HARRY WOOD GETS A JOLT JURY RECOMMENDS HIM TO MERCY OF COURT Sentenced to One Year, Eleven Months and Fifteen Days in San Quentin and to Pay a Fine of $1,000—Found Guilty of Assault With Deadly Weapon on F. A. Yungbluth Harry Wood, the tailor who early in the morning of April 29 fired a shot at F. A. Yungbluth at the latter's residence in this city, was on Friday morning sentenced by Judge West in the Superior Court at Santa Ana to serve one year, eleven months and fifteen days in San Quentin penitentiary and to pay a fine of $1000. The jury found him guilty of assault with a deadly weapon, cutting out the charge "with intent to kill," the maximum penalty for which is fifteen years. The limit for the lesser crime is two years in prison and a fine of $5000. The jury also recommended Wood to the mercy of the court. Wood on the witness stand declared the discharge of the revolver was accidental, while at his preliminary examination he swore he had attempted to kill himself. He failed to state, at his hearing in the township court, that if suicide were his motive for firing the shot, why it was he did not use any of the four remaining charges in his weapon. Wood set up the claim that he was in love, had been jilted and wanted his former employer to intercede for him with the object of his affections. He went to the Yungbluth residence on the morning of the assault and calling his former employer to to state, at his hearing in the township court, that if suicide were his motive for firing the shot, why it was he did not use any of the four remaining charges in his weapon. Wood set up the claim that he was in love, had been jilted and wanted his former employer to intercede for him with the object of his affections. He went to the Yungbluth residence on the morning of the assault and calling his former employer to the front door engaged him in conversation and attempted to enter the house. On the door being shut in his face he fired a shot, the ball flattening itself in the cement wall of the building. He walked to the rear screen porch, upon which he entered, but was unable to enter the kitchen. Had he succeeded in getting into the house, Mr. Yungbluth is of opinion he would have attempted the murder of the entire family. Wood was arrested north of town by Marshal Steadman who went after him with Billy Berdrow, while a number of citizens were scouring the county for him. When first seen by Steadman, Wood held his revolver in his hand. On being covered with the officer's gun, Wood dropped the weapon. After his arrest he said, "I'm sorry I did not finish the job." When Steadman and Berdrow gave this testimony on the stand Wood indignantly exclaimed it was a "lie," and was warned by Judge West as to his actions in court. Witnesses for the prosecution were Mr. and Mrs. Yungbluth, J. P. Hatzfeld, N. F. Steadman, Billy Berdrow and Fred Dyckman. Wood went on the stand in his own behalf, saying the discharge of the gun was accidental, that he was in love and that he meant no harm to his former employer. The jury gave him the benefit of the doubt, as it rejected the more serious charge "with intent to kill," and recommended him to the mercy of the court. In sentencing Wood Judge West administered a severe reprimand, added that if Wood had been convicted of the charge against him, he would have received a ten years' sentence.

As Wood has no property the fine of $1000 will hang as a judgment against him. BAMBOO IN ARIZONA Chicago, June 1.—Japanese bamboo is to be grown in America. William D. Hills, a government expert, who has been in Japan for the past 18 months, believes that this can be accomplished successfully in Arizona. He has shipped fifty tons of the bamboo trees which he raised in Japan to the government experimental farm near Yuma, Ariz. The trees will be set out immediately. Should the cultivation of this new and valuable product prove profitable it will mean a great deal to the arid regions of the great southwest. Its use is constantly increasing in this country, and with the advent of its utilization in aeroplanes and flying machines, its value will be greatly enhanced.

COMET GOING SOME Mons of Miles a Minute, Headed This Way A comet flying through space at the height of many millions of miles a minerediated a light which is plainly visible to the naked eye just after sunset, according to Edwin Fairfax City of New York, a student of astonomy, who is credited with numerous discoveries in that science. The comet, whose coma radia, or light, was seen by Naulty, was observed by Prof. William R.Brooks Robert college, Geneva, N. Y., Mon morning last and by a coincidental approach was noted the same noon in New York by Naulty. Said the comet was between the moon and the sun and that at sunset night was at cross angles with rays of the sun. Naulty said the comet might be due to any observer in the early evening or at twilight, and that its approach might be heralded by that rainbow in the eastern heavens. Its position Monday night, with moon to the sun, he said, caused light to be prismatic. See the comet in the morning must look toward the north, and at sunset to a point southwest of the sun. “There is absolutely no danger to the earth in contact with the comet’s tail,” said Naulty. “Danger from contact with the comet itself would be nothing,” he went on, “assuming that the gaseous elements are always shown by the spectrum. The only danger would be contact with the solid substances following a comet in its orbit, and as these always have been minute in size, they are, except in rare cases, dissipated with gas by the friction resulting from their passage through the air to the earth.” Who dares to say that California is not a good place for old men? In Sonoma county recently six witnesses at the Gird estate contest in the Superior Court had a combined age of 480 years, and each walked to the witness stand spry and hearty. Some of them spoke of the late pioneer, Henry Gird, as “Old Man Gird,” when in reality all of them were older than he at the time of his death. Another fact in connection with “Pioneer Day” at the Gird trial was the presence of 30 men who have lived in Sonoma county, in the same section, for half a century or longer.
