W. W. Montague said that the Oity | should not be run by a board of health; these bilis he deemed too sweeping in their character.

About a week ago a Mrs. Louise Hunter arrived from Eureka, Cal., | with two little children, and she to from a children’s home in Oakland three fora year or so. She took her little ones, who range in ages from 14 to 3 years, to a room on First street, near Howard, | where she lived in seclusion, seidom leav- ing her apartments. The family was pro- vided with food by the landlady, but within a day or so the case r.acheéd the ears of the ofti Wwho at once m an investigation. To them Mrs. Hunter stated that her husband, Fremont Hunter, a lumberman, deserted her in Eureka about ite time of the disapvearance of a woman named Mc- Grill.

One of the girls | she hired ont to a tamale man in Alameda for $5a month and the saciely’s officers | are now huntiny for the child, Who is but | 9 years of age. Yesterday when the officers “cmcd upon Mrs, Hunter they found her |in a condition that warranted them in | sending the woman to the Receiving Hospital. They fear that her sorrow has | caused her to resort to opiates or stimu- lants. Atany rate she is not fit to take care of the children, three of whom were sent to the Youths' Directory. The doc- tors advise that Mrs. Hunter be sent to the City and County Hospilal. { A SPURIOUS DIVOROCE | The Charge of Bigamy Agninst Charles D. Dinckley Is Dismissed Charles D.

Alter all, Con Mocney’s cat may not be the ferocious beast that Secretary Hol- brook of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animalis believes. “Your Honor,” said Attorney Treadwell, Con’s counsel, to Judge Conlan, ve would like to call your attention to the fact that this cat in ques- tion, held as evidence, was a meek and mild feline of a back-fence domesticated nature. Since its term of detention in the dark corridors beneath this hall, where it has been viewed by scores of people daily, and where the trusties in charge have helped to poke it into a frenzy with aggravating sticks and canes, the poor animali has become wild, indeed. *It would be put a humone act to allow Mr. Mooney, my client and the owner of the bat, to take nim or her away. Thereiore, I beg, in the name of humanity, | thatan order to that effect be issued.’ | “Where did you ever see a cat like thatin a domesticated condition, Mr. Treadwell?”” asked Judge Conlan. “In Mexico, your Honor!” exclaimed Mr. Treadwell; “where we purred almost side by side in our youth beneath the cocoanut tree.” “I expect 5o, answered his Honor. ““There are about as many cocoanut trees | in your country as there are tame cats, guch as that ugly b2astin the cage down- stairs. All right; I'll give you an order to remove the cat, providing I am as- sured it will not be allowed to enter into any controversy with dogs or other ani- | mals. We may possibly neel it in evidence when this case comes up again.” An amusing part of the proceedings when Cornelins Mooney was before the bar to answer on a charge of attempting to bring off a fight between a cat and a dog is that there was no attorney ready to conduct the prosecution, Attorneys Dudley, Lawler, Rix, Pinjo, Gray, Quinlan and others having been requested to act in vain, The difficulty struck Judge Conlan in such a bumorous way that he laugk- ingly remarked : It is evident that every attorney within a radius of four blocks has been re- tained by Mr. Mooney. The case will, therefore, go over until Thursday, that Mr. Holbrook may get some one to represent him."” The cat has been removed from the jail to Mooney’s more comfortable quar- ters at Sierra Park, on the road to Baden.

A. A CONKNOE- Heart Disease Carries Off a Laly Well Kuown to Many People. Mrs. Amelia A. Connor died yesterday at her home, 1236 Market street, at the age of 66 years. There are in this City hun- dreds of people who remember Mrs, Con- nor, not only well but. kindly and with gratitude. She came from ber bome in Bangor, Me., in 1859 with her family and early in her womanhcod she was married to Captain Francis Connor, who for many years was master on the Oregon Raii- way and Navigation Improvement Com- pany’s steamers. In time he was pro- moted to the honorable and responsible position of ‘“‘Commodore” of the fleet. He held this position until the day of his death in 1850. During the life of her busband Mrs. Connor was a great entertainer in their home on Folsom street, near First, Rincon Hill, which was then the Nob Hill of San Francisco. Since his death Mrs. Connor has lived a more retired live, but she never forgot her earlier friends nor did they for- get her. During the last twelve or fourteen years Mrs. Connor has devoted much of her time and means to acts of charity, and it is stated that never in her life has a worthy person left her door unassisted. For several years Mrs. Connor has been afflicted with heart troubies, and this ail- ment was what brought her life to such a sudden end yesterday morning. The funeral will be held to-morrow, and the remains will be interred in the family patin Odc Fellows’ Cemetery, where her husband and several of the family repose. Itis probable that Mrs. Ada Ballon will officiate at the faneral, Mrs. Connor’s re- maining relatives are her sister, Mrs. W. K. Leveridge of this city, a_brother, Cap- tain Henry H. Webb of Honolulu, and Mrs. Bamuel A, Sanderson of Peralta Park, Berkeley. ————— Scared a Motorman. The report of an attempt to hold up an elec- tric car was investigated by Policeman J. Standley of the Mission district and the result was embodied in a letter to Chief,Crowley yes- terday morning as follows: “Mr. Nelson, motorman on car 1052 of the Ingleside Hune, reported to me that a man made an atiempt 0 hold up his cer near Bar- ney Farley’s botel at about 12 o'ciock. Officer Wilkinson and myself made an investigation immediately, We'learned that car 1051 passed the same point about five minntes afterward and the motorman saw a man with & big bottle in his hand and he heid it up and asked the motorman tohave a drink.” —————— Olographic Will in French. The will of Catherine J. Truxler nee Joanes has been filed for probate. Several small bequests are made to relations, and Emnst Joanes, nephew of the testatrix, is | named as residunry legatee. Francois Thomus is nominated as executor ¢ithout bonds. The estate i3 probably worth $4000. The willis olographic and written iu the French lan- guage. D Measles and Diphtheria.
