Dempsey was convicted of conspiracy in connec- tion with Chinese substitution cases. was removed this afternoon from the Alameda County Jafl to the Receiving Hospital in a critical condition from heart disease. Dr. C. L. Tisdale, jail physician, said Dasha would not ! live forty-eight hours, so seriously had the prisoner been stricken. Dasha and Dempsey were taken to the County Jail last Friday to serve sentences of one year each. From the moment almost of his arrival was under the attention of the jail phy- sician. Last December, while he was awaliting trial, Dasha suffered a seri- ous attack of pneumonia. The effect on his heart was such as to leave that organ in a weakened condition. During his six days in the Alameda County Jail Dasha has slept hardly an hour. He grew worse so rapidly to-day that Dr. Tisdale notified Sheriff Bishop that the patient had only a short time to live. In view of the circumstances United States Marshal Shine was informed and that officer granted permission for Dasha’s removal to the hospital. The patient was so weak that he was taken in a carriage from the jail to the hos- | pital, which is only two blocks from the il “We did not want Dasha to die in ail,”” said Jailer Percy White to-night, and for that reason asked Marshal Shine for permission to send the man to the hospital. Dr. Tisdale declares that Dasha has barely two days to live.” Mrs. Dasha was called to-night and stayed for some time at her husband's bedside.

But the rival, who goes by the name of George A. Adams, is a man of brawn, and he was not willing to let a chance like that go by, so he contributed fuel to the feud by sending home a few biows himself. The upshot of it all was that the belliger- ents were arrested for disturbing the peace and brought before the Dogberry of Emeryville Township, who promptly released them on $§15 bail. As the story goes, Hadlen had prear- ranged to meet his wife after the pic- nic at Shell Mound last Sunday. Upon arriving at the grounds he espied his wife coming down a path with Adams. Hadlen and Adams were formerly riv- als for the hand of Mrs. Hadlen, who was a Miss Hoffman. It was a bitter matrimonial race, which Hadlen finally won, the wedding having been cele- brated four months ago. Meantime Adams married another girl, and it seemed all smooth sailing for the young people. But Hadlen's suspicions were aroused when he saw Adams with his wife. Mrs. Hadlen intervened, but could accom- plish nothing. “It was all a mistake,” said the Had- lens to-day at the home of the bride's mother, where they are staying. “It was all due to the old-time jealousy. We are at peace with Mr. Adams now and do not expect any more trouble.” Young Hadlen is a son of C. A. Had- len, a wealthy Berkelevan, and Adams was formerly a car conductor. ———— WORKMEN GIVE BANQUET TO GRAND OFFICERS Pacific and Oak Leafl Lod~es Entertain Distinguished Members of the Order at Dinner.

Mrs, Alice A. Dell, a member of a well-known family, was adjudged In- sane to-day and committed to the State Hospital at Stockton. For many vears her father, Dr. Aylett, was resi- dent physician there, and her husband, the late Charles L. Dell Jr., died there a few years ago.
