There is a striking and significant
difference between the utterances OF
Senator Jones and III. l.. Loucks
which are given to the people of the
northwest to-day. The Arkansas
senator sticks to the forlorn hope of
sixteen to one," and seems to be
oblivions of the fact that it is a dead
issue, while the father of populism
frankly said to the Mitchell conven-
tion: "As for the free coinage of
silver, it will be very embarrassing
to discuss it, and the fusionist speak
or who attempts 1t at this time has
my sympathy" Loocks has dis
covered the emptiness of the popu-
list faith and is man enough to say
so. As he is not an Office seeker,
his words will probably have more
weight than those of the distinguish
ed politician from the south.

Teschers' Institute.

The Day County term OF Teachers
Institute comes to a close today, after
a profitable and interesting session Of
three weeks. AS was predicted, it has
proved the most successina term ever
held here, the beneficial results OF which
win be observed in improved school
work throughout the county. The
teachers in attendance are regretting
that institute is over, declaring "the
time seemed so short" and are lavish in
their praises OF Profs. Miller and
Farney, Miss Bloom, Miss Peabody and
Supt. Aasved as q body OF instructors.
Tt has been refreshing to witness the
zeal OF the attending teachers during
the entire session and their evident
desire to add to their knowledge of their
chosen profession. They leave us,
frightened and refreshed, to take up In
the different localities the duties OF the
school room. On Friday and Saturday,
the regular examination of applicants
for county certificates will take place at
the High School. The complete enroll
ment OF teachers in attendance at Insti-

THE KILLING OF
 DAVID PERCRIM
Coroner's Jury Charge Charles w. Dunn With the Crime
 Of Murder.
John B. Chrystal, New With ess, Appears and Tells About His
 BIackened Eye.

Coroner's jury yesterday inquiring into the death of David w. Pergrim from injuries received in a brawl in the Trans fer saloon, on the corner of Jones and O'Farrell streets, returned a verdict to the effect that Pergrim died on March IS at the City Receiving Hospital and that 'he came to his death from a gunshot wound inflicted by gun in the hands of Charles w. Dunn. and we further find that said shooting was unjustifiab
 Dunn, the prisoner, who had attempted to escape and who was intercepted by Sheriff Cunningham at Stockton, took the stand and repeated the story which he told the police and which was pub lished in The Call at the time.
 The new witness in the case made his appearance ht the inquest. He is a large man, wearing beard, and gave his name as J. B. Chrystal, stock and grain broker. Chrystal went into the saloon just before the killing and was standing by the bar holding a cigarette in his right hand and his left hand in his pocket. Pergrim approached him, and in an az gressive and insulting manner remarked that he had a mind to knock the insides out of MT. Chrystal. Upon Chrystal re- plying in a pleasant way that he would try to preserve the integrity of his in- wards the best way he knew how, the conversation branched off to the Maine disaster, and Pergrim announced that he had served in the British and Scandi- navian navies. Chrystal periodically re- marked that his country could have him whenever it wished, and could have him without money and without price, for he would volunteer.
 This outburst of patriotism displeased the deceased, who declared that all Americans were of canine descent, in- cluding Chrystal
 Then he biffed me in the eye" said Chrystal.
 He was preparing to make a counter attack upon Pergrim, but was dissuaded by Dunn, who took him behind the bar and with the assistance of Mrs. Dunn put hot applications to his eye. He then went away and did not witness the shoot ing. His eye remained black for several days, and he therefore did not come down town, being restrained by feeling of shame.
