Major Edie Returns to Gare for the Sick and Claim His Bride. I T is with a double pleasure that Surgeon Major Guy L. Edle of the United States Volunteers is journeying to this city from the East to assume charge of the Divislon Hospital. Not only has his ability been recognized in that he has been placed at the head of the Division Hospital, which means that he will succeed to the control of the General Military Hospital that is to be erected, but Major Edie has also the pleasant realization that he is coming to the city of his lady love, whom, early in De- cember, he will lead to the altar. A few days ago soclety recelved with pleasure the an- nouncement of the engagement of Major Edie to Miss Clemen- tine Kipp, one of the most charming and popular of San Francisco's many charming girls. The exact day of the wed- ding has not been determined upon, but ft will occur some time during the early winter.

When the war broke out Major Edie was in Alaska, but was ordered home and sent to the East for duty with the rank of major of volunteers. When it was decided to build the general military hospital here Colonel Middleton, chief surgeon of the department, se- lected Major Edie as the officer for the head of the hospital. He has been ordered here, and will for the present relleve Major Matthews from duty at the Divis Hospital, as the latter has applied for a sick leave. Major Edie will reach here this week. Personally the major is a gentleman of charming individuality. He is ex- ceedingly approachable, and his easy and kind manners have made a host of triends for him both in and out of the army. 0 0% X0 108 08 308 308 306 30 308 508 30F 306 308 06 0¥ 30 30 30F 306 30% 0¥ 308 306 3¢ X0k ¢ HER DIAMOND EARRINGS CAN NOT BE FOUND Julia Keeley’s Prop- erty Missing. $2108 0P 00 CHORCE 0 0008 08 08 03 08 00 0100008 108 00 0808 308 107 0000 306 00 0 0000 G104 300 400 100 1 08 408 108 0 S8 S0 10 ¢ 08 08 0K ¥ 00 CECHIO 3000 0HOECRICE 08 CF 308 108 206 30 308 208 308 308 306 300 308 306 300 300 30 308 30 00 00 30 0K 00 e 0nsonCe 30 406 308 0E 308 0 30 30 30 feg=gagegage agalnst Mr. Deuprey for $75, claiming he owed him that amount for saving woman’s life.

The following story is commonly re- lated as true in France. Old Harpagon was fast approaching his end. His suf- ferings were very great, but he com- forted himself with the thought that as he could not eat there was so much saved, at any rate. “Well, doctor,” he said, in a feeble voice, “how long have I yet to live?” “Only half an hour. Would you like me to send for somebody—a clergyman, for {nstance?” Harpagon was silent for a few mo- ments; he passed his hand over his chin, bristling with a grizzly beard of several days’ growth, when a sudden thought struck him, and turning to the doctor he gasped excitedly: “‘Quick—send for—for a barber The barber soon afterward arrived with his shaving tackle. Harpagon, whose voice was getting weaker, asked him: “You—charge— twopence—for shaving?"” “That's the yrice,”” was the answer. “And—how much—is it—for shaving: a corpse?”’ The barber paused a moment, and then said, “Five shillings.” “Then—shave—me—quickly,” stam- mered old Harpagon, casting a feverish glance at the watch which the doctor still held in his hand. He was too feeble to utter another word, but the doctor understood the mute appeal and sald: “Fifteen minutes more!” A smile of satisfaction stole over the features of the patient. The barber set to work and in a very short time fin- ished his task. notwithstanding the nervous twitchings that distorted the face of the dying man. When ...: oper- ation was over old Harpagon uttered a sigh of relief and was heard to whisper: “That’s a good thing—four shillings— and ten pence—saved!” and he breathed his last. —e—————— THE CROWN OF THORNS. The thorny nature of much of the vege- tation of Palestine must have been a sub- ject of remark to the early pilgrims from THE POLICE INVESTIGATING HER SISTER SAYS THAT THE BODY WAS ROBBED. 0’Shea, Her Slayer, Asks Permission to Attend Her Funeral, Which Request Was De- nied. The police have been asked to inves- tigate the disappearance of a pair of diamond earrings which are supposed to have been stolen from the body of Julla Keeley, the unfortunate young woman who was shot and killed by | Dan O'Shea, a steamship fireman, last Saturday night. The sister of the dead woman is con- vinced that the jewelry was stolen from her ears while she lay in the cold embrace of death. Yesterday she visited Chief Lees and asked him to make a thorough investigation with a view of finding the culprit and incidentally the diamond earrings. Shortly after the murder Police Offi- cer Owens took charge of the body. He found a gold watch and chain with a diamond locket attached, which be- longed to the dead woman, lying on the bureau. He took charge of the jewelry and subsequently turned it over to De- tective Tom Ryan. The latter gave it to the Coroner, who has since returned it to the sister of the murdered woman. Several witnesses who saw the body just after the fatal shot was fired posi- tively declare that they did not see any | diamonds in her ears. One of them Europe; the underwood is dry and prick- | claims that he examined her head and iy, numerous small gray spinous bushes of | {f she wore earrings he would have Yiterium, hawthorn, bramble, dog rose, | noticed them. The sister of the de- uckthorn and the like abound, while the very oaks, as well as the acacias, are prickly. There would be no long search needed to obtain material for our Lord's crown of pain. The ordinary white thorn, or hawthorn, would bg less likely to have been actually employed, since the aifficul- ty of adapting any but the shorter sprays to the purpose, for the tree gets its botan- ical name of Crataegus from the Greek word for strength, in allusion to the toughness of its wood. It may have been one among the handful of various thorns gathered, and it belongs to the same fam- fiy as the apple, the traditional fruit, in many lands, of the tree of the fall, and therefore there was a poetical applicabil- ity in making it furnish this instrument of suffering to the Saviour. At Toulouse moreoyer, they preserve a thorn as a rellc from the crown which has been closely examined by the learned professor M. de Cloos. who considers it to be a specles of Syrian Cratacgus. Signor Pletro Savi of Pisa has also seen it, and is of the same opinion. Bartholinus thought that some such white thorn formed part, at least, of | the thorns collected for the purpose, and, of course, there is no reason why only one species should have been used. The Norman peasant of this day wears a sprig of hawthorn in his cap from the belief that it was once upon his Saviour’s brow, and this notion was very prevalent in medleval times. Many of its names will show this, such as Christdorn, still heard in Silesia; Calavru or Calaviru In Sar- dinfa: La Sainte or La Noble Epine In France; Hag, Halig or noly thorn in Eng- land, Denmark and Scandinavia, while its fruit and early leaves have also many sa- | cred associations. It is a common rustic saying that ‘“the hawthorn groans on Good Friday night.” as if still mindful of the share one of iis genus was forced to ceased, however, is convinced that the earrings were taken after the unfortu- | nate woman was murdered. She claims | that she frequently saw the diamonds | in her ears and according to her own | admission she invariably wore them after leaving the Baldwin Hotel, where she was employed. The police intend to make a thorough investigation with a view of finding out whether or not the body was desecrated after the woman was killed. Yesterday O’'Shea, who is charged with the murder of the woman, asked permission to attend her funeral. “I want to look upon her face before she is buried,” he tearfully remarked “I did not kill her; she knows I am in- nocent.” His request was denied, much to his disgust. O'Shea_still claims that he did not shoot Miss . Keeley. His attorney is preparing to make a desperate strug- gle to save his neck. The defense will be that the fatal pistol was lying on a table in the room, and as Miss Keeley entered she tried to get possession of it. O'Shea also endeavored to secure the revolver and in the struggle that followed the weapon was accidentally | discharged, the bullet striking her in the head, causing Instant death. The prisoner denies that he wrote the tell- tale letters which were found in his room. The police, however, claim they have ample evidence to show that the handwriting is the same as O’Shea’s. take in the dav's sad events; and 5 (ke I e rees are. the' “Momamrc: | FRANK LESLIE'S POPULAR MONTAHLY, 10 CENTS.

In all the mountain farmhouses of the pres- ent day in Norway weaving is still car- ried on as part of the regular housework and girls are emgflo)'ed to do nothing else, In_the early days it was the work of the Vikings’ wives and daughters to make large tapestries telling the story of the conquests made by their family heroes. These were hung in the great halls. of every home, together with the war weap- ons of the husband and the sons, and the tapestries are sald to have been ver; beautiful, Only vegetable dyes were used, and, while they lacked brilllancy, they made up for it in durability. A castle in Denmark coirtained a few of these rare specimens till a few years ago, when it burned down.

The “Hefting” Mayor’s Candidate for the .Important Office of Public Administrator Still Under Fire. No person must cause him- self to be registered or en- rolled in one county when his registration in another re- mains uncanceled. — Extract from election laws. 0000000 Edward L. Fitzgerald, who was selected by the “Hefting Boss,” Mayor Phelan, and by his Committee of One Hundred | purists as their candidate for the re- sponsible office of Public Administrator, is in dire distress. His name s, contrary to law, hard and fast upon the great registers of two coun- ties in this State. Notwithstanding des- perate efforts on his part to remove one of them they will remain for some time to come. He seeks the suffrage of the voters of this city, so it is the telltale records of Alameda County he would have changed to relieve him from a possible prosecution for violation of the State elec- tion laws. Frank C. Jordan, County Clerk of Ala- meda County, dictated the following statement yesterday: Mr. Dam, representing Mr. Edward Fitzger- ald, called on me yesterday afternoon and showed me a copy Of a letter purporting to have been written August 7, 1896, requestin me to cancel his registration in this county. at once made a very careful search of the rec- ords and failed to find any evidence of such let- ter or such cancellation. There isnothingof the kind on record. I then went to the registra- tion file of Precinct 11, Berkeley, and found the required aftfidavit of registration. There s no evidence that the reglstration was ever canceled or that this office was asked to cancel it. Nefther is there anything on the great register against Mr. Fitzgerala's name to indicate that such cancellation was asked for or made. Mr. Dam claimed that Mr. Fltz- gerald in answer to his letter received a cer- tificate of canceliation from this August, 1596, and that he took It to San Fran- clsco, and was_registered in ome of the pre- cincts of San Francisco. 0000000 | trustee office in | This was when Mr. | Hinton was Registrar, and Mr. Dam says that | it was lost or at least cannot be found, I have made a careful examination of all the records of my office and there is nothing what- ever to show that Mr. Fitzgerald changed his regiatration, he great register for this year is mnow closed, and is in the hands of the printers, and Mr. Fitzgerald will appear as a registered voter of Berkeley. I have no pewer to change this. Mr. Jordan's administration as County Clerk has been a model one—compliment- | ed by the business men of Oakland irre- | ngev:(lvc of party affiliation. It is absurd that Mr. Fitzgerald could have written to Mr, Jordan and the latter canceled his aeg!slration without some record being on 1 e Persons who have known Mr. Fitagerald for years were not surprised that he pro- duced the alleged copy of a letter—he is an adept at that game. That he can make any one believe his word is another matter. Registrar Biggy of this city was asked yesterday: “As Mr. Fitzgerald’s name does not appear legally on the San Fran- cisco_Register, can he hold office here?” The Registrar, who Is also a diplomat, would not discuss the matter. He was content to say: “The case, which is a serfous one, has been called to my at- tention and I have commenced an investi- gation.” The investigation has progressed to an examination of all certificates of cancella- tion received by him and the one in ques- tion, the one alleged to have been pre- sented to him by Mr. Fitzgerald, is not to be found. The deputies in the office have not had time to look over the old_ pre- cinct registration records, those of Mr. Hinton’s time, which are kept in tne storeroom. Tne Hegistrar says he will do his duty in the premises, no matter who is invoived in the investigation. He will send a deputy to Oakland to-day to confer with Mr. Jordan, and the deputy will then present the matter to him, Mr. Biggy, officially. He has an able lawyer investi- gating the case from a legal standpoint. The question was asked of the Regis- trar: “If you find that the name of K. L. Fitzgerald is illegally upon the great reg- ister of this city, what will be your action in the premises?” Whl follow the mandate of the law as I have done in many cases where have found that there has been {liegal registration,” was his reply. Lg'\as,'e Dam was at the County Clerk's offl Oesult of his search a poll list for Mr. Fi rald’s precinct in Berkeley was fo’l‘l:l%e, Pom which it does not appear that Fitzgerald voted there in 18%. District Attorney Snook advised that Dam be given an afidavit that such was the case, @nd this was done. This is the steg_ to- ward a technical clearing up of Mr. Fitz- gerald’s double registration. It does not remove the fact that his name appears on two great registers, however. Mr. Fitzgerald sent a representative to the city editor of The Call, yes- terday, demanding a retraction of cer- tain statements made against him. He awalited the return of the courier who carried his ultimatum, in a nearby saloon.

The injured man was taken 10 the hospital, where his wounds vrere dressed by Dr. Zabala. The shooting occurred in the second gallery of the theater during a perform- ance given under the auspices of the Gee Gong Tong, a society of Chinese Free e et tern desired. The main body is of !gme geometrical design, with a border of zig- Iag lines or blocks. Certain character- istics of these rugs and tapestries remind one of those made by the Navajo Indians.

Sergeant McMannus was direct- ly across the street from the thealer when the shooting occured, and seeing the Chinamen flock from the doors went to make an investigation. Mock Foo walked out of the theater and told the officer that he had been shot in the back by a man named Chin Noon. Further than this_he refused to make any state- ment. He was shot twice in the small of the back with a 4i-caliber revolver, one of the bullets passing entirely through the body and the other lodging under the skin in the abdomen, from where it was removed by the hospital surgeon. Mock Foo is a tailor, and while neither he nor his friends will give any expla- nation as to the cause of the shooting, it is believed by the police that this is the reopening of the old tailors’ union trou- ble. Ever since the fishers began to ar- | rive from the canneries in Alaska the gollce have been on the lookout for trou- le, and every suspicious Chinaman has been held up and searched. A number | of them have been found with new re- | volvers on thelr persons, and shooting has been expected every night. The af- fair of last night is only a starter and more shooting will be no surprise to the officers. A quarrel between two Chinamen on q! the ship Santa Clara, which reached port | yesterday, resulted in the stabbing of Geo Qui Die by Gow Sal. Neither man will state the cause of the quarrel, though | the affair was reported to the police by | friends of the wounded man. fficer Smith of the Harbor Station arrested Gow Sal last evening, and Geo Qui Die was taken to his home at 606 Washington street. He is wounded in the left tempie and shoulder and twice In the stomach. Both of the injured Chinamen are very low and their recovery is doubtful. ——— FIGHTER LAVIGNE IS HERE. The Clever Pugilist Will Doubtless Sign To-Day to Fight Tom Tracy. “Kid” Lavigne has arrived from his Eastern home in Saginaw for the pur- pose of meeting Tom Tracy in a twenty- round contest under the auspices of the National Club. The “Kid,” according to an engagement, was to have met the managers of the National Club at 8 o'clock last evening, but for some reason he failed to put in an appearance. In all probability he will sign articles to-day with Tom Tracy for the contest, which will be held in the very near future. It was rumored last evening that some athletic_club which is considered a rival to the National was trying to persuade Lavigne not to fight under the auspices of the National, but it can safely be sald that the lad from Saginaw will not be a party to any unprincipled proposi- tion which may mean the breaking up of the sport in this city. —_——————— MRS.
