WRONGED WIFE GETS
TELLTALE PICTURE
Secures Photograph of Husband
and Mrs. L. K. Emory,
Whom She Shot

Another chapter in the domestic
vagaries of Attorney James w. Coch-
rane. whose wife surprised him with
his affinity. Mrs. l.. K. Emory, in a
Richmond district restaurant last Tues
day evening and shot the woman. was
made public yesterday when it became
known that the wronged wife had Sc
cured photograph of Cochrane and
Mrs. Emory. taken in company with
the Iatter's little daughter at a gallery
in Stockton. The photograph was Sc
cured by the detectives who for the
last year, at Mrs. Cochrane's behest,
had trailed her husband and the/woman
city and elsewhere.
The occasion upon which Cochrane so
fearlessly confided to the camera the
evidence of his partiality for the
woman for whom he had secured a di-
vorce from her convict husband was
visit which he made with her and her
daughter to Stockton in May. 1907 The
register of the Yosemite hotel in that
city shows that "P. j. Cochrane and
wife of Sacramento" were among the
guests May 2. 1907. The hotel manage
ment is not willing to assert that "P
J. Cochrane in reality was Attorney J.
w. Cochrane.
The photograph of Cochrane. Mrs.
Emory and her daughter, however. was
taken at the Logan gallery in Stock
ton May 3. 1907. Copies were for
warded by the photographer to Mrs
L. K. Emory, 11O1 O'Farrer street. San
Francisco.
According to a statement made by
the photographer yesterday. detec-
tive from this city visited the gallery
few months later, and. through the
subterfuge that Cochrane was wanted
for embezzlement. the sleuth secured
copy of the photograph. This copy.
it is stated. is the one which was de-
livered to Mrs. Cochrane as proof OF
her husbands attentions to the Emory
woman.
Mrs. Emory. the victim of the
-wrenged wffe's wrath. is resting COM
fortably at the ST. Francis hospital,
while friends of Mrs. Cochrane declare
that for the sake of her children she
has once more forgiven her erring
husband. 1t Is believed that Mrs. En-
ory will not prosecute the case.

PLANS PERF[CTING
FOR new TIVOLI
doc" Leahy to Erect Play
house on Old Eddy
Street Site

Doc" Leahy, manager of the old
Tivoli opera house in the days before
the big fire. one time police commits.
sioner and San Francisco's only inn
presario, has nearly perfected his plans
for new Tivoli. whicb<will rise on the
site of the city's former pet and pride
in Eddy street.
Architect Newton j. Tharp, who
Joseph d. Redding says. looks like
Caesar, estimates that the new hall of
justice will be completed in just IL
months. THE moment the police de-
partment is out of Eddy street" said
Leahy yesterday, work on the new
Tivoli will Begin
Leahy has been planning this new
enterprise for nearly two years. He
has secured one bit of ground after an
other adjoining the site of the original
Tivoli until he has a lot $50 feet deep
and of ample width for one of the
largest opera houses in the west. A
part of the building will be 10 stories
uISll anu utleQ up LOT SuIHpluOuS DaCn-
elor apartments with hammam baths
and all the newest Improvements. An
immense cafe will occupy the front of
the building on the ground floor, and
the opera house itself will be built to
seat $500 people. There will be one
balcony, under which will hang A.
boxes On the roof will be a beau
tiful garden modelled on the one that
topped the old Tivoli, but brought up
to date. Smoking and lounging rooms
will be provided after the manner of
the best London theaters.
Leahy says the entertainment to be
offered will be almost exactly like the
performances that used to be so popu-
lar in Eddy street. 1t will be comic
opera with new Hartmans and Oracle
Plaisteds and Annie Meyers and Anna
LIGHTERS, and all. for rs cents. There
will be season of grand opera every
winter for 81. There will be every
thing just as it was in yesteryear ex-
cept the walters with the beer. That is
to be served only in the cafe and on the
roof There will be a chorus that will
remind old timers of the days of Alice
Nielsen It will furnish good music
the. year around. and possibly some
wives for the city's first families.

Big Fortune Was Offered

In July, 1906, Cramer's wife noticed
an advertisement in a local paper tell
ing of the big fortune that could be
made by an ''enterprising businessmen.
with capital" who was willing to back
world beating tighter one who
eclipsed James j. Jeffries and made
John l.. Sullivan look ike a moliycod-
die
Cramer answered the advertisement
and was persuaded by two men, one of
whom was supposed to be the world
beater and his trainer, to go up to
Seattle and take $4,000 to bet against
second rate fighter who was going to
LAY down to the world beater and
thus afford Cramer chance to win
much money from certain men waiting
in Seattle who would back the dub"
Cramer took E. r. C9ute, his former
book keeper, with him at his wifes
suggestion the idea being that Clute
would protect his friend if the game
looked crooked.
World Beater Has Fit
once in Seattle they met the other
lighters hackers. and Cramer wagered
his $4,000 on the world beater,- who
when in the ring lowered far above his
| small opponent But alas for Cramers s
banlxroll, his man evidently was not in
good physical condition, for after the
fight had gone along a few minutes
the world beater had fit. He frothed
at the mouth, and with blanched faces
the small mans hackers came to
cramer and warned him to flee, as his
man was near death, and Cramer and
Cute in danger Of arrest. They were
each given $50 to get out of town.
Cramer said last night that when he
realized the fraud he felt as sick as
| the world beaten who for share
in cramer's $4,000 had chewed soap
and frothed at the mouth like dog
with the hydrophobia.
Protector Found Wanting
Clute. the protector. said cramer last
night was found wanting. He was a
protector who did not protect. Until a
short time ago Clute ran the Pacific
Union hotel here.
Il would have been killed had
opened my mouth, said Cramer last
night, and 1 was glad to get away
alive.
The men came to San Francisco
about three months ago and, although
we are no longer friends. -Clute called
me UP and informed me. He wanted
me to have them arrested. but 1
dreaded the notoriety."

and said he had been told that Matt

trainer of Doctor Roller. the wrestler.

Errors Cause Wrath

Brenner. in his own defense made
no denial of the sensational charges
filed against him. On the contrary. he
sought rather to vindicate his conduct.
The faults which the girls committed
as to arouse the wrath of Brenner
were trifing errors in the recitation
of their grammar lessons When asked
concerning the matter Brenner simply
said:
Il gave the girls ample time in
which to prepare their lessons. and
warned them of the penalty that
would impose il they failed to learn
the lessons assigned. They failed to
comply with the instruction and the
penalty was imposed"
But the parents do not take the easy.
matter of fact view of the case which
Brenner does. They are thoroughly
angered over the act.
]. E. Damont, father of Miss AIverna
Damont. is perhaps the angriest The
mere thought of whipping young ladies
the size OF my daughter is outrageous
said Damont The public school is no
place for such a man. / will use every
effort TO have him put out OF the school
department. 1 don't care what my
daughters offense was I understand
she did not have her grammar lesson.
What is a grammar lesson to the indig-
nifty which this fellow inflicted upon
her? The man who would raise a hand
against girl or a woman has no bust
ness in the school department"
Grammar Caused the Trouble
According to the report that carse
from the schoolroom today the teacher
has been having difficulty in teaching
formal rules of grammar to his pupils.
He charged the class with Indifference
and vowed that if the lessons were not
better learned he would use corporal
punishment.
The threats made by Bremen did not
stimulate interest in grammar to the
vice principals satisfaction. and when
the class met this morning and he
found that several OF the girl pupils
were deficient in their lessons he showed
that he was greatly incensed. Then he
carried out his threat. the girls declare.
The indignity Of the punishment. the
anger Of the teacher, the mere fact that
man. even one. in a superior and dis
cipIinary position. should raise his
hand against girl, which. according
to Damont and others. was done by
Brenner. has opened volcanic crater
on the edge of Brenner's job. and the
fathers of the offended girls are deter
mined that Brenner will be toppled over
into the Oblivion OF dismissal from his
place
