Or. White selected as his text the 18th
verse Of the 14th chapter of Luke.
"Come, for all things are now ready"
also Revelations. 22d chapter aud 18th
verse, "The spirit and the bride say
come" These people ali with one accord
made excuses when invited TO come to
the Saviour. Some one excuse and SOME
another, each to them sufficient, and the
sinner to day is making the same excuses
when asked to come to Christ. But an
excuse will not do; it is false; there is no
excuse to help you from coming to
Christ, and there is no sinner in.hell to-
day who is there for any other cause than
that he absolutely refused of his own ac-
cord to come to Christ and be saved.
He spoke OF the wondrous love Christ
had for sinners, and no matter how vile
they might be and how low they had
sunk in the eyes of the world, which sees
as through glass, darby, that you could
always turn and find that success for
which the soul ..yearns and Will not be
satisfied without. Continuing he said,
''You aro afraid you can't hold out. This
should not bother you; come to Christ
relying solely upon Him and He will see
YOU safely out and landed at home.
When must Gomez Now! Now is the
accepted time. Don't wait until am
through preaching, but'accept Christ now;
don't put it off until tomorrow, it may
be too late. Now is Gods time and if you
put it OF it may be said to you the same
as was said to those who were invited to
the supper, You are not worthy"
He then closed with an appeal to sim
ners to come to Christ and about twenty
or thirty responded to the call and came
forward.
After singing "Just as AM" the con-
gregation was dismissed by DR.. White. ~

The Valdez Case

Under other and more ordinary cir
cumstances the trial of Frank Valdez
for the murder of Lorden, the Gala
basas storekeeper, would not have pre-
sented many complications. The bad
blood that has been existing between
several of the parties concerned in the
case has. however, tangled things up
somewhat.
Constable Branscombe. who arrested
Valdez, has no use for Justice Richard
son, the township justice who sought
to have the boy brought before him, and
the latter returns the compliment by
having no earthly use for the constable.
To complete the, medley, the man who
was shot was not favorite and bore the
name of one who drank heavily and was
quarrelsome The main contention of
the defense, that Lorden was the aggres-
sor and that Valdez fired in self defense,
has not been shaken in any marked
degree and, indeed, some of the facts
brought out by the prosecution seemed
to corroborate it. But the nuner
confessions of Valdez cast an air of sus-
picion over the affair that otherwise 1t
would not have borne.

THE DIVORCE MILL
The Curiously Complicated Case of

in New Hampshire in October, 1865 and
have grown UP family of four chill
dren. the youngest of whom is IS. In
September, 1887, the defendant deserted
his wife and children for no specific

THE GARNIsHEE FAILS
The Court Gives Judgment in Com
plicated Suit

In the suit of w. T. Fenton, as assignee
Of Northrup, Braslau, Goodwin compa-
ny against Edwards & johnson and EN-
ma Won Windheim doing business unde.
the name of the Nebraska Seed compa-
ny, an opinion was handed down yester-
day by Judge York.
The suit was a rather curious one. and
was hotly contested some time ago. In
this case an assignment for the benefit
of the creditors was made in the state of
Illinois by the Northrup Braslau, Good
win company to William Fenton. A
Nebraska creditor of the corporation
the intervenor in the suit, attacked the
validity of the assignment on a gar
nishment of a debt due to said corpora
ton by defendants residing here, which
garnishment was made subsequent to
said assignment. 1.-The debt is not an
asset in this state" says the court. "lt
is due in no particular place. No intent
is shown to evade the laws of this state
by the transfer. There is no law of this
state that the transfer violates. The
debt, formerly due to said corporation,
was transferred to Fenton before the
garnishment. therefore was not due to
the corporation at the time of the gar
nishment. 1t therefore follows that Fen
ton, the plaintiff is entitled to judgment
for the amount of the claim, and d
judgment will be entered accordingly"

THERE'S MANY A SLIP
William Trip, Alias Baker, Back in
Jail

The taking of testimony in the case Of
the United States VS.. w. E. Tripp, alias
William Baker, occupied the morning
session yesterday in the United States
district court. Shortly after the after
noon session convened on motion of the
defendants attorney, the jury was in
structed to render a verdict of nc,
guilty. on the ground of the variance
between the proof and the allegations
of the indictment. The court then ad-
journed until today, and the defendant
with the rest, left the room and the build
ing.
But, in anticipation Of the sequel, Tom
followed Trip down the street, and
when he went into a store Botello step
ped into another near at hand and tele-
phoned to the office of Justice Young
at which place District Attorney Frank
Flint and Marshal Covarrubias were in
dustriously engaged, the former swear
ing out a new complaint against Trip
the latter with a warrant of arrest ready
to serve instantly the necessary formali-
ties had been gone through with.
Thus it was that before Tripp was
safely out of the frying pan of one tria.
he was into the preliminary fire of an
other, and for this reason:
The former indictment against him
charging him with using the mails with
fraudulent intent in selling school books
was made out in the name of William
r. Baker, alias Miles, This last COM
plant alleges the same charge, but is
made out in his real name, which, ii
has transpired, is William E. Tripp.
He expressed no surprise when the
marshal, in answer to Botellos tele-
phone message, pursued and arrested
him, and as he did not produce bail he
was sequestrated in Jail to await further
developments.

FLAT BROKE
The "Wildcat" Mine Didn't
Pan Out
THE TRIAL OF VALDEZ
W. TRIP HAS A BRIEF SPELL
OF LIBERTY
An Indian Agent Found Short in His
Accounts-The School Census-A
Complicated Divorce Suit

1t was an ancient gentleman who lived
whats in a name," and, inferentially
sought to convey the idea that no espec-
ial virtue lay in a name. Nowadays,
however, there seems to be more po-
tency in names, either for good or i'll, and
such case is now in the courts.
A trio of enterprising individuals went
into a mining speculation in the Big Te-
junga district and though the pros
poets were good they came to grief.
Perhaps such a thing might have been
expected, in light of the fact that the
three placer claims were named the
wild Cat" the Green Horn" and
wake Up jim" To buck against u
wild cat is more than the average man
can do successfully, and the same APP
plies also not unfrequently when daily
ing with so-called "greenhorn." The
reflection upon the prospectors' capa-
bilities conveyed by the name of the
third claim was sufficient in itself to
hoodoo the enterprise.
Pearl S. Young and Alex. Labschow
are plaintiffs in the suit just filed and
William Stephens is the defendant
Young sets forth that in, May of last
year he and his partner and j. L. Banks
became owners of the three mining
claims, but the month following Banks
sold out his interest to Stephens They
thereupon verbally entered into ar
agreement to operate the claims as
partners, and with that end in view pur-
chased machinery and supplies, the
three men putting in their labor as well
They worked from January to Febru-
ary 1 of this year, but failed to rake ir
any gold whatever. Their very limited
capital was exhausted and they were ir
debt for certain of their tools and SO they
just abandoned the whole outfit and
came back to the city.
The claims are undeveloped and so
it Is set forth, have no market value
They are in debt $3.50 for machinery
purchased, and Furthermore the part
nership owes Young individually $685.
and Stephens $14.90. With affairs in thi;
bad shape the court is asked to order the
partnership dissolveds that a receiver
be appointed and that after the property
has been sold and the debts paid tbs
money remaining be divided pro rata
Meantime the claims have been aban-
doned and the machinery is lying ex-
posed to the weather, and the depreda-
tions of other mining men in the dis
trict.

DECREE IN FORECLOSURE
In the United States Court Against
San Bernardino Property

An opinion was rendered in the circuit
court yesterday in the case of William
j. Broderick, receiver of the First Ma
tional bank of San Bernardino against
d. fitzpatrick and G. F. Ratsler Suit
was brought by complainant to fore
close mortgage on certain specified
properties and executed September "a,
1894, by defendant Fitzpatrick to the
bank.
Defendant Fitzpatrick made default.
but Ratsler answered, claiming some of
the property embraced in the mortgage.
The decree yesterday ordered that the
mortgage be foreclosed and property
sold to satisfy the claims of William J.
Broderick for the San Bernardino bank,
with the exception of that listed as the
Mentone Sandstone property, which is
claimed by Ratslee, and the claim was
sustained by the court
