’ lators of the liquor ordinance snd it is THE SAN FRA ISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 23 5 3 MARRIED THE /AR OPERATOR Jerome Arendt Goes Off on a Long Trip to Sea. Miss Dodo Ubhoff, a Telephone Girl, Is Missing Too. Instead of Arranginz an Exile Papa Arcndt Probably Pisnned a Honeymoon. OaxLAND OFFI Fraxcisco CALL.E oadway, June 22. Miss Dodo Ubhoff, or Mrs. Jerome Arendt, who for a long while was cbiet operator at the Haywards telephone offices, is missing and notone of her friends know where she has gone. Her lover, or husband, is also missing, though no one de of his immediate family knows his i And noone knows that they have been married for four months. This latest sensation will startle the two owns of Haywards and Pleasanton when hey read the news to-morrow, for there s ot a person in either town that does 10t know both the young people, and evergbody knew that they were deeply in love with each other and that the match was bitterly opposed by young Arendt’s er, who is the most prominent mer- an: and one of the wealthiest men of asanton. The romance begins with the night be- fore the big Republican barbecue at Hay- wards last November. On that night there was a ball at Alvarado and Miss Ubhoff and Jerome Arendi were there. After the ball they announced their en- gagement and all the tonguesof a thou- sand gossips started to talk about it. Dodo Ubhoff made many friends while shouting “Hello!” and was, without ex- ception, the prettiest blonde in Hay- wards. She was of a charming disposi- tion and many jealous eyes were turned on the youth from Pieasanton, who was regarded somewhat as a pirate for stealing the belle of Haywards. She lived with her mother and sister, Lulu, who is also a telephone operator. Jerome Arendtisa very good “catch.” He had prospects and was very popular. When his father learned that he was at- tached so warmly to Miss Dodo there wes trouble. He promised his son anything f be would but break off the engagement. Finally, Arendt senior conceived the idea of sending his son on a long foreign tour, with the hope that he would soon forget all abou: his love for the young lady at Haywards. Jerome did not offer much resistance, d preparations were made fora liberal p to Honolulu or Australia. The idea ly pleased Jerome, and as the day approached he seemed more and more pleased, to the great joy of his father. On Monday of last week Jerome started on his voyage, and his relatives htand hoped they had heard the of Miss Dodo as a prospective daugh- Pl The next day it was reported that Dodo i It was supposed that she he family of her uncle in San Francisco, but inquiry showea that this was not so. Search was made everywhere, but nothing has since been learned of her. “We have no idea where my sister is,” said Miss Lulu to-night. *“She went off na Ican only guess where she is at this e. Itistoo bad that the facts have be- | come public, for it will be so painful to | both of them. They are both sensitive, | and I am very sorry the secret is one no | longer.” It has been asceriained that last Feb- | ruary Jerome and Dodo went off on a| quiet day’s excursion and were married across the bay. As they are both of age 1hey were at liberty to “please themselves. | Tiere seems to be no doudt now that Mr. | and Mrs. Jerome Arendt are together, and | 1hat when Papa Arendt was pianning for | vear’s exile he was reality making preparations for an elaborate honeymoon. | FOR THE SOUTH SEAS, Prominent Endeavorers and Others Ready to Go to Work on the Morning Star.

The contents of the letter were told to the managers of the camp-meeting, and it was decided to release Rev. E. E. Ham- aud irom bis promise and to substitute some one else on the programme. As little as possible was said about tve mat- ter, but it ts stated by some members of the congregation that there is more to follow. Rev. E. E. Hamand is pastor of the Goodenough was in charge for many years, and which he vacated to enter actively into ranching and politics. Rev. Mr. Hamand has been very successful in his ministry, but many of his flock object to his present attitude. The Spiritualist magazine, which is cir- culated at the camp-meeting, contai article entitled ‘Dares to Accent Truth,” and it pays a lengithy compl ment to his career since he worked hi way through coliege. The article says in conclusion: Since graduation he has held good pastor- fellowship he now works. He was ordained to this ministry at Plainfield, Iil, on the 21st of Januery, 1894. “Mr. Hamand is one of those Dersons who uare to accept the truth, where. ever it may be found, and is no stranger to the manifestations of spiritual phenomena. Ray Beinier, secretary of the Californi Uunlon Spiritnalist camp-meeting, says Rev. E. E. Hamand is already well nd- vanced along spiritualistic lines. *“When nhe told us of the letter from ihe congre- gation,” said Mr. Bernier, ‘‘we agreed with him thatit woula be best to make a change, as We were no more anxious for any unpleasantness than was his congre- gation. Mr. Hamand has discovered the truth and he is not afraid to teli of it.”” GREAT DANGER. in the Fuse Works at Melrose Creates a Small Panie, OAKLAND, CaL., June 22.—A blaze in the fuse works at Melrose startlea the neighborhood about 10 o’clock this morn- ing. 1t was expected that the powder magazine would be ignited for eome time but promptaction on the part of the white iielp prevented a catastrophe. .The Chi- namen became panic-stricken and were useless in fighting the flames, Stealing Electric Light Globes.

Reports of Revival of Trade Come From All Parts of the Country. Exp'rt’s Op.nion cn the Advantages ani Disadv nt:ges of a Missioa Z o cgical G.rden First-class and well-payine business property and choice second-class business property under steady rental is the secur- ity attracting the particular atiention of investors and speculators in realty inter- ests at the present time. The less sanguine part of the realty in- vestors seem to have made up their minds that business has settled into normal conditions and will henceforth present small fluctuations. This, how- ever, has always been the case in the his- tory of the couatry in the latter part of every period of depression. Many are the causes that are assigned why it would bs impossible to revive the flush times of a former period, and that the ppportunities of the past wiil never return. The majority of the people believe that if they were born a generation sooner they would have easily amassed an independent for- tune. The day, however, for large profits in real estate is not passed, never to return. There is already an actual revival in business ail over the country. It is only four years since the present de- prossion in real estate interests as well as all other branches of business set in, but & good many people have conciuded that it would never end. It is as certain to end as all other previous depressions have been certain to end. As the country seems to lose millions of dollars through a reported deprectation of values, 0 will it gain through the almost im- perceptible recovery of values when the spokes in the wheel of prosperity begin to point upward.

WHICH CURED HIM AFTER EVERY- THING ELSE FAILED, Painful diseases are bad enough, but when a man is slowly wasting away with nervous weakness the mental forebodings are ten times worse than the most severe pain. There is noletup to the mental fering day or night. Sleep is almost impossible, and under such a strain men are scarcely responsibie for what they do. For years the writer rolled and tossed on the troubled sea of sexual weakness until it was a question whether he had not Detter take a dose of poison and thus end all his throubles. ~But providential inspiration came to his aid {n the shape of a combination of medicines that not only completely restored the general health, but enlarged his wesk, emaciated parts to natural size and vigor, and he now declares that any who_will 'take the trouble to send his name and address may have the method of this wonderful treatment free. Now, when I say free I mean absolutely without cost, because I want every weakened man 1o get the benefit of my experience. Tam not a philantnropist, nor do I pose as an enthusiast, but there are thousands of men ‘hel0. | suffering the mental tortures of weskened manhood who would be cured at oni they but get such a remedy as the one thac eured me.
