BRUGUIERE'S RING
MAY REGAIN WIFE
Pretty Little Speech in Court
Likely to Lead to a Rec-
Jewelry Taken by Debtor Pur
chased by S. M. Short*
ridge and Returned
A little finger ring and Samuel M.
Shortridge, the attorney, promise to be
the Intermediaries In the reconciliation
of Mrs. Vesta Shortridge Brugulere and
Emile Bruguiere — if there is to be a
reconciliation of the clubman, com
poser, wine agent and society man and
his beautiful wife, who is Shortridge's
niece. The little ring was the theme
of a romantic speech delivered by the
poetical Bruguiere when he was up be
fore Justice of the Peace Lawspn to
explain his debts.
It was in February that Bruguiere's
debtors haled him into court to make
an accounting of his assets.
Bruguiere recited that he had no
financial resources.
The attorney for the collection
agency glanced at the well manicured
hands of the witness and commented
on his rings.
"You have valuable jewelry — rings,"
he said.
ROMANCE OF A lIIJfG
Brugulere languidly raised his hand
and indicated the large ring, set with
a red stone. "That ring," he said, ear
nestly, "was given to me ; by a sweet
little girl long, long ago, whom I have
thought of many times, and I cherish
it on account of the many fond mem
ories that surround it."
It was a pretty, romantic little speech
and would havi? made a great hit at
the Saturday matinee at the Alcazar,
but it didn't draw any tears from the
eyes of the collection agency's flinty
attorney.
"Off with the rings," he declared per
emptorily, and off" came the rings.
Shortridce heard of the plight of his
favorite niece's divorced husband, and
learned that the ring about which Bru
guiere was so solicitous was one given
him by Vesta Shortridge on his birth
day during the period of their betrothal.
Another ring which Brugruiere had
worn into court was a small diamond
ring, said to have also been a present
from his former wife.
itETUH.vrcn ny shortridge:
Shortridge had .always liked his
; nephew in law, and' when the_ sheriff's
sale was held to dispose of the~property
; Shortridge had an agent at the sale,
! and the two rings, the birthday stone
' of romantic associations and the other
i ring, were purchased by Shortridge for
• |26. Shortridge then sent them back to
i Bruguiere with his compliments.
The rumors of a reconciliation be
tween Brugulere and Shortrldge"s niece
have come fast recently. Brugulere is
In Paris at his mother's chateau. Mrs.
Bruguiere and her son spend their
time in California between San Fran
cf.«co and Monterey.
It .is rumored that Mrs. Bruguiere is
about to sail for Paris and there be
remarried to her debonair husband —
maybe.
Eastland Now Silent
Joseph Eastman, clubman, who sev
eral months ago wired from Turin that
he was engaged to Mrs. Brugulere and
that the report that she was to marry
William Havemeyer, son of the sugar
king, was false, is backfrom his Euro
pean travels and is domiciled at the
Bohemian club. Eastland fights shy of
that cablegram sent to the three morn-
Ing papers. He has grown a mustache
since. He refuses to discuss Mrs.
Bruguiere's name.
METROPOLIS CREDITORS
COMMITTEE
Offer to Pay Laborers Blocked
at Meeting v •,'
The creditors of the Metropolis con
struction company met Tuesday in
the offices of the Standard Portland ce
ment company, in the Crocker build-
Ing. One hundred creditors were pres
ent, representing $230,000 ' in claims.
Marshal Frank, the receiver, offered to
advance |7,200 to pay the laborers, but
objection was raised to this procedure.
A letter was received from Judge Ca
baniss, In which he also urged that ar
rangements be made to pay the 400
workmen.
The Metropolis construction com
pany, through its attorney, expressed
Its desire that some arrangement be
made by which it could go on with its
contracts. It .Is engaged on city work
of a value of $400,000. .^'
The creditors appointed the follow
ing committee to act for them: George
Cameron, A. Tognazzi and A. Kitchen.
After three days the contracts held
by the Metropolis company will be de
clared forfeited.
UNDERTAKERS TO NAME
CANDIDATE FOR CORONER
Campaign Fund Is Pledged to
Carry on Fight
Thirty-five undertakers met in the
office of H. W. Maass, 1335 Golden Gate
avenue, Tuesyday night and decided^ to
work for the election of one of their
members as coroner. The candidate will
be chosen by a committee .of five un
dertakers, including F. A. White, F.J .
Monahan, C. H. J.Truman, A. T. Gant
ner and Frank. Marlni.
There was considerable censure of
any policy which makes only doctors
eligible for this position Statistics
presented showed 25 out of 28 coroners
in the bay counties to be undertakers.
More than $8,000 was pledged to
carry on the fight.
S. P. SUBMITS ITS - .
CASE ON AFFIDAVITS
At the reopening of the injunction
suit of the Southern Pacific company
against the city of Sacramento, before
Master in Chancery Wright yesterday,
the remainder of the railroad's case
was submitted on affidavits, according
to agreement.

THRILLS OF SINGER
PACK BIG HOUSES
Proves Herself Worth $2,500
for Each Concert by
Drawing Crowd
Young Actress Refuses to Sleep
Indoors and Has Tent on B
Hotel Roof
WALTER ANTHONY
Why should not Tetrazzini get $2,500
every time she sing-s in concert? vShe
reminds me of what William Morris,
who exploited Harry Lauder, told me
of that Scotch comedian. "He is," said
Morris, "the cheapest attraction I ever
handled. He makes more money for
me." As long as, they "pack 'em in," the
stars are cheap at almost any price,
and certainly Tetrazzini,. not to confuse
ethics and aesthetics in a paragraph
that contains the name of comedian arid
diva, "packs 'em in." Dreamland rink
bulged Monday * night: the crowd was
thrilled and even the critics were
pleased. Tetrazzlni promises to attract
to Dreamland Saturday afternoon a
throng- no less large. Her. marvelous
voice does it. However, I'm constrained
to print, a letter which, shamefacedly,
was only initialed, hut which was so
sweetly rebuking and otherwise harm
less that it may interest.
After a polite superscription the let
ter said:
"The inclosed article does not coin
cide with the mass of gush that has
found its way into the papers regard
ing Mme. Tetrazzini.* I prefer'to'\u25a0be
lieve* Mr. Henderson Is correct in his
criticism herewith.
"If you could manage to pass this
article along to the rest- of our very
able critics (sweet, words these. — Ed.)
it probably would prove of great bene
fit to them.— A. E. T. ff -
Henderson's article Is too long to
quote in its entirety, and it proves con
clusively to Mr. Henderson's and A. E.
T.s minds, at least., that Tetrazzini is
a very poor singer indeed. The article
is well written, and contains .many
technical expressions, such as' "fluent
staccato," "equalisation in scale,"
"breaks in her register?," and other
things like that. I myself would have
been persuaded that Tetrzzini sang
poorly but for the fact that I heard
her, in which advantage I fear A. E. T.
didn't share last Monday* night, or, if
he did, he listens to song with his eyes.
Argument' ls as useless over a tone
that thrills as it is over anything else
with which Jfogic has nothing to do.

Miss Helene' Luttrell, the ingenue in
Henry W. Savage's "Madame X" com
pany at the Savoy, declares that fresh
air is the ideal beauty tonic. Miss
Luttrell is a "fresh air fiend." Although
she has traveled from New York to San
Fratnclsco with the ' "Madame X" com
pany, she has yet to have her first sleep
in a real bed in a real room in a real
hotel. The_young woman Is not suffer
ing from insomnia.
Miss Luttrell believes the Ideal place
to sleep'is In a tent on the roof of the
hotel at which she stays. During her
summer vacations she always sleeps but
of doors and this season she decided to
try : the same ! scheme while "on the
road." She experienced' considerable
difficulty in finding landlords accommo
dating enough to construct a temproary
boudoir on their- roofs, but she believes
that she will be able to go through the
entire season without having to occupy
a room in' a hotel.
Miss Luttrell — a newcomer to the stage
— Is' l9 years old and first attracted the
attention" of Henry "W. Savage when
she -won the/ gold medal annually
awarded,.by t "the governor general of
Canada to the young -woman displaying
the highest proficiency in instrumental
music.

"1900" CLUB LIVES IN
EIGHTEENTH CENTURY
Only Thing Modern About Lon-
don Organization Is Name
Just within the radius of clubland
proper, in .a quiet backwater off St.
James street, quite the most
thing in clubs has just been estab
lished, i says'.the- London correspondent
of the New York Sun. The "1900" club,
as it is cabled, is a one room club, but
the«rx)om is 150 iyears old and carries
with it the 'atmosphere and repose of
the good old days when "bucks" and
beaux ; took .their walks abroad/
The president of the club Is Arthur
Balfour, and although It has only re
cently taken to itself a habitation, the
club has been In. existence some 10
years. -".lt -was founded by a few union
ist members, arid its present member
ship numbers 500. including the prin
cipal members of the unionist party.
It opens at 8 p. m. and closes at 2 a. m.
The house, with its narrow staircase
and wainscoted walls, was ; once; the
residence of Lord Kirkcudbright,] a
"buck" of the eighteenth century, and
later on; was a quiet gambling resort
frequented by .Lord- Sandwich d'Orsay
and other 'bloods.. -
On the old mantelpiece, among other
things, is a card, a .relic of .the- ; old
days when the "bucks'%tried their luck
at hazard. Other > relics consist of an
old rushlight holder* \u25a0 and ; box, an old
coach guard's blunderbuss,, a rattle
used by: 'the watch, and: pewter and
crockery, all of the period. Then there
are inkstands with sand ,casters and
quills attached, arid a n~ old pipe -rack
laden with; church wardens.:;' Every
thing has been selected with a view to
keeping- the room ,in. the 1740 period.
