WASHINGTON, May 31.-Several hundred
people gathered at st. Paurs Lutheran
church last night. They were there to
Bergling, the son of prominent business
| man, to Miss Ida johnson, a young, beau
| tiful and attractive lady. Long after the
| time for the ceremony neither bride nor
| bridegroom had appeared. The painful
runor was started that the match was of,
| and the congregation filed sadly and sor-
| rowfully away. The rumor proved cor
rect. Berghng is Catholic, but he had
! made up his mind to marry in the church
| to which his bethrothed belonged. He en-
gagged the services Of Lutheran pastor,
| and everything was progressing smoothly,
and the marriage bells were ringing in
prospective until late Monday night. Then
he told Miss Johnson that they must be
married by Catholic priest. She did not
like this turn of affairs. The guests had
been invited to Lutheran chur ch and
marriage feast. She refused point blank to
! change the programme. The young mans
entreaties could not swerve her from this
| and returned his engagement ring. Yes
terday morning he again tried to change
her mind, by correspondence, but in vain.
big brother of the young lady says
Bergling was actually like lunatic.
Bergling pere puts all the blame on Miss
Johnson for refusing to marry in the
Rowan Catholic church. "My son. said
he, sis the man and wears the breeches.
and he had a right to dictate where the
ceremony should take place. Miss John.
sons relatives are indignant, and say she
has had fortunate escape from I'm on
with such villain.
LEAVES OF ABSENCE.
The clerks in the departments are very
much surprised to learn the interpreted; on
which the executive officials give to the
new law as to the leaves of absence. 1t has
been the custom of many clerks to dec inc
to take all their vacation in the same year,
IN order to transfer their credit to the sue
ceeding year, and to then take a longer
vacation. Under application for such
longer leaves of absence the authorities
have decided that this transfer of credits
cannot be allowed; that but thirty days
under the law will be granted, and that if
the thirty days were not taken last year
the vacation is lost. The heads of depart.
ments have received very earnest protests
against such ruling. The language of
the law seems clear, that only thirty days
leave of absence shall be granted any year.
Meanwhile, cabinet officers do not set a
very good example. They are absent
weeks at time. Very few of them will
confine their absence to the thirty days
prescribed by law for their subordinates
MODEL CIVIL SERVICE RULES.

have been going over the rules submitted
by the civil service commits

MONTREAL, May 31.-The city was Wis
tied to-day by northwest gale which
caused a ship to break its moorings and

accidents by scatfolding and insecure

Homes of the Bonanza Kings.

The suburban homes Of the railroad
and bonanza kings Of San Francisco
are chiefly in the San Jose Valley,
which extends south from the city, not
far from the coast, but separated from
it by a range of hills. The snowy
places are scattered along the railroad
for distance Of forty miles. That Of
D. o. Mills, who is no longer a Califor-
nian, except for a few months of the
year, is called Millbrae. The house is
like a palace in size and external orna-
mentation, but is built Of wood, as are
all the others in the valley, on account
Of the dread Of earthquakes. Further
along is Belmont, where Ralston, the
unfortunate manager of the bank of
California, used to entertain strangers
and friends alike with lavish hospitality.
This property is in the hands Of a re-
ceiyer. At Menlo Park, thirty miles
from town, are dozen or so of very
expensive summer houses. The newest
and most wonderful is that of Flood,
of Comstock Lode celebrity. 1t ap-
pears in the distance like a magnificent
white marble pile of vast proportions
and ornate architecture, but proves, on
a nearer view, to be painted wood. 1t
stands in beautiful grounds, and is ap-
preached by winding avenue lined
with exquisite flowers. Another grand
place at Menlo cost the late banker,
Latham, a million, but cannot now be
sold for the 100000 mortgage that
rests on it. Ex-Governor Stanford's
estate embraces 5000 acres, much of
which is used for stock-breeding.
