Ignoring parental objection and out- witting relatives who sought to re- strain them, young Leon 8. Clayburgh and Miss Eva E. Wireburgh, both of San Francisco, eloped to this city to- day and were quietly married by a Justice of the Peace. ‘While the cere- mony was being performed in the Su- pervisors’ chambers in the City Hall, two uncles of the bride, who came from San Francisco for the purpose of From time immemorial it has been popularly supposed that a woman who could refrain from talking for five ! minutes at a time was a creature of great rarity. It remains for a San Francisco man to shatter this bellef, for if the divorce complaint of Henry W. von Kapff contains allegations that are true, therels a woman in this city who can refrain from talking for five days at a time. The woman is his wife, Isabella G. von Kapff, and her silence is the cause §§fil“;"‘i”‘“ 1,,,,3:‘;‘%',9“'2;:‘)'0:“%“?;‘Z of the plaintiff’s unhapflplin:ss. tlndhls ’ i . 7 i V.

His mental sufferings are intense, he says, and he asks the court to sever the bonds that bind him to the alleged cause of his misery. As another reason for divorce Von Kapft charges that his spouse has de- gserted him. He says that in February of this year she packed up the furni- ture of the rooms he had fitted up for her, even to the pillows and bed clothes, and “silently stole away.” The marriage of the Von Kapffs occurred | less than a year ago. no obstacle in the way of their plans. The groom is the son of Simon Clay- burgh, with the firm of Poly, Hilborn & Co., butchers, and has resided at 1916 Jackson reet, San Francisco. The bride is the daughter of E.

LARGE LUMBER DEAL EFFECTED les Nelson Company uys Out the Puget Sound Yards at Cost of $150,000 RESULT FAR REACHING Property Includes Most Valu- able Water Front Hold-| ings on Oakland Harbor The Charles Nelson Lumber Com- | pany of San Francisco has secured a foothold in Oakland by the purchase of the Puget Sound Lumber Company. | The deal involves the transfer of about | 5,000,000 feet of lumber and interests valued at $150,000. The sale is consid- ered an important one, as the Puget Sound Lumber Company is one of the iargest concerns on the coast, while by the additions of the yards in Oak- land and Alameda the Charles Nelson Company has increased its already large holdings. The purchase only includes the yards and the stock of lumber they contain. The Nelson company has its own ves- sels with its connections up and down the coast, and with its increased facil- ities for storing and handling lumber expects to become the largest concern of its kind on the Pacific Coast. The vessels of the Puget Sound Lumber Company belong to the stockholders of | the company individually, and they will make such disposition as seems | advantageous. —_——— Brings Gardiner City to Port. The barkentine Gardiner City, which | was dismasted and otherwise seriously damaged May 2 at Redondo during a! heavy northwester, arrived here yes- terday in tow of the steam schooner Noyo. The Gardiner City was alongside the wharf at the southern port when the storm broke, and before the gale blew itself out wind and waves had jammed the barkentine underneath the wharf, snapping off the vessel's three masts, smashing her deckhouses and | wrecking her bulwarks. The Noyo was seventy-four hours bringing the bark-| to entine from San Pedro. A call was/ made at Port Harford for water and | coal. —————————— A ready-made religion is sure to be a misfit.

Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. «DEAR Mns. PINEHmAM:— Your medicine is indeed an ideal woman's medicine, and by far the best I know to restore lost health and strength. I suffered misery for several years, being troubled with menorrhagia. My back ached, I hulr{»e-ring-down ins and frequent headaches. I would often ‘wake from restful sleep, and" in such pain that I suffered for hours before 1 could go to sleep again. I dreaded the ong nights as much as the weary days. I consulted two different physicians, hoping to get relief, bu# finding that their medicine did not seem to cure me, I tried your Vegetable Compound on the recommendation of a friend from the East who was visiting me. “Iam glad t I followed her advice, for every ache and pain is gone, and not only this, but my general health is much improved. I have a fine appetite and have L{lmed in flesh. My earnest advice to suffering women is t away all other medicines and take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege= table Compound.”— Miss NxLrie Horuzs, 540 No. Division St., Buffalo, N. Y.

Prvxmay : —*“ It always gives me pleasure to find an article of real value and_ unquestioned merit. I have found Lydia Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound well calculated to relieve and cure the various troubles arising from irregulari~ ties and menstrual pains. “ Much suffering could be spared if we only paid more attention to proper living and diet, but as long as women do not do this, your Vegetable Compound has come to the front as a true friend in need. I have been very pleased indeed with the relief it has brought me. I find that I have perfect health now, and that my mind is also more clear and active since I used your Vege- table Compound. It has been of great benefit to me, and I gladly recommend it. Very sincerely yours, Miss IrENE CRosBY, 313 t Charlton St., East Savannah, Ga.” Remember that every woman is cordially invited to write to Mrs. Pinkham if there is anything about her case or sympioms she does not understand.
