SURVIVAL OF BARBARITY.

The San Francisco call., 1895-11-02
he MARRIED HIS WIFE,
A Runaway Wedding at Sea
Supplemented in a Just
ice Court.
Sea Sickness Does Not Cause Regrets.
The Heydenfeldt Greer
Nuptials.

There was another chapter added yester-
day to a love story of the sea that had its
beginning many months ago.
my Heydenfeldt, son of Judge Heyden-
feldt, had come of age, and wanted to be
married under the law as other men are
married. Mr.. Heydenfeldt has been mar
ried some months as only few men are
married. How that was done was the
earlier chapter
Mr.. Heydenfeldt was not of age. but he
was very much in love with Mrs. Maud
Greer, a young widow, and his determine
ton to marry her was such as to warrant
him in overriding the wishes of his rela-
tives and comprising the laws which stand
between the accomplishment of youthful
desires when they cannot gain the guar
dams consent.
With a few friends he hired tugboat
and went to sea-three miles out to sea
where the laws of the land do not apply.
Herewith bride and groom so seasick as
to almost have lost interest in the pro-
ceedings-the commander of the tug said
the few words that made Mrs. Greer Mrs.
Heydenfeldt and made of young Iny Hey-
denfeldt married man.
Then they came back into the calm
waters of the bay and recovered the roses
on their checks and tried in vain to de-
ceive when they walked down between the
files OF newspaper men who were awaiting
them at the wharf wholly unconscious
/. that the man who taught the captain of
the tugboat how to say the formula and
signed as witness the certificate of mar
riage was himself newspaper man.
Then after the morning papers had
been read in the Heydenfeldt household
and the Greer home there wa S the talk Of
reconciliation to be brought about and for
giveness to be gained for the young hus-
band, but he was equal even to that. and
in very short time the happiness of the
young couple was communicated to and
became current III their entire circle.
But there is no statute directly touching
marriage at sea, and as the son of Judge
The San Francisco call., 1895-11-02

this was naturally irritating to the groom.
Besides, the fact was frequently men
toned in an unpleasant way by his
friends. The question was raised as to
whether marriage which was unlawful
on land could be made lawful by going to
sea. Altogether Mr.. Heydenfeldt was not
wholly satisfied. Being so well pleased
with his bargain matrimonially-if that
commercial term may be allowed-he was
determined to permit of no flaws that the
son, however young, of wise Judge, could
prevent.
He became of age yesterday and straight
way went up in the elevator at the City
Hall-he and his wife-and went to the
little office adjoining that of the County
Clerk, where Cupid folds his wings be-
tween the going and coming of such as he
and procured license in big, formal let
ters, formulated according to the require
ments of the law and wearing the great
seal of the City and County, and the sig
nature OF Cupid himself giving the sane
ton of the people of the State to his we'd
ding, as man of mature years-wedding
his wife.
They went down the dark stairway this
time and sought Justice of the Peace
Groezinger in his courtroom. and there, in
the presence of a couple of intimate friends
Mr.. and Mrs. Heydenfeldt were remarked
to each other.
This was such joy-to be married in the
sight of the law as we'll as out of sight of
land-that number of friends were in
vited and wedding supper was spread at
the Cafe Zinkand last evening and under
the sparkle of electric lights and of wine
and bright eyes the new wedding was
happily celebrated.

The will of the late Professor J. II.
Rosewald has been filed for probate by his
nephew, Bert r. Hecht. 1t is in his own
handwriting and is characteristic of the
man, particularly in its closing sentiment.
It's text is as follows:
SAN Francisco May "a, 1895.
Let this be known as my last will and testa-
ment
1t is my wish that all cash moneys, stocks,
bonds, real estate, life insurance policies and
negotiable property OF which l may be
possessed at the time of my death shall revert
10 my dearly beloved wife Julie for her sole
benefit, excepting as follows:
l baoueath the sum OF $3.50 one hundred

sion, the same sum 70 the Pioneer Kinder
garten, the same sum TO the Eureka Benevolent

sembe music in bound books, l bequeath 10

To my sisters Rosa and Biim (Blemma) be-
queath all my jeweiry and diamonds, to be
divided among them as they may see fit.
l know that after my death my dearly be-
loved wife Julie, who has always proved her-
self to be my truest and most loyal friend,
will in making her last will and testament
carry out the ideas which we have often
spoken of and agreed upon, viz: To provide
for such of her relatives and mine who stand
most in need of assistance, and also to make
certain bequests for charitable organizations
1t is my wish that my wife be sole executriX,
without bonds. and that she act in the prem
ises as she in her good judgment may see III
1t has always been my aim not to incur any
debts, and so far as my knowledge serves
me, owe nothing except sincere thanks TO my
friends and pity for my enemies.
J. II. ROsEwALD.
Mrs. Rosewad withdrew as executrix,
and appointed her nephew in her place.
In his petition for the probate of the will,
he states that Professor Rosewald owned
real property in this City amounting in
value to $4,000, and that his personal
property is valued at $4,000

Clerk, for transferring the legal papers
from the old boxes to the new ones; and if
we are correctly informed as to the way it
was allowed some of the board did not
know the fact until it was reported to them
after the board had adjourned.
This, to put the most liberal construc-
tion upon it, is, in our opinion, very un-
businesslike way of transacting such busi-
ness. and we would recommend that
henceforth the Board Of Supervisors exer-
else little more vigilance in the distrlbu-
ton of the peoples money.
ave also find many discrepancies in the
bids of the newspapers of the county for
advertising ordered by the various county
officials.
This seems to be due mainly to the fact
that the officials have failed to stipulate
the amount of space such advertisement
should occupy. We would recommend
that in sending out official notices the
officials should require that certain
uniform space be used, and that no greater
display be made than is necessary to bring
the matter properly before the public.
1.-THE same loose method of carrying on
the business relative to expenditure of the
public moneys has been apparent in bills
presented from the County Board of Edu-
cation - an expenditure in general not
in accordance with law and in special in
stances, to wit: For mileagc-Mlss Maggie
Tobin, S25 20, and G. S. Conner, $24 20, are
claims that should not have been allowed" p"
The report is signed by c. E. Barnes,
foreman of the Grand Jury.
The Solano County Grand Jury is COM
posed of storm faced farmers, many of
them from remote parts of the county. and
none OF them have any sympathy with the
political rings and comb binations that have
resulted in placing the patronage in the
hands of a few.
They are determined to bring the Super
visors to terms, and unless the abuses
complained of are at least modified the
Supervisors may hear from them again.
f. w. Gabriel, the expert of the Grand
Jury, is now preparing figures for the
suits against the two Vallejo Supervisors,
which will be for the difference between
the amount collected by them for mileage
and the sum actually earned.

There is probably no place in the United
States where halloween is celebrated with
the genuine Old-world zest and abandon
that annually prevails in Santa Barbara.
Last night the merry-makers were out in
tull force, and to-day this staid old town
found itself at SKIES and sevens. A few
gates attached to aristocratic residences
were kept in place by being securely
chained and padlocked. The rest were
found IN every conceivable condition. One
telegraph pole in a fashionable quarter
had eight gates strung on its arms.
Upon the premises of Professor Wilson,
who holds the cnair of Latin in the High
School, the most of the loose gates in town
were carefully ranged. with a notice call
ing attention TO the fact that tine professor
would dispose OF the articles to the
public at reasonable figures. Little bust
ness Is transacted by Santa Barbara people
to-day beyond recovering their lost prop
