IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA PASADENA. F. Mill! Oommlta Bnlolde by Taking; Carbolic Mad Caee. Pasadena, July evening about 9 o'clock Horace F. Mills wae discovered lying under aome email shrubbery on Mr.

Reed's corner Colorado street aud Orange Grove, in a dyiug condition. He waa suffering greatly, moaning so that he could be beard ior some distance. The noise attracted one ol the men who works about tho place. Finding the man in a bad way word was at once sent down town and Officer Galtman notified, who went up with a conveyance and brought the man into town, taking him to the jail. Meanwhile Dr.

McAllister was notified and at once upon hia arrival pronounced it a bad caae of poisoning. Everything possible was done for tbe Bufferer, but owing to the poison taken, carbolic acid, but little relief could be offered. From letters in his pocket it was learned that he lived at Vi'J Mary Btreet, at a boarding-house kept by Mr. and Mrs. Hubbard, whither he wns removed, remaining until death came to his relief at 2 o'clock this afternoon.

His Buffering daring the whole time waa something terrible, the action of the acid being of a slow but deadly nature, burning into the flesh. What could have induced deceased to end hia life in such a horrible manner remains a mystery, although it is supposed that general despondency on account of poor health wbb the chief cause. The people at the boarding house state that he had never spoken of snioide but that he waa lound in a stupor a iew mornings ago, which is now believed to have beau the result of an attempt to take his life by chloral. At the place wiiere he was firat discovered an empty ounce bottle of carbolic acid was found, proving conclusively that thia the cause of his death. c'nia uiny UOOU in I'anauiun about tour mouths, coming here from Minneapolis, where bis family resides, on account of bis health.

He was in good financial condition, it is understood, owning considerable property in the east. Mrs. Milla has been expected to arrive from the east for some time, but has been detained by the strike and business affairs. Tbe delay iv her arrival may have preyed upon the mind oi ber husband. Coroner Cates was notified tbis afternoon and came up late this evening to hold the inquest.

Tbe remains are lying in the undertaking parlors of Koynolds it VanNuys awaiting instructions from the east, inlormation of the death having been wired this afternoon. A RAPID COLLECTOR. Borne excitement was caused on East Colorado street this afternoon by a lively fracas which resulted in a too vigorous bill collector being hauled up beiore Recorder Rossiter and fined $15, with the alternative of 15 days in the couuty jail. It seems that a young man named Calvin claimed that Frank Shaw owed him $1, which debt Shaw disclaimed. When the two young fellows met, Calvin started in to get Ins money by going through Shaw's pockets, which proceedings were decidedly objected to, resulting in a big tight, in which Shaw came out second best with the major part of his shirt aud other garments strewn about the street.

Tbe dicers Btopped the tight and arrested both combatants. Sbaw, however, was released later. SUNDAY SERVICES. J. Habbick will lead the meeting of tbe Young Men's Christian association Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock in Strong's hall.

Ag tbe driver was going along the atreet on his sprinkler a miacliievions young boy threw a stub of a cigar at him, and struck; him near the right pocket. The fire flew over him and net his cushion on fire, which waa readily extinguished.

Nothing further was thought of the matter Until after he had gone a few blocks, when lie thought he smelled something burning. Soon ho felt the tire on bis person, aud on looking down ho iound his trouaera on fire, just ready to blaze. He extinguished the fire with his hands to keep it from his person, and burned his handa aud also his body before he could put it out. He bad to jump Irom bis wagon and get under the sprinkler and let the water on in order to stop tbe flames. For further particulars ask Jim Clark.

B. Dexter, concluded be would have to take a the club's honor at stake. He played as tbe club had never scon bim play before, but still was not in it.

Hat They Were Forgivr-n For His Fine Aft- CT Dinni Speech. Tho gonial old philanthropist, Horace Greeley, weist to New Orleans after the south hail taken him to hor heart in grp.ttful recognition of bin action in go ing ou the Jeff Davis bail bond, and the people were anxious to idiow him every attouliui in their power. A dinner Boomed to bo tho propei thing, and the markets of Now Orleans, than which thero aro few better in th world, were ransacked to moke the occasion as notablo for its viands as tat tho distinction of the guotit and thedii: ers. Juugo Walker, the veteran odito: of Tho Picaynno, presided. He was great gorrnand, and aftor tho rnanne; Of gormands wished nouo of tho floe points of tho dinner to be lost to th guest for lack of commentary.

"Mr. Greelay," said he, "these oys tcre aro tho best that coino to our mar ket, and wo think thoy vio with thos( of Norfolk. I observe that you aro not eating them." "Well, no, "replied Greeley. "Tin truth is I never conld abide shellfish. And he passed.

Then came some delicious green turtle soup, which Judge Walker explained was prepared from the finest! fat turtle tho Florida bays could afford. "No doubt, no doubt," was the reply in Greeley' fl peculiar whine, "but cold blooded animals aro an abomination to me." Tho pompano, imperial fish that it is, nnd fresh from tho gulf, was open to tho samo objection, despite Judge Walker's eulogy, and that, too, was passed. Mr. Greeley barely tasted tho accompanying Parisian dainty and shook his head ruefully at tho idoa that anybody would impair his digestion by eating encumbers. Shrimp salad, another New Orleans delicacy, proved no more tempting.

Shrimps, he said, looked so much liko worms that they always give him tho creeps. "Ah, hero is something you will like homely dish in name," said Judge Walker, "bnt fit for tho gods. It is a Galicia ham. And then he went ou to tell how tho hogs from which these hams wero obtained wero fed only on chestnuts, making the fiesh luscious delicious. "Perhaps so, very interesting indeed, observed Greeley, but do you know, judge, that there is so much talk of trichina nowadays that I wouldn't daro tasto a bit of pork." The judge gavo up in despair.

The only things in all the array of dainties whioh had been provided which Mr. Greeley would eat ero bread, potatoes and cauliflower, and ho feared that he might be overloading his stomach at that. But when it camo to tho speaking, although ho had drunk nothing but cold water, he spoko as ono inspired and with a fervor, eloquence and tenderness that nobody at the table could ever luter Ocean. INVESTIGATING AN ACCIDENT. The Railroad Fnzineor Out of Trouble For Too Superintendent Warron of the Eastern Illinois railway was telling tho other evening of it certain engineer in the employ of tho road who had been repeatedly cautioned against running too fast Ho was running a freight train, and ou one portion of his division there was a steep hill.

His orders were to never permit his train to go down that hill faster than 15 miles an hour, but it was general belief that whenever ho had a safe opportunity ho sailed down that grado just as fast as tho wheels would turn. One day he did go down tho hill so fast that tho entire train left the track at tho bottom, and there were box cars piled up high. An investigation immediately followed, aud the engineer, in railroad parlance, was put on tho "carpet."
