Talked of Great Wealth and of Rich Furniture to Mrs. Minnie Smith and Then Stole Her Purse. e Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, June 7. Mre. Minnie M. Smith, an attractive voung widow, told Judge Quinn this af- ternoon of a very interesting trin she took with a reputed wealthy miner to Pledmont Springs a few weeks ago. The reputed wealthy alias Mr. Hobbman, alias several other names, sat in court while the little widow told how he had played a very smooth confidence game. Some time in April Mrs. Smith was look- ing for employment. Through a friend, Mrs. Henn, who resides at the Hotel Merritt, she was Introduced to Mr. Arling- ton. He is a fatherly looking old gentle- man, with hair almost white, but with none of that vim and attractiveness which might be supposed to endear him to bright women. Yet this reputed wealthy miner has a record of which he ought not to be proud. He has seen the inside of the Alameda County Jall, is not unac- | quainted with the interior of San Quentin, | | ascertain his whereabouts. and the detectives assert that he is known elsewhere. In each instance the trouble was caused by his confidential dealings with a woman, probable defeat were told with much de- tail and very earnestly by Mrs. Smith. After 1 had beenintroduced to Mr. Arlington and he had been informed by Mrs. Henn that 1 was looking for a situa- tion, he rather startled me by his first remark. He said: ‘I am a very plain- spoken man. No: other at once. Is, there any case? that T always acted for myse there is no man in it; he sald, ‘we will talk business.’ He told me that he had daughter whose welfare must be the m important duty of any housekeeper he might employ.” He said he was going to furnish a house and had been recommend- ed to look at a flat on Hobart street. He suggested that I go with him to see the and help him to arrange for fur- nishing it. Money was no object with him, and he wanted everything nice and convenfent, both for himself and his man in thi: 21f. hen if miner, Mr. Arlington, | His latest conquest and | I told him there certainly was not; | | | , let us understand each | ¢ housekeeper and daughter. We went to the house, and after satisfy ourselves that it would be very convenient we walked several blocks, when Mr. Arlington men- tioned t 1 ‘must be tired and that It | would be better to ride. An electric car was passing, and after we boarded it told me that he was not feeling bright and that if I had no objection we would take a ride to Piedmont Springs. 1 agreed to go, and s soon as we arrived | he saw some one to whom he wished to speak, and left me on a bench for a few minutes, sending me a glass of lemonade. When he returned he threw a bag of pea- lap. Then he asked me if 1 could change $20 for him. 1 told him that I could not, as 1 had not that much change. As soon as I opened my purse he said, ‘I will take care of that.” I pro- tested, but he said, ‘I'll pay for anything that we spend out of it and will settle with you.” I made a vigorous protest, and he expressed great surprise that I should be suspicious of an honorable man. He <aid that compared to his wealth all I might have would be but a drop in the bucket. I demanded of him that he glve me purse back, but he ‘would not do s0." At this point the widow's attorneys promptly cut off her story, and when Arlington’s attorney wanted to know what transpired after the purse-snatching were also shut off by the rules of xamination. In several ways At- Aldrich wanted to know what transpired between the time her money was taken from her at the springs and the time she swore to the warrant for the arrest of Arlington. They could make no number of invitations had been issued, | and when the curtain arose on the first | number of the programme the body of the hall was packed. The talent contributing the musical fea- tures of the evening was excellent. Matt Keefe, a promising voung California | tenor, rendered several songs and e | hanced the evening's enjoyment. Joe Murry, a barytone, and L. Lobe were re- | headway against the court's rulings and | this part of the mystery was not divulged. Mrs, Smith said the purse contained $214 85, of which $200 was in greenbacks Mrs. Henn, who introduced the widow to the alleged wealthy miner, was to have been the next witness for the people, but che did not appear and the trial of the case went over for a week. ‘Arlington’s attorneys had asked Mrs. ou see anybody in the courtroom that was at the springs when the incident happened?’ and she replied ““N Her attorney had her re- called to ask her if she had not seen one man in the courtroom at the springs, to Which she replled. shaking her fist at Ar- | lington, “Yes, certainly: I saw that gray- haired man there, of course.” AN ANGRY FATHER THREATENS KEATING YOUNG MISS BARNETT IS THE CENTRAL FIGURE. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, %8 Broadway, June 7. Somewhat of a mystery hangs over a fracas that occurred at Hospital entrance last night. Isaac Bar- rett acknowledged to-night that he had been mixed up with W. J. warden of the insane, and said it was all over his daughter, but he declined to say anything further. Keating also declines to discuss the matter. Matron McDonald of the hospital heard the whole affair and gives the following version of it: “It was the most disgraceful affair T| ever witnessed at the hospital. I was busy i the kitchen, when through the window 1 saw an elder to the side entrance to the hospital. Mr. Keating came to the door and Mr. Bar- nett shovted to him that he was the man fie was looking for. ‘You have ruined my Gaughter, sald Mr. Barnett, at the same time applying a vile epithet and uttering a e oath.” Then the two men went at each vther hammer and tongs, and soon Mr. Earnett's son came running over from across the street to take his father's part. Then the girl, who I8 about 15 years old, came over, too, and arpenr(-d to take Mr, Keating's part, for the brother grabbed her by the hair and, pulling her away, slapped her. Just then Mr. Borchert came hurrying out of the hospital and stood off Barnett. In tlie meantime a great Seowd gathered on the sidewalk and in the street. Young Barnett tried to blow his JoTice. whistle, but Borchert prevented him. Later, after the row was all over, Officer Powers came upon the scene, but ne arrests were made. “I heard the girl say that she would kill herself as she tearfully left the premises.” ——————— Inventor Hoe’s great story, “How I | Built the First Printing Press,” in next Sunday’s Call. — e RICH MAN’S COSTLY BATHS.

Kahn returned to this city yesterday from Wichita, Kans., where he has been in attendance at the Transmississippi Congress. Mr. Kahn represented the local Chamber of Com- merce at and was prominent in the de- liberations of the convention. He distinguished himself especially in his advocacy of legislation favorable to American ships being manned by Ameri- can seamen. When in the course of a being built in the United States and men- tioned the Oregon, the whole convention rose to a man and cheered for several minutes. Mr. Kahn was also called upon to re- spond to the addresses of welcome of Gov- ernor William P. Stanley of Kansas, who presided at the gathering, and that of Mayor Ross, Mayor of Wichita. In his answer he spoke of the great progress made in the western half of the country during the past half centu aying that the history of California was the history of the transmi; ippl States. “The convention was attended by nearly 400 delegates,” said Mr. Kahn when seen last evening. “Subjects of great impor- tance to the nation were discussed and resolutions favorable to the irrigation law, merchant marine, beet sugar industry, the fethmian canal and other matters of gen- Condemnatory resolutions were also passed against coo- lie contract labor. Beneficial results are certain to be obtalned by the work of the congress just closed. We were treated rovally and the visit will always be a pleasurable recollection to me.” —————————— E. W.

Father O’Ryan Preaches Before the Catholic Truth Society. Very impressive were the religious ex- ercises held last night at St. Ma Ca- thedral under the auspices of the Catholic Truth Society. The exercises included the siniging of the hyins reator,” “Tantum Ergo” and “Te Deum.” Solemn bepediction was also celebrated. Father Philip O'Ryan preached an in- teresting sermon_on the subject, - “Tha Church and the Bible.” In the course of his remarks he said: The Bible is not merely the work of the church, but the work of God himself, who in- spired 'its writings. There are three things requisite for a clear conception of the holy gcriptures, namel That the Holy Ghost | spired and moved the writers to give utterance to the truths therin contained, He suggested the things that were written and he presorved the writers themselves from error. To properly understand the Bible a divine interpreter is necessary, and we have such an Interpreter in the Catholic Church, who has defended the writings from the attacks of its enemies. The church Is the official authority of the Bible and she speaks infallibly when once she has spoken. She teaches what is seripture and what is not, and it s only through her that we can arrive at a just con- clusion regarding the sacred book. ————— Possible Ptomaine Poisoning.
