The doctor, however, was fixed In| his determination not to live with her any more and turned her out and compelled | her to go back to San Francisco During_the month of Janua 98, Dr. Crabb advised his wife to go over to Dr. Robertson’s Sanitagium, as he was a spe- clalist in nervous diseases. In obedlence to his suggestion she went to Livermore, and on her arrival was assigned to one of the wards for the {nsane. This So infu- riated Mrs. Crabb that she wrote scorch- ing letters to her husband, charging him with nearly every crime in the calendar of sin. She remalned in the sanitarium but in a different ward, until the 5th of April, when she returned to_this .city. The doctor seemed determined that she | should not be at liberty very long, and on the 27th of April he came to San with Deputy Sheriff Charles Ga San Jose and the latter after telling Mrs. Crabb a smooth story that she was needed as a witness in San Jose induced | her to take a trip there. | On arriving in the Garden City she was taken before the Commissioners of Lu- | nacy and the letters she had written from | Livermore were produced against her by | her husband, as insane acts upon her part, and upon them and together with | statéments made by the minister she was | committed to the Insane Asylum at Ag- v, where she remained until the 17th day of August, when she was released on probation at the earnest solicitation of Mrs. H. A. McCormack, a leading mem- ber of tho Methodist church, and was finally discharged within_a month, only fo bs met by her husband’s sult for sep- aration. Crabb is determined that the doc- all not receive a decree and through her n.uorne;‘a has flled an answer in which the above facts are set forth. Her counsel intend to prove by witnesses that Mrs. Crabb was never insane, but was simply railroaded to the asylum. he church-going people of Gilroy, where the doctor preached, have taken sides in the interesting controversy and are considerably wmu%1 t up over the af- fair. It is expected that when the trial is inaugurated on Tuesday many of his old flock will attend, as the trial will de- velop many sensations. v rabb, besides being the au- yrics of the Golden West,” 1s a preacher in high standing in the Metho- dist church. e is at present minister- Inf to his flock in South San Francisco. n the trial the minister will be xepre- sented by D.

NATIVE DAUGHTERS AND THEIR HOME ITS OBJECT BEING EXPLAINED TO ALL PARLORS. The Donations That Have Been Made During the Past Few Weeks to Help The Cause. Since the dedication of the Native Daughters' Home, on O'Farrell street, be- tween Polk street and Van Ness avenue, on the 2d of last January, considerable interest in that worthy institution has been aroused in the order of Native Daughters of the Golden West all over the State. Mrs. Lena H. Mills of Joaquin Parlor, of Stockton, who is the grand president of the order, was in the city some time ago, and by invitation was present at a meeting of the trustees of the home. She took a deep interest in the undertaking and obtained all information possible as to its history and line of work, for the purpose of disseminating that in- formation to all parlors on her official visits. This she has done in the past few weeks, telling, wherever she went, about the advantages that the home offers to all native daughters who may come to San Francisco unattended. In this she is do- ing excellent missionary work, and the in- formattion she is giving in various parts of the State will do much to make the ob- Jects of the home as an abiding placa and a place for the care of the sick of the order, known and appreciated. In the meantime the energetic board of directors is doing all that can be done to impart information about the institu- tion by explanation during personal vis- its to parlors and by sending out descrip- tive and instructive circulars. The members of La Estrella Parlor of this city will glve.a grand literary treat in Native Sons' Hall on the night of tne 2th inst.,, when a small admission fee will be charged and the proceeds will be given to the fund for the maintenance of the home. It is stated that “Evangeline” will be presented and there will, in addi- tion, be a choice programme of numbers and possibly other attractions. , The ob- ject s a’good one and deserves the sup- DOt of every native son, as well as daughe ter, }{lfl(h% city.

Golden Bar Parlor of Sierra City, $3, and Juanita Parlor of Amador, $2. Miss_Eliza D.

The Salvation Army Corps and Train- ing Home at 1139 Market street is now under the command of {ts new leaders, Staff Captain and Mrs. Dunham, who have lately come from the headquarters in Los Angeles. These officers have had twelve years’ experience in Salvation Army work, and have had some of the most important commands in thelr line of rank from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Since taking command of 1139 Market street the interest has been on the rise JEFFRIES WILL HAVE CORBETT S A SECOND Brady Writes to the Ex-Champion. EXPECTS FAVORABLE REPLY THE FIGHT WILL TAKE PLACE ON MAY 26. Fistic Impresario Says His Man Will Surely Whip Fitzsimmons if the Contest Lasts Over Three Rounds. Manager Willlam Brady sald yesterday afternoon that he expects to have James J. Corbett as a sparring partner for Jef- fries during his training for the big mill with Fitzsimmons, and in that event the ex-champion will be seen in the boiler- maker’'s corner on the night of the con- test. When it was suggested to Brady that it would be a rather expensive prop- ositlon to engage Corbett in that capacity he replied that he did not think so, as “Jim” was very friendly to him, and he was certain that he would not refuse such & request. There is no gainsaying the fact that Corbett would be a valuable man to Jef- fries In his coming encounter. In the first place, Corbett is probably the best teacher of fisticuffs in the world to-day. In fact he was a tutor long before he had any aspirations in the professional line. Secondly, he is in a position to give Jeffries many pointers as to Fitzsimmons® tactics, and also his weak points, which he had every opportunity of learning, much to his sorrow, during his unfortunate meeting with the blacksmith at Carson. Added to this, the moral effect of Cor- bett's presence in the ring as Jeffries’ second on the eventful night is bound to be dispiriting to Fitzsimmons, and the value of such an Influence can not be overestimated. If nothing else will be ac- complished by his presence than to worry exclusive patterns. ribbon effects from $1.75 to $202a gled robes from satin vestings from $1.85 to $17.50 to match, from 35¢ to $4.75a spring’s wear.

League Boys to Continue Their Sa- cred Vows of Temperance. The members of the League of the Cross will solemnly renew their pledges of temperance thise afternoon in St. Mary's Cathedral. The ceremony will begin promptly at 2 o'clock and will be conducted by Archbishop Riordan who will administer the pledge immediately after the sermon. In the calendar of the league there is no more important ceremony than that of the annual renewal of pledges of total abstience. Solemn benediction and the singing of a Te Deum will conclude the service. The full strength of the organization, including the branches located in Ala” meda and Marin counties, will be repre- sented. —_————— Park Music To-Day.

Over at Oakland the links were bright with ladies in scarlet jackets, and golf ent on merrily from early in the after- oon till dark.” The tournament for the Tibbetts cup, which was begun on_Sat- urday, February 4, has gone on, and has now reached the semi-final round. The tournament has been condwcted on the following principle: Twenty-one com- petitors originally entered. Subtracting twenty-one from thirty-two (the nearest ywer of two) we get eleven. Accordingly n the preliminary round eleven players drew byes, and the remaining ten were matched against each other in five couples. The five winners, with the eleven byes, make sixteen players, or eight coup‘es. The eight winners make four couples. The four winners make two couples, and the two winners are in the final round for the trophy. The first round_thus serves as a preliminary round to reduce the number of competitors to sixteen, after which the real play of the tournament may be said to begin. _The eleven competitors who drew byes were; P. E. Bowles, scratch: W. W Mein, 38; J. C. McKee, scratch; D. F. Bel- den, scratch; J. M. Taft, W. P. John- son, scratel 3 C. P. Hub= bard, scratch; E. R. Folger, scratch; H. J. Knowles, 2; George P.

Greenwood, scratch, beat C. 0. G. Miller, 3, 10 up; T. V. Bakewell, 2, beat T. R. Hutchin- son, 3, 1 up. The figures appearing after each name are the handicaps: a handicap of one gives the recipient one stroke on the hole named “Fence’; a handicap of two gives the reciplent a stroke on ‘‘Fence’ “Jumper’’; while a handicap of three ves the player receiving it a stroke at “Fence,” ‘Jumper” and “Home.” The five winners in the first round and the eleven players who drew byes played in the second round, which resulted as fol- lows: e |—P."

A matter of law which will be of no small interest to municipalities is to be passed upon in the Supreme Court in the near future. In the latter part of last year the city trustees of Fresno came to the conclusion that the trade stamp of- commerce i{s not such a good thing as is claimed for it and should be discouraged. To this end an ordinance was passed in September setting forth that every per- son, firm or corporation carrying on or conducting the business of selling trade stamps or tickets of any kind, redeem- able in money, merchandise or any other thing, and so redeeming the same, should pay a license of $200 per quarter. H. R. IcKenney came within the prescribed class, and on the 4th inst. he was arrest- ed by the City Marshal, M. L. Woy, for violating the ordinance. TUpon trial he was convicted and now he has applied to the Supreme Court for a. writ of habeas corpus, stating that he is fllegally restrained of his liberty. He sets up that the license is dispropertionate to the licenses of other lines of business. be- ing nearly forty times as great. McKen- ney states that the amount of the license is prohibitive and beyond the jurisdiction of the Board of Trustees to impose. ‘.e petition was granted by the court and will be heard at an early dage. The inter- est in the coming decision Hes in the fact that similar ordinances have been passed or are being contemplated In other cities of the State where the trade stamp has obtained a foothold. He Will Try It Again. Charles W. Vosmer, the daring aero- naut, who was so badly injured by fall- ing from his balloon last October, has en- tirely recovered and will make an ascen- ston and parachute drop at the Chutes this afternoon. The occasion will be a benefit for him, and as the winds are very favorable at this time of the year he ex- pects to almost go out of sight. CASH OR LITTLE-AT-A-TIME.
