Officers H. McMurray of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Chil- dren and T. J. Coleman of the Society | for the Suppression of Vice had ad- | vised McHugh to take the little girl | and her ter, aged 8, to the Youth’'s | Directory, 2020 Howard street. It was then that McHugh’'s son made the | brutal remark which is worthy of his sire. The story of McHugh's neglect of his children was only partially told in yesterday’s Call. The officers visited the cottage, fully determined to re- move the two youngest children. No one was at home but McHugh’s oldest boy, an impudent and precocious youngster. He said that his father, with the three other children, had gone to the doctor’'s to have Mary's face treated. An inspection of the squalid quarters where the father and four children have camped was made. The small bedroom in the rear, which is entered through a window, present- €d a much cleaner appearance than on Monday evening when visited by the officers. It had been ventilated, and | much of the dirt and rubbish which | littered the floor removed. The filthy bedclothes were arranged with some pretense of order. No effort, however, had been made to clean up the cellar, a dark, noisome hole, fertile in filth and pregnant with disease. Probably there is not a more nauseating spot in San Francisco than this cellar. In this vile hole Mec- | Hugh cooked his meals at irregular | intervals, leaving his children to take | care of themselves. Yesterday the offi- cers found nothing in the feod line in this den but stale bread and a piece of rank-smelling corned beef, uncooked, which was tucked away on a beam. The place was so foul that the offi- cers were driven away before com- pleting their search. On reaching the front of the cottage they were con- fronted by McHugh and three of his children, returning from the doctor's, as he stoutly affirmed. The children were about to be taken from this unnatural parent when Mrs. Hunter, quite a prepossessing woman, who resides at 3773 Seventeenth street, | s#aid that she would take charge of| them temporarily. She assured the | officers that they wou:d be washed | and given nourishing food. | It w a pitiful sight to see how the emaciated and starved little thing with bleeding face clung to Mrs. Hun- ter as she took it into her arms. McHugh owns the cottage. He rents all the rooms except the small one in the rear. He receives $38 a month from the tenant. With many attestations | of a father's love McHugh assured the | officers that he would build another room in the ecellar for the children. | They emphatically told him that such an apartment wouldn’t do; he must provide another room upstairs for them. This McHugh promised to do. 1t is possible that the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children will ask the courts to appomnt it guardian for the children.

AR SRONNMNL N AR NN required in ecyclery registers when wheels are rented. Later the wheel was sold in a courftry town and Mal- grim disappeared for a time. The po- lice located him after some trouble and finally placed him behind the bars. The usual charge when a bicy- cle thief is apprehended is petty lar- ceny, the courts having repeatedly re- ;uud to value a machine at more than 50. In Malgrim’'s case, however, there seemed to be a clear basis for a charge of forgery, and it was decided to make an example of the slippery thief if pos- sible. A clear case was made out and Malgrim went across the bay to re- pent of his evil ways or plan more cteals. Since his conviction the police have been looking up his record and have piled up a score that places the convicted man in a very bad light. It was first discovered that during the week prior to his arrest he had been released from the County Jail, where he had served a term for petty larceny, his offense conslsting in steal- ing a bicycle from a local dealer. Later advices from interior towns showed that Malgrim was wanted in several localities for stealing wheels. His method of operation was to go into a town, hire a machine from each of the local dealers during the same day, ride them to a convenient point and then ship them to some distant locality where they could be easily dis- posed of. This scheme was resorted to in San Jose, Sacramento, Stockton and this city, and it 1s calculated that Malgrim cleaned up several hundred dollars from his nefarious transac- tions. The dealers are determined to renew their efforts to have the stealing of bi- cycles made & felony. At the last Legislature a bill was introduced, making the theft of horses and cows a felony, and the dealers tried to have bicycles included. Their efforts seemed in a failr way to prove successful until a member from the rural districts moved to amend the bill by including chickens in the provisions of the bill making the theft "of live stock and wheels a felony. This, of course, made the bill a sub- ject for ridicule, and its opponents had little trouble in defeating it. she will construct two etores on the vacant spots on each side of the thea- ter entrance. The lot is 68:9 feet frontage by 175 feet depth. The prop- erty was purchased about two years ago by Mrs. Clark for $147,500, and has now a mortgage on it of 0, bearing interest at 6 per cent. This mortgage will be transferred to propertyon Mar- | ket and Howard streets. Mrs. Greevewald has purchased the lot and five-story and basement store at 117 Market street from Mrs. Clark for $120,000, making the actual amount of cash changing hands small. Con- siderable time has been taken to con- summate this sale, the first negotia- tions in the matter taking place some time ago. Last Friday a deed was recorded transferring the property on the south corner of Ifoward and Ninth streets from Mrs. E. H. S8hroder toS. Richards. a San Jose capitalist. There are seve- ral buildings on the lot, which fronts | prop | mentous question, and ladies and gen- 100 feet on Ninth street and 185 on Howard street, bringing In a monthly rental of $700. In addition to this pur- chase, costing Richards $100,000, he bought from Mrs. Shroder the place known as Redwood farm, consisting of 426 acres of farming land in the vicin- ity of Redwood City, with a residence probably worth $10,000. This was sold for $75,000. On her part Mrs. Shroder took 100 acres of orchard land on the Story road, near San Jose, for $50,000. The sales were consummated under the direction of Easton, Eldridge & Co. of this city and Wooster & Whitton of San Jose, the firm of G. H. Umbsen & Co. assisting. Renting and leasing are reported very fair, but the btuilding line does not as yet show much improvement. Dealers are confident that times will quickly improve with the advent of the New Year and that properties of all kinds will sell more readily, though they do not expect better prices than now obtainable for some time to come, as the market is glutted.

The belles and beaux who are to| move through the stately measures of | the minuet at the Columbia pageant for the benefit of the Children’s Hos- pital, to be held at the California Theater on the evenings of January 3, 4 and 5, met for a last rehearsal at the elegant home of W. F. Whittier, corner of Jackson and Laguna streets, last | evening. Mrs. Pope as usual had charge of the exhibition, and the dancers tripped through the graceful measures without hitch or trouble. At the previous meeting the manipulation of the tiny fans of the period 1782 caused the lady participants no end of trouble, but last evening they had learned com- plete control of the dainty bits of lace and spangles and ivory, and the effect was as perfect and pleasing as it was coquettish and fetching. All the lady dancers wore a pretty evening gown, but even the stiff full dress of 1887 detracted not a bit from the natural charm of the dancers and the dance. Of course, with the minuet partici- pants, now that they have conquered the sweeping courtesies of the dances, the all absorbing topic at present is dress.

A Wild Animal Is Pursued to Its Death on the Dome. The strangest fox hunt ever known took place in the east wing of the City Hall yesterday. By some unknown means a silver gray fox found its way to the roof of the City Hall and was discovered by the copyists in the Recorder’s office on a balcony about half way up the dome, trotting around and looking for a means of escape. Copyist Charles O'Byrne first ob- served the animal walking along the stone coping and called his fellow em- ployes to assist him in capturing it. An exciting chase resulted, the fox | having somewhat the best of the race. He was finally cornered, however, and to escape the custody of his would-be captors, leaped from the dome to the stone pavement below, a distance of nearly fifty feet. When picked up by the copyists the fox was in its last gasps and expired within a few moments. The body has been placed in the hands of a taxi- | dermist, and when mounted will be placed in the Recorder’s office as a sou- venir of the queer experience of the copyists. ‘Whom the fox belonged to or how it reached the Hall roof is still an un- solved mystery. —_————— Griffo on the Warpath. “Young” Griffo visited this city yester- day and Imbibed so freely that his man- ager had some difficulty to keep the cast- off from doing damage.

THAT COMMON TROUBLE ACID DYSPEPSIA OR SOUR STOMACH. Now Recognized As a Cause of Serious Disecase. Acid dyspepsia, commonly called heartburn or sour stomach, is a form of indigestion resulting from fermen- tation of the food. The stomach being too weak to promptly digest it, the | food remains until fermentation be- gins, fllling the stomach with gas, and a bitter, sour, burning - taste in the mouth is often present. This condition soon becomes chronic and being an every day occurrence is given but lit- tle attention. Because dyspepsia is not immediately fatal, many people do nothing for the trouble. Within a recent period a remedy has been discovered prepared solely to cure dyspepsia and stomach troubles. It is known as Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets and is now becoming rapidly used and prescribed as a radical cure for every form of dyspepsia. Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets have been placed before the public and are sold by druggists everywhere at 50 cents per package.
