Accuses Him of Transferring Valuable Property With- out Sanction. T 8. Peculiar business methods to say the & warrant in Police Judge Fritz's court yesterday, when Charles Alpers, a sup- posed capitalist, charged a putative real estate dealer named F. H. Hausman with felony. He specified the charge under the a bill collector. The value of the prop- erty is said to be $20,000. According to Alpers’ statement, Haus- clerk in August, 1902, when a deed was executed from Charles W. Steere to Hausman for pleces of property in the city and county of San Francisco as follows: Lot on Lib- erty street: lot on the corner of Fran- cisco and Franklin streets; lot on Sixth | avenue in the Bernal Rancho tract; lot on Valencia street, near Twenty-fifth; lot | on the corner of Twenty-fourth and Ellen | streets with adjoining property; land In | University Mound tract. TRYING TO EVADE DEBTORS. All this property Alpers clalms to have | been the owner of by virtue of a deed from Hausman, dated in August, 190 Previous to that time, he says, it was in the name of Charles W. Steere, and he naively admits that its retention in Steere’'s name since 1553 was due to the | fact that he was trying to evade his debtors. He savs that the property was | transferred from Steere to Hausman, who | was then his confidential clerk, because he wished to avoid his creditors. The | Zeed was made because his creditors had | ascertained that Steere was not the owner | of the property and were endeavoring to have the property attached for debts of | Alpers. | He says that he had the transfer made | on the advice of his then attorney, Harry V. Morehouse, whose name appears as | a witness to the deed. At the same time, Alpers clalms a deed was executed from | Hausman to him, which was witnessed by | Morehouse. Neither deed was recorded, | aithough he claims they were acknowl- | edged on the same d2y by Hanry 8. Foote now United S s District Judge in In dian Territory. Morehouse, he say: a4 witness to bown deeds. More signature as a_witness w the deed from Steere to Hau n was ed on record on May 9 of the pre vear.

Alpers claims that records of Foote's notarial office will show that the transfer of the property from Hausman to him was made, but said that so far his at- torney had failed to find the book which would confirm his claim. He says, how ever, that when the trial comes off he will | produce the records to show his owner- | ship of the property and the fact ‘hat‘ 1 Hausman conveyed it to Rauer after he had deeded it to Alpers. = The warrant for Hausman's arrest was not served yesterday, although he was prepared to give bail. Several months ago he was arrested on complaint of Alpers for alleged felony embezzlement in con- | nection with the funds of the National | Fertilizer Company. The charge was @is- missed by Police Judge Cabaniss. e — Glamour of the Stage.

AN OLD DIARY SHOWS GROWTH OF NEW YORK | TLand That Sold For Songs Before '50 Now Worth Fabulous Sums, The just-completed and rather preten- tious marble-front building at the south- west corner of Broadway and Great Jones of a Mayor of New Yor! Hone, who built the house in 1837. viously Be had lived at Broadway, di- rectly opposite City Hall Park, and on March 6, 183, he recorded in his diary (as recently published) this interesting memo- randum: “I have this day sold my house in which I live, 235 Broadway, to Elijah Boardman to be converted into shops below and the upper part to form part of the American Hotel for $60,00. [ bought this property on the 8th of March, 1821. 1 gave Jona- than Smith $25.000 for it. I make a large profit; but the rage for speculation is at present so high that it will prove an ex- cellent parcha the Phoenix Insurance Company, two or three doors above Warren street, was sold this day at aucgon for $40,000. The build- ing is worth litlle or nothing and the lot is only 25x106; mine Is 37x120, and is very compared with the other. I am to retain possession until the 15th of Octo- ber, unless 1 cnoose to give it up before. all leave this delightful house with ings of deep regret. The splendid rooms, the fine situation, my snug library, well arranged books, handsome pictures; what will become of them? I have turned myself out of doors; but $60,000 1s a great dcal of money.” About three weeks later Mr. Hone made this additional entry in the diary: “I bought this day from Samuel Ward for $15,000 the lot corner of Broadway and Great Jones street, twenty feet wide and one hundred and thirty feet deep. 1t is my intention to build a house on this lot for my residence. after I shall be turned out of the house I now occupy.” He proceeded to put up that house at once and moved into it 1837, living there until his death in 1851. Later it was occu- pied by various business concerns, and latest by the East River Bank up to the time of its purchase and razing early last year.—New York Commercial. —_— e The Messagero asserts that the latest society sport in the Italian capltal is cat- hunting over the roofs of houses during the night.

In | conformity to this ancient usage the ‘hristian church employed the ring in the | ceremony of marriage (which was first | adopted by the Greek church) as a symbol {of the authority which the husband gave to his wife over his household, and of the earthiy goods with which he thus en- dowed -her, Urder the Roman Consuls, manufactured of iron, and worn ¢ soldiers, and that upon the third of the left hand, hence denominated the ring finger. Increasing wealth soon superseded an ornament of this.inferior metal by introducing rings of more costly materials, and those made of gold were afterward so very general that it is re- lated after the celebrated battle of Can- nae Hannibal sent a bushel of them to the Senators at Carthage, of which he had despoiled the slain and prisoners. Under the Emperors, the common sol- diers, and even freedmen, wore gold rings, although they were originally prohibited unless personally given by the Emperor. The petitions soliciting this privilege be- came, however, so numerous that Jus- tinian was tired of thelr importunity, and ultimately permitted all who thought proper to bestow them. Rings have very long taken a conspicuous part as love tokens. Of all the sorts of rings which have frequently been dispatched as mes- sengers of love that kind of double-hooped one (half of which was often worn by the lover, the.other half by his “soul's delight™) called the gemmow, or grimmal ting, stands pre-eminent. Upward of twenty instances might be quoted from Shakespeare mentioning the use of this kind of ring.—London Mirror.

But it pays to run through the pockets and feel the lining. If a man who lets his wife sell his cast-off clothes only knew what got lost in the lining of his coat son.etimes he wouldn't feel so easy about parting with them. A man sticks import- ant letters in his inside coat pocket and some day when he wants them they are not there. He hunts and fumes around, up. Then he thinks they must have been torn up or burned, and he forgets the matter. *But important letters don’t go that way generally, They turn up sometimes to ac- cuse a man. They find their way be- tween the lining of the coat or vest, and we fellows get hold of them. If I wanted to go into the blackmailing business I could make plenty of money.
