The farss food Of the day.

Every man, woman and child begins
the day with more or less vigor of mind
and strength of body according to the
first food supplied 10 the stomach. The
best frst dish of the day Is bowl of
Quaker Oats. The stomach can assimi-
late Il more quickly and with less effort
than other foods. There Is little or no
waste and every ounce of food is con-
verted into muscle, vigor and braiE
activity. The strongest people in the
world are the regular eaters of Quaker
Osts. You should eat It for breakfast
every day.
II you are convenient to the store
you'll probably buy the regular sis'
package. For those who i've in tbs
country the large sise family package
Is more satisfactory.

MUTTERING PRAYERS
FALLON Is HANGED
Murderer of Wife Makes Fer
vent Appeal for His Soul
From GallOWs

SAN QUENTIN, Jan. 8.-"Sacred
heart of Jesus have mercy on my SOUL"
With these words ringing clear from
his ,colorless lips, Thomas Fallon, con-
victed of shooting his wife to death,
dropped through the gallows trap this
morning and expiated his crime with
his life. Twelve minutes later the
attending physicians took their stetho-
scopes from the stilled breast and de-
clared Fallon dead.
The death march commenced prompt
ly at 10 o'clock with Father Walsh in
the lead. As Fallon staggered up the
13 steps of the gallows he was praying
audibly. He stepped upon the trap and
then deliberately faced the hangman.
With utmost calmness he raised his
head and looked at the moose. An in
slant later the rope was around his
neck and the black capped figure shot
through the aperture.
Until last evening Fallon held to the
hope that the governor would commute
his sentence to life imprisonment. That
hope was lost last night, however, when
Warden Hoyle received a communica- :
tion from the governor giving his rea-
sons for not interceding with the court
judgment. In the letter the governor
said that according to the testimony
Fallon knew what he was about. and
his intentions were deliberate when he
killed his wife in San Francisco in
1904.

STEALS FOR WOMAN
WHO DESERTS HIM
Criminal Career of Hamilton
Renton Inspired by Love
for Widow

OAKLAND, Jan. s.-That the criInl-
nal career Of Hamilton Renton, scion of
a respected Oakland family, was in
spired by his love for a woman is the
assertion of the police. Renton's ar
rest was brought about through his
overstrenuous efforts to locate the
faithless object of his alteration, Mrs.
Tilted him when the news of his mis-
deeds became noised about among her
acquaintances.
Until month ago Renton and Mrs.
McAllister occupied apartments to-
gether at 412 Hayes street, San Fran
cisco. where Mrs. McAllister was known
as Mrs. Renton. Renton was in the
habit Of presenting his consort with
clothing and fnery, which he told her
he had stolen, and she shared his
confidence with a number of her inti-
mate friends. Thanks giving day the
couple quarreled and Mrs. McAllister
left Renton and went to Marysville
without telling him of her destination.
In attempting to find out where she
had gone Renton telephoned to .her
friend, Mrs. Alice Granjean, of 469
Thirty-siXth street. in this city, and
ms language was SO ABUSIVE IndI 01fS.
Granjean caused his arrest on charge
of disturbing the peace. While he was
awaiting trial on this charge detectives
connected him with the burglary OF the
millinery store Of ii. Leighton, 107 San
Pablo avenue.
Renton confessed his guilt and told
the police that he had stolen $500 worth
of plumes, silks and ribbons. Part of
the booty he presented to Mrs. McAllis-
ter and part to his landlady, Mrs.
Richardson. IN liquidation of his room
rent.
Renton will be arraigned in the police
court tomorrow. He is a son of II. T.
Renton. The young man has been in
trouble with the police on several oc-
casions. An alleged accomplice. Edward
Harrison, also is under arrest in this
city, and the police suspect that he
and Renton robbed stores on both sides
of the bay.

FALLS UNDER TRAIN
Albert Woodward, Section Boss,
Slips in Jumping From Car
and Is Crushed

SAUSALITO, Jan. S.-But for the
quick wit of Brakeman ]. Sullivan on
the 80 electric for San Francisco from
San Rafael, Albert Woodward. section
boss on the railroad would have been
horribly mangled.
Woodward. accompanied by his Sec
ton hands, boarded the train at Lark
spur bound for Mill Valley junction.
where repairs were being made to the
roadbed. AS the train moved into the
junction 1t was travelling at 10 miles
an hour. Without a thought Of the
slippery platform. Woodward Jumped.
The man lost his foothold and fell under
the cars. AS he rolled under his body

into the middle of the track
Sullivan, who was looking out of the
baggage car door, saw Woodward fall
and he instantly pulled the emergency
air brake and shouted to Engineer J..
Ahearn to stop. In a second the heavy
train was stopped. When Sullivan and

ALIENIST ASSERTS
HAMS is DEMENTED
Witnesses Testify Hains Was
Insane in August

FLUSHING, n. y, Jan. S.-The de-
fense in the trial OF Thornton j. Hains
as a principal with his brother, Captain
Peter c. Hams, for the killing of William
Z. Annis, came to a close this evening
and before court adjourned Justice
Crane told the jurors that they would
be able TO conclude their labors about
the middle Of next week.
A blow from an unexpected quarter
was received by the defense today
when DR. l. Samuel Manson, an alien
list, under cross examination by Prose-
eutor Darrin, declared that Captain
Hains suffered from maniacal Oppressive
insanity last August, an ailment that
would have prevented him from recog-
nizing the face or name Of an enemy. .
The alienist said that in a patient
suffering from such malady all power
was practically lost. Prosecutor Dar-
rim, taking advantage Of the admission
of the defense's alienist, asked him
if his opinion of Captain Hams men
tai condition would be changed if he
knew that the army officer had con-
versed intelligently before and after
the shooting of William L. Annis and
that he recognized his victim as his
boat neared the float. The medical ex-
pert said his opinion remained un-
changed.
DR.. l.. Pierce Clark. another alienist
for the defense, testified that Captain
Hams was insane on August 10 when
the shooting took place. and that he
was insane early in November when the
witness made his last examination.

TEN REASONS WHY
WOMEN SnOULDVOTE
Suffragettes Tell Why Equal
Rights Amendment Should Be
Passed by Legislature

Ten reasons why the legislature of
California should adopt the equal suf-
frage amendment to the constitution
and submit 1T to the voters Of the
state at the next general election were
promulgated by the state central COM
mittee of the suffragettes meeting at
Sacramento yesterday morning.
The arguments follow:
Twelve years have elapsed since the
submission of an equal suffrage
amendment.
2-The voting population of California
has largely increased by many
young men reaching majority, and
by new residents from other states
and countries. and there is no sure
ty that the laws regarding suffrage
represent the sentiment of the
people.
3-Several enlightened nations have
granted suffrage to women, and in
other countries there is a ceaseleSs
and popular agitation.
4-ln those states where women vote
it is a success.
5-California should be the next state
to submit suffrage amendment,
owing to her extent and influence
in the nation, and that she may re-
main a leader in progress and
justice.
8--The submission of the suffrage
amendment has been indorsed by the
leading labor organizations of the
state.
California guarantees the right to
demand the submission of an amend
ments
S-Many state and local organizations
not suffrage societies have indorsed
the submission of an amendment.
9-Public opinion demands the submits
sion of an amendment. as shown by
the active support of ZIG newspapers
in the state of California.
10-For the long work day,
For the taxes we pay,
For the laws we obey
We demand something to say.
At a meeting of the Equal Suffrag
club of Mill Valley yesterday morning
Mrs. j. W. Amrath and Mrs. Sydney
Coulson were appointed a committee
to join the delegation of lobbyists now
at Sacramento, consisting of Mrs. Cof-
fin. Mrs. Mary Sperry. Mrs. Lucia Nee

COMPANY DEPRIVES
RANCHERS OF WATER
Judge Waste Holds Farmers of
PIeasantOn Valley Have Ac-
ton for Damages
Spring Valley Said to Have Car
ried Off Supply Used for
irrigation

OAKLAND, Jan. S.-Ranchers near
Pleasanton, whose lands. it has been
alleged. have been made arid by the
draining Of underground water supplies
by the Spring Valley water company,
have a cause OF action for damages
which can properly be submitted 10
a jury, according TO an opinion given
today by Superior Judge William H.
Waste.
Suits were fled in March, 1906, by
=. r. Lilienthal for $4,000 damages:
by the Pleasanton hop company for
100000. and by George Davis for s35,-
600. against the Spring Valley water
company. An injunction was also de-
,manded.
The complaints alleged that the con-
formation of gravel and heavy clay
strata in Pleasanton valley had re-
suited in the formation of a great un-
derground reservoir at a point where
the valley narrowed sharply into a
canyon. The reservoir was under con-
siderable pressure. so that flowing wells
were possible far up on the slopes
DL W dI6E
these flowing wells and from other
wells where the water rose nearly to
the surface and could be readily
pumped was used for the irrigation
OF ranch lands
The Spring Valley water company
was said to have driven a long tun-
mel IN the bottom Of the valley and
from the floor Of this tunnel to have
sunk numerous deep wells through the
clay stratum to the gravel water bear
sng formation beneath The water was
then carried from the tunnel in pipe
dimes TO San Francisco. where 1t was
'retailed.
The wells on which the ranchers
had depended failed rapidly, It was
claimed. Flowing wells ceased to flow
and the water in the other wells sank
SO far from the surface that 1t be-
came impracticable TO pump it up for
irrigation.
Judge Waste remarked that the law
points involved were those of the rea-
sonahle and correlatiVe rights which
adjoining land owners had 10 a common
benefit In his opinion II is illegal
70 unreasonably damage ones neigh
bors by excessive use Of common priv
tleges, fundamental principle in the
old common law. AS the complaints
charged that this had been done he
held that a cause OF action had been
stated.
Special demurrers 70 the technical
form Of the complaint were sustained
as a matter of precaution in view o.
the extensive interests involved in the
suit The plaintiffs were given 30 days
10 amend their complaint and incor-
porate various suggestions in the in
terests Of greater precision.
since the fling of the suits. which
were drawn by District Attorney Dona-
hue prior TO his accession TO Office, and
Attorney J. 5. Partridge OF San Fran
cisco George Davis has died. His
rights in the litigation have passed tc
I.ilienthal and TO the Alameda sugar
company.
The outcome Of the suit is awaited
with great interest throughout the
Livermore and Pleasanton valleys and
in Niles canyon, where similar com
piaints have been made against the
water company.

SAN JOSE, Jan. S.-Denying a mo-

morning sentenced Dominguez Vierra,
convicted by a jury on November 21
OF the murder of Frank Medina on
July "A, 1908, to serve 15 years in
Folsom. The defendants attorneys
moved for new trial on the grounds
that the court had misdirected the jury
in matter of law and that the court
erred in the decision of questions of
law arising during the course of trial
and that the jury, because they re-
turned verdict of murder in The sec
ond degree, entertained a doubt as to
the mans guilt
