Whereas, 1t is advisable that a re-
prieve should be granted until after the
determination by the Supreme Court OF
the United States, of the proceedings
therein pending in relation to the said ).

of having the defendant again brought
before the court for the purpose OF haV-
ing an order made for his execution at
a specified time. and upon the advice OF
the Attorney-G General of the State OF
California, the Hon. w. F. Fitzgerald,
I do hereby reprieve the sentence or
the said S. D. Worden to and until the

A JURY MUST DECIDE.
Judge Hart Dismisses Oscar Hen.
Iey's Writ of Habeas Corpus.

Judge Hart yesterday declined to re-
lease Oscar Henley, who was before
him on a writ of habeas corpus.
Henley is the youth who is charged
with manslaughter for, as is alleged,
causing the death Of an old man named
John Scott at Fourth and l. streets
several weeks ago. His attorneys.
Charles T.. Jones and William Henley,
contended that the character of the
wound that caused Scotts death was
not such as to warrant the belief that
it came from blow with any deadly
weapon. Scott was up and about the
next day. The physician who made
the autopsy had testified that the in
jury could have come from Scott's head
striking the sidewalk in falling
Judge Hart, in dismissing the writ,
remarked that even if there was no
generalization on Henley's part to in
jure the deceased, If the fatal fall was
the result of a shove or light blow,
Henley was, in law, responsible for the
consequences of his act. At all events,
it was a proper case for a jury to con-
slider and determine He therefore re-

A VERY UNHAPPY COUPLE.
CHARLES STATESMAN AND HIS
WIFE IN COURT.
Assisted by Relatives, Friends and
Neighb bors, They Relate
Their Troubles.

The domestic troubles of Charles
Startsn.an and his wife had very
thorough airing in Justice Henry's
court yesterday. Mrs. Startsman had
been charged with deserting her chill
dren, and her case was up for trial.
There was a mass of stuff sworn to
by the husband and wife and their rel
atives. friends and neighbors, but the
main story can be told in few words.
Startsman told of the visits to his
house Of a Mrs. Kane, who he said had
ACQUIRED such an influence over his
wife as to make her dissatisfied with
her home. He repeated the story of
his wife going. to the theater one even
ing and coming home in a hack after
| O'Clock in the morning accompanied
by some man. Last week, after a visit
from Mrs. Kane, she announced her
purpose of leaving home, and she did
leave.
Startsman said they had had a few
slight differences during the twelve
years they were married. but nothing
serious His wife had been Industrious
and helped support the family by TAX
ing in washing. But lately she became
dissatisfied and dfscontented He said
he pleaded with her not to leave her
children, but she declared she would,
and that he must care for them.
The mother of Mr.. Startsman testi-
fed 10 having begged Mrs. Startsman
not to leave her home, but could make
no impression on her. She had never
known her son to abuse his wife.
Mrs. Startsman told different story
from that of her husband. She said
he had abused her off and on ever since
they were married She denied that
any man accompanied her home in a
| hack ore night, but would not deny
that she might have admitted it to
Officer Healy. She said her husband
was jealous of her. and instead of she
voluntarily leaving her children last
Thursday the fact was that he drove
her away under threats of violence
Quite a breeze occurred between Mrs.
Startsman's attorney Elwood Bruner,
and District Attorney Ryan when the
latter sought TO get Mrs Startsman to
tell where she had stayed since she left
home After a heated argument over
the point, Judge Henry told Mrs.
Startsman she must answer.
Finally she said she slept on Thurs
day night in the barn on the lot where
they lived, and afterward in other
barns Against the objection of Mr..
Bruner, the District Attorney insisted
on knowing in what barns she had
passed the night since last Friday.
She replied that was her secret, and
despite the insistence of the court she
would not tell
There was a great deal more testified
to, but these are the main points
brought out. While the case was on
trial the three boys remained by their
father, but the 3-year-old girl toddled
back and forth between her parents.
1t was a sad sight at best.
Judge Henry took the matter under
advisement until to-day.

Two Thugs Raid a Cabin on the
Herzog Ranch.

Yesterday a Chinaman who conducts
a vegetable garden south of street re-
ported that about half-past O'Clock on
Tuesday evening two men invaded ms
cabin and robbed him.
The Chinaman lives on the Herzog
place down there. His story is that
the two men, one of whom was quite
tall, entered his cabin and overpoW-
cred him before he was able to obtain
such a description of them as would
enable him to identify either of them
They seized him and pulled a bag
down over his head and arms, render
ing him powerless to do anything. Then
they broke open his trunk, plundered
it, and took several other things from
the cabin.
One of the robbers was either a ne
gro or had blackened his face and
hands for the occasion.

Wellington for her loss of the mill. It

appreciate Mr.. Shelly's labors in your
behalf, we do not doubt, but good way
to prove that your sympathy is of the
right sort, is for you to dive down deep
into your pockets to draw forth the
mighty dollar and help him start again..
There is nothing helps like substantial
sympathy. And if any Of these have
not paid their subscription to the
