He says that from the time | of his marriage to Mrs. Straub at San | Jose on July 15 last up to September 0, | when she left him, he was a most misera- | ble man and all because of the presence | in his home of the parents of his wife. | Straub alleges that the day following | his marriage Mrs. Straub brought her | father and mother to their house. He did not object to the presence of the old peo- { ple, he says, for a week or so, but when | they showed no signs of cuttting their | visit short he made a few dccided re- | marks about a man’s home being his own and about the treatment that should be accorded intruders. Still they remained, { he says, and finally his wife began neg- | lecting his interests in order to cater to | the wants of her relatives. He says that she would prepare fine meals for them | and never invite him to join them, even | going so far as to compel him to prepare his own meals. When he objected she | would tell him to mind his own business, | and finally, on September 30, they left him to his own devices. Before going, however, says Straub, they drove his two children by a former marriage into the street, carted away all his furniture and left him, forlorn and miserable, to hunt | up his little ones and do the best he could with them in an empty house. Antoinette Amanda Thumler was grant- | ed a aivorce for desertion from William marriage to Thumler at Alameda, Jan- | uary 29, 1900, he embezzled the funds of his employer, Alexander Forbes, and ran away. - Judge Graham also granted a di- vorce to Vivian P. Petitt from Alfred Pet- itt for neglact, and Nellle L. Fronk from George Fronk for cruelty. Judge Hebbard annulled the marriage of W. J. Reed to Selina F. Reed on com- | plaint of Reed. Mrs. Reed is insane. He also granted Horace Wilber Mann a di- vorce from Carlotta Mann for desertion. Judge Troutt granted Jessie A. Gunn a | divorce from Rvis Gunn for neglect and cruelty, and Judge Seawell severed the ties uniting Murray E. Taylor to George W. Taylor on the ground of desertion. Elected President by Manufacturers. She Is Selected to Make the Show at St. Louis a Success. —_— The redwood lumber manufacturers of California have done a graceful deed.l They are men, with one exception. The | one person of the other sex who is en- | gaged In getting California redwood into | the markets of the world 1s Mrs. Abble BE. Krebs. She is the prestdent of the Casper Lumber Company and in that ca- pacity has shown executive and business ability that have won the respect of all her competitors in the business world. Regently the redwood lumber manu- | facturers have been serfously considering | the advisabllity of making a display of | redwood in commercial and also in other | forms at the St. Louis Exposition. The | sugar pine lumber men of ths State have | made plans, by which they hope to aston- | ish all spectators by the size of the lum- | | ber to be displayed. The sugar pine men, | for instance, will have an enormous | trunk of a sugar pine tree, sawed into planks and then put back into tree shape, | with one tall plank standing on end| among its fellows to catch the eyes of | the multitudes. Then there are other | sugar pine exhibits that have been pre- viously described in this paper. The redwood lumber manufacturers have as great a pride in thelr cutput as the sugar pine men have in theirs. To have sugar pine alone exhibited would be | unfortunate. In casting about to have a commiftee headed by some one com- | petent to Insure success for the exhibit | to be made up for St. Louls the redwood | lumber manufacturers have appointed | Mrs. Krebs. Mrs. Krebs is a handsome, gray-haired | Thumler by Judge Graham. She was also | lady, who appreciates the compliment | given permission to resume her maiden | that has been bestowed upon Ler and | | name, McClure. Three weeks after her | also realizes that the business ability of women has been recognized. “I will go on with the work,” said Mrs. Krebs yesterday, ‘‘as soon as I know | whether a sufficient amount of money will | be raised by the redwood lumber manu- | facturers to insure success. 1 will know all about that within a week probably I think that about $50 will be necessary to meet the cost of preparing an adequate redwood exhibit.” GREGORY TEA AMONG SEASON’S LEADING EVENTS| | "On complaint of Nellie E.

Nicola Crudo and his nephew, Joseph Crudo, appeared before Police Judge Con- lan yesterday morning. After Detective H. C. Reynolds had sworn to the com- plaint charging them with the murder of Prospero Migalo at Green and Kearny streets on Sunday, they were instructed and arraigned. Nicola Jooked very seri- ous, but his nephew was smiling all the time and did not seem to be in the last impressed with the gravity of the charge. Attorney Spinetti, on behalf of Joseph, sald he was ready to proceed, but as the defendants were jointly charged, Assistant District Attorney Weller asked for a continuance for a week. This was opposed by Spinett! and the Judge com: promised by ordering the case continued till' Monday. Meantime the Inquest on the body of Migalo will be held by the Coroner. ——————— An Important Trade Mark Decision The Uniteq States Circuft Court of Appeals has recently handed down a decree which makes it unlawful to use the name of a NATURAL product as a designation for an artificial manufactured product.

Thackeray in Chicago and enjoined him from using the word ‘‘Hunyadl” on his artificial Hunyadi Geyza water which he had been manufacturing from Lake Michigan water doctored with chemicals in imitation of the Imported Hungarian Natural Mineral water, Hunyadi Janos. This decision should act as a protection to the public against unscrupulous imitators. —_—————————— Concert at Presidio.

Continuing he remarked: ““The City of Mexico has passed the 350,- 000 mark in the matter of population, and now has more than 5000 Americans. All the better class speak English, which is being taught in the schools, and with its modern utllities, such as a new sewer system, electric lighting, street car lines and good schools, the city is rapidly | forging ahead. ““The Mexican Central is operating 3000 miles of road, a regular trunk system, and if T do say it the rodd is to be com- pared favorably with any of the Western lines in this country, in so far as grades, roadbed and depot bulldings are con- cerned.” Mr. Ward has been connected with the express company in Mexico for twenty- one years. He is a native of Northern California and has come here for pleas- ure. —————————— STEVENSON’S MEMORY WILL BE HONORED Admirers of Dead Author to Decorate Monument and Gather at An- nual Banquet.

He had been employed in Montana in that capacity by a horseman named Sperry.

Green some time ago pronounced the water as being | {of a very pure quality, and his figures | bear him out. | The sample from Lake Elinor showed but 1.4 parts of total solids in 100,000, and a fixed residue of 1.0. That from the Tu- olumne River gave 3 parts of total solids | and a fixed residue of 2.6. Spring Valley | water, which Grunsky says is a good water, shows 25.6 total solids in a sample | taken November 7 last from Crystal Springs and a fixed residue of 19.2, while that from Lake San Andreas gives 18.8 | total solids and a fixed residue of 148. | The Board of Works adopted a map showing the district to be assessed for | changes of grades on California street be- tween Twenty-seventh and Thirty-first | avenues, and set November 25 as the date for hearing protests against the same. The hoard disapproved of the plans for | a hall to be erected on Market street, near Sixteenth, by the Market Street and Eurcka Valley Improvement Company, as they do not comply with the building | ordinance. The board recommended that grades be established on Gordon street. City Engirieer Grunsky filed a diagram of the surveys in order that the lines of Twenty-seventh avenue South, between Rallroad and Thornton avenues, may be determined, and showing the obstructions thereon. In preparing the diagram it has | been assumed that Twenty-seventh ave- nue has been opened on the lines of the Bay View homestead survey. ——e— Hocks Closing Up the Gap.
