Some time ago the ladies of the Presby- terian church took in hand to rectify some very grievous errors in the Van Patten family., That such errors exisied was proved by the testimony in the trial of one James L. Tyson, who was convicted and sent to jail for a simple assauit on one of Van Patien’s little daughters. In May, 1895, Van Patten and Tyson were arrested and taken to the County Jail. The Van Pattens then lived on 8ix- teenth street and Tenth avenue in East Oakland. The charge was made that Van | Patten had countenanced the presence in his home of Tyson, with a full knowledge of the fact that Tyson’s intentions toward the Van Patten girls were not i onorable. The members of the church took up the matter and warrants were sworn (o by . J. Welch. Van Patlen was tried before Justice Lawrence in East Oaklana, He served eleven days in jail pending the ex- amination. Tyson was held for trial, but the felony charge was notsubstantiated in sentenced to three months for & simple assanit. In his complaint asking for $25000 for libel, Van Patten states that the defend- ants have broken up his home; that their allegations have caused his two children to be taken from him, and that be is now refused permission to visit them. He as- serts that the defendants had no grounds fur making the allegations, and declares that what was done was part of a conspir- acy to ruin him. The ladies of the Brooklyn church and the other defendants stated definigely that the arrest was prompted solely by mo- tives of humanity and to shield two little girls from the evils of gross companion- ship. Harry A. Melvin and Attorney Haven represent the defendants, and Attorney Aram awppears for Van Patten. The select lobby listened nearly all day to argu- ments relative to the admission of the complaint issued by the Justice of the Peace in the original proceedings. Attor- ney Aram read the complaint, and much | of it is expressed in definite language other than that usually found in such documents as being -‘of information and He argued that the complainy was admissib e as evidence of aconspiracy against Van Patten. The defendants’ attorneys argued the question for seyeral hours. Finaily Judge Greene consented to a postponement of two wenks. The case has been dragging along for some time, but has not been brought to trial because of the inability of the plaintiff to put up the costs. This morning Van Patten’s atiorney produced the necessary jees and the case went on. FRIEND OR ENEMY. Peculiar Position of an Official in a Divorce Sulit. OAKLAND, CaL., April 3 —Charles J.

Kelley holds a position trust with the railroad “company. Five years ago he married a widow, and established a nice home in West Oakland.

CHRIS CAMILL. This notice apoeared in to-night’s local papers and caused much comment. Chris Cahill is a paper-hanger, and the domestic relations of the Cahills have not been what they should be in a well-reguiated family. Some time ago Cahill left his home, and by way of revenging himself for some of the grievances that he imag- ined existed between himself and wife, he made an attempt to bave some of Ler chil- aren taken from her. Cahill even went so far as to visit Mrs. Prescott, secretary of the Society for Pre- vention of Cruelty to Children, and tell her some peculiar stories about his wiie. Mrs. Prescott commenced an invesiiga. tion, and when Mrs, Cahill was aware of her husband’s doings she at once started out to right herself before the public. Ehe denied all the stories and was able to prove that the wrongs referred to by Ca- hill were purely imaginary. Not content with this, she found her husband and quickly brought him to time. ‘What transpired is not known exactly, but Cahill made a tour of the newspaper offices trying to get them to contradict his story, which he had himsel! circulated, He did not want to place the onus of the contradiction on himself. As this little scheme would not work and as Mrs. Cahill would be content with nothing less than a public contradiction the husband was forced to publish the littie notice printed above. He now states that this experience has ght him the greatest lesson of his life and that he has gona back to his family and does not intend to take part in any proceedings in t e future which shall render necessary the publication of any notices like that which is now appearing daily. — A L Four sailing vessels are lost at sea {0 one steamer. 1 in trust for the young man during his nat- ural life or until he should be restored to capacity. Allrich now declares that he is per- fectly sane and capable of taking care of himself and his property, anxious that the court vacate the order declaring him insane and judicially de- clarethat he is once more of sound and disposing mind. N Aldrich is now 34 years of age, is not married and has no guardian. For the past two years he has been regarded by his friends as entirely responsible, and he | is now anxious to be declared legally com- petent.

About a year ago Aldrich, who had baen out of the asylum some ume on psrole, made a similar petition. After leaving the asylum he traveled extemsively in this country and Canada and also took a | trip to the Hawaiian Isiands. | Itwas on his return from the latter place that he asked to be restored to re- sponsibility. Judge Ogden conducted a very exhaustive investigation, and sev- eral medical experts, including Dr. Gard- ner of Naps, testified. Their evidence | seemed to indicate that at the time the young man was perfectly sane. The oniy question in doubt was asto the possible | reenrrence of his mental délusion, | The case was temporarily continued, and in the meantime Judge O den re- { cerved a communication from Aldrich and had an interview with him, which resulied in the court dismis-ing the application at that time, Since then Aldrich has con tinued his travels and it is said he has conducted his business and deperted him- self as any one would ao in his rig. t mind. The bringing of the petition at this time evidently had some connection with the suit brought by William Holt Aldrich in San Francisco a few days ago to set aside a rust provision in favor of himself and his childrep. The trust is claimed to be void in that it pronibits the a ienation of the interest of the son and beir until a child not yet born shall be 24 years of s 1t is more than likely that George Aldrich is wanied asa witness in this case, and that ne wishes to be restored to capacity so that he wili be competent to testify. William Aldrich was a well-known char- acier in the Hawaiian Islands, and is now a resident of San Francisco. SOLOMOXN'S DISTRZSS. May Have to Give Half of His Prop- erty to His Wife. OAKLAND, Can, April 3,—Solomon Baumgarten is in dire distress. He is now serving sixty days in the Ciy Prison rather than pay a fine of $100 for batter- ing his young wife, and he gains just enough liberty each day to go down to the Superior Court and testi.y in the suit brought by his wile for a share of the property. Juage Ellsworth nearly broke the old fellow’s heart by intimating that if Mrs. Baumgarien would release her claim to a lot valued at $700 he would cancel the deed to ihe projerty from Baumgarten to his son, which it is all"ged was made for 1he purpose of defrsuding the young wife.

Measles took the lead with 79, and mumps came next with 15. There were 15 deaths and 23 births. Dr. ‘Carpenter, who has charge of the inspection of dairies and other institu- tions, reporied that he had found two bakeries which were in a bad sanitary con- dition and that he had directed that they be cleaned up at once. The matter of the balf-burned house of Mrs, Sterrett of San Francisce, located at the junction of Alameda and Central ave- nues, was taken up. This honse was partly burned two years ago and has stood there ever since, an eyesore and a resort for loajers and .bad characters. It was decided to give the owner fifteen days’ notice, and if somerhing is not done by that ume then the Fire Department will be calied on to move the ruins, Gatting the Best of a Combine. ALAMEDA, CaLn, April 3.—City Clerk Lamborn got the best of the combine 1n election supplies very neatly yesterday.

While he was bargaining for the supplies at the reduced rate the dealers were keeping a strict watch for one **Clerk Harbourne'’ of Alameda, who they haa been told was 1n the market for supplies and for whose benefit the prices were to be raised. But they had the name wrong, and 1t was not until the bargain had been closed at the lower price that they learned the identity of the purchaser. Notes.
