Some time ago tbe ladies of the Presby- terian church took in hand to rectify some very grievous errors in the Van Patten family, That such errors existed was proved by the testimony in the trial of | one James L. Tyson, who was convicted and sent to jail for a simple assauiton one of Van Patien’s little daughters. In May, 1895, Van Patten and Tyson were arrested and taken lo the County Jail. The Van Pattens then lived on 8i Oakiand. The charge was made that Van Patten had countenanced the presence in bis home oi Tyson, with a full knowledge of the fact that Tyson’s intentions toward the Van Patten girls were not : onorsble. | The members of the church took up the | matter and warrants were sworn to by U. Van Patien was tried before | Justice' Lawrence in East Oaklanda. He served eleven aays in jail pending the ex- | amination. Tyson was held for trial, but | the felony charge was notsubstantiated in 1o three montis for a simple assanit. In his complaint asking for $25,000 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 1s now serts that the defendants had no grounds | for making the allegations, and declares that what was done was part of & conspir- acy to ruin him. The ladies of the Brooklyn church and | the other defendants stated definigely that | the arrest was promptéd_solely by mo- | girls from the evils of gross companion- ship. k{’nrry A.

The case has been dragging along for some time, but has not been brought to tv put up the costs. This morning Van Patten’s atiorney produced the necessary fees and the case went on. FRIEND OR ENEMY.

OaxuaxD Orrice BN Fraxcisco 'ALL‘} 908 Broadway, April 3, The following paragraph is sureiy a very unpleasant morsel for even a peni- tent husband to digest: K ¥oWN To THE PUBLIC 1 SAID about my wite, Mrs. Margaret Cabill, is na- true, for 1 said it all in anger. CHRIS CAHILL. This notice apveared 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 have some of Ler chil- aren taken from her. Cahill even went so far as to visit Mrs. Prescott, seeretary of the Society for Pre- vention of Cruelty to Children, and tell her some pecvliar steries about his wile. Mrs. Prescott commenced an investiga- tion, and when Mrs, Cahill was aware of her husband's doings she at once started out to right herseif before the public. She denied all the stories and was able to prove that the wrongs referred to by Ca- hiil 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 newspap: offices trying to get them to contradict his story, which bhe had himsel: circulated. He did not want to place the onusof the contradiction on himself. As this little scheme wouid not work and as Mrs. Cahill would be content with nothing less than public contradiction the husband was forced to publish the little notice printed above. He now states that this experience has taught him the greatest lesson of his life and tbat he has gone 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. —_— Four sailing vessels are lost at sea toone steamer. 1 in trust for the young man during hisnat- ural life or until he should be restored to | capacity. i 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- clare‘that 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 besen regarded by his friends as entirely responsibie, and he is now anxious to be declared legally com- petent. When the case was taken up it appeared that the relatives of young Aldrich had | not been noutied of the hearing, and Judge Ha!l decided to continue the case until Monday noon to permit of Mrs. Donning, a sister of Aldrich, who resides 1n this city, being notified. 3 | 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 extensively in this country and Canada and also took a | trip to the Hawaiian Islands. | 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- | mer of Napa, testified. Their evidence | seemed to indicate that at the time the | young man was pertectly sane. The oniy | question in doubt was as to the possible | recurrence of his mental délusion. The case was temporarily continued, and in the meantime Judge O den re- i ceived 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- | seli as any one would do 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 Ean Francisco a few days ago to set aside a irust 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 heir until a child not yet born shall be 24 years of & 1t is more than likely that George Aldrich is wanied a witness in this case, and that ne wishes to be restored to capacity so that he wil} be competent to testify. William Aldrich was a well-known char- acier 1n the Hawaiian Islands, and is now aresident 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 dsy to go down to the Superior Court and testi.y in the suit | brought by his wife for a share of the property. Juage Ellsworth nearly broke the old fellow’s heart by intimating thas if Mrs. Baumgarien would release her claim to a lot valued at $700 he would cancel the deed to the property from Baumgarten to his son, which it is all*ged was made for ihe purpose of defrsudiny the young wile.

BOARD OF HEALTH, Bakerles Forced to Clean Up—A Partly Burned House Declared a Nulsance, ALAMEDA, €L, April 3.—Atthe meet- ing of the Board o: Health last night the Healin Officer reported 101 cases of conta- gious disease during the past month. Measles iook 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 house was pluldy burned two years ago and has stood there ever since, an eyesore and a resort for loafers and bad characters. It was decided to give the owner fifteen days’ notice, and if some!hing is not done by that ume then the Fire Department will be calied on to move thse ruins, Getting the Best of a Combine.

He went to the ecity strictly incogn:to and, after inquiring prices, found a\ot of supplies which were offered to bim as a private individual at about 40 per cent less than the price agreed on by the combina- tion. While he was bargaining for the supplies at the reduced rate the deslers were keeping a strict watch for one "'Clerk bourne’’ of Aiameda, who they haa been told was 1n the market for supplies and for whose benefit the prices werc 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.
