POLICE COURT CLERKS.
They VIII Obey tho Ordinance Regard
ing the Hours for Accepting
Bonds.

The Board of Supervisors on May 81,
1891, adopted order 1929 which reads as
follows:
The clerks of the police courts shall be in at
tendance in their respective courtrooms or
Offices attached thereto from 3 A. NJ. until 4
p. NJ. every day in the week, Sundays and holt
days excepted, to perform the duties imposed
and as required by law. The clerks of the
police courts shall also alternate so that one
clerk in turn shall be in attendance at the
courtroom or Office attached thereto every
evening in the week from z 30 TO 10 O'Clock,
and on Sundays and holidays from 10 A. NJ to
p. NJ. for the purpose of taking bail bonds
where the sufficiency and qualification of the
sureties are examined into and approved.
The clerks of the police courts shall not ae-
cept sureties on bail bonds except within the
places and within the time prescribed by this
section.
Since the order was passed it has been
honored more in the breach than In the
observance. Complaints were loudly made
on several occasions by attorneys and de-
PENDANTS that it was impossible for them
to get any one to accept bonds without
considerable unnecessary inconvenience,
and the clerks being stirred up by these
complaints obeyed the ordinance for a few
weeks and then utterly ignored it.
Clerk Sullivan OF Judge Lows court only
learned on Sunday that such an ordinance
was in force and yesterday he notified the
other clerks that he would at once carry
out it's provisions. He was on duty at the
City Prison last night. The other clerks
have agreed to take their turn

PREDICAMEHT.
An Operate Singer Who Is a
Martyr to Jealousy and
Hate.
c. 3. Fulton, Alias Whitney, Arrested
on Four Charges Of Grand
Larceny.

G. B. Fulton, alias Frank Whitney, an
operate singer, wants it understood that
he is the victim Of one woman's jealousy
and of another woman's hate.
He was arrested few days ago on four
charges of grand larceny, the complaining
witness being Mrs. A. S. Berger, Lilac
avenue. He roomed in the house of Mrs.
Berger and was on very intimate terms
with the family, SO much so that Berger
commenced a suit for divorce against his
wife, which was afterward withdrawn.
Fulton, since 1886, has known Mrs.
Laura de Hull, who has breach of prom
Use suit pending in the Fresno courts
against Lucius Edgerly a raisin-grower, in
which she claims $50, 900 damages. Fulton
alleges that Mrs. de Hull is at the bottom
OF his troubles.
When the cases against him were called
IN Judge Lows court yesterday he re-
counted a portion of Mrs. de Hull's past
history. He said she was connected with
the famous Crouch murder case in Michi-
gan, and that she had been the keeper of
houses OF Ill fame in Detroit, Mich, and in
Indianapolis, Ind.
For some years he lost trace of her till
on last Thanksgiving day while he was
walking along Market street with Mrs.
Berger he met her face to face. She spoke
| to him, and he introduced her to Mrs
Berger. Since then she has been poison
ing Mrs. Berger's mind against him, which
! had led to his arrest.
| Knowing Mrs. de Hull's past history,
Edgerly had offered him $1,000 to testify in
his favor in the breach-of-promise suit,
and Mrs. de Hull having ascertained that
fact had offered him $3.50 cash down to go
| to New York, and $3.50 more after she pro-
cured verdict in her favor
He blamed Mrs. de Hull for instigating
the Bergers to have him arrested and for
keeping them from withdrawing the
charges.
After hearing the evidence the Judge re-
duced the charges to petty larceny. Full
ton was then advised that if he would
plead guilty to one charge the other three
would be withdrawn. He did so, but there
was no disposition shown to withdraw the
other three charges. The Judge did not
like the aspect of the case and continued
the further hearing till to-day.

periences with Miss Susan e. Anthony at
the National Democratic and Republican
conventions of 1870, when woman s rights
were just beginning to form factor in
politics.
Times have changed since them" said
she. ''It does not now require the same
courage to say that you believe in the
suffrage for women. Then it was as much
as young girls reputation was worth TO
make that declaration. Now, when ] look
around at these intelligent, handsome
young women" and the speaker Indicated
the members of the club by sweep of her
hand. II realize that when we of the past
generation lay aside our work it will be
taken up by strong and noble successors,
well fitted to bring it to a successful issue"
Mrs Gordon declared that she was con-
WINGED that the great mass of men believed
in allowing women to vote.
Mrs. Gordon then made an eloquent ex-
position of the doctrine of the suffragists.
She was followed by Emily Pitt-Stevens,
Mrs. Gregory and other ladies. A number
of gentlemen also addressed the audience.
An appeal was made for volunteers will
ing TO devote time to the sale of TICKETS for
benefit for Mrs. Gordon to be given at
the same hall Monday evening, May s.
The request was received with enthusiastic
applause, and large number of ladies and
gentlemen came forward to get tickets.
The speeches of the evening were pre-
ceded by an interesting programme. 1t
was as follows: Piano solo, Mrs. Cook !;
recitation, Miss Marguerite Saxton; recita-
ton, Miss Lucille Meiggs; soprano solo,
Mrs. Bessie Il. Dibble.

POLITICS IN The HOME,
An Idea Approved by the Young
Wonen'S Suffrage
Club.
THE TIMES ARE CHANGED
Mrs. Gordon Prophesles the Adop-
ton of the Suffrage
Amendment.

'Home and Politics" was the theme that
occupied the attention of the Young
Women's Suffrage Club at their meeting
at 900 Market street last night. Mrs. NJ. L.
Chandler of Alameda and Mrs. Laura de
Force Gordon were the main speakers
Many others volunteered.
The hall was well filled, the proportion
of men present being surprisingly large.
A feature of the evening was the introduce
ton of suffrage" hat, of white straw
with a broad orange band. 1t made q
striking contrast to some of the feather
burdened headgear worn by ladies not
members of the club.
Mrs. Chandler was the first speaker. She
explained that she was making her maiden
effort as an orator, and then told modestly
why she thought politics and home should
be closely related.
Her chief reason was that women should
understand politics in order to train their
children properly. Children would grow
up to be more patriotic men and women,
the speaker declared, if their mothers,
being well versed in the affairs of the
country, were able to teach them how to
nobly perform the duties of the citizen.
Mrs. Gordon referred feelingly to her ex-

fewer church members and churches in
proportion to the population than there
were thirty years ago"
The speaker went on to say that Metho-
dism was not being fairly tried in the
cities, and he went on to suggest some
characteristics of an ideal city church; it
should reach the people, both the regular
church-goer and those who have lapsed.
'.The church must adapt itself to the nom
church-goer. That church will be at
tractive4that is, ministering church. 1t
should allow no philanthrophic or fra
ternal or charitable institution to point to
its closed doors and folded hands and say ::
we are doing more than you to relieve
the sick, to aid the widow and the father
less"
The modern church with its rented pews
and its doors closed six days in the week is
not like the primitive church which was
organized for the daily ministration; nor
the church of prophecy, OF which it is said
ats gates shall not be shut day nor
night" The ideal church will keep close
to the people; it will be a. strong church !;
let the stream of weary sin-burdened hui.
mainly have a chance to flow through it
all week.
The speaker concluded by urging that
churches be made great musical and liter
airy circles making all the light of modern
thought and secular science gather round
the cross of Christ.

Meter. at the corner of Ashby and Shat
tuck avenues was burned to the ground
early yesterday morning. Mrs. van Meter
and Mrs. Kroney, who were sleeping In

capped with their lives. 1t would have
been an easy matter to save the house and
its contents from destruction had a good
water supply been at hand.
The origin of the fire is unknown. The
house alone was insured for $4,000, besides
large amount on the furniture.

COTTAGES ON THE WATER.
A Novel Scheme to Rent Summer Homes
for Outings.


for Outings.
A company has been organized in New
York to ''build, rent and operate house
boats" says Kate Fields Washington. 81
foresee for this enterprising concern very
large revenue, as the people who have
hitherto rented summer cottages will
hail with Joy scheme that promises
freedom from several of the worst
features of the cottage system, while
the landlords - if the owners of the
boats can be so called = will en-
joy, on their part, exemption from
few of the ordinary summer
tenants most annoying complaints.
If the location seems malarious, or the
neighbors are too noisy, it is left with the
tenant himself TO hire tugboat and be
moved. No householder could be so I'M
reasonable as to insist upon water through
the house when there is water all around
it, and the vexed question of the proper
condition of the cellar would be settled by
the absence of that bone of contention. On
the part of the occupants there win be still
greater advantages. Unwelcome guests
can be avoided by the simple experiment
of anchoring little further from shore
The head of the house can be sure that the
family are all in by securing the small boat
with paddock, and ennui can always be
kept at bay by the prospect of moving or
the thought of a few of the accidents which
might happen"

A Good California Book.

California; Her Industries, Attractions and
Builders is the title of work just published
by J. C. Hoag. He is an experienced writer
and has been in close touch with the promi-
nent men and industries of California for sew
eral years as a contributor to the Pacific Rural
Mechanics Fair Daily This new publication
gives forceful idea of the State in all
that its title implies and in many respects has
more merit than other publications OF more

be good factor in increasing the population
and showing the Golden State as IL now is and
what her future will be.
