Says Her Spouse Juggles With Bad Words and Coffee Pots. A coffee pot, & knife and bad language | figure in great variety in the suit for di- | vorce filed by Minnie Bickerstaff against Joseph Bickerstaff yesterday. According to the complaint, Bickerstaff is a past master in the use of billingsgate. Mr::. Bickerstaff charges that her husband's language is too bad ‘“‘even for a divorce | compiaint.” She alleges that his words are vile, indecent and opprobrious.” “The coffee pot incident referred to bY‘ | Mrs, Bickerstaff, she alieges, occurred on the night of December 14 of last year. “He took the coffee pot,” alleges Mrs. | | Bickerstaff, “and threatened to throw it | at me, but was restrained by the plead- | ings of his children, of whom there are seven.” Mrs. Bickerstaff alleges that she left | her husband after the coffee pot incident | and remained away from him until he promised to reform, when she again res | sumed her relations with him. But he | did not keep his promise, she alleges, for | he again resumed his cruel conduct. He took a knife, she alleges, a short time after her return to her home, held it at her throat and threatened to kill her. The Bickerstaffs, who were married in 1882, reside on Folsom street. Mr. Bick- erstaff, alleges his wife, is a strong, able- | bodied man, earning $4 per day. She asks | for a reasonable sum as alimony and l‘nc‘ | custody of the children. | Alphonsie Batteate is suing Antone Bat- | teate for divorce for fallure to provide. | They were married in 1892 and have three children, who have been for the last year inmates of the San Francisco Children's Orphanage on Sanchez street. Mrs. Bat- teate alleges that she has had to depend upon her own exertions and the charity of friends for her support for the last three years. Mary Wood filed an action for divorce | on the ground of desertion against Wii- liam M. Wood yesterday. She alleges that he deserted her more than a year ago. | They were married in Sonoma County In 1878, and have several children, all of whom have reached their majority. | $4.85—A Man’s Suit—8$4.85.

Thomas Featherstone and Michael M. Reed, who escaped from jail at Jackson. ville, Or., and were recaptured at Eu- the City Prison yesterday by Deputy | Sheriff H. G. McCarthy of Jackson Coun- | ty, Or., who will take them back to Jack- | sonville. Featherstone and Reed were arrested for robbing a farmhouse near Jackson- ville, and while in jail became acquainted | with a Mrs, Martin, who was awaiting | trial for deserting her husband and elop- ing with another man. Mrs. Martin and Featherstone often met in the corridors and she became infatuated with him. She | was allowed considerable freedom and | planned to release Featherstone. One night she abused the turnkey’s confidence nd unlocked the door of the cell in which Feztherstone and Reed were con- fined. They made their escape, and it is suspected that Mrs. Martin supplied them | with money. he confessed to aiding them to get away and said it was love for Featherstone that prompted her to | help them out of jail. | ———— A Market-Street Problem. Gibson, the shirt man on Market street, known as “your bosom friend,” offers a neat little example for those mathemati- cally inclined. Gibson weighs 120 pound: he claims that he may be a lightweight, but that he can buy as close as the heav- ier buyers. Now, Gibson has expanded | twice as’ big. The problem is er he will still weigh 120 or will i up to 24) pounds. —_———— is Seven Years for Bair. Ulysses G. Bair, the prince of bad dol- Jar manufacturers, was sentenced in the United States District Court yesterday by Judge de Haven to imprisonment in the San Quentin Penitentiary for seven years and to pay a fine of $1000.

VAT B 2 — Says the Klondiker Promised Her 85000 to Leave Dawson. Charles Anderson, the Don Juan of the frozen north, who became famous through the breach of promise action brought against him by Miss Alma de Bretteville, a beautiful artist whose af- i fections had been trifled with by the | “man from the Klondike,”” is again made | @ defendant in a suit cadleulafed to re- lieve him of some of the gold .he dug from the ice-covered ground of Alaska. Annie Anderson, a &ister of the gay | Charles, is the plaintiff in this the latest action against the love-lorn Anderson. She sues for $5000, which, she alleges, An- derson promised her if she would leave Dawson City and take up her residence in this or any other city or town in Cali- fornia. ’ She charges that her brother persuaded her by a promise of gold to give up a situation which had been promised in Dawson when she was there in August of last year. She left Dawson, she al- .leges, and came’ to this city, and on Jan- uary 2, 1502, asked her brother for the §5000 he had promised her for doing so. | He refused to paft with his nuggets, she alleges, and has not since pald any part of the sum. She asks the court to award her judg- ment for $5000, with interest at 7 per cent since January 2. v Anderson seems fated to become a per- petual litigant. This is his fourth ap- pearance in the Superior Court, and each action has relieved him of quite a portion of his hard-earned wealth. Two years ago he was sued for divorce. That cost | him several thousand dollars, .Then he was sued by a namesake fer the recovery of certain claims in the Yukon. He won | this action, but it cost him a pretty pen- | ny. Then came the sensational suit for $50,000 damages for breach of promise in- stituted against him by Miss de Brette- ville, which resulted in a verdict for $1250 for the young lady. Now his sister is after his gold, and time .only can tell how many more suits will be instituted. Trouble ‘seems to worry the jolly | Swede but very little. He meets every fresh legal attack with a grin, and when defeated puts his hand into his pocket with a laugh and pays the score. { ELEVEN-YEAR-OLD BO_Y KILLED IN A RUNAWAY Horse Becomes Unmanageable and Little Frank Clarke Is Thrown TSTIVIVELKIULKE - - OR a number of years efforts have been made to preserve the his- torical relics and landmarks of California, and among the accom- plishments in this line most worthy of mention are those of the Na- tive Scns in saving to the State Sutters Fort at Sacramento and the old Custom- house at Monterey. The Native Daugh- ters have taken up the matter and at the session of the last Grand Parlor adopted the following by a unanimous vote: Whereas, It is apparent that many historical landmarks in the State of California are fall- ing into decay, suffering at the hands of dals or giving way to the march of prove- ment”; and Whereas, It is believed that many relics and documents’ of historical value exist which are held in light appreciation by their possessors; and Whereas, It is the sense of this Grand Parlor that such landmarks, when practicable, should be preserved and their historical value made public, and that the relics, documents and other ‘scattered articles of historical value should be gathered together and preserved for the benefit of the State and.its people, and as it is a just and pecoming task for a patriotic organization like the Native Daughters of the Golden Wést to undertake the work of search- ing for, preserving and perpetuating such land. marks ‘and gathering together all such his- torical documents and relics as are not al- ready set apart in the archives of the State or in museums or other repositories accessible to the public; therefore be it To Seek Information. Resolved, That preliminary to the work of such preservation and collection the grand president is hereby authorized to appoint a gen- eral committee of not less than three, which committee shall proceed at once, upon its ap- pointment, to communicate with the subordi- nate parlors with a view to securing informa- tion concerning the location, character, owner- ship. condition and value of sich articles or landmarks above mentioned; and be it further Resolved, That the general committee herein © GEARY STREET, Cor.
