LEMOORE CAL. Sept. 26.-To the San
Francisco Call: Will you allow me space
in your paper TO reply to some of the
various comments which my letter to the
Christian Register has called forth fIom
the California press?
That letter was denominational one,
written to denominatonal pa per for the
purpose of arousing the interest of East
ern Unitarians in work which L consider
especially their own. Before Hanford,
Fresno, Tulare and many other San
Joaquin towns were ever heard OF and
even when part of what is now Stockton
was swamp l was resident OF Califor-
mia.
Almost my entire life has been spent in
this State, and California's fame and good
name are my own. l have spoken at
every Unitarian conference Tor three
years previous to this year, telling the
same facts in q more extended way than
l told them in the letter quoted. and re-
porters from all the large San Francisco
dailies sat by and did not even mention
the matter. The bright side of California

the testimony given at the inquest by
Mrs. Tate, pistol that she had hidden

the floor in such a position that when
it was discharged the bullet flew
straight to the brides neck, striking
near the clavicle bone, and lodging un.
der the shoulder blade. The distorted
features of bis wife attracted Williams
to her, and calling him darling" she
died in his arms.

tiful young woman not yet twenty
wears old. Both she and her husband
were members of good families and
very popular. The young man Is In a

HER TREssEs WOUND IN CoGs.-Miss
Victoria Wright, of Chester, Pa, had 9
thrilling experience on Saturday, and
that she was not crushed to death is
due TO the prompt help she received
Miss Wright is employed at Trainer
No. mill, and while passing between
two machines in the spinning room, hel
long hair, which was hanging down
her back, was drawn by the suction
from the whirring machinery into the
cog wheels.
As she felt her head being drawn
back into the cog wheels she struggled
madly to release the grip of the cogs on
her hair. The other employees were
husy, and did not see the peril of the
young woman, but when scream arose
above the hum of the machinery they
rushed to her aid.
Miss Wright's head was now but q
few iuches from the cleaning cogs, aud
each instant it was drawn closer. A
piece was torn out Of her dress, and the
t.mid ones surrounding the girl grew
sick and turned away; but in the nick
of time the machinery was stopped,
and Miss Wright released.
A doctor was summoned, as she ap-
pc .red to be badly injured, aud he
found her scalp had been lscerated,
three ribs broken and long cash cut
in her back. She also appeared to be
injured internally.

TRAIN THIEVES CONVICTED.

The most remarkable Car robbery
case on record in the South came to an
end at Dalton, Ga, on Saturday, in the
Superior Court, Judge Alonzo Fite pre-
siding. During the past three weeks
eighteen robbers, charged with system
atically looting cars on the Southern
r .ilway, extending for period OF Eve
years, have been tried and found guilty.
The ringleader, Walter BohannoD, was
convicted in five cases, and was on Sat
urday sentenced by the court to len
years in the penitentiary. His gang,
Tom Kinneman, Ben Pearce, Sam
Painter, Lutte White, Bill Long and Ed
Morris, the latter colored, received sem
teuces from one to three years. Jim
harris, the member of the gang who
turaed states evidence and gave his pals
away was not sentenced, and it is prob.
able that under the recommendation of
the superintendent of the Southern
Railway he will be released, or his
sentence will be very light. The mer
chants convicted of receiving stolen
goods from the robbers are as follows {:

Bender, Anderson Giddens, Clee Com.
ice, G. w. Horan. w. B. McCarson, ].
Kirke Farrar, Ed. Roberts and Jesse

fenced all these merchants to pay fines.
ranging according to their ability to
pay, from 81 900 down TO S25, and one
year on the chain gang, the latter sen
tence to be suspended on payment of
tiues and costs. Ga account of the rob
berries of which these suits were the
result, the Southern Railway claims TO
have paid damages TO consigners
amounting to $4,000 during the FIVE
years the gang were making their dep
relations.
