14 THE SAN FRANCISCO L CALL, SATURDAY ADVERTISENENTS. The Breath of the Vineyard Every one knews that Royal Baking Powder is abso- lutely pure. Hence the housewife uses it with implicit con- fidence and without question, and she is justified in so doing. But how few realize that Royal Baking Powder¥s in its chief ingredient a direct product of the - healthful and delicious grape!l It is the mild acid of grapes, which crystallized and ground to an im- palpable powder is called cream of tar- tar, that forms the active principle of every pound of Royal Baking Pow- der. Fruit acid is in- dispensable to the healthfulness of the body, and the acid of the grape is the most valuable and healthful of all. Hence it is that Royal Baking Pow- der produces food remarkable both in flavor and whole- someness. The woman who has 2 past is seldom willing to admit that she has got past 40.

Complaint Made by Officers Brings About Needed Changes. ATER R A conference was field yesterday in the Mayor's office for the purpose of effect- ting some reforms in the methods of transacting business in the police courts. Acting Mayor Brandenstein, Police Com- missiopers Hutton and Mahoney, Chief of | Police Wittman,; several members of th2 Grand Jury and Police Judges Mogan, Conlan and Cabaniss were present. The principal complaint made by Chief Wittman® was that it was impossible to | find a Police Judge on duty in the after- noon and-consequently warrants could not be secured. He cited a case where an offender had made his escape owing to the absence of a Judge to issue a war- rant. The Police Judges present immediately agreed | that one of them would remain cn duty all afternoon hereafter in order that the police department may secure warrants. R Frandenstein urged that one Judge be on hand from 8:30 a. m. to 5 o'clock p. ni., asythe charter provides, but no agree- ment was reached on that point. It was also decided to frame an ordin- ance providing that a minimum fine of $50 wili be imposed on any person selling liquors without a license. Commissioner Hutton asked the co-operation of the Judges in suppressing the evils arising | from the saloons near the Presidio and he was assured tHat his requgst would be granted. g \ \ ! The Judges were asked questions as to their custom regarding continuances on affidavits only as the charter provides | and dismissals without first hearing tes- timony. . Judge Cabaniss said that the Jaw was complied with as far as practic- | |able. He also said that Hutton's sug- gestions that thosé arrested for drunken- | | ness be fined, so as to increase-the rev- enue of the city, would work a hardship on casual offenders if generally carried | out. LAWYER DORSEY SECURES REDUCTION OF ALIMONY Claims That Because of Recent Mar- riage of His Daughter His Wife Needs Less Money. Judge Sloss granted a motion for reduc- tion of allmony yesterday, made by the | | | | prominent attorney, who is being sucd | for éivarce by Mattie B. Dorsey. The're- cuction was made because of the recent | marriage of Dorsey’s daughter, who lived with her mother, to Captain G. W. Ruth- | ers. In the future Dorsey will pay his | wife only $50 a month, instead of $80, the amount he was ordered to pay by Judge Sloss some months ago. Judge Sloss de- nied the motion to dissolve the injunction restraining Dorsey from disposing of his law library and household furnityre. Cordelia A. Botkin, who is béing sucd for divorce by Welcome A. Botkin, de- murred to her husband’s complaint yes- terday on the ground that there is a sim- ilar action pending. Mrs. Botkin is at present confined in the county jail await- | ing a nmew trial on a charge of having murdered Mrs. John P. Dunning of Wil- mington, Del. ? Suits for divorce were fileds yesterday by Maggle Merrill against Francis Mer- rill for desertion and Faith A. Coombs against Marion G. Coombs for failure to provide. — e —— RECEIPTS FROM LICENSES FOR OCTOBER ARE LARGE Tax Collector E. J. Smith reported yes- terday that the receipts of the License Offiee for the month of October amounted to $56,033 25, an increase over the corre- sponding month of last year of §1002. The | principal items that go to make up the total are: Retail liquor, $25,641; restaurant | lquor, $622; peddlers, $2622; slot machines, | $7862; ‘banks, $2716; theaters, $904; street | railway cars, $2605; pawnbrokers, $620 | restaurants, lodging-houses, etc., $1926; | laundries, $1040. Smith says that, considering that slot | machine licenses have fallen off about | $5000, owing to the withdrawal of large machines from saloons, the showing is an excellent one. The Tax Office has collected since Oc- tober 13, when taxes became due, about $248,000—a little more than $12,000 a day— leaving about $3,500,000 to be collected be- fore November 24, taxes being delinquent on that date. —_———— ‘Will Preach Series of Sermons.

A dismissal of the suit to recover $89,- brought by Henry J. Crocker against William H. Crocker was filed yesterday with the County Clerk. The suit was commenced six moiths ago, but never came to trial. Henry J. Cro¥ker alleged in his comi- plaint that his cousin, W. H.

EMBER 1, NATION'S FLAG - DRAPES CASKET The Transport Sheridan Brings Chaplain Mc- ~ Kinnon’s Body. 1902, Federal and State Troops Will Participate in Funeral On the deck of the army transport Sheridan, which arrived from the Philip- pines early yesterday morning, is the flag-covered casket containing the re- mains of the late Rev. Father Willlam D. McKinnon, who died suddenly in Luzon after a career of most conspicuous loyal- ty to the flag and the expenditure of a | measure of devotion and self-sacrifice which made for him enduring fame as a omilitary chaplain. The news of the celebrated priest’s death was received in a cablegram from | Manila on September 2{. The fact of his | serious illness from dysentery had not generally been known by his thousands of | friends in this city ana they felt keenly the lamentable passing of a man whose manifold virtues were unrivaled and whose renown was of international com- pass. The body will be removed from the ves- sel at the transport dock at 3 o’clock to- morrow . afternoon. Company A of the First Infantry Regiment, National Guard of California, Captain Bailinger, will act as escort and sergeants from the Presidio garrison have been selected as pall-bear- ers. The remains are to be conveyed on a caisson and will first be delivered to an undertaker, and at noon on Monday will rest in state at the armory on the corner of Page and Gough streets. The funeral is to be held from the ar- mory Wednesday morning. The casket will be replaced on the caisson by non- commissioned officers of the regular army. Besides the First Infantry Regiment of the National Guard there will be in line one company of United States troops, representing the National Government; Spanish-American war veterans, officers of the regular; militia and former volun- teer servites, the Young Men’s Institute, and associates of the late chaplain in the various organizations with which he was connected. The cortege will proceed to St. Domi- nic’s Church at Bush and Steiner streets. There a requiem high mass will be said and on its conclusion the casket will be placed in a hearse for the journey to Holy Cross Cemetery, It has been'decided to dispense with the caisson at the church because of its great weight and.the possi- ble poor condition of the road. Colonél Thomas O'Neill, commanding the First Infantry, with which Father McKinnon went to Manila in 1868, when it had the more familiar title, “First Cali- fornia,” issued an order last evening for the parade of his commahd and included in it eulogistic mention of the distin- guished priest.

Hall, a gleaner from the north- ern gold fields, says he was relieved of $765 and a watch and nugget chain valued at $250 Thursday afternoon by a bevy of industrious bunko men, who are said by the police to have added ‘“knockout” drops to the usual inducements offered for separating a victim from his money. Hall arrived on the St. Paul from Nome Monday and teok apartments at the Golden West. He went a quiet pace, ac- cording to his story, until Thursday, when he wandered into the saloon at 41 Turk street. He met a crowd of affable men, who drank with him and treated in turn. In their companionship, he says, he went to the Sterling saloon, at 604l5 Mission street, and after a few drinks the bartender was induced to allow the party into the rear room, where a game of dice for money was started. Hall says he lost rapidly, his losses consisting of $5 in cash and his watch and chain. Finally he was induced, be says, to sign his name to a check which he had on. his person issued by the Scan- dinavian Bank of Seattle for $700 and Which was payable at the Crocker-Wool- worth Bank without identification. After signing the check he claims he took one more drink and remembers nothing else until he was awakened by Detectives Ryan and O'Dea yesterday afternoon at the Golden West Hotel. They,found him in such a condition that they took him to the City Prison to recover his senses. Subsequently they gained a ‘coherent story from him, and with the description W'eek.
