THE CASE DIsMIssED.

Magnetic Healer Mingo Not the Lessee
OF Mission-Strest Premises.
Professor c. A. Mingo. gentleman of
color and professional magnetism, wants
il % be known that he is not the lessee of
the house at 834 Mission street, where a
Mrs. Wilson was recently baoly beaten by
Jack Condon of soda water fame, who re-
sided with her Professor Mingo says that
the lessee of the place is a Mr.. McRae, and
that the apartments occupied by Mrs.
Wilson were on the floor above his.
He says that the profession of divine
healing scored bullseye in the Barker
case, which was recently dismissed. Bar
ker, while treating by laying on of the
hands Mrs. Hyland. who was suffering
from an excessive use of drug, was ar
rested for practicing medicine without a
license. The prosecuting witness could
not stand the ordeal of a trial owing to
nervous prostration, and though Barker 5
counsel proposed to continue the case to
suit the prosecuting witness, they were
not inclined to have it continued and the
case was ismissed.

FROM SUISUN
E. G. Wright and C. Kinds
Cleverly Captured by Po-
liceman Ryan.
They Were Trying to Dispose of Their
P.under to Pawnbroker on
Third Street

Two burglars from the interior were
cleverly captured by Policeman 7. L. Ryan
on Saturday afternoon at Third and
Market streets.
The police had been notified that the resi-
dence OF Mrs. Josephine Davis of Suisun,
Solano County, was entered by burglars
last Tuesday night and large quantity OF
silverware and other articles were stolen.
1t was expected that the burglars would
make their way to this City to dispose OF
the plunder.
Ryan was on special duty, and Satur-
day afternoon he dropped into the pawn
shop of Andrew Coleman, Al Third street.
Two men were there at the time trying to
dispose of some silverware, which they
had in a telescope basket. Ryan's sus-
picions were aroused and he asked the
men where they got the silverware. They
gave him an evasive answer and hurriedly
left the store.
Ryan followed them, and at Third and
Market streets placed them under arrest
and took them to the City Prison. On ex-
amining the contents of the basket, Ryan
discovered q pawn ticket for gold watch
and chain AID a diamond ring in the name
of Josephine Davis, dated in April last,
This gave him clew and he accused the
men of committing the burglary at Mrs.
DAVIS house at Suisun, but they stoutly
denied it. The men gave the names OF
Edward 6. Wright and Cortis Kinds, and
their occupation as laborers. They are
both young men.
The Sheriff of Solano County was notified
of their arrest. and yesterday morning
Constable Kinloch arrived with Justice's
warrant, charging the men with burglary.
They were booked en- route to Suisun, and
last night Constable Kinloch left with

cupfuls of coffee did not alleviate his dis
tress. The champion, seeing defeat at
hand, put on bold front in the hope that
the other bettors would again seek to
hedge; but they had watched the craning
of his neck and bulging of his eyes over
the last egg and were gloating silently.
The thirty-fifth egg went the way OF its
predecessors. and then Parsons leaned

tators. 1t was the exulting shout of
Envy's triumph. The king of egg-eaters
was dethroned. and by plate of pork ana
beans.
Failure cost the egg-eater 81 40-the
price of his meal. Like Corbett, he admits
that he underrated his task. and intends
to try again. He Is likely TO WIN.
