WEDNEDAY ....:JAN. 10, 1900 =— DIED IN THE NIGHT. ~ A Former Nevada Cityan Passes Away at Santa Rosa Last Saturday. The Santa Rosa Press Democrat of last Sunday says: ; Bernard Hottinger, well. known in this city, passed away at his home on Santa Rosa avenue Saturday night a few moments before 12 o’clock. For over three weeks he had been confined to his bed with typhoid pneumonia and since Saturday morning it bad been known that death was near. Mr,-Hottinger was a good cit! zen and an honest man. He was a native of Germany and was sixty years of age. \With his family he came to Santa Rosa lsixteen years ago from Nevada City where he had been engaged in mining. He leaves a wife and ten children, in addition to which two sons preceded him to the other shere, At one time Mr. Hottinger was a di_rector in the South Park Street Railway company, and he was an active promoter of that enterprise. The following are the members of the family left in addition to his. faithful _ wife to mourn his loss : Mrs. Alice: Peters of Amador City, Bernard F. Hottinger, Charles A., Eugene S.,:Rosa L, Josie C., Gertic, Fred Margaret and Ernest Hottinger. Another son, Louis, an apprentice in the navy, was drowned: at Mare Island last. February, and ‘still another, James, died in this city about ten years ago.ae pe Gone to the Sulphur. Mine. “Mareus M. Baruh left on the noon train today to take charge of a sulphur mine in Humboldt county; Navada. Mr. Baruh and some friends recently bcnded the mine aod are now preparing to opera'e’ it on a large scale, the machinery and other supplies necessary having already been shipped from Sao Francisco. J.B. Miller of French Uorral, who is well known here, has been appointed foreman of the mine. It the enterprise proves to be what everything now indicates, it will be of very much importance as the new paper mill at Fioriston would demand all they could obtain. Besides it is the only sulphur deposit known in the United States vhich when it is importei sells for $:4 per ton. It is thought that Mr. Baruh and his friends can furnish it with a good profit at less than this figure. eae A Brakeman Serious\y Hurt. Monday night a brakeman named A.D. Chloupek, in the employment of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, fell from the top of a freight train at Gold Rur, on the Central Pacific Railroad, aud was, seriously injured. Chiouyek’s left arm was broken in two places. His foot was so badly mashed that the surgeons found it necessary to amputate the foot when the man was taken to the Railroad Hospital in Sac; ramento yesterday. An Intellectual Effort. “Non’t interrupt the,-please,” said Senator Sorghum to the young man who had slammed the door. “I beg your pardon.” “Don't keep talking about it, either,” was the irritable rejoinder. “I’m engaged on making a joke.

There was a surprise in the Superior Court this morning when William G. Thomas, charged with resisting an officer, pleaded not guilty. It had been understood that he would plead guilty and-throw himself on the mercy of the Court. Before the prisoner was arraigned John R. Tyrrell, who had been acting as his attorney since his arrest, arose and said that he desired permission to retire from the case. “The defendant and I disagree as to the procedure to be followed,” said the lawyer, “and I. therefore ask to be permitted to sever my connection with the matter.” District Attorney Power suggested that in event it became necessary for the Judge toappoint a lawyer to defend the accused, Mr. Tyrrell, who had appeared at the preliminary hearing and was familiar with all the circumstances and the evidence, would doubtless be better qualified to serve in that capacity than any other lawyer. Judge Nilon said he had already shown considerable leniency in postponing the arraignment. Mr. Tyrrell’s request to retire would be taken under advisement till a later date, and ia the meantime that gentleman would please. continue to serve as. the defendant’s lawyer. Judge Nilov then ‘asked hiaman to arise and plead. “T plead not guilty, your honor,” said Thomas. The case was then set. for trial on on Tuesday, February 6th. Itis urderstood that Thomas claims his scandalous conduct on the night of the arrest was due to “knockout drops” having been administered to him in ‘he liquor he drank. He says the drug set him crazy and he did not kuow what he was doing when he attacked Marshal Deeble as the latter was taking him to jail. WRECKED BY COFFEE. Heart.Failore Caused by the Seductive Cup. “IT have been a great coffee drinker f>r several years. For a long time I thought I could not eat without coffee. “Have been troubled with my stomach, neryes and heart: The worse I felt, the less I ate, and the more coffee Idrank. “I have taken many different kinds; of medicines, but could not secure any lasting benefit. Up to eight weeks ago I had but few well days in the preceding two years. I could not do ordinary housework, except with great care, because of heart failure. “I met a friend who said she conld not drink coffee because -it affected her heart so. I thought perhaps coffee might. be the cause of most of my troubles, and so I qdit the use of it about. eight weeks ago and took up Postum Food Coffee. I have not taken any medicine, and I have .gained so fast that itis a surprise.to my friends as wellasto myself. I can eat, sleep and work, and do not have any bad spells with my heart at all. I have been wanting to tell people what a-relief it is, since I left off coffee and used Postum Food Coffee. I want the fact published that it may relieve some ,oor, weak, nervous woman.” Emma Pille, South Wabash, Ind. Anything in Sight. On Saturday last in Santa Cruz attorneys for the city in the bond . case presented claims for services amounting to $25,000. The City Council cut down the fees $15,000 and the attorneys accepted. Of course they did. Nodoubt they expected no more. If they bad presented a bill for $10,000. it would have been cut to $5000 or perhaps $35 0. Courts and Councils, in such matters, are a good deal like the deaf old lady whoentered a dry goods store and asked the price of some silk. “Four dollars a yard,” said the salesman, “Fourteen dollars !” cried the old lady ; “I will give youten.” “Four dollars, madam,” said the clerk. “Oh,” said the old lady; “J won’t pay more than three.” On Every Bottle Of Shiloh’s Consumption Cure is this guarantee: “All weask of you is to use two-thirds of the contents of this bottle faithfully, then if you can say you are not benefitted return the bottle to your Druggist and he may refund the price paid.” Price 25 cts. 50 cts. and $1.00.

Miner of Nov. 22 says of the Nashville Students who will play here on Wednesday and —— evenings of next week : “If an estimate of a performsnos can be made from the applause with which it-is received, it can be safely said that the Nashville Students last night gave an excellent entertainment at the opera house. The house was crowded and the applause at various intervals was of an uproarious nature that demanded two or three encores. It was a pleasing pot pourri of negro melody and mirth, was perhaps the best, but it was all good and some better. The voices negro melodies were never heard to better advantage in Nelson.. _“The male quartette gave some hubrought down the house: One of the most pleasing solos was that of Miss voice in more than one selection, “Tonight a ‘genuine rag-time opera comedy’ is promised, and ‘if last night’s
eoncert can be tuken as a. criterion there will be an évening of solid enjoyment. ‘The cake walk, which proved a popular feature last night, will be given devide the disposal of the cake.” Eee His Faith Rewarded, George had wanted a bicyele for a long time. _Last year his birthday was embittesed by the fact that he did not get the much-coveted wheel, and so he awaited the day this time with much anxiety, During the week before he regularly and earnestly resorted to prayer that he might have his desire granted. His parents really feared for his—faith should he be disappointed, Therefore on the morning of his birthday he found awaiting him by his bedside a beautiful new wheel. “Well,” he called out cheerfully, “I thought the Lord wouldn’t have the nerve to refuse me this time.”—Current Literature. A Great Lesson. “Johnnie,” said his father, “I’m surprised to hear that you have dared to dispute with your mother.” “But she. was wrong, pa,” replied Johnnie. “That has nothing to do with it,” said the old man. ' “You might just as well profit by my experience and learn, once for all, that when-a woman says a thing is so, it is so, whether it is so or not.”— — ee _ Young Mothers.
