f Humeltenberg is accused OF Dlgamy
by his wife, who lives In san Francisco.
she says that in October, 1901, he mar
ried Miss Hattie Noeller, of Honolulu,
and that he had never gotten u divorce
from her, whom he married ten years
ago. The matter Is now in the hands
of attorneys. and the police authorities
may take it up. The Chronicle, which
publishes the story exclusively thlS
morning, says:
1t was through an advertisement OF a
local fortune teller that Mrs. Grace HUI
meltcnhCrg, who, with her two children
lives at ilS Golden Gate avenue, learned
that her husband had married another
woman In Honolulu without the formal
ity of obtaining a divorce from his wife
in this city, with whom ne continued to
correspond after having married the
second one in Honolulu. William f.
Humeltenberg, who is accused of having
deserted his wife and two children and
married another woman in Honolulu, Is
a native of San Francisco. where he Is
very well known. His father, Meinrad
Humeltenberg, is the superintendent of
the Golden State and Miners Iron Works
and reputed to be wealthy. Win Humel-
tenbeTg, as he Is generally known, was
employed as machinSt and engineer, al
times in the foundry of which his father
is superintendent and at other fOundries
and was also for a time salesman for
Miller, Sloss & Scott and for the G,ors,
W. Gibbs Company. About ten years

Cheaper and Better Dinner. Than Can

In one respect London Ia In advance

AT the start the press paid much at

that its success has been positive and

the world.
Large kitchens w,,re placed in vari-
Gus crowded centers, within the reach
of people of small but assured In

do her own marketing and have her
own roast and other articles prepared
for the table in the public kitchen.
Il is obvious that dinner for .
thousand persons can be cooked at a
lower rate for each than can n dinner
for an ordinary family. Not only lie

ing in large quantities 1t is practicable
to get everything at a lower price. All
the work and annoyance and heat OF

The head cook employed in the public
