OBITUARY..

EDITOR BULLETIN,-It is not that
| feel that John I. Low was honored
by having me as his friend, but
that l was blessed by sharing in
such a friendship as his. He was
so noble, so generous, his friendship
or charity will extend beyond the
grave into the boundless realms of
eternity. l consider that few men
were blessed as | was in the posses
sion Of such friend. He, it is true,
was everybody's friend, but I have
labored under delusion if l did not
occupy an exalted position III his
affections. l wish it was possible for
me to express my love for him fully,
but my ability is not equal to the
occasion. He passed peacefully
away Monday morning, Feb. 22d,
at his home near Salisbury, Tenn,
surrounded by friends and loved
ones.
The long watches of the night are
over. and he is gone; gone from his
earthly home; gone to live with the
dear ones over yonder" and with
the angels. He was happiest when
surrounded with his family and
friends, but death called and he went
away willingly. Part of his family
had long since gone over, and were
waiting and watching" for him,
and when the messenger came he was
ready to go. The night was dark
and stormy without, but within
there was a holy quiet, only dis
turbed by the heavy breathing of
dying brother and the sobs of weep
ing friends and family. We had
watched and waited at his side for
many long days and nights. We
hoped and prayed that death might
stay his hand and leave him with
us but day after day he seemed to
care less for things of earth and more
for those of heaven. We patiently
watched and prayed as the many
days and nights wore on, but the
trial >hour came at last, and we
assembled around his bed to see him
pass away. AS he went out across
the dark river these lines passed in
my mind
Sc Soon shall we meet again
Meet meier to sever;
Soon will peace wreath her chain
Round us forever"

DEFIES a PASADENA JUDGE.
Aged. Mrs. livingstone in. Contempt of
Court for Refusing 10 Support
Nor Buehood

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Feb. 15.-The
tribulations OF the a.ed Livingstones OF
Pasadena seem to be increasing rather
than diminishing.
These troubles had their origin. so far
as the general public is in formed in an
attempt 10 have old S. ". Livingstone
sent TO an insane asylum. Later came
divorce suit, ;hen suit brought
by the husband for maintenance,
and a decision was rendered in his
favor BY Superior Judge Alien, who con-
sidered that the woes of the old people
were largely due 10 Mrs. Elizabeth Wheel
er, Mrs. Mary a. Livingstone's daughter
by former marriage.
To-day the case took a new turn with
the filing OF affidavits in Judge Allan S
court and citation OF Mrs. Livingstone
TO show cause why she should not be
punished for contempt OF court.
The Livingstones have a comfortable
home at Pasadena, but 1t has proved
bone of conten tion 10 the OLD couple who
had lived happily together for many years
until Mrs. Wheeler came TO live with the u.
When the old man brought suit for sepa-
rate main tenance last fall J udge Mckinley
was on the bench and issued restraining
! order forbidding Mrs. Livingstone's dis
posing OF the community property, which
consists o! lOtS IN HaSaOena, until The
further order of the court. Later Judge
Allen ordered Mrs, Livingstone 10 pay
her aged u-band $24 per month, the first
payment 10 be made on February g.
In the atfidayits hled this afternoon the
husband says that the payment ordered
by the court has not been made. He
states that he has no money ana Is receiv-
ing support from the peopie.of Pasadena,
who give him small sums to keep him
from starving.
But the most serious allegation made by
Mr.. Living stone is that his wife has dis
obeyed the order OF the court command
ing her not to dispose of The
properly. He alleges that on Feb
ruary l. after the order directing her
to pay her husband for the necessaries OF
life in his old and helpless condition, she
decided the prop,riy covered by the re-
stralning order TO her daughter, Mrs.
EliZaDeth Wheeler, and the deed was
placed on record in the Recorders office
Ii is ior that the citation referred to has
been issued, and Mrs. Livingstone aud
her daughter will have TO explain their
proceedings to Judge Allen.

GRADERS START
FROM FRESNO
Work Begun On the Valley
Road Extension to
Hanford.
Four Camps to Be Established
and Construction Of the
Line Hastened.
Difficulties Encountered in Clearing
ihs Rights If Way Through
Vineyards.

FRESNO, CAL, February 15.-Grading
on the Valley road soIth of this city was
begun to-day by Grant Bros, who have
the contract between Fresno and Han
lord. In the morning camp of about
fifty men was established at the new
winery two and a half miles south of the
city, on the Southern Pacific line. BY
noon the scraping outfits had been got
together, and after dinner the work OF
grading commenced.
From East avenue the new road runs
alongside of the Southern Pacific for three
miles. The scrapers began operations on
q sandbank opposite the winery and will
probably have the cut finished tomorrow.
A force OF men with shovels and axes be-
gan clearing the ri6ht-of-way toward the
city of weeds and vines. These men will
be followed by the scrapers. The road
bed will be constructed toward this city
first. to the point just this side of Balls
vineyard, to which the track has already
been laid. Then the grading will proceed
south OF the cam p.
The work of clearing the right of way
from Balls place to the camp will cost as
much as the grading. For almost the en-
tire distance the land is planted to vines.
and these will have TO be grabbed out.
Through the colonies also considerable
add dtional work Will be entailed on this
account. The scraping from Balls win e.
yard to the camp will not amount TO
much as the grade OF the track is almost
level with the land. Where the Valley
road runs parallel with the Southern Pa
cifc The grades of the two tracks are the
same.
Grant Bros. intend 10 have four camps
OF graders at various points along the line
from Fresno to Hanfo d. The other three
will be established b. Wednesday even
ing. Each Will have about fifty men.
Abous 500 persons from this city walked
out 10 the camp yesterday and applied for
work. They were turned away, as the
foreman had as many men as he needed.
During the last few days there has been
an influx OF laborers occasioned by the re-
port that grading was TO be resumed.

KlNGMAN, ARIZ., Feb. 15.-After hav-
ing one OF the robbers who assisted in the
Santa Fe train hold-up of last Tuesday
within its grasp the posse in his pursuit
was cleverly outwitted and permitted the
captive to escape. Sherlffs Cameron and
Ruffner followed the trail to the Grand
Canyon of the Colorado. When close
upon their man this morning the
Sherlffs sent one man ahead with
Indian trailers while they rested. The
trailers found the Iobber asleep by
his fire, and covering him with their rifles
they captured him. The white man with
the trailers was Rogers. He told the In
dians to gather wood to make coffee and
TO stack their weapons.
While the Indians were gathering wood
the robber jumped for their rifles, broke
one over log, threw one into the river
and kept two others with all the ammuni-
tion. Then he ordered the Indians to
git" which they lost no time in doing.
1t is supposed Rogers stood in with the
robber, ss he is q cowboy of unsavory
fame.
The whole posse then abandoned the
chase and returned 10 the railroad.
Sheriff Potts of Mojave County left the
false trail of the fugitive, south of the
railroad. and camped at Milk Springs in
the Music Mountains. about twenty miles
from where the bandit was last seen.
Under Sheriff Smith, at Kingman, sent
a courier to him this morning, and the
party again took up the trail of the fugi-
tive. Sheriff Potts and posse are deter
mined and brave men, who will take the
man or kill him if he is found.
