DESERTED WIVES COMBINE
 TO GET BACK TREASURES
Especial from United Press.)

San Francisco, July 16.-"The desert- ed wives and bankrupt fiances relief corporation, unlinnited', might be a good title to use in incorpora ting the newest organization that has been formed in San Francisco. When Christian Johnson, alias Madison, the gay Lothario who combined business with pleasure in robbing every woman to whom he became engaged, was sent one of his dupes followed him to the prison gates and declared she still loved him and she was sure every other woman he had duped still loved him too. Alas and alack woman'S love is not so lasting as all that gro be faithful to one is good; to be faith full to many is great, was evidently Johnsons motto but his wives and fiances have adopted much better motto which is ''In union there is strength" Not that they have form ed real for sure union but they met in San Francisco last night and agreed ton.
 The women expressed the belief that Johnson had been of a most saving disposition and that the money. of which he robbed them. still is in a safe deposit vault awaiting JOhnson's pleasure So they incorporated and elected Mrs. Josephine Henninger of Oakland as their president and secured legal counsel. They will pool their interests and institute proceedings to secure Johnson's money and divide it among them. They will also seek to have Johnson tried on other charges of bigamy in an effort to keep him long CT in jail.

YOU'LL PAY LESS FOR IT AT KLINE's

word to me in careN of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, San Fran cisco, then I will try to prove myself worthy of their confidence and esteem by showing how easy it is for any one to walk from San Francisco to New York by direct route within 100 secular days.
 There are three very dear friends who energetically oppose this extra walk, but when I convince them that it is my only salvation, and that it would still keep me young and healthy know they will fall in with my plans.
 Meanwhile the only trouble have is an awful appetite.

By EDWARD PA4SON WEoION-
 San Francisco, Cal. July 15.-Hav- ins completed my walk from New york ytty to San Francisco last night, ana
 uioyed a restful sleep, I walked to the sost office building here this, morning and delivered to Postmaster F1ske or in my walk from Postmaster Morgan of New York city. I received a cor dial greeting from Postmaster F1ske and his subordinates.
 A pleasant incident of my arrival at Oakland last night was the hearty welcome and congratulations extended to me by officials and employees of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company This company did so much for me that I fail to find words to express my ap- preciation
 Reearding my feelings and condition I would say that I feel like uttering bitter words, but do not feel inclined to make excuses.
 have received hundreds of letters and telesrams congratulatfng me on my wonderful achievement, and each one makes me wish deserved 1t. Full of vigor and strength, I am disappoint- and frankly acknowledge that had It not been for the unbounded kindness or tfie officers and employees of the South ern Pacific Railroad Company, should not have dared to come further than Ogden.

I practically had the right of way the railroad, and every engineer footed the whistle on his engine as it passed 5ie me, of m ward of 40OO miles in 104 days and 5 hours. and while it exceeds the dis tance between New YorA and, San Francisco nearly 700 miles, and far ex- cells any previous record, yet tech nfealIy it is a failure, and do not feel inclined to close my public career with failure.
 The expenses of this walk were up- ward of S2 25OO. Some dozen prominent cities in the East have made offers to arrange for testimonial lectures on my return not only to help liquidate my financial loss, but to show that my object lesson in the journey, in striv- ing to elevate in popular esteem the exercise of walking. is appreciated.
