SPORTSMEN AFlELD
IN QUEST OF GAME
The OpeD Seosop Sends Shooters
to the Huunts Of Deer
and Doves

The shooting season will be in full
swing this afternoon, when deer and
doves will replace the inanimate targets,
at which the shotgun brigade have been
peppering these many months.
The gunstores were thronged with
sportsmen yesterday, purchasing ammu-
milton in anticipation of a pilgrimage to
the haunts of game to-day. The majority
will shoot over the territory within easy
access of this city. Some will press on to
the hunting grounds to the north In Men
docino County and to the east in Sierra
Nevada mountains. From the glowing ac-
counts received here this State can well
lay claim to the title "Sportsmens Para
disc" The fishing and shooting are all
that the most ardent could desire.
The officials of the Yuba and Suffer
Gun Club, of Marysville, are actively en-
gagged preparing for their annual dove
stew held in conjunction with their pigeon
shoot. Otto Feudner won both the live
bird and blue rock medals last year,
emblematic of the championship of North
ern California.

ment will be held on the oath and 25th

Arellaes blew his whistle, which was

After being placed in a cell Hinkel

his predicament, begged his assistance.
His employer offered to furnish the
necessary amount of bail for Hinkel,
but positively refused to assist Mrs.
Ruhling in gaining her freedom. But
Hinkel would not accept his offer, de-
claring that he would rather die than
desert his fair companion. Several
hours later the couple were released on
$40 bail, which was taken from the
amount found in the collectors pockets.
Through the efforts of several friends
Hinkel, on the following day, had the
cases against him and Mrs. Ruhling

the disagreeable episode, HinkePs en-
ployer sent him a note, informing him
that his services were no longer re-
quired.
Judge Belcher, on consideration of
all the facts introduced, refused to
grant either party decree of divorce
and they were sent away unhappy.
Judge Groezinger, who represented
Ruhling, stated that shortly his client

clares that the companies must pay the
tax. As there is no way of putting
stamp on telephone message, Congress
decreed that the companies should con-
tribute to the expenses of the war ac-
cording to the quantity of business done,
as shown by the monthly statements.
1T was our Intention, said Mr..
Glass, TO charge the stamp to the pub
lie on all lowpriced messages and bear
It on all above 80 cents"
1t is well known that at least ninety
five out of every 100 messages are for
amounts less than so cents, hence the
generosity of Mr.. Glass and his company
is on a par with the self denial of the
fox who didn't like sour grapes.
The telegraph companies are equally az
unpatriotic as the others and are max
ing the public suffer. Superintendent
Jaynes said:
I'VE are not trying to evade the law.
That is not our intention. The law states
distinctly that the maker OF the enumer-
ated documents must fix the stamps or
stand the penalty of a 500 fine. Moreover,
if we accept a message without such
stamp we are liable to a fine of $40.
"Of course, in the matter of express
companies, the latter are the makers of
the receipt, and, therefore, must pay for
the stamp; but with US it is different. The
person writing and signing message Is
the maker thereof, and such telegram is d
document in the Interpretation Of the law.
'In order that there may be no doubt as
to our position and responsibility, l sub
mitted the matter to the only proper au-
Revenue, receiving the following reply:
Upon the question as to whose duty it is to
afhX a stamp required b. the act OF June IL.
1898, to each Geographic message offered for
transmission, you are advised that this office
rules that the duty devolves upon the person
who makes signs or issues the message. Sec
ton Of the act provides that If any person
or persons shall make, sign or Issue any in
strument, document or paper OF any descrlp-
ton whatsoever, without the same being duly
stamped for denoting the tax thereon, the said
person or persons shall be deemed guilty OF
q misdemeanor, and on conviction thereof shall
pay fine of not more than 500. Telegraphic
dispatches and messages are enumerated in the
act as requiring the documentary l-cent stamp.
Section IS OF the act imposes upon the tele-
graph company a penalty of SO for transmit
ting any dispatch or message that has not
been stamped in accordance with section Z.
Thus, you see, there is no doubt in our
case. At any rate, we pay stamps on
almost everything we do, and truly bear
our proportion of the tax in that manner.
superintendent Jaynes does not take
the legal view of the matter. 1t was not
and could not have been the intention to
have exempted the telegraph companies
from paying their just pro rata of the
tax. They are making enormous profits
out of the war, and it cannot be believed
that Congress intended that they should
be exempted from paying their share of
an obligation to which every poor work
ingman in the United States is contribut-
ing cheerfully and with a loyal heart.

BOTH ARE DENIED A DIVORCE
AN INTERESTING EPISODE rs
RECALLED.

The marital woes of Frederick W. e.
Ruhling, necessarily involving those Of
his wife. Mary E. Ruhling, were aired
yesterday in Judge Belcher's court.
Contrary to the most ardent expecta-
tons of the unhappy couple, however,
the court refused to grant the litigants
a decree of divorce, and they left the
courtroom disappointed in themselves,
each other and in the ways of the
law.
Mrs. Rulings tale of trouble was
first considered. In her complaint for
divorce she alleged that ever since her
marriage her husband has treated her
in cruel manner, accused her of IN
chastity and referred to her as q
"schemer and robber."
Mrs. Ruhling was first put on the
stand. She testified as to the allega-
lions In the complaint and was cor
roborated by her daughter, Miss Duffy,
and her brother, Herbert Judge The
case of the plaintiff then rested and
the answer Of the defendant and his
cross complaint were taken up by the
court. He in turn accused his wife
of unbecoming conduct and then re-

in the life of his wife since their mar
riage, which occurred in February of
the present year. Through the episode
referred to J. w. Hinkel, collector for
a well-known real estate firm, lost his
position, and he and Mrs. Ruhling
spent a few unhappy hours behind
prison bars.
Hinkel became smitten with the
charms of Mrs. Ruhling, who was re-
ferred to in articles published at that
time as "dashing grass widow" She
was not grass widow, however, hav-
ing been married to Ruhling some
three months. In an evil moment
Hinkel, who is the son of prominent
contractor, met Mrs. Ruhling, and on
May IS invited her to the Cliff House

at this remark and placed him under

niece of the grand old naval hero,
christened the torpedo boat destroyer
Farragut at the Union Iron Works

The matter of the appropriate words
TO be used was discussed on the way
to the Union Iron Works by General
Merriam, representing the army, and

Miss Ashe that the words of the hero
of New Orleans would be most appro-

spirit Of the occasion and fulfilled her

When President Mckinley sent out
his first call for volunteers to help
suppress Spanish misrule in Cuba
and 10 conquer the naughty dons,
Michigan was asked to furnish
four regiments of infantry, and
she responded to, the call prompt
ly. The state militia already COM
prised nearly the requisite number of
men to fill the quota, and Gov. Pingree
Immediately sent forth an order that
quickly concentrated at the state camp
grounds at Island Lake the brightest
and finest specimens of manhood to be
found in the Wolverine peninsulas.
Among the 1000 brave boys who had
so sacrificingly laid aside positions of
honor and responsibility in order to
serve their country in the great hui
manitarian task before it, and be a
credit to old Michigan, none were
destined to play more important part
than seven printers, all members of
company F, Thirty-third Michigan
volunteers. Weeks before the declara-
tion of war was made, these members
of the printoriai ''profesh" had SOL
e1pnly agreed to take up arms against
Spain, should their country require
it, and the agreement was kept: :,
The story of the trials, hardships
