And no one got mad, either. The play was written by Miss Ruth Comfort Mitchell to celebrate the sixth | birthday of the club, and the parts | were cleverly taken by Mrs. Arthur Cornwall, Miss Susanne Patch, Miss Laura Musto, Mrs. Horace Coffin, Mrs. W. L Marion, Mrs. Emil Pohli, Miss Emilie Kalisher'and Miss Rodney Ken- drick. Now, of that bright galaxy of stars | Mrs. Cornwall as the clinging, confid- ing wife, and Miss Susanne Patch as the little but mighty husband ‘“made good""—as the actors say—in a way that made d the hearts of those who were lucky encugh to be there. The programme opened with an ad- dress of the founders by Mrs. J. J. Scoville, after which the play that has | been practiced in star chamber session | for weeks became a thing of publicity. M Patch, whose tiny frame fitted deftly into a boy's frock coat, assumed | ing dignity by the annexation of a pair of Dundreary whiskers and a pompous wig; he was loved “horri- bly” (as the smart set say) by his wife, | who W nated by Mrs. Corn- | wall. s.

She loved Alpheus déarly and leaned on him fig- uratively—yes, and literally. Poor Al- pheus! Alvheus didn't believe in suf- frage; neither did she, because he didn’t. So proud of Alpheus was his Miner- van mate that she loved to hear him recite “that dainty little poem that Geor; Bromley renders so touchingly, ‘Jingle, Jangle, When the Cows Come Home.”” Mrs. Rodney Kendrick was the lady with a bill to get through. Her bill was a measure for the protection of larks. She had interviews with several solons of Sacramento in regard to it, and among them Senator Shortridge decl: ht in favor of the meas- ure liked “larks and the bill became law, reading ‘“Farme: are henceforth compelled to plant such | with larks.” | ple of the satires| misguided efforts of the club, and they augh from those they . | over, the members ad- Jjourned lu the tea room, where dainty were spread, and in quaffs of r thir than obtain in men clubs many merry toasts were given. .

K. Clarke Is Preparing to Show That Sweet Pea Girl Thought He WasSenator’sSon WOMEN CONFESS e A Testimony Will Be Given at Divoree Trial to Substantiate the Charge of Conspiracy MISTAKE Sensational developments are prom- ised in the divorce suit of E. K. Clarke, who has instituted proceedings to an- widely known as the “Sweet Pea GIrl,” in Oakland several weeks ago. Since his action was filed against his wife Clarke has had detec- tives employed in gathering evi- dence that will support the claim set | forth in his suit that his marriage was the result of a conspiracy in which a number of persons, including the pro- ! prietress and female denizens of the house in which he first met Mrs. Bower, were involved. It is claimed by those that are in- terested in Clarke’s side of the divorce troduced at the hearing of the case to show that the women companions of Mrs. Bower supposed that the plaintifft was a son of United States Senator Clark and that they proceeded with | their plot to marry him to the defend- ant with the idea that it would be a for Mrs. Bower but those who helped her along with her matr{monial project. According to the stories of Clarke's friends, the first intimation that the | women received of the fact that he was not a member ¢# the Senator's family was when the news of the mar- riage was published the following morning and gave the residence and names of the relatives of the husband. These facts, it is said. have already been admitted by several of the women of the house in which the plot is said | to have originated and it is expected | that these women will so testify when they are called as witnesses. The son of Senator Clark, for whom the women mistook E. K. Clarke, was at the time and still is in Montana. Mrs. E. K. Clarke is expected to file her answer to her husband’s suit in a few days. Yesterday it wes stated by one of the husband’s friends that Clarke is determir d to prosecute the to the end and will not entertain any proposition toward a compromise. At the same time it was admitted that the wife had made no attempt to effect a compromise. — e The Old Humpbacks Are not to be compared to our new pat- flat opening blank books, which cost no more than the old style and are infinitely better.

SPOUSE TAKES RIFLE T0 BED Marguerite Mackintosh Proves Husband Treated Her Cruelly and Is Granted a Divoree AEE S PR e THREATENS TO KILL HERi PSR Temper of Engineer of Ferry- boat San Jose Too Strenuous for His Wife's Comfort Marguerite Mackintosh was granted a divorce from Charles J. Mackintosh in Judge Hebbard's court yesterday. The ground on which the degree was Mrs. Mackintosh was formerly a Miss Hecht of San Jose. In May, 1902, the young woman tcok passage on a steamer from this port for Nome, where she was to join her mother. While aboard the steamcr she fell in love with Mackintosh, who was then chief engineer. The couple got off the ship at Seattle and were married. Four | months later Mrs. Mackintosh left her husband in this city and went to live with her mother. She claimed that he had treated her cruelly. He had an ungcvernable temper, she said, and in- sisted on sleeping with a loaded rifle under his pillow, with which on sev- eral occasions he threatened to kill her. Maeackintosh made several ineffectual at- tempts to get his wife to return to him by threatening to kill her, but was unsuccessful. When the suit for divorce was filed he made known his conclusion to fight the case vigorcusly and said that he would never pay any alimony. The case was finally settled out of court by Mackintosh paying his wife $1000 and the decree tvas obtained without any contest on his part. Macintosh is at present chief engineer of the ferry- | boat San Jose. Interlocutory degrees were granted to the following named yesterday: Charles A. Serin from Louise Serin for infidel- | ity, James H. Lynden from Florence M. Lynden for desertion, Alfred H. Coates from Emma C. Coates for de- sertion, Lillian A. Harron from Ralph ' . Harron for failure to provide, Ame- lia McMinn from Joseph McMinn for desertion. Suits for divorce were flled yesterday as follows: Theresa A. Hoppe against Charles E. Hoppe for cruelty, Leah Lyons against Alexander Lyons for failure to provide, Cecil M. Troy against Charles P. Troy for failure to provide, Frank A.

REGAL SHOES. f we could make you realize the plain truth about Regal shoes, we would have to stop advertising and build a row of new factories. The trouble is that you have been paying $5, $6 $8 or $14 a pair for shoes for so long that you can’t believe the best shoes possible to make out of leather can be made, and are made, and sold for $3.50. That'’s the plain, bald fact, and Regal shoes will prove it to yofi if you give them a chance. When we say “best,” we mean best in style, in fit, in leather, in workmanship, in wear.

Now we have 60 stores in all the principal cities, and there are over 200,000 people on our mail order books. That’s a good endorsement of what we say. Why don’t we sell all the shoes in the world?
