FISHERMAN STEIN
Suddenly Passes Away As the Result of

Suddenly Passes Away As the Result Of
a Snake Bite-An Interesting Life.
This morning about 10 o'clock
San Antonio lost a former promi-
nent citizen ia the death OF Mr..
Franz Won Stein, aged 80 years,
who died rather suddenly at his
residence, 531 South Presa street,
from the effects of a moccasin
snake bite, received while fishing
along the river about six weeks
ago.
Deceased formerly owned the
homestead property and fine sa-
loon at the corner of Alamo and
Villita streets, and was very well
to do about 20 years ago. He suf-
fered reverses, until in later years
he had managed to make only a
precsrious living by catching and
selling fish and by sharing birds.
He was a well-known figure among
our citizens. Deceased leaves q
wife and five small daughters in
this city, the youngest a
babe of about six months. He has
two adult sons in Dallas, who
have been telegraphed to. Mrs.
Stein has aided her husband in
the battle for life by doing the
work of a laundress anu while her
husband has been ill the past few
days she has had to keep up the
struggle and was in the yard hang
ing clothes on a line when he pass
ed away. He had apparently re-
covered from the snake poison and
had resumed his work, up to few
days ago, when swelling Of the
limb again set in and he became
unconscious, and continued so I'M
til he died.
The friends of the family have
interested themselves and will see
that the remains are decently in
TERED and the family is assisted.
In Germany Mr.. Stein was a
member Of the landed gentry, who |
assume the prefix of Won
to their name.

TIRED OF LIFE.

New Orleans, Nov. 6.-Meyer
l.. Navra, one of the best known
insurance agents in the south,
committed suicide by shooting
himself through the brain, with a
32-calibre Smith and Wesson re-
vOlver at his home, No. 757 st.
Charles avenue, corner of Louis
lana avenue. Death was almost
instantaneous. Relatives of the
deceased can assign no cause for
the rash act, and say that they
know of no reason in the world
which prompted him to end his
earthly career.

WHAT CONSTITUTES GAMBLING.
Alderman Miiiar Says Friendly
Game Is All Right.

To draw the dividing line between a
friendly game" and gambling at poker
was one of the various things Alder
man Millar was called upon to do yes
terday.
The question was brought up in a
sequel suit to the cross suits at Alder
man Howe's Office the night before be-
tween Mrs Nj. II. Clifford, alias Mad
anne Aubrey, professional anticipat-
or. and William H. Terry, of Adams
avenue, with whom the madame board
ed. She ran up board bill of S75 and
as he alleges wouldn't settle. TO get
even he had her arrested for pretending
to tell past, present and future events
for a Decuniary consideration. She
had him arrested for assault and bat
terry and attempted criminal assault.
Both We're held in bail for court
Yesterday Madame Aubrcy's hus-
band. VI. II. GiIoId, had Terry arrest
ed Tor keeping gambling house. The
evidence showed that il was the Gus
tom OF the Terrys and the Giffords and
few mutual friends 10 pass an even
ing now and then playing penny-ante
sometimes something little speed
!er. There was no "biddy" and not
even a white one every pot for
drinks" 1t also developed that the
prosecutor himself furnished the cards
and chips.
Taking all these things into consider
atioE the alderman. who had once read
an article on the game. decided that
the National as played at Terry's
was not gambling but merely family
party engaged in q patriotic pastime.
The case was dismissed.
