WEALTHY HEED MINER
TELLS HIS STORY
CARBON SHEETS POISON.
TWO SAN FRANCISCO MEN
SOUGHT TO STEAL HIS
FORTUNE.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 3.-The
ftory of James Goodwin, the wealthy
aged miner, whom Sidney Danby and
Jay O'Loane are accused of conspir
ing to murder for his fortune, that
the two men raised checks on him
has keen substantiated by Dr. John,
S- Potts. According to Dr. Potts he
was called to attend Goodwin on
February 10. He found the old miner
in a delirious condition due to over
indulgence in alcoholic stimulants.
Dr. Potts treated the man until Feb
ruary I, on which date he became
thoroughly rational. While in this
condition Goodwin told the physi
cian that O'Loane and Danby had
raised checks which he had given
them from $25 to $2,500 and from $10
to $100. He also informed Dr. Potts
that he was convinced that the two
men were keeping him drunk to ob
tain his money. Goodwin "was practi
cally a physical wreck when he was
brought down to police headquarters
c!rrHav. He looked at the docu-
Bents presented to him by the de
tectives and said:
"Yes that is my signature all right
I have been drunk for a long time. I
sort of had an idea that these fel
lows were trying to get me to do
something, but I could not figure out
just what it was."
Sergeant Bonner asked him if he
signed away his rights willingly.
"Do you thing I am a fool?" he an
swered. "Why should I give away all
I have worked so hard for to these
men? No, by the eternal, I was
drunk and did not know what I was
doing."
When Mrs. O'Loane was placed
under arrest the first words she ut
tered were:
"Tell me, is the old man dead? Is
he dead?"
, The detectives do not expect to
find enough evidence to hold the
woman, but they expect to obtain
some valuable evidence from her be
fore she is released.
California Typewriter Girl Made Sick
j By Handling Paper.
I OAKLAND, Cal.. March 3.-Suf-
. fering agonies from the poison which
' she contracted from handling type
writer carbon paper while she was a
clerk in the Alameda County hall of
! records, Miss Elizabeth N. Rowe is
'facing possible invalidism for life at
! her home in Reno, New For five
J months the girl suffered the ravages
of a disease which the doctors were
unable to diagnose. Finally a doctor
who had learned the nature of her
work declared that she was suffering
from poisoning caused by handling
carbon sheets. Dr. O. D. Hanlin, chief
surgeon of the County Hospital,
agrees with the Nevada specialist
that the poison can be communicated
by the manifold paper used by typ
ists. The severity of Miss Rowe's
case makes it exceptionally interest
ing and at the next meeting of the
Alameda County Medical Association
it will be discussed.
All of the physicians have heard of
the case agree that users of the man
ifold paper should be very 'careful
not to get the coloring matter in the
throat or eves.
NOT REVISE CONSTITUTION.
OLYMPIA. March 3.-The Senate
today indefinitely postponed the bill
fixing eight hours as a day's work for

passed an act forbidding marriage of
habitual criminals, imbeciles or per
sons who have theretofore been af
flicted with heritary insanity. The
local option measure went over in the
House until tomorrow.

DETECTIVES SWARM.
CHICAGO, March 3- Private de
tectives swarm through the corri
dors of the federal building during
the hearing of the Standard Oil case
and some of them even penetrate in
to Judge Anderson's courtroom, sta
tioning themselves more or less in
conspicuously around the room. Each
professional spotter has a particular
person upon whom he is supposed to
keep tab all the time, and the conse
quence is that there is hardly con
nected with the case who is not al
most constantly "shadowed."
Near Death In Big Pond.
It was a thrilling experience to
Mrs. Ida Soper to face death. "For

I was incurable. Then Dr. King's
New Discovery brought quick relief
and a cure so permanent that I have
not been troubled in 12 years." Mrs.
Soper lives in Big Pond, Pa. It

MR. ROOSEVELT'S HUNT.
Luxurious Kit or Hii African Expedi
tion. From London Daily Mail: When
Mr. Roosevelt begins his East Afri
can big-game hunting expedition at
the end of April, hie equipment will
be comprehensive and complete.
Apart from essentials, such' as
tents, guns and nearly 100 cases of
tinned foods, 2 wagons were requir
ed the other day to take to a Lon
don railway station the incidentals of
his kit. Messrs. Lawn and Alder, who
are specialists in such equipment,
have fitted out the expedition.
The ingenuity displayed in devis
ing folding articles for tfft hunter is
remarkable. The President will be
able to sit outside his tent in a por
table verandah that one native bear
er will carry. He will have a collap
sible bathroom; he will bathe in a
folding bath. His wardrobe will fold
up into an extraordinarily small
space. His comfortable easy chair
will fall together into a neat parcel,
like a conjuring trick; tables and or
dinary chairs will do likewise.
His mirrors will fold up. Useful
tools are arranged in small cases,
Even the hunter's reading lamp will
fold up, a,nd canvas water bottles,
when not in use, will "collapse," so
that they may be carried in the pock
et. Beds will fall at a touch into
handy parcels.
The washstand can be folded up so
that it looks like a auitcase.
The President's weapons will in
clude a 12-bore shotgun, mainly to be
used for replenishing the larder; a
small bore rifle for ordinary game,
and a 450-bore high velocity cordite
rifle for elephants and other big
game. He will also carry a revolver,
Incidentals in the equipment of the
Presidents party, which is to include
his son, an expert guide, and two
naturalists will be:
Tape measures, powders and soaps,
field glasses, folding toilet-cases, com
passes, mosquito nets, wading boots,
cameras, sun helmets and soft hats.
