To Prevent Wrinkles.

Six or seven times each day shut
your eyes and leave the face motion
less for the space of five minutes.
Do not speak, nor even think, OF
anything. Short as the time OF
rest is, the face RECEIVERS in a most
marvellous manner from its tired
look, and the time when wrinkles
come is postponed.

TEN YEARS FOR CULLEN.
His First Conviction Was for Stealing
FarIey'S Potatoes.

Deputy Sheriff Deegan brought up a
prisoner from the Bay last night who
is destined to serve the State of Cali
fornia for a term of ten years. The
cOnvicts name is James Cullen. He
was found guilty of burglary in the
second degree in San Francisco, a prior
conviction of burglary having been
urged against him.
The first conviction was the theft of
thirty-eight sacks of potatoes, stolen
by Cullen and his pal man named
Carroll, from Stephen Farley, at
Twelfth and F streets in this city,
about four and half years ago. Chief
of Police John B. Rodgers and Detest-
i've "BilF' Ahern had quite an encoun-
ter with Cullen and two of his chums
at the time the arrests were made
This time Cullen changed his name to
Jackson. He is evidently a very cal
culating criminal, for when the prison
van arrived at the County Jail in San
Francisco, conveying the prisoner from
the Superior Court, where he had re-
ceived his sentence, it was found that
Cullen had in some way contrived to
loosen his handouts and was looking
for suitable opportunity to make a
dash for liberty, but the ever-vigilant
eye of Deputy Sheriff Deegan discover
ed the trick, and to Illustrate further
attempts, he placed an extra pair of
wristlets of the latest approved pat
tern upon the arms of Convict Cullen.

Coroner learned that several men were
standing near the track as the train ap-
preached, and when it neared the track
one of the number stepped to the cen
ter of the track and faced the engine.
The bell was rung and the whistle
blown, but the man stood stolid and
apparently Indifferent until struck by
the engine.
The engineer stated that there was
plenty of time for the man to have
stepped from the track and said he be-
lieved he was either drunk or deliber-
ately walked upon the track with the
intention of committing suicide.
The man was evidently a tramp, and
the Coroner was unable to find any
thing upon the remains by which he
might be identified An inquest will
