Last week the man returned to his first sweetheart and told her the old tale again and they fled together to the ha- ven of California divorcees across the State line. He said he had been divorced from his first wife. A year ago on New Year's day Miss Leo Nielsen and Clarence C. Haley, bet- ter known as “Ned” Haley, were to have been married. ~The ceremony was not performed and a few weeks afterward Haley married a girl from Upton, Shasta County. where he was employed as Lookkeeper in the Van Arsdale Lumber Company’s office. Young Haley's father was at one time principal of HeaN's Bysiness College. ~He died recently. While visiting his father at his West Berkeley home Haley became acquainted with Miss Nielsen, the daughter of L. N. BERKELEY GIRL WHO ELOPED WITH OLD-TIME SWEETHEART AND WEDDED HIM IN RENO. I have heard rumors that Ned has gone away with Miss Nielsen, but I do not know whether they are true. I have never heard that my brother was divorced, and if he is it is news to me. He has been employed for the ‘last seven years at Upton and was mar- ried less than a vear ago to a girl there. He was formerly engaged to Miss Nielsen, but the match was broken off for some reason which I never learned. His wife was visiting in San Francisco recently, but Ned was not with her thyn so far as I'know. I was told that he wds in West Berkeley last Sunday. His wife is now in Placerville with friends. A peculiar circumstance connected with Haley’'s first marriage is that neither his sister nor Miss Nielsen's relatives know the name of hi# first wife. VETERANS OF CIVIL WAR PETITION ROOSEVELT Hold Regular Meeting, at Which General Discussion Divides the Time With Resolutions. The Veterans of the Civil War Associa- tion met on Saturday evening for a dis- cussion of matters important to the mem- bers. A motion was made to send representa- tives to the Republican State League of Clubs, but after considerable discussion it was decided that on account of the large number of Democrats in the association representatives should not be sent. Strong resolutions were adopted in favor of the total exclusion of Chinese and Japanese and all other pauper labor. A resolution was adopted asking §Presi- dent Roosevelt to issue an order to the heads of departments to reinstate all vet- erans who were removed from their posi- tions on account of plitics. - e Knocked Down by a Bicycle.

Miss Belle Thelmey, while temporarily suffering from dementia, last night began to break the windows of the parochial res- idence of the pastor of St. Patrick’s Church. The unfortunate woman was placed under arrest by Officer W. H. Har- rison and removed to the Central Emer- gency Hospital, where one of her hands, which had been cut by the broken glass, was dressed. She was detained at the hos- pital on a charge of insanity. This is not the first time that Miss Thel- mey has developed a mania for breaking windows, but hitherto she has confined her attentions to those of her own house, at 211 Minna street. As far as is known by the police window breaking is the only way in which the unfortunate woman has siven signs of mental derangement. —_——— All for Young Men.

The detectives have practically given up any hope of finding the man who fired the fatal shot at Adolph Oppenheim in his shooting gallery on Dupont street late Thursday night. Every possible clew has been closely followed without any result. The officers still adhere to the theory that the shot was accidental and that the man who fired it either does not know that the bullet had struck Oppenheim or is _afraid to make himself known. The inquest will probably be held to- morrow, but Captain Seymour does not e:}:ect to have any further. evidence to offer than that already published. The theory that business rivalry had anything todo with the shooting is scouted by the police. —_——— Copies of the great Christmas edi- tion can be obtained from all agents, newsdealers, newsboys and at the Business Office of this paper.
