Brisson and Ensign Rey Are Ready to Fight Duel French Official Says Naval Man Slighted Wife Aboard Ship. Should any persons wandering through Golden Gate Park at an early hour this | morning hear pistol shots they may know that some gallant Frenchman, or maybe two,{has been sent beyond the turmoils of this turbulent sphere, but it will be great satisfaction to the people of the country to know that influential gentle- men of this city had, as law-abiding cit- izens, done all in their power to suppress | a bloody and unlawful deed. The threatened “shooting match” is the outcome of a wrangle that occurred on board the steamship Australia, which ar- rived here on Sunday from Tahiti, the parties to the quarrel being Guy de St. Brisson, administrator of the Marquesa: his wife, Mme. de St. Brisson, and Ensign J. Rey of the French navy. The ensign’s side of the story is that the husband is wroth because sufficient attention was not shown his wife. M. Brisson's side s that his anger was aroused because of the ensign's alleged | studied and therefore insulting frigidic toward the lady. 3 il ENSIGN COLDLY POLITE. Mme. Brisson is a lady of distinguished | bearing and beautiful to look upon and Monsieur is beyond everything else in the | world proud of her amiability and love- | liness. When the good ship steamed away from Tahiti the good M. Brisson intro- duced madame to the young ensign, who | politely acknowledged the honor confe upon him with a low bow, and for a time he matter ended. But the naval officer, | S people on board vessel do, came face! | to face with the wife of the administrator |of the Marquesas Islands and politely made his compliments-and admitted his distinguished consideration by raising hi: cap, but without demonstration or ecstacy. Once again the two met during a deck stroll and Ensign Rey, with the gallantry, minus the warmth of his countrymen, acknowledged the honor of the meeting with a bow and the usual formality. Mme. Brisson, who was used to the at- tentions and homage of all men who had | been given the honor of an introduction, | ;«’C‘(lo":‘lx\]x:itn!he (;in ign ]\\ s cold bevond all | c g and M.

Te, i self, demanded that it should take place this' morning and that the battle groung should be in the vicinity of Golden Gate Park, and friends at once sought Ensign Rey and made him acquainted with the determination.

Mrs. Smith Tells About Life With TlI-Tempered Husband. ~ Captain Colin Salmond of the steamer Wellington spent a very uncomfortable day in Judge Hebbard's court yesterday, and so did his wife, Mary E. Salmond. They have had a merry time of it since their marriage in 1836; and both of them are now trying to secure a divorce. Mrs. Salmond is determined that she shall get the decree on a charge of cruelty, and the captain is equally determined that he shall get the divorce. Fully twenty wit- nesses have appeéared so far in the case on behalf of both the litigants, and a great deal of contradictory testimony nas been given. Mrs. Salmond accuses her husband of being too lavish with his af- fecticns, and Captain Salmond says his wife consorts with people of poor charac- ter. Mrs. Salmond was a witness in her own behalf yesterday. She denied that she | ever accused Salmond of having too many lady friends, and branded her hushand's charges of cruelty as falsehoods. She | never, she said, made Salmond’s life mis- | erable by accusing him of being unfaith- | ful to her, and said that at no time on the steamer Wellington did she humiliate him by upbraiding him in the presence of his féllow officers. “Has your husband ever beaten you within the last two years?” asked Gavin ab, Mrs. Salmond's counsel. ery often,” was the answer. “He once threw a teapot at me, and on another ve- casion he struck me on the head with a vase, shattering the vase into a thousand pieces.” Mrs. Salmond said that she never as- sociated with a woman whose character was bad, and deried having any know!- edge of a Mrs. Moors. She said she knew of a Laur Laveaga, having met her where her iather and mother resided. ADMITS HIRING SPOTTERS. She admits having had Salmond’'s fcotsteps dogged on Several occasions, and says she did it because he failed to come home after his vessel arrived in rding to Mrs. Saimond her an inventive genius. She says his income of 320 a month as captain of the Wellington is swelled every month by receipts from patents he is interested in. What :]u'li('l\'s has he patented?” she s asked. ell, he is interested in a megaphone attdchment, a fog signal, a hook for the back of theater seats and a billlard cue ura Thompson was also a wit- voung lady said she met Sal- e Portland House, in Oakland, Salmond’s request, to ask him to his wife.

SMITH WAS SHAMMING. 'he divorce syit of Maud A. Smith inst W. F. Smith, the well-known architect and clubman, was heard in Judge Sloss’ court . by Judge Murasky vesterday. Further testimony will be heard this morning. Mrs. Smith testified that Smith com- menced abusing her thirteen months after thy marriage, in 1885. She said Smith po ses a violeng temper and would fly into a rage without the least provocation. Mrs. Smith said also that Smith com- pelled her to get up at night to apply hot plasters over his heart and to give him brandy and water, claiming that he was suffering from heart disease. She gaid she waited upon him until her doctor informed her that Smith shamming. “Immediately 1 ceased wi him,” said Mrs. Smith, “the divorce aginst James L.

City Attorney Lane filed an opinlon yes- terday with the Board of Supervisors in which he holds that the Board of Super- visors has no power to transfer the Lin- coln School property to the Public Library Trustees. The board had selected the site named for the purpose of building there- on the library building donated by An drew Carnegie. Lane holds that the prop erty does not belong to the city and coun- | ty, but is vested in the Board of Educa- tion for school purposes only. The opin- ion says: ol It would appear that every lawful endeavor possible was made by the city and county, under legislative sanction, to devote the Lin- coln School property exclusively to school pur- poses. Assuming that the Legislature nas power to change the character of the public ublic property may be put and also assuming that the Legislature may prop- erly exercise such power by means of a free- | holders’ charter and further assuming that the | authority may be vested in a Board of Super- visors to determine when such public use shall be changed, we reach the question herein con- ridered, namely: Is property, the lcgal title to which is in the Board of Education, the | beneficial title to which is in the pubiic, and in which, as is said In Martin Board of Education, supra, the municipality as a cor- | poration has no proprietary interest—is such land property belonging to the city and county? Giving its ordinary and customary meaning the word “‘belonging” it cerfainly would seem that such property does not belong to the municipality, and in the absence of judiclal definition of the phrase ‘‘real estate belongiag to the city and county” I cannot reach the conclusion that the charter refers to Droperty in the legal position of the Lincoln School lot.
