TAPS WITH 4 HATCHET
INTRUDER IN HIS HOME

With a crispness and brevity of die
ton that partook of the passages Rof
the Old Testament, Gust Newman, a
deaf refugee of Columbia Square, de-
Tended himself successfully in Judge
Wellers department of the Police
Court yesterday morning of the charge
of assault to murder Alfred Buhne, a
young man who it was claimed had
been too friendly with Newmans wife.
In appearance Newman has some
thing of the seer cast of countenance.
His red beard is unkempt and scraggy,
like Bernard Shaw's, his voice is high
pitched, his style lucid and brief. his
humor, unlike that OF his playwright
double. absolutely unconscious.
Judge Weller appointed Attorney Ft
G.. Drury to defend the man, and after
Buhne had told his version of the as
sault, which occurred on February 23
In Newmans little green cottage, the
defendant was placed on the stand.
His deafness made him invulnerable to
Interruptions.
Il went home that night. I found
four men In the house, drinking with
my wife, and they were all tipsy. 1
ordered them out, but they would not
go, and / get policeman. I want to
be home with my family one night, but
1t is no use. The policeman make some
or the men go, but this man Buhne
stay. Then l order him to leave, but
he takes his fist and hit me on the
cheek. glancing blow, like this" The
witness punctuated his talk with ges-
lures, ample and illustrative. II see a
hatchet on the ground and I take this
end, not the sharp end, and 1 tap him,
then / tap him a little harder and he
sit down and the bleed come"
Attorney Drury pleaded "unwrit-
ten law" and defense of home as miti-
eating circumstances of the taps
with the hatchet, and the Police Judge
released Newman, who left the court
room with a lordly air, his Bernard
Shaw beard bristling

AUTO OWNERS TAKE OUT
THEIR NEW MOTOR CARS

Automobile owners were out in the
park in numbers yesterday. taking
advantage OF the fine weather The
new 1907 models and the old ones that
have been repainted look exceedingly
attractive in the sunlight. If the pres
ent weather keeps up for a week the
local owners will be able to get through
to Del Monte. This is the objective
point of many of the new owners. They
all want 10 make the trip to the sea.
Frank H. Johnson of San Rafael has
just purchased a big Thomas fiier.
Johnson is one of the earliest enthu-
siasts In the city. He has been trying
out his new car and has sent in the
most fiattering reports to the Pioneer
Automobile Company. from whom he
purchased it.
AS soon as the roads are in con-
dition Johnson will start on a tour
across the continent. He has made sew
eral extensive trips In his automobile,
but this will be the longest one he has
ever attempted. He will go without a
chauffeur. as he feels it will not be a
necessity to take one along. Mrs. John
son and the baby will be the passen-
gers.
L. A. Savage of Reno has purchased
his second Thomas fier.
The Pioneer Automobile Company re-
ports the arrival of a carload of forty
horsepower Thomases, which were un-
loaded yesterday. At the same time q
carload of Wintons came in. All of
these cars are sold.
Three carloads of Oldsmobiles arrived
yesterday and will be unloaded this
morning. All are of the touring car
pattern.
The first automobile show in America
was held September, 1900, at the Wash
ington Park track, Chicago. Practically
all of the makers then doing business
exhibited, and 1T is a curious fact that
of all the exhibitors the Winton Motor
Carriage Company is the only one now
doing business IN the same product, in
the same name, in the same city. and
under the same owners as then. Some
of the exhibitors have fallen by the
wayside. Some changed from steam
and electric to gasoline power. Some
of them changed their names and their
owners or moved from one city to an
other. Another interesting fact is that
Winton cars won every race In which
they started at the show and estab-
lished a long string of records that
stood for several years. This Is a
record of pioneership without parallel.
William R. Ditworth's automobile has
set the pace for motor cars in the
Goldfield, Nevada, mining district. 1t
has been in daily service since April 3,
1906, and has covered a total of 1850
miles. 1t is Winton Model X
Harold Mitchell of Warm Springs.
Montana, while speeding along in his
franklin runabout recently, suddenly
came upon sharp turn which he found
too abrupt to successfully negotiate and
was dashed over a thirty-foo embank-
ment, the car turning complete SOM
ersault and landing. bottom side up.
twenty feet from where 1t left the
road only TO keep on running, much to
the surprise or those who accompanied
the car on it's acrobatic feat.

John G.. Capers to be commits
sioner of internal revenue, the
position he has been acceptably
filing for several months past,
but the confirmation was held up,
just why; nobody knows, as no
definite charges have been made
against him. Capers lost the
district attorneyship by a foul
deal. The president was misled
and at the first opportunity gave
to Capers a practical demonstra.

TuLNAS A MARX FOR cARTooEIsT.

The recent attempt of Senator
Tillman to get into the lime light
by Offering a resolution relating
to Secretary Cortelyou's &C.
tion in giving government
relief to the distressed fnan.
cial condition of the coun-
try, has made him the mark
of ridicule for cartoonists, and
properly so, because the senator
knows as much about finance, as
he does about chinese as his
speech defending his resolution
of inquiry plainly shows, and
which he admits, yet at thesame
time, being confessedly ignorant
of such matters, the financial
subject is being discussed all
over the country, it was attract
ing even more attention than the
movement of the Pacific feet,
the temptation for self advertis-
ing could not be resisted, and he
butts in, with the hope of keep
ing himself in public sight, re-
eardless of results. According
to the best fnancia! thought of
thecountry Secretary Cortelyou
did;the right thing in bringing the
aid of the government to prevent
an impending crisis, but politl-
clans of the Tillman and Jefries
Davis stripe, are after making
an issue which will appeal to the
ignorant prejudice of an unthink-

YOU feel TINT it is not in good order as
is evidenced by mean headaches, nerV-

There is nothing better offered the

This is a scientific preparation OF nat

learned to love religion that
demands effort and calls for sac
rifce. He has been the guide OF
tempted youth, the strength of
the lonely, and the last bright
hope and solace of departing age.
All precious, all glorious in
the name Of Christ, our divine
redeemer and our Lord.
While splendid kingdoms of
the East, the gloom of whose
glory encircled the earth, have
crumbled, like their cities, which
the curious traveller explores,
buried in the sands of the desert
while the glories of Greece, its
cities, its temples and sculptures
are broken into common dust be-
meath the mordant teeth of time
while the beautiful Hypathia IS
only a memory preserved oy
Gibbon and guided by kings
ly while ancient arts nave oeen
lost and won in the tidal flow OF
centuries and while nations have
come and gone, the name Of
christ has won fresh triumphs
as time has flung new centuries
from his mighty balance wheel.
And that name still lifts the
soul to heaven where christian
hope would climb, and faith in
earnest watching gaze.
Christ shall be the ideal Of hu.
manity in every breathing after
goodness, in every longing hope
for theaven, inlevery hallowing
emoion.
Wherever Christ has come in
very truth he has transfgured
human life and revealed to ador-
ing eyes an immortal destiny, he
has pervaded the hearts and
homes of Christendom, Christ
mas is the season of gladness and
Joy as well as of gratitude and
memory.
