''This infatuation first began to sprout
the latter part of December" said Mrs.
Milen, and then she told how many pres
ents DR.. James had given her and her
step-daughter.
Toward the latter part of December DR..
James wrote to my husband at Redding
and told him of his love for Laura. DR.
Milen wrote to Laura and told her to suit
herself in the matter
"About the same time Mr.. James wrote to
his niece in the East and told her he
thought of marrying again. In her reply
she made no reference to that portion OF
his letter, at which he seemed greatly
amused and remarked that she did not like
the idea.
"On January Laura told me that he had
asked her to marry him, and that they
had entered into contract. | cot the i'm
preston that it was verbal agreement.
and it was not until later that she told me
there was a document. He wrote to DR..
Milen again and told of this contract
marriage. My husband came home on the
18th inst and they had some conversation
together"

band had them.

James and Laura live as man and wife ?''

Eyes; he said he wanted her to- have
everything; that she made him perfectly
happy, and that his relatives had never
done anything toward his pleasure. Al
though she does not know, Laura would
not be surprised if a will were found in the
desk when it is opened"
When questioned about the contract
Mrs. Milen said that Laura had told hel
that Dr. James dictated to her, she wrote
it and both signed. 1t was quite short, but
the young woman could not recall the
wording.
''What does Laura hope to get out of this y

Henry's life has been dramatic one,

Potrero hills after Captain Macdonald
died, he has had two sets of friends and he

The Bishop then dwelt upon the fact that
because wife in San Diego poisons her
husband the fact is berated everywhere
but that nothing is said of the thousands
of mothers whose lives of self-saerifice, love
and affections bless our homes. There are
many wives in California whose lives are
as beautiful as those spoken of in the
cluslon the Bishop said that because ini-
guilty abounds it does not justify any one
in being skeptic, a scoundrel or a skulker
from duty and that all should remember
that the end is near, that the end of tempt
alton, of pain and Of sorrow may be nearer
than many think and that all should pre-

building of the synagogue, advancing
many cOgent reasons for so doing.
Some few days after their pastors adj
dress a meeting of prominent mem bers of
Sheriff Israel was called for the purpose
of taking action on the suggestion thus
given out A committee, consisting of
Henry l. KOwalsky, Philip y. Aronson,
Solomon Zekind, n. Schlezinger and H.
Posener, was appointed TO investigate
matters and suggest ways and means of
furthering the project.
The committees report was presented at
meeting of the trustees held one evening
last week, and included a very full and
comprehensive view of the situation. The
principal feature of the report was a rec
Ommendation that a gymnasium and in
sritute be founded in connection with the
synagogue. This institute will comprise a
lecture-hall, reading-rooms, library, classes
for physical culture and for the study of
music and history, the whole forming a
combination of institutions unique among
Hebrew congregations in America.
The estimated cost of the new place of
worship is $4,000. To raise this sum it is
thought that it will be necessary to dis
pose OF a valuable piece of real estate
owned by the congregation, the old ceme-
terry on Nineteenth and Dolores streets, as
well as the property on the corner of Post
and Taylor streets.
The site of the new temple will be in the
Western Addition, between Suffer and
Ellis streets, and not further west than
Octavia street. The appurtenances,
scrolls of the law, hangings, etc, may
possibly be removed from the old syna-
gogue and additions made to them by
means of fair given by the ladies' COM
mittee.
The Sheriff. Israel congregation was
founded in 1851 by few English settlers
in California, principal among whom was
Isaac Nathan. The present edifice was
erected in 1870
A special general meeting of members of
the congregation is to be called in the near
future to take prompt action and for the
purpose of choosing a location for the pro-
posed house of worship
