Jealousy ImpeIs a Mn to Commit Ma
iicious Assault.
George Altrup, saloon-keeper, was ar
rested yesterday on a charge of mayhem.
He was jealous of his wife and had bitten
off her nose.
Last March he went on a visit to Ger
many, leaving his saloon at 21S Kearny
street in charge of his bartender. Joseph
Cooper, and his wife, Bertha. Soon after
his arrival in the Fatherland he received a
note from his frau, Bertha, informing him
that she had sold out the saloon and did
not care fig whether he remained where he
was or returned to America Instantly he
started for home.
On his return late Sunday night there
was trouble all round, as he discovered
that his place in the household had been
assumed by the bartender. His jealousy
almost drove him insane, and all the morn
ing he searched for Cooper, who lives at 255
Miuna street.
At that address he met his wife, who or
dered him to leave. which goaded him on
to striking her. The couple fought and
Altrup, it is said, disfgured her face by
biting the nose in horrible manner.
She says she is suing him for divorce on
the grounds OF cruelty and desertlon. She
also stated that he had married her for
money and having squandered all she had
assaulted her maliciously yesterday. 1t
will be necessary to perform grating
operation on her nose.

The stockholders of the Sutter-street

ing yesterday afternoon with President

lowing officers were elected for the ensuing
year: President, X. +. Morrow; Vice

No choice was made for Superintendent,
although Johnson Reynolds was evidently
the most favored for the position. Ii not
being known that he would serve if elected
the matter was Indefinitely postponed.
The duties of the position will be filled by
Assistant Superintendent SWEET Tor the
time being at the latter's present salary,
and this arrangement may last for year in

FOR THE FAIR ONES.
A Sketch of Three WidOws-The
Craze for Old BrasseS.

Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher has returned
from Florida and is seen on the streets oeca-
so nally a little figure, slight, white haired
and folded in black shawl. When met
her yesterday there was the faintest touch
of pink on her cheeks, giving her that dell
cate, shell-like beauty which sometimes
goes " it'll 1t soft white skin and white curls.
She had bunch of lily f-the-valley pinned
on her bosom. Within the block l had
passed another woman whose proximity
made me look about startled. Had she rec
ognized the daughter of Victoria Woodruff?
/ think not. Neither had the pretty Zulu
Maud recognized her. a new generation
has grown UP, and in any case there would
have been nothing dramatic about the
rencontre. Yet meeting the two brought
back old memories. Mrs. Beecher's rooms
are full of pictures of her husband, as the
young lover, i'll the prime of life, as he was
the year he died and most of these pictures
are so placed that the trail of vine, the
petals OF Hover caresses them. Her lll-
terests in life are largely the things that IN.
terested him or that she believes would, II
he were now living, meet his approval.
She gives helping hand to the Brooklyn
Woman's Health Protective Association,
which wishes to clean the streets of dirty
city.
On the same uay passed Wllulu tue nun
two other widows. Mrs. Custer, in black
dress and with winning eyes, and Mrs.
Julia Dent Grant, who does not walk far,
butw crossing the sidewalk from her car
riage. Mrs. Custer has the record. be-
lieve, of never making an acquaintance VINO
does not wish to become her friend. she
walks the pavements with splendidly free
step, in which one could almost fancy a
reminiscence of the plains. a more prosaic
explanation is found in her broad-soed,
common-sense shoes. She is devoted to her
husbands memory and absorbed in her lit
erary occupations.
Mrs. Grant looks we'll and kindly and
stouter than is altogether becoming. Queen
Victoria, however, is fesher, and Mrs.
Grant dresses in better taste than Queen
Victoria. l fancy not much credence is to
be given to the report that she will go to
England to live with Mrs Sartorls. All her
interests are on this side of the water. An
other report even less probable says that
she has plans for voluminous literary pro-
duction. When she has finished the remIn-
iscences which now engage her and which
will be practically her autobiography 1t is
more than doubtful if she sets about any
further labor

UNDER CONSIDERATION.
Application for Sale of THE Dewing Pror
erry in Oakland.

Application for Sale of THE Dewing Prop
erty in Oakland.
An application was made to Judge Coffey
yesterday for an order authorizing the sale
of certain Oakland real estate belonging to
Arthur j., Alice Belle and Dora Dewing,
minors. The Judge objected, however, to
the proposed terms of sale.
The property is at the corner of Tenth
and Washington streets, and was appraised
last year at S37, 800. The mother of the
minors is their guardian, and owning one
half of the property wishes to sell. Capt.
talst Westphal OF this city made bid OF
S36, ,O00, intimating that he would increase
it TO S37, 900, leaving the children's half Of
the purchase money on mortgage for from
two to five years at 7 per cent interest.
The Judge doubted If any better invest
ment could be found. but when told that the
age of the youngest child is years, he re-
marked that the property would be worth
$100 900 or more when the boy came of age.
He ordered that the application for sale be
kept on the calendar for another week that
he might more fully consider it.

"A SUPERSTITION
BY a Prominent Physician.

BY n Prominent Physician.
Van Harlingen, the distinguished medical writer,
says:
When as formerly skin diseases supposed to
be due 10 some "acrId humor in the blood" physi-
clans sednlousiy avoided any attempt to check the
rash for fear that the disease might otherwise "fal
upon" some vital point. Some such view was ex-
tensively prevalent until quite recent years.
Many OF the Sarsaparillas having been created
under those old ideas still believe the eruptions
should be forced out, hence their use OF potash,
which has that unpleasant effect Van Harlingen
characterizes this old belief "a superstiton. and
adds that the commouest forms OF skin diseases are
acne (the ordinary pimply facial eruptions) and
eczema, and says medicine recognizes that dys-
pepsfa and constipation the comsRonest constttt-
Aondl causes.
We have we think, heretofore sufficiently shown
the inappropriateness of purely potash remedies as
compared with the soundness OF joys Vegetable
Sarsaparila in dyspepsia and constipation. Instead
of fearing to suppress the eruptons its effort is to
"dry them up" by stimulating the secretve and di-
gestive processes and gently arousing hepatic and
perstaltic action, and thus eliminate through the
natural channels No mystery surrounds Its splen-
did effects, IL is simply right.
