"Babe" Garvin failed to ap Ksr
before Recorder BenJ. M. Collius
yeaterday morning, and the-e'j)
bangs a tale. Garvin is a large nun
and that la evidently what galne-1
Dim the name of "Babe." He Is a
miner and worka out la the vicinity
of Phoenix when be la not celejrht
ing in Medford, which happened to
be the case Monday night.
Garvla arrived In town Mjnday
w on and lost no time In hunting up
few friends In order to get l lien
to keep him company, and then pro
ceeded to fill up on a certain brand
of wbisky known as "Fighting," and
soon after was declaring that he
could lick his weight In wildcats.
John Find lay took exception to
Garvin's remarks and right then was
sorry that he spoke, for when he
recovered from the cyclone which
struck him he had hia eyea in mourn
Ink and looked as If he had been run
through a threshing machine. After
that Garvin waa given a wide berth
and walked up and down opposite
the depot with a chip on his shoul
der and offering $5 to any one who
would do him the favor of knocking
it off.
Yesterday morning Chief of Po
lice Shearer heard of the doings and
lost no time in gathering the "Babe"
in. Most of the fight was out of him
by that time and he begged hard to
be allowed to go to his home in the
hills. The chief finally allowed him
to stay out until the court opened
by making a deposit of $10. He
did so, and the last seen of him was
when he was hiking up the track as
if his life depended on the time he
made.
Hugh Martin was on deck when
his name was called, and after ad
mitting that he was in a bad state
of Intoxication the night before, pro
ceeded to tell his little story. It
appears that he arrived in this
bustling city a few weeks nso He
.was a stranger and they took him
in. His roll of hard-earned rnoiuy
ccm-istcd of the sum of $13 ud
now he was without a single cent.
Chief Shearer escorted him around
ti where he had blown most of It
In and Martin pleaded with thetn to
I'tlt up the amount of his fine. And
they did so nit.
Recorder Collins thought the man
had a good enough lesson to last
him for a while, any way, and al
lower him his liberty on condition
of making the usual promise, which.
sad to relate, is broken once in
while.
KILLKD IN COLLISION.
BAN FRANCI8CO, Cal.. Sept. .
Phillip M. Lllllenthal, president of
the Anglo-California bank of this
city, and one of the most prominent
financiers of the Pacific coast, died
here this evening from Injuries re
ceived when an automobile In which
he was returning from the Gans-Nel-son
fight collided with a horse and
cart.
The banker, who Is an ex
tremely heavy man, either jumped
from the machine when he saw the
collision was coming or waa hurled
to the ground by the audden stop
ping of the car, striking on his head
ard shoulders. One side of his head
was found to be terribly crushed
a ben be was picked-up, and Severn
ribs had been fractured by the force
of bis fall. He died In the car on
the way to the hospital.
Mr. Lllllenthal attended the fight
in company with Gregory Wllenkin.
an agent at Washington of the Rus
sian government during the Russo
Japanese war, and Ignace War.
schansky of St. Petersburg. On his
return from the arena while the ?jr
waa making good speed the chauf
feur decided to turn down a cross
street leading directly to the hea-t
of the city.
As he swung the car around
the corner a young horse at
tached to a heavy sulky was coming
from the opposite direction and be
came frightened and pranced in
front of the car. The chauffeur
brought the machine suddenly to a
stop, but not quickly enough to avoid
collision, and the horse was pll-Ml
on the fenders of the automobile.
Chauffeur Wllenkin and Warschan-
sky Jumped out at once and helped
the driver to get the suslky righted
and the animal on its feet. It was
after this had been done that Lillien
thal's absence was noticed. On look
ing around bis friends discocered the
banker lying In the road some 15 feet
from the machine, unconscious and
with his face and head covered with
blood. The Injured man was hastily
placed In the automobile and all
speed made to the nearest hospital,
but Lllllenthan expired during the
Journey.
RATHER HIE THAN STUDY.
Ell ItOIIINHO.V. THE I'Kllltl.EK.
Ed Robinson, who follows the ex
alted profession of a peddler, labors
under the Impression that he baa a
kirk coming, and claims that when
he gets to be worth a million dol
lars he will have every policeman
In Medford fired from the force. Of
course all his trouble was brought
upon by the officers of the law. It
Is the same in almost every case of
the kind, and according to the stor
ies told by those who are arrested,
the police go about like roaring
Hons, seeking whom they may de
vour. "No rogue e'er felt the halter draw
With a good opinion of the law."
Ed Robinson drives around with
a team consisting of a mule and an
other animal which he calls a horse,
but In all fairness tt must be record
ed that he treats his team well. This
was the case yesterday when he de
cided to let them have a real good
rest. The trouble waa that he se
lected for the resting place the cor
ner of 8eventh and Central streets,
and by so doing hlorkaded the cross
ings. Chief of Police Shearer pock
eted his pride and drove the team
and the occupant of the wagon to the
police station. Hero ho unloaded his
load with the load and then put the
team up at a livery stable.
When brought before Recorder
BenJ. M. Collins, Ed stated that he
was not drunk. "Perish such a
thought." he dramatically exclaimed,
as he held one hand on his heart and
waved the other aloft. "No, your
honor. I was Just sick at my stom
ach: that was all, and If yon don't
believe It I will prove It by my
team."
Tnking Into consideration the fart
thai the team aforesaid assisted
somewhat In the arrest, the recorder
let the old man off with a fine of
$.". lie paid part and agreed to pay
the remainder on the Installment
plan.
8POKANE, Wash., Sept. .
Rather than go to school, Wlnirred
Thayer, a 14-year-old schoolboy,
shot himself with suicidal Intent, us
ing a small-caliber rifle. The stock
of the gun had been sawed off, ap
parently with the purpose of mak
ing the weapon handler In the deed
of self-destruction.
This is the note his mother, who
lives on Knox avenue. In Spokane,
found yesterday morning shortly af
ter 8 o'clock:
"Mother I do not want to go to
school, so I am going to shoot my
self. I am too bashful to go to
school. I would rather get a job
and go to work. WINIFRED."
His mother summoned a physi
cian, and after the bullet had been
extracted the hoy said to the phy
sician: "I did It on purpose, and I
do not want to get well."
The bullet entered the body a
trifle below the heart, was deflected
downward and backward toward the
spine, and lodged under the skin of
the back.
The chances for the boy's recov
ery are good.
MEETS DEATH THE SAME WAV.
NEW YORK, Sept. 9. Two wo
men, one grieving over the death of
her favorite son, the other despond
ent because of Illness, leaped to
death yesterday from windows In
their homes. Mrs. Mary Ann Relsch
Jumped from the dining-room win
dow and suffered Injuries from
which she died shortly afterward.
Her son. Joseph, aged 25, was
drowned while on his vacation about
two weeks ago, and since that time
the mother had been Inconsolable
over his loss. Although she was
constantly watched, she finally elud
ed the vigilance of her family and
ended her life.
The other suicide was Miss Lil
lian Reynolds, aged CO years, for
many years assistant matron at the
Messiah Home, In West Chester. She
hurled herself from a fourth-floor
window of an apartment house In
East Seventeenth street and was In
stantly killed. For years Miss Rey
nolds had Buffered from nervous
troubles.
What must we expert when at
good an authority as the Chicago
News says: "If anybody else writes a
novel on Chicago society, let us hope
It will deal with the deodorized
kind."
