THE SA ALL BLAMED ON A PET CANARY, Its Attachment by the Sher- iff Results in a Divorce. A WIFE'S NCVEL PLAINT Mrs. Buckemein B'amed for Sell- ing Her Husband’s Pet Bird. ORDERED TO LEAVE HOME. The Story of Her Many Troubles Will Soon Be Told in the Divorce Court. OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, 908 Broadway, May 27. } A little canary bird that sings sweetly was the innocent cause of originating a di- vorce suit that has been filed in this county. The little bird was a pet, of course, and was the property of Max Buckemein, and ording to the wife’s complaint it was nore of a pet to him than was his wife. The troubles began when Max Bucke- mein published a notice that his wife, Elizabeth, had left his home, and that he would henceforth cease to be responsible jor her debts, Then he gave out the im- pression that his wife was gay and too fond of fine dress to pe the better half of a plain, though not penniless butcher. Buckemein did not tell his friends any- thing about his canary bird, but in her omplaint Mrs. Buckemein reveals the se- t and tells a story that does not har- ,.\andu.e at all with that to:d by her hus- band. The trouble began with the seizure by constable of the canary bird and cage. Buckemein had a judgment rendered sgamnst him, and when he refused to sat- isfy it the constable hunted around for something to attach. Among other things he {ook away the bird and cage, both of which were highly yrized by Buckemein. When he found that his pet was gone and that only the liook on the wall remained to remind him of what had been, he became uproarious and accused his wife of having entered into a conspiracy with his creditors to get his property. On these occasions he alto- gether forgot the amenities that should exist between husband and wile, and ac- cording to her story acted in a manner absolutely cruel. In toe early partof April Mrs. Bucke- mein says that life with her husband was unbearable. He refused to give her the commor necessities of life, and when she asked for anything she was assaulted and invited to starve to death. Her husband would frequently stand and look at the hook where his pet canary used to hang and whistle, and each time he would try and impress upon his wife how mucu less dear she was to him than his canary. On such occasions he would give weight to his remarks by flinging handy missiles at his wife, which frequently hit her and caused grievous bodily pain. The un- happy woman still bears the marks of bruises that were inflicted during the spells of anger inspired by the empty hook on the wall. . Six weeks ago the domestic unhappi- ness of the Buckemein household reached a climax. On April 6 the wife was ordered to ieave, and as she did not immediately show a desire to obey some very dire threats were made, She says that fear caused her to fiee as fast as she could, and that she did not willingly desert her hus- band. Mrs. Buckemein was not particularly anxious for a divorce so long as nothing was done by her husband, but when he published the notice about her desertion she authorized her attorney, Robert Ed- gar, to file a suit for divorce. AT CENTURY LA It Will Scon Bloom in the Gardens of the State University. A Seven Days’ Old Chinese Baby Given Christian Burial by a Local Undertaker. BERKELEY, CaL, May 27.—In t}le botanical gardens at the State University there is a huge century plant twenty-five feet in height which is about to send forth its myriad yellowish-green blooms and then prepare itself to fade away and die. The tall South American “agave’” stands in the garden on the other side of the old bridge near the students’ pathway and just opposite Lovers' lane. It forms the central feature of observation and admira- —_— Berkeley’s Century Plant. tion of nearly every visitor tb the univer- sity grounds, and at this season of the year there are many of them. Its huge epike is fully eighteen feet above the level of the feaf; rtion and Captain Kellner, foreman of the agricultural and botanica gardens, said to-day that he expected it wonld grow ten or fifteen feet more wit:in the next two or three weeks, at the end of which time it will bloom. Buried by Americans. BERKELEY, Cav., Mgly 27.—A local undertaker buried at Mountain View Cemetery to-day iittle Harry Fong, a wee Chinese infant, 7 days old, and weighing only four pounds, -This was the first Chi- nese baby ever buried from a Bernle{ estublishment, and the first infant of Chi- | | | nese parents that the undertaker, who has been in the business for the past ten years, has ever interred. As a result the re- mains of the little Celestial were the source of much interest to the curious passers-by as they lay at the branch morgue, and many availed themselves of the opportunity of viewing them. e father and mother of the deceased cluld.‘(]'eorun Fong and Neen, are Chris- tian Chine se, and because of this fact the infant came into the hands of Americans for burial. A solemn ceremony of a simple order was held over its remains this morn\ng in the chapel of the under- taking establishment, after which they Were transferred to the cemetery and in- terred, no one accompanying the body save the father and the undertaker. I doubt very much,” said the Deputy Coroner _ this™ afternoon, ‘‘whether & Chinese baby was ever before buried by Americans in Alameda County.” Schmidt-Stutt Trial. BERKELEY, CaL., May 26 —The case of Will Schmidt' against John Stutt for cruelty to animals, which arose through a difficulty which the two contractors had last week over right to and the privileges ofa certain giece of property, came up be- fore Justice James this morning.

OAKLAND, Car., May 27.—There isa of the Merchants’ Exchange of Oakland. James P. Taylor, Newly Elected President William V. Witcher, Newly Elected Pres- ident of the Oakland Board of Trade. is just now engaging the attention of the Merchants' Exchange and the Board of Trade and the various societies that usually take part. Last year's parade was a success, but there was a geod deal of dissatisfaction ex- pressed and those who had the affair in charge were not altogether pleased with the manner in which their work was re- ceived. Whileit is generally acknowledged that there should be a grand parade and general festival, there is a feeling prevalent that there should be some new and original features and that some of the errors of former years should be guarded agsinst, so that the executive body should be thoroughly representative of the commu- nity. Only on this line can a successful pageant be arranged. It is admitted on all sides that there should be a grand ceiebration of the Fourth, but the Merchants’ Exchange does not think that its members should do all the work and guarantee all the ex- penge, or should do more than its ghare as one of the important bodies of the com- munity. It will cost at _ieast $5000 to give a creditable display, and this sum, it is said, should be raised by the whole com- munity and used under the superintend- ance of a representative advisory board. Next Tuesday evening a committee from the Merchants' Exchange will consult with the Board of Trade in the maiter at the office of the gas company, and 1if a collection be decided upon it will be a joint one, The Board of Trade and the Merchants’ Excnange have just efected new boards of officers, and have entered upon _their spheres of work with renewed vigor. James P. Taylor of the Board of Trade is the new president of an organization that numbers nearly 500 members.. Witliam V. Witcher has just been elected president of the Mer- chants’ Exchange, and both are recognized in the commercial world as leaders of strength and merit. Should these two now undertake to get up a Fourth of July rade it will undoubtediy be one of good- P;proporuonu and artistic effect. Broke for Liberty. OAKLAND, CaL, May 27.—Bert God- dard ig in the County Jail on a charge of burgla: nd his chances fora long term are Monday he went to a nurser at Piedmont to visit Olaf Johnson.

WANT THE CANAL CLEANED Memorial Day Services in Ala- meda Saturday by Grand Army Posts. Meeting of the Congregational Club Funeral of Fletcher G. Hoyt. ALAMEDA, CAn, May 28.—Dr. J. T. McLean, Health Officer of the city, was commissioned to go to Washington over three months ago, to obtain funds from Congress to complete the canal to San Le- andro Bay, so that the tide might scour the channel of the sewage contained therein. He has done nothing furiher’| than to sell his interests in the tollgates to the Yosemite Valley, and the nuisance has increased so that the public bodies of Ala- meda and Oakland bave had to write and threaion Colonel Suter, Federal engineer, 8an Francisco, with all sorts of punish- ment if the evil is not lessened. Last night a lad named John Swanson was saved from drowning in the canal by E. C. Baker, Constable Day and the Rev. C. H. Loomis.

Doctors Who Attest That Two of Their Profession Treated the Case of Miss Ham Skilifully. The following letter is self-explanatory: OAKLAND, May 26, 1896. In THE CALL of the 23d inst. appeared an ar- ticle purporting to give, in brief form, the facts connected with a lawsuit tried in the Superior Court of this county against Mr. Ham, on a note given by him to Doctors Gold- son and Shannon for treatment of his daughter at Lakeside Sanatorium_in this city, in which suit Mr. Ham claimed that his daughter had been neghigently and unskillfully treated. THE CALL'S summary of the lawsuit is substan- tially correct, with the exception that it said” ‘“the evidence of the doctors was a cepted as proof that the money was never earned.” This is erroneous, and it does an injus- tice to Doctors Goldson and Shannon. The un- dersigned, regular physicians of Oakland, were called as witnesses, and upon being made acquainted with the symptoms of the case and_the diagnosis and the treatment by Doctors Goldson and Shannon, gave it as their unanimous opinion that the treatment of Miss Ham was scientific, skillful and proper.
