T SN, SHERMAN, The Music House Where Quality Reigns Supreme There is a quality point below which we do not go, be- low which it is unsafe to go. What looks like economy is sometimes the worst ex- travagance. It looks like economy sometimes to take part of the wool out of a piece of cloth and put cotton on the inside, but the trick will show in the wear. It looks like economy sometimes to buy a new piano on which there is an advertised saving in price of one-half or more, but with such a piano in your home a short while the trick will be exposed, although it may be too late for you to save yourself from loss. Better to deal only where such pianos are not handled and where such methods are not employed. 5 You know the house of Sherman, Clay & Co., and you know some, if not all, of the pianos they handle—such makes as Steinway, A. B. Chase, Estey, Emerson and others—but if you are not intimately acquainted with all of them an in- vestigation of pianos here will certainly prove profitable. Fail- ure to'examine them may cost you the difference between a good piano—one that is thoroughly reliable in every way—and one that is sure to prove worthless as a musical instrument. Surely it seems to us that if you buy before seeing pianos here you are sort of taking a leap in the dark—your knowl- cdge is not as complete as it could be. We have new pianos as low in price as $200, d from this to $250, $275, $200, $400 and vp. Monthly paynfents may he arranged when so desired, and with any pilano you select, exchange may be made for a new Steinway later on. This privilege can be extended to you by no other music house in Saw Frapcisco. since no other has the Steinway. SHERMAN, CLAY & CO.

CRAWFORD | When humane beholders cnided K. Kitane for compelling his equine wreck | to scale that portion of Pine street ly- ing between Kearny and Dupont, the little brown teamster impudently told them that they could best demonstrate their pity by relieving the beast of its burden and conveying the same to the top of the hill. “For,” he declared in sour gutturals, “I have undertaken to deliver this loaa of merchandise to Its honorable pur- chaser and my honorable word cannot be broken and my honorable face for- e ) | |ever shamed in the sight of all honor- | able persons. Therefore if you honor- able kickers wish to help this old and ihonorab]e horse you may release him ‘from the wagon and haul the vehicle | your honorable selves.” | “But,” argued the only protestant, whose indignation was not too pro- found to permit. indulgence in argu- ment, “even if the animal were freed from the load it would be cruelty to drive him up this steep. Indeed, it is cruelty to prolong his life” ' K. Kitane broke the.approving mur- mur evoked by the foregoing Sspeech. “If you have witnessed the progress of the aged and honorable horse this far up the hillside,” he sald, “you have also witnessed that it was not hurried by me. Indeed, you must have seen that every time the honorable quad- ruped faltered or exhibited other symp- |tom of imminent collapse I promptly | propped him up and allowed him to | rest until he was sufficiently recuper- ated to resume his task. Yet you in- | sinuate that my treatment of him is inhumane. You grieve me much.” So saying he pulled the props from the horse, shouted in Japanese a com- mand equivalent to the American whipster's “Giddap!” and again the |animal pressed its razor-like shoulder blades into its collar and shoved and pushed until ‘nobody would have been | surprised to see said collar *cut through by said blades. But not an inch of headway did the brute succeed in making, and finally the unpleasant | spectacle was brought to a finish by | the arrest of K. Kitane. “The hoss ain’t fit for crowbait,” said the complaining witness to Police Judge Conlan, “In the land of the chrysanthemum, | the geisha and the jinrikisha,” quoth | his Honor to the defendant. “it may | be permissible to work a dumb beast |to cruel excess, but in this less pic- turesque country there are laws for the prevention and punishment of that | kind of thing, and you have clearly violated one of them.

Harry Willetts was accused of having stolen thirteen calking drills from D. D. Butler, a plumber at the French Hospi- tal, and when the complainant had told his story, the defendant’s attorney sald to him, interrogatively, “You're a calker?” whereupon every one in Judge Conlan’s court laughed, to the evident bewilder- ment of the man of law. The pronounce- ment was that of guilty. . .. Inebriety, impecuniosity and love of red herring combined to prompt Frederick Warde to petty larceny. While fleeing with a “kit” of the preserved fish afore- | mentioned he was captured by Patrolman Barry, who subsequently discovered that the ‘plunder had been taken from the store of J. H.

I wish the gentlemen of the press here would make note of the fact that no blood relation- ship exists between Frederick Warde, the tragedian, and my unworthy self. In these days of stage degeneracy it would be nothing short of heinous crime to al- low unmerited reflection of infamy to fasten upon one of the last survivors of the grand old school of acting. Hence these words.” “You speak with warmth, sir,” re- sponded the bench, “and your desire shail, I am sure, be respected by the rep- resentatives of the Fourth Estale here assembled. But where did you acquire S your yearning for red herring, or is it inherent?” “In England, sir, my native land,” Mr. Warde replied, “the red herring as an edible is much more popular than in this country, and without prevarication I might say that my fondness for it is partly acquired and partly inherent, as my ancestors, I am sure, relished it keen- ly. But when we speak of the red har- ring—or rather the bloater—of England, we mention a delicacy that this country, with all its progressiveness and genius for Improvement, has never duplicated. The true Yarmouth bloater is as far su- perior to the American imitation of it as Bass’ bitter beer is ahead of North Beach steam.” “Yet the fish you are now accused of having stolen were hatched and cap- ver caught him fairly in the act at | Clay and Kearny streets. o s e “I wish ye'd let me go,” said Joseph Duffy, a tall, angular and cadaverous | visaged vagrant, to Judge Fritz, | “’cause I'm studyin’ t' take th’' clvil {servlce ’zamination f'r th’ 'plice force :an' 'spect t' be ’‘pinted. In coorse 'f ve send me up me chance 's ruined.” Every bluecoat in the courtroom- glared indignantly at Mr. Duffy, and Bailiff Con- ! lon eagerly whispered to the bench, ‘“He's an honest dollar in his life.” “I’I" disinclined to believe your story,” said the Judge to the defendant, *for your countenance informs me that you |are an opium slave, and opium slaves | have only one ambition—to obtain opium.” “Oh, all rightey,” retorted Mr. Duffy, apparently seeing that his false pre- tense had failed. “‘Call me a llar if you | like and send me up if ye want to, but I'd like t' tell ye right now that I'd ruther be a hophead that a bum p’iice- man any day.” He was given !Ix months. { oo When the pretty girl had narrated the grounds upon which she applied for a search warrant, Judge Cabaniss nodded his head sympathetically and, holding up his right hand for her emulation, ex- claimed, “Swear!"” “Sir-r-r?”” was the horrified response. “Swear!” his Honor repeated. “I'd—Ilke—to—have—you — understand— that—I—never—swore—in—my—life— and— | ain't—a-going—to—begin—now!” she said, deliberately, earnestly and blushinglx And she blushed more deeply when the Judge explained to her that he was not | conducting a school of profanity. * s s A jury in Judge Mogan’s court failed to decide whether John Curry did or-did not commit battery when he flogged J. | D. Mouser with a cane one morning last | September, opposite the Mouser dwelling, | 216 Twelfth avenue. The case will be re- set next Saturday. . G e Sadie Merrifield, accused of wayward- ness by her father, was released by Judge Conlan at the request of W. J. Watson, vice president of the Pacific Refining and Roofing Company, who sald he would see to it that the girl is properly taken care of. Mr. Watson is Mr. Merrifield's em- ployer, and it is understood \that he will send the ‘girl to her mother, who has remarried and llves In Seattle. . . John Bigelow and Michael J.

He will be séntenced to-day. .« o+ » Judge Mogan put off until to-day the combined instruction and amusement he hopes to derive from the hearing in ex- tenso of Mrs. Willlamson's complaint that her husband, Joe, described by her as “a ham and bacon man,” battered her head with a tin pall at 3 o'clock yester- day morning in their home at Eighth and Minna streets. ——e———— Dr. George R.

Strangely the gamut of time dulls not the memory of these strange incl- dents In the history of one of California's ploneer families and from recollection as keen as though they were occurrences of yesterday, they will again be recited in a court of law. It is the suit Instituted by Dr. Peter Kearney to recover $25,000 from Mrs. Teresa Bell, widow of Thomas Bell and administratrix of his estate, for medical services rendered her and her children that has recalled these incidents of many years ago. Dr. Kearney asserts that he is well entitled to the full sum he sues for; Mrs. Bell contends that while it is true that she is in his debt a small amount, his claim against her reaches no such proportion as he alleges and that she cannot be held liable for services ren- dered Marie and Fred Bell, for they have attained their majority and furthermore are not her children and have no rights she Is legally bound to respect. UNCOVERS FAMILY SCANDAL. All day yesterday Attorney Tauska, rep- resenting Dr. Kearney, endeavored to ad- mit in evidence the petition filed by Mrs. Bell for letters of administration upon the estate of her late husband. This pe- tition was filed shortly after his death and in it she asserted that Fred and Marie Bell, like the rest of her children, were the Jegitimate offspring of her mar- riage to Thomas Bell. It was many menths later, when, on the stand in Judge Coffey’s court resisting a demand of Fred and Marie for maintenance at her hands, she announced under oath that the claim- ants were not her children, and that hence their claims against her were with- out legal right. The_effort to get this petition into the record™ yesterday failed of result, how- ever, Judge Hunt holding that for the time the same was immaterial. Another effort to get it before the jury as legal evidence will be made to-day. The anxiety of the plaintiff to get this instru- ment befare the jury is due to the fact that a large part of Dr. Kearney's claim is based on treatment given Fred and Teresa Bell, especially the former, on the occasion of his serious injury re- ferred to. On the night of April 23, 189, Fred Bell accompanied a young woman to the Sut- ter street home, where both resided. Up three flights of stairs he walked with her and when on the upper landing, three storles high, they stopped and engaged in a discussion, the nature of which was never revealed: STRANGE STORY OF INJURY. Suddenly a cry of horror sounded through the bullding and young Bell plunged head foremost to the lower floor. For 107 hours he lay unconsclous, his skull, left arm, left leg and left ankle fractured. For months his life was des- paired of, but finally improvement came and he escaped the grave. Up to the time he attained his majority Dr. Kear- ney treated young Bell and for his ser- vices he demands reward. Mrs. Bell as- serts that whether he lived or died was no legal concern of hers, for under oath she hasg ‘repudiated him as her son and now rcfuses .to pay the bill that repre- sents the cost of saving his life. It is admitted by Dr. Kearney that he was fully compensated for services ren- dered the late Thomas Bell and these ser- vices have no part in the present sult, save to establish the captention of the physician that the account on which he sues is a running account and had been | Women ! 0o woman can be happy when her health is undermined.

THOMAS BELL'S WEIRD DEATH. One night Thomas Bell returned to his home and walked up the broad stairway leading to the gecond story. One room on that floor was occupled by himself and another by the late Mammy Pleas- ant, the aged and notorious negress that ruled the Bell household for a quarter of a century. A short time after Thomas Bell entered the house that night his un- conscious body was picked up at the base of the stairway to which he had plunged from the story above. How he came to fall none could tell. He never regained con- sclousness, expiring a few hours after he was found, his passing shrouded in the profoundest mystery. And other spectacular incidents in the life of Thomas Bell and his family will be related in this suit. Dr. Kearney will insist on the full payment of his claim and the facts as to the cause of every iliness he prescribed for and the nature of every wound he dressed In the house- hold of Bell will be told. It promises to weave & tale remarkable in the annals of medical jurisprudence. BIG CLOTHING FIRM IS FORCED TO THE WALL Creditors of Heller & Co. Fail to Effect Settlement and Attach Place. Attorney H. G. W. Dinkelspiel yester- day served two writs of attachment on the firm of Heller & Co., retail dealers In clothing at 1028 Market street, and the doors of the house were closed by the Sheriff, who put a keeper in charge. The attachments were sued out on as- signed claims held by S. Gabriel in the sums of $4847 69 and $12,258 27 for clothing sold to the concern by Hart, Schaffner & Marx and Hoffman & Rothchild. Dinkelsplel says that the attachments do not represent the entire liabilities of the firm, which he says will amount to at least $50,000. An attempt has been made by the creditors to effect a settlement without success and it was finally de- cided to force the flrm out of business. Heller & Co. only recently rented the big store in which, strange to say, two firms have been compelled to quit busi- ness owing to lack of patronage. The firm named has been in possession of the place for a month or two, but only opened up for business yesterday. The store had not been opened an hour when the ing of the creditors had been held. —————————— FAIL TO ENTER RETURNS ON DUPLICATE TALLY LISTS ‘Iectlo- Officers in Two Precincts Are " Cited to Appear Before Commis- . sion and Explain Negligence.
