James Martinez magnanimously for gave Jose when the latter vowed he would immediately go to Fresno and live there, and to have no further com munication with the wife
 Last Tuesday James was informed that Jose was secretly hiding in Po- mona Valley, and that he and Mrs Martinez communicated with each other. James armed himself and gave no indication of his suspicious. He toId his wife last evening that he had business in Pomona and would be away from home all night. He came to Pomona, remained about a billiard nall all the evening, and then started nome. He reached there at midnight. Secretly approaching the house. he en- tered and went to bed.
 At 7 o'clock he was reused by some one stealing into the kitchen through an open window. He called out and got out of bed at once. He saw in the moonlight Jose Martinez crossing the foor in his stocking feet. At that mo- ment Jose started back and then he fired twice at James. The bullets went into the casing of the door an inch from James. The latter snatched up revolver, and, running into the dining-room, fired deliberately at Jose The cousin groaned and fell back upon the floor. James says he walked closer and fired twice at the prostrate body. Then he lighted lamp, and, leaving drove to Pomona, hunted a policeman and gave himself up

because of a hallueination from which he suffered. Some years ago an Italian died and left his cane to Castro, say ing in the cane Castro would find the key to his wealth. Castro tried every way to find the "key," but to no avail, and, finally, becoming disgusted, he sold the cane to Thomas Oliver. Oliver. thinking to play a joke on the old man, knocked the head off the cane and pre- tended to find some very fine diamonds inside the head. He, of course, never produced the stones, but Castro, with the disappointment and persistency of age. brooded over his supposed loss until it became a. mania with him. On all other subjects he preserved a keen intellect until the end.

There is to be an official investigation of the Agnews scandals. Governor Budd is indignant over the fact that the concluding days of his administra- tion should be besmirched by the un- savory mess that has been uncovered in that institution, and he has deter mined that he will thoroughly fumigate and purify it's moral atmosphere.

Matthews of the Board of Health, Dr. Hatch (Superin- tendent of State Hospitals) and Isaac Upham (trustee and manager of the Agnews Asylum).
 The meeting was not open to. the public, but from the tones of the speakers, as heard now and again, it was not lacking in animation, es- pecially on the part of the Governor, whose voice indicated that he was not pleased. The gathering was brought to an end by the action of Isaac Up- ham, who presented the following re- quest, which was granted by a unani- nous vote:
 Gentlemen: As a manager of the Agnews State Hospital I hereby re- quest that the Commission of Lunacy investigate at it's earliest convenience the general management and admins tration of said hospital"
 The Governor set next Tuesday at II o'clock as the time for the investiga- tion to begin. The inquiry will be held at the asylum at Agnews The secre- I ogle of the action of the commission and to issue subpenas for witnesses.

The Garonne left St. Michael on July 12, just previous to the arrival or the Seattle No. 1 from Dawson. She had 160 passengers with $500,000 in gold and drafts. The steamer LeelanaW had ar rived with two barges and two river steamers.
 The Alliance was expected to leave St Michael for Seattle on July lS with two-thirds of the river passengers brought down on the Seattle No. l. The Yukon was still getting lower and many believed the low water record would be broken this year.
 The river steamers John c. Barr and Rock Island No left for Dawson on the 9th and 11th, respectively, laden with passengers. It was thought that the Rcck Island drew too much water to get over the bar. She had the pas sencers of the GarOnne.
 It is reported that the 'steamer Charles Nelson had trouble with her passengers. Some of them had been landed and were living in boats on the beach. Others refused to leave the ship, as the company's river steamers had not arrived. The Nelson was oth- erwise ready to sail south with lot or passengers

"Cats are by no means as hardy as
suggested by the old adage that each
cat has nine lives" remarked a yeteri-
marian who makes a speciality of treat
ing sick cats. But there is no reason
why. with proper care, pet cat should
not live to a very green old age.
"Cats should be fed regularly. and at
least twice a day. Bread and milk or
oatmeal porridge and milk, the milk
having a little hot water and trifie OF
sugar added to it in chilly weather,
should constitute their breakfast While
bread and broth. with a little cooked
meat is quite sufficient for their dinner.
"a little fresh fish may be given occa-
sionaIly. and now and then morsel OF
uncooked liver and meat. care being
taken to remove all fat. and any vegeta-
bic for which the animal shows fond
ness may be given with discretion.
Remember to see that cat always
has access to plenty of fresh water
ara fresh grass grass being a genuine
nanacea. for all their minor troubles.
''The diseases of cats include sore
throat. bronchitis, pneumonia and con-
sumption being especially prevalent
among them. as they are very suscepti-
bic to dampness. One OF the first symp-
toms of illness Is a rough and untdy
coat. If this be accompanied by rest
lessness and Ianguor. it is safe TO ad-
minister a dose of castor oil and provide
kittie with a sheltered place until the
effect has worn off.
where the presence of any kind Of
poison is suspected. prompt and ener-
ge.ie action is necessary. a liberal dose
of lukewarm water. slightly salted, gem
orally has a good effect. but it is safest
10 give at once sweet oil or melted lard.
After such an experience a course OF
cod liver oil is advised, with a generous
diet
"A little powdered sulphur made into a
| paste with lard or unsalted butter. and
smeared over the front paws, is an ex-
| cellent thing to keep a cat in good con-
| dition, but care should be taken to
| keep it from all exposure to dampness
until the effects of the dose disappear.

may be at first, they soon come to IN
