special dispatch to rhs c.lL

SAN RAFAEL. April 2s.-rhree
guards were discharged by Warden
Tompkins yesterday. Their dismissal
gave rise TO the rumors that they were
dropped from the rolls because OF
their refusal TO enter the prison walls
without arms. Some said that they
were discharged for smuggling opium
into the prison. The Warden refused
to divuIge the identity OF the dis
charged men. He stated. however,
that they were discharged for in
subordination. It has been learned
that the men discharged were Ben
jamin Merritt, D. E Wiley and Fred
erick Hall
Wiley and Hall were ordered by the
Warden TO subject John Bush, sec
ond-termer from San Francisco, to
punishment in the straitjacket for
attempting to escape from one Of the
incorrigible cells. The guards refused
because the work was distasteful TO
them, and for their refusal TO do it
they were discharged
Guard Merritt has been on watch
over the incorrigibles- The Warden
felt that guards detailed on that watch
should sleep in quarters near the in
corrigtble cells, where they could be
within call in the event OF an out
break. Merritt is a man Of family
and he has been sleeping at his home
outside the walls. He refused to take
his quarters in the prison The War
den then offered him another post.
but Merritt refused to accept the new
position and left the prison employ.
The incorrigibles have been particu-
larly unruly OF late. Jack Ortega,
John Bush, Harry Brown, con-
demned man from Del Norte County;
Harry Hammill. George Hyde, Arthur
Odell Robert Garner and Bert Short
for a time were the disturbing ele-
ment. They sl.rieked. howled. cursed
and kicked the doors of the cells.
Threats had no effect on them. Finally
the Warden had them transported to
the stone front cells in the yard and
threatened to play the big prison hose
upon them if they did not behave.
This had the desired effect.

SAN LEANDRO, April 2S.-The
electrical display will be the big fea-
ture of the Odd Fellows celebration
in this city tomorrow night. Never
before has any city in Alameda Coun-
ty, outside of Oakland, attempted any
thing of this kind, and the citizens of
San Leandro have done creditable
work. The plaza will be surrounded
with double rows of lights, while
streamers will fall from the big flag
pole, making a regular court of honor.
All of the Odd Fellows signs have
been outlined in lights around town
and the streets through which the par
ade will move have been hung with
rows of bulbs.
Two tents have been erected, one
for a dining hall and the other for
cooking purposes, and hundreds of
pounds of barbecued meats, salads,
coffee, cakes, etc, will be served.
There will be parade of the visit
ing Odd Fellows, which will include
every lodge in Alameda County, with
the military branches and the Re-
bekahs. After the parade there will
be ball and a reception in the local
Odd Fellows Hall. The event will
conclude with degree work that will
last all night, to be conducted in st.
Joseph's Hall and the Town Hall.

FIRST WITNESS IN KoEHN TRIAL.

OAKLAND, April 2S.-The first tes-
timony in the trial of Lena Koehn for
the murder of her husband, Edward
Koehn, was adduced before the jury
to-day when Charles Kruger told of
seeing the defendant run from her
house clutching a smoking revolver
in her hand. She proceeded to the
board fence separating the Kruger
and Koehn homes, slipped loose
board from its place and passed
through and entered the Kruger
home. Fearful that she was intent on
doing harm, Kruger shouted to his
wife to run, but she did not under
stand what he said. Mrs. Koehn was
afterward found in the front room of
their house and she then told them
that she had killed her husband in
self-defense.
Kruger said that it was 9:15 o'clock
Sunday morning, February IL, when
several shots fired in the Koehn house
startled him while he was digging in
his garden, and a minute later he saw
After hearing her story he consulted
with some of his neighbors and they
summoned a policeman. All went into
the Koehn house and found the VIC
tim dead. He was lying partly in a
closet with his feet and legs out of
the door. The hearing Of. the case
was not taken up until this afternoon
and after Kruger told his story an
adjournment was taken to Monday
morning
