It blew a living gale, and the vessel was swept again and again by the waves. When & hundred miles south-southeast of Flattery a heavy sea broke aboard, and Charles Richman, a quartermaster, was swept overboard and drowned. Last month Richman started East to spend the holidays with his relatives in Burmalo, N. Y., but changed his mind at Ogden, and, coming back, reshipped on the Queen for the last voyage. !

Attorney General Fitzgerald Moves to Dismiss the Suit Against the Reduction Works. Attorney General Fitzgerald has filed a request with the clerk of the Superior Court to dismiss the proceedings in the | case of the People vs. the Sanitary he- duction Works. In explanation he says that the attor- neys for the relator neglected to inform | him that tthe question of the highest bid- | der has already been determined and the | time in which to make an appeal has lapsed. This question he considered the | chief one in the case. The remaining point, the alleged unlawful exercise of the franchise of the Sanitary Reduction | Wor 1s convinced, from the testi- mony t the resuit of a mere per- | sonal private disagreement between | the individual scavengers and the Reauc- | tion Works. e Proposed Colonial Fair. The regular monthly meeting of the trustees of the Mechanics’ Institute last evening was devoted principally to the possibility of holding the contemplated Colonial fair next September at the Pa- vilion. President Ernest A. Denicke out- lined the purpose of the undertaking and declared that it was almost impossi the institute to obtain the nec hibits without aid. ' He institute combine with the sociation, the Agricultural A and other local commercial institutions | for the purpose of conjointly framing id to be forward- ed to Congress for a liberal appropriation to further and accomplish the proposed fair. On motion of one of the trustees a | resolution to place the four or five thou- | sand reference books, now kept under | lock and key, into general circulation was proposed and unanimously adopted. The following membe of the institute will be candidates for membership on the 1rd of trustees for the coming year, the election to be held on the 28th of next y: Walter N. Brunt, Ernest A Lewis C.

The contest over the election of Daniel O'Brien by Thomas E. Brophy, the candi- date who was defeated for the Assembly in the Thirty-first Assembly District, was taken up vesterday afternoon in Justice Barry's court. The successful candidate only won by a narrow margin and Brophy entered a protest on the grounds tnat gross frauds were perpetrated by design- ing and incompetent election officers, and that O'Brien’s nomination was made in an irregular manner. Leon E. Jones' pro- test over the seating of J. C. Wardell as Assemblyman from the Thirty-ninth As sembly District was partially heard by Justice of the Peace Kerrigan. Both mat- ters will be taken up again to-day. —— Bill Board Nuisance Checked. The billboard nuisance, which has re- cently assumed unusual proportions, has been stopped in its further growth. The ordinance recentlv passed by the Board of Supervisors was signed yesterday by Mayor Phelan and thus becomes a law. In anticipation of this the firms controlling the boards throughout the city have commenced to shave them down to the desired proportions. In addition to being a menace to life and limb, the boards were unsightly affairs and detract- ed from the beauty of the cit: - . To Protect Passengers. Captains J. K. Bulger and O. F.

ITS PATRONS MUST PAY IT NO UNSTAMPED MESSAGES MAY BE TAXEN BY THE COMPANY. Any Person Filing a Telegram With- out Affixing a Stamp Is Liable to a Fine of One Hun- dred Dollars. United States Circuit Judge Morrow filed an opinion yesterday on the demur- rer submitted by the Western Union Tel- egraph Company in the case of J. Waldere | Kirke against that .company which prac- tically amounts to a dismjssal of the case and exempts the big corporation from its share of the war tax. Kirke some months ago filed an un- stamped telegram in the office of the com- pany. The operators refused to send the message, and he accordingly brought suit against the company in the United States courts. A demurrer was filed in the case by the telegraph company in which it con- | tended that as it would ha to a fine of $10 for receiving an unstamped message, it was perfectly justified in re- jecting any message which did not bear a duly canceled stamp. In his opinion Judge Morrow takes the same ground as the company and sustains the demurrer. He cites sections 6, 7, 9 and nue bill. Section 7 of a fine of $100 upon a pe shall make, sign or issue any taxable paper and neglect to stamp and cancel the sam Section 18 of $10 upon an ve been subject e. this bill imposes a fine of for send- ing such message The court accordingly hold: ke should have amped his me nd is liable in the g m of $100 for filing it, while the com- pany might have been fined $10 had it re- ceived and transmitted it. The point involved is, Who shall pay the tax? and the court holds, under the sections quoted, that the sender must fur- nish the stamp. A Bellboy Arrested. Romaine Angel, a bellboy in the Palace Hotel, was arrested yesterday morning by Detectives Egan and Gibson and locked up in “the tanks” at the City Prison. A number of small articles of jewelry have been missing from the rooms of guests and an opal pin valued at §2 which was stolen from the room of A. H. a commercial traveler, in was traced to Angel. it is whether he will be pros. cuted. He was a friend of Stephen Har ing, the ex-bellboy at the St. Nicholas Hotel, who was arrested for attempting to strangle and rob Henry Charles in the St. Nicholas recently. Octotber lg not known JACK RAFFAEL HAS LEFT HIS EAND CHILD The Singer Faithless| to His Vows. TROUBLE OVER AN ESTATE HE WAS GIVEN NONE OF HIS | FATHER-IN-LAW’S MONEY. | The Deserted Womar Was Daughter of J. Ross Jackson, Journalist and Bo- hemian. the Jack Raffael, he of the sweet volce and | scarred face, departed unceremoniously | for the East about six weeks ago, leaving his wife and baby to mourn his loss. | Mrs. Raffael has gone with her child to | her mother’s home in Sausalito, where the | saddest part of the sad story will prob- | | ably happen—the birth of a little one, who | | will never know the protecting love of a | father. | Raffael, whose name stripped of all the | glltter of stage life, Is John R. Johnson, | was married three years ago to Carrie Jackson, only child of the late well-known | newspaper man, J. Ross Jackson. The marsi e from the very start was not a happy one, and the friends of the Jackson family did not hesitate to sav that the | Tivoll singer had married the heiress for | the sake of the fortune she would eventu- ally inherit. A year after the marriage a child was born to the mismated couple, a | little boy, that bears the name of a father and grandfather. J. Ross Jackson Raffael. Raffael’s mistreatment of his wife was of the refined cruelty sort, in which a con- | temptuous neglect played a leading role. | A favorite nastime of the singer was to | forget all family ties for several days in guccession, carrying the game to the ex- tent of utter oblivion of home and fam Ross Jackson left an estate amounting to about $10.000. and he so arranged it that the Tivoli favorite had no direct part in | it. Those in a position to know declare | that Raffael's desertion of wife and child | is the direct result of this disposition made by Ross Jackson of his estate, a dis- position that did not coincide with the singer's ideas of how a father-in-law’s wealth should be divided. HAS MILITARY LOCKIAW. Senator Stewart of Nevada Refuses | to Discuss Anything. United States Senator William M. Stew- art of Nevada arrived at the Palace yes- terday. The Senator has a very bad case | of military lockjaw, and the only things | he would consent to discuss were his meals. When asked what was the status of af- fairs in Congress regarding the annexa- | tion of the Philippines and his own posi- | tion on this present interesting question | he refused to say a word. Being interro- | gated as to the significance of his visit to | San Francisco, he replied that he was here because he wanted to come and be- cause he had a right to come. Regarding | his chances of re-election Senator Stew- | art refused positively to say a word. He | declared that he was letting the. other | fellows do the talking, and that he had | no statement to make, and that he de- | sired to be let alone and given surcease | from notoriety. | —_———— St. Rose’s School. | St. Rose’s School, Brannan street, opened yesterday with a fair attendance after being closed since the great fire. | The building was blessed and dedicated by the pastor, Rev. D. Nugent, with ap- | propriate ceremonies and a select choir, | The children and teachers then repaired to the magnificent church, .where benc sacrament ! given, and the religious exercises closed the “Te Deum.” | St. Rose's parish is now fully equipped, | and Father Nugent has one of the finest | churches in the city, a palatial residence and a school with™ all modern improve- | | ments. i —_—————— The Sloper Divorce Case. Judge Belcher vesterday made an order denying Kate E. Sloper a divorce from | her husband, Tra M. Sloper. The court | also refused to_entertain the application | on the part of Sloper for divorce from his wife on his cross-complaint. Mrs. Sloper | was ordered to reconvey her husband cer- tain properties placed In her name prior | to Sloper’s departure for Guatemala, an | act which led his wife to instigate suit for divorce on the ground of desertion. but which it was proved during the trial was consented to by Mrs. Sloper. e In Grateful Acknowledgment. | The ladies of the Francesca Relief So-| clety gratefully acknowledge, through | Mrs. Luke Robinson, checks for the fol- lowing amount From Claus Spreckel $100; Adolph B.

PINKHAM.] A woman with the bluesisa very un- comfortable person. She is illogical, unhappy and frequently hysterical. The condition of the mind known as “the blues,” nearly always, with wo- men, results from diseased organs of generation. It is a source of wonder that in this age of advanced medical science, any | person should still believe that mere force of will and determination will | overcome depressed spirits and nerv- | ousness in women. These troubles are indications of disease. Every woman who doesn't under- stand her condition should write to Lynn, Mass., to Mrs. Pinkham for her advice. Her advice is thorough com- mon sense, and is the counsel of a learned woman of great experience. NETT, Westphalia, Kansas, as told in the fol- lowing letter: “DEAR Mrs. PiNERAM:—I have suf- fered for over two years with falling, enlargement and ulceration of the womb, and this spring, being in such a weakened condition, caused me to flow for nearly six months. Some time ago, urged by friends, I wrote to you for advice. After using the treatment which you advised for a short time, that terrible flow stopped. “I am now gaining strength and flesh, and have better health than I have had for the past ten years. I wish to say to all distressed, suffer- ing women, do not suffer longer, when there is one so kind and willing to Lydia pound is & woman's remedy for wo- Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- man’s ills.

OPEN DAILY FROM 1 TO 11 EVERYBODY RIDES. ADMISSION 10, INCLUDING HORSES. An old German woman, living in a Kansas town, says of Ripans Tabuless “When we came out to Kansas, eighteen years ago, we were very poor and we had o big family. I had to work very hard in the house and outside, too, milking cows, slopping hogs, picketing horses, making garden and so on. 1 was far from my relatives and didn’t like the country. I didn’t know nobody, 8o I stayed at home and wor d. 'W» had a bhard time of it. No friiit. no vegetables, no nothing. Such living was enough to ruin anybody’s insides. After a while my stomach got out of order, and grew worse and worse. I lost my appetite. Nothing tasted good. I was troubled with sourness and gulp- ings. Then I got to be cross as a bear. I was downhearted too. I felt kind of drowsy most of the time, and had no courage for anything. I dreamt the awlulest dreams. But I didn’t think X was’bad sick, and doctors cost too much and may be don’t do any good. At last, my brother in Phiiadelphia sent me some Ripans Tabules. He said they were good for my case. I used foem and n got more. Soon I was well again, almost like when I wsa g
