SAN BERNARDINO, Feb. l7.-The
community was shocked to hear of the
death of that estimable lady, Mrs. Mar
shall, who departed this life on Monday
night at 9:45 o'clock. For some years
Mrs. Marshall has been troubled with
heart failure and on Thursday she re-
ceived the news of the death of her fa-
vorite brother in New York, and the
shock of that death hastened her own.
Friends fastened to console her and yes
terday she was feeling much better, but
at $50 physicians were summoned and
did every thing in their power to save
her, but at 9:45 death came and took
from this city one of it's most prominent
ladies. Mrs. Marshall has lived in San
Bernardino for seventeen years and was
a leader in church aid social doings. She
will be buried from ST. Johns Episco-
pal church on Thursday afternoon.

The Suprem. Court Decides the O'd Orange
Tree Case
RIVERSIDE, Feb ia San Fran
cisco dispatch says that a technical er-
ror on the part of the judge in overrul-
ing an objection prompted the supreme
court today to set aside the judgment
of $S965 against the Southern Pacific
company and order new trial of case.
In 1891 R. w. Pierce shipped two car
loads of orange trees from Apopka, Fla,
to Riverside. The Southern Pacific
hauled the cars from New Orleans, the
agreement being that the shortest route
to California should be utilized Ow-
ing to heavy rains on the Southern Pa
cific route the company shipped the
trees over the Central Pacific to Cotton
and thence to Riverside. While in
transit the trees were frozen and totally
destroyed. Suit was thereupon brought
at Los Angeles, and Pierce secured a
Judgment for $S965. The Southern Pa
cific company appealed from the judg
ment, claiming that the court had erred
in overruling certain objections. The
supreme court said I'VE think the
court erred in overruling the objection
of defendant to proof of the market val
ue of the trees at Riverside, instead of
confining the inquiry to cost or value
of the trees at the point of shipment
in Florida, as per contract which, with
the freight paid, was the true measure
of damages"
