She lectured before the Tacoma Chamber of Commerce and not long ago a communication of hers was read before the Seattle Chamber of Commerce dealing with the Porcupine district and the boundary question. Recently Mrs. Campbell received a letter from Senator Foster regarding the boun- dary. The Benator quoted from the offi- clal correspondence on the subject. He pointed out that the international tem- porary agreement specified the ‘“‘junction of the Chilcoot” with the canal. Mrs. Campbell was quick to see that if this ‘was a literal translation it meant the loss of even more territory than is now under- stcod. The Chilcat should have been named. The Chilcoot is six miles north of the junction of the Chilcat. Mrs. Campbell at once wrote Senator Foster calling his attention to the pre- vious correspondence, and he has just re- plied, thanking her and promising to im- mediately look into the subject. Mrs. Campbell tells of a new gold fleld which was found by George Willlams in the Arctic, In the interior from Point Bar- row, When at Point Barrow last year Williams learned from the Indians of gold in the interior. He set on foot an expe- dition, and after a time returned with | forty ‘pounds of dust. He is now prepar- ing for another trip into the country. — e Smallpox at San Jose.

The man who will succeed the late Rounsevelle Wildman, a victim of the Rio de Janelro disaster, is one of the editors of the Milwaukee Sentinel. Merchants of San Franefsco expected that a resident of this city would get the appointment. When a dispatch was published _that Rublee would probally be chosen Presi- dent George A. Newhall of the Chamber of Commerce telegraphed Senator Thomas R. Bard as follows: 2 “Can you inform us definitely if Presi- dent McKinley has appointed Willlam A. Rublee? If 80, what are his qualifica- ons?” The following reply was received: WASHINGTON, D, C., March 2, 1901. George H. Newhall, President Chamber of Commerce, San Francisco, Cal.: Though Wil- liam A. Rublee’s appointment has not yet been sent to the Senate, it i{s certain. I have met him. He is a modest, retiring, well educated and’ rebuted to be of superior moral worth. He is a son of Horace R. Rublee, a distin- guished politician and editor of the Milwaukee Sentinel.” He succeeded his father as editor of the paper. He was appointed by President Harrison as Consul to ague, Austria, and served about three years. Has no other ex- periences or trailning in commercial business, but his character is first rate and gives assur- ance of falrness and respectability. He will be at the Palace Hotel April 12, and will sail on April 17. Both the Wisconsin Senators re- @ iieinieinieeee ettt @ DESERTION LEADS - T0 TRAGIC DEATH Pretty Rhodo M. Eddo Ends Life on a Street of Los Angeles. ALl Spectal Dispatch to The Call. LOS ANGELES, March 2.—After having vainly searched for three days for Phil H. Glassell, the lover who had deserted her, pretty Rhodo M. Eddo ended her life with a bullet this afternoon. The tragedy was enacted in front of the residence of Dr. J. de Barth Shorb, who, the unfortu- nate girl believed, had used his influence to cause Glassell to forsake her. Miss Eddo expired in the presence of Miss Lucy | Mitchell, a niece of the man whose love | she desired more than life. Miss Eddo shot herself through the right temple with the pistol of Glassell. Death was instan- taneous. Rhodo M. Eddo was a beautiful girl a year ago when Phil H. Glassell made her acquaintance. She worked in a lodging- | | house on North Broadw She was then scarcely 17 years old. Glassell prevailed upon her to live with him. James P. | Eddo, the father of Rhodo, at one time | threatened Glassell with personal violence, | but he could not induce his daughter to leave Glassell. She believed Glassell would marry her, and after the death of Andrew Glassell, the father of the young man, st repeatedly informed her friends that | weuld soon be Philip's wife. | Friends and relatives brought all their infitence to bear upon Phil Glassell to cause him to break with the girl. Four deys ago Glassell left Rhodo at their room ang never came back. At first it caused hel” no uneasiness, but as his absence be- | came prolonged the deserted girl became | frantic. She hired a buggy and patrolled Fthe entire city in search of him. She sus- pected that her lover was concealed at | the house of Dr. J, de Barth Shorb on | Bonnle Brae street, and during the last three days she was noticed. passing there 2 number of times by neighbors. Early this afternoon Miss Eddo was still lcoking for Glassell. On North Main street she stopped her buggy and beck- oned to an acquaintance. Her face was heggard. She looked as If she had been without sleep for a week. ““Have you seen anything of Phil?" she querled eagerly. ave not seen him for more than three days. He is hiding from me, or else they have spirited him away. He' promised to marry me and now he has gone back on his word, like a coward, and I can find him nowhere. More than that, he has left me without a cent.” The man to whom she spoke advised her to give him up. “I won't,” she replied, in a dejected manner, belleve Phil is at Dr. Shorb's. ‘When I passed therejyesterday the doctor ran out of the house and told me that 'f I dld not quit coming by there he would have me ariested for vagrancy.” A few hours afterward the girl ended her life before the Shorb residence. In Miss Eddo's hand as she fell was clasped a sealed envelope which contained her last message to the man who had for- saken her. It declared that she could not live without him and expressed the hope that they would meet in the land to come. The note was signed, “Mrs. P. H. Glas- sell (Rhodo M.

Evidently the President sent the nom- ination of Rublee to the Senate after Sen- ator Bard had wired to Mr. Newhall, To- | morrow the various commercial bodies of the city, by their presidents and boards | of direcfors, will ‘meet in the hall of the Chamber of Commwerce. The object of that meeting, as originally announced, was to discuss the names of candidates for the Hongkong Consyl Generalship in order that the Californii Senators might be duly apprised of the choice of the meeting. A meeting will be held, never- theless, and the matter to be discussed will be'the appointment referred to in the telegram of Senator Bard PIERRE DE LARA. The Famous Grand Opera Tenor to Support Sembrich in This City. Pierre de Lara, who will open at the Grand Opera-house with Mme. Sembrich March 18, and who has evidently acquired his faith in the value of a “de’’ from Jean de Reszke's career here, is to be the lead- ing tenor of Mme. Sembrich’s Opera Com- pany. He sang with her in Berlin dur- ing October and November at the Royal Opera-house and js to go directly from this country to Buenos Ayres, where he has been engaged for a three years’ con- tract after the close of Mme. Sembrich's | season. His brief career has been inter- | esting. He was born 27 years ago in Na- | ples and studied in the conservatory there to prepare himself for the duties of an orchestral conductor. He was engaged at the little theater of Barl as second con- | ductor and his work was to coach the | singers for the operatic performances. His voice was frequently praised when | at the plano he sang the music for the | ngers, and he was seriously advised to tempt a career as a singer. He studied | in Napl and after two years made his debut at La Scala as Alfredo in “La Tra- | viata.” His reputation was established | one of the most promising young ten- ors in Italy. He has since appeared in | Rome, Milan and the other principal Ital- | ian cities. He has so far confined himself to the lighter tenors and was to have cre- | ated the leading part in Mascagni's new | opera, “I Mascher!,” at Venice before he | accepted Mme. Sembrich’s invitation to come here. HIGH SCHOOL FRATERNITY. Gamma Eta Kappa Delegates in Council at San Jose.

Taflela SEATTLE, March 2.—A vpeculfar sult, | arising from ‘an alleged fraudulent divorcs, ‘was this morning begun by a petition flled in the office of the County Clerk by Caro- line Hoffman, who asks the court to com. pel G. A. Hlll, as executor of the estate of Charles J. Hoffman, to grant her a share of the property. Caroline Hoffman alleges that up to the time of the death of Charles J. Hoffman she was his lawful wife, and this in the face of the fact that in the records of the Superfor Court of the State is flled a judgment which grantei to Charles J. Hoffman o full and complete divorce from her. She bases her claim on the alleged fact that her husband ob tained this divorce by rraud. Caroline Hoffman recites that on the 2d day of January, 189, she and Hoffman were married at Denver, Colo. On the 18th of September, 1506, thio plaintift says, she with the consént of her husband went to San Francisco to reside. During the year 1898 Charles J. Heffman commenced an actlon for divorce against her in the courts of King County, whence he hal moved. In this action Hoffman clalmed that he did not know the postoffice ad- dress of Caroline Hoffman and as a consa- quence summons was published. It {s al- leged that all this time Hoffman not only knew the address of his wife but was writing to her and that she has letters to prove the statement. The divorce was granted by default. On the 15th of September, 1899, Hoffman flled and his cstate 1s now belng manage 1 by G. A. Hill. In view of her claim tha: the divorce was obtained by fraud anl without her having had an opportunity to defend herself, Caroline Hoffman claims that at the time of Charles J. Hoit- man’s death she was his lawful wife and she holds that she is entitled to a share of his estate. Mrs. W. A.
