FEATURES OF THE FIGEL TRIAL.

door taken from the telephone room, band.
 Under the examination of Judge Murphy the widow told of the rela- tions existing between herself and husband prior to and on the morning of June 1. Tn detail she related the parting with her husband on the morn ing of the shooting, and stated that he was in good health and that they were on the best of terms when they parted on the morning of June 1.
 By the statement of the witness 1t was learned that they had four chil- dren, to whom her husband had been devoted, and that the entire estate amounting to s100,000, had been left to herself and children. The witness was then submitted to the mercies of the ross-examiner, but the expectant lis- teners were doomed to disappointment, as no questions were asked by General Barnes for the defense, who stated that if he deemed it necessary he would recall the witness for the de- fense Then the heavily yelled widow left the courtroom without delay
 After Mrs. Hoffman's testimony had been heard all interest In the case dur ing the remainder of the day seemed to die out. People came and went and the defendant smiled. The next wit ness called was Henry M Harris, clerk in the employment of Hoffman, Rothchild &s Co. He testified that he had been acquainted with the deceased merchant for ten years, and that so far as he knew Hoffman had been practical and industrious, happy and contented. and that there was no mo- ticeable difference in his actions dur ing the day of June l.
 The witness said that he had left the store that evening at 5:55 o'clock and that the store was usually closed at 5:30, but that Isaac Hoffman had not left the establishment at the time of his departure for his home
 As has been the rule, nothing new was elicited from the witness further than the testimony given at the pre- liminary examination. It was asked by the defense if 1t was unusual for Theo- dore Ffgel to take books of the firm home with him in the evening, and the witness stated that it was not His examination was exceedingly short
 Harris gave way to Clarence NJ Post another clerk in the employ of the firm. who testified that the pistol with which Hoffman was killed was once in pos session of the defendant, and that a month prior to the death of Hoffman the pistol had been exhibited to the witness by Figel, and that he next saw the weapon when 1t was in the posses
The San Francisco call., 1898-02-09

The bullets found in the room and the revolver with which the deed was com mitted were shown to the jury, but the reading of the testimony previously given did not bring out any new points and 1t was asked by the defense what point was to be proved by the testi- mony, but they were left in ignorance. The testimony. in part relates to the pieces of the dead mans skull found on the bloody carpet and the paper which was presumed to have been un- der Hoffman's head before he had stag gered or been dragged into the adjoin- ing office.
 Officer Burr Love, Dr. J. F. Kearney of the City Receiving Hospital and Deputy Coroner J. G. Tyrrel were called to give evidence concerning the removal of the body from the store to the hospital and afterward to the Morgue. The witnesses were not cross examined.
 Detective Charles Crockett was then called and he was questioned at length concerning the condition of the re- volver at the time it was given to him. He testified as in the preliminary ex- animation that he had detected spots of blood on the pistol and that he had handled it very carefully, that the evil dence might be preserved. Questions, however. brought out the fact that the sleuth had carried the pistol in his overcoat pocket, and as the witness stated he had the bloody side up, which was thought by him to have prevented contact of pistol and coat, some anus ing incidents came up during the exam ination of the witness. General Barnes stood between the witness and the prosecuting attorney, Judge Murphy, and was politely informed by the Judge that he was not transparent and it was consequently hard to see through him. The General promptly replied that he had no difficulty In seeing through the Judge, at any rate through his actions. Then Charles Crockett was called Hoff- man, which caused a slight tittering among the lookers-on. In a moment the trial was resumed and flowed on in the even and uninteresting tenor of its way. More evidence will be introduced to-6aV

FOR ST. PATRICK's BAZAAR.
Entertainment to Be Given ln It's Aid at Metropolitan Temple
 To-Night


 Extensive preparations are being made at Metropolitan Hall in anticipation or the entertainment to be held there thus evening in aid of St Patrick's Grand Bazaar.
 Last Sunday morning placards indicat- ing the nature and explaining the purpose of the entertainment were distributed among the thousands of Catholics who attended the different masses during the morning and at the evening vespers. Father Brennan, who compiled the placards, pointed out the principal fea- lures of the programme to be adopted TOT the entertainment and showed the many reasons, from an enjoyable standpoint or view, why the public should not neglect to be in attendance.
 Enough interest has already been mani fested in the coming event to insure fair success, and it is hoped by the ladies who have the affair In charge that the attendance tonight at MetropolItan Temple will be large enough 10 renect ficient money to defray the expenses Of the coming bazaar.
 The programme has many exceptionally good numbers and many prominent enter tairers will be heard and seen at tneir best It reads as follows: Vocal 1ar-et. Miss Daisy " Keane, Miss Florence Ma gle, Harry Dinan and George F. FIav- wards: address. Rev. P. E. Muligan; so- prano solo, Miss Genevieve M. Sullivan; select recitation, Miss Charlotte E.

A Dog That Should Have Been Killed and Was
 Not.
Judge Campbell Will Have to Decide Upon a Serious
 Question.
J. B. Marshall Arrested for Allowing an Unlicensed Dog to Run
 at Large.

The peculiarities of the pound were exemplified in a case that came for the second time before Judge Campbell yesterday.
 J. B. Marshall of the Brighton saloon on Eddy street was arrested on war rant sworn to by Miss Emma Balz on charge of allowing an unlicensed dog to run at large. Marshall was arrested and gave $20 bail for his appearance in court.
 The case is a singular one. On Janu- ary 6, while Nathan BreSlauer, boy about 10 years of age, who lives with his widowed mother at 522 Golden Gate avenue, was sitting on the fence divid- ing the yard of his mothers house and the adjoining house occupied by MT. Brothers, a dog in the yard of the latter bit him on the leg. A warrant was obtained in Judge Campbell s court for the arrest of MT. Brothers, and on the promise that the dog would be taken to the pound and killed, the warrant was not served.
 Yesterday Miss Balz ascertained on going to the pound that the dog had not been killed. She found from the Poundkeeper that on the previous oc- casion when the dog was taken to the Central police station some one had said that the dog would be taken home and killed, and consequently the war rant was not served.
 Miss Balz on Monday saw the dog running around the street and yester- day she applied to Judge Campbell for warrant for the arrest of J. B. Mar shall on the charge of allowing an un- licensed dog to run at large. Marshall was arrested and gave $20 cash bail.
 According to Mrs. Breslauer the dog belonged to Marshall and had been left with Brothers, who resided at 524 Golden Gate avenue and who is Mar shalps father-in-law. On January 6, when the boy was sitting on the fence that divides the two houses the dog jumped at and bit him on the leg. The bite was so painful that two physicians had to be summoned and the boy for several days had to walk on crutches. Mrs. Breslauer was afraid of hydro phobia and insisted upon the dog being killed The dog was taken to the Gen. tral police station and on the promise that it would be killed by the pound master the charge was withdrawn.
 The poundmaster went to the Nor mandie Hotel the following day, where Marshall was staying, for the dog, and was told that it had been killed.
 Miss Balz on Monday was told that the dog was still alive and applied to Judge Campbell for the warrant for the arrest of Marshall, and some interest ing developments are expected in court to-day.

ADVERTISEMENTS.
CATARRH OF THE STOMACH
A Pleasant Simple, but Safe Effectual
 Cure for 1t.


 Catarrh of the stomach has long been considered the next thing to in- cuJable
 The usaul symptoms are full or bloating sensation after eating, accom- panied sometimes with sour CT watery risings a formation of gases, causing pressure on the heart and lungs and difficult breathing; headache, fickle ap- petite, nervousness and general played out, languid feeling.
 There is often foul taste in the mouth, coated tongue, and if the in- terior of the stomach could be seen it would show a slimy, inflamed condi- tion.
 The cure for this common and ob- stinate trouble Is found in 8 treatment which causes the food to be readily, thoroughly digested before it has time to ferment and irritate the delicate mucous surfaces of the stomach.
 According to pr. Harlanson the safest and best treatment Is to use af- ter each meal a tablet, composed of Disatase, Aseptic Pepsin, little Nux, Golden Seal and fruit acids.
 These tablets can now be found at all drugstores under the name of Stu- arts Dyspepsia Tablets, and, not being a patent medicine, can be used with perfect safety and assurance that healthy appetite and thorough diges- tion will follow their regular use after meals.
 Mr N. J. Booher of 2710 Dearborn street, Chicago. H., writes: "Catarrh is a local condition resulting from a neglected cold in the head, whereby the lining membrane of the nose be- comes infiamed and the poisonous dis charge therefrom, passing backward into the throat, reaches the stomach. thus producing catarrh of the stomach. Medical authorities prescribed for me for three years for catarrh of stomach without cure, but to-day I am the hap piest of men after using only one box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I can not find appropriate words to express my good feeling.
 I have found flesh. appetite and sound rest from their use.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is the safest preparation, as well as the simplest and most convenient remedy for any form of indigestion, catarrh of stomach, biliousness, sour stomach heartburn and bloating after meals.

 AFTER WELBURN.
Circulars Asking for His Arrest t Be Distributed by the United

Welburn, ex-Collector of h. ternal Revenue, who Is wanted by the United States authorities here on an in- dictment with thirty-one counts charg- ing him with neglecting to pay over to the Government money received by him as disbursng officer. If the Marshal sue ceeds in getting authority to make the necessary expenditure he will have sev. eral thousand circulars printed contain ing a photo of the missing ex-Collector and complete description of him.

THE BRISTOL LIBELED. Suit Against a British Steamer for Damages for Alleged Breach
 of Charter Party.

A libel was filed yesterday against the British steamer Bristol by the Portland and Alaska Trading and Transportation Company to recover s21 900 for alleged breach of charter party.
 The complaint charges that contract was entered into between the parties whereby the Bristol was to convoy and tow when necessary the steamer Eugene with 150 passengers to St. Michael for a consideration of s15,000, and that the Bristol by unskillful towing injured the Eugene in a storm after having gone out of the regular ocean track and after having delayed starting on the voyage for six days. It is also alleged that the passengers by means of threats forced E. B. Mcfarland, representing the libel ant to sign a release of the contract as far as the owners of the Bristol were con- cerned.
