THE BEAUTY DOCTOR ON TRIAL
Mrs. Nita Willard's Victims Con
tinue Sad Stories
SEDUCTIVE LETTERS DID IT
Some Wonderfully Constructed Epistles
Introduced in Evidence
A Peculiar Larceny Case-Bagley Embezzle
ment Examination— Kennett Jury
Completed-General Notes
Tbero was a much larger crowd than
usual in attendance at the United States
district court yesterday morning when
the trial of tho Wiliards was resumed be
fore Judge Wellborn and a jury. All the
parties in interest were on hand, the
handsome little beauty doctor occupying
a seat by her counsel, .1. Marion Brooks,
esq., and was apparently not in tha least
worried as to tiie outcome. This young
woman, Mrs. Nita L. Willard, is but little
more than a girl in appearance, but she
bas great self-possession, and sat un
moved during tho reading of her wonder
ful lettors, only occasionally whispering
some suggestion to her counsel. Mrs. Nita
has nerve, bssides youth and beauty, and
as a fake letter writer has never had an
equal in this locality.
The tirst witness called was Mrs. Minna
M. Stephens of Gilroy, Cal, and sho oc
cupied the stand during the greater part
of the day. Mrs. Stephens was one of the
ladies who fell into Mrs. Willsrd's trap,
being caught hy th"se seductive letters
promising stesdy employment at good
wages in managing branch agencies for
the sale of the famous beauty wonder,
the demand for which was so great that
it could only be met by tbe most stren
uous efforts.
The lady told how she pawned her
watch to procure $10 to send to Mrs. Wil
lard for n lirst installment of the face lo
tion, which was expected to go off like
hot cakes, hut didn't. Mrs. Stephens
became distrustful after she sent the $10,
and wrote several letters to Mrs. Willard,
which evidently worried tier consider
ably.
Her replies were read by District At
torney Denis, and they exhibited the
prolific vocabulary commanded by the
interesting defendant. They were volu
minous and ranged in expression from
familiarity to ser.rn. in one of them she
addressed Mrs. Stephens as "Minnie,"
and told her to "brace up, dear sister,"
She affected to laugh al the lack of faith
in the honorable intentions of the Won
der combination, and assured her corres
pondent tbat she would do everything in
her power to assist her.
Tho tone of the latter changed when
Mis. Stephens wanted her money back.
Mrs. Willard informed her that she was
very much disappointed in her, and that
she had better drop tbe whole business,
but that owing to hard times she could
not lot ber have the $10 just then, al
though she might do so later.
Other letters were written in reply to
an interesting letter by Mrs. Stephens,
saying that Mrs. Willard had gone toVer
mont to visit relatives. Then followed
two signed in an unintelligible manner,
threatening Mrs. Stephens with proseu
tion for criminal libel for her "insults"
to Mrs. Wdlard.
"You don't scare us worth a cent,"
i one of them stated, and further asserted
tbat Judge F. A. Willard had learned of
her insults and tha' she would rue her
action for her miserable charges of fiaud.
Page after page of these letters were
read, and when the last bad boen iden
tiliod tho witness was turned over lo
counsel for the defense for cross-examin
ation.
JMr. Brooks asked Mrs. Stephens if she
was living with her hu.sband, to which
sbc replied ttiat she was not. Mr.
Brooks then wante.il to know why the
lady and ber husband bad separated,
when Mr*. Stephens flatly declined to an
swer the question.
Mr. Brooks insisted that this was a
perfectly proper question, as going to
show the status of the witness in the
town where she resided. Mrs. Stephens,
while stating that it was from no fear
that it would Incriminate herself that she
ref jsed to answer, still declined to do so.
At this point United States Attorney
Denis came to the r. scue of the witness,
and a lengthy and heated argument en
sued, Mr. Denis insisting tbat it was not
proper, ai d that the statutes expressly
protect witnesses from having indignities
thrust upon them.
Judgo Wellborn then dismissed tho
jury, and, after listening to the argu
ments for a few minutes longer, took tho
mattor under advise.nent until 2 oclock,
taking :t recess until that hour.
When court reconvened Mrs. Stephens
again took the stand, when Mr. Brooks
stated that he would withdraw the objec
tionable question and then started in
on his cross-examination. Mr. Brooks
is always entertaining, and he proceeded
to amuse himself in bis own fashion with
Hra. J. P. Bell, Ossaioatomie, Kan.
wife of the editor of The Graphic, the lead
ing local paper of Miami county, writes
"I traa troubled with heart disease
for Biz years, severe palpitations, short
ness of breath, together with such ex
tremo nervousness, that, at times I would
walk tho floor nearly all night. Wo
consulted the best medleal talent.
They said there tray no help for me,
that I had organic disease of the heart for
which there was no remedy. I had read
your advertisement in Tho Graphic and
aycarago, as a last resort, tried one bottleof
Dr. Miles' Xew Cure for the Heart,
which convinced mo that there was true
merit in it. 1 took three bottles each of tho
Heart Curo and Kestorativo Nervine and
It completely cured me. I sleep
well at night, my heart beats regularly and
I have no more smothering spells. I wish
to say to all who aro suffering as I did;
there's relief untold for them if they will

having been shaken on any material
point.

Wonder, but no onu chußed her around
wanting to buy it. The witness further

Charted With drand Larceny
Henry Childress and Will Davis were
arraigned before Justice Young in the
township justice court yesterday on a
charge of grand larueny, and bald for ex
amination in $1009 each. Tbe case Is a
most peculiar one, to say tno least. To
begin witli, the complaint, although
sworn to October 10th, was not Tiled until
yesteruav.
Tho alleged orirao was commltteed last
August. King was a "burner" in tne
employ of the City Brick company, and
Childress was and iB a "burner" In the
employ of the Los Angeles Pressed Brick
company, and bittierto has borne a good
reputation.
One night last August King was as
saulted by some unknown person, and
had his head cut. He lied for refuge to
the oltico of the pressed brick company,
where Childress and Davis were found.
King told how ho had been struck hy
someone, and that be had $140 on liis
person, which be desired Childress to
take care of for bim, as he was afraid
someone was after him to rob bim.
According to Childress and Davis
Childress refused to accept tho charge of
the money, arid suggested to King that
he ring up the patrol wagon and let the
police take care of his money.
This King declined to do, and it was
then suggested to him that be hide it
some place. In accordance with this
suggestion he went away and found a
hiding place under some lumber in the
neighborhood, where be put tbe $14(1.
A day or two afterward King, being
sick, sjnt for Childress and told him
where ho had hidden the money. He
asked Childress to get it for him. Child
rcss went to the place designated and
found tae holo where the money had
been hidden empty. Someone had taken
it away. He reported the result of bis
search to King, who was all broken up
by his loss.
.Nothing was done looking toward the
implication of Childress and Davis in the
loss from that time until recor.tly. and
they claim to know nothing whatever of
the money lost by King.
The Bayley Embezzlement Case
Tbe entire time of Justice Young ot
the township court was taken up yester
day in tne examination of Kobert O.
Bagley, an old soldier who runs a small
store and tavern at San Gabriel, on a
charge of embezzling $11150 belonging to
John Tate, another old soHier who made
his home with Bagley. Briefly stated,
it is alleged that Bagley made away with
the money, which had been intrusted to
him for safe-keeping, and wdien it was
all spent ordered Tate out of the house.
It was shown that Tate had an excessive
thirst and thjit nothing was done by his
friends to aofft it. Further, it was shown
tnat numerous articles had been purchas
ed with Tate's money for the use and
benefit of liaglev, his sister, Mrs. Kate
McCormick, and the children, including
a bicycle, a violin, a buggy nnd other
similar articles. The witnesses for the
defense all testilied that these aricles had
been bought by Tate and presented to the
boys of his own free will and accord and
that there was never any intention of
plying him with liquor to get the bettor
of him.
Tha witnesses examined yesterday
were John fate, Mrs. Kate McCormick,
li. J. Bagley, Katie 0. McCormick, S.
Post, J. A. Dtinrta, William Ilonnet

Divorce Business
A badly mixed divorce suit was tried
by Judge Shaw yesterday afternoon in
which both parties got a decree. Tbe
title of the suit was S. Cappel vs. A.
Cappid, and was brought by the hnsbm d
on the ground of the misconduct of his
wife. Some time ago Mrs. Cappel hrougbt
suit against her husband far lailuro to
support, whereupon ho retaliated by
bringing tha suit above mentioned. It
was alleged, among other things, that
Mrs. Cappel was addicted to the use of
liquor,and that while under the influence
would stand at her eate anil invite men
passing by to enter the house, when she
would permit thorn to take Improper
liberties with her. This array of charges
evidently frightened tbe woman, for sho
made no defense, failing to put in an
apneaarnce. Aftor hearing the evidence
Judge Shaw concluded that each was in
fault. He accordingly gavo judgment
for the husband in tho failure to provide
caso and for the wife in the divorce case.
By this, it will be seen that Mrs. Cappel
gets no support, while Cappel gets no
divorce.
Judge York yesterday gave Jennie E.
Williams a decree divorcing her from her
husband. John Williams. Desertion was
the grounds.
A Difference of Opinion
Robert Graham has instituted suit
against the Farmers and Merchants' bank
to recover {312.61, Graham alleges that
on the Ith day of October, 1893, he had
a balance to his crr-dit with the hank
of $312.64. On that date he drew a check
in favor of the National Ice company for
$312, which he gave to tbat company in
payment on his account. Eater the cheek
was returned to him. the Farmers and
Merchants' bank refusing to honor ihe
same on the ground that he had ::o funds
on deposit, his account having been
closed. Graham then pßid the ice com
pany the amount called for in the check.
Plaintiff alleges tbat the laid Fanners
and Merchants' bank bas at all times
since refused to pay too nmount claimed.
Hence suit is instituted to recover,
witli Interessl at 7 per cent from October
11, 1895.

An important suit was on trial before

Griffith a certain tract of land at Azusa.

a suit was instituted against tho latter to
compel tbe performance of his contract.
Griffith alleged that he was ready and
willing to complete tho deal if Bohaiinon
would turn over tbe water stock which
he claimed went with the land. Tbe
question to be decided is wbetber the
water rights go with tbe land or whether
these rights, as represented by tbe stocks
of the various water companies, mint he
purchased in addition to the real estate.

SUSTAINED BY THE SYNOD
Proceedings in tbe Case of Rev. Burt
Estes Howard
The Various Errors in the Procedure Set Portal
In Detall-Oftlcial Record of
the Case
George H. Stewart of tbe Firat Fret>
byterian church received from San Jose
yesterday a copy of the proceedings of tna
synod in tbe case of Rev. Burt Estes
Howard, which is presented herewith.
"lam perfectly satislied with there
port of the committee, and in connection
with the decision of the superior court
of this county it nas preserved the auton
omy of the old First churcb. It lias also
accomplished more—the trustees nave
been traduced here right and left, and
have been placed in a false iight before
people unfamiliar with tbe circumstan
ces; the decision justilies the coursejof the
feurless elders and trustees as well as tbe
members of tho First churcb.
The decision was drawn by a commis
sion representing the best minds of the
coast, including such men aa Dr. Coyle
or Oakland, Dr. Mackenzie of San Fran
cisco, ex-Supreme Justice Thornton and
others:
To the Synod of California, in Session
at San Jose, October 24. 1805: Your com
mission appointed to issue certain oom
plaints and appeals which you have put
into tbeir bands, respectfully report:
We have given careful and patient at
tention to the business entrusted to us,
during sittings of four days, as the ac
companying minutes of our proceedings
will show more fully. And in the judic
ial cases submitted to us we nave reached
tiie following findings, which wo ask you
to enter upon your records, towit:
Judicial cases Nos. 1, 2, 3—Being com
plaints of J. X, Hoffman, a ruling elder,
against the presbytery of Los Angeles.
The complainant not being present either
in person or by counsel, the complaints
are dismissed.
Judicial caso No. 4—Being a complaint
of H. T. Gordon against the presbytery
of Los Angeles, complaining of.tbe action
of said presbytery in adopting the report
of committee and directing charges to be
brought, and appointing a committee to
uring charges against Rev. Burt Estes
Howard, J, K. Hoffman, J. C. Salis
bury, M. N. Avery, H. G. Wiley and H.
T. Gordon, ami of the action of presby
tery when said charg.s were Tiled in or
dering a citation to issue to said parties.
As the substance of the complaint ia
c inclined in the appeal cases hereinafter
mentioned which were issued by us, and
our linding in said appeal cases covers the
requirements ot this case, the complaint
is dismissed.
Judicial case No. s—Presbyterian
church of tha United States of America
vs. Rev.Burt Kstcs Howard, being an ap
peal of the said Hurt Estes Howard from
the judgment of the presbytery of Los
Ange a. rendered upon tbe 11th day of
October, 18115, guilty of viola
ting his ordination vows and ordering
bim suspended from the exercise of his
functions as a minister.
We find that the presbytery erred in the
following pailioulars, towit:
First—in deciding that an application
for postponement was out of order and
could not be considered, and in refusing
to give time to the defendant to procure
counsel.
Second—ln sustaining the objection of
the prosecution to the question asked by
defendant Thompson, "Was the legal
effect of accepting the name Westminster
discussed at tho meeting of the commit
tee."
Third—ln sustaining the objection ol
the prosecution to the question asked the
witmsses Salisbury, Hoffman, Goricn
and Jirearly.
"H. State wbetner you heard me say
whether I wus influenced by tbe fact
that other interests than ,my own were
involved which I couid not endanger by
admitting tbe jurisdiction ot presbytery
In the matter of constituting the West
minster church and tbe pastoral and sos
is onal relation."
Fourth —In sustain ing tho objction of
tbe prosecution to the question asked by
tbe defendant of the witnesses Salisbury
and Gordon, "What reason did I give for
not submitting to die jurisdiction of the
presbytery in this matter?"
Fifth —In sustaining the objection of
tho prosecution to the following question
asked the witnesses Brearly, Salisbury
and Hoffman, "State whether the pastor
and session had legal advice to the effect
that the property would all escheat to the
state if they recognised the dissolution
of tiie First church and the constitution
of the Westminster church witii the pas
toral and sessional relations?"
Sixth —In refusing to permit the wit
ness J. W. McKinley to testify as to tbo
advice given by hint to the defendant
concerning the legal effect of compliance
with the orders of the presbytery with re
ference to a division of the First Presby
terian church and its property.
Seventh—ln finding th j defendant guilty,
when the charge and specifications were
insufficient, and the specifications did
not set forth facts which sustained tin
charge.
Eighth—ln overruling defendant's ob
jection to the charge and specifications.
Ninth—lo finding the defendant guilty
when there was no evidence to show that
he had oeen guilty.
Tenth—ln finding tho defendant guilty
when the evioence showed that he hail
never refused to do anything which ne
had been ordered to do by the presoytery,
and therefore had not violated his 1 ordi
nation vow to submit to his brethren in
the Lord.
Eleventh —In finding the defendant
guilty when it appears thorn tbe evi
dence that in dispute betweeu
the presbytery and the church were
purely temporal, and tha orders ol tbe
presbytery wero intended to compel the
payment of money and in excess ot its
jurisdiction.
Tweltfh--In inflicting a sentence which
was in excess ami unduly severe.
ft In view of these errors wo sustained
the appeal and reverse the judgment of
the presbytery suspending said Hurt,
Estes Howard.
Judicial case No. <!—Presbyterian
church of thee I'nited States of America
vs. 11. T. Gordon, J. C. Salisbury, H.
G. Wiley, M. N. Avery and J. K. Hoff
man; being an appeal of said defendants
from the judgment of the presbytery of
Eos Angeles in finding them guilty of
contumacy and sentencing them therefor,
rendered upon the 15th day of October,
1886.
We find that tne presbytery erred in
the following particulars:
First —In overruling defendants'
objection to the Introduction of a copy
of the I.os Angeles Times.
Second —In finding the defendants
guilty when the charges and specifica
tions were Insufficient and the specifica
tions did not set forth facts which aus
tamed the charge.
Third—ln overruling the defendants
objection to the charge and specifications.
Fourth—ln finding defendants guilty
when there was no evidence to show that
they had been guilty of any offense.
Fifth —in finding the defendants guilty
when the evidence showed that defend
ants had never refused to do anything
which they bad been ordered by tbe pres
bytery, and therefore had not been guilty
of contumacy.
Sixth—ln finding defendants guiUj
when it appeare I from the evidence that
tbs matters In dispute between the pres
oytery and the chinch ware purely tem
poral, and the orders ot the presbytery
were intended to compel the payment of
money and in excess of its jurisdiction.
In view ol these errors we sustain the
appeal and reverse the judgment of the
presbytery in the case.
