ALLEGED FRAUD.
Joseph JOerger Seeks to Have Mort
gage Cancelled.

Joseph Joerger, by his attorneys,
Alexander Miller & Gardner, has filed a
complaint against Carl Windmuller, his
wife, L. D. Windmuller and H. II. Wind
muller, in which he alleges that in
March, 1883, he lent Carl Windmuller
and wife $4,000 on a mortgage on GER
tain lands, and in September 1899,
1000 on other lands.
Failing to pay the principal or. in
terest according to the terms of the
notes, the latter fell due, and plaintiff
states that a deed was given to him in
satisfaction of his claim; that Wind
muller and wife, with intention to de-
fraud him, purposely withheld from
him the fact that the same had been
mortgaged to L. D. and H. H. Wind
muller.
Therefore the plaintiff asks the court
to make an order canceling the mort
gage of the property made in favor of
said L. D. Windmuller and H. H. Wind
muller, and for such other and further
relief as pertains to equity.

WEATHER AND CROPS.
Severe Injury Was Done the Past
Week bV Frost.

The following synopsis of the weather
and crop conditions during the week
ending Monday, April Goth, is issued by
the State Agricultural Society, in CO.
operation with the United States Gil
mate and Crop Service, James A. Bar
wick Section Director:
The average temperature for the
week ending April Goth was as follows
for the Weather Bureau stations
named: Eureka 46, Fresno 80, Los An
geles 81, Red Bluff 49, Sacramento 81,
San Francisco so and San Diego 81 de-
grees.
AS compared with the normal tenn
peratures, there were large heat de-
f1ciencies shown at all points, as fol-
lows: Eureka 4, Fresno II, Los Angeles
8, Red Bluff II, Sacramento 8, San
Francisco and San Diego degrees.
The very large heat deficiency, ac-
companied by frosts in all portions of
the State, has acted very detrimental to
all crops, by retarding the growth of
grain and hay and by injuring a vast
amount of fruit. The damage in some
places is total, while others only report
the damage equal to a proper thinning
Of the various fruits. There is GER
tainty that the fruit crop has been very
greatly lessened by the frosts of the
past week. The lowest temperature re-
ported was at Jolon, Monterey County,
where it was reported to have fallen to
26 degrees, which is six degrees below
the freezing point Considerable ice
was formed.
Some of the raisin grapes were totally
destroyed by the severe frosts Many
vineyards were saved by the timely
warnings sent out by Forecast Officer
Harmon from San Francisco, where
the vineyardists resorted to smudging
to save and protect their vineyards.
The high, drying winds in the San
Joaquin Valley and in Southern Cali
fornia have sucked the moisture from
the ground. thereby injuring the grain
and hay prospects.
Taking the week altogether, it's lack
of heat and moisture over what is
usually received at this season of the
year, has made the climatic conditions
on the growing crops very severe
If more favorable weather is expert
enced the coming week, it will no doubt
bring along the crops Of all kinds to
that extent that it will be a surprise
even to native son Of the Golden West,
and wonderment In the eyes Of visit
ors from the East.

A FIVE MILLION FORTUNE.
Said to be Now Awaiting the Heirs Of
Teresa TietenS.
It So. the Sacramento Nieces and
Nephews Should Come in for
the Most of It.

1t is possible the sons and daughters
OF Peter Tietjens, who died here in
April, 1898, may get a big slice Of the
immense fortune left by their aunt,
Teresa Tietjens, the famous singer, who
died in 1877, said to be valued at 3d.
100000.
A United Press dispatch from New
Brunswick, N. j., yesterday stated that
Henry Schroeder, a barber in South
River, a village near there, whose
mother was a first cousin of Teresa
Tietjens, is going to give up his bust
ness and go to Germany to claim the
entire estate He saw an advertise
ment in a German paper some time ago
calling for her heirs to come forward
and get the five millions. The dispatch
also says:
"Tietjens sang in this country in 1875,
she died in 1877. She left the greater
part Of her wealth to her nephew
tbrotherO Peter Tietjens, but the will
was contested, and the legal contro-
versy which followed dragged along
many years. Schroeder's mother was
q first cousin of the singer Having
gathered together what proofs he had,
he sent them to the attorney mentioned
IL the advertisement, and a few days
ago received word that his claim was
the best, and that it would be to his
advantage to come to Hamburg He is
about 5S years of age"
Peter Tietjens, the keeper of an inn
On the Riverside road for many years.
was Teresa Tietjens' brother. When he
died in 1898 he left two sons and two
daughters. Chauncey, one of the sons,
is now in jamaica, and one of the
daughters is the already famous Marie
Tietjens, who was a week ago filing an
enga cement at Hull, Eng. She went to
Europe few years ago, and after COM
pleting her musical education branched
out as an opera singer. She is regarded
by many critics as the equal of any
woman now on the operatic stage
If there is really a fortune of $5,000,-
600 awaiting the claims of Teresa Tiet-
jens' heirs, is is not very likely that q
son of her first cousin will get much of
it while her own nieces and nephews are
yet living.

Weather Report.

The Weather Bureau reports show the

The barometrical readings at a. m.

The highest and lowest temperatures
one year ago yesterday were so and 56

grees. The highest ever recorded on
the last ten days of April was 50 de-
grees, on the %, 1885, and the lowest 80

that cold weather in April, while rather
unusual, is not unprecedented in a rec

What Is the Best Thing for People To

We frequently hear people making the

mlider weather approaches and reailze
that their health needs attention But dlu
It ever occur to such people that thinning
the blood will only tend to make them

take something to increase their strength.
thousands of people have discovered
that thinning the blood is a mistake ana
nave derived more benefit from building
up their health and vitality in springtime.
Ihls fact Is clearly proved by the following
opinions of some reliable people,
Mr. h. B. Toale of 432 De Kalb avenue,
Brooklyn, recently said: Il formerly suf-
1ered great deal in the spring from weak
ness and nervous debility 1 tried many
remedies, but obtained no relief until l
began taking Duffys pure malt whisky.

WHISKY and keep up my health. BY taking

weary feeling l formerly experienced. 1t
is certainly the best thing / ever tried"
People who wish to build up their health
at this time of the year can see that
Duffys pure malt whisky is far superior
to all other spring medicines, because it is
strengthening, health-giving stimulant.
II is unequaled for purifying the blood,
qucken1ng the circulation, toning up the
