4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1897. LOVE WoN FOR ER A TITLE Portland Girl Now the Bride of Graf von Esterhazy. Miss Bermingham to Preside in the Cas le cf a Foreign Nobleman. Her 'Husband a Cousin of the Prince Soon to Wed Lillian Langtry. PORTLAND, Or., Oct. 2—Aceording to| a leiter received hers by William B‘or-‘ bach last. Wednesday ' Portiand is now | also weli up in the list with New York in | the supplying of wives for European 1o- | blemen of hizh degree, This city, how- ever, bas this advantage over New York | in that the fair daughiters of Orégon were | not sought for their wealth, but their personality won the bearts of the men | who married them. | | The first Oregon girl to become the wife of a man belonging to one of the most dis- | tinzuished and historic families of Krance was Miss Mattie . Mitchell, a daughter of ex-United States'Senator: John H. Mitch- ell, who contracted a very happy matri-| monial allianee with a French duke, and siie was not required to bring him a dot. This was so sreatly at varianc: with the procedure ‘of - the girls who marry for titles only, their families p.yine miiiions | in American. coin for the so-called dis- tinctian, thatit was worthy of note, The . other -Portland girl, who in June | last contracted “an eyen more brilliant marriage, is Miss'Eva Bermingham, who up to the latter part of 1886 Iived in a'mod- e-t cottage near Fulton Psrk with ber mother and elder brotber. -The letter re- ferred to contains some Vienna newspaper chippings giving & brisf account ‘of the marriags of Graf Estefhazy, a nephew of Prince Esterbazy, one of thie richest of the German-speaking. nobility, to Miss Eva * Bermingham; a beautiful and highly ac- complisted American, **possessing ail the graces requisite to preside over any princely palece in the Austrian em pire.” | The brige is regisiered as ‘‘a native of | Portiana, Oregon, United Siates of Amer- | ic Transiated the newspaper clippings Tea “The wedding was celabrated with- out the pomp usually attending the Ester- hazy marriages. This was at the request of the present Countess Esterhazy, because of the quite recent deatn of her mother. All told there were bat fifty of the most distinguished nobles of the empire asked | 10 witness this union of two loving hearts. | His Majesty. the Emperor, was repre- | sented by Aia-de-Camp Baron von Stein- metz.” The letter adds thatthe Berminghams— mother and dauighter—had been living in | Vienna ‘since 1894, arriving at that city irom: Dresden, whers Miss Bermingham had studied for several years at a con- | seivatory of ‘music. Her phenomensi| soprano voice soon gained recognition in the Austrian capital and she was engaged | to sing atafterncon and evening recep- | tions.of the most exclusive aristocrats in Viennsa. At one of these receptions Graf | Esterhazy. met Miss Bermingham last winter, and that meeting culminated in the June wedding. - The uncle by mar-| riage of this Oregon bride is the prince wbo, if current report is true, will soon wed Mrs, Langtry. The Countess Esterhazv was born where Tenth sireet, bstween Washington and Stark, now is, -about - twenty-eight or twenty-nine vears ago. At that time her father was, in a-small way, engaged inthe | sbip chandlery business. He came here | from B8an Francisco about a year before | that, but died very soon a!ter the birth of | hisdaughter. He left some means, and his widow, her son and baby daughter | went back to San Francisco.. There Mrs. Bermingham increased the littie money her husband left her in a few fortunate stock speculations, and in 18%4 she and her children returned here, purposing to make Portland their permanent home. The death of her son in Seattle in the summer oI 1886 chianged Mrs. Bermingham's plans and she and her daughter went to Europe, where they remained. They maintained a desultory correspondence with a few in- | timate friends here, who may ere this| have n.eurd fof Miss Bermingham’s *‘grand partl.” CLAIMS 11S H.NE WAS ROBBED.

Mining Expert Felix Berry of Denver Urowned in San Francisco River. CLIFTON, Ariz., Oct. 2.—A few days ago Fel.x Berry, wuo has bsen camping near Evans Po.nt for the past year or more, started for this city on horseback, in com- pany with Alfred Gariand. They reached the San Francisco River at a point below the 0.d Coprer King smelter and started to cross. Berry’s horse when in mid- stream struck a drift of quicksand, and in trying to extricate itself (he animai floun- dered badly, water and then falling with its full weight upan hir. The fail of the horse broke Berry's leg. After some strucgling he freed himself the saddle, but although a good swimmer he was unable to gain the shore against the strong carrent. He drifted a hundred feet or more and then sank be- neath the water and into the quici in the presence of young Garlund. latter barely managed trescherous quicksand, but was unable to et near enough to Berry to render him any assistance. A common yellow dog that had followed Garland swam out to the borse, and taking tie bridle in bis mouth led the frightened animal to a place of safety. A farmer | driving past in a wagon saw the accident, but was powerless 1o render auy assist- ance. Garland led Barry's riderless horse back to Evans Point, and at once Arthur Evans and John H. Cody left for the scene of the casualty to search for the body. A little later L. W. Tevis and a parly set out -on the sanie mission. - All afforts to recover the body were fruitiess, however, and Lo furtber attempts will be made until the swollen stream falls to its:normal level. Felix Berry was a mining expert who came here 10 examine properties for D. H. Mcflitt and others of Denver, Colo. On Berry’s person was a $200 watch and con- siderable money. LT PRESIDENT EDWARDS DEPOSED. Head of the University of Washington Qusted for = Teaching Materialism. SEATTLE, Wasm, Oct. 2.—The Board of Regentsof the University of Washing- ton to-day dismissed President W. F. Edwards, charging him - with insubor- dination. ~Professor C. F. Reeves was elected president pro tem. The vote dis- missing President Edwaras stood: For aismissal, 4; against, 2. Regant Housion was absent. ‘Those opposing dismissal were Regents Hayden and Kine. President Edwards, in speaking of the action of the regents, said: “The present crisis in the University of Washington is due solely to a misunder- standing of circumstances by some mem- bers of -the board and the deliberate plot- | ting of others to bring about my removal as president of the university. 1 deny in toto the charges of insubordination and changing the catalogue, or that siudents have been incited to revolt by me.” Regent Hayden was directed by the board to teke immediate steps to find a suitable man to become president of the univer-ity and report to the board. The question of how many credits should be required for graduation degrees and di plomas was referred to the committee o instruction to be taken up with the fac- ulty of the university next week. The facts that credits were reduced from 200 in 1896 to 180 in 1897 has occa- sioned tbe opposilion to creaits for physi- cal exercises, and it is believed if the credits were restored to 200 as a requir ment for graduation no such objection would occur. The upheaval in the facuity of the Uni- versity of Washingion was caused by the issue: “Is man controlled by a divine soul or the human brain?” President Edwards. who was formerly of Ann Arbor, was really dismissed for teaching mate- rialism. - HER RUNDEKEDIB BIRTHDAY, Mra.

Lost a Bride at the Last Moment Because He Had No Wed- ding Ring. 103 ANGELES, Cav, Oct. 2.—Miguel Linares is plaintiff in a somewhat unique breach of promise suit. He asks $20,000 damages from the lady who was his prospective biite and who was to have brought him a furtune of $100,000. Linares owns a smali lemon orehard abtout six miles from this city and is a widower, having lost his wife but a few months ago. The delendant is Mercedes Valdez, a widow of about 65 years and the owner of valuable real estate in the hear. of the business portion of the city, her possessions having a frontage on Spring and High streets, between Temple ‘ana As in most cases of this kind there are two versions of the story of the broken courtship. That of Linares is partly to'd in the complaint filed by his attorneys, in which it 1s declared that, relying upon the promise of Mrs. Valdez to marry him on August 15 Linares procured the proper license from the clerk of the Su- perior Court. The widow had arranged that the wed- ding should take place at her house, so thither Pinares repaired with the said license, and in the presence of the invited guests offered to perform his contract of marriage. “But,"” says the complaint, “‘the defend- ant then and there refused to consum- mate said contrict of marrage, snd in a rude and insolent manner ordered the plaintiff and bis invited friends to imme- diately leave her house.” The complaint, after reciting the will- ingness of the plaintiff to marry defend- ant, concludes as foliows: “The defendant without any just canse or reason broke her said contract as here- tofore stated, and in the presence of in- vited guests of plaintiff and defendant openly refused to perform her said con- By the breach of her said contract wiih the plaint:ff he has been damagea in the sum of $:0,000. Wherefore plaintiff prays judgment for the sum of $20,000 damages and for cosis of suit.”” Linares’ legal representative supplied tome further interesting details of the sudden change of heart on the part of his former fiancee. The coupie had known each other for about twenty-five years, but the courtshin extended over a very short period. Linares has a little lemou orcoard worth, he claims, about $1000. 1his is all the property he possesses. On the day fixed for the wedding a din- ner, prepared in the finest styla of the cul- inary art, was spread at the home of the promisea briie. 1t included wines in greal abundance. All the guests haa as- sembled and the ceremony was about to begin when the groom di:covered that he had forzotien the wedding ring. He pro- posed to go to his ranch for it; but his forgetfulness cost him Lis bride and her fortune. Mrs. Valdez became angry and refused to listen to_any excuses on ths part of Linares. She declared that it he dia not think enough of her to have brought the ring she did not think Le wouid muke the proper husband for ner. She declined to have the ceremony go on and ordered her betrothed ana all the assembled guests from the house. William R. Burke is the bu-iness agent es that she is a kind-hearted oly woman with little knowl- edge of the world and is easily imposed upon. During the last illness of the wife of Linares Mrs, Valdez advanced him small sums of money at various times, supplied the necessary medicines and even provided L'nares with clothing. Burke claims that the proposed marriags was a scheme concelved by some friend of Linares, who saw = chancs to work upon the sympathies of the aged woman to toe benefit of Linares and himself. Burke further declares that during the courisnip Lnares endeavored to sell his litile farm to Mrs. Valdez for §500, but on his advice she declined to make the purchase, as in his estimation it was not worth more than §50. Burke stated tbat he knew nothing of the contemplated marriage and would not bave interfered had he been aware of what was going on. He further stated that the cause of Mrs. Valdez's refusal to have tbe ceremony proceed was the way in which Linares and his iriends conducted themselves. They were coarse and bois- terous in their behaviour, he said, and Mrs. Valdez, sering with & woman’s in- stinct what wouid be her probable future life as the wife of the plaintiff, put a sum- mary siop to the procecdings. - WATER COMPANIES AT WAR, Los Angeles Suit Involving the Legality of the Rialto Irrigation District. LOS ANGELES, CarL., O:t. 2.—Another bill in equity concerning the legality of an irrigation district has been filed in the United States court. This time the Riaito irrigation district of San Bernar- dino County is involved, and ircidentally the SBemi Tropic Land and Water Com- pany. The Chicala Water Company brings suit against the Ria.to irrigation district, in Ban Bernardino and its officers and directors, alleging that the irrigation dis- trict has no legai existence and that all itsacis and all the bouds issued are nuil and void.

Y., Oct. 2.—The Bostons (league champions) and the Brooklyus brought the season of 1897 to a close at East- ern Park this afternoon. Incidentally, it was the lest leagus game that will ever be played in Brooklyn, for when the clubs begin their bettle in 1898 Brooklyn will be part and par- cel of Greater New York. The weather to-day was not the kind that is comfortable to base- ball fans, being cnilly, but in spite of this more than 2000 persons assemblea with the intention of giving the braneaters a sendcff. But those who came to the grounds for this | .purpose returncd home disapoointed, for Man- ager Seely had shipped Long, Lowe, Tenney, Collins, Bergen and ali his pitchers excepting Lewis and Stivetts to Boston immediately after Thursday’s game was finished and the champlonship was assured. The Bostons lined up to-day hardly recog- nizable as s team, Outside of the battery Hamiiton wss the only player in his proper rosition. Brooklyn was not much better off. They had to bring Hanivan from Newark to cover left field. Etill, Brooklyn had the tetter team, which accounts for their easy victory. Lewis, who is slated to go against Baltimore in one of tne Temple cup series, did not exert himseli to any greatextent, which accounts for the number of hits. Fisher had all of the Bostons excepting Siahl aud Stivetts guessing. The latter made himseif solid with the crowd by cracking out a siugle, triple and home rnn. His fourth crack would have resulted ina {hree-bagger but tor & wonderiul one-hsunded catch by Hanivan. Griffin led at the stick for Brookiyn.

Less than 200 persons saw the contest, which was payed under the lowering skies and in the teeth of a dreary east wind that caused the spectators to shiver on the benches and heartily wish the geme ended beiore it had fairly begun. There was an_occasional burst of applause from a few of the “old guard” who came ‘d. n see the end of the season's playing from a small but energetic body of W inglonians who had places in the grand stand bsck of the visitors’ bench, but aside from this there was no enthusiasm. Bresne. han started into piteh for the Senators, but the Orioles fell upon him in the second inning ior three earned runs and he gave way 1o the attenuated Mr, Swain, who did much better during the remainder of the game. The visitors’ run in the first wns a clean ca: of steal upon Seclbach’s part, that energetic young man having run in from third while Amole aud Clarke were musing over their agility in baving put McGuire out st firsi, When they aroused themselves Se.bach was safe The home team then took the lead and hela it until the fourth inning, when the visitors found Amole’s pitching to their liking and three doubies and two singles broughtin four runs. After that no one seemed 1o take the slightest Interest in the game, and Umpire Harst called it at the end of the e:ghth inning sithoutany apparent reason otber than that he was tired of it. All others concerned felt the same wuy about it, and the season ot 1897 closed with a defeat for the “three-time win- ners.” The score: Baltimore. W axhinetol Bateries— Amole and Swalm and Mcuuire.

There Is a Deficit of $94,000, and the City May Not Run in Debt. Financla! Dilemma Caused by the Fallure to Provide for Cur- rent Expenses. SAN JOSE, CaL, Oct. 2.—Unless strin- gent mceasures of retrenchment are adopted at once by the City Council the city zovernment will be tankrupt and its credit serious!y impaired. Under the present expense account there will he a | deficit of $04,000 for the six months end- ing January 1. This financial dilemma has been brought about by the new charter, which limits the city tax rate to $1 for every $100 of taxable property. When the new charter was framed the Board of Freeholders failed to make pro- vision for the running expenses of the city for the half year immediately fol- lowing the inauguration of the new char- ter. The matter was not forgotten but was passed over intentionaily, as it was feared that any attempt to raise or ex- pend money outside the dollar limit would | defeat the adoptior: of the charter. When the charter went intoeffect on July 1 all the funds were practically exhausted, and this has necessitated the city being run on a credit system until the next tax money becomes due in December. None of the city employes have received cash since July, but have been paid in warrants, which they have been com- peiled to snhave at the banks. Unless some system of retrenchiment is adopted and money raised s> Lhat the city can start at the beginning of next year free from debt 1t will be necessary to lag be- hind in its pavments for the next ten years, or until the cash basis fund is sufi- cient to meet all indebtedness. The new charter does not allow the city to run into debt, so retrenchment and economy will be imperative. S George Acherver's Will Filed. SAN JOSE, CaL, Oct. 2.—The will of George Scherrer, the pioneer brewer, who died in this city last weck, was filed for probate to-day.

According to the ancient mythology, when Hercules wrestled with Anteus, every time he was thrown he jumped up again stronger than ever, gaining fresh power from every contact with the earth. Hercu- les conquered him at last only by holding him in the air away from the source of his strength, until he grew weaker and weaker and finally be- came exhausted. Antzus is a perfect symbol of mankind. Na- ture is the real source of health and vigor. ' The closerwe keep to Nature’slaws the stronger and healthier we grow. ‘When we get away from them we are sure to be overcome by weakness and discase. N When sick- nessgets hold of a mian the only remedy to really cure-him must be a natural remedy. It must work according to matural laws and bring him. right in touch with Nature.. Any unnatural stimulus or mere temporary ‘appetizer” does no per- manent good to a person who is debilitated and “run-down.” In these conditions the most perfect, nat- wural strength-builder.is Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It acts directly upon the natural nutritive processes, and creates solid, permanent strength and vital force in the same way that Nature creates them. It capacitates the stomach and liver te vitalize the circulation and feed the nerve. centres with pure, healthy blood. This is exactly Nature’s way of curing nervous ex- haustion, debility, insomnia; and neuralgia. During the “ past 30 .years; Dr. Pierce’s medicines have become recognized standard remedies throughout the world. His ‘‘Pleasant Pellets’ ate ‘a. perfect and per- manent cure for constipation. Sister Eliza L. de Falcom, of Corpus Christi, Nueces Co., Texas, writes: . This is to tell you that T have been il for twenty-one years and w; finally cured by your medicines * Golden Medi- cal Discovery * and ‘Favorite Prescription.” - T was completely cured after taking the medicine. ™ HOPE SEEMED GONE Hl S BACK ACHED, his muscles were soft, his eye had lost its hue, his hair fell out; he was a miserable man. He was so irritable he would grind his teeth at the least provo- cation. A single stir or movement near him would bring on the jumps. He was afraid to look you in the face and afraid to do business with his best friend. One by one he had lost his friends, and his acquaintances would cease to bow. Yet, no one thought he was sick; but he was sick. He was so sick—so sick at heart—he had completely drained, exhausted, bankrupted his body. His violating the laws of nature and his dissipation and his reckless—yea, heedless— abuse had collapsed his frame. TO THIS MAN HOPE SEEMED GONE. But it was not so. The Hudson Doctors took him in hand and heroically labored with him. The Great Hudyan Remedy Treatment was used. Hudyan was administered in small particles and increased. After three months the man was a sight—he was a sight that no one would believe unless they knew the man. He was so thoroughly satisfied he wrote a testimonial letter for Hudyan and Hudson Medical : Doctors. You can see this testimonial letter and others if you wish.
