This isalso the reason why thonsands upon thousands of women are corre- sponding with Mrs Pinkham, daughter- u-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, at Lynn, Ma To her they can confide every detail of their illness. and from her great knowledge, obtained from years of experience in treating feraale 115, Mrs. Pinkham can advise sick women more wisely than the local physician, Read how Mrs.Pinkham helped Mrs.T.

Yours, Mr. Cook, | for $65. Please step up and put down a deposit.” Little did Morton L. Cook think when he stepped up to Auctioneer Arthur Spear | that he had bought a small gold mine for a song. | Who would think to pick up a rare painting in an auction-house in this city? {In rope there are traditions about w and Reynoldses being picked up 8. but a similar thing really hap- | Turne; | fon a son | pened in Spear’s auction-house in this city | recently. It wes at the szle of the furniture of | the 0ld Falr mansion, which had been or- dered by Mrs. Hermaan Oelrichs. Morton L. Cook, the advertising man, dropped in at the sale..He was singularly struck by an old ofl painting and decided- that he would like it for hls home. It was knocked down to him for 365, and he sent it to Gump’s to be reframed before he sent it out to his house. < “How much do you want to spend on the frame, about $50?”" A. L. Gump asked. Cook consented to the price and selected a neat glit affair. About a week later when he ‘dropped into thé picture store Gump informed him that if he cared to sell the picture he would be glad to buy it. But Cook still admired the painting and declined to sell it. He was informed by A. L. Gump, who had studied the sig- nature and’ traced the history of the picture that it was a Willems and that it was worth about $2500. It evidently had begn pleked up by James G. Falir while in Edrope, and after his death the value of | the picture was not known to his heirs. The picture is strong in color and ac- tion and is entitled “The Engagement.” Florent Willems, the artist, was born at Liege. His paintings, few in number, bring a high price whenever placed on sale. About twenty-five years ago two of his paintings were offered for sale, “The Reading” and ““No Song.” Each brought in the.nelghborhood of $2000. A. L. Gump in an interview yesterday afternoon sald: “The moment I saw the picture 1 'realized that it was a good one. 1 Jooked it up and found that it was a Willems. This artist’s paintings are rare and are well known in art circles. The pleture is worth at least $2500. It s a picture that would have a ready sale among collectors of paintings of the older schools.” A peculiar incident related by A. Gump is the fact that Mrs. Oelrichs sent iInto the auction sale a painting by Willlam Hart. It was bought by James McNab for $550. He considers that if the plcture had been properly advertised among art collectors it would have sold for $1500. e e Sorlie Gets Papers Back. Charles B. Sorlle has won his fight to be reinstated as a citizen of the United States. Not long ago his papers were cenceled on the allegation that they had been fraudulently obtained. Sorlie proved, however, that the,papers had been canceled without his knowledge, and that he did not obtain them fraud- ulently. As a result Judge Hosmer re- stored him to citizenship. = e gt Abducted by Father and Is Found in This City. PN NN Wailing for “‘Mamma Lizzie”’ Leads to Discovery. Parent Flees Portland and Soon Meets a Waitress. Little Grace de Bord is smiling into ser fond mother’s eyes again thls 1orning after a series of strange ad- ;entures that completely bafed the omprehension of her baby mind. A separation of parents, a kidnap- 1ug, a long trip over the water and an unhappy existence ' Wwith « strange woman whom she was -ompelled to call mother were the hap- senings crowded into the last month of her young life. But the clouds are all gone now, and the world seems a very plezsant place in which to live. George de Hord married a beautiful Hungarian girl in -New Jersey just ‘hree years ago. The conple drifted the next year to Oregon, where the ahild was born. De Bord made a good dving in Portlund, and the family was { gotting along very well until he be- san to be attentive to other women. ( Finally the couple decided to sep- arate. Little Grace was left in the -are of the mother. Mrs. de Bord went to work in Portland, and tho child dur- ing her absence was left in the cus- tody of the father's relatives. One day the husband returned. seizsed the iittle girl and disappeared again. The mother was frantic with grief, No one could tell her of the whereabouts of the pride of her heart. While the mother was grieving in Portland Secretary White of the Bo- slety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children in this city was investigating = rwnor that all was not right with the De Bord family of father, mother and haby girl, llviag with a Mrs. Vautrim at 823 Jessie street. His assistants lcerned that the couple were not mar- rled and that the little girl continual- ly cried for “Mamma Lizzie.” The couple had spoken of Fortland fre- quently to their friends, and when Sec- retary White wrote to the children’s avclety in the porthern city he received full informatién of the kidnaping. The real Mrs. de Bord came. to San Francisco, but the recreant husband had become alarmed and dlsappeared with his paramour. They were traced to 1436 Taylor street by the soclety's of- ficers, and there it was yesterday morn- ing that mother and daughier were re- united. The matter will come up in Judge Dunne's court this morning. The woman with whom De Bord lived 1is called Marie Miller and i8 a waltress ll\ a Pacific-street dance hall. AEW POLCENA NETS DEFEAT E. F. Lawrence Assaults George C. Wilmot and Re- ceives a Sound Thrashing ——— Exactly three months after his ap- pointment.as a member of the police force four charges were preferred against Policeman Edward F. Law- rence. They were filed by Captain Duke vesterday. The charges are making a false report, intoxication, neglect. of duty and unofficerlike conduct. Lawrence met a Tartar in George C. Wilmot, proprietor. of the. Langham cafe at Ellls and Mason streets. He Is much the smaller man of the two. Wil- mot was walking along O'Farrell street about 4 o’clock on the morning of April 7 with two friends, D. B. Chandler, an Eastern man, and_Miss May Dwyer, 340 O'Farrell street. Chandler was walking in front and Wilmot and the woman, In a spirit of fun, slipped into a doorway near Mason street. Lawrence, who should have been in bed, confronted Wilmot and his female friend as they came laughing“out of the doorway, and Lawrence remarked, “Are you lost or what are you doing?” Wilmot replied, “That’s a good one, 2sking if I am lost. What do you take me for?” Lawrence, who was considerably un- der the influence of ‘liquor, retorted, “Don’t be fresh, young fellow; I'm an officer,” and hg showed his star. He knocked Wilmbdt down by a straight blow in the face. Wilmoe picked him- self up and went at Lawrence like a wildcat, closing both his eyes and breaking his nose. Lawrence yelled that he had got enough and Wilmot walked away. Lawrence, who is married and lives at 1437 Broderick street, sent in a re- port to Captain Mooney that he would not appear for duty, as he had been re- pairing his woodshed and a plece of wood had struck him on the face, breaking his nose and blacking his eyes. Policeman Orr had seen Lawrence after the fight, so he sent in a report, as the affair happened on his beat. Captain Duke went to Lawrence's house and Lawrenee accounted for his eyes by saying that he had been re- from the roof. Finally, he admitted having a-fight with Wilthot, but sald that Wilmot had struck him first. The captain told him he had neglected his duty in not arresting Wilmot, 1f that were true. The captain saw Wilmot and filed the charges. Lawrence joined the force on Janu- ary 10, and a few d=ya later was as- signed tp Captain Mooney's district. He was born in Adelaide, Australia, and is a butcher. The chances are that he will get his walking ticket on Friday. ———————————— “Qur Western Friend.” The great home and family magazine, has ‘broken all records for rapid growth. . —————————— SUIT FOR HALF A MILLION.—Strati Kaufman, as attorneys for E.

Fells Him Wit " o o BY JAMES C. CRAWFORD. Extensive and varied experience as’ | & lodger had eguipped Herman Krouse with fair knowledge of the legal rights and unwritten prerogaiives of any person to whom he punctually pald room rental, so it was without hesitancy that he protested against Mrs. Annle Larson’s free use of his apartment in her domicile, 452 Minna street, while he was absent therefrom. His protest was provoked by finding Mrs. Larson occupying his bed when he unexpectedly entered his chamber last Monday afternoon. 4 “Get ouid,” he said, “und shtay ould. I vants to lie mineself down.” “Nein,” the landlady - is alleged to have ‘retorted. *“Dis house mine owen iss, und mid dis ped I take der nap ven 1d I likes tp do 1d.” “Bud,” Mr. Krouse argued, "dls room der ‘rend I pays feah und in der ped no righc you hef ter be, yes?” “Dis ped you owens der nlghd dime in, und in der day dime mine ped 1d 1s8,” Mrs. Larson contended. Z After further discussion, in which | the honors of logic were about evenly balanced, Mrs. Larson proposed a com- promise by telling Mr. Krouse that, in | view of his plea of fatigue, she would | abandon the couch if he would permit her to dress herself in seclusicn.. He accepted the condition and stepped outside—and she immediately bolted the door and then resumed her occu- pancy of the bed. But not to sleep. Mr. Krouse created such noise in the hallway that slumber was impossible, so. she arose, and, after donning presentable garb, sallied forth, picked up a washboard and temporarily silericéd him by smiting his head with it. When consciousness returned he retaliated by causing her arrest on a charge of battery. Preparatory to hearing the case Po- | lice ‘Judge Cabaniss is consulting va- rious authorities relating to the man- agement of apartment houses and also to the respective rights of landladies and lodgers. s e With® obvious intent to confuse his 2ccusers, Rudolf Velger, arresied for | Hioting last Sunday evening at Lotta’s Fountaln, removed his luxuriant beard after he was released on balil, and as| a result Patrolman Stelzner experi- enced considerable difficulty in identi- fying him when the case was called In Judge Shortall's court, which, by the by, was dersely packed with foreign- | looking persons, 5 Patrolman Stelzner swore that Wil- ligm. Meyers, jointly charged with him of the recently-shorn chin, had struck him with a brick. and several other people swore to having witnesved the assault, and then the Judge announced that he would hand down a decision 5 tomorrow. . . Emanuel Michelsen took unlawful pos- session of the apartment in Sohn & Mool- er's lodging-house, 204 East street, which bad been jointly rented by John Nelson, William Riise and John Mason, and the united efforts of the trio to oust the usurp- er were futile. Mr. Mooler then attempt- ed the eviction, but ‘with no success, and finally Mr. Sohn, a person of exceptional prowess, undertook ‘the task and was hurled headlong downstairs by Mr. Mich-. elsen. It fell to the lot of Patrolman Slattery to dislodge the intruder, and next Friday Jusge Mogan how he did it. il S After he had consumed $5 worth of auto- mobiling Willlam Richards, a commercial traveler from Chicado. sald “Skidoo” in response to the chauffeur's demand for payment of fare, and when arralgned be- fore Judge Conlan on the charge of hav- ing defrauded the mahout he complained hitterly of the indignities to which he had been subjected. “They chucked me into & cell,” he sald, smoothing out a wrinkle in the collar of his coat, a Mght check, "and kept me there all night in company of .two rough- ly-dressed men, who were so.drunk and disorder]y that sleep was imposaible. Just look at'the condition of my cloth added, gazing ruefully at the cre which the tailor had not made in his ga: ments. R “Why didii't you pay the chauffeur and thus avert all the unpleasantness you complain of?" the Judge Inguired. “I'll pay him now—I'd pay him a hun- dred times over rather than undergo a repetition of my experience in that pris- on,” was the reply. 4 And the fare was .

Fortunately for Mr. Horling, she was a widow when she was Svengalied by Mr. else the consequences might have been much more frightful than they actually were, though goodness knows they were bad enough. With the speil upon her she .meekly obeyed. his every command—aye, his- every hint—and when In lueld intervals she “pulled herself to- gether” and fled to escape a recurrence of the thralldom he inevitably pursued and again entranced her. It was after one of these recaptures, and €re his eye had entirely subjugated her will, that she offcred the resistance that provoked him to threaten to slay her. The next time she had a restoration of reason she remembered the threat, and | | utilizing it as a possible means of obtain- ing permanent freedom reported it to the police, who did the rest. There are folk, Mr. Resimus among them, who laugh to scorn the tale told by the putative modern Trilby, and allege that if any hypnotism was performed be- tween the couple she was the performer, her object being to force Mr. Resimus to relieve her of widowhood. However, both sides of the story are to be heard by Judge Conlan. DR E. J. Peterson complained that Miss Grace Phillips stole from him a sum of $7 while he slept in the Taylor-street lodging-house in which she was em- ploved as a chambermald. “l had the money in a puree,” he sald to Judge Mogan, “and before re- iiring I placed the ourse in one of my shoes. When I awoke,the purse was gone.” 4 “Why didn’t you conceal the shoe after you concealed the purse in i7" Prosecuting Attorney Duke asked Mr. Peterson, but the court sustained the defense's objectlon to the question on the ground that it was both immate- rial and irrelevant. Miss Phillips, entirely appareled in pink, averred that she had never seen “the: old shoe” much less “the old pure,” and knew nothing whatever about “the old money.” Moreover, she admired the complainant’s cheek in get- ting her arrested on such flimsy evi- dence. If he were to do such a thing to Oklahoma, whence she recently came. his shrift would be short. But chiv- alry seems to be dead in this town. Hearing continued till- today. €78 James A.
