INSANE JEALOUSY
LEADS TO MURDER
Double Tragedy Near
Santa Maria.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SANTA BARBARA. May ia sad
double tragedy was enacted yesterday
afternoon about ten miles from Santa
Maria, in secluded and unfrequented
spot. J. NJ Hamilton, a painter by
trade and in the employ of the Union
Sugar Company, cut his wife's throat
with a rusty pocketknife and then
killed himself. 1t is believed he was
not in his right mind and was jealous
of his wife
Hamilton and his wife drove over to
visit their daughter, Mrs. James Oil
vera, who lives on the Dutard ranch,
ten miles from the Union Sugar Com
pany's factory. They spent yesterday
afternoon with her. Mrs. Olivera noticed
nothing unusual in the conduct of her
father. and he seemed to be in the best
of spirits. At o'clock Hamilton and
his wife started for home. A half hour
later the team came back to the OhVera
ranch on a dead run. hauling an empty
buggy. Rancher OliVera and party
started down the road to search for Mr..
and Mrs. Hamilton. When about three
miles away, in q little hollow secluded
on all sides by trees, they found Mrs.
Hamilton lying beside the road dead.
Her throat had been cut from ear to
ear. Hamilton was sitting some dis
lance away. with his back against q
board fence, holding a knife in his
hand Olivera yelled at Hamilton,
whereupOn the latter turned upon him
self the same rusty knife with which
he had destroyed his wife, cutting his
own throat and dying almost instantly,
without a word for his son-in-law.
Near ~ was found a note, unintelligi-
bic except for these few words:
i 1T h.,
He had addressed it to no one appar
entity, nor had he finished it. The sus
picion is that he was writing the note
as the party came upon him.
Shortly afterward superintendent of
County Schools Edwards and Mr.. Mar
but drove by. These gentlemen watched
the bodies while the Olivera party
drove off to Santa Maria, a distance
of ten miles, over a rough country road,
and at midnight Acting Coroner L. ].
Morris was notified. He went TO the
scene of the murder and suicide and
returned with the bodies. To-day the
COroner's jury rendered a verdict of
murder and suicide
Hamilton was 40 years of age and his
wife SS. They We're natives of Georgia
and had resided on this coast fifteen
years, living at different times at Pasa-
dena, Los Angeles, Oakland, San Fran
cisco, LompoC, Bakersfield and Santa
Maria. He had been in the employ of
the Union Sugar Factory only three
weeks. He leaves three children-Mrs.
Olivera and two sons, one of whom
lives at Santa Maria. Hamilton and
his wife will be buried tomorrow by
the odd Fellows.
For five years Mrs. Hamilton knew
that her husband was not balanced
mentally. Although his employers
never noticed anything wrong with
him, yet at times he would become very
brutal about the house. He was known
to be insanely jealous of his wife, al
though without cause

SANTA BARBARA, May 15.-The
determined stand taken by Louis G..

coast road will lie for a distance of
twenty-seven miles, has made Coils

Mr.. Edward Ivison. Santa Barbara
Dear Sir; Yours of the 10th, with news
paper clippings inclosed, is received, for
which you have my thanks. l think you
in Santa Barbara and those living along
the line of the road know as we'll as we
do what is required, and. as l wrote you
before, I would like to have the right of
way cleared up as soon as it we'll can be.
will endeavor, and / think / could get
my co-associates to pay something
toward the accomplishment of this
end, but l would like to know just
what 1t will cost to get the free right
of way so that we could cover the gap
with workmen. | have given orders 70
the contractors not to put on any greater
force until this matter is settled, and of
course we shall give a reasonable time
for this right of way matter to be cleared
up. 1t is quite true that we did not agree
to build the road until all the rights of
way had been furnished, and we are,
therefore, in a sense technically blame
less. having done what we agreed to do
AT the same time l do not feel satisfied
with what we have done, thinking that
we have come little short ourselves of
doing the best we knew how toward
building this road and so I shall speak
with my people and get them if 1 can to
agree to pay a part of the expense of
clearing up these rights of way, only we
must know just what the expense will be
and know as soon as the information can
be given us. We cannot wait very long
for it, and we cannot afford to push the
of way is entirely cleared up and closed.
l hope it will be done promptly. Yours
truly, c. p. HUNTINGTON.

Miss Mason and Mr.. Persse. She di
vulged unheralded dramaisms that
were nothing short of sensation in
the strenuous role of Santuzza; her
singing was even and pure and she
brought out a great deal of the pas
sionate color of the part. Mr.. Persse,
too, separated himself effectively from
his comic opera personality and gave
Turridu with convincing vehemence. His
voice, so delicately tender in the lighter
operas, finds surprisingly congenial
vent in the excitement of this one. Hat
tie Bell Laid played Lola with a GER
tain Carmenesque flavor that was not
out of keeping, and Bertha Ricci was
an uneventful Lucia. Most LUCAS are.
A somewhat stuffed Alto was Mr.. Golf;
but all in all the performance deserved
it's flowers and applause.
In "Pinafore," which came first, the
staging was copious and good and the
ensembles notably free and strong. All
the satire that is in Gilbert'S libretto
was not squeezed out, but the acting
was, on the whole, much better than we
are accustomed to in local productions
of this musical comedy. Mr.. Wolff was
fully as good a Dick Deadeye as 1 can
recall, and he sang the part as l never
remember to have heard it sung by
any one else. Mr.. Wooley presented the
ruler of the Queens navee with fas-
tidious elegance that was very fit, and
gave an attractive characterization
throughout although he did not con-
trive to get quite the best humor out
of his lyrics. Daisy Thorne was the
proud, glacial Josephine in just that
way, and Winifred Golf was fairly
pompous as the captain. Little Butter
cup was an amiable phase of Miss
Ricci, and Miro Delamotta made a good
figure of Ralph Rackstraw and sang
with urgent charm in all but the top
notes of his voice
The more l think it over the more [
like this eccentric double bill. 1t is not
as hearty a feast as when the "Pagli-
acci'' is Siamized with the "Cavalleria,"
but that is rather an advantage these
vaudeville days.

SUCCESS BY THE
SOUTHWELLS IN
A DOUBLE BILL
"Pinafore'' and "Cav-
alleria Rusticana.

BRACE OF GOOD VARIETY ACTS
AND A BAD ONE.
The Held-Over Farces Continue in
Popular Favor at the
Columbia and

BRACE OF GOOD VARIETY ACTS
AND A BAD ONE.

Rather a weird double bill, this of
"Pinafore'' and "Cavalleria Rustcana,"
but not half so unpalatable as you
would think. In fact, it sounds much
better than it looks in type, and the
good sized audience that turned into
the Grand Opera House last night re-
warded the efforts Of the Southwell
company with many premeditated bou-
quets and, what was better still, much
spontaneous applause. That this clever
company would make easy work of
'Pinafore" was a foregone conclusion,
but there was a deal of speculation as
TO the outcome of "Cavalleria," the first
serious opera of the Southwell season.
And be it said at once to the credit of
all concerned that the Mascagni pro-
duction was distinctly admirable. The
choruses were alert and vigorous and
they sang richly and in tune; the or
chestra, under Mr.. Simonson, was in
sympathy with the tense, sultry spirit
of the score; the stage pictures and
stage direction We're competently ar
ranged, and two of the five principals
scored signal victories. These were

OAKLAND, May 15.-But for the timely
interference of Antanacia Madriaga and
Policeman Keefe, Manuel Davie might
have executed his threat to cut out the
hearts of his aged mother and step
father tonight. The Davies reside at
Forty-fifth street and Shattuck avenue
and young Davie acted queer when he
arrived home. After picking quarrel
with his step-father he finally whipped
out his big pocketknife and declared he
would cut out his parents hearts. They
ran from the house and Manuel gave
chase, and was Intercepted by Madriaga
and Officer Keefe
At the City Prison the bloodthirsty
young man was booked simply for dis

SHOUP SAYS QUAY
WILL BE SEATED
Appointees From Other States, He
Thinks, Will Also Be Admitted
to the Senate

BOISE, Idaho, May Ex-senator Shoup
returned from Lemhi County to-day. He
was asked what his attitude was respect
ing the seating of Senator Quay on the
Governors appointment. He said he was
not prepared to announce what he would
do, but it was his opinion that Quay
would be seated. He based his opinion on
the fact that in the Mantle contest the
Republicans largely voted for seating the
applicant. He did not know how the new
men felt, but ii was his opinion that the
large Republican majority would be suf-
ficient to carry Senator Quay in If the
vote remained divided anywhere near the
same as before. The Corbett case he said,
was not a criterion, as the surrounding
conditions were much different.
The seating of Quay. he said would
carry with it the seating of appointees
from other States. The Senator voted for
Mantle and the others that year whose
cases hinged on the Mantle decision.

VANCOUVER, b c., May 15.-The
struggle for the possession of the alleged
imperial naval reserve known as Dead
Mans Island, between the Chicago cap
italists. Stuart & Wells, and the pro-
VinCial government, eliminated in a
fight on the island to-day. Theodore
Ludgate, who is acting for the Chicago
men, although arrested short time
ago al the instance Of the city, took
over sixty men before daybreak this
morning and commenced to fell all the
magnificent timber on the island He
received a message last night from the
Federal Government, which had grant
ed him lease of the island, giving him
permission to go ahead with the work
of erecting an immense sawmill.
The men had been ar work about two
hours when all the provincial police
men in the city and a squad of city
policemen landed They were accom-
panied by Attorney General Martin,
Mayor Garden and Magistrate Ander-
son. Ludgate was told to stop work
at once. He said:
L am empowered by the Dominion
Government to go ahead and 1 defy
you to stop me-
The Attorney General then ordered
his arrest. Ludgate, who is a young
Hercules, standing six feet three, coolly
folded his arms and waited for the APP
proach of officer Campbell. The latter
advanced with pair or handouts. but
in a trice was thrown on his back by
the mill Liam. He called loudly for the
city police to help him. Several re-
sponded and desperate hand-to-hand
encounter ensued. Ludgate was thrown
to the ground and badly cut about the
face. Captain Gates, who is working
with him. called upon the men EN-
ployed in clearing the island to as
sist their leader.
In groups of five and six the men
hurried to the spot, armed with axes.
picks and shovels. While Ludgate.
bleeding and covered with mud, strug
gled with the officers, Magistrate An
derson mounted a stump and as the
sixty employees were about to make an
attack on the Government officials and
police officers he read the riot act.
Say the word, captain" said the men
to Ludgate, who was by this time hand
cuffed, and We'll throw the officers
into the sea"
Men, l don't want TO see any blood
she'd" replied Ludgate We will have
to give in to the law this time.
The Attorney General then addressed
the Infatuated workmen and said if
minutes he would order them shot
down. The men held a hurried confer
ence and finally decided to leave. Lud-
gate was driven to the city. securely
ironed, with two policemen guarding
him. When he reached here he was
surrounded by a large crowd of promi-
nent citizens, who offered him every
support in his fight This afternoon
Ludgate was brought before Magistrate
Anderson on a charge of unlawfully
cutting timber on crown lands. The
case was adjourned until Thursday.
