Judge found in this instruction as to the facts
OF the case should have gone to the jury, It is
said in People vs. Gordon, SO Cal. 426: t'That
Judges mnst not charge Jurles with respect 10
matters of fact, Is a constitutional prohibition
VIII CHI has leen jealousy guarded and rigidly
upheld from the earliest judicial history OF
the State"
In People VS.. Phillips, 20 Cal. 90, the trial
court detailed 10 the jury certain facts OF the
case as having been proven, and this court
there said: "Of course, this method Oh charg-
ing jury should be carefully avoided, but 1t
has been held here that an instruction assum-
ing fact does not demand reversal, II the
fact is Omitted or there is no shadow OF con-
hict of evidence with respect to it"
In the present case il there was any bona
foe claim that the killing was done in self
defense this instruction of the Judge would
demand q rev trial of the ease but we ex-
anime the record in vain for any such claim
by counsel. and look in vain in tnat record Tor
killing done in self-1efense. The de-
PENDANT herself testified: al have no recol-
lection of having ired shot at him.
Defendants counsel rested the case upon
the theory that if the defendant killed the de-
ceased she was insane at the time ana not
legally responsible for the act. That she did
kill the de ceased must De taken as q conceded
tact, and upon such concession appellant is
then lett to justify upon the sole plea OF nom
accountability. OF course evidence at the
| trial offered by defendant may take wider
range than his opening statement, and may
establish defenses not there adverted TO. Yet
here such is not the fact.
The most injurious construction TO defen-
dant which could be given the charge is that
in effect the jury was told by it that the ques-
ton of self-defense was not in the case. The
record scloses that fact without contradic-
ton and as matter of law, and there is moth
ing in the giving OF this instruction to demand
a new trial. There are many trials upon
charges OF murder where self-deiense is not
an element, and no harm could possibly re-
suit to the defendant IN sucn case If the
jury was so instructed by the Judge.
Other exceptions were reviewed and the
court found that the trial court committed
no error in refusing to give the various
instructions asked by defendants counsel.
The Judgment and order were confirmed.
The opinion ives by Justice Garroute, JUS
tees Van Fleet, Harrison, Mcfarland and
Henshaw coucurring.

Dewey pointed 10 their signatures on the

claimed was in the contract, and a lew

day morning it was ascertained that he
was in Los Angeles A dispatch was at
once sent to the Cher of Police there,
giving a description of Harris and asking
for his arrest on the char1e OF forgery in
raising the amounts on the contracts.
Detective Reynolds says that Dewey has
obtained between $500 and $500 from mer-
chants, but this sum may be considerably
augmented, as he has not yet been able to

theater for a romance. At that time she
looked like candidate for the boneyard,
now she flies the Nicaraguan flag and is
one of the smartest barkentines af1oat.
After being thoroughly overhauled and
retitted the Sharpshooter was loaded with
wheat for Australia. She sailed for Mary
thorough last June and it was then the ro-
nance began.
Miss Pearl Isabel de Salazar Kustel,
aged 16 years, and William Ezra Saville.
aged 81 years, both formerly lived in Cres.
cent City. The young man is wealthy in
his own right and the young lady was the
belle of tine town and the daughter OF Cap
tain Casimer B. Kustel, now of the Sharp
shooter. The parents thought the couple
TOO young to marry and counseled delay.
The youngsters thought they knew more
than their fathers and mothers and at
tempted 10 make a runaway match of it.
They were caught and brought back and
to prevent a recurrence of the attem pit
Captain Kustel determined to take his
daughter TO sea with him. When the
Sharpshooter was passing through the
Golden Gate he found as passenger
who had paid his way for the round Trip
young Saville.
A month later the gallant master of the
ship found that the lovers were deter
mined to be married as soon as the bar
entine reached Australia, and that 1ur-
thermore young Saville was made of
sterner stuff than he thought, so one night
marriage at sea was decided upon.
The SharpshOoter arrived last Sunday,
and the following entry from the cap
tains log tells its own story:
Married-On boa I'd Nicaraguan bark Sharp
shooter, latitude 8 deg. 30 min. south, longi-
tude 166 deg. 20 min. west, July II, 1896, by
Captain C. B. Kustel, William f. Saville and
Pearl lisa bel de Salazar Kuslel. second daugh-
ter of Cap tain and Mrs. e. 8. Kustel.
The romance did not end there, how.
ever. The young couple had a most en-
joyable trip to the Antipodes, and started
for home full of the idea OF giving their
friends in Crescent City and elsewhere a
genuine surprise. The father was not
counting on surprises, however, and while
satisfied that nothing could be more pind-
ing than the marriage on the high seas,
still he wanted the ceremony perfor med
again when the vessel was in dock. Last
night quiet little company assembled in
the cabin of the Sharpshooter, and there,
in the presence of all her relatives, Mrs
Saville was again married to her hus-
band. CONGRATULATIONS followed, and the
company spent an enjoyable hour. Mr..
and Mrs. Saville will leave on the next
steamer for Crescent City, where they will
make their home.
The bride is very handsome little
woman with black hair and dark eyes.
She looks older than her age, while her
husband looks younger than his 81 years.
He is a blonde, and either his whiskers
have not vet begun 10 grow or else he
shaves clean. He and his father-in-law
secured the marriage license yesterday.
and Mrs. Kustel was down from Crescent
City to witness the ceremony.
