CATARRHAL TROUBLES PREVALENT
Spring Months Cause Catarrh Breathe
CIV. hyomei, and be Cured


Catarrhal troubles are more COM
mon at this season than at any other
time of the year The sudden chang
es that come during the spring
months are productive Of many cases
of catarrh that without proper treat
ment will become chronic.
The pleasAntest, most convenient,
and only scientific method for the
treatment and cure Of cstarrh, is
Hyomei. Simply put twenty drops in
the little pocket inhealer that comes
with every outfit, and then breathe
it for three minutes four times a day.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but one dollar, and as the inhealel
will last life time and there is suf.
ficIent Hyomei for several weeks
treatment, it is the most economical
catarrhal remedy known. Extra bot
ties can be procured for fifty cents.
Ask Mitchell s Egbers to show you
the strong guarantee under which
they sell Hyomei.

REPORT CAUSES
HEATED DEBATE
Supervisors Engage in Word
War Over an Order Rela-
tive to Street Sweeping

The Board of Supervisors held a
rather heated session yesterday when
it took up consideration of the re-
port of the Street Committee directing
the Auditor TO audit bills for the
sweeping of streets only to such an
amount as will leave a balance of
$53,750, or one-fourth of the total ap-
preparation of s215.000 for the work
during April, May and June, when
the streets are in more urgent need
or cleaning. The committee reported
a deficit of more than $4,000 in the
fund, which will have to be made up
to enable the Auditor to set aside
S53,750 for the last three months of
this fiscal year. Boxton argued that
sufficient money had not been allowed
ia the budget for cleaning streets and
the deficit was due to the fact that
the one-twelfth act was not complied
with according to prevailing custom.
II do not see the use of presenting
such a report" said Boxton, unless
it is intended to cast a blct on some
one. Other departments have exceed
ed the one-twelfth act in expenditures
of funds, yet nothing was said about
it."
In answer to Eggers' charge that
due economy had not been practiced,
Rea and Finn defended the Board of
Works. saying that the cost of street
sweeping had increased owing to the
wages of laborers having been raised
from So % to 50 SO per day.
Braunhart scored the Board of
rry~ q
civil service provisions in the sweep
ing of streets. He added that bills al
ready incurred for $4,000 had not yet
been presented to the board and asked
the Mayor to investigate the entire
matter at the same time handing his
Honor a statement of the expenditures
and the condition of the fund.
There were so many demands made
for funds by the various departments"
said D'Ancona, that the Finance
Committee was compelled to call a
halt. 1t would seem that at one time
the Police Department was the only
one to get what it wanted and it
looked as If Chief Whitman with his
Supervisor on the Police Committee
had the Supervisors handcuffed."
Boxton, who is chairman of the
Police Committee, hotly resented this
allusion, which was meant for him,
saying: IF Supervisor D'Ancona wants
to mix it I will mix it with him and
hand it back with interest. He has
accused me of trickery and / deny it."
D'Ancons. disclaimed accusing Box
ton of trickery and also denied that
the compilation Of the municipal bud
get had been effected with the as
sistance of down town merchants.
saying, however, that if such had been
the case the course could only be
commended.
Boxton afterward said he apologized
If he had said anything to hurt the
Finance Committee or any Supervisor
and the board thereupon referred the
report back to the Street Committee
for further inquiry as to the operations

BITTER FIGHT
over ESTATE
Children by Different Wives
at War for Property of
Late J. Alexander Yoell

The contest to break the will of j.
Alexander Yoell. the Santa Clara pio-
neer who died on July Is, 1904, is on in
Judge Kerrigan's court. A jury was
impaneled yesterday to try what prom
ises to be a long and bitter fight. On
one side are children of Yoell's first
wife, who, by terms of the will, re-
ceived the greater part of the estate;
on the other are children by second
wife, who feel that they have been un-
duly slighted.
The contestants are Gertrude Ellen
Yoell, Beatrice Ellen Yoell and Emily
+. Dunn. BY the terms of the pioneers 8
will they are to receive $4,000 apiece.
To the executrix of the WILL Mrs. Eva
line Amelia Levy, and her sisters, Mrs.
Nettie Caroline Theobald and Miss
Alice Virginia Yoell. all children of
the first wife, are left the largest por-
tions of the estate.
The will is contested on the ground
that the testator was not of sound
mind when the will was drawn up; also
that he possessed certain impressions
with reference to some Of his children
which were not founded on fact" Many
lawyers are involved. On the side of
the proponents are d. M. .DeImas, H.
c. McPike and Carl Westerfleld. The
contestants are represented by Bishop,
Wheeler & Hoeffler and ex-Judge
Slack.
The estate Is now valued at about
$250, 0,o00 Just before he separated from
his second wife, with whom he had
lived forty years, Yoell decided half his
property to her. The remainder, over
which the contest is being waged, con-
sists of property in this city valued at
about $3.50, 900; San Jose property val
ued at $4,000, and personal property val
ued at over $4,000. Various Catholic
charitable institutions receive small
legacies under the will.
Sensational developments are prom
ised, as it is alleged that Yoell once
thought his daughter Beatrice was in
q plot to poison him and that he was
suspicious of the children of his second
wife. The case will open at 1890 this
morning.

growing out of deals in real estate.
Mr.. Buckbee says also that reputable
dealers in real estate in this city share
in his view of the matter. ''It is per-
haps harsh term to use," he said
yesterday, 'but the proposed law could
be used to promote blackmail''

by both houses of the Legislature two
years ago but It was vetoed by the

Arrests Are Made Is Unconstitu-

Seventy-nine of the women arrested
at $40 Jackson street and 1929 Du-
pont street during the raid by men,
bers of the Grand Jury and deputy
sheriffs on Thursday night were sur
rendered yesterday morning. Appli-
cations for writs of habeas corpus
were made before Judge Cook for the
release of the women and the Judge
made the writs returnable forthwith.
About the noon hour the women
were taken from the City Prison to
Judge Cooks court, where Attorney
Henry Ach, who represented them, ar
gued that the ordinance under which
they were arrested was unconstitu-
tionaI. He also said that they had
been held on unreasonable bail by
Police Judge Fritz, $500 for being an
inmate of a house of i'll fame and 500
for being a visitor. He asked that the
bail on the writ be fixed at the usual
amount, $50 or $40.
The Judge said it was a question
with him as to whether the ordinance
was valid. 1t was, he thought, SIM
liar case to one he had before him
two or three years ago. He reduced
the bail to $50 cash in each case, and
continued the argument till this aft

Father and da1ghter accusing each
other of perjury, and husband and
wife telling opposite versions of one
story, enlivened the afternoon session
in Judge Graham's court yesterday,
and will be continued to-day in the
matter of the suit of Jane C. Vincent
against William Vincent for separate

Mrs. Vincent says her husband de-
serted her and that there was another
woman in the case. Mr.. Vincent says
she deserted him, and that there is not
another" although he admits having
furnished house for stenographer
in Oakland and hired a room for him
self in the dwelling. Mrs. Vincent
says that her husbands attorney,
George w. Averill, called upon her and
:. offered her deed to property in Oak
land if she would not oppose his suit
for divorce. She declined. One of the
, daughters, May Vincent, corroborated
the story and said that she was work
ing and giving all Of her earnings to
her mother, which the court declared
TO be most commendable. Attorney
Ferinan, representing the wife, asked
Vincent il he had not taken out
marriage license under the name of
Johnson, changing it to Vincent when
he came before the priest. Vincent
denied 1t.
