JUDsoN's JAG.
It Got Him Into Tight Place, but
He Didn't Mind 1t.

AS the train from the southern part
Of the State was on it's way up the Sac
ramento Valley on Monday evening 1t
came in collision with a horse and
wagon, piloted by man named Judson,
a short distance this side of Elk Grove.
1t seems that Judson was on his way
home from the village, and was about
three sheets in the wind" to use a
nautical phrase. The road he was trav-
cling crosses the railroad at the point re-
ferred to, and he reached there just as
the train approached. The shades of
night were falling fast, and an ordinar-
lily prudent person would have pulled up
and not attempted to dispute the right of
way with the rushing train.
But not SO Mr.. Judson. He was in that
frame of mind that often makes men
reckless and Indifferent to danger. Jud-
son was also happy-or seemed to be
for as the train neared the point of
junction with the county road the en-
gineer distinctly heard the occupant of
the wagon singing 'There'll be a Hot
Time in the Old Town Tonight"
The next instant there was a crash.
The horse went flying in one direction,
the man in another, and the air was
hlled with the debris of the wagon.
The train was stopped a few hundred
yards farther on and backed up to re-
ceive the remains of the reckless man
who had occupied the wagon. Judson
was found sitting UP against a fence
several yards from the track, and as the
trainmen reached him he was singing
the last words of the song that was on
his lips when the collision occurred.
"A hot time, hot time in the old town
tonight
He had no idea what had struck him
and furthermore he didn't care.

senger. wounded on the head; invalid
woman riding in the baggage car, in
jured internally.
The derailed train is known as Pa
cific Express No. 2. and is the west
bound overland. Two great engines
draw the train over the mountains, and
it is supposed either that the front en-
CINE broke an axle or else that the
rails Of the track spread. The for
ward engine turned down over the
low embankment The second locomo-
tive followed the leader off the track,
but fortunately remained on the road
bed. The train had just a minute be-
fore crossed the trestle bridge across a
long ravine ninety feet high, and Cape
Horn, a rocky promontory in the noun
tains, 13O feet above the American Riv-
er, was left only one-fourth' of a mile
behind
Engineer C. C. Brown and fireman
Edward Lightner were on the leading
engine and went down with it. Brown
was badly cut and hurt, but was after
wards able to walk. Lightner, how
ever, was pinned beneath the engine,
and at midnight the wrecking crew
from Sacramento had been unable to
remove his body from beneath the mass
of debris.
Don z. Hackett and fireman c. +.
Brown We're on the second engine, and
neither had a chance to jump. Engin-
eer Hackett was badly scalded about
the head and face and injured inter-
nally, dying two hours later.
None of the passengers were injured
except an invalid woman, who was be-
ing taken from Truckee to the Nevada
County Hospital. She was lying upon
a cot in the baggage car, and was in
jured by the partial telescoping of the
car. Mail Clerk A. H. Stevens was
thrown against the end of the car and
his back injured, besides sustaining in
ternal injuries. His condition is Sc
rious.
When the accident first occurred
one end of the mail ear caught fire,
but a few buckets of water soon extin-
guished the blaze. Both engines are
a shapeless mass of iron and steel, the
boilers being only partly intact. The
mail car also was ground to pieces. Tsle
baggage cars were telescoped by the
day coaches Immediately following.
All trains will be delayed at least
twelve hours.

TELLER'S BOND RESOLUTION.
FAVORABLE REPORT BY SEN
ATE COMMITTEES.
Declares for the Payment Of Ma
tional Bonds in Silver Dollars
as Well as Gold.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 1S.-The Senate
COMMITTEES on Finance voted to-day TO
report the Teller resolution, declaring
FOR payment OF the national bonds in
silver dollars as well as gold. The
vote stood S to 5.
The resolution is practically the same
as the Stanley Matthews resolution
adopted some years ago.
Those voting for the resolution were
Vest, Jones of Arkansas. White, Walth-
all, Turpie and Daniel, Democrats;
Jones Of Nevada and Wolcott, Republi
cans.
Those against were: Morrill, Alli-
son, Aldrich, Platt of Connecticut and
Burrows,
Senator Jones of Nevada was not
present, but his vote was by his re-
quest recorded in favor of the resolu-
ton.
The vote in the Senate Committee on
Finance on the Teller resolution was
preceded by a discussion which was
generally participated in by the MEM
bers. The general tenor of the dis
cussion was on the same lines as that of
a week ago, the Republicans contend
ing that the resolution was useless,
and would be devoid of result, and the
Democrats and their allies taking the
opposite position. The Republicans
especially deprecated the consideration
of the financial question at the present
time, saying there was no effort and
likely to be none to pass general
financial resolution through the Senate
committing the country more definite
ly to the gold standard.
To this the Democrats replied by cit-
ing the efforts of Secretary Gage and
ex-Secretary Edmunds to have Con-
gress take up the question in way
which looked to placing the country
definitely upon a gold basis. They
contended that it was the evident pur-
pose of the Administration to secure
legislation in the interest of the single
standard, whenever opportunity offered
and avowed their purpose of securing
declaration in favor Of a double STAN
dard, such as was proposed in this res
olution, if possible to do so, in order to
show that there had been no change in
sentiment If, they said, the business
interests were to be injured by the
agitation of the financial question at
this time, the blame should be placed
upon the Republican administration,
and not upon themselves.
When some of the Republican Sena-
tors were reminded that they had vot-
ed for the resolution when presented by
Hon. Stanley Matthews twenty years
ago, they admitted such to be the fact
but said in explanation of their atti-
tude that conditions had changed.
Senator Wolcott did not vote with
his Republican friends, but heartily
supported the resolution, saying he
would vote for it every time it came

MISTAKEN IDENTITY.
Miss Hastings Of This City Ar
rested in San Jose.

A dispatch from San Jose says there
was a very angry young woman there
yesterday. Her name is Miss Hastings
and she lives in Sacramento. Because
of mistaken identity she was locked up
in Jail on Monday night, and on the
whole had very uncomfortable time.
1t appears that last week Jennie Tick
erell, a Santa Rosa girl, disappeared
and has not been heard of since Her
general appearance corresponded 10
that of Miss Hastings, and as the San
Jose police received a notice of her dis
appearance, naturally they thought
they We're OBTAINING the right girl.
Everything possible has been done TO
soothe the feelings of Miss Hastings,
but up to last accounts she was as an
CRY as ever

'it pains me deeply to hear you scott
Don't you know that there is a here

NO" replied the wicked one, IT don't

We'll, then, let me endeavor to con-
vince you that there is a future ex-
istence when all the mistakes commit
ted in this life will have to be account
ed for You don't know what a COM
fort it will be to you if you can get
this belief thoroughly established in
your mind. Think Of again meeting
those who have gone before; Of
Say, hold on! Stop right there! The
idea of meeting those who have gone
before is the very thing that makes
me most anxious to keep the belief in
a future existence from taking hold
Of me- If there's to be any meeting on

If a person is induced to part with his
property by reason of fraudulent pre-
lenses and Misrepresentation, he is
thereby defrauded of the property so
so parted with even though he may
eventually make himself whole in some
mode not then contemplated. 1t IS not
necessary to show that the property
has been absolutely lost to him in order
to sustain a charge Of false pretenses
against the other party He is de-
frauded of his property when he is in
duced to part with it by reason of the
false and fraudulent pretenses and
representations, and the offense is COM
plete when by means Of such false pre-
lenses the fraud thereby intended is
consummated by obtaining possession
of the property sought.
