As usual each Spring, Kaufmann’s is first to display the real dis- tinctive styles of the Eastern centers, and we ask you to visit our store and see the vast array of shoe styles and shapes from the shapely and graceful oxford to the heavy mannish street shoe—from a dainty sandal for a child to the stout school shoe for the hardy youngster. Our windows can only show you a few—come in, see and examine for yourself; you do not have to purchase to be welcome. Good Shoes BOYD'S WiDow MAKES DEFENSE | | Relict of Capitalist De- nounces Margaret Hollow- bush’s Claim as False AL BN ANSWERS AER CHARGE Avers That Eastern Plain-: tifft Waived Her Alleged Rights for Sum of $3500 The millions of the late Alexander | Boyd promise to furnish ground for one | of the most sensational legal battles | ever fought in the local courts. It will be a contest between two elderly women, Jean McGregor Boyd of this city, who for more than forty years was known and recognized as the wlfe; of the capitalist, and Margaret Hollow- bush of Fennsylvania, who claims that she is the widow of the deceased mil- | Honaire. Judging by the answer flled yester- |day by Mrs. Boyd to the petition of | Mrs. Hollowbush for distribution to her f half, or a widow's share, of the mil- | lions left by Boyd, the contest will be waged along lines that will show that astern claimant during Boyd's visited him and for a small 00—admitted that her rights in e estate of the millionaire were un- certain, and signed an agreement waiv- | ing any claims she might have against his estate. The appearance of Mrs. Hollowbush in the Boyd litigation last year cre- | ated a surprise, for it laid bare a fam- | ily skeleton that had been concealed almost half a century. As the widow of Alexander Boyd she asked that a widow’s share of the estate of Boyd be distributed to her, thus declaring that Jean McGregor, who for sforty years in this city was known and rec- | | ognized as the capitalist’s wife, was not | entitled to his name. | BOYD GETS DIVORCE. [ Mrs. Hollowbush claimed that in the. | early fifties she had married Boyd, and, though admitting that he had secured | a divorce from her at Sacramento in November, 1857, claimed still to be his wife on the ground that the legal sep- | aration had been obtained by Boyd by | fraudulent means and that therefore | he had no right to give his name to another. She said nothing, however, | in her sensational petition of her own | legal right to the name of Hollowbush, | though admitting that she had, like | Boyd, contracted a second marriage. | | Jean McGregor Boyd, the California | widow, in her answer laid bare what | | she claims to be a deliberate plot on | the part of a woman with absolutely | no rights to ‘enrich herself at the ex- | pense of the Boyd estate. In her an- | swer she charges that' Mrs. Hollow- | bush once thought so little -of her chance to establish her claim to the | name of Boyd that for the small sum | of $3500 she surrendered her claim and | signed a document gannouncing that she was not the wife of the capltalist ‘and for the sum named declared that she waived all her claims. In regard to the early romance of her husband, Mrs. Boyd says that prior | to the arrival of Boyd in this State he married the woman who is now known as Mrs, Hollowbush. They came to California in the early fifties and | in 1857, after several years of unhappy life, Boyd, who was then engaged In accumulating the millions that are now | the cause of the strife between the two women, commenced an action for di- | vorce. In Sacramento, on November 16, 1857, says Mrs. Boyd, the bonds | uniting them were severed. In sup- | port of her denial of the charge that | the decree was illegally and fraudu- | lently obtained, Mrs. Boyd further | | avers that her husband's first wife, just | | sixteen days after she became free, be- came the wife of one Mr. Hollowbush. It was in January, 1862, five years after the divorce, says Mrs. Boyd, that she became the wife of Boyd. She bore him two children, who are still alive. WAIVED ALL RIGHTS. Mrs. Boyd evidently knew of the ex- istence of Boyd’s first wife, for she re- lates that she and her husband were visited by Mrs. Hollowbush in 1897. She does not state the object of the visit, but avers that before Mrs. Hollowbush left the home of her former husband she was richer by $3500. She obtained the money from the capitalist upon the condition that she.admit that she was not his wife; that she was the wife of Hollowbush, and that the divorce obtained by Boyd in 1857 was a legal and valid decree of court. Alexander Boyd, who was a member of the ploneer real estate firm of Boyd & Davis, died about three years ago, leaving an estate worth, it is estimated, $6,000,000. Prior to his death he deeded most of his wealth to Jean McGregor Boyd, his wife, and in his will left the, remainder to her and their two sons. —_———— ‘When Ladies See Bargains Rain Does Not Keep Them Back. For the last six weeks we have had a the crowds of people daily attended the GREAT FURNITURE SALE at PAT- TOSIEN'S, corner Sixteenth and Mis- | sion streets. ‘'This shows that rain will not stop the ladies from shopping when they know they can get ‘“real” bargains.

There {s positive assurance that more strangers will visit San Francisco on that occasion than ever congregated within the city before. This applies to the people of the Pacific slope as well as to those coming from east of the Rockies. The arrangements for re- ceiving and landing passengers are al- most perfect. All transportation com- panies leading into California have se- cured the amplest accommodation pos- sible to meet the extraordinary demand. Committees will meet the visitors some distance up the road, escort them to the depot, where detachments of 8ir Knights, afoot and mounted, will re- ceive them upon arrival and escort them, with bands of music and ban- ners, to their hotels and headquarters. Carriages will be provided for ladies and for aged men. Special street cars will also be at the depot for the use of parties of Templars that may pre- fer to ride to their hotels in one party. The cars will carry passengers to a certain point only. For the ladies’ re- ception committee three parlors have been secured at the Palace Hotel. Golden Gate Park will excel anything the Eastern or even the ‘Western people have ever seen to show the visitors what can be done by artisans aided and favored by the exceptional cli- matic conditions prevalling in San Francisco all the year.

He decides that the warrants are illegal in that they are a violation of the constitutional provision | inserted in every bill of rights, which is recognized as one of the strongest pro- tests against the ancient system of giv-| ing great power to irresponsible parties. | He compares them to the famous let- | tres de cachet, the use of which was one of the causes that led to the French Revolution. Judge Murasky's opinion is as follows: This is an action for a writ of review or certiorari to review and annul the lssuance of certain warrants which do not name or de- scribe the persons to be arrested. That such warrants are invalid admits of no question. Like the lettres de cachet of unsavory fame, they might be used to fit any person_at the caprice of the officer charged with thelr execution. The fact that such an abuse of them is improbable is no justification for their issuance. The complainant who swore to the complaints upon which the war- rants were based must have alleged the com- mission of an offense by some one and that person should be able to describe If mot to name. The matter is placed beyond dispute, however, by the provisions of the constitu- tion upon the subject, a provision Inserted in every bill of rights and always regarded as one of the strongest protests against the an- clent system of irresponsible power evidenced by roving commissioners and lettres de cachet. Section 19—The right of the people to be secure in thelr persons, houses, papers and effects against unreasonable seizures and searchers, sball not be violated, and no war- rant shail issue but on probable cause, sup- ported by oath or affirmation particularly de- | scribinz the olace to be searched and persons | and things to be seized. ! This writ must fail, however, for the reason | that petitioner is not a party beneficially in- | terested, as it 18 provided in the Code he must | be to_ entitle him to certiorari. Upon this | ground the demurrer to the petition is sus- tained. Although Judge Murasky decided that | the warrants are illegal, Jean Pon, who applied for the writ of review, did not | ohtain the relief he sought for because | he was not one of the parties interested. | For this reason Judge Murasky sus- | tained the demurrer of the City Attor- ney to the petition for the writ, though | giving an opinion sustaining the con-l tention of Pon’s ottorney. —_——— Trapper’s Oll cures rheumatism and neuralgia.
