The best I got was a lesson in hair pulling.” Such was the plaint of Mrs. Sadie Swift before Judge Cabaniss yesterday. Mrs. Hoff keeps an establishment at 694 Sutter street, where Psyche knots are made while you wait and pompz- dours are built to order. To Mrs. Hoff came Mrs. Swift, praying to be taught how to drive home a hair pin without penetrating the brain of the patient. Mrs. Hoff agreed to initiate the seeker after knowledge. She gave Mrs. Swift a few lessons, which that lady claims were “just bluffs Mrs. Swift still overheated her curling irons and the bangs constructed looked like the ferry clock after an earthquake. Mrs. Swift demanded that the $20 be returned. Mrs. Hoff declined. Then the wrath of Mrs. Swift was rousad. She burst into the hairdressing parlors of Mrs. Hoff like an army of Cossacks. Vehemently the irate pupil denounced the teacher. In the next room were several patrons whose locks were in various stages of manipulation. Sud- denly their hair stood on end so that several quarts of oil were needed to sooth the frightened tresses into shape. Mrs. Hoff laid aside her curling irons and grasped her unruly pupil by the hair. With some vigorous vanks she pulled Mrs. Swift's locks into shape- | lessness. For this act the pupil the teacher arrested on a charge. Mrs. Swift admitted having abused the curling iron artist to the best of had { her ability. “Muvs. Swift, you | hasty,” said Judge Cabani he | battery charge is dismissed.” The ar- tist and the novice exchanged glares Timothy Lynch is a pianist at Scan- dinavian Hall. Tim was double crossed in love, which fact was the indirept cause of his being brought before Judge Cabaniss on a charge of petty larceny. Miss May Butts, who had promised to marry him, wedded another. Tim had bought her a $38 trousseau. That not make any difference to the fickle May. She flitted and took the trous- seau with her. For a while Tim was inconsolable. Then he pulled himself together and hummed the old song, “I want dem presents back.” He r ht fall in love with a less fickle damsel who would fit the trousseau. So Tim entered the apartment of his false love and took The girl had him arrested for petty lar » “The trousseau must be returned to lady,” said Judge Cabaniss. “When you make a present it's for keeps.” So if Tim secures another be- trothed he must procure another trous- seau. Charles Schrader, who has been for . | some time an inmate of a private asy- lum, was found guilty of disturbing the battery | did | AND HER PUPIL Hoff, Who Ties Psyche , Who Would Learn How to peace by Judge Mogan. Several other charges may be made against him. Schrader is alleged to have, entered the butcher shop conducted by his brother and George Kern at 335 Point Lobos avenue on Thursday and de- manded some money which he claimed was due him. He was given $170. He returned and demanded more. This time he got $100. In the evening Charles Schrader re- turned, so his brother and Kern main- tained, and took $20 from the till. He threatened to kill anybody who inter- fered. When his sister, who happened to be in the store, attempted to dis- suade him he struck her. Schrader will not be sentenced until his brother and Kern have decided what they -will do about the other charges. The case of J. C. Raymond, charged with disturbing the peace of Edward L. Coryell, a real estate dealer, brought a flock of witnesses into Judge Mogan's court. Raymond and Coryell live in adjoining flats at 730-32 Valencia street. Raymond has been posting signs ridi- culing Coryell on a nearby fence, and in explanation he claims that Mrs. Coryell drops sweepings into the meat safe of the Raymond family. Judge Mogan decided that Raymond was the aggressor in the neighborly strife. The | | court advised that either one of the parties to the row move to another neighborhood. . o % T. Tenabi, a Japanese, appeared to be | in a trance in Judge Mogan's court. His eves were.glassy and he yawned | the * indolence of ‘“the Queen of { Bavaria's” friend who did a pipe-hit- |ting stunt at the Orpheum. He was found in Union square about noon! Thursday. With his coat rolled up for a pillow, he was slumbering peacefully on the grass. Dreams of the tea gar- dens on the terraced bluffs, wistaria in bloom, the pink and white cherry blos- | soms and little doll-like geishas in vari- | colored kimonas flitted before him. The | | tinkling of the samisen and the sound | of pleasant laughter rang in his ear: Tenabi was back across the waste ¢ back in his own pretty toy A policeman struck the Jap's shoe soles with a heavy club. The rain of blows only half-roused Tenabi. | He hardly seemed to hear the order of | the policeman. He was taken to the | police station in the same half-trance. | | Whether it was the use of opium that caused it is not known. Judge Mogan | ordered Tenabi to be held twenty-four | hours to give him a chance to recover. | His glassy eyes still seemed to be gaz- | ing at pictures of Nippon when he was | taken from the courtroom. s e Nz Fook, a Chinaman, was convicted | of petty larceny before Judge Mogan. | He stole $20 from a Japanese in a gam- bling-house. | Tom Murphy, who was caught work- | ing the old wedding-ring-to-sell graft, was found guilty of vagrancy. | DUNPHY DIVORCE SUIT DISMISSED Two Sensational Complaints of Cruelty Will Not Be! Prosecuted by the Wife —_— Another reconciliation has been ef- fected between Edith M. Dunphy and her husband, James C. Dunphy, the well known son of the millionaire cattleman. A resumption of the here- tofore short but stormy married life is indicated In the notice filed yesterday by Attorneys Sullivan & Sullivan for the dismissal of Mrs. Dunphy’s suit for divorce. Mrs. Dunphy first brought the action on January 22 last, a year after their marriage. Later the two made up, but the acts of cruelty charged in the first complaint are said to have been renewed and on August 23 Mrs. Dunphy filed a supplemental com- plaint reciting mistreatment that had forced her to take refuge with friends. She also declared that she was to be- come a mother, but that Dunphy had denied the paternity of the expected child. In her suit the wife alleged that Dunphy was worth $200,000 and she asked for $1000 attorney’s fees and $250 a month alimony. Margaret J. l\l’(‘Namara and Nicholas J. McNamara, proprietor: of the drug store, 401 McAllister street, have re- pented their differences and yesterday gave consent to the setting aside of the interlocutory decree of divorce granted to the wife by Judge Troutt on June 17. Mrs. McNamara charged her husband with various acts of cruelty and he, in a cross-complaint, charged her with intemperance. He resisted the payment of alimony with evidence that his wife had an income of $450 a month roperty. ‘“X:n‘fe )% }};lxflns, who is suing for divorce from Theodore S. Higgins, pro- prietor of the Hotel Inverness and den- tist, yesterday filed an affidavit that she is almost penniless, asking the court to order him to pay her $250 a month and $500 for attorney’s fees. She says that he has received large sums from the hotel business and earns $500 a month in the practice of his profes- sion. Hattie B. Young has sued for the an- nulment of her marriage with Charles J. Young, a Tonopah mining man, to Whom she was married in March, 1903, not knowing that he had another wife living from whom he had not been di- ed. vosr‘t;“s for divorce were filed by Helen W. Dougherty against Edward J. Dougherty, habitual intemperance; Kittie M. Clancy against Robert K. Clancy, desertion and neglect; Mrs. A. Cook against A. Cook, neglect; Mal- vina Schell against Bradford T. Schell, intemperance and cruelty; Laura B. against George H. Weeks, neglect; Clara M. Wadsworth against Joseph A. Wadsworth, Intemperance and cruelty; Willlam A. Wakerley against Frances A. Wakerley, deser- tion. Mr. Wakerley is bookkeeper at the Palace Hotel. His wife left him September 1, 1899. K dismissal was filed in the divorce sult of Estelle Kohn against Phillip Kohn. ‘Wickersham Evidence In. The hearing of evidence before Judge Seawell in the Wickersham will contest was concluded vesterday and the case continued to November 14 for argument. Attorney Franecis J. Heney yesterday made Judge Thomas J. Geary his own witness. It was an- other effort to get into evidence the alleged conversations between Heney — and Geary relating to a conference in J. C. Campbell’'s office regarding the necessity of having Lydia Wickersham make a will cutting her son Frank out in order to force Frank to compro- mise. Judge Seawell again sustained the objections to the questions, as he did later when Heney took the stand and offered to testify to what Geary had told him. Judge Geary was ask- ed about certain papers purporting to | show that the property of I. G. Wick- ersham was separate property. He | said that he had shown an old will of | Wickersham’s to Attorney Porter | Ashe, in which the statement regard- | ing separate property was made. It was indicated that the purpose of stating that I. G. Wickersham's prop- erty was separate was to make Frank believe his mother’s share in his fath- er's estate would be only $150,000 in- stead of $400,000. ——————— Files Contract of Sale. The contract of sale by Theresa Alice Oelrichs of almost all her realty holdings in San Francisco to a syndicate composed of local capi- talists was filed yesterday. She ac- knowledges receipt of $150,000 on ac- count of the purchase price of $2,600,- | 000. Rudolph Spreckels acts as the agent of the syndicate in the transac- tion. ADVERTISEMENTS.

A. Kratz, whom he held to an- swer on a charge of felony embezzle- | ment, continues to puzzle the officials of the District Attorney’s and County | Clerk’'s offices. Judge Fritz might be | able to explain the mystery, but no one | seems to know where he can be found. | Judge Dunne has urged an official in- | vestigation. When the Kratz case was called in| Judge Dunne's court yesterday Attor- | ney Frank J. Murphy, who represents | the defendant, said he had received a telegram from V. Kratz, Los An- geles, father of the defeadant, that he would send affidavits by mail as to| the death by drowning of the defend- ant at Long Beach on September 15. The Judge thought it would be more timely to make an officlal investigation as to the disappearance of the bond. It might be a well devised plan in con- junction with other phases of the case to defeat the ends of justice. Murphy agreed that an investigation would be in order. If the bond had disappeared it showed a very lax method in dealing with such important documents. He would do everything in his power to elucidate the mystery. The Judge said he had no reflection to make upon Murphy. He trusted it would no develop that any officlal of the city and county had been retained by the defendant along with his army of attorneys. The Ballinger case, he said, was an illustration of how the administration of justice was hampered in this city. Assistant District Attorney Whiting announced that he had requested Cap- tain Martin and Sheriff Curtis to inves- tigate the reported death of the defend- ant, but neither had anything to report as yet. Regarding the bond, he thought | an ‘official investigation should be made, but he was of the opinion that the bond 1 bad been misplaced and would turn up. The sureties could be sued whether the bond was found or not. He under- stood that the defendant’'s sister, Mrs. R. M. White; his father, V. Kratz, and Attorney Newhouse were the sureties. He suggested that the matter go over until Monday. This was agreed to. | A motion to release W. M. Kratz on | bail was denied by the Judge. He was tried on the same charge, convicted and | sentenced to serve five years in San Quentin. He has appealed to the Su- preme Court and wants his liberty pending the result of the appeal. —_—e—————— Union Iron Works to Be Sold.
