The bride is aged but fifteen and the groom is not yet twenty-one. ; Miss von Pointowski had not finished her school course and although young Peet had frequently called upon her dur- ing the last year the relatives of neither of the young people did not suspect that there was anything more than children’s friendship between them. Early in December both left the city to visit relatives at widely distant points. After a time their letters ceased and their relatives could get no word from them. Finally the/news was received that they had gone to Oklahoma City | end were married by a Probate Judge. They are now in Newton, Kans.,, where | Peet is working in a mercantile estab- lishment. “Countess von Fnlmowskl was almost prostrated by the news. Such were her ravings that it was found necessary to restrain her. Running from the house she threw herself on a car track in front of a car which was stopped within a foot of her. The relatives have decided to | leave the youthful couple where they are and let Peet support his wife. —_———— RAILROAD WATCHMAN FIGHTS A GANG OF BOLD THIEVES | LOS ANGELES, Jan. 18—W. R.

VICTORIA, B. C., Jan. 18.—Advices have been received of an attempted rald made upon the seal rookeries of Copper Island, now guarded by Japanese patrofls, by a Japanese sealing schooner, with sev- eral American sealers in her crew.

News of the rald, which failed to achieve its object to loot the rookeries, js given in a letter from Hakodate, which says: “One of the schooners tried to raid Copper rookerfes, but could not make it stick.” The writer also stated that Dewett, though shot three times, jumped over- board and towed the boat with his com- rades on board out of range of the rifles of the shore gyards. The boat was rid- dled, but nome of the occupants was killed. The schooner Seifu Maru took seven- teen sea otter skins last season, some be- ing valued at upward of §1000 each.

PARK FAILS * TO SECURE DIVORCE Judge Sloss H Holds That Husband Was in the Right. Superior Judge Sloss has made it known that in his opinion John H. Park was fully within his rights when he took his wife, Effie L., to task regarding her con- duct, and that his actlons in no sense constituted cruelty as contempiated in the statutes providing for the issuance ¢ decrees of divorce on that ground. While making no comment as to his views Judge Sloss ordered yesterday that Mrs. Park's petition for a divorce be denied, and that judgment be entered for the husband. Mrs. Park charged that for a long pe- riod her husband had cruelly treated her, her ‘allegations of specific instances of such constituting a lengthy recital. In answer to her charges Park that he had reproved her frequently, but asserted that he only did so because she drank to excess at times apd was guilty of misconduct in associating with other men without his knowledge. Judge Sloss has upheld his position and Mrs. Park must content herself under the weight of adverse' judgment. Decrees of divorce were granted yes- terday to Ida from Edwin Rohrs, for fallure to provide; Rose from John C. Smith, for désertion, and B. F. from Mrs. L. B. Crouch, for infidelity. | “Suits for divorce were filed by George H. against Mary Lamb, for infidelity, ex- treme cruelty and desertion; Hattie A. against Harry C. Drummond, for cruelty; Arthur C. against Alice Lewis, for deser- tion, and Harry against Marion Hill, for desertion. Mrs. Dr. Harriet H. Hubbell. who is | now awaiting the action of the Supreme Court upon her appeal from the order of Judge Hebbard granting her husband, Dr. George R. Hubbell; a decree of di- | vorce bn the ground of eruelty, has re- newed her actlon for separate mainten- ance. The suit is most unusual and dem- | onstrates that both Mrs. Hubbell and her attorney have great hopes of reversing the judgment of the lower court in-the divorce case. et PROPERTY OWNERS OBJECT TO THE NEW OCEAN SHORE ROAD Residents of York and Hampshire Streets Say Thoroughfares Are Too Narrow for Car Tracks. Sixty-five property owners, living on York and Hanipshire streets, assem- bled at Maennerbund Hall, Potrero avenue and Twenty-fourth street, last night to protest against the Ocean Shore Railroad running its tracks on | the twe first-mentioned thoroughfares. The principal objection to the road is the narrowness of the streets through which the proposed tracks are to be laid. Supervisor J. F. Kelly was present, but refrained from offering his opinion. A committee, consisting of H. Truebe, H. Kelly, M. W. Moore, Joe Pisini and A. Carl, was appointed by Chairman H. Citch to frame resolutions of protest, which will, after being signed by the citizens, be forwarded to the Board of Supervisors. The Supervisors' Street Committee vesterday ordered the grading of Third street, between Channel and Berry, and made a personal inspection of the Third-street bridge to determine the necessity of the employment of care- takers of the Third-street bridge as recommended by the Board of Works. The committee decided to approve the recommendation /and also to make an inspection in company with the Works Commissioners at an early date of | streets that are deemed to be in need of repair. The protest of the Twelfth- street Improvement Club against the grant of a franchise for a car line on Twelfth street to the Ocean Shore Rail- way Company will be taken up by the dinance granting the franchise comes up for final passage. ————————— RDDBEWS DEMANDS ARE MET % ‘WITH POLICE WHISTLE CALL Jum.cllmflmw‘o!la- volver, Refuses to Give Up His | Money to a Joe John, a fim‘mw a dry-goods store at 1110 Stockton street, ntbemtolnrevolvarmmed\ame vn!ubl; o a native of his own late last night in money. lmefi of complying with thedemand of the Chinese robber J‘om: ‘blew a. mmu whistle and attracted ‘pouu‘ mbbir take up the work of the conference in the | admitted | board on March 4 next, when the or- WILL NOT LOSE THEIR DEPOSITS | Building Trades Council to | Reimburse Machinis Out | of Treasury of the Body | - e 2 A CHARTER ASKS FUI.
