Then Shot Himself-E. L. Jameson's
Awful Deed in San Fran
cisco Home.

San Francisco. Jan. 24.-In cottage
on Stanton street some time today or
during last night, E. L. Jameson
formerly of Portland, Ore. and until
recently billing clerk for ]. X. Armsby
& Co, killed his young wife and shot
himself through the head, inficting a
wound which probably will prove
fatal.
The dead body of Mrs. Jameson and
the unconscious form of her husband
were discovered by the owner of the
house in which they lived. a number
of love letters which had passed be-
tween the couple were found on the
floor. Mrs. Jameson. formerly Georgia
Nelson, was a pretty woman, scarcely
20 years old. Papers left in the house
indicated that she cameI here from
Portland about six months ago, when
she was married Jameson secured en-
ployment, but lost his position a t the
end of last year. He has since tried to
obtain work, but without success.

of this city. TidcOmbe resided in this

Needed Encouraae;ne ut.

Rear Admiral Higgnson. Of the Uni
ted States navy. tells a story illustrat
ing the need OF measure Of brute
force among seamen.
II remember" he says. hearing of
an incident on board OF a ship which
was commanded by a religious captain
who would not allow the mate to use
profane language or violence toward
the crew, and where the work and dis
clpllne was carried on more by moral
snasion than by force. The men did
not jump to the braces or ropes, ana
the general work of the ship was slow.
While at anchor one day in the har-
Dor OF Rio two OF the sailors, leaning
over the rail. were watching work go
ing on on board Of another ship anch-
oret close to them. where the opposite
system prevailed. The air on the ship
was 'lrid with the language of the
mate and the men were treated with a
violence that was far from necessary,
but the work went on quickly. The
sails We're fnrlcd ana the yards braced
IN smart and seaman-like manner.
As they listened to the sulphurous or.
ders OF the mate. one OF the sailors on
the good ship remarked sententiously
TO the other:
Bill, dye see now what it is we
want aboard here? We want a little

COUNTERFEIT MONEY.
How 1t Nearly Wrecked Credit of
South American Government.

The ways of the South American
republic are sure funny exclaimed
an old Slobe-trOtter one day this week,
slancing up from the copy of the Even
ing Star which contained the advices
from New York setting forth the eff
forts OF certain Spanish-A gen
tlcmcn to get the United States to buy
stock in revolutionary movement in
Venezuela.
Those people are plumb crazy on
the subject of revolutions. They seem
TO think they can repair all sorts OF
damaged fortunes through the medium
OF an uprising, and maybe they don't
work at it, And that reminds me of
Il revolution | once had the pleasure Of
being introduced to. which, though it
dhtnt revolute so as you could see it
very plainly, still. was started on the
best possible basis The men iii
charge OF this affair were aiming to
get control of the treasury and terri
tory OF one OF the Central American
States. and they Went about it in a
systematic way. Now. there is but
one thing at the bottom of any Of those
Sudden transterals OF power in our Sis
ter ublics-money. Either one or
ne other side has too much, and the
losing side promptly starts out 70 get
what 1t believes is coming to it. That
is what was done this time, but on a
basis far more sensible than usual.
The insugent element did not have
money enough to start business, and
after much Hopping around to find
ways and means hit upon an ingenious
scheme that came very near wrecking
the home government before shot
was fired. The revolutionary party
needed money anal started out to make
1t literally. The distinguished sons OF
the State who had been chosen to lead
the movement established an office in
New York and began the manufacture
OF spurious coin. The money was
stamped with the trimmings put on
"oins by the regular government and
thousands OF dollars worth OF the
counterieits were lloated before the
proper authorities got next to the
source OF supply. By that time the
credit OF the existing government was
almost wrecked, SO much of the phony
money had been tloated. The plant be-
ing in the United States, the United
states secret service officers We're call
ed upon to ferret it out. and they lost
no time in locating it and bringing to
Justice the principal offenders. Moth.
ing much was done to the revolutions
lists, though the breaking up OF their
counterfeiting plant nipped the revo-
! in the bud, but the home gov
eminent never has established its
credit on as firm a basis as it had be.
fore the cOunterfeits were made'-
