THE SAN FRAN CISCO CALL, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1904.° ADVERTISEMENTS. i Miss - »\«nes Mxl]er, of C}uca speaks to young’ women -about dangers of the Menstrual Period — how to avoid pain and suffering and remove the cause by using Lydia E Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. “To invxo Wouzmx:—1I suffered for six years with dysmenor- rhea (painful periods), 8o musch so that I dreaded every month, as I w 1t meant three or four days of intense pain.

Swan, the painter, for refusal to pay his former wife, Hannah Swan, $560 alimony, the sign artist was at liberty to wield his brush until yester- day, when he was taken into the Sheriff’s custody. Through his attor- ney, William H. Schooler, he imme- diately gave notice that he would move in Judge Hebbard's court at 10 o'clock next Saturday morning for dis- charge from imprisonment. When Judge Kerrigan made his order on Oc- tober 12, 1903, Swan was five years and more than $10,000 behind on his alimony dues to the wife, who got a divorce from him in October, 1894, on the ground of cruelty. She only asked for $350 on account and says Swan was able to pay the sum out of his lucrative painting business. contended that he was without funds and made the plea that his second | wife had provided the funds for the sign shop and owned it, while he was | only her employe. The former Mrs. Swan intends to press her claim. This morning Judge Troutt will be called upon to determine a novel ques- tion arising out of the complexities of the interlocutory divorce decree law. On November 5, 1908, Lois Alice Ma- thews was granted an interlocutory decree of divorce from Willlam A. Mathews on the ground of extreme | cruelty and she was awarded $30 a | month alimony and the custody of their two children. The year has eiapsed and a final decree might have | been entered, but in the meantime the | husband, who is a bookkeeper for the Santa Fe, has applied for permission to reopen the case and file an amend- ed answer. His attorney is Samuel M. Shortridge. He charges now that on | various occasions during the year Mrs. Mathews has been unduly inti- mate with one Willlam Knox and others unnamed. On that account Mathews thinks that he is entitled to the final decree. Dora Trugden’s third effort to get a | @tvorce from Daniel Trugden was suc- cessful, he having defaulted. Judge Troutt granted the decree yesterday. Trugden was a schoolboy in one of the rural towns and his marriage with Dora was a forced one. He at once deserted the wife. The court allowed her $20 a month alimony and custody of the child. A divorce was granted by Graham to Amelia Fox from Fred L. | Fox for cruelty and negelect. Suits for divorce were filled by Mary { Brown against Fred L. Brown, neglect; Emile Frankard against| Maria Frankard, infidelity with Theo— dore Estudillo; Martha L. Asproscho against Z.

Twenty thousand dollars is the es- timated damage of six alleged libelous words printed on November 8 in La Voce del Popolo, the local Italian | newspaper published by Carlo Pe- drett! & Sons. The plaintiffs in the suit filed yesterday are G. Almagia and B. Palrigi, publishers of another Ital- fan paper and passenger agents for against | railroad and steamship companies, do- ing business at Montgomery ave- nue. The six Ital words complain- ed of, rendered into English, mean “the newspaper that receives some- thing from the Government to act as spy.” The plaintiffs say that the phrase signifies that they are subsi- dized by the Itallan Government to act ag sples against the citizens of Italy and the United States. Swan | Judge | \ISTERY 4B0UT WOMAN'S DEATH Mrs. Pramberg of Black Dia- mond Dies of a Bullet Wound in the Abdomen HER HUSBAND ABSENT Dr. Gregory Takes Charge of the Leaden Missile and Coroner’s Office Wants It Mystery has been thrown about the death of Mrs. Natalle Pramberg in St. Luke's Hospital yesterday morning from a bullet wound said to have been accidentally inflicted at her home in Black Diamond, Contra Costa County, last Wednesday morning. The woman was removed to the hospital on | Wednesday night, escorted by Dr. Gregory and a man who represented that he was the patient’s husband. She stated that she was removing a coat from a bed and that a Colt’s revolver of 4l-caliber fell out of one of the pockets to the floor and was dis- charged, the bullet entering her abdo- men. Deputy Coroner Fennell reported that he had experienced much difficulty in obtaining a coherent statement of the affair. He was informed at the hospital that Mrs. Pramberg had de- nied that the man who came with her was her husband. Nobody appeared to know his name and the patient dled and carried the secret of the case with her. When Deputy Sheriff Fennell asked for the bullet that had been ex- tracted from the woman’s body he was informed that Dr. Gregory had taken it away with him. Two women, one of whom represent- ed herself to be a sister of Mrs. Pram berg’s husband, called upon Deputy Coroner McCormick yesterday. This sister refused to give her name or ad- dress, but said that the man who had taken Mrs. Pramberg to the hospital with Dr. Gregory was not Mr. Pram- berg, but a man whom she knew. She declined, however, to mention his name. She said that Mr. Pramberg wag not at home at the time the accident occurred, but was at work near Stock- | ton. | Later in the day Sheriff Veals of | Contra Costa County telephoned to the | Coroner that the man who accompa- nied Mrs. Pramberg to St. Luke’s Hos- pital was Thomas Rogers, Town Mar- | shal of Black Diamond. Rogers is now | under arrest in charge of Sheriff Veale. | Rogers told the Sheriff that he was | 1ying on the bed in Mrs. Pramberg’s | house, while she was seated at a table | near by, writing a letter. In arising ‘frum the bed the revolver fell out of his pocket and was accidentally dis- charged. Dr. Bacigalupi, autopsy surgeon, after an examination of the corpse last evening, reported his belief that | the shooting was accidental. —_—— Sharp and Decisive, The leading editorial in this week's News Letter is a plea for the protection of the judiciary. The News Letter hoids | that the murderer in intent is as guilty | as the murderer in fact, and calls for | special legislation to make this a legal principle. The studénts of the Art Association, | who are given to the practice of hasing. are very properly excoriated by the edi- | tor. There is an article on the “Famine of Irish” which makes good reading: | A]The card craze is discussed by “Lady | Algy. | The “Town Crier” snaps the whip ot | scorn and sarcasm at existing evils, and | the “Looker On” is more than usually | interesting. The beau monde of “Blingum” is writ- ten up in an interesting skit called “Seen at the Pony Meet.” “Vagary,” a sketch written by Elean- ore F. Lewys, has an imaginative and elusive charm about it that holds the reader. There is the usual full report of auto- mobile news by the “Auto Crank,” and the insurance editor stirs up the animals by suggesting the appointment of a State fire marshal. Altogether this week's News Letter is 2 most interesting issue. ————— Two Samplers Suspended, Customs Collector Stratton yester- day suspended B. H. McNefl for five days without pay, and A. J. R. Poul- gen for ten days without pay for re- fusing to open a case of goods at the branch appralsers’ store when re- quested. The men are samplers and they refused to take the cover off a package because such work was done by openers and packers. The request bad been made of them in order to expedite business. JURY 10 TRY NONNIER CASE Twelve Men Easily Found to Hear Reputed Son’s Con- test of Winemaker’s Will | | | | QUESTIONS HIS RIGHT | Attorney Collins Wants the Court to Determine Rela- tionship Before the Trial A jury was drawn in Judge Graham's court yesterday for the trial of the con- test by George Monnier Jr. of the will of his reputed father, George Monnier, a retired winemaker, who left a fortune of $170,000. The hearing will begin on Monday morning and will doubtless last for several days. Four of the panel were excused by the contestant’s attorneys, Matt Sullivan and Theodore J. Roche. The twelve re- maining were accepted by George D. Collins, attorney for the rroponent, without examination. The jurors are Philip Kinzel, 3799 Washington stree: Karl H.

Monnier Sr. left all of his property| to his wife, Anna, or Hannah Monnier, to the exclusion of George Monnier Jr., whom he mentioned in the testament as his son.
