WITH THE MINING MEN
Win Talk Over Grievances With Am

on March 18th to meet the members of

the grievances Of mining men against

gress is determined to fight for tn
removal of all restrictions which hin

penniless condition to learn, she says,
that her husband and the woman
claiming to be Mrs. Calder No. had
gone TO Salt Lake City on a visit. Wife
No. l took possession'of the house that
she and her spouse had occupied at
1404 Central avenue and last night had
every piece of furniture and other
goods she claimed moved from the
residence to Oakland, leaving nothing
in the dwelling but a bedroom set and
a few curtains, which Mrs. Calder No.
l says were installed by Mrs Calder
No. .. The first wife has placed her
tangled affairs in the hands of Attorney

is his wife journeyed to San Jose in
an automobile one night early this
year, and upon returning Calder i'm

had married again. it being under
stood by his acquaintances that he and
his first wife had been divorced.
Calder and his first wife were at

of Levi Strauss & Co. in San Francisco.
He then embarked in the insurance
business. Last July Calder associated
himself with Police Commissioner Al
Latham of this city in the publication
in San Francisco of the Western Elk,
which was formerly printed in Sacra-
mento. Calder assumed the business
management of the fraternal publica-
ton and still holds that position

: FOR SECOND TIME

Cattleman, Delayed by Youth,
Has Happy Sequel

ALAMEDA, Aug. 1S.-The second en-
gagement of Miss Mary Pond and Ed
ward Jones, the first having been sew
cred six years ago because of parental
objections, it was said, has been made
known to the close friends of the
young couple, and congratulations are
being showered upon them from all
sides. The wedding is planned for the
middle of October
Miss Pond is the daughter of DR.. and
Mrs. Henry May Pond and is a sister
of DIR. Chauncey Pond of this city. She
has long been favorite in the younger
social set.
The betrothal of the young people
is the cause of much romantic talk
about the tea tables in local society
which had almost forgotten the break
ing of the first engagement The match
was then thought to be an ideal one
but it is said that at that time there
was opposition to the proposed mar
riage from Jones family on the ground
that he was not financially equipped tc
support a wife.
Upon the death of his father young
Jones came in for a large share of his
sire's estate and is now rated as
wealthy. He is the owner of a large
cattle ranch in the southern part OF

HONOLULU Aug. 11.-United States
District Attorney Breckons is figuring
how he is going to bring condemna.

Uncle Sam for a few square yards of
rock that crop out in the Pacific off
the Kilauea point of the island of
Kauai, the government wanting the
aforesaid rocks upon which to build
one of the biggest lighthouses of the
islands.
Breckons has searched the archives
and the title Offices and can find no
record of the islet ever having been
owned by any one, but the United
States will not go ahead with any
building with only squatters right
to protect itself.
To add to the district attorneys
troubles, the bunch of rocks has no
name, either official or local. The gov
ernment maps content themselves with
showing a dot in the blue to locate
the desired lighthouse site. 1t is like
ly, therefore that Breckons will have
to christen the rocks in order to have
some title whereby he can attach them

brought in the name of Uncle Sam,

NEW YORK, Aug 1S.-The Postal
telegraph company on August in
augurated new and improved methods
in it's general service between inn
portant cities and towns. This new
service is called special rush service"
and has proved a revelation in the
rapidity with which messages and ans
wers thereto are exchanged between all
points. including Pacific coast cities. A
system of the most rigid supervision
is employed from the time a message is
signaled for by call box. or handed in
at a Postal Office, until it is delivered
to the addressee. Every second pos
sible is saved in the various channels
through which a message passes.
The improved methods in expediting
the traffic over the wires has reduced
the time of transit so that now patrons
may receive answers from Chicago,
Seattle, Portland, Los Angeles, Boston,
st. Louis, Denver, San Francisco, New
Orleans and other principal points in
less than 80 minutes after messenger
has been signaled to take the message.
for the transit of every message in the
operating, delivery, clerks and mes
sengers departments. Failure TO keep
within this limit is sharply checked
up on each message.
Messengers receive extra pay for the
uSihfSIy anu coileclioL Oh every mes
sage within the time allowed for the
service. All employees of the Postal
telegraph company from managers to
operators, clerks and messengers are
enthusiastically and efficiently CO.
operating in maintaining this fastest
telegraph service in the world" The
average elapsed time for instance, from
the time a messenger is called in New
York to delivery to addressee in
Chicago is 15 minutes. In cases where
the distance from. office to addressee is
short messages are more frequently de-
livered in less than Is minutes.
