On April 28, the| complaint -~ declares, he stole money | from the company, and under the name of E. L. Frye bought tickets for Chi- | cago for himself and a woman he rep- resented as’ his wife. It is alleged that he is now living with- the woman, se” name, according to -the com- plaint, is Mrs. E. L. Frye. The deserted woman says he received $350 a month salary, and she demands $100 monthly the court giving her an absolute decrée | of divorce from her. husband after he ! had been dead three weeks, especially | as neither’ she nor the attorney who | represented the husband in the original divorce proceedings requested or con- | sented that ‘the order be made. * Mrs. | Grace got.an .interlocutory decree of | divorce from Joseph H. Grace, a dray-! man, on May 20, 1903, but by an inad- | | vertence the decree was never entered. | On September 12 last, three weeks after { Grace's death, Leon- Samuels, repre- | senting Grace’s sister and mother, had a decree of absolute divorce entered nunc pro tunc as of May 27,1903. Mrs. Grace seeks to ‘have it set aside in order that she*may be considered as Grace’s widow in the settlement of his | estate. Judge Hebbard yesterday took her metion under consideration. Arthur -L. Piper, secretary of the Piper-Aden-Goodall Company, testified yesterday that he has no money, no property and only $80 a month salary, and is, therefore, unable to pay the $625 due to his wife as alimony. Judge Sloss gave him a week-to see if he could better his finances. > Judge - Hebbard yesterday annulled the marriage of Mayme E. Fissette and John Pederson, which took place at San | Jose, March 17, 1902. At that time Pederson was. not divorced from his wife Otelia, whom he married in Hono- lulu in 1884. Nellie R. Henry sued Clarence A. Henry for divorce on the ground of cruelty. Judge Troutt granted a di- vorce to Annie Perry from Willlam Perry for desertion. —_————— LOOKING FOR ASSAILANT | OF A LITTLE SCHOOLGIRL Police Searching for Man Who Grabbed Hold of Dorothy Allen on Way From School, The police are looking for the mis- creant that attacked Dorothy Allen, a 10-year-old schoolgirl, at Lyon stree. and Pacific avenue Wednesday after- noon. Little Dorothy lives with her parents at 3315 Clay street. She attends the Grant Primary School on Pacific | avenue, between Broderick and Baker | streets. She left the school for her home on Wednesday afternoon about 3 o’clock. She passed through a vacant lot on the southeast corner of Lyon street and sidewalk a man said to her: “There’s a | little girl lost in the lot and I want you | to go back and see if you know her.” Dorothy told him that the girl could | come to her, as she would not go back. The man seized her by the arm and | began to drag her into the lot. The Pacific avenue, and as she reached the |] 1 along Lyon street and across Pacific avenue in the direction of the Presidio, | She describes the man as about 5 feet 7 inches tall, medium build, light hair, reddish mustache, 25 to 30 years of age and wore a dark coat and vest, light striped trousers and black derby hat.

The Secret Service Knows SOUGHT INFORMATION | Epistles Said to Contrailii Much of Value in Fixing i s el No more sweethearts of H. L. Eca da Silva have beén discovered, but there are still rumors of others. The tell-| _tale -correspondence now in the hands | of the Government secret service men | refers here and there to two mysterious | women, but they will have no bearin;: on the plans ‘of the prosecution. -The case for the United Statés is- almost ready to present, and Miss Aginita | Burbank is_the only woman who will be a conspicuous figure in future de-| velopments. ‘ i Miss Burbank is a quiet, unassuming | | young lady, and is not thought to be in ‘ any way accountable for Da Silva's | | shortcomings, yet she will undoubtedly | be'an important witness In identifying | the letters that passed between her and | | the ex-interpreter. These epistles are | | said to throw considerable light upon | | the methods adopted by Da Silva tog | secure inside information through the {unsuspectmg stenographer. | Hypnotism is the fanciful side of the | Da Silva 'stories. The employes of the { Chinese bureau do not think that the| | strange man who dotes on-femininity | could hypnotize anything more sus-| ceptible than a simple-minded Chinese | who desires to cross the border iito/ the United States, and knows that it costs money to do it. There are several batches of the Da | Stlva-Burbank letters which, 1t 1s| thought, will assist in cempleting the | chain of evidence against the accused ima.n. The prosecution will not make | these letters public until it finds a| ! proper place for them in the testimony. ! In the mantime Miss Burbank has been | instructed to have nothing to say re-| | garding the case. She talks to inter-| | viewers of superficial things only. | THOSE MYSTERIOUS LETTERS. I There is a mild current of comment | about the Federal building that tends! toward the discussion of the communi- | | cations and whispers of the letters that | were written to and by Da Silva when | he was in Shanghai and Canton. Let- | ters subsequently received by Da Silva |in San Francisco breathe of love, and | are said to show that the man was try- | ing to gain information from Miss Bur- | | bank. He did not succeed in finding . out much of value, but it would be im- | portant to show that he endeavored to' | become possessed of official secrets. . | To return to.the Da Silva game of | hearts, there is one of his conquests who has certainly refused to be hyp- notized. Furthermore, she is not cer- tain that his musieal exploits are born of the sort of harmony that drives dull care away and invokes 4 spirit of adoration. During the execution of the “Voice of Love,” she says, cupid did | not come from behind the score and | | fill a feminine heart with love-tipped arrows from which had been extracted no modicum of sting. This particular young lady in question is Miss Carmen Navarrete, who resides at 928 Broad- way, where she makes light of reports | of her deep affection for Da Silva and looks upon him and the world in gen- eral as a great joke, “I repeat that I once liked Da Silva, but if he is in love with. another | woman, that settles it with me. Life | | is too short to bother much over men anyway,” she sald by way of assur- ance that Svengali had not glared into | her big brown eyes. “I'm all for my- self when it comes to love matches. Da Silva is out of my life and 1 am not worrying.” The inroads on Da Silva’s affections said to have been made by Miss Bur- bank do not worry Miss Carmen in the least. She says that Da Silva loves | music and so does she, but that he Is | | pot in it with a real nice electric piano | when ‘it comes to ragtime. Guitars, too, have their place, but not when its foggy at North Beach. Love is only & passing whim and that fades like the | colors on a Fourth of July flag when it, like momentary affection, is under | the weather. Miss Carmen may have been one of the young ladies that Da Silva had on his visiting list, but one thing is cer- tain, she knows little if anything about | the man's business relations with the Government. So to the wings with this dainty young girl who has played a specialty in the half-breed interpre- ter’s drama of hearts and passports. A GAME OF LOVE. seems to have been a little more seri- ous contest. Da Silva appears to have held the winning hand. What Miss Burbank knows will be of value to the | secret service men. If she can be in- duced to believe that all has not been exactly fair in Da Silva’s professed love for her, she may tell everything. An important bit of news that trav- eled the corridors yesterday was that Miss Burbank is supposed to have in- formation that will make it unneces- sary for the Government officials to go to much trouble in looking up evidence in the Far East to convict their pris- oner. o Upon a woman’s whims and ca- prices rest important developments in the case. The query is, will she remain truc to the man who once said he wor- shipcd her, or will she say “Revenge is sweet,” and tell all she knows when called upon to testify? —_———————— ‘Wants Indictment Quashed. - The members of the Grand Jury were examined in Judge Lawlor's court yesterday on a motion made by attorney Frank J.

SINGLE CURVE 1§ PROPOSED ‘United Railroads Will Con- sider Plan of Mayor for Post and Kearny Streets A conference was held yesterday by Commissioner ‘Schniitz of the Public ‘Works Board, Tirey L. Ford, attorney for the United Railroads, and Mayor Schmitz in the Mayor’s office relative to the .removal of the curve at Post and Kearny streets by the board named and the maintenanc- of track curves at other points in alleged viola- tion of a city ordinance. Replying to Ford's explanation that the spur track was originally lald and long used under a franchise granted in 1879, Commissioner Schmitz called at: tention to the ordinance prohibiting the construction of a spur track within whereas in this case the curve was only six feet away from the sidewalk. Ford con- tended that the ordinance was passed | one year after the grant of franchise and, therefore, could not bé applied. “Even if your franchise gives you the power to put down the curve,” said the Commissioner, “we have the right un- der the general police regulations to femove it if it is proved to be a men- ace to life and limb. We deem the public safety paramount to any rights the railroad company may possess.” “As a way out of the difficulty,” said Mayor Schmitz, “I would suggest that a single curved track only be operated at this corner instead of two as laid by the company. -This weuld comply with’ the ordinance as to distance from the curb and would permit :of car trhMC." L “I am not competent te judge of ths mechanical points involved,” answeréd Ford, “but will submit the matter to our engineers, for & report.” - - 2 It was then ‘agreed to hold anothe: conference next Wednesday at 3 p. ni, when a solution of the problem wiil arrived at: 3 Ty : “Many othér curves viglate the or- | dinance,” sald Commissioner Schmitz, “‘and it is our’'intention to remove:them all if no gufficient reason can: be ad- variced for their maintenafice.”. ® .: At Mayor Schmitz's suggestion. it was decided not to take.action oh .other curves until the company outlines ‘its intentions next Wednesday. . —ee————— A reward.of fame and monéy .awalts. him who supplies pur needs with, something . better— as “Old Gilt Edge Whiskey.” Wichmar, gen &.Co., 20-31:Battery, S: F., proprl ————— Play. by’ Dramatic- Soclety. . = “Turned Up,” a farce in three. acts, will be presented at Native Sons” Hall next Tuesday night by the California Dramatic Society; The menibers of the society have ‘been working iong | and earnestly rehearsing for the én- tertainment and hope to make it a big success, both -financially. and so- cially. - 3 e e ¢ Catchy style with a little snap; our printing; Edward Knowles Company, 24 Second-st.-* — e HEALDSBURG, Sept. 30.—The Healdsburg High School Alumni Aisoctation held its an- nual meeting this evening and élected the fol: lowing - officers: President, Charles Haigh; vice president, Russel Galloway; treasurer, Fred Barnes; secretary, Miss Florence Barnes.
