Governor George c. Pardee is TAX

ton until the Legislature has provided
means for maintaining the courts. In

The lawyers, however, express the
opinion that the appointments are al
ready framed up in the Governors
mind and will shortly be announced.
The duty Of appointing a Supervisor
to fill vacancy in Merced County Is
said to be giving the chief executive
no little concern.
The general trend of rumor con-
corning prison management is to the
effect that Warden Tompkins admin
istration of affairs at San Quentin
hardly meets the approval of the gov
erning body. The Wardens integrity
is not questioned and it is freely ad-
mitted that he is not lacking in per-
sonal energy. 1t is said, however,
that his lack of knowledge in prison
affairs is lamentable and that his tenn
perament is such that the directors
have about given up hope that he will
ever acquire the influence that will
render his administration effective for
good. 1t would not be surprising if
the directors should take up the sub
ject of selecting a new Warden for the
penitentiary in Marin County.

missioners were appointed by Cover

was seriously injured last night in an
automobile accident at the corner of
Fell street and Masonic avenue The ac-
cident took place at o'clock Charles
]. Stovel an insurance man of 122 San
some street, was driving the machine
and his brother Roy and Bergevin
were riding in the rear seat.
The auto was going at a good speed
down Fell street, on it's return from
the park. AS the vehicle neared Ma
sonic avenue, a lumber wagon, be-
longing to j. H. Kruse of Twenty-third
and Folsom, driven by Charles Kinds,
rounded into Fell street.
Stovel attempted to pilot the car
past the wagon, but the auto struck
loose plank in the street. The heavy
piece of board was thrown against one
of the leading horses of the lumber
wagon. At the same time it caught
the wheel of the auto and swerved
that vehicle into the team Bergevin
was thrown from his seat and landed
heavily on the stone curb. Four of his
ribs were broken, his right patella and
right leg bone were fractured and his
body generally confused. One of the
horses was so badly injured that it had
to be shot by the police.
Bergevin was hurried to the Park
Hospital, where DR.. Pinkham set the
broken bones. The injured man suf-
fered extreme pain and may have pos
sibly been injured internally. After
his wounds were dressed he was re-
moved to his apartments at the Palace

WIFE'S SUPPORT

Judge Coffey Says There Is
a Difference in Amount
of Money Needed for Each

afternoon Judge Coffey decided that

estate Of her husband. Miles Baird
who has been adiudged incompetent

his mother, Mrs. Veronica Baird. The
younger Mrs. Baird applied for 5000 a
month, which was the amount she said
that had been allowed her by her hus-
band. Mrs. Baird Sr. thought SIS suf-
hclent, and Judge Coffey suggested
compromise of Sl90, which seemed
satisfactory to the guardian, but was
net agreed to by Attorney Heggerty,

His regular income from his share in

there was frequently greater sums in

JOLLY BROKERS
PLAN FOR Fun
Would Relax and Cultivate
Amenity by Club Formed
to Promote Sociability

The men who are active in the trans
action of business in connection with
the Merchants Exchange OF this city
took preliminary steps yesterday to
form club for the promotion of good
fellowship among all members of the
exchange and their representatiy
Each firm or individual holding GER
tifiCate Of membership in the Mer-
chants Exchange is entitled to have
one representative in the exchange.
Men lead strenuous life in the grain
board and in the marine department
Of the exchange. Representatives of
business houses are busy and have lit
tie time to get well acquainted Asper-
lties resulting from business transac-
tons have little chance to be healed
This condition of affairs led H. G.
Stindt to call together the younger men
connected with the exchange and to
explain to them what jolly times the
members of the Hay Exchange have
whenever they go Oft on picnic which
is once a year at least.
The effect of the hay mems picnic
does not wear off" said Stindt. They
set well acquainted, and business runs
with less friction for that reason. There
is no reason why the people about the
Merchants Exchange should not have
just as good times as the hay men"
Further than this, Stindt explained.
there were several sorts of functions in
which the grain brokers, all connected
with the produce business, and others,
could profitably take part. The entire
matter was threshed out yesterday H.
c. Stindt was elected temporary presi-
dent and Arthur Nelson temporary sec
rotary. 1t was voted to have another
meeting next Saturday, when bylaws
and a constitution may be provided for
and permanent officers will be named
Representatives of about twenty-five
business houses were present at the
first meeting. The idea grew out of
Il dinner that was held a week ago
yesterday-the day that the Merchants
Exchange was formally dedicated by
its members. There was so much fun
on that occasion that certain of the
young brokers believed that more
fun is a good thirg to promote.

By. SALLY SHARP.

Last night in the quiet of her draw
il.g-room. surrounded only by friends
of closest ties, lovely Marie Wells
plighted her troth to John Selby
Hanna.
In all the big West there's not a
fairer maid, nor tenderer. nor wittier,
and lucky is the chap who has won
her for himself-thrice lucky!
In her nuptial robe the bride was a
picture not soon forgot.
Her gown was a splendid affair OF
point lace over white satin, whose sill
very simmer was yelled with chiffon.
From her soft, brown hair fell a mass
OF tulle, held fast by the half wreath
of orange blossoms and at her throat
she wore a rope of pearls. White roses
rested upon her arm.
The piquant little sister of the bride,
Miss Juanita Wells, served as maid
OF honor, wearing an exquisite white
chiffon frock, gayly spangled; in her
hair she wore a half wreath of pink
roses, her bouquet matching them in
color. In all truth she was a pretty
thing, giving promise of being as great
a beauty as her sister.
Mrs. TruXtun Beale, cousin and
dearest friend of the bride, was ma
tron of honor. Herself a famous
Dtduly, IL WAS d 1dII lTlO lIldL SlOOo
beneath the nuDtial bower.
Mrs. Beale was gowned in white
silk. incrusted with rare old lace, and
carried Bridesmaid roses.
Mrs. Wells, mother of the bride,
wore an exquisite lace robe over white
satin. looking more the elder sister
of the bride than mother.
The bride was given into the keep
ing of the groom by her father, George
c. Wells.
Bishop Nichols read the impressive
Episcopal service.
The home of the bride was made
glad with a profusion of pink roses
and pink carnations, with masses OF
green's from the forest.
This morning Mr.. Hanna and his
bride will start for Southern Cal1for-
mia, to remain for two weeks.
After a short visit here with their
friends the happy pair will start for
Europe, going by way of the Straits
of Magellan.
The Old World is not new story
to Mr.. Hanna, who spent two years
after his graduation from the Univer-
sity of California in wandering about.
AS to the return of the travellers,
they will come only when fancy die
tates-and it may be many years ere
the well-beloved bride returns to us.
Meanwhile, may joys and blessings
attend them!

MEMBERS GIVE RECEPTION
TO REV. w. p. SULLIVAN
Bid Farewell on the Departure of the
Popular Priest From st.
ThereSa'S Church

The Immaculate Conception Sodality
OF ST. Theresa's parish gave a recep-
tion to Rev. Father w. P. Sullivan
last Friday evening. Father Sullivan
is about to leave ST. Theresa's in or
der to assume duties at st. Mary's
Cathedral. An elaborate programme
was arranged under the direction of
Miss jamie M. Quinn, containing selec-
tions by the Misses Coonan and the
Misses Bahrs. Frances and Eddie
Dougherty were clever in specialties,
and Miss Kannitz rendered a beautiful
vocal solo, accompanied by Miss May
Quinn.
After a short address by Miss Anna
Ward, president of the sodality, she
presented a handsome surplice and
stole to Father Sullivan as token of
the esteem in which he is held by the
members of the sodality. In few ap-
propriate words Father Sullivan re-
sponded.
Many well-known members of the
clergy and others were present at the
re reception. Among them were Rev.
Father O'Connell, pastor of st.
Tberesa's Church; Rev. Father Har-
rington, who will succeed Father Sui
livan; Rev. Father Stark of the Paul
list Church, Rev. Father Grant of ST.
Brigid's Church and Brothers Zeno-
phon and Timothy of Sacred Heart
College. Much disappointment was
expressed at the inability of Mrs Sui
livan, mother of Father Sullivan, to
attend the meeting, as she was con-
fired to her home by illness.
During the repast short addresses
were made by the clergymen and
others. At the conclusion the MEM
bers and guests bid farewell to the de-
parting priest and wished him the best
OK success in his new field of labor.
