BELIEVES WIFE ELOPED

LEININGER WILL FOLLOW SWASEY
On Latter's Recommendation, Senator Perkins Will Present Former's Name as Register of Land Office
REDDING (Shasta Co.), January 27 - C.W. LEININGER, now teaching school in Chico, but really a resident of Trinity County, a part of this Federal Land District, will succeed Frank M. SWASEY as Register of the United States Land Office in this city, and in all probability will act as Receiver also, as it is likely the two positions will be consolidated.
This news was made public here this morning. Some time ago Register Swasey wrote to Senator Perkins saying he was not an aspirant to succeed himself, as he had held the office eight years, and he wound up by recommending Mr. Leininger. This morning he received a reply from Senator Perkins complimenting him upon the way he had conducted the office and stating he would recommend Mr. Leininger, as requested. Swasey's term expires on March 5, 1906.
This is considered quite a victory for the Swasey end of the Republican Party here.
As announced in yesterday's Bee, J.L. COYLE of Hornbrook withdrew from this race several days ago. He was backed by Senator COGINS, and the opinion here is that the Senator wanted to get him out of the legislative race, as a probable rival.

BURNS END LIFE OF MRS. SMITH
REDDING (Shasta Co.), January 27 - Miss Elizabeth SMITH, who was badly burned Tuesday night at the office of the Nash Mercantile Company, through the overturning of an oil stove, as fully told in The Bee of Wednesday, died last night at 10:20 at the home of her parents here. The news of her death has caused profound grief in Redding. Miss Smith was well known and popular, and to die as she did causes her friends to sorrow more than ever.

FEAR CONSTABLE IS LOST IN THE WOODS
RED BLUFF (Tehama Co.), January 27 - To-day noon a search party headed by Sheriff WARD left here to look for Constable Richard MARTIN, who left here yesterday to serve a warrant on a man near Finley Lake.
This morning word was received that Martin's horse and buggy had been found tied to a fence along the road, but that no trace of him could be found.
As he is old and near-sighted, it is feared Martin wandered off in the woods and became lost. If so, he probably passed the night in that way, and the exposure may kill him.

ELLIS LAKE COMPANY
MARYSVILLE (Yuba Co.), January 27 - The subscribers to the fund for the improvement of Ellis Lake have decided to incorporate under the name of the Ellis Lake Improvement Company, with a capital stock of $20,000, covered by the issuance of 2000 shares of $10 each.

He was born in Giles County, Virginia, on the 27th of February, 1823, and had he lived until the 27th of next month, he would have celebrated his eighty-third birthday.
The deceased was a very kind and highly respected citizen, and leaves besides a wife, one son, Charles J. KIRK, and three daughters - Mrs. N.B. KIRTLEY and Mrs. W.A. FORD, of Ukiah, and Mrs. T.L.

WHITE MAN SHOOTS NEGRO IN QUARREL
