The causes which led to it have re- sulted in the wrec-kin t j of two once h appy homes, tbe vs t vraVy passions of two peop le b avins wroug ht much so r- row and suffering. On May 6 , 1878 , Hubert and Rosseta Mehling. were m a rried in Sayville , Suffolk Count y, and they liv ed together happily until so m e time in November , 1SS6 , when the husband' s susp icions were aroused regarding his wi fe ' s fid elity. A man whose name is g iven as Phili p Hab- erman is sai d to ha y e been the disturb- in g cause. Quarrels between the m arried couple became - frequent , and finall y, as is alleged , Hab e rman and Mrs . Mehling went off to California together , where they lived together at L o s G a tes , in Sant a Clara County. La = t y ear they returned to Brooklyn and took up their residence together on Flushin g avenue. Two children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Mehling, and in March last , as much to obtain i possession of tnem as for any other reason , Mr. Mehling broug ht suit for a divor ce from bis wife and to obtain- the custody of the children. W'ben the ease was tried before Justice Bartlett one of the children , C hrist of Mehling, w ho had been t a k e n b y th e c o u p le to California , was examined at length . and testifi ed to the statements above out- lined . His m other had gone to Cali- fornia with Haberman and had lived with him t here. She had told him (the witness) to call Haberman \ p apa , \ and he had done so. Several other wit- nesses gave testimony corroborative oi the alle gations in the comp laint a gainst the defendant. No answer was put in by t he defendant and at the conclusion of the hearing Justice Bartlett took the papers- The decree of divorce has not yet been si gned b y his Hon o r , bnt doubtless will be as soon as certain for- malities in connection with the testi- mony hare been complied with. Hab- erman , the co-respondent , is a married man , and his wife and chi ldren are livin g at Say y iU e , in poor circumstan- ces.

W ent to church with Mrs . G. but it was high church and a cold draug ht c h u r ch and I did n o t e njoy it . They had asurp liced choi r , but some ot them ha d h e ads as b are a s a b illiard b all , with long b eards like a patriarch , and to see such old boys in the choir had rath er an incon g ruous appearance to me. I had asked Mrs . Shattuek \What kind of a p lace is San Francisco on Sunday?\ she rep lied , \Why they have no Sunday here . \ \But what do the people do on Sunday ?\ \Oh , they g o on picnics or to the base bal l games. \ But they do have Sunday here , as there was a fai r a tt e nd a n c e at c hurch and th en I saw two boot black stands with this n otice. \A shine . for a ni ckle . Teh cents on Sunday. \ ' \ ' - . \ _ ' : 1- This is the . gre a test caravansary ;1 ev e r stru c k , they say they have over eleven hundred guests , and bad to send a great many away yesterday, a bout four hundred of which are Ray- mond tramps and as we ave entitled to outside rooms it makes tlio others mad , as the rooms opening on the street, all have balh rooms and other modern conveniences which are shut off from tbe other room s opening on the courts. There are four passages , one baggage and one servant s elevator , so that the hi g her you go the brig hter and p leas- anter is your room , and stairs are at a discount , as well they may be as the house is seven storie s , the lower story twenty seven feet (lifty-two risers on th e stairs) I counted them. The upper story is sixteen feet hi g h , so yon can imag ine what it would be if you had t o walk up to your room on the sixth or seventh floor. The central court is eight y b y a hundred and forty-four feet , with a g la ss roo f into which you enter with your carriage and are land- ed under cover with you r baggage— here is also a railway clerk with checks who if yon have your ticket , will check y our bag s rage to any part of the United States , F our artesian wells having a capacity of _S , 0t) O gallons per hour with tanks holding 7 - \ t0 , 000 gallons are the water supp l y with thre e lar g e steam fire pumps forcing water in fort y-five wrought iron fine mains that reach above the roof and 15 , 000 feet of hose. Electric self acting lire-alar ms instantl y report at. the o flice , the local- ity of any unusual heat , for protection against fire. Tub u larconductors from each floor carry your letters direct to the main letter box in the oflice—and a pneumatic dispatch-tube instantl y conveys m essages or parcels to and from any point of tbe different floors . T he restaurant 55x110 feet is on one side of the court , the din ing-room 55x150 feet on the opposite side . When we arrived here we concluded to try t he restaurant or Europea n plan , but after a few days we found our fellow tram ps were all loo good Americans to go any thin g Eur o p e an , so we have gone oyer to them and take our meals in the general dining-room , bnt a change is not always an improvement , and t he food is better cooked and served in the restaurant—and more expensive —old customers \ who know th e ropes , \ tak e rooms here and dine outside . Army and H avy officers generall y pat- ronize the Occidental and from what I h a ve l earned I th i nk it is m o re hom e like and comfortable than this great castle. Commercial men patronize the Lick and Rn s se Houses , all of these are o n Mon t g om e ry str e et a n d w i thin thr ee minutes walk—tbe Baldsvin Ho- tel and Theatre is a hal f mile f arther up Market street. The N esbitts are here and as there are fiv e ladies in their party Mrs. G. has p lenty of compan y for her shop- p in g e xcursions , and they each and all kn ow the way to Dupont street (china- town) and it is a poor day when Sing Fat , Win g Chong, or Kim Lung does n o t s e e the c olor of their money and finger it too. The heathen Chinese may b e peculiar but he is also polite and p leasant. Whil e smoking my ci gar in the st re et yesterday while the ladies were testing John ' s patience , I saw ei g ht o r ten Chinese boys of perhaps nin e years o f a g e marchin g u p the street in pai r s , when nearl y opposite t o me they came to a halt , and one of th e m st epp ed in a do o r and tu r ned around facing his comrades , who were all in line on the ed ge of the sidewalk , wh en they gracefull y bowed—bringing their h e ads down as low as their knees , it was very very graceful—after which he closed the door , and the others con- tinu ed th e ir w a y up s treet , —now if they bad been yankee boys , they would probably have g iven his p i g tail a jerlc that would nearly have dislocated his neck and haye ran off shouting at the top of their voice , \but bein g onl y heathens they knew no better. Do you know I haye often wonde i' ed how tho Chinese managed to eat rice with their chop sticks and it was as much a desire to s ee them eat as to taste their food that earned us to th eir restaurant ror lunch , an d so a noth e r illusion of my y outh is wi ped away , as their rice is cold an d cut off in slices , which th ey p ick u p with th e ir castin e ts or c hop stick and bit e off until they get it re- duce t o the size of a walnut , when presto ! change 1 and it is gone. Can I describe Frisco? I will try. All ea stern and northern travelers are lan ded from the femes at _ the foot of Market street which we will take for a point of departure. Should you leave here b y steamer for a P a cific port yon w ould pass around the north side of the city. About four and a half miles would biinu you to t he fort and en- trance to the harbour , sailing about southwest three miles farther would bring y ou to Point Lobo s and the Seal Rocks , \ but as we a r e not g oi ng to sea w e will return to our point of depart- ure , the ferry—from this point Market street runs southwest about thr ee miles , the adjacent streets to the south run p ar a llel and at ri g ht ang les with Market street , whi le the streets to the north and west ran either north and sou th or east and west and of course make an acute an gle when they enter it. Pass up Mark et two blocks will brin g you to California street on your right turn to the right up Califor- ni a street a hal f mile will bring you to Kearn ey street and the first cabl e road ever made , step into the car or rather on the front of the gri p, you are now facing west , and start up N ob Hill which is nearly as steep as the roof of an ordinary house a short half m ile brings you to the top and you have a sp lendid view of the har- bour and city, and on either side of you are the homes of more millionaires Ihan ron are likely to sea soon , Crock- ers , \ F l ood , Mark Ho p kins , Senator Stanford and others. Flood' s res i dence is one hundred feet front by 190 deep and is of brown stone from Connecti- cut as marble was probably to p lenty and cheap .
