Prof. Fait and his company will com meuCe a weeks engag gement at the Doris theater next Monday, March II. They have been greeted by large and thoroughly satisfied audiences Wher- ever they have appeared. and the en- gcgement here will probably not prove an exception to the rule. The enter tainmert given is. rot only mystilying, but furnishes many features that are extremely amusing.
 The Morning Echo of Bakersfield gives the following account of recent performance in that city:
 "ScribneT's opera house had a large audience last evening to witness the mind reading feats and hypnotic dem oustratiOrs by Professor Faft. His mind reading feats are far superior to anything ever performed here. The most marvellous feat was finding the members of a wedding party-groOm, bride. minister. father, son, mother and a witness-in the audience, pre- viously designated Gin the minD Of the committee After finding the vali- ous parties correctly. the professor, not blindfolded TOW, went into the au- dience alone. the committee remaining on the stage and designated the par ties he had previously q designated bIindfolded. The minds of the commit tee on the stage were oe-tered on the proper persons.
 "The second part of the program consisted Of a hypnotic dauon7tr1tion, and the exhibition was highly amusing, the audienC5 rA,ring with laughter.
 "The professor will close his per formance tonight with an expose Of the tricks performed by fraudulent spiritualists. also another hypnotic de- moustTation."

Abbott, $4,000 insurance on the life
of her father. the late Edward F. All

ment she had with her father she
paid half of the premiums on the in
surance policy with the understanding
that the amount of the policy was to
be equally divided between herself
and sister. She says that her father,
after making such an agreement, de-
liberately changed the policy so that
$500 became payable to-Mrs. Abbott
and only $500 to herself.

Judge de Haven Decides That She

the ocean beach a mile and a half
south of the Cliff House on December
% by Frances Hanique. middle-aged
woman, who rushed barefooted into
the s1,rf and hauled the launch ashore.
The following is the decision:
Il think the evidence given by the
IibeIant is substantially true, but in my
opinion it does not show that she res
cued the Famiglia Unita from any
peril. Indeed, I do not think that
what was done by the libelant ma
terialIy aided the launch in reaching
the shore. 1t is clear that what was
done by the libelant does not const-
tute a salvage service in any sense

FL PESCADERO'S
OWNER IS SUED
David Jacks and Pacific I'm
provement Company Are
Charged With a Land Fraud
GORE WANTS THE RANCH
Alleges That the Government
Patent Was Obtained by
InadverteRe and Mistake

Suit was filed yesterday in the United
States Circuit Court by John C. Gore
Jr. and Hamilton Gay Howard against
the United States of America, David
Jacks and the Pacific Improvement
Company to quiet title to the Rancho
eI Pescadero, in Monterey County.
The complaint alleges that the prop
erty was enormously patented by the
United States to David Jacks on Feb
ruary 10, 1868, and that j. c. Gore Jr.
has been defrauded cut of the prop
erty. 1t is set forth that Gore Jr. filed
suit against Jacks in the United States
Circuit Court in 1869 over the same
piece of property and that Gore lost
the SUIT by reason of the statute Of
limitations. But in the present suit
Gore urges that the patent had not
been pleaded by Jacks; that it's valid
ity had not in any manner been ques-
toned; that Gore was ignorant of it's
existence until the bringing CT the pres
ent suit, and that the patent was not
recorded until July 80, $780, when the
Pacific Improvement Company had it
placed upon the records.
1t is alleged that on February 4, 1862,
John c. Gore conveyed the property
to his son, John c. Gore Jr., who gave
his power of attorney to- Frederick u.
Seymour of Boston, who in turn con-
veyed it to Edward Tompkins of Bing-
hamton, n. Y, in exchange for some
of Tompkins' property in that place
alleged TO be much inferior in value
and heavily incumbered If is alleged
also that on April 8, 1862, David Jacks
got quit claim deed from Tompkins
for stated consideration of $4,000.
1t is further alleged that Edward
Tompkins, Frederick u. Seymour, d.
r. Ashley, B. F. Ankeny and David
Jacks were cOnspirators and success
sively engaged in an attempt to de-
fraud Gore Jr. of the patent; that Jacks
had always intended to criminally get
possession of the ranch and to defraud
the United States and to cause the
United States to issue letters patent
for the ranch oIhim instead of to
Gore or his son Gore Jr.. and that the
Pacific Improvement Company was
cognizant of Jacks illegal title at the
time of the purchase. OF the persons
mentioned as ccnspirators Jacks is said
to be the only one remaining alive.
1t is further stated that the property
takes in part of the Seventeen Mile
drive in Monterey County; that it is
of the value of half million dollars.
and that the patent was issued through
the inadvertence and mistake of the
United States officials.

r. f. Oakley, salesman with Muir

brousse's condition prior to the MUIR
der, saying that he seemed to him to
be a nervous wreck. Oakley thought
the mans mind was affected.
John o. Broden, employed by Wolf
& France, told how erratic De La
brousse seemed to him and of his look
ing into vacancy, and the Rev. Father
Robert F. Sesnon of the Church of the
Star of the Sea told of visiting defend
ant in the Broadway Jail some six
weeks ago, when he found him to be ir-
rational, emotional and upset. Father
Sesnon said he tried to console him.
De Labrousse admitted that he was
very sorry for what had happened, was
profuse in his thanks for the visit and
wept
Henry Kugelberg, employed at Sam
uels' Lace House, had known De La
brousse some years. He said that two
weeks prior to the murder De La
brousse w3s detected. He had always
given the witness the impression that
he was erratic. When he worked with
him some years ago at O'Connor, Mof-
fatt & Co.'S he was called 1.-The crazy
Frenchman" by employees in the store,
not that they thought him crazy, but on
account of his demonstrative manner.
Willatz Johannsen, Jean Baptiste

as to the mental condition of defend
ant, all agreeing that he was strange
in his manner, while Subra said that
he was not only erratic, but that he
had made threats to commit suicide on
| two occasions. Subra said that DE
Labrousse was quick tempered.

/ Jordan's life. He went out with the
intention, said Attorney Roche, OF
ending his own career. He bade his
landlady good-by, went out and seeing
Miss Jordan leave a car, approached
her and in a short while, she having
refused to speak to him, he drew a
revolver and shot her and ther at
tempted suicide.
AT this point of the address De La
brousse moved for the first time from
a leaning position, and applying his
handkerchief to his eyes, languidly
wiped away the falling tears.
Attorney Roche called a number of
witnesses in support of his statement
that De Labrousse prior to the murder
was not of sound mind. Michael j.
Hynes, Public Administrator, was the
first witness called by the defense. He
told o. his acquaintance with De La
brOusse. whom he had known when he,
too, was employed at the City of Paris
Hynes said that he thought De La
brousse was a very nervous man, and
in support of Attorney Roche's theory
pf unsCuncness of mind or eccentricity
told how De Labrousse would walk en-
Market street with head up and chest
OUT as though "he were some one of
Importance" He was quickly agita-
ted, said Hynes. and had he not been
in favor with the head of the concern
would not have been kept at the City
of Paris owing to his treatment of Gus
toners. He showed temper, said
Hynes, and complaints from customers
