Diet For Neryons Persons.

Mrs. Rorer, in a diet suggested for
nervous persons, does not veto coffee
altogether. Once a day, at break
fast, without sugar, it appears in
the list. White bread dried out in
the oven and lean roast beef, steak
or broiled chops three times a day
are permitted. Fruit she advises ia
be used sparingly and never in the
latter part of the day. The surprises
in the list are that coffee should be
allowed at all, that meat should be
provided in abundance and fruit
sparingly. Finally plenty of green
salad, with all the salad oil, in d
French dressing made with lemon,
that can be taken. Fat around the
nerves, she says, smooths them out

PIONEER DRUGGIST
One of Los Angeles Oldest Citizens
Dies in San Francisco

Theodore Wollweber, the pioneer drug
gist of this city, died at his home in San
Francisco on the 18th inst He was a
native of Germany and came to this
city in 1862. A few years later he opened
a drug store on Main street north OF the
Downey block, where he soon built UP a
large business by his honest methods
and sterling worth.
He remained in business at the Main
street store for about eight years. Dur
ing that time the city had been growing
southwark at a rapid rate. Realizing
this fact Mr.. Wollweber decided to move
his business where he could better meet
the demands of the people. In 1870 he
purchased the property on the southeast
corner of Third and Broadway, on which
the Bradbury and Currier buildings now
stand, for something like $4,000. On the
property he erected a two-story block
and until 1889 carried on one Of the larg-
est drug businesses in the city.
In 1889 he sold to Mr.. Bradbury the
Broadway frontage for $4,000 and a
small part of the Third street frontage
for $4,000 Two years later he left fol
San Francisco, where he has resided fol
the past six years. He leaves widow
and adopted daughter, Mrs. Clara w
Scott. His estate is valued at $4,000.

BELOW THE BELT
Law Hath No Terrors for a Frantic
Horse

An excellent illustration Of the
dangers of the streets as caused by the
"twenty-minute hitching ordinance"
was afforded the passers-by on North
Spring street, between First and Tenn
pie, about 1890 yesterday afternoon. A
horse and wagon owned by Joseph
Benkert, who runs a meat market at SIS
Also street, was hitched to the curb
by means of an ordinary twenty-pound
weight, Immediately behind a light
spring wagon, owned by John Ness Of
Cahuenga valley. A careless driver
passing along the street at good pace,
caught the left hind wheel Of Benkert's
rig with the front wheel Of the wagon
he was driving.
Benkert's horse which Is at the best of
times somewhat scary, saw good op-
portunity to obtain a moderate slice of
notorlety. and proceeded to take ad-
vantage Of his position. The first.thing
to do was to take the wheel off Mr..
Ness rig which he accomplished neat
ly and with dispatch. He then made
frantic efforts to put his forefeet
through the unfortunate mans hat, but
with no avail. He managed, however,
to kick a harmless policeman in the
belt, whereat he became jubilant and
started toward First street. presumably
with the object in view Of bestowing

OPPOSED TO ANNEXATION
Board Of Trade Sends Strong Resolu-
lions to the President

The following resolutions. expressive
Of the opinion Of the board of directors
of the board Of trade upon the annexa-
ton question. have been sent to Presi-
dent Mckinley and the California sena-
tors and representatives:
Resolved. That in the judgment of the
board Of directors of the Los Angeles
board Of trade the annexation Of the
Hawaiian islands to the United States
would be detrimental to the best inter-
ests Of this country. The principal argu
ments in favor Of annexation are fanci-
full, and based upon the possibility that
future events will make the possession
Of the islands desirable. The dangers Of
annexation are present, easily per-
ceived and affect the commercial, social,
moral and political interests of our cUln
try. We believe that no other foreign
power should be permitted to annex the
islands, but do not believe that this ar
CUES anything in favor Of their annexa-
ton by these United States.
Resolved, That the upbuilding of the
varied Industries Of our own country de-
serve and demand the fullest considera-
ton. To fail in this regard would'be to
withhold from the citizens of our re-
public that to which they are Justly en-
titled. To this end the existing reci-
procity treaty with the Hawaiian islands
should be Immediately repealed and the
proposition of annexation declined.
Resolved, That copies of these resolu-
tons be sent to the president of the
United States and to our senators and
representatives at Washington.

Sentenced to Five Years

OLIVER IS HELD TO ANSWER
A MAIL CARRIER SUES COUNTY
NEwLIN FOR $1.7o
Compton Ranchers Have a Lively
Quarrel-Suit on Life Insur-
ance Policy-New Suits

A. e. Davis, convicted of forgery, was
yesterday denied a new trial by Superior
Judge Smith and sentenced to imprls-
onmert in the San Quentin penitentiary
for the term Of five years.
Attorney divers motion for a new
trial was based upon an affidavit by him
self in which, among other allegations,
II was stated that the jury was preju-
diced against the defendant during the
progress of the trial and before its con-
clusion by reading certain sensational
articles in the daily papers, relating to
the Compton case, the arrest of Nichol-
son for attempted jury bribery and the
dismissal of Juror Mcintyre from the
panel as well as by conversations on the
same topics with acquaintance.
Some Of the arguments of Attorney
Oliver aimed to show that the evidence
at the trial did not sustain the verdict
Of the jury, nor that Compton and the
defendant were acquainted.
The court brushed aside counsers
points. He did not think that 1t was
absolutely necessary that two conspi-
rators should be personally acquainted
In order to enter into a conspiracy to
defraud. He was convinced that In this
case the conspiracy had existed He
would deny the motion for new trial.
In sentencing Davis the judge shortly
reviewed the crime. which consisted In
the forgery of deed by means Of which
$1,000 was obtained on mortgage from
the Columbia Savings bank. After re-
verting to Davis two trials, the first one
of which had resulted in hung jury and
the second in conviction, the court said:
II don't think. Mr. Davis, that you de-
serve as much punishment as the others.
But you knew all about the business and
were willing to share in the proceeds of
the crime. You thought that there was
no danger to yourself because you were
not the actual forger. That is where yon
made your mistake. It has been shown
that your character was excellent until
you fell in with bad company. 1 arm
sorry for you. The sentence OF this court
is that you be confined in the state
prison at San Quentin for five years
Attorney Oliver stated that the case
will be appealed to the supreme court.

WOULDN'T WORK
divers Ingenious Trick Cannot Save
Him From the open"

H. S. Oliver, who burglariZed a Santa
Monica school house four months ago
and carried off coal and a garden hose,
was examined yesterday at Santa Mon
lea and held to answer in the sum OF
$4,000. When first arrested he ran away
from the officer, but was recaptured and
placed in the town Jail. Oliver was re-
sourceful. however, and by prying off
a beard from the calaboose wall again
escaped. To ward off suspicion he got
his brother to write to Justice Tanner
that II. S. had disappeared and that his
wife was so convinced she would never
see him again that she had set to house
keeping with man named Butler.
Oliver and Butler. though. were the
eame person. the only difference being
that there were more vhiskers, dyed an
intense black. on Butler than there had
been on Oliver When Deputy Sheriffs
White and Woodward caught the burg
lar crouching behind bedstsad few
DAYS ago in the Dogtown dwelling house
which he occupied. together With his
brother, he exclaimed that he was not
the man they wanted and that his name
was Butler. Oliver is an ex-convict.
