YESTERDAY.

Seton Heather, one of the founders Of
the business conducted so successfully
by Whittier, Fuller & Co. and now by
W. F. Whittier, died in this city yester-
day at the age Of II years.
Mr.. Heather many years ago severed
his connection with the business he and
the elder Mr.. Fuller started in Sacra-
mento in 1850, but retained his interest
in paint mine in Pennsylvania, which,
together with money invested in United
States bonds, gave him a fortune esti-
| mated at a half-million dollars.
For some years past he had been a
sufferer from asthma, and as the eli
mate Of Sacramento agreed with him
better than that of San Francisco he
spent much of his time here His daugh-
ters, Mrs. H. c. Heiatt and Mrs. c. B.
York of San Francisco, We're with him
in his last illness and at the time of his
death.
Mr.. Heather's wife died here in early
days and is buried in the City Gene

ROndS

THOMAS Lynch, charged with obtain
ing goods under false pretenses, was
discharged in the Police Court yester-
DAY, there being some doubt in the
mind OF the court as to his guilt
The examination of John Billiard Tor
threats against the life of J. E. Lawless
resulted in his being required to give
bonds for 5000 to keep the peace, with
the alternative of six months in Jail.
Lawless testified that last Sunday
morning Bullard called at the place
where he lived and he heard him ask
where that little English -
was, as he wanted to shoot him." Law
less locked his room door and Billiard
tried to get in.
Other witnesses corroborated the tes-
tlmony Of Lawless. AS usual, there
was a woman at the bottom OF the

A hundred yards above the brink
Of the American fall a rock ten feet
square projects for foot above the
water in midstream. One morning
the inhabitants awoke and saw a
man sitting on it. The noise of the
rapids prevented verbal oommunica-
ton. They did not, do not and new
err viii know how he got there. He
staid there SO hours. The people
teleGraphed to Buffalo, and the rail-
way company sent one excursion
train after another for SO hours to
see the man on the rock. They
painted signs and stuck them up for
the man to read, saying, I'VE will
save you Two hundred yards
above there is a bridge. From this
by ropes they doated RATS with pro-
visions to him. At the end of his
stay a big one came for him to get
ON. What they were going to do
with him if they got him in this
aeething rapid is not known. He
tried and failed and went over the
fall, and that is all.-Blackwood' q
