14 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, JUNE 5, 1902 ADVERTISEMENTS. CHANGES SCENE |Brisson Listens to Wise Counsel and Promises Not to Violate the Laws of California. TO HIS BELOVED PARIS OF DUEL e | GIBSON'’S . Observations No. 10 ||| o Published by “Your Bosom Friend,” every once in a while il i I notice a good many men who wear shirts il that don’t fit them as they should. Do you know you’re handicapping your | 1 tailor and spoiling your temper by wearing such garments as these? Now, listen to me. You ought to come down here and let me fit you for a shirt—just one for a starter—to | show you the difference. I don’t want to ! persuade you to buy a dozen—one will be enough'to prove my case; a matter of a dollar or a dollar and a half. Better come to-day. i John T. Gibson, “Your B Friend.” JIif onn 1.

It is not known how the fire started, | but Herold is of the opinion that the chil- dren_were playing with matches. The storehouse, which adjourns the bakery on the west side, is a long one-story frame building about twenty feet high with a | side window on the upper floor of \hei bakery building. The children of late| have been in the custom of playing on | | the roof. They went out on it about 11 o'clock yesterday morning, after tiring of playing in the yard below. Herold was | on the upper floor of the bakery, half an hour later, and looked out of the side window to see if the children were on the roof. To his horror he discovered that the rear portion of the storehouse was | ire. The flames were spreading along | | the wall and an instant later a cloud of | | dense black smoke poured out from the storehouse. LOST IN BLINDING SMOKE.

I appreciate that we, that is M. ! Rey and myself, are in a foreign land and {it is my intention to do nothing here that would violate the law. However, when | M. Rey is on French ground the matter, | I assure you, will be different. I wait for | that time.” “M. Rey feels, on his side, aggrieved because of your calling him a ‘hog,’ " was remarked to M. Brisson. “M. Rey! poof! poof! poof! I call him a hog! Ah! It is rediculous. But when we meet in France, aha! When we meet in France, then—wéll, 1 have told you we shall see! I can say no more; it would be a breach of the etiquette of my coun- try. Oh! that we should be on foreign soil!” The Administrator of the Marquesas Islands, having excitedly given vent to his regrets, hastened to his rooms with fire in his_eye and anger in his heart. Ensign Rey, on the other hand, was decidedly cool and collected throughout | the day. He received many visitors and also went out visiting many places of interest. The gallant ensign declares that he has no desire to fight and still cannot under- stand the cause he has given M. Brisson for so great an exhibition of anger. He will be In Paris about the same time the Administrator of the Marquesas 1 Islands arrives there, but he has also de- | termined to do nothing that might bring { him within the pale of the laws of Cali- | fornia. But the affair has taken deeper root than was ever contemplated by those con- | cerned in the proceedings, for the French | Consul made no secret of his vexation | over the matter. He has made his feel- | Ings known to the principals in the affair | and suffers from the fear that the dis- pute in the United States .between an | officer of the French navy and an official representing the French Government may bring ridicule upon that Government. Representative Frenchmen of the city, on the other hand, take issue with the French Consul and declare that he is wrong in supposing that the quarrel can possibly bring ridicule on his Government. There are Frenchmen, and M. Brisson is among the number, who declare that Cap- tain Lawless of the Australia is to blame for not allowing the duel to. take place on board his ship, the point raised in support of their contention being the fact that the Australia, though an American vessel, I *: ADMINISTRATOR OF MARQUE- SAS ISLANDS, WHO WOULD FIGHT A DUEL. -+ was carrying French mail and flying a French flag, and, therefore, the parties to a duel would not, they contend, under those circumstances, be amenable to the laws of the United States. Now comes the imperial Consul General of Turkey in the controversy. One of the parties to the dispute waited upon that gentleman and begged that he accept the position of a second at the duel, which was expected to take place in the viecinity of Golden Gate Park yesterday morning. George Eli Hall, the Consul General, lis- tened to all the arguments put forward tq induce him to accept the position, but declined the honor with many thanks. The Consul General therefore may have to explain to his Majesty, the Sultan, even the innocent and unlooked for part he has played in the drama. The French Consul will, in the course of his duty, report the whole matter to his Government, the officlal position of the chief partles to the quarrel making such a proceeding necessary. saw the shoes. better.

T0 THE PUBLIC, The undersigned begs leave to heartily thank his many customers in this city and vicinity for the confidence and moral support given him during the annoyance and irritation forced upon him by the so- called “Mayerle & Co.,” who unserupul- ously opened an office next door and cov- ered its front with signs almost identical to mine and also by the use of false state- ments and specious arguments endeavored thus to decelve. With the assistance of the public it has been possible to expose their dishonest practices which, reacting upon themselves, have compelled them to close their place. The people of San Fran. cisco have once again evidenced the faet that they will not stand for underhand dealings but are always ready to support an institution that has honesty and thor- oughness for its motto. The urdersigned has been a resident of San Francisco for many yvears and upon the reputation he has built must rest his future success. To all my old patrons and prospective customers I beg to assure the same honest and straightforward treat- ment that had characterized my past pro. fessional conduct.
