HAD FITS FOR A LIVING.
A Fakir Who Has Been Making a
Good Thing of 1t.

A white man named Dresser was locked
up at the police barracks yesterday on the
charge Of cheating and swindling.
Dresser is a first-class fake. For sew
eral days he has been going about the city
soliciting aid and telling a pitiful tale of
misfortune. He usually reinforced his
appeal by going off in a fit, which gener-
ally brought contribution.
Dresser represented himself as a Jew
who had been the victim of misfortune, and
claimed that he had relatives in
Jacksonville who would assist
him If he could reach them.
Several Congress street merchants, to
whom he appealed, raised about So for
him, and also furnished him a ticket to
Jacksonville Instead of leaving for there
Dresser tried to sell the ticket to Harry
Karger, ticket broker, sending another
party. who 1t seems is his side partner
with the ticket. Mr.. karger discovered that
1t was the ticket, which had been pur-
chased for Dresser, and declined to buy it.
He also informed the contributors to Dres-
sers relief of his attempt to sell the tick
ct. They requested his arrest, on the
charges stated.
When Dresser was taken to the station
house, he promptly went into a fit, his
body apparently becoming rigid, and his
teeth set. Chief McDermott had been fore
warned however, and the affected fit had
no effect Dresser will probably have a
fit or two for the benefit of Recorder Will
son this morning.
The bids for the stock of goods Of D..
Kohler, which was placed in
the hands of Mr.. c. Fraser
law, as receiver, win probably be
opened this morning. 1t was expected
they would be opened yesterday, but
Judge Robert Falligant did not return
from Liberty county, having been detain-
ed there, II is supposed on a murder trial.
He is certainly expected back to-day,
however, and the bids will be opened this
morning There are seven bids in the
hands of the receiver. and there seems to
| be no doubt that somebody wants to get
! possession of the stock.
The trial over the remainder Of the es-
! tate of Cosmo 2. Richardson came up be-
| fore Judge Hampton L. Ferrill, in the
court of ordinary, yesterday. The portion
| of the estate In dispute consisted of lot
| of old silverware, paintings and old furni-
| ture Some of the heirs wanted the arti-
| cles divided, while others wanted the
property sold in a lump. An inventory
| was made of il yesterday afternoon, and
Judge Ferrill will decide within a day or
two what he will do with regard to the
petition.

An Indian Legend.

The red men of the west have many curious legends concerning natures marvels; none more weird than that concerning Rock lake, Washington. Since time out of memory the Indians of that vicinity have believed the lake td be the abode of a sea monster, which never grows old, and whose chief diet is IndianF flesh. According to the legend, no Indian ever entered it's wa ters and returned alive, no matter whether the rash act was committed by approaching it's margin for drink, for swim, or for canoe ride. So thoroughly is this belief spread among the Indians of the northwest that each and every one would prefer death to touching it's waters.

TURNED ON. THE GAS.
A Former Arizona Dressmaker Tried f,s.g.sxe to Commit Suicide. -,..}

Mrs. Belle Stevenson, a dressmaker who a couple of years ago resided. in Phoenix, but who since leaving here has lived in San Francisco, attempted suicide there Wednesday last. She was Respondent through illness and attempted to end her troubles by turn ing on the gas in her room at a hotel. The nightwatohman, hearing groans within the room, summoned the pro- prietor, and the door was opened. The woman, who was in great pain, was taken to the receiving hospital.
 The woman had registered as Mrs. H. Marks. She had entered the room fully prepared for suicide. A bottle of mucilage, another of carbolic acid, long strips of writing paper and a complete outfit of clean white linen were taken into the room in small hand vaise. After carefully pasting up all apertures through which gas might escape, she disrobed, donned the undercloth and, took a dose of the carbolic acid. Evidently the pain oi this was SO great that she rejected the most of it. She then turned on the gas and lay down to die. At what hour
 
 this was done can only be surmised She had rented the room and had been conducted to it between and 5 o'clock in the afternoon.
 When discovered she was writhing in agony from the effects of the car bolic acid. She was then taken to the receiving hospital, where Drs. fitz. gibbon, Rinne and Helms applied the usual restoratives. So carefully had she planned to conceal her identity that nothing among her possessions indicated her true name At the hos. pital she was known as Mrs. Marks when Professor M. La Font, in search. ing for a lodger missing from his house, went to the receiving hospita and identified the would-be suicide as Belle Stevenson. j
