SENTENCE life Imprisonment, notice Of
suit for divorce was again served on
her, this time on the grounds Of her
sentence. Her lawyer, a practitioner.
not of the firm of knight & Heggerty,
however, announced his determination
to contest the suit again and told
Mr.. Botkin that he would have to wait
until the final courts ordered his wife
/ to San Quentin to make his grounds
! valid.
1t is said that Mr. Botkin thereat
Immediately proclaimed his intention
OF going UP to FerndaIe. the residence
of Mrs. Botkin's parents, and inform
ing them that their daughter. whom
they supposed to De in Europe on
pleasure, was in reality under convic-
ton for the greatest of crimes. The
lawyer is credited with rising to the oc-
casion by saying:
Really? Go ahead, but first make
sure you are not having your trouble
for your paiRs.'
However brave a front was displayed
to Mr.. Botkin, that gentleman was
scarcely down to the street before
message of warning was on the wires
to Ferndale. The citizens of the little
town seemed to constitute themselves
into vigilance committee, with a sin
gle object in view-to keep a crush.<g
sorrow and bitter humiliation from
two of their old friends. For several
weeks all strangers were subjected to
a strict surveillance. Did one step
from a train a swift messenger APP
peared at the residence of Mr. and
Mrs. Browne to tell the younger MEM
bers of the family that "a strange man
just got off at the station"
No avenue was left unguarded
through which by any carelessness or
malice hint could creep through. The
old couple were never left alone on the
veranda or in the yard for a moment.
kind neighbors alternating with the
family in maintaining vigiIant watch
over all who came near the house.
The Ferndale paper, a weekly, had
regularly given news of the case at the
time of its trial. However, so far as
this paper was concerned there was no
'Botkin" trial--it was the "Dunning
case and the prisoner was never re-
ferred to as Mrs. BOtkin but simply
as the accused" The editor trusted
to Mr.. Brownies extreme age though,
he still continued to be devoted to the
papers, to overlook any inaccuracies in
his newspaper reports. The San Fran
cisco paper due daily at Mr.. Brownies
residence generally lost a page at the
dealers before being delivered. On
more than one occasion the train
failed to bring them" This was when
they could not be skilfully mutilated.
Perhaps there is no other instance re-
corded in which an entire community
so unanimously and so zealouslv con-
sp1red to do a disintereSted kirN SIS.
Mr.. Browne lived for three years
after his daughters conviction, then
died in absolute ignorance of her trou-
BILE. The mother now SO years old
lives on with no other thought than
that her daughter is merely prolong-
ing her European trip.

Never learned Of Her
Conviction.

forming a beautiful screen before the
window, but they cling for a support
to iron bars.
From the little garden which she was
permitted to make and cultivate are
drawn the lettuce, radishes and other
vegetables Of easy culture that appear
on her table. Relatives in northern Cal
ifornia send her at stated intervals
butter and fruit. These supplies, with
the addition of whole wheat bread and
"a, meat only as her appetite demands
II, form her simple menu.
Interest in her case has never sus-
tanned a decline in the curiosity of the
San Francisco public. Even now on
visitors day curious strangers take up
a position outside of her screened
windows endeavoring TO peer in.
A gentleman who has been closely
connected with the case from the be-
ginning remarked to the writer:
All the employees who have come in
contact with Mrs. BOtkin since her in
generation have had something good
to say Of her. AS yet 1 have never
heard one criticise her in any way
The prisoner has every moment
planned to keep brain or hand busy.
In addition to accomplishing a certain
amount of sewing for herself and her
mother, Mrs. Botkin has. since in Jail,
pieced a number of silk quilts. She
has also learned to weave baskets. A
certain portion of the day is allotted to
her diary, which now fills some dozen
large ledgers. Another portion is de-
voted to. the study of Spanish and
French and another to exercise for re-
ductiOn of flesh, which under the jail
regime is increasing.
Before this accusation had been cast
upon Mrs. BOtkin her husband, Will
liam C. Botkin, formerly Well known
in Kansas City and Joplin, where he
had mining interests, had sued for a
divorce. She had contested her suit
successfully in more than one court,
the charges not being sustained. Last
October he again brought suit against
her and won, Mrs. Botkin, in view of
her closely impending trial for life,
not appearing in the lesser suit. When
Mrs. Botkin was first arrested for this
crime her husband, though he had been
seeking a divorce from her, hurried to
her aid. offering his moral and f1nan-
cial superior one condition. No
woman in Mrs. Botkin's trouble, pen
niless and seemingly friendiess, was in
position to refuse aid even with a
dozen prOvisOs attached. The offer was
accordingly accepted, the condition re-
garded, the battle fought, and Mrs.
Botkin lost.

use them, iron and gold must
first be got out of the ore. The
same principle applies to cod liv-
er oil. Its virtues are not in its
fatty matters; much less in its
sickening taste and smell. No
consumptive, or sufferer from any
other wasting disease, was ever
greatly benefited by the so called
"plain cod liver oil. The shock
it gives to the nerves, the repul-
sion and disgust it excites in the
stomach, the outrages it commits
upon the senses of smell and
taste, are enough to spoil any
medicinal potency that may be
in it for the majority of people.
This-to say nothing about its
being indigestible. Yet there
has always been reason to believe
that, among the elements which
form cod liver oil, there ex-
listed curative properties of the
highest value. But it was neces-
sary to separate them from the
nauseating waste material with
which they were combined. This
was successfully accomplished in
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
and IN this effective remedy,
made palatable as honey, we have
the very heart and soul of Pure
Cod Liver Oil, combined with the
Compound Syrup Of Hypophos-
phites, Extracts of Malt and Wild
Cherry. These constitute a tissue
builder, a blood purifier, a health
remover beyond comparison. Dis
ease yields to it with a complete
ness and rapidity which aston
ishes medical men quite as much
as it delights their patients. In
all wasting conditions, ScrOfula
and Blood Disorders, La Grippe,
Chronic Bronchitis, Pulmonary
Affections, etc., it never fails to
relieve and cure. DIR. Louis W.
Bishop says: 81 take pleasure in
saying / have found it a most
efficient preparation, embodying
all of the medicinal properties
of a pure cod liver oil, in a most
palatable form" 1t stands in the
front rank in the march of med
icine. Effective from the first
dose. Sold by all chemists here.

THE CERTIORARI
is DENIED
JUSTICE PERRY DECIDES THE
KONA SUGAR COMPANY CASE.
COERPERs PETITION is DENIED

Justice Perry of the Supreme court
this morning rendered a decision deny
ing the petition of Jacob Coerper for
a writ of certiorari in the Kona Sugar
Company case. The petition for a
writ was brought by Coerper as an
effort to set aside the orders of Judge
Edings, by which a receiver was APP
pointed for Kona plantation and the
plantation was ordered sold at auction.
The first order appointing a receiver
was made on March %, 1902. Justice
Perry says:
After this long delay, the petitioner
must be deemed by his inaction to have
acquiesced in the order of March %,
1902 and to have waived his objection
thereto.
"At to the other two DEGREES, also. the
prayer of the petition should, l think
be denied, for at least two reasons In
the first place, the petitioner has not
exhausted his remedy in the original
suit. If it is true, as in substance al
legged in the petition, that the corpora
ton and all of it's directors have been
acting in collision with the complain
ants and the receiver to procure the
DEGREES in question and a sale of it's
property and have failed to properly
defend the suit, the petitioner a stock
holder, may, by motion or petition in
that suit, and upon a proper showing
that he has applied to the corpora ton
to protest the defense now relied
upon and that the corporation has re-
fused to do so or that such applica-
ton would be useless, ask for and OBJ
tain leave of the court to intervene in
his own name, as a stakeholder, and
to present such defense for the protec-
ton of his interests and those of such
other stockholder as may choose to join
him.
Nor is it an insuperable obstacle to
this means of obtaining relief, that the
DEGREES have already been made. The
sale has not taken place, but has been
indefinitely postponed for lack of bid
| ders 1t is still in the power of the
Circuit Judge to revoke the DEGREES If
sufficient cause therefor is shown or to
set them aside if the defense of nullity
is established to his satisfaction. Ger
tiorari is an extraordinary writ and
should not be granted where the or
binary remedies are still available to
! the applicant.
THE petition is defective in another
| respect. 1t contains an averment to
the effect that a meeting of the stock
! holders held October q. 1902, a majority
| of the stock was voted in favor of pro-
| curing or consenting to a decree of sale
| but fails to show clearly that the pc
| titioner did not vote his stock in favor
of that course of action. If the petit
! toner at that time Joined. in consenting
! to a sale, he cannot now, in view of the
provisions of our statute, be heard to
complain by certiorari
"At to whether or not upon the show
/ ing made in the petition, the DEGREES
assailed are null and void, no opinion is
expressed.
THE petition is denied"
