WHY NOT THE cARNATioN?

The American people have been
agitated for some years over the Sc
lection Of national flower to vie
with the Scotch thistle and the Irish
shamrock. Since Ohio has set the
pace and adopted the carnation as a
state flower, why not go farther and
make the state emblem that of the
nation? Mckinley was the president
OF the whole people.

died of an epidemic of fever. Their loss
had so preyed upon his mind that he
began to show signs Of mental aberra-
tion. He was closely watched, but
while Mrs. Jones was absent from his
room for about a minute yesterday
morning he attempted to jump out Of
the window, which is on the second
story. She was in time to seize one of
his wrists She cried for help and held
him till the two policemen arrived.
They wanted to send him to the Cen
trail Emergency Hospital. but Mrs
Jones demurred and sent for her own
physician. After examining the youth
the doctor said the case was not an in
durable one and that the boy would be
all right in few weeks with proper
care.
Mrs. Jones says the boy is heir to a
rich estate in Manila, where his father
was a prominent physician.

A woman screaming for help while

Dougherty and Mahoney were driven to
the place in the patrol wagon and soon
had the suspended youth dragged back
into the room.
The boy was Teortono Conas Cruz,

both sides formed part of the instruc-
ton to the jury and should be consid-
cred. Judge Lawlor announced that he
would render decision and advise the
jury later in the day and the jurors
were returned to their room to resume
balloting.
At o'clock they were recalled and
Judge Lawlor announced that in ad-
dition to previous instructions he would
read the act referring to warehouses
and warehouse receipts. This act pro-
vides among other things that no ware
house man shall issue a receipt for
goods unless such goods have been
actually received and that no ware
house shall issue a voucher unless the
goods are in the store. The law also
provides that no portion of the goods
in a warehouse shall be moved without
the written consent of the owner. In
conclusion the court said it was the
duty of the jury to consider all the
testimony with the exception of that
which had been ordered stricken from
the record. The question whether or
not Jacob Eppinger visited the Inter
national Bank on April 10 the court
ruled was a matter for the jury to con-
slider and one on which he could not
advise.

Stung by remorse and unstrung by a
two weeks debauch, Captain Carl Ack-
erIran Of the steam schooner Prentiss
ended his life yesterday at the Golden
West Hotel. Before he took this step
he made restitution in full of the funds
he had misappropriated, and assured
himself that the faithful wife whom he
had neglected was fully provided for.
Ackerman's history is the pathetic
story of a man, honest at heart, lured
by the ephemeral pleasures of the half
world from the paths of duty Led by
designing companions, he flung about
with reckless prodigality money which
was not his, set the wine corks popping
to please a pair of painted vampires
and forgot his work and his wife. He
has paid the price in full with the saw
ings of years and his life.
About two weeks ago Captain Acker-
man arrived here from Los Angeles on
the steamer Prentiss. With him were
a man named Alex Wise and two wom- :
en-. The owners of the vessel repri-
manded the master for bringing pas
sengers without consulting the firm.
Ackerman was piqued by the rebuke
and disappeared with $500 with which
he was, to pay his men. Recklessly he
lost himself among the flotsam of the
tenderloin. A few drinks stole his rea-
son and magnified his troubles. Lured
by two graceless women, he threw his
employers money to the harpies.
When Ackerman became partially So
Der he realized what he had done and
appealed to his wife, Mrs. Agnes Ack-
erman of "a South Park. She remained
faithful to him in spite of everything
She drew from the bank the little saw
ings they had stored away and paid
Gray Bros, her husbands employers,
the ent9e amount Unsupported by
him, in addition to $122 detectives fees
they had spent in looking for him. Last
Friday Ackerman consulted his lawyer,
Charles Naylor, and arranged the mat
ter Of restitution. Everything was paid
in full.
Then Ackerman went to the rooms of
