MRS. GUNN IS BITTER AGAINST HER HUSBAND Declares She Will Take the Stand Against Him if Necessary WANTS HIM PUNISHED Five Children Join in Denun- ciation of Their Run away Father Determined to get what satisfaction she can for the wrongs she has suf fered, Mrs. Margar«t Giinn. deserted wife of Captain William E. Gunn, who 'loped to Europe with his fascinating stenographer and now faces trial for bigamy in a New York court, will either go east to testify against her husband or make a deposition here ! which she hopes may aid In sending him to the penitentiary.

When Mrs. Gunn announced last night her intention to aid the prosecu tion of her husband she was sur rouded in her home at 3515 Point Lobos avenue by the five children the accused eloper left her to support. Thtre were three boys and two little girls, and all Joined their mother in condemning the father who had left them helpless when h* went to Xew York to Join the gov ernment transport service nine years ago. "We hope he gets 10 years In pris on." said William E. Gunn Jr.. who is nearing the voting age and helps sup port the family. "We are told that he ran away with that girl because ne made a bet that he could cut out all the other fellows who were 6hooting and punching each other about her.

He never did. Besides, he never sent us any money and«*f it had not been for I.ls brother, J. 08. Gunn of the Me chanics savings bank, we could hardly have fought off actual starvation. "Just after the earthquake he came Vj^ck to San Francisco. He then prom i^fc! me that he would, be more con 8l» rate of his marriage vows and aid "*is family. He pledged his word that he would give me $.50 a month. I have rever seen a cent. "1 am told that he has quit pretend- Ing and confessed that, he was a mar ried man and had deserted me. It-may He that they will not need my testi mony, but if they do I will be glad to do what I can — either in court there or in a deposition here — to send him to ."prison." "If ever a man deserved to wear stripes." ehe added, bitterly. "It Is Wil liam E. Gunn, dashing clufiman. gay Lothario, heart breaker— oh, that poor typewriter girl does not know what • a d&rling he is.' He was arrested too j soon."

Oct. 18. — Some of the \u25a0 men of the State university are trying to defeat the proposed plan of the women students to make two separate student bodies at the university. Oppo nents of the scheme believ* that If the women ehould have a separate stu dent body of their own they would gain too much power. The men. they contend, would have to support the student ac tivities while the women would- de rive an equal benefit with the men and yet not etand the expense. The committee which was appointed yesterday by President James Burke of the general student body will meet in a few days, and it is said that the meeting will te the occasion for the tnen on the committee to oppose the plans of the women and flatly refuse to be a party to any change of name for their organization. The coeds will be told that if they 'want & separate or ganization they will be classed as out siders and will not be allowed the benefits of the general student body.

Special Strike Meeting at Milwaukee OAKLAND, Oct. 18.— -A. W. Copps, deputy national president of the telegra phers' union, was elected today as a delegate to the special convention \u25a0vrhlch is to meet In Milwaukee on Octo ber 23. He will leave tomorrow for Milwaukee, and during his absence W. "W. McCandlish, president of local No. 34, will act as deputy national presi dent The business of the Milwaukee con vention will be to settle the contro versy between National President Small and the executive committee and jto devise means of conducting the S strike. Copps said tonight that many U»f the cities in the district west of the i Rocky mountains would send delegates to the convention and that he would hold proxies for the other locals. He also said that advices from these cities j indicated that the members were In fa s' vor of carrying out the strike In every pine of telegraphy If necessary to en i force the demands. This Is the view j taken by other leaders, President Mc- Candlish said tonight: "News received , this evening from the various locals In our jurisdiction, namely, Los Angeles, Portland, Seattle, Helena, Sacrarqento and Salt Lake, j were to the effect that all were in the I fight to stay and that in their respec | tive districts not one desertion had been reported since the beginning of the. strike, and that nothing wonld deter them until better pay and working con ditions were granted. With the assist ance of our railroad brothers this strika promises to develop important features and may paralyze the commercial in terests of the country. It seems in evitable that the government will be called up to take a h&nd. Prompt tele graphic communication in this aga is as Important to the financial Interests of this country as Is any branch of rail road operation and ,<even tne railway service itself is dependent upon the telegraph operator to move either pas sengers or freight." SMALL. DOWN AND OUT CHICAGO. Oct. 18.— Sylvester 'J. Small, the suspended president of the telegraphers' union, tonight announced his retirement from office and .from the union. He saicl:^ "I am down and out and will not make any further attempt to recover my position. I will look for a job next week." Gadski's Songs Are Sweet and Sad, but Hearers Miss Her Best Ones Walter B. Anthony Madame Gadski Bang some Robert Franz songs last night. Like tiny cameos they were, and her tones traced their outlines surely and beautifully. Bu| it Is doubtful If they were as much enjoyed as her Schubert songs, or her Schumann song's would have been If she had eung any. "Mother, O SJng Me to Rest," was one that she did with In effable sweetness and. sadness, depict ing the sorrow of the young Ufa that, when blighted, seeks comfort "from the niother heart again. Perhaps her best Franat song was the one which the en core brought. It was a Heine poem about songs which the lover sends to his mistress, but which c v «r return complaining that they cannot tell what they find in her heart. Gadski sang music in miniature and proved , her self mistress of the art of the lapl- I daxy as well as of the fresco painter. That ehe did not alnsr the Valkyrie's song or Mrs. Beach's "The Year's at the Spring." wasn't the fault of the audience, which encored her again and < again. However, she sang a Wagner lullaby which compen sated somewhat and gave several ! songs composed by her accom panist which were, well worth while. \ Her interpretation of Dvorak's "Songs My aiother Taught Me" was one of the best things she has done thus far. Its plaintive beauties, were poignantly pointed by the singer and her art was displayed— |f you <jare to think, about j art when ehe sings— »in her marvelous control over her softest tone*. They were resonant and pure and sweet; yet not larger than the tinkle of a \u25a0 tiny bell. She sings as one who agrees with De Reszke t,hat. singing is a "question of the nose." They are perfectly placed, incidentally, and perfectly beautiful primarily. » ; . "Elsay ' Dream," from Wagnqr's "Lohengrin," was the concluding num ber on the program, and- though siing; flawlessly a4ded no thrill In the ex perience of those .who ha.<S heard the same artist mount the skies on Isolde's love song from Wagner's "Tristan end Isolde." . •'\u25a0*.• "- \u25a0•\u25a0;; \u25a0; ..' : . '"\u25a0- "'. -\u25a0 ;\ Schubert's "Erl King" was one of the encores. Mme Gadski. sang, and as usual won wild applause. . ' t Frank La Forge, her accompanist, was warmly received , as of several songs which Mme. Gadski *ang, as .well as for hi?; playing of; Chopin's - Fantasia , In .

Oct 18.— College women were appealed to today by- the Rev. C. R. Brown of the First : Congreg ational church of Oakland' to ameliorate the present adverse conditions of mar riage. He talked this afternoon to one of the largest audiences of coeds tnat ever tilled Stiles hall and said that the educated women and men of today elevate the conditions of marriage and prevent divorces, which he character ized as peculiarly American. .The boarding houses and hotels were said by Rev. Mr. Brown to.'be.an'abnor* mal condition which worked against ! the integrity of .tha family. r He dd- ! clared that the standards of the Amerl- ! can youth in these: times of "nerves" ; were lower than in generatipna before, and said that" they put a check on mar- ! riage. He added: "The women of today are freer, than I ever before. They can go out now and secure work. They are thus placed in a position where they are not depend ent upon th« help of man. ' "Another fact that has to do with the marital problem is the nervous ness of the times. "There is the fast automobile, the'speeding railway train. All these tend to produce an abnormal condition In men and women/ This nervousness bears directly upon rriar riage^ \u25a0 : More publicity should be gjven to tnarriage. Ba,nns announcing • the apr proaching nuptials should be published, that everybody may know of the,lnten : tion of the contracting parties. "So called "trial" marriages of five years or less should be called by another name. "There are plenty. to choose from in the dictionary. It is large and has many word? which better fit tho real purpose of such unions. ' '• There should be uniform laws-of di vorce throughout the United States. The laws of the states as they now stand are conflicting, and the states should all have) uplform laws. : There, should be more publicity given to divorces. The Interlocutory decreo should be for a longer tlrqe. ; Th,s churches and' all Christian people should take a firmer stand in the "mat ter of reniarriage. It should " not be allowed only uhder certain cases. There must come an exaltation of marriage. This must come from tho women. Every college woman should^ make it her duty to preserve marrlas« i as sacred and help in; the uplifting of; the relations between man and woman. ; MINING MUSEUM LOOTED OF RICH GOLD SPECIMENS BERKELEY.

The Califor nia is also provided with a mascot arid one with a history. According to the navy records the mascot died .on' the Asiatic station, after having, been . sehr tenced to death by Commander Peters of tha cruiser Raleigh.^. The story has been told of how the order was carried out only }n a Pickwickian sense, of how _the ; splash made by' a chunk of coal was accepted by the offlceV of the deck as i evidence . of the goat'*- death, and of how the goat, with a dog and a rabbit, al6o under sentence of death, were hid den away in the Raleigh's coal Dunkers and * eared for ; by the cruiser's black squad. The taunts of tha Cincinnati's men emboldened the Raleigh conspira tors to produce their pets. Commander Peters was angry when he saw the goat on deck, but did not insist upon the mascot's execution and when the Raleigh went out of commission and the crew /*as transferred -to the Cali fornia, the bluejackets took the^goat with; them and Bill Butts, officially on earth for the second time, was unanl- " mously elected as the ship's mascot. Bill entered the 7»avy as mascot of the battleship Oregon' and was transferred to the Raleigh on the. Asiatic station when the Oregon was ordered home.
