GARROTERS ABOUT.
Two Hold-Ups Last Night, and the
Thugs Arrested.

Officers Maley. Taylor and Douglas
banded a pair of desperate thugs in the
City Jail last night. One gave his
name as F. ]. Riley, and the other
James Barnes.
The pair made two attempts to gar
rote and rob men ON Third street, near
j, during the evening The first man at
tackled was one Smith, a bootblack,
whom the thugs attempted to get
into the alley for the purpose of rob
bing him, but he managed to get away
from them
Shortly afterward Carl Anderson
came along, and the garroters went at
him in true professional style. They
came very near getting a handkerchief
Eied over Anderson's face, but he made
a desperate struggle and freed himself
from their grasp and escaped.
The matter was reported to the po-
lice, and at a late hour Officers Maley,
Taylor and Douglas found the men
whom Anderson described as his as
sailants. and arrested them. Both are
hard-looking specimens, and one claims
TO be a prize fighter.
One of the thugs had a big knife in
his coat pocket, and is was wide open
and ready for use.
There are a number Of toughs in the
city just now, and it wouldn't be q bad
idea for the police to have a few of
their old-time round-ups of loafers
They could fiji the old jail in one or
two hauls

I understood he was already on the
list, and l indorsed him personally. No
consideration whatever given for the
favor. l was asked by Iindley of Los
Angeles to indorse him.
j. Hooking, who was Temporary book
Keeper to the Sergeant Arms, and
has held the position permanently said
he lived in San Bernardino, where he
had been Deputy Sheriff. He was In
the same position as now at the last
session, and Parkinson wrote for him
no come UP, as he would be needed.
He resigned as Deputy Sheriff and
came. Asked if he brought a prisoner
over to San Quentin from san Bernar-
dino he replied yes, he did, as a coume-
sy to the Sheriff. Pressed to know If he
received compensation, he said he re
ceived $50, not as compensation, but
for travelling expenses for self and pr1s-
oner. Asked if he received mileage
also he said yes-the mileage was about
S114 Parkinson asked the committee
to allow it to him.
Hooking said he assisted Parkinson
to make out the list of twenty five
names attributed to Parkinson, and
took them to Ducl1worth and said Par
knsOn thought them necessary. Duck
worth said he could not do it. Duck
worth said, These new members are
jumping en- me like jack rabbits and
I've got to show them some courtesy
Questioned as to the presence and
duties of the twenty-five, Hooking told
of some who were occupied, but the
answer to the larger number was,
''Nell, [ seen him around; l don't know
what he was doing" He thought
twelve or fifteen of these men were in
the Sergeant -at-Arms' department.
Asked if he thought that number was
sufficient TO organize the Legislature,
he replied gravely, well, yes, enough
for the Sergeant-at-Arnls' rOom!'
Govan, State Janitor, was asked
about Measure, the electrician, who
was on the temporary list. His duties
were to turn on lights, etc, but En-
mons brought out the fact that as the
Speaker was elected the first day, and
the Assembly permanently organized,
Measures duties could not have begun
at all
C'hynoweth. attorney for the COM
mittee was sworn and said he did NOM
inate F. G. Smythe. Met Duckworth
and was introduced, and spoke about
Smythe. He said if the list was not
full he would put him on. ChynoWeth
voted against the mileage list. Smythe
worked more than a week.
1t was developed that no members
remembered to have sent anyone to
Duckworth after the House was per-
manently organized, and that nearly
all voted for the extra mileage. That
most of them had an impression they
might appoint or recommend at least
one name.

SHARP DECLINE IN SPOT AND
FUTURE WHEAT.
Barley Quiet and Weak at Lower
Prices Oats Easier, Moth
ing Doing.
San Fancisco, Jan.

San Fancisco, Jan. 29th.
Almost everything in the list has de-
clned. Flour, which has not experienced
a change in quite a long time, has been
marked down 15c per barrel, owing to the
sharp decline In Wheat. Wheat took a
long tumble to-day. both spot and futures
showing sharp declines; the spot market
is duh, but the speculative market IS
very active: among receipts to-day were
1l6.000 centaIs from Port Costa for export
part for South Africa and part for Eng
land. Barley is quiet and weak at lower
prices; options are also lower. oats are
easier in sympathy with wheat; a few
changes are noted; nothing doing; corn
is weak. dun and depressed, but not actu-
ally lower.
Butter is. IL anything, steadier; no
changes have occurred for a few days
past. Cheese is easy; some kinds are a
fraction lower. Eggs continue TO decline
ana still move very slowly; some selected
ranch bring 20c. Until the market has
touched bedrock trading Will probably
continue to be OF n hand to-mouth char
acter. Everybody is anxious to SELL and
as a consequence the market is forced
down

OH, NO, SHE DIDN'T PAINT.
But a Message From the Druggist
Did Sound Like it.

I'm just as angry as / can be-" said
the hostess, as she handed her guest a
cup of tea. "Oh, 1 don't know when
even my own husband has exasperated
me so,''
But what has he done now, dear?
You must always make allowances for
men, they"
1t isn't my husband this time: 1T
was only a companion. No; it was
Evelyn. She has just been here, and
really she was more trying than usual.
L do wonder why Mr.. Munniebaggs ever
married her.
Wei, he is rather near-sighted, any
how, you know, dear"
Yes, but still
And Evelyn was always celebrated
for keeping men at d distance But
what has she done?"
4 always thought they did that
themselves without any help from her.
Done? She never does anything; it's
always what she says. To-day she
was IN a great state of excitement. She
burst into the room crying: What do
you think people are saying about you
and me?"
And what did you say?"
Told her that l couldn't imagine
how people could ever say the same
thing about both of US"
oh, how you can think of things to
say on the spur of the moment! Now
l.
Yes. She said: 'Oh, it's perfectly
awful Such a base slander. Why,
they actually say that we both paint!'
Yes? And what was your reply?"
81 said: Never mind, dear; every
body knows that l never do such a
thing, and perhaps they will think it a
slander in your case, tooi"
''Oh, you clever thing! How did you
dare?"
Dare? I'd have dared anything just
then. l was 50 angry that [ felt my
self turn pale. l suppose she'd have
dome the same had it been possible.
The very idea. Why, never saw a bit
of paint in my life, except on someone
else's face, and"
Il beg your pardon, dear; but I think
your maid is trying to attract your at
tertion," said the visitor.
"Oh, dear, what is it, Christine? I
really cannot come over to the door
If it is about your evening out it is of
no use. [ really cannot spare you"
1T isn't that, ma am" said the girl,
demurely; 1T is only a message from
the druggist. He says he is all out of
the kind of rouge he usually sells you,
but perhaps you viii try this instead."

WyoMtNa, WISCONSIN, June 9th, 1890.
~ Ei}sian1s' Ned. Co., Schenectady, ". T.
Gentlemen Replying to your favor OF
recent date | called on Mrs. Jane Culver,
If Wyoming, Wis, yesterday. | had heard
much abopt her case before / went TO see
her. She has so long been regarded by her
family and all her neighbors as hopeless
invalid that her present state of health IS
nothing less than a marvel in this (Wyom
ing valley.
For more than a year past, and up to the
month of March last Mrs. Culver had lain
actually at the point of death. Her neigh
bors and friersls expected daily TO be called
upon to perform the "last sad Offices " for
her, and when they learned that she had
actually arisen from her bed and could . sit
up, " it vas felt that little less than resur-
rection had happened in their midst
Yet imagine the astonishment when .
week or two later it was announced in the
valley" that she could qeaik, and when
she was, at last, really able to meet and
shake hands with friends in the door, yard
or upon the street it was felt that truly a
mirsAle had been wrought in their midst.
l found Mrs. Culver, pleasant faced, at
tractive little woman, about her household
work when / called on June 9TH. She was
in fact, picking over gooseberries, and her
first remark after greeting was that in all her
ifty-eight years she could not recall so
early" season for fruit and garden stuff
as the present. She talked freely of her long
sad illness-the dreary track Of pain and
weakness over which for twenty years her
body had been racked, and told with evident
happiness of her wonderful cure. The truth
is" she said, g l was dead and am alive
again" And there was no lack ofenthusiasm
in her voice as she spoke of the sovereign
remedy which had wrought such wonder
work for her. She was surrounded by the
members of her family her husband daughter
and grandchildren, and Pink Pills was Ger
tainly the burden of their happy conversa-
tioH during my visit.
But her cure after all, is best summed up
in her own simple and succinct statement,
which she made in the hope of doing good
to others
Mrs. Culver is woman of education and
refinement. Her husband was postmaster
at Wyoming during President HarrIs0n's 3
administration. Among those of their
neighbors who can further attest the facts in
her case are the present postmaster and his
wife, Mr.. and Mrs. Richard Dunstan, Mr..
and Mrs c. w. Parks, Mr.. and Mrs. Solon
Kniekerbociser, and scores of others living
here in the town and valley of Wyoming.
P. ST must confess that had an idea
that patent medicine testimonials were mostly
fakes, manufactured in the good -humored
spirit of humbuggcry which delights the
world at large. In this case which have
looked up myself / have found at the first
trial cure so astonishing that / have been
afraid to write the facts Just as the actual
history of the case demanded I have been
