In five minutes the correspondents
who had gone seeking interviews had
their coats off and were being ordered
about the task OF dismantIing the place
By Miss Emery. She accepted the situ-
alton with the utmost GOO. humor.
All the friends have flown" said she
once The change in the condition OF
life seemed to change the attitude cf
the naother and daughter. The former,
once the dominant feature OF the house
hold. was in the background. The
daughter ruled.
That the two were IN sore stats for
money was evident. The furniture was
sold for a song TO one or two persons,
and the first act OF the daughter on ar
riving in San Francisco was to seek an
order for work at a newspaper Office.
From early morning tn the very
last moment the girl worked with an
energy and strength surprising in one
so slender and delicate. And as she
worked she answered the questions put
10 her. She did not try to hide any
thing or give eVasive answers. She
went into the subject fully. met argu-
ment with shrewd argument and in
oicated by her answers an intellect con
siderably above the average.
Discusses Situation
Il an willing to discuss the situa-
ton with you" she said. IF you have
any arguments 1 would like TO hear
them. think I am right"
Despite the labors Of the day and
the strain and worry Of facing the
mob, Miss Emery's energy did not seem
70 diminish. Within half an hour after
her arrival In San Francisco she had
secured an order for a newspaper story
and as the train pulled out for Sacra-
mento she bent her head over a tablet
OF paper and proceeded to write as
fast as her pencil would travel over
the paper.
During all the trying hours AOki was
not TO be seen. It was rumored that
he had secretly visited the Emery
home on the night before. but that was
denied by the two women. The man
for whom the women had given up
their all was not on hand when needed
most This fact was mentioned to Miss
Emery.
1T would be foolish for him to come
here at this time" she said On an
other occasion she was asked whether
Aokis love was sincere and true, and
whether he would not have shown
greater affection and regard for her
by refusing 10 accept the sacrifices the
two were making for him.
The sacrifices are nothing" said
Miss Emery. Consider the happiness
he has brought to me by declaring his
d.
me unhappy He viewed the question
in sane light"
Tells Books Goodby
The most pathetic part of the leave
taking OF the home was when the girl.
with a sob in her voice. started to
tell her books goodbye"
The women left COrte MADEIRA at
D. 5.s5 p. ~. and arrived in San Francisco
late in the evening. They We're met at
the ferry depot by Bishop Nichols sec
retary and after a short stay in the
city crossed the bay to Oakland and
boarded the train for Sacramento. They
endeavOred 10 keep secret their desti-
nation. but it became known before
very long. It was at first thought that
AOki would meet them in Oakland, but
he failed 10 do so. That Aoki is con-
templaung journey was shown by the
fact Of him recently purchasing a new
travelling trunk. and the expectations
are that he viii join the .Emerys at
. Sacramento.
Archdeacon Emery did not come near
his wife and daughter yesterday. He
was not present at Corte MADEIRA when
they faced the crowd and was not on
hand TO greet them in San Francisco.

wish 10 say a few words in your paper.
Ny sentiments are against the conduct
Of Mrs Emery and her daughter.
Why should Mrs. Emery call US the
scum Of tire earth2" She evidently
did not think so when she was domi-
neerlmg over our church here for the
last few years. She ruled the guild and
rather than oppose her Chose that did
not resign gave IN to her for the
sake Of peace. Now she calls US the
I suppose she includes all Califor-
mans.
The archdeacon was a cowboy in
20 former years, and has said so with
pride. Who raised his salary from
year TO year so that now he is able
70 supply funds for the marriage of
the dlshwasher and his daughter, but
the diocese OF the Episcopal church
composed OF CalifOrnians. of course
who now are the scum OF the earth" /?

i have lived here in Corte MADEIRA
