gay little song. "I'll Do the Same for
"You." to which she gave an additional

WOMAN AIDS WITH KNIFE
She Stabs Longshoreman fighting
With Her Husband.
Marian Thompson, a longshoreman,
was stabbed in the back twice by Mrs.
Harry Knauss yesterday afternoon
while the husband of the woman was
engaging in a fist fight with Thomp
son. The participants reside in a lodging-house
at So'iVi East First street,
and, although Thompson refused at
first to make a complaint eriinst the
woman, all concerned in the affray 'will
be brought up in the Municipal Court
on a charge of disorderly conduct.
Later in the afternoon Thompson swore
to a warrant for the arrest or Mrs.
Knauss.
Officer Stark Lytle was sent to inves
tigate the cutting scrape, learning that'
the nght was the outgrowth of an old
feud between the wife of Thompson
and Mrs. Harry Knauss. At 3:30 yes
terday afternoon Thompson and Knauss
had a wordy battle in the hallway out
side their rooms, which soon developed
into a battle of bare knuckles. Knauss
apparently was getting the worst of
the scrap when his wife is said to have
grabbed a big jack-knife and to have
made two vicious jabs from behind at
Thompson.
The longshoreman was so weakened
from the knife wounds that he stag
gered towards his apartment, followed
by a fusillade of dishes and glassware.
He left a stream of blood on tne floor
behind him. and covered the walls and
tables In his own room with a Cory
smear. A physician was called to at
tend to his wounds, both of which were
nasty and painful, although not serious
gashes.
A hurry call was sent to the poliqe
station, but when the patrol wagon ar
rived Thompson refused to make a
complaint against the woman. An in
vestigation showed considerable evi
dence of disorderly conduct, however,
and the story of the affair was laid be
fore the District Attorney's office.

Property South of Morrison Street
May Be Held by Present Owner
for Further Increase.
Following closely upon numerous sales
made last week south of Morrison street,
comes another like sale negotiated for a
quarter block t Fifth and Montgomery
streets. This property, at the southeast
intersection of the streets, was bought
by Dr. A. E. Rockey from J. C. Friendly
and Jacob Rosenthal for $25,000. The
deal was negotiated by Jack Kirkman,
representing the buyer, and Gray, Cun
ningham & Gray, representing the selling
agents.
With this sale is brought to light an
instance of the remarkable increase in
property values, in kind with other rises
in values In the same general vicinity.
Messrs. Rosenthal and Friendly bought
this corner three years ago for $13,000.
At that time instead of paying the full
amount in cash, the buyers paid only
S5500, - giving a mortgage for the re
mainder. The profit of $12,000 realized
from the original investment of $5500 is
clear. The property, which is occupied
by old frame - barns, brings in a rental
of $95 a month. This sum has been far
more than enough to pay the taxes, in
surance and interest on the mortgage and
leaves 'more than he usual interest on
the $5500 investment.
Dr. Rockey bought the property as a
site for an apartment-house, but his plans
for improvement are now in an incipient
state and It is said he may decide not to
improve at all but to hold the corner as
an investment and take advantage of the
expected further increase in value.
One prominent real estate dealer suf
fered something akin to a nervous shock.
He had negotiated a deal for the sale
of a property at $140,000. The abstracts
had been examined by the - prospective
buyer and found satisfactory and a de
posit of $10,000 had been left with the
realty dealer to bind the purchase. The
property owner, a woman, had agreed to
the purchase price and the real estate
operator took his $10,000 check around
with every expectation of making a com
fortable commission.
Upon reaching the home of the woman
he was told that a deed would never be
signed nor money accepted for the prop
erty unless In the deed could be included
a clause perpetually prohibiting the sale
of liquor on the property. The sale fell
through Immediately. Although the pros
pective purchaser was buying the prop
erty as a site for purposes entirely for
eign to the liquor traffic, he could not
take title with the possibility that the
condition might be broken in years to
come by future owners.
W. F. G. Thacher, who has been invest
ing in real estate to a marked degree re
cently, has bought a home on Twenty
fourth near Marshall street, from Mrs."
Bessie M. Teal. This is a large, two
story, nine-room frame residence, " com
plete in appointment and 'beautifully fur
nished. The price was $S300. Professor
Thacher will occupy the Jlretty Nob Hill
house as a home. The sale was made
through ,the C. K. Henry Company. -
A. Meister has bought a property con
sisting of a single lot on Sixth street,
tiear Jackson street, from I. Pogolotti. of
the French Bakery., for $9000. , The lot is
now the site of a small cottage, which
will be removed to the. rear, and a brick
building for store purposes will be placed
on the front of the lot. The sale was
made by the Howard Land Company. Mr.
Pogolotti recently bought a quarter block
at Sixth and Hall streets from A. J.
Brault. through the agency of Vanduyn
& Walton, as a site for a modern bakery
building.

Fitzgerald Critcises Lawyers Prac
tice of Looking Fp Data on Men .
Drawn for Jury.-
That Howard Guildford, the young man
who confessed to an nttemp't to bribe
Juror Barton in the Morris trial, will
enter a plea of guilty when he conies to
trial and throw himself on the mercy
of the court. Is now believed. Guildford
has stuck to the story .tpld in his original
confession', which shifts the chief blame
for tlte bribery attempt on other persons.
Attorneys Campbell and Gessland, who
are repreenting Guildford, say that they
have cross-examined the lad in the most
rigorous manner, but have failed entirely
to shake his first story. The whole matter
will be . taken before the grand jury.
Which meets on Monday. V
"It eaems to have been somewhat 4of a
custom for lawyers to look up the life his
tory and .pedigree of members of a jury
just as soon as a new panel is drawn."
said Deputy District Attoraey Fitzger
ald yesterday. "I have often tried cases
where the lawyers for the defense have
a whole mass of notes about every Jury
man, telling just who he is and how
much he is worth. I don't believe this
is fair, for the rich and the poor man
are not given the same kind of considera
tion. If there is . no law which covers
this business,' I think there should be. At
any rate, the grand jury: will have an
opportunity to delve into the matter."
