ASSERTS HE WAS CHEATED.
]. L. JOrdan'S Trade for L. P. Gilman'S
Stock.
He Asks the Court to Restrain Gilman
From Disposing of His
Notes.

L. R. Jordan has by his attorneys,
White & Seymour, begun an action
against l.. 2. Gilman to restrain him
from in any manner disposing of GER
tain promissory notes made by the
plaintiff in favor of Gilman
Jordan alleges that in April last he
purchased of Gilman the latter's hard
ware stock in the store at 512 J street
for $4,000. He gave Gilman two notes
one for $500, payable May Ii, 1897, and
the other for $500, payable in INSTALL
ments of $500 per month. The notes
were covered by a chattel mortgage
on a lot of cornice-making machines
and timers tools
Jordan further alleges that the value
of the stock and fixtures purchased of
Gilman was not worth more than 81
600; that Gilman knew he would not
have the opportunity and time for eX-
aiming and judging the value of the
stock, and would have to rely on his
(Gilman's) assurances as to the value
thereof; that Gilman falsely and fraud
ulently represented to plaintiff that the
stock, fixtures, etc, were worth S4,o0o
and upward, and exhibited to plaintiff
an inventory and appraisement thereof
in which the value and wholesale pur-
chase price was set down at SO, 100;
that the inventory was not complete,
and if so would show the value to be
$4,000 and upward.
Jordan alleges that the so-called in
ventory was false and fictitious, and
Gilman's representations regarding the
same were false and fraudulent and
do int of
him, whereby he was induced to make
the purchase.
Jordan states in his complaint that
he is informed and believes that Gill
man has no other property that is not
exempt from execution, and that If
he (Jordan) should be compelled to pay
the notes to innocent purchasers he
would be unable to collect from the
defendant, on execution, the amount of
damages suffered by him through the
transaction.
Plaintiff further alleges that on the
Sth of the present month he notified
Gilman that he rescinded the contract;
that he rendered to Gilman the posses
sion of the stock, and demanded that
the latter return to him the notes and
chattel mortgages, but that Gilman re-
fused and still refuses to do so.
Hence the suit to restrain Gilman
from diSpoSing of the notes.

NOW IT is POISON.
Won Arnold's Victim Says An At
tempt Was Made On Her Life.

Judging from the stories that fol-
lowed in the wake of the Won Arnold
outfit across the continent, and over
the Atlantic Ocean. and which are now
coming from Europe, there are apt to
be more startling sensations in the
near future.
Yesterday there was published a let
ter from the Young woman whim Won
Arnold married in Oakland under the
assumed name and title of Baron Won
Turkheim. 1t came from London and
stated that she had just become con-
WINGED of the perffdy that had been
practiced on her, and begged for money
to take her back to America.
Now comes another story from Lon
don stating that in an interview there
yesterday the woman made the follow
ing statement:
During the voyage there were re-
peated attempts to poison me with
laudanum. The bottle of laudanum
used against my life aboard ship was
purchased of the Joseph Hahn Com
pany, Sacramento, California"
The woman added that she intended
returning to San Francisco as soon as
possible, but in the same dispatch it is
stated that she and Won Arnold had
both suddenly departed from their
hotel.
The matter is certainly becoming in
teresting.

FOREIGN FRUIT PESTS.
Quarantine Officer Craw Destroys
Several New Varieties.

The State Board of Horticulture is in
receipt of a report from Alexander
Craw, Quarantine Officer at San Fran
CISCO in which he says that the steam
er Alameda which has just arrived
from Australia, brought considerable
stock in the plant line and two ship
ments of apples from Sydney. The fruit
was found to be infested with a species
of miner a new pest that tunnels
through the fruit instead of burrowing
into the core like the Goblin moth.
Quarantine papers were Immediately
served on the steamship company pro-
hibiting them from delivering the APP
pies. The board ordered them destroy
ed at once by fire, boxes and all, which
was done yesterday in a vacant lot
close to the steamer. Photographs OF
the new insect were made, showing its
hieroglyphic looking meanderings un
der the skin of the fruit, and specimens
We're preserved in alcohol, as there has
never been anything seen like it before,
and no account can be found recorded
of such a pest.
Several cherry trees were destroyed
on their arrival from Japan, infested
with a very small new scale (aspidiotus
albopunctatus). This is the first time
it has been found upon the cherry and
it attacks the orange as we'll as de-
ciduous trees,
The steamer City of Sydney, from
Central American ports, and the steam
er China, from the Orient, are now be-
ing overhauled for trees, fruits and
plants. and it is hard to foretell what
may be discovered upon them, as these
steamers invariably bring shipments of
trees, fruits and plants infested with
pests not before observed on this
coast
During the week several packages
have been received at this office for
identification. Among them came some
pear leaves from Winters, infected by
minute insect, the pear leaf blister
mite" (phytoptus pyrD. The best rem
edy for this insect is the treatment with
kerosene emulsion in winter. Liquid
remedies in the summer are of little
avail, and the application of dry sui
phur in the early morning while the
leaves are yet damp with dew has been
found TO be effective.

A Decision Affirmed.

George D. Cady, who was convicted
Of murder in Shasta County, appealed
to the Supreme Court, and yesterday
that tribunal upheld the judgment of
the lower court
Cady held that the court had per-
mitted the testimony of one Champion,
taken at the preliminary examination,
to be read in evidence by the prosecu-
ton, his contention being that under
the Constitution such testimony can
not be admitted, but the Supreme Court
found that no errors were committed

GET THE BEST.

Every live business man knows that cheap advertising is always the dear est. If you have something good to place before the public put it where it can be seen and give it some mag netic qualities. The same rule ap- plies to communities that have some thing good to sell or give away. Cheap pamphlets, misfit souvenirs and pri- vate puffs find their proper goal in the waste basket, but a piece of lit erature, like volume of the "Treas- ure Land" series, is read with inter est and priZed as standard work. It is handed around and placed on li- brary shelves, and does not lose it's value for years.
