NGHAM,.CURTISS & WELCH. * e ———————— SAYS ALCALDE GRANTS DO NOT PERFECT TITLES Supreme Court Ei;bli:he- New Principle for Dealers in Lo- cal Real Estate. In a decision rendered yesterday the Su- preme Court declared that the title to property in San Francisco is defective if a deed from the city is lacking. The so- called alcalde grants are consequently of little or no value in the determination of the perfection of titles to real estate, The opinion was handed downs in the case of Grim vs. Calegaris. The first named bargained to purchase some prop- erty from the last named in September, 1898, The sum of $2500 was paid down on the understanding that $47,500 more woudd be forthcoming when it should have been ascertained that the title to the land was perfect. Margaret Kelly bought the property meanwhile and Grim sued to recover the $2500 he had paid and $50 additional for expenses. Calegaris maintained that his adversary had broken the original gon- tract and declined to settle. The plaintiff alleged that he had found the title de- fective, because there was an absence of a deed from the city for the land. Cale- garis asserted that an alcalde grant suf- ficed. The trial court agreed with the defend- ant, but the higher tribunal has ordered a reversal, establishing incidentally a new principle in local real estate transactions, ————— Observe Flag Day. Lincoln Relief Corps No. 3, auxiliary to the Grand Army of the Republic, at its last held session in the Pioneer building, had 2 most enjoyable evening with exer- cises appropriate to American Flag day. The programme included a recitation, “0ld wlory,” by Mary J. Farolini, secre- tary of the corps; the reading of an ex- gerpt from “The Veteran Soldier,” writ- ten by Robert Ingersoll, by Mary E. Fer- guson, treasurer of the corps, and the singing of the “Star-Spangled Banner” by the corps, all of whicn was a fitting ob- servance of the one hundred and twenty- sixth anniversary of the adoption of the glorious emblem of the United States. Mrs, Carrie M. Dibble presented the corps a new and beantiful twenty-foot Ameri- can flag, and in a brief address compli- mented the mémbers of Lincoln for their loyalty to the flag and to those brave and gallant men who from "6l to '65 fought to maintain the honor of *Old Glory.” The gift was gracefully acecepted by Mrs, Leeds, president on behaii of the corps. This corps has increased to such an ex- tent during the last eighteen months that it has been found mnecessiry to secure larger quarters in the Pioneer building. The coros will keep open house at its headquarters during the national encamp- ment, and will assist Lincoln Post, G, A. R., in entertaining visiting comrades of the Grand Army.

SARCELY HEARS WORDS OF GOURT Reeling Docia Nolan, Under Blow, Re- ceives Sentence. ——— All the efforts of Docia Nolan's attor- ney to clog the wheels of justice in her behalf have proved futile, and yesterday ghe was sentenced by Judge Burnett of Santa Rosa, sitting in Department 12 of the Superior Court of this county, to serve eight years in San Quentin for her participation in the robbery of Mrs. El’l‘l- ma Mathews at the home of the latter’s daughter, Mrs. Ida Tuttle, 543 Halght street, on March 4. The defendant was in a condition of utter collapse during the course of the proceedings and was supported by her two sisters. It is doubtful if she under- stood the words of the Judge while he was pronouncing sentence upon her. To save her from the gaze of the crowd that stood outside . the Hall of Justice on Kearny street, she was taken, after sen- tence, in the elevator to the basement and Captain Kincaid was waiting for her in a buggy in Dunbar alley. She was assisted into the buggy and driven down Washington street to Montgomery and out to the branch County Jail. When the case was called yesterday morning Attorney Schooler announced that he had no affidavits to file and it is presumed that he had failed to convince Michael Nolan, Bernard Whitelaw and John Davis, the thugs yet to be tried for the crime, that it would be to thefr in- terest to make afidavits that they were guilty and that the woman was innocent. Schooler then proceeded to argue a mo- tion for a new trial, but the Judge quick- 1y squelched all his propositions and de- nied the motion. ' Schooler thereupon made a motion for arrest of judgment and asked that the defendant be discharged upon the ground, among other things, that the information was illegal. “Do you really think,” asked the Judge, quietly, “that there is anything wrong with the information?” “I hope to show your Honor,” replied Schooler, “that the information is abso~ lutely void,” and he continued for nearly an hour in that effort, but the Judge de- nied his motion. Schooler had no other motions to make and the Judge passed sentence on the prisoner. The attorney then intimated that he would take an appeal to the Su- preme Court and was granted a ten days' stay to give him .time in which t oprevare the necessary papers. ..1215,¢ a plece CRCHIEFS, made narrow hemstitch, Sec a piece Attention, Dressmakers, and Those Who VALENCIENNES LACE— new dotted pattern, full three-quarters of an inch wlde.slz OOD-FIBER LACE in designs, full 215 d cream; Now.. - 75¢ OR ANTIQUE INSERTION— made of good, heavy linen thread in square and cres- cent designs; just the lace for dres'ioo!'

HOUBLE BESET FATHER W, 0. Y His Resignation From St. John’s Provokes Comment. The resignation, owing to opposition to his methods, of Father W. N. Rdy of St. John's Church, Oakland, from the rec- torship, which he has held for three and a half years, has provoked much comment in Episcopal circles and revived that spirit of controversy which, it was hoped, had been effectually settled by the Bishop of California in his convention address two years ago, in which he took the ground that reservation of the sacrament and other ritualistic practices were un- authorized by the church and contrary to its rubrics. The California diocese 1is, broadly speaking, low church, and the Jarge majority of churchmen hold to this view. There is, however, an element which encourages an advanced ritual, by which reservation, use of incense, confes- sion and other practices decidedly ad- vanced are essentlals, in churchly dis- cipline. . The Church of the Advent and Church of St. Mary’s the Virgin are the principal leaders in this class. To the low churchmen therefore the de- fection of Father Ray has been accepted as an indication of weakening in the ranks of the advanced churchmen and a sign that the great body of the Episcopal cles and laity are adverse to extremes either in ritual or practice. It is assumed by these that as St. John's, the oldest Episcopal ciurch in Alameda County, has failed to support its ritualistic clergy- man, consequently the low element of the parish has again asserted itself and the old order of things will be reasserted. FATHER RAY IS FRANK. Father Ray, in an inferview yesterday, was extremely frank in his explanation of the reasons which caused his resigna- tion. “It Is not true,” he said, “that St. John’s, as a parish, disapproves of the methods which have been Introduced since I became its rector. The parish is a unit. It attracts to its altar worshipers from Alameda, Berkeley and even from San Francisco, who hire pews and con- tribute to the support of the church, “1 deny that the worship of St. John is conducted on the extreme high church ritual. We have lights, we have acolytes, but we practice no reservation and use no incense. In fact, were I to follow the demands of the congregation of 8t. John's, 1 should have, not only incense and reser- vation, but reservation of the sacrament as well = “Moreover, we have now no ‘stations.’ The congregation asked for them, but I refrained from granting its desire. My departure is easily explained. Had I known the exact sentiment of this parish I would never have come to California. I have always been a high churchman. While I knew nothing as to St. John's or its congregation, I belleved that my posi- tion was perfectly understood. I did not look forward to the vindictive opposition with which I have met since I came to Oakland. Archdeacon Webber advised the congregation to call me, and, relying upon his judgment, I came. “Minnesota is a dreary climate, and bronchitis was my bane. Since I came to Oakland I have not been afflicted with that malady. I leave St. John's with re- gret. The congregation has kindly asked me to remain, but I have eoncluded to go. The reformer may stay too long. INNOVATIONS ABRUPT. “The innovations which I have intro- duced were perhaps too abrupt. My suc- cessor, whoever he may be, will be of the same school of churchmanship as myself. The congregation will have no other. Per- haps I may return. I go to the diocese of Fond du Lac, whose Bishop has called me, My successor will meet with no animosi- ties which I have met with, and perhaps there may be lasting peace.” Father Ray referred to the admonition ' Recommend oun corsets; no other agr- sets can give such woman's figure; no other corsets are so thoroughly caprice of style-creators. . are constantly adding new models; we've ust placed a shelf; several recent num- them are: & fida built to follow the natural lines of the figure and to accentuate nature’s own gra ‘whalebone, full gored and bias cut.
