and another man were walking along
the read near the Mexican settlement.
Rohis was sober and was lending a
helping hand to his companion who
was not sober. They were met by an
express wagon driven by Alexander
Mullen. Rohis was struck by the wa gon

Santa Rosa, San Jose and other Of the
smaller towns which suffered from the
earthquake, asking whether funds are

days ago received a 'facer" A we'll
meaning lady in swell part of the
city notified the committee that she
had quantity of very good clothing
which they could have by sending fol-

for the gift. When the clothing ar
rived at the rooms the committee could
hardly resist the temptation to send
the entire outfit back, and would have
