Judge Cook’s Decision Makes Tangle in Office of Jus- tices’ Clerk. All sorts of legal entanglements are in sight for Sheriff John Lackmann, the Jus- tices of the Peace and their recently d.e- posed clerk, Joseph Windrow. Some 000 or more litigants are also concerned in the matter. The recent decision of Judge Cook is responsible for ihis trouble. ‘When Windrow was appointed by the Justices of the Peace after Mayor Schmitz had removed Williams, and in addition the latter had resigned, he filed his official bond and opened an office as clerk of the Justices’ Court. Fredrick, who was ap- pointed by Mayor Schmitz to succeed Wil- liams, also had an office, and transacted business at the old stand. All the records of the office were in his possession. In entering cases a consecutive number- ing system is followed. When Windrow opened up his office he ascertained what number was used by Fredrick and stamped all his papers according to that numerical order. Now these papers are to recelve them. In some cases there are duplicate numbers according to Fredrick's record, but the cases in Fredrick’s office are different from those that came from Windrow's office. How many of these cases there are no one as yet Seems toy know. Sheriff Lackmann deposited yesterday and the day before with Clerk Powel Fredrick the returns on - thirty-two at- tachments in suits bearing the signature of Presiding Justice Daniels and Joseph Windrow as clerk. Fredrick declined to recelve them, and they were left on hig desk by the deputy sheriff who made the returns. In order that they might not be lost Fredrick placed them in an unused pigeonhole. He sald: I do not know anything about these papers. They were dumped here by the Sheriff. 1 simply picked them up and put them away 80 that they could be had when wanted. The numbers are concurrent with ours in some in- Stances, but as we have no record of the: fees being paid, or, to put it broader, no record of any of the cises, we cannot give, them any eonsideration. The amount involved in the suits which the papers cover approximates §2000. Each litigant has a chance to recover from the Sheriff the amount of money and the fees and other expenses attached to the litiga- tion. Then there is the question of dam- "This promises to be the most in- ting portion of the impending legal The consensus of legal opinion is that the Sheriff should have taken legal advice be- fore executing the attachments, The Sheriff said: We claim that as long_as the name of the presiding Justice of the Peace was signed to the papers, no matter of what nature they might be, 'we had no option in the matter ave to execute them. We returned them to the party designated by the presiding Judge of the Superior Court to receive them and then considered our business ended as far as these cases were concerned. Another conflict of authority that will have to be determined is the execution of judgments rendered in cases filed with Tredrick originally and reported to his office after the removal of Windrow. How many of these cases there are no one seems-to know. All that can be done 1s to await _the turning up of the papers. Win- drow deposited with the Treasurer some $800 in fees recelved by him. These have not yet been apportioned, and the Treas- urer does not know what to do with them. . The Justices of the Peace are in a quandary, too, because they have no docket upon which to work except that kept by Fredrick, and they do not seem ;fl‘l care to recognize him in any way at _—— AMENDED COMPLAINT FILED. Quo Warranto Proceedings to Ba Taken in Justice’s Clerk Case. An amended complaint in the matter of auditing the salary demand of Powell Fredrick for ten days in January was filed by Attorney Riordan Wednesday evening with Judge Cook and the Judge issued a 'gument has been fixed for next Tuetday. In the amended complaint Riordan takes an en- | tire change of base. Attorneys John S. Partridge and E. F. Treadwell obtained permission yesterday from the Attorney General to bring quo warranto proceedings to determine the legality of Fredrick's position. The pro- ceedings will be brought in the name of the State and will call upon both Wind- row and Fredrick to show by what war- Clerk of the Justices’ Court. It is ex- pected that the decision in this proceed- ing will settle definitely who is entitled to hold the office. SWEDISH COMEDY TO BE GIVEN IN THIS CITY A Clever Company of Actors Newly Organized to Interpret the g Plays. August F. Brandstedt, popular among the Swedish residents of San Francisco as an actor and producer of plays in the Swedish language, has newly organized a ccmpany of players, which will give its first performance at Turn Verein Hall on Saturday evening, Two comedies, one, “Ingvald Eneson,” and the other, ‘“The Senator’s Son,” will be given.

The heaviest fine ever imposed upon the keeper of a lottery place fell to the lot of Ah Jing, 607 Dupont street, yesterday. Judge Mogan had the evidence of turee vhite witnesses—Richard Depeler, Albert Creager and Paul Jackson—who were ar- rested for visiting the place and promptl. convicted Ah Jing and fined him $200. Al Charley was fined $0 for visiting place. Their attorney gave notice of ap- peal. The cases of the three white visit- ors were continued. The place was raid- grd“early Tuesday morning by Policeman illman, the —_—— Damage Suits Filed.

PINKHAM, Lyxx, Mass.: “DEAR MADAM:—T am suffering from inflammation of the ovaries and womb, and have been for eighteen months.- I have a continual pain and soreness in my back and side. I am only free from pain when lying down or sitting in an easy chair. When I stand 1 suffer with severe pain in my side and back. I believe my troubles were caused by over-work and lifting some years ago. “Life is a drag to me, and I sometimes feel like giving up ever being a well woman ; have become careless and unconcerned about everything. Iam in bed now. I have had several doctors, but they did me but little good. ““Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has been recommended to me by a friend, and I have made up my mind to give it fair trial. ““I write this letter with' the hope of hearing from you in Jyegard to my case ”—Mgs.

Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound has done for me. “I uad been suffering with female troubles for some time, could walk but a short distance, had terrible bearing- down pains in lower part of my bowels, backache, and pain in ovary. I used your medicine for four months and was so much better tkat I could walk three times the distance that I could before. “I am to-day in kstter health than T have been for more than two years, and I know it is all due to Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound. “I recommend your advice and medicine to all women who sufier.”—MRg‘ S. J. Warson, Hampton, Va. Mrs. Watson’s letters prove that Mrs. Pink- ham’s free advice is always forthcoming onm request and that it is a sure guide to health. These letters are but a drop in the ocean of evidence proving that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege~ table Compound CURES the llis of women. : No other medicine in the world has received such widespread and unqualified endorsement. No other medicine has such a record of cures of female troubles or such hosts of grateful friends. Do nof be persuaded that any other medicine Is just as good. Any dealer who , suggests something else has no interest in your case. He Is seeking a larger profit. Follow the record of this medicine and remember that these thousands of cures of women whose letters are constantly printed in this paper were not brought about by “something else,” but by Lydia E.
