The remains of the unfortunate wo- man, who, through mad jealousy of a| man who*it now appears had deceived her, cut short the thread of his life and her own, were this evening sent to the home of her grief-stricken parents at Fresno, there to receive the last tribute | of parental love. E. F. Mitchell, a | brother-in-law of Mrs. Reed, accompa- nied the remalns. Orders have been received by the Coroner's office from P. C. Mahon, a brother of Mahon, to hold the remains.

Sev- eral of these letters from different wo- men are filled with phrases telling of love for “Jack,” and almost all end in reproaches for his neglect. The police have learned that Mahon's former wife, Mrs. Anna Mahon, is not in Denver, Colo,, or Salt Lale City, as was at first helleved, but that she is somewhere in Oregon, probably in Port- land. No message has been received from her, however, and if she has heard of the terrible death of her former hus- band and grieves for him she has made no sign.

McLean of the Pacific Theological Sem- inary announced today that the semi- nary would open for the coming year on Tuesday, August 14 the Receiving Hospital. The complaint upon which she wafl arrested was sworn to by Dr. J. K. Me- Lean, for twenty-five years pastor of the First Congregational Church of Oakland and now president of the Pa- cific Theological Seminary at Berkeley. Miss Bennett Imagines she married Wetherbee on July 4 of this year and that Dr, McLean performed the cers- mony. She has been worrying Dr. Me- Lean lately by weiting letters to him demanding that he send her the mar- rlage certificate. The minister's expla- nation that Wetherbee had been dead for fifteen years did not satisfy the young woman and she became so per- sistent in her demands for a certificate that it was deemed advisable to have her incarcerated. Attired in a green walst, a gray skirt and a becoming hat with white featbers, she was taken to the Receiv- ing Hespital today by Deputy Sheriff Wales. Her mother accompanied her and will yemain with her at the hospl- tal until her examination tomorrow by Judge Waste. She had a preliminary hearing today and demanded that a jury decide upon her mental condition. She declared she is not crazy, but in- sisted -she is married. This is not the first time Miss Ben- rett has been before the Lunacy Com- mission. For years she has written in- coherent letters to Superfor Judge Mel- vin, who finally committed her to the Napa Asylum two years ago. Her mania appears to be that she (s married and that some one is trying to conceal her marriage certificate. On all other sub- jects she is apparently sane. When sent to Napa she rapidly impreved and was released within a few months. She is 34 years old and her mother says her mind has been unbalanced for the last eight years. Miss Bennett i{s the daughter of the late Thomas Bennett, formerly a promi- nent real estate man of Oakland. She was formerly a school teacher and over- study is thought to have caused her dementia.

RED BLUFF, Aug. 9.—The Sunset Telephone Company is likely to have a formidable competitor in Tehama County, according to recent develop- ments. Some time ago the Supervisors granted a franchise to O. B. Wheeler anc -F. A. Graves to maintain a tele- phone line along the roads in the coun- ty. The Sunset representative bid a kigher amount for the franchise, but because of a legal technicality his bid was not allowed to stand and the local pecple were awarded the franchise. It then developed that {he Sunset line has been using the highways for many years without obtalning a franchise and the recent action of the Superyisors granting to Wheeler and Graves a franchise over the county highways gives them a great advantage over the old company. Wheeler and Graves have new applied for a franchise to erect poles and string wires through the streetc of Red Bluff. ———— NEW ISLAND ANNOUNCES ITSELF BY SPOUTING STEAM TACOMA, Aug. 9.—Captain Truebridze of the steamship Northwestern brings | from the north a photograph taken by an officer of the revenue cutter Perry of the newly formed island which lies fifty miles west of Duteh Harbor, directly between the Bogoslof Islands, eommon- 1y known as Castle and Fire Islauds.

VALLEJO, Aug. 9.—From reliable authority here The Call representative learns that the new chief of the Bureau of Yards and Docks of the Navy De- partment, who will soon be selected to| fill the vacancy caused by the retire- ment of Rear Admiral Endicott, will be Civil Engineer Richard. C. Hollyday, at present stationed at the New York navy yard and a man whose record at Mare Island first attracted the attention of the department. The new naval bill restricts the appointment of chief of this bureau to:the corps of civil engi- neers. Hollyday first saw service at Bremer- | ton yard, where he had charge of the bullding of the great drydock and other structures, and then came to| Mare Island, where he was on duty for four years. He introduced compressed air tolls at this yard in the face of vio- lent opposition, and so satisfactory was his work on the naval prison here that he received special commendation. | Engineer Hollyday has always been| very friendly to Mare Island and the Pacific Coast and his appointment would | be a fortunate one for the local estab- | lishment.
