FLEES WITH " 6AY PAREE” DANSEUSE Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, June 2. A “Gay Paree” girl has broken up the | once nappy family of Willlam Vincent, until three days ago an employe of the Southern Pacific Company. The show left | town the night the Elks’ Carnival closed and Vincent went with the lady who does the muscle dance. His wife is distracted over his conduct and his infant child crys for a father. The Vincent family lived in perfect har- mony at 835% Seventh street until “Gay Paree” came to town. The husband took his wife and baby to see it. He struck up | an acquaintance with the muscle dancer | and was soon infatuated with her painted charms. He went again and again and finally informed his wife of his attach- ment. She protested in vain. When last Saturday arrived Vincent drew half a month’s pay from the rail- road company and resigned his ‘Eosl(lum Then he went home and told his wife that he was going to Reno with the “Gay Paree” company. He was a passenger on | the train with his charmer when it pulled out of the depot Sunday morning. @ ettt @ tandard of political and social life in {eiand; to clean it physically and morally; to make justice even and fair in it; to found & school system that should be akin to our own; tc teach the people after four centuries of misrule that there were such things ms overnmental righteousriess and honesty and §air play for all men on their merits as men.

Sixty mii- lions of dollars passed through his hands, and he came out having to draw on his slender capital ir order that he might come out even when be left the island. Credit to him? Yes, in a way. In another, no particular credit, because he was bullt 5o that he could do notis- ing olse.. He came out having done that and as having devoted himself to the good of the Cuban people in all their relations as man couid. He has come back here and has been attacked, forsooth, by people who are not mere- ly unworthy of having their names coupled with his, but vho are incapable of understand- ing the motives that have spurred him on to bring liencr to this republic.

He came back here the other day. The man has always had the honorable ambition to get upon the Supreme Court, and he knew that I had always hoped he would be put upon the Supreme Court, and when there was a question of & vacancy aris- ing I said to him. “Governor, I think I ought to tell you that if a vacancy comes in the Su- preme Court, while it would give you an op- portunity to be put in the position you would like to have, I think I ought to tell you that if such a vacancy should occur I do not see how I could poesibly give it to you, for I need you where you are.’” He said to me, “Mr. President, it has always been my dream to be in the Supreme Court, but it you should offer me a Justiceship now and at the same time Congress should take off entirely my salary as Governor, 1 should go straight back to the Philippines, neverthe- less, for those people need me, and expect me back, and belleve 1 won't desert them.” He has gone back, gone as a strong friend among weaker friends. to help them upward along the stony and difficult path of self-government.

He has gone back to do all of that use it is his duty and he gees it. We are to be congratulated, we Americans, that we have a fellow American like Taft.

No SALEM, Or., June 25.—Champoeg, an | historic town in this county, was this morning the scene of a sensational mur- der. John D. Fain, for many years a business man of Champoeg, was shot in the front of his house at 5 o'clock. His former partner, J. F. Markiey, is held in the County Jail, charged with the crime. Fain and Markley dissolved partnership a year ago, Markiey retaining the store building and business. Recently Fain sold the land on which the store stands to another resident of Champoeg Markley was last night given notice to move the building off the land within six months. This morning, as Fain came out of his house at the rear of the store and passed the store, he was shot. Neighbors, hearing the report, rushed to his ald in time to hear the statement of the dying man. He accused Markley, who, he said, had opened the back door of the store, and, exclaiming, “We will now have a settlement, and you'll take your medicine,” fired at close range. Fain died two hours later. His weapon was a shotgun and a charge of buckshot had entered Fain's left side, passing through the abdominal wall. Markley is wealthy and an old settler. Fain also was well to do. Both men were bachelors. Fain has two sisters in Mis- souri and a father in Los Angeles.

L o e e e e e e e e ol CONSULAR AGENT MAY BE RECALLED Treasury Department to Investigate the Case of Yang Tsang Cheng. The case of Yang Tsang Cheng, con- sular agent for the Chinese Empire at to the attention of the Secretary of the Treasury, and Customs Collector Strat- | ton has been requested by the depart- ! ment to make an investigation and to | submit to the authorities at Washington | his report. It was a law of the Hawaiian kingdom | in the days of jovial King Kalakaua that no opium for smoking purposes should be allowed to be introduced into the islands. The law was continued in force when the islands were annexed to the United | States and still continues. Hence the | | and is very large, and bécause of the ii ducements offered the Treasury Depart- ment has insisted that the local law should be enforced rigidly. Several weeks |age Yang Tsang Cheng, who had been recently appointed by the Chinese Government, arrived at Honolulu to as- sume his duties as consular agent. He trought with him twenty-two trunks supposed and represented to contain his personal baggage. These trunks were al- { lowed by the customs officials to be land- | ed without being examined for dutiable | or prohibited goods, the exemption being | a matter of courtesy in the case of em- bassadors and other diplomats. Soon af- | ter Yang’'s arrival it was discovered that lerge quantities of smoking opium were | being sold at prices considerably below the ruling rate- and an investigation | brought to light facts tending to show | | that the opium had been smuggled by | Consular Agent Yang. | _The Treasury Department notified E. | R. Stackable, "collector of the port of | | Honolulu, that consular agents are not | | ranked as diplomats and that Yang was | | not entitled to the privilege of having his baggage landed without examination. Collector Stackable has replied that he | yas very new to his duties when Agent Yang arrived, but that he had requested | the United States quarantine cfficer to | be very careful when fumigaling the ! | trunks, to see that they did not contain ] opium. Should it appear from the evidence that | Yang smuggled any opium into Hawalian territory, the United States Government | will request the Chinese Government to recall Agent Yang as an_ exceedingly un- pleasing person, in the diplomatic sense.

Private Detective’s ,Spouse Turns Sleuth to Find Evidence. Blanche Vannatta, with the assistance of two lady friends, convinced Judge Mu- rasky yesterday that Charles E. Vanna!«l ta, her husband, was not a model spouse. and he accordingly granted her a divorce. She brought suit on the grounds of cruel- ty and infidelity. Vannatta did not de- fend the action. The troubles in the Vannatta household are due to Miss Edith Pierson, Mrs. Van- natta’s sister, for whom Vannatta dis- played an affection not in keeping with his relation of brother-in-law. Mrs. Van- natta objected strenuously to the change in affections, but to no avail. She even begged Miss Pierson to go home to her ' mother and leave her in the enjoyment of | Vannatta’s Wwaning love and affection, but received little satisfaction. The erisis | was reached when Vannatta, under pre- text of making a business trip to Santa | Cruz, went away for a few days, taking | Miss Pierson with him. Prior to that trip | Mrs. Vannatta was convinced that her husband thought more of his sister-in- | law than he did of his wife. She learned of several very suspicious moves on the | part of her husband and her sister from drs. Mary McDevitt and Mrs. E. H.| Easton, who conduct the house where Vannatta lives. These ladies corroborat- ed Mrs. Vannatta's testimony yesterday. Vannatta conducted a privaté detective agency at 4024 Twenty-third street. He | was formerly superintendent of the San Franeisco branch of the Pinkerton Detec- tive Agency and resigned his post “by request.” The amours of Vannatta wiil cost him a pretty penny besides the loss of his wife. He must pay her $130 during the next two months, $50 a month ali- | mony thereafter, and must also pay $100 counsel fees and $22 50 costs of suit.
