A MATRIMONIAL ERAun-

When you read the matrimonial al

yearning for a manly man to care
for her and the money, don't you be
lieye it. Don't even waste q stamp
investigating. Money doesn't grow
on bushes, and beauty ani sweet
dispositions do not have to advertise
for husbands.

And then the police arrested this
Newburg Juno. They found a woman
of As, fat, and not napdsome-no, not
in thousand years could she be
truthfuily called beautiful. she ex-
postulated in broken German and
English, and the Romance vanished
from her case by the time she reach
ed cell.
Good enough for the fools who per-
sist in answering sucn advertise

names appended, should be published
as an example of the sickening fol
ly of mankind.

A few years ago Howard was. in

SUPREME COURT DECISIONS.
Attorneys Abandon Efforts for Release
of Mrs. BOtkin.

In the Supreme Court yesterday the
case of Mrs. Cordelia Botkin against the
people of California was ordered dis
missed upon the presentation by the clerk
of the court of stipulation from Mrs.
Botkin's counsel authorizing such pro-
ceeding.
The case came to this court from the
decision of the Superior Court of San
Francisco. and was instituted to secure
the release of Mrs. Botkin, who is under
sentence of life Imprisonment on the
charge of numbering Mrs. Dunning by
sending to her a box of poisoned candy.
By the action of the Supreme Court the
defence tacitly admits that the judgment
OF the Superior Court of San Francisco is
final.

Kenna the validity of city ordinance OF
