BEFORE THE COURT.
Brought Up and will Take Some
Time.

The adjourned session of Court began
on Monday at ten o'clock, with Judge
Hoagland presiding.
There were quite number of prison
ers present and there seemed to be some
interest manifested in the sentencing of
prisoners who were in Jail.
Walter Sheppard, who had pleaded
guilty to stealing bicycle, was brought
in tor sentence. When the Court was
sentencing the young man, Judge Hoag-
land said information had been received
that since he was in jail he had attempted
to break Jail. This was an element of his
character, and must be taken in consid-
Grafton in making up judgment, and
Sheppard was thereupon sentenced to
two years at hard labor in the State
Prison and thence until the costs of the
prosecution were paid.
The Court then called the appeal case
of McKim, appellant, and Overseer ofthe
Poor, appellee.
This is the case of Miss Bertha Wood
ruff against J. CORTLAND McKim, the
charge of bastardy. Messrs. Mitchell and
VanSyckel appeared for the defendant,
while City Solicitor Trenchard appeared
for Miss Woodruff whose case was
brought up in the name of the Overseer
of the Poor.
Mr.. Mitchell first opened asking for a
dismissal of the proceeding owing to
what was claimed as illegal proceeding.
For more than an hour Counsel for
either sides argued the respective sides of
the case, and the argument on the law
tory had subsidized the Court decided that
the position taken by Mr.. Trenchard was
correct, and the trial proceeded, and will
take nearly all the afternoon.

CAUGHT ON A TRESTLE BRIDGE
An Aged Man Struck and Killed by a
Train.

WooDsTowN, N. j., Oct, 29-Samuel
Croft, aged so years, was instantly killed
here to-day while walking on the track OF
the West Jersey Railroad. Mr.. Croft was
crossing the trestle bridge over the mill
pond, dangerous practice, against which
many have been warned. He was over
taken by the 8 O'Clock train from Salem,
and the whistle of the engine seemed to
confuse him, for though he was near the
end of the structure, he stood still in the
centre of the track, was struck and in
stantly killed. Mr.. Croft leaves a wife
and two children.

viii Help Again.

The independent voters helped the Re-
publicans to carry the State in 1898 by a
plurality of %, 800 on the Assembly ticket,
and last year they assisted in swelling
that plurality to 2S,47S on the Congress
sional ticket. 1t is idle to suppose that
they are going to allow the old gang of
unsavory memory to come into power
and set up another racetrack gambling
and State stealing regime. The inde-
pendent voter knows too much for that

Mary had little lamb
You do not look surprised
OF course you don't, for Mary has
been widely advertised.
And something you may learn from this,
If you are not clam;
You can be just as widely known
AS Mary and her lamb.
Your name can be a household word
And you be known so well,
That folks will confidently buy
The things you have to sell.
And wheE you once have got yourself
Into the cheering rays
OF the sunlight of publicity,
You bet your life it pays.

IHE thousands of people who visited
the PAVILION last tair time will doubtless
remember the exhibit on the main floor
OF gas generator, the invention of Ma
chinlst COOK OF this city, and it will be
news to Sacramentans to learn that the
machine Is now in operation at the Palace
Restaurant at 800 X street. The working
of the generators which Mr.. Cook is now
manufacturing is so perfect, and the SUBJ
Ject OF so much favorable comment. that
the proprletorS Of the restaurant decided
to purchase one, and it has given entire
satisfaction. The capacity OF the machine
is forty lights, aud the popular restaurant
is now brilliantly lighted. Another mat
ter which the successful business man
does not overlook is the fact that the cost
Is about one-third that of ordinary gas.
Since the machine was seen in the Pa
vilion, Mr.. Cook has made some impor-
tant improvements. and it is now an au-
tomato gas generator, being wound up
by water motor of the inventors own
device. The oil runs to the machine only
just as fast as it is used, and in this way
only very small amount is ever being
used at one time. Once placed in posi-
ton, the generator runs itself. and all
that is necessary is to keep small sup
ply of oil IN tank, from which the ma
chine takes its supply. There is no waste
at any time, and even the most ignorant
person in the world could not asphyxiate
himself If he turned on a dozen gas Jets
in one room. 1t is possible that before
many months have passed there will be
a great demand for these useful and eco
nomical machines. The one now in place
has attracted great many visitors, and
the proprietor OF the restaurant is always
ting them to observe the workings of the
generator,
