The taking of evidence In the suit of
Thomas Duffy, Involving $900,000, brought
by him several months ago against Jafet
Lindeberg, an owner of mining properties
in Alaska, will begin in Judge Graham's
court to-day before a jury. The twelve
men who are to pass upon the merits of
the case and who were impaneled yes
terday are Robert Broad, W. H« Nason,
W. J. Gilbert, J. H. McCloskey, Paul

Attorney J. C. Campbell represents
Lindeberg and George D. Collins is the
attorney for Duffy. In the opening state
ment made by Collins yesterday he said
that his client was entitled to recover
by right of interest in the claims claimed
by the defendant.
Campbell in opening his case said that
he would prove that Duffy was not en
titled to any of the yield of the claims
because his client possessed a deed made
by Duffy giving to him all his interest
In the properties. The deed, according
to Campbell, is a release of all the plain
tiff's claims for the sum of $20,000.

Twelve Men Selected to Adjudicate
JURY WILL DETERMINE
MERITS OF DUFFY'S SUIT
Ethel Ross, the little heiress, Is just 15
years old and unusually pretty. The fam
ily was preparing to move to 312 Elizabeth
street when they heard the joyful tid
ings. They did not expect to hear from
the case for several months yet and were
pleasantly surprised at the information
that the fortune had at last come to the
child. She has Just finished a course at
the James Lick Grammar School. She Is
very fond of music and states that she
will now cultivate her taste in that di
rection. •
The opinion is written by Justice Lori
gan, with whom Justices Henshaw and
McFarland concur. The property belong
ing to the estate of Robs Is on Third
street, between Market and Mission, and
on the lower part of Eddy street.
The two daughters of Joseph Ross Sr.
argued that the granddaughter had ap
peared in the matter at too late a date.
The Supreme Court agrees with the lower
tribunal that it is not justice to apply
too strlngest rules In cases like the one
at bar and that a mere technicality
should not deprive the little girl of her
fortune. John, the second son, is not af
fected by the decision, but otherwise Jo
seph Ross might just an well have died
Intestate according to the decision of the
court.
The court holds that the will of the
elder Ross has no bearing on the case of
the minor litigant. The capitalist sup
posed that his son was still living and did
not know that he had been married. He
knew nothing of the existence of his
granddaughter and erred In not recogniz
ing the possibility that his son might
have an heir. The court holds that the
little girl had a claim on the estate and
the fact that her deceased father had
been bequeathed $10 was of no Import
from a legal standpoint.
Mrs. Jansen and her daughter never
had any idea that they were entitled to
any part of the rich estate until some one
told the mother that the little girl had
a claim to a fortune. Two months after
the Issuance of the decree of distribution
a petition in behalf of Ethel Ross was
filed at the County Clerk's office request
ing that the previous order be annulled.
The court granted the petition In spite
of the protests of the executors of the
estate and the beneficiaries of the will and
when the case had been heard declared
that the child was the rightful owner of
one-third of the property left by Joseph
Ross, the father. An appeal was taken
to the Supreme Court by the- litigants.
Meanwhile the Jansens and the little
girl continued to live in straitened cir
cumstances, but hopeful of some, 1 time
coming into possession of the property in
litigation. The case has been before the
Supreme Court for about two years.
CHILD'S CLAIM IS LEGAL.
Finally the mother had herself declared
a widow by the courts and subsequently
was quietly wedded to Carl Jansen. She
kept the little girl with her always. Jo
seph Ross passed out of this life October
22, 1808. On March 12 of the same year
he had made a will In which he devised
his fortune to his daughters. He pro
vided that his sons, Joseph and John,
ehould each received $10 and expressly
elated that they should get nothing more.
The will was offered for probate by the
executors and the court issued a decree of
distribution on October 20, 1899.
MOTHER MARRIES AGAIN.
Little Ethel Ross of 1123 Sanchez street
did not have a penny she could call her
own yesterday morning. Yesterday after
noon the Supreme Court declared she was
the rightful owner of San Francisco real
estate worth more than $50,000. Her
mother is married to Carl Jansen, who
has been struggling hard for several
years to make a living in the city's
tailoring shops. The family will soon be
placed in a position of affluence. Tester
day they were wild with joy when they
learned of the decision of the Justices of
the State's highest tribunal.
It all happentd through a mistake on
the part of Joseph Ross, who died in this
city five years ago. Deceased was pos
sessed of a fortune worth a trifle more
than 5150,000. He had tw.o sons and two
daughters. He became tptranged from
the boys and cut them off with a pittance.
Ross, however, did not know that one of
them had been married and had a daugh
ter. On that account the little, dark-eyed
girl is an heiress.
Joseph came to San Francisco a poor
man many decades ago. By dint of hard
work and an occasional bit of good for
tune he became the possessor of much
valuable real estate in the heart of the
city. His sons, Joseph and John, disap
pointed him and he set them adrift. •
Joseph married the present Mrs. Jan-
Ben in 1887. A year later he went to the
State of Washington for his health. For
eight months he wrote frequent endearing
letters to his wife and then he was lost
eight of. Diligent inquiry on the part of
the wife failed to reveal anything in re
gard to his fate'and after several years
he was given up for dead. The little girl,
Ethel, was born shortly after his depar
ture for the north.
Judge Kerrigan annulled the marriage
of Ada Johnson to John R. Melburn. She
complained that after she became his wife
she learned that he had a wife in Swe
den from whom he had never been di
vorced. Divorces were granted to Augus
ta Miller from John D. Miller for deser
tion, Lucy A. TUli from Carlo Tilll for
desertion and Richard F. Dawson from
Elizabeth Dawson for infidelity.
Mrs. McNeil charges in her complaint
that McNeil, on the very day of their
marriage, March 17 of this year, gave her
a cruel beating. He used his fists and
his feet, she says, and cursed her between
blows and kicks. This performance, she
says, was repeated on May 24 and again
on June 7. On June 13, she says, he again
beat her in a most brutal manner, wind-
Ing up the affray by firing two 6hots at
her.
Though Annie McNeil has been a wife
for less than half a year, she is already
of the opinion that she prefers a life of
single blessedness to that of a matron.
In accordance with this belief she filed a
suit for divorce against George McNeil.
She charges him with cruelty and says
that from a few hours after the wedding
up to a few days ago he treated her in
humanly. She says that he has been so
brutal to her that a few days ago she
came to the conclusion that if she contin
ued to live with him her life would be
endangered, and left him.
PBEFEBS SINGLE LIFE.
In a cross complaint filed by Peter
Mitchell in the divorce proceedings
brought by Therese j Mitchell he accuses
her of being a cruel wife. He says also
that she is an unfaithful one and 'addicted
to the excessive use of intoxicants. He
charges that because of her love * for
liquor she has neglected her 15-months-old
child and has so managed or neglected to
manage her household that he has had to
very frequently prepare his own meals
and do the family washing.
A suit for divorce on the ground of fail
ure to provide was filed by Anne A.
Northrop against Melton Northrop.
An amended complaint for divorce was
filed by Amber Wllkerson, leading lady at
Fischer's Theater, against Ira Puerl Wil
kerson. The amendment consists of tech
nical changes in the original complaint
and was filed with the consent of the de
fendant.
Frieda Magee, who on October 12, 1901,
was married to Roger D. Magee Jr., the
son of Rodger D. Magee, is seeking a di
vorce on the ground of extreme cruelty.
In her complaint she alleges that two
months after she became Mrs. Magee her
husband cruelly beat her and that in the
months of January, March and October of
last year he did likewise. He also chas
tised her in a most strenuous manner, she
says, at least once during every month
from October, 1902, to August of this
year, when she left him. She says that
three times during their married life she
grew tired of her husband's alleged brutal
ity and left him, returning to him on two
occasions on the strength of his promise
to treat her decently. When she became
Mrs. Magee she was a Miss Schnibbe.
She was only 18 years of age and her hus
band was 22.
Josephine MacDonald, who is being
sued for divorce on the ground of cruelty,
answered her husband's complaint yester
day with a general denial of all his
charges, except that In which he accuses
her of filing an affidavit with the of
ficers of Hesperian Parlor, Native Sons
of the Golden West, in which she charged
her husband with being a drunkard and
a loafer and an associate of the lowest of
the low. She admits the truth of this
charge. With her answer Mrs. MacDon
ald filed a petition for alimony pending
the suit. She says she is penniless, lack
ing even funds to defend herself against
her husband's charges. An order was is
sued directing young MacDonald to ap
pear before Judge Sloss Friday next and
show cause why he should not be com
pelled to furnish his wife with funds to
defray the cost of defending his suit and
to enable her to subsist without appealing
to the charity of relatives and friends.
DOES HIS OWN WASHING.
It may also have been brought about by
a knowiedge, mutually possessed, that
when a wife leaves a husband, or vice
versa, a year roust elapse before an ac
tion for divorce can be brought. At any
rate shortly after IX o'clock yesterd*ay
morning an action for divorce was filed
with Mrs. Beatrice Otway as plaintiff
and Michael Otway defendant. The
charge was desertion. Two hours later
the name of Otway was again placed on
the slip in the County Clerk's office con-l
tainlng the names of mlsmated couples
who desired freedom from matrimonial
bonds. In the second action, however,
the husband was the plaintiff, though the
charge was the same. It now remains for
the court to determine which of the Ot
ways Is guilty of desertion.
SAYS MAGEE IS BRUTAL.
It sometimes happens, and it is a pop
ular idea, that marriage is ths bringing
together bf two souls with but a single
thought. The marriage of Beatrice and
Michael Qtway is an instance. They
were married in May of last year, but It
was not until yesterday that they dis
covered that their minds were running
in the same strain. Perhaps the fact that
they separated just a year ago yesterday
had something to do with their oneness
of mind.

Two-thirds of the inmates of our hospitals are women. They are in most cases either for treatment
or for an operation, made necessary by advanced stages of female troubles which have resulted in ovaritis^
a tumor, or displacement of the womb.
"AN OPERATION NECESSARY."
Hott these words after the examination strike terror to a woman's soul, and with what regrets sna
hears them, when she considers that the operation has become necessary through her own neglect. Femala
derangements cannot cure themselves, and neglecting the warnings of nature only means putting it off until
there is no cure. The woman who lets her trouble make headway pays the penalty of a dangerous opera-
tion and a lifetime of impaired usefulness at the best, and the operation often proves fatal when her life
might have been saved by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
When women are troubled with irregular, suppressed or painful menstru-
ation, weakness, leucorrhoea, displacement or ulceration of the womb, that
bearing down feeling, inflammation of the ovaries, backache, bloating (or flatu-
lence), general debility, indigestion and nervous prostration ; or are beset with
such symptoms as dizziness, faintness, lassitude, excitability, irritability, ner-
vousness, sleeplessness, melancholy, and " want-to-be-left-alone " feelings, and
the blues, they should remember that there is one tried and never-failing
remedy; Lydia E. Pinkham's Compound at once removes such troubles.
READ THE FOLLOWING LETTERS.
•Dear Mrs. Pinkham: — I cannot tell you how much good you have done me and how thankful I
am to you for it. For five years I have not been free from pain for a day. I have had backaches, headaches,
and those awful dragging sensations with leucorrhcea, and when menstruation appeared I was in such a
condition I could hardly sit up. I doctored all the tune, but nothing helped me, and I was told that an
operation was necessary.
" Two months ago a friend suggested that I try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. No
one knows what it has done for me and how thankful I am for it. It brought me the first well days I have
had for five years. It did for me what doctors could not do, and I want every suffering woman to know
about it."— Louise Katjeb, 761 E. 166th St., New York City. . «
"Dear Mrs. Pink ham: — I wish to thank you for whafc Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
has done for me. I had terrible hemorrhages/being lacerated from the birth of my child. The doctor told
me that if I would have an operation I would be well and strong. I submitted to it, but was worse than
before : no one knows what I suffered. Finally a friend advised me to try your Vegetable Compound ; I did
so, and commenced to feel better ; I continued its use, and it has done for me what doctors could not do. I
am strong and well If women with any kind of female troubles would- only consult you before submitting
to an operation they would be spared many hours of pain and suffering. I cannot thank you enough for
what you have done for me. w — Anna Kirchhoff, 156 E. 100th St., New York City.
