HOPE BYRNE WANTS TO BE FREE ONCE MORE Appeals Again to a Marysville Court to Rid Her of the Hateful Galling Bonds of Matrimony. . — s RS. HOPE SHERWOOD BYRNE is again a plaintiff in a divorce suit. She has filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Yuba County at Marysville in which she charges her husband, Calla- ghan Byrne, with desertion and failure to provide for herself and child. In the com- plaint she prays that she be awarded the custody of her child, William Ellis Byrne, together with a reasonable allowance for costs of action and counsel fees. The news that Mre. Byrne was obliged to appeal to the courts to make her once again a free woman came rather as a sur- prise to her husband’s many friends. The friends of the lady got their surprise when shortly after the honeymoon days the fair young wife left her husband’s roof to seek the protection of her father's home in Marysville. The gossips at that period had a merry time discussing the possibili- ties of Mrs. Byrne's second appearance in the divorce courts. However, persistent denials of an approaching legal separation of the ill-mated couple finally served to silence all tongues and the inquisitive | friends of the Byrnes were forced to turn their attention to other affairs. Now these friends of ‘the unhappy couple declare that the husband made | several unsuccessful attempts at reconcili- ation and with this object in view made many trips to Marysville, However, his negotiations for peace feill through, and now it is rumored he will not oppose the suit which doubtless will be disposed of in a few days by the Yuba County Judge. On the 1th of February, 189, Hope Ellis Sherwood and Callaghan Byrne were married. The happy pair had faced matri- mony early in '92, but a lovers’ quarrel brought the engagement at that period to a sudden termination. It happened at Del Monte during the fashionable “‘shoot” period. Miss Ellls #h was addicted to decollete gowns. Mr. Byrne objected to his fiancee’s wearing too _little dress. The couple | quarreled and the betrothal was broken Migs Ellis went back to her home in ville and one day surprised her < by announcing her marriage to ort Sherwood, the divorced husband of beautiful Miss Blethen £ The knowledge of Ellis’ wedding to voung Sherwood was a great surprise to her many friends. The lady was to have been one of the bridesmalds at the wedding of Miss Eleanor Dimond and Paul Jarboe, but on_the very day of the wedding Miss Dimond received a telegram from the lady in Marysville announcing her marriage to Sherwood and declaring RECRETS HSTY REND MARRIAGE Wants Divorce Put Into Effect. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, August 17. Divorced in March, 1900, after twenty- four years of wedded life, Mary C. and John L. Wilson went at once to Reno to | be re-married and now Mrs. Wilson again wishes the union dissolved. She says she has found it is fllegal and asks the court to declare it null and void. The couple were married in 1876 and have lived in California for the last twenty They years. were divorced in Madera County, | March 8, 190. By March 12 they had decided they could not live apart, had made up their diiferences, gone to Reno and been joined in supposed lawful wed- lock by the Rev. B. F. Hudelson. Later on the old coldness sprang up and Mrs. Wilson avails herself of a Superior Court decision to ask that the marriage be annulled. Theodore Lange has been ordered to pay his divorced wife $12 a month alimony. Lange is a butcher, and to prove that his wife has no interest in the shop, which stands in his name, his son was called to testify that he was the real owner of the | property and deeded it away when he was married recently to prevent his own wife from having any claim upon it. The court exempted the shop from the claims of the elder Mrs. Lange. The following divérces were granted | to-day: Francis Wyber from Albert C. Wyber; Ora B. Rising from Franklin_ G. Rising; Minnie Berwick from Frederick Berwick. Returns to Alma Mater. BERKELEY, Aug. 17.—Harry B.

STUDENT Oakland Office San Franclsco Call, 1118 Broadway, Aug. 17. Just because two university students carried the university fad of stealing signs to excess they are booked at the City Prison for larceny and stand a good chance. of having to pay a right round fine. The boys were caught at the corner of Thirty-first and Grove streets this morn- | | ing at 3 o’clock by Special Policeman Jack Robinson. Robinson noticed the boys carrying a large advertising mirror be- tween them, and after watching them for | a while placed them under arrest and sent them to the City Hall. They were | | put on the small book and this afternoon were booked as T. W. Rowland and B, T. Mackey, both of which are assumed | names, and charged with larceny. They were released upon $100 bonds given by A. Jacobs and M. Coakley. The mirror that the boys were carrying is a large plate-glass affair taken from in front of J. L. Champlin’s shoe store in the Macdonough building. While the mir- ror probably cost considerable money as an advertisement it was worthless to the boys except as a trophy of their prowess in stealing signs. The glass is sald to| have cost $35 to have made and an adver- tisement of Mr. Champlin’s shoe business is_ground into the glass. The theft is said to be the result of the fad that has grown up in Berkeley of filling' the rooms of the students with | stolen signs. The more difficult it is to | | secure a sign the greater the prize. The | two students in question are furnlsh(ngl their rooms in the university town and they wanted something that would eclipse | everything else in the stolen sign line in | Berkeley. They selected the Champlin | glass sign and came to Oakland last night. After midnight they went to work | and succeeded in unscrewing the sign | from the front of the building, and tak- | ing it under their arms they. started to | walk to Berkeley with it. Special Robin- son spoiled their nearly successful game, The boys intended fo place it in their rooms as an evidence of their superior ability to steal signs, but they will now have to answer in court. The police be- lieve that they have solved the secret of the disappearance of hundreds of signs that have been stolen from many places of business in Oakland In. the last few years. i Charity Expert May Stay.

Says His Name Is Herbert Bond, but Refuses Further Information. —_— Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, Aug. 17. The *“Gas Man” has been captured and is In jail, and once more the housewives of Oakland are breathing easily for the first time since the mysterious burglar began his operations a week ago. The man who is now in the City Prison gives the name of Herbert Bond, but no other infor- mation about himself. The “Gas Man,” as he has come to be known in police circles, has been working in Oakland for nearly a week. His plan ‘was not particularly new or novel, but it a very successful source of income for himself and of terror for the women of Oakland. He would appear at the home of some well-to-do resident in broad day- light and announce that he was a rep- resentative of the gas company and that he had been sent to inspect the gas fix- tureg of the hquse. In nearly every case he would be given full and free permission to inspect the gas fixtures of the entire house, and while he was making his bogus inspection he would appropriate anything of value that happened to be in sight. He tried to secure money, but did not hesi- tate to take jewelry and silver articles where they were not marked. Police Are Worried. Soon_robberies began to be reported to the police. All occurred in the daytime, and the amount of plunder ranged as low as $ and as high as $100. But the num- They day. The first definite clew came from the robbery of the residence of J. P. Edoff, 913 Grove street. There it was dis- covered that the articles taken had disap- peared just after an “‘inspector” from the gas company had visited the house to in- spect the gas fixtures. Chief of Police Hodgkins at once detected the work of a bogus gas inspector, and his theory proved correct. But the trouble was to locate the fllu- sive ‘‘gas man.” One day he would work in one part of the city, and the next day in another. He had no system, and he always worked in the daytime, and so the fame of the “‘zas man” went abroad and housewlves began to keep an eye out for anybody who wanted to inspect gas fix- tures or read a meter. This morning the ‘‘gas man'’ appeared at the residence of J. M. Hanford, pay- master of the Southern Pacific Company, at 1205 Peralta street, in West Oakland. He explained that he had been sent to see f there was a leak in the pipes, and wanted a stepladder and monkeywrench with which to make a test in the bed- room. The women in the house thought that they had their man. Burglar Smells a Rat. Mrs. Hanford left him in the room while she went to the back door, locked it and then telephoned for the police, saying that she had the man in the house. But the “gas man” began to suspect trouble and bowed himself out of the front door, al- though Mrs. Hanford tried to persuade him to remain and coraplete his inspec- tion. He was quite sure that the gas fix- tures were all right, and disappeared Policemen soon began to arrive at the house in patrol wagons, on trolley_cars, on bicycles and afoot. Chief ef Police Hodgkins was right in the runnisg him- self, and the men were sent to scour the neighborhood in_a thoroughly systematic manner. They had an excellent descrip- tion of the man, and in a few moments Policeman Moore found a man answering the description coming out of a house. He declared himself to be a tea solicitor, but was placed under arrest and taken to the City Prison. . The man refused to talk about himself. He sald that his name was Herbert Bond, and that he had recently come from the East and was living in San Francisco. He dropped a few words that would indi- cate that he was the man who had done all of the work in Oakland recently, and | there was found in his possession a purs belonging to Mrs. Fletcher O. Haskill of 1042 Chester street. This purse was missed yesterday afternoon after the “‘gas man” had appeared there and made an “inspection” of the gas fixtures. President John A. Britton of the Oak- land Gas, Light and Heat Company is pleased that the man has been captured, for it is unpleasant for his company to have such a scheme worked by a thief. All of the regular gas inspectors of the Oakland Company are uniformed. L e e e e S S R Y ) BEGINS FIGHT FOR PROPERTY Former Wife of Captain Williams Says He Robbed Her. ©Oakland Office San Francisco Call, _1118 Broadway, Aug. 1T. Mrs, Sarah D. Willlams, who came from Boston to fight the attempt of certain claimants to have awarded to them the property of her former husband, Captain H. G. Williams, has begun action by suing | to qulet title to realty of which she accuses Charles W. and R&- | field W. Stone and Captain Willlams of de- frauding her. The deed to the property, a lot on Thir- teenth street, near ‘West, is held by the Court Commissioner pending the settle- ment of its rightful ownership. Lazarus and Stone had a petition be- fore the Probate Court asking that they should be declared the owners of the lot, when Mrs. Willlams suddenly appeared on the scene. She was dumfounded at the condition of Willlams’ estate, as she sup- osed that the .disputed property was in er name. She was also astonished to find that the late captain had obtained a di- vorce from her and had remarried. She now accuses her former husband of using her name without her knowledge or permission to transfer the property which she claims to have owned since 1893 to Charles W. Stone in order that Stone might immediately reconvey it to Wil- lams. This, Mrs. Williams says, was done in January, 191. Having thus secured a title to the property, she says, Williams sold it the same day to Redfield W. Stone in consideration of Stone's agreement to pay Willlams $26 a month during the rest of his life. Later on Stone transferred. the Iot to Lazarus on the same tefms. Mrs. Williams asks the court to set aside the whole transaction as fraudulent and to order an accounting by the defendant. The coples of the deed involved in the Recorder’s office purport to show that on January 28, 1901, Sarah D. Williams by H. G. Willlams, her attorney in fact, sold the lot to Charles W. Sténe for $. Two other/| deeds filed the same day transfer the prop- erty from Charles W. Stone to Willlams and from Willlams to Redfield W. Stone. On June 8 last it was deeded again to Laz- arus. The Willilamses were married in San Francisco in 1872. The next year she went to Boston, as she states, to escape the San Francisco climate. She never saw her husband again ana came to California in the expectation that he had left her, as his widow, consider- able property.

Father Sesnon, Kndwn as the “Singing Priest,” Will Appear and All the Features Will Be Excellent. AKLAND, Aug. 17.—A very im- portant musical benefit for a very worthy cause will be given on ‘Wednesday next at the Macdon- ough Theater. It will be a concert of unusual excellence, the proceeds of which will go to the St. Joseph's Home for Deaf Mutes, on Telegraph avenue, corner of Fortieth street. The feature of the evening will be the appearance of the Rev. Father Robert Sesnon, the “singing priest.” Father Ses- non has consented to appear because of the worthy object for which the concert is to be given. An entertainment of similar nature was announced a short time ago to take place at St. Francis de Sales Hall. This enter- tainment will ke replaced by the concert at the Macdonough Theater, and tickets sold for that entertainment will be good for the Macdonough concert. Reserved seats can be obtained at Smith’'s book- store. All of the parishes on this side of the bay have taken a great interest in this event and all are contributing toward its uccess. St. Joseph's Home for Deaf utes is in the Sacred Heart parish, at Temescal, but it is not attached to any one parish. It is a charity that has grown steadily, but only by the hardest kind of work. It ,was instituted seven years ago in a house that stood on the o L present location. There were a half-dozen sisters that took the work in charge, and they had about as many inmates. There are now ten sisters carrying on the work and there are sixty inmates, These are not confined to the Catnolie faith alone. When this benefit concert ‘was proposed a committee was appointed by Archbishop Riordan, consisting of the Rev. Father Thomas . McSweeney of St. Francis de Sales Church as chairman, and Father Lawrence Serda of the Sacred Heart Church and Father Foley. These have se- lected sub-committees from each parish on this side of the bay, as follows: St. Amhony's—hgl;l: Moffett, Mrs. Hogan, Mrs. Kirk, Mrs. St. Francis de Sales'—Mrs. Merrick, Mrs. N. ss M.

Between 1500 and 2000 no- tices are being sent to property owners ordering them to appear before the board to show cause why their assessments should not be raised. The district upon which an increase in taxes is proposed is bounded on the north by Le Roy avenue and Cedar street, on the west by Oxford street and on the east by the town line. It extends down Center street to Grove and takes in the east of Grove street from Dwight way on the south to Telegraph avenue on the east and the university grounds on the north. This portion of town contains the finest residences in the city and is a part which is rapidly build- ing up. The average value of the property is estimated at $30 a front foot. A general raise of 10 per cent was made in assess- ments this year over those of last year by Town Assessor Wells. This increase ot deemed sufficient by the board and ‘aise of from 15 to 25 per cent additional is proposed. The town is under a 75 cent tax limit, which the Trustees claim is insufficient to run the city government. If the pro- posed increase is carried through, several thousand dollars will be addedsto the city’s revenues GOOD CARD OFFERED AT RELIANCE CLUB BOXING No Fake Fights on the List of Events for Next Tuesday Night. OAKLAND, Aug. 17.—The Reliance Club announces as the leading attraction for its boxing tournament Tuesday night a bout between “Kid” McFadden and George Baker. Baker has proved to the satisfaction of the patrons of the Re- lianee Club's events that he is one of the cleverest ring tacticians ever seen here. His backers fear that he has taken off too much weight to meet McFadden, whose rushing abilities are well known. McFadden, on the other hand, is fighting at his own weight and is favorite in the betting. Davg Berry and Frank Nichols will meet in a ten-round go at 158 pounds. Both are well recommended. ‘Much local interest is shown in the six- round bout between Louie Long of Oak- Jand and “Brick” Howard of San Fran- cisco. Both boys have trained earnestly for the event.

The little inmates of the' West Oakland Home for Orphan Children were given a day in the hills ‘on the wonderful moun- tain-side ranch of Walter Morosco to-day. — The entire day was spent by more than | a hundred little ones and half as many adults roaming over one of the most mag- nificent suburban estates on this side of the bay, Mr. Morosco taking the little visitors out and back and supplying them with every manner of good things, both for amusement and for eating. Mr. Morosco has been a sort of Santa Claus for the West Oakland Home for Children for ten years. When he came to Oakland to live he became interested in that institution. He found it conducted Dby ladies entirely, who were doing a most worthy work with very little outside help. So he began to take a very active inter- est in its affairs and every summer for ten years he has taken the entire lot of orphans out to his home and supplied them with everything that they needed to have a royal good time. This morning Mr. Morosco sent half a dozen six-horse 'buses to the home and took 105 children out to his place. He had provided pony rides and all kinds of games for them and a jolly lunch was given them under the trees. After the lunch every one of the children was given a bag that was filled to the brim with good things, candy, cake, fruit and nuts, and the_bags were not very small. Every vear Mr. Morosco furnishes the entire home with a complete Thanksgiv- ing dinner and every Christmas he sives them a Christmas tree with all kinds of presents for the little ones. Among the adults who partook of Mr. Morosco's _hospitality’ to-day and who watched the children enjoy their out- ing were Mr. and Mrs. U. G.
