Just what is the matter no one seems to know, but itis a fact nevertheless that she is always in tronble. As a bark she was on her way here from South American ports with a general cargo, when she was dismasted in | the Gulf of California and drifted out to | sen. Later she was picked up and towed | to San Francisco. The hull was sold at auction, and the vessel was repaired at considerable cost and turned into a bark- entine. She was loaded for Sydney, but Captain Kustel had to put back on ac- The cement putover the seams had washed off and the vessel took in considerable water. The return trip from New South Wales was & long one, and as the voyage did not pay expenses and the prospects were not bright the vessel was tied up in Oakland Creek.

Anderson is a Swede and stands six feet in his stockings. The owner went away vowing venge- ance, and at once ;sent down a man to take charge of the Vessel. When he dis- | played bis authority Anderson said: ““Captain Kustel is master of this snip, and he le{t me in charge.

Defendant’s Cross-Examination Con- cluded and the Case Continued Till January 12. The preliminary examination of Benja- | min F. Hudelson, charged with libel by Attorney D. B. Woodworth, was contin- | ued before Judge Campbell yesterday afternoon. Hudelson’s cross-examination by Wood- worth, which has occupied four after- noons, was concluded yesterday, and the Judge heaved a sigh of relief. Wood- worth confined himself almost entirely to certain the | statements had been made before tive Association during the hearing of the | charges against Rev. Donald M. Ross, most of which was objected to as irrele- vant and immaterial, and the objections were sustained. The Judge objected to Woodworth drageing in the names of reputable citi- zens because certain persons were reported | as having made statements which no sen- | sible man would believe they would make, but by asking the question Woodworth | succeeded in his object.

Argument in the Supervisor’s Case to Be Heard To-Morrow Morniug. Supervisor-elect Rivers appeared in Judge Hebbard’s department of the Su- perior Court yesterday with a motion to dissolve the tempora injunction ob- tained by Supervisor Wagner, represent- ing the Twelfth Ward, said’ injunction restraining Mr. Rivers from attempting to take possession of his office until further order of the court. In the outset Judge Hebbard announced that e would decline to hear any argu- ment touching the validity of the recent election, as he holds a commiission under that election and would consider himself aisqualified for sitting for the pnrpose of deciding as to the legality of the election. He was willinz to hear argument on the technical point as to whether an injunc- | tion Wonlslia in such a case as the one at bar, and by consent further proceeaings | were continted until to-morrow morning | at 9:30 o’clock. An effort will in the meantime be made to get the case before some Judge of the Superior Court who is legaily gualified to take up the matter in all its bearings, in order that a decision may be reached upon the merits of the case at the earliest pos- sibie moment.

Several changes have been made in the office of the County Olerk, as Mr. Curry has deaxded to reduce the force until the work of the office requires more assist- anis, Those who are retired are James Mc- Eiroy, William Dunlap and Charles H. Fancher, courtroom clerks; Frank B. Houghton, E. O'Tulle, Andrew Branch and James Daly, deputy clerks; C. W. Mauller, William Holland, James Wise- man, Fred Buckman and T. Mullen, copy- ists. Harry Angelo will go from a deputy clerk’s desk to the copylng department. C. W. Harter and Charles Corey will be promoted to courtroom clerks. Ed J. Casey, Charles Bmith and Charles Meuzner will be the only new men put on the list of employes. Mr. Casey will be assigned to duty as clerk of Judge Black’s department of the Superior Court. Mr. Branch and Mr. Wiseman have re- tired trom the Clerk’s office voluntarily for the purpose of going to Sacramento, where they expect to be rewarded with positions in the giit of that body. Mr. Curry has reduced his force by dis- pensing with the services of twenty men in the past two months, He says he wall keep enough deputies to do- the work and no more. _—————— Trunks Moved 25 Cents.

Tel, main 49, Furniture moved reasonably.* ul BURNS MONUMENT BANKS O'DOON. and manager of the American Hiscuit Company, who said this yesterday after- noon. “Yes, 1 am one of the cldest membersof the Caledonian Club,” continued Mr. Dann, “but I am not now considered an active member. Still, I am interested in the club and what it does, and especially in this project of a Burns monument. Times have been hard, and the raising of meney for any purnose whatever just now would probably be a difficult matier; but there are enough Scotsin this City to carry such a project through if properly under- taken. Thatis my bellef. Thatisa mat- ter for those taking the initiative, how- ever. They will probably know just what they are abont oefore they begin the prac- tical part of it. Atany rate, as I'said, if the work is undertaken it should be with a view of doing it properly. “By the way,” continued Mr. Dunn, “a Burns monument was agitated some years ago by the St. Andrew’s Society and a number of subscriptions were secured. 1 remember that I donated something. The plan was never carried out, and so I sup- pos: they have the money then collected. It ought to form a nucleus for a new fund. Yes, I am in favor of & Burns monument that will be a credit to Scotchmen and the descendants of Scotcrmen in this Ciry.” To Dr. Minton, professor in the theo- logical college at San Anselmo, is due the credit for reviving the Burns monument idea at this time. Dr. Minton visited Scotland last August, representing the Scotch societies here at the Lord Kelvin jubilee. At the banquet given in Mapie Hall-at the Palace Hotel on last St ‘Andrew’s night, Novem ber 30, Dr. Minton responded to atoast to Scotland in the course of which he mentioned the name of Scott. He was interrupted by pro- longed applaase. A little further nlong he spoke of Burns. The burst of applause was such as to make a distinet impression upon him. Afterward he spoke of it and said that the sentiment was evidentiy so quick and warm in the Scottish heart for Burns that it should find some substantial expres- sion and that the old monument idea should be revived and placed in such hands as would enlist confidence, and it would go through to a finish, in short order. % Subsequently, on this hint, the orators » at the Caledonian Club took it up, and the sentiment has been growing ever since. Under the provision of its constitution | the Caledonian Clab meets to-night, but it being a noliday -it 1s not likely that a quorum wili be present, so that the meet- ing will be adjourned over until the next regular date, which is the third Friday of this month. Definite action will then be taken. E A WIFE'S REPENTANCE. Mrs, John Murphy of San Jose Gets Tired of Life With an Ex. Conviet. The young wife of John Murphy, an old gardener of San Jose, he beingalso a well- known Grand Army man, left him and her child two months ago and came to: this City with William Huey, an ex-conyict and morphine “fiend,” Huey placed her in a house of ill-fame in Chinatown. Becoming disgusted with the life she was leading, she wrote to her husband a few days ago imploring his for- giveness and begging him to teke her back. Murphy was touched by her pleadings and consulted Chief Kidward, wno wrote to Chief Crowley asking him to find the erring woman. Detective Anthony . and Policeman Jerry :Dinan found her in Huey’s room, 633 California street. Huey had & revolver inhis pocket, and the woman said he had twice:threatened to Kkill her with it if ‘she attempted 1o leave i him.

Ordinary MISTERY OF A STOLEN PURSE It Contained Two Hundred Dollars and Several Valuable Papers. Mrs. Frankopan, a Visitor to the City, the V:ctim of a Thief, ! She Lost tie Koy of Her Trunk, and | ‘When She Got It Op:ned the Purse Had Disappeared. Detectives are busily engaged endeavor- ing to elucidate the mystery of a robbery that occurred at 1711 California street Wednesday moraing. The houss is occupied by Mrs. T. H. Judd, and Mrs, Frankopan, a friend, is at present on a visit to her during the holi- day season. ‘Wednesday morning after breakfast Mrs, Frankopan discovered that she had lost the key to her irunk. She searched everywhere for it, but could not find it, and after lunch she went to a locksmith to get him to open the trunk. The locksmith went back with ber and they, went to her room. After trying sev- | eral keys, one was found to fit the ldck and the trunk was opeced. Mrs. Franko- pan saw at once that some one had been tampering with the contents of the trunk since she last looked into it in the morn- ing before losing the key. She ‘reached for the place where she kept her purse to get money to pay the locksmith, and found to her surprise that it had been stolen. She searched through the trunk, thinking the purse might have been by wistake put in another place, but it was not to be found. The: purse contained a number of valu- able papers:and about $200 in coin. Mrs. Frankopan is more vexed over the loss of the papers than the money, and as they are of use to no one but herself she is very anxious. to get them back. Information of the robbery was at once sent 1o police headquarters and two detec- tives were sent to the house. They ques- tioned the ‘servant girl and every one in the house, but were unable to get a clew. | The purse must have been stolen be- tween:10 v'clock in the morningand 1in the afternoon by some one who found the lost key. At least that is the conclusion the -detectives arrived at, but who the thief is remains 4 mystery so far, although | the “sleaths” look wise and’ give tue impression that they will soon have a clew. “I'have no idea who stols the purse,” said Mrs. Frankopan last night. ‘I have no suspicion of any one, and 1if I bad it would not_do_for me to say so unless I bad some good reason for doing so. ‘ ©It is possible that & sneak thief may | have entered the house by the rear door | and opened the trunk with a false key, but it seems imorobable. The froni door is always kept locked, so that no one could enter by that way. I think the trunk was opened and the purse stolen during the short time I was away for the locksmith. It is an unfor- tunate affair and I hope the police will be able to clear it up.’” ———————————— NEW TO-DAY—AMUSEMENTS. . a MM IFRIEDLANICR.COTTLOD & Co+ LESSES ATD PATAGERS -+~ F HAPPY | TO NEW=YEAR YOUu.
