UMIFORM ROLES ARE ACCEPTED On Selling - Contract at End of Long Discussion | For the first time in the history of real estate dealings In San Francisco a uniform selling contract form has been adopted by the large houses. Properties valued collectively at hun- dreds of millions of dollars have. a few years, been offered sale and have been dais- posed of without any uniform prao- tice among the realty brokers. Finally the brokers found the situnation to be intolerable. Parties having properties for sale found no general system in the er of agreements. The San Francisco Real Estate Board took the matter up soon after its or- ganization, a little more than one year ago, and it has figured at intervals in the discussions of the board of direct- ors, headed by President Josiah N. Howell, ever since. .| pal houses have forms that were presented to sellers for signature neir properties were placed In the market. These agreements or con- tracts have served as the basis of the for final form that was adopted yesterday. | Lawyers have been consulted and com- have struggled with a prob- ncerns allke buyers, sellers during a serles of pro- mittees tors of the Real Estate Exchange present at a meeting in the rooms e board yesterday afternoon, and he provisions were considered care- , amended after discussion and hally adopted.

It was slesta hour in Hoffman's “wine joint” on lower Sacramento street, when Fred Nansen, occaslonal mariner, awoke to find his hat missing, and the broken English expletives immediately voiced by him aroused from slumber the other chair-warmers, of whom | there were many. “Ay ban lose my hat,” Mr. Nansen explained to the expostulating bartend- er, “an Ay ban tankan aye tafe tuk ate.” But an Inspection of all the head- - gear then present resulted in Mr. Nan- sen’s further discomfiture. and he was volubly cursing the unknown thief, | when Charles Nelson, desultory long- | shoreman, entered the barroom, ordered a schooner of beer. took the vessel in hand, sauntered to the lunch counter and began nibbling. Ere he had falrly started to refresh his inner man, how- ever, a hat was plucked from his head it and fled, with Mr. Nelson in close pursuit. The chase was brought to a finish on Kearny street, near Clay, by Patrolman Holmeg taking both Mr. Nansen and Mr. Nelson in his embrace. As they Insisted on contending for pos- session of the hat the officer booked them for peace disturbance. “At ban may hat,” sald Mr. Nelson to Police Judge Shortall, “an Ay pay fafty cents fore ate on Washanton strate” “Ay bot ate sacand-hand on Oak- {1and,” was Mr. Nansen's plea. An examination of the hat disclosed the label of a Market-street dealer, which disclosure neither sustained nor refuted the story of either claimant When the Judge sugsested that the gentlemen draw straws to decide own- | ership the suggestion was spurned by both. His Honor proposed that each | of them try on the hat and that he whose head it most closely fitted should be permitted to retain it with- out further protest from the other, and the proposal was accepted by Mr. Nel- son and rejected by Mr. Nansen, where- upon the court ordered that the test be | made. Mr. Nansen's head proved to be which fitted Mr. Nelson's head as if it had been made for him, so to Mr. Nelson it was awarded. The decision was fortunate for Mr. Nelson in more ways than one, for his scalp was bare, while Mr. Nansen's | hair crop was heavy enough to prevent | him catching cold until he procured | another” head cover. . . After she had taken several doses of the concoction prescribed for and | sold ‘to her by Tom She Bin, whose “herb and vegetable sanitarium” is on Kearny street, Mrs, Orzulll became so 111 that in alarm she summoned a phy- sician of her own nationality, Dr. Angelo Moretti, who at once applied antidotes and then had Tom She Bin arrested for practicing medicine with- out license. When the case was called before Judge Mogan it was stated that Mrs. Orzullf’s condition was such as to prevent her attendance, so a continu- ance was granted till next Saturday, when the defense will probably de- mand a jury trial. The medicine supplied to Mrs. Orzulll by Tom She Bin was contained in two | small vidls covered with red paper bearing Chinese printed characters, and its Ingredients will be ascertained by analysis. Its odor savors of pepper- mint. N, e, . Frank Burnett, arrested for drunken- ness on Third street, near Mission, dis- played to Judge Cabaniss a large patch of court plaster on his head and averred that it covered a wound which nine | stitches were necessary to close. “Are you quite certain as to ..e num- ber of stitches?” his Honor inquired. “Be careful, now, for I have decided to give you one month’s imprisonment for every stitch.” ““Well, no, I'm not sure there are nine,” was Mr. Burnett's cautious answer. And | he finally reduced the number of stitches | to two. “All right—sixty days,” nouncement. “1 wonder if- you'd a-discharged me if I hadn’t a-mentioned the stitches at all?’ aid Mr. Burrett. ‘I wonder,” rejoired the Judge. . s . was the pro- “He sent me violets and this note,” by Mr. Nansen. who instantly donned | about two sizes smaller than the hat, | see the remarkably fine styles und qualities.

Peters, glassblower, | residing at % Fourteenth street, and she had applied to the court to compel him | to restore tp her certain articles she had left in his domicile when she removed to 118 Jones street. “I was keeping house for him,” she ontinued, “wken his married daughter, | Mrs. Walter Angelo, came from Penn- | sylvania about five weeks ago .and made me 80 uncomfortable that I had to leave, Mr. Peters wanted to marry me, but I didn’t love him enough to consent, and when his daughter came he insisted that 1 stay right there and help her in the #ouse, but she didn't like me, and I thought it was better for us all that I should move. But when I went to get my things Mrs. Angelo refused to let me have them and sald I owed her for board, although she knows very well I don’t owe her or anybody else a single cent.” “But why didn’t Mr. Peters protect your interests?” the Judge ingenuously inquired. g i 'Oh, I guess he got spiteful when he found I wouldn't marry him,” was the answer. “But he sent me violets and that note,” she reiterated. \ Ag neither Mr. Peters nor Mrs. Angelo appeared to dispute Mrs. Powers’ claim, she was awarded the property, constst- ing of “two ladles Dresses, ladies Under- ware, ten Towels, one sheat, two Pillow covers, one Gas Stove and with hose, one TW0 MEN COMPETE FOR HAT Disputed Ownership of Headgear Leads to Animated Contention Before a Police Magistrate.

How- ever, If her practice were indulged in at reasonable time of day -and behind closed doors and windows, and If the keys were not thumped with a vigor uncalled for by the score, the vicinage might not be disturbed to such extent as to violate the letter or spirit of the peace ordinance. Mrs. Callahan prom- ised to comply with the conditions men- tioned by his Honor, who then released her on a thirty-day parole. + e e Marfas Thooradian, native of Greece and by occupation an {tinerant vender of popcorn and peanuts, labored under the delusion that his possession of a peddler's license enabled him to dis- | turb the quiet of neighborhoeds, and he expressed genuine surprise - witen Judge Cabaniss waved his license aside and fined him $10 for baving Ignored certain requests to move on. which had been addressed to him by Mr. Mc- Cann of the drapery firm of McCann, | Belcher & Allen. g “I paya da lice ta sella da popcorn and da peanots,” Mr. Thooradian ex- postulated, baring his beautiful teeth and shaking his shapely head with such violence as to set his mass of black curly hair all aflutter. ! “But paying the license does not | exempt you from punishment for frac- | turing the peace ordinance,” was his Honor’s response. Mr. McCann, who resides with his Y %3 family at Bush and Mason streets, tes- | tified that it was not the nightly pres- | ence of the defendant's glass-covered wagon in front of-his dwelling that an- noyed him, but that the interminable screaming of a steam whistle attached to the roasting machine within the wagon severely jarred the nerves of his wife, who was ill. His repeated re- quests that the defendant either move on his wagon or shut off the whistle | were met by a defiant flourishing~of the license to peddle, so police ald was finally summoned. - . While several feminine visitors to the Chutes were playing “box ball,” the same being a paraphrased game of bowling, Peter Fillippelli, aged 21 and | teamster by occupation, gave them un- solicited advice as to.how they should roll the spheres and by other means aroused thelr ire to such extent that they appealed to the manager of the “concession” for protection. That gen- tleman’s polite remonstrance was re- ceived by Mr. F. in angry spirit and the language with which he retorted was so indelicate as to drive thé women away. Then a special policeman was summoned, and when Mr. F. resisted arrest his face was battered until he succumbed to the inevitable. “I had half a heat on or I wouldn’t a-done it,” he muttered, tenderly finger- ing a nose abrasion, as he stood before Judge Shortall. “It's too bad,” sald his Honor, “that these men didn't duck you in the'lake as well as mar your facial comeliness. The language which ‘they allege you uttered within hearing of women will not redound to your advantage when you come up here next Saturday for sentence.” “It's me foist offense,” was the’ re- joinder, “and I can prove dat me char- acter’'s good."” “You'll need some pretty strong tes- timony to convince me of that” sald the court. 5 \ ——————————— CONDEMNED MURDERER IS WITNESS IN. CIVIL SUIT Joseph Feld, Who . Killed His Father- in-Law, Need Not Pay Extor- tionate Attorney’s Fees. Joseph Feld, a former policeman, who is under sentence of death for killing his father-in-law, was a' witness in Justice . of the Peace Danlels’ court yesterday in a suit brought, jointly against him, his brother, Emil ‘Feld, and his mother, Mrs, Christina Feld. The sult was brought by George C. Appel, who wanted $250 as attorney’s fees for having assisted in Feld’s defense on the murder charge and also in divorce proceedings brought by Feld's wife. Feld was brought into the courtroom in handcuffs in charge of a deputy sheriff, the order for his appearance as a witness having been Issued by Judge Graham. Feld did not 100k 1ike a man who is in the shadow of death and gave his answers to the questions put by the attorneys in .the suit in-a quiet way. He said that he had promised Appel that the latter would be pald for his legal services and in fact Appel had 10 BE CAWTED Works Board Decrees That Public and Private Con- 7EST OF FIT DECIDES QUESTION| tracts Must Be Finished NEW SEWER TO BE BUILT Park Commissioners Will Be Asked for’ Permission to Erect a Pumping Station e s The Board of Pablic Works yesterday took steps to bring dilatory contractors to time by adopting a resoiution declaring that from and after the 6th day of June, 1906, no extension of time will be granted within which to perform street work un- der a private contract beyond the time fixed in the resoiution of the board grant- Ing permission to perform such work, un- less ‘it shall satisfactorily appear that substantial progress has been made in the prosecution of the work contracted for. The resolution also provides that no ex- tension of time shall be recommended for work done under public contract unless it shall satisfactorily appear that the failure to commence and prosecute the work has not been due to any cause over which the contractor had control. The preamble of the resolution says: The lack of diligence manifested by contrac- tors In the prosecution of street improvements, under private, as well as pubiic contracts, has e so productive of-warranted complaints from property owners and other persons inter- ested generally, and so detrimental to the pub- lic interest and convenience, that it is now incumbent upon this board to adopt such remedlal measures as will in is judgment ef- fectively _discourage the practices and pro- cedure héretofore obtaining . that have in a very important degree contributed to the in- lerable conditions now the projection of desirable streat improvements. The Board of Works adopted the recom- mendation of City Engineer Woodward to extend the main sewer for the Richmond and Sunset didtricts, which starts at the southern end of the northerly on Forty-eighth avenue through a tunnel under Point Lobos Hill, discharg- ing in the swift current near Lands End. ‘While the tunnel is being constructed it will be necessary to provide a temporary pumping station in Golden Gate Park on the line. of Forty-eighth avenue, which | will force the sewage to awvallable points for use in' the cultivation of the park, as is now done with the sewage from the H street sewer to Twentleth avenue. The Board of Works will ask the Park Commission for permission to construct the temporary pumping station, Superin- tendent McLaren havingtexpressed his op- position to the plan to the City Engineer. The board asked the City Attorney as to whether the city or the Harbor Commis- sion hag jurisdiction over Channel street, between Fifth and Seventh, it being pro- posed to collect rental from those occupy- ing the ground. The board ordered bids invited for the paving of Bartlett alley and Sixteenth street, between Folsom and Valencia, un- der the bond issue. MASTER BAKERS WILL MEET IN OAKLAND Convention for the Advance- ment of the Confectioners’ Art Set for Sunday. For the adyancement of the sclentific and industrial welfare of the art of bak- | ing -and confectioning the. Pacific Coast Master Bakers’ Association will hold its monthly convention in Oakland next Sun- day. The association has Its headquar- ters in San Francisco and has a member- ship of over 100 in the States of Washing- | ton, Oregon, Nevada and California.

Walter Scott, the Death Valley miner and actor, took the law into his own hands yesterday and told Judge Dunne through his attorneys, Louls Ferrari and John J. Greeley, that he would go to San Bernardino to stand his trial on the charge of assault with a dead- ly weapon, but wanted to be released on bonds till he had fulfilled his theat- rical engagements. The Judge took him at his word and remanded him, but allowed him to go on bonds of $500. Scott’s counsel had argued on the ap- plication for a writ of habeas corpus for his release, that the whole pro- ceedings in regard to the Issuance of the warrant by a Justice of the Peace at San Bernardino were irregular and defective, inasmuch as ' the affidavit had been made before the Deputy Dis- trict Attorney instead of before the magistrate and no bail had been fixed on the warrant. The Judge condemned the proceedings and said that if the original complaint had been before him instead of a duplicate he would have dlischarged the prisoner. It was then that Scott chimed in with his promise to go to San Bernardino to stand his trial. 3 After being released on bonds Scott left for Fresno. —_————— ‘Will_Control Stationery Supplies.
