She added fuel to the fire by telling of the appointment he had tried to make for the evening. Grundman then | went to meet the clerk.

Then Grundman flushed with anger. | With an oath he drew his revolver and | pointed it at Chipman, saying, as he did so0, that death was too good for a man who would drag a woman down and then publish her disgrace. The first bullet struck Chipman in the wrist and:passed | through it. The men grappled and stum- bled down the stairway to a midway landing, each struggling for the posses- sion of the pistol as they fell.

He roomed at 1566 Kentucky street, with O'Farrell and family Shortly after half past 8 o'clock yesterday morning, Maggie, the daughter of the landlord, was passing Wallace’'s room and detected the odor of {lluminating gas. She informed her father, who forced an entrance and found Wallace's dead Fody, in full uniform, squatting on the floor and resting on the side of the ded. The penciled will lay by his side. It reads as follows: “Money in Hibernia Bank I leave to my brother, J. B. Wallace. Book in bahk. Also one lot South San Francisco. Please give this note to Mullanay, Russ. House. .. WALLACE."

Finally Grundman, on his back and with the clerk upon him, suc- the gun at Chipman’s heart. The bullet did its work guickly and the victim, with a moan, fell dead. Nearly three hundred clerks, headed by the janitors of the two floors, rushed to the scene. At sight of the pistol most of them scampered to cover. Janitor John Donahue, on the upper floor, shouted to Janitor August Swanson on the floor be- low to stop Grundman, but the latter quietly surrendered himself and was locked in a room until the arrival of Lieu- tenant Colby and Policemen Pat Tracy, MINE OWNERS TO MEET IN CONVENTION TO-DAY Two Sessions Will Be Held for Pur- pose of Effecting Permanent Organization.

W. Dwineile, at 127 Weber street, Some time ago he had a falling ,out at home and left. Since then his communications have been rare with the family. “Sherry”, Chipman, as he was famillarly- known on the streets, had no special calling while he lived in Ale meda, except to have been employed at | times in the auditor's deparument of the | Southern Pacific Company. | i Some twelve or fifteen v go “Sherry” Chipm: a difficulty n Alameda about a girl. He was, arrested. | but there wfs no prosecution. He has | been a roving blade and spent little ume* at home. The Chipmans are among the very old- est- families in Alame: W. W. Chip- the father, who died many years ago, was one of the first settlers on the Encinal. With Gideon Aughinbaugh ne | laid out much of the townsité and ac- quired a great deal of property. Many of the tracts still bear his name on tne records. After the elder Chipman's death his widow married J. W. Dwinelle, who was prominent in the legislation for the founding of the University of California. She is widowed for the second time. Young Chipman was 35 years old and so far as his family knows was unmarried. A brother, Will Chipman, was formerly a captain of Company G, Fifth Regi- ment, National Guard of. California, of this city. There are three sisters, Mrs, L. W. Tripp, Miss Fannie Chipman ! and Miss Alice Chipman, all of Alameda. involved in w To Visit San Francisco { ‘Without seeing the Diamond Palace | would be like visiting Europe without | seeing Paris, It is a leading feature of San Franci and is conceded to be the most beautiful jewelry store in the world.

WEDS 3IX TIMES IN NINE YEARS Mrs. Wanda Zecher Has a Fondness for Men of Medicine. Mrs. Wanda Zecher, the woman who has pad many husbands, appeared in Police Judge Cabaniss’ court yesterday to testi- fy against her last husband, Arthur R.| on the charge brought against| Zecher, which she alleged was born in Baltimore, Md., last January. Attorney Emil Leiss, who represented Zecher, asked that the case be dismissed, as he had documents to prove that the womar's marriage to Zecher was bigam- ous and proceedings had been instituted in the courts here to have the marriage an- | nulled. The Judge said he could not dis- miss the case on that showing and wgnted Mrs. Zecher ried In New York on September 21, 1901, to Zecher. She was the proprietress of a steam bath establishment there. She had been married to a Dr. George Muller, but found that he'was a married man at the | time and she had the marriage annulled | before she wedded Zecher. Zecher desert- ed her in September last and went to Mil- waukee, finally coming to this city. He had been talking about her before he left New York and telling her friends that she had seven husbands living, which was not true. She learned from a letter he had Wfl( n to a friend that he was stopping Sg Howard street and after she ar-| rived here she called upon him and asked | him to support their child, Alga, which had been born in Baltimore. In cross-examination she admitted that ghe was living at the Golden West Hotel with Oscar Schortmann and that they | were registered as man and wife. She denied that she had ever lived in East Saginaw, Mich., but would not deny that she had married Schortmann there on November 10, 1802. Leiss said that he could prove that she was married to Schortmann in East Sag- inaw, her name then being Wandalina Jordan, and that when she married Zecher in New York Schortmann was introduced to him as her brother and acted as best man. Besides having been married to Dr. Muller in Jersey City on November 2, 1900, she had been previously married to a Dr. Schmidt, who had since died; to a Dr. Vorwerk, a physician on one of the German steamers plying between New York and Hamburg, and to a Joseph Tucker. Her marriage to Dr. Muller had noet been annulled when she married Zecher. The defense denmied that Mrs. Zecher had given birth to a child last January in Baltimore or anywhere olse. The Judge said he had no jurisdiction in the case and would have to dismiss it, because even if a child had been born it was admitted that the child was in an- otiher State. For over half a century ‘“Jesss Moore” Whisky has held its supremacy as the bes purest and most palatable. —_—————— ‘Will Develop Oil Lands.
