Lambert, the alleged default- ing Police Court clerk of Oakland, who has been missing since last Friday morning, is on his way to Honolulu, and he is accom- panied by a fair but frail young woman, whose name is said to be Gertrude Mahoney. Lambert and his female com- panion sailed away on the Mariposa, which left for Australia by way of Hono- lulu a week ago yesterday, and they will pro land on Hawaiian soil to-day. mbert was one of the last to go aboard the steamer, he and the young woman going up the gangplank just be- fore the steamer sailed. They drove up in a coupe to the office of the Oceanic Steam- ship Company on Montgomery street shortly before 3 o'clock and Lambert bought two tickets for Honolulu for J. C. Thomas and wife. Lambert seemed to be suffering from the eifects of a protracted spree. very red, and his hands trembled as he put 150 in gold in payment for the two tickets. Directly he secured his tickets he entered the coupe and the latter went rattlirig over the stones in the direction of the Oceanic dock.

C Lewis of 1457 Brush street recently received a_letter from a banker named Meyers at Carthage Landing, N. Y., asking Mr. Lewis to look up the banker’s son, Harry Percival Meyers, 5 Mr. Lewis is not acquainted with the banker, but has friends in the New York town who know him, and it was through them that he addressed the Oakland man. The letter called attention to the fact that two couples had been married in Oak- Jand on February 25 in the office of the County Clerk. One couple was Harry Percival of Carthage, N. Y., aged 23, an ‘Alice Clark of San Francisco, aged 19; the other couple was Giles Thomas Morgan of Coshocton, Ohio, aged 23, and Rita Leary of San Francisco, aged 19 years. Meyers Sr. wrote that he saw an ac- count of the double marriage, and be- lieves that it was his son, but that the voung man had not given his full name. He deplored the fact of the marriage very much, and asked Mr. Lewis to look uY the matter thoroughly and send him full ac- counts of the transaction. Mr. Lewis was looking up the matter yesterday. The rty that was married in the clerk’s office on the date mentioned was a gay one. It was said that the quartet were going on a starring tour with a theatrical company, and that the mothers of the girls would not let them go until they were provided with legal protectors. Hence the marriages were hastened. The Jicenses were taken out and a Justice of the Peace sent for,and with clerks and newspaper men as witnesses the merry four were made two, and now a rich papa is hunting his son to give him a parental essing. D ouples left for the north the day of the wedding. He Hypnoitzed Her. A few hours after the release of Mrs. W. J. Dean, the wife of the notorious counter- feiter, from the County Jail yesterday on $1000 bonds furnished by Mrs. Henrietta Jansen and Miss Meta Jansen, two friends of the unfortunate lady, who reside in Berkeley, ~ an aged fientlemlm of fine appearance, who gave the name of Henry vgllkerson, called at the County Jail to make inquiries about Mrs. Dean, who, he says, was for a long time in his employ as t them His face was | cashier in a restaurant at Los Angeles. Mrs. Dean he pictures as a girl of high moral character who has been imposed upon by a designing scoundrel, and is more sinned against that sinning. Mr. Wilkerson thinks that from the in- fluence Dean has had over the woman, he must surely have hypnotized her, as her actions cannot possibly be accounted for in any other way. After they were married, the entire ex- &ense of their wedding tour was paid by rs. Dean, and the only contribution he evernmade toward her living during the course of their married life was a pair of shoes, valued at $3. Crushed by the Wheels. H. A. Croze, a_young fireman, who was starting out for his second trip on engine 118, under Engineer James, at 6:10 o’clock this morning, fell under the wheels near the coal-bunkers on the Oakland pier, and was instantly killed. The young man had just finished coalin, up his'engine for the “trip when the engi- neer started up, and as Croze turned to lower the tender-apron his foot slipped, and before the big locomotive could be stopped the wheels of the heavily laden tender had passed over him, crushing him beyond recognition. he Coroner was notified and the re- mains taken to the Morgue, where an in- quest will be held as soon as his parents reach the city. Croze was a single man, 20 years of age, and resided with his parents at Benicia. After the Insolvent Company. A decree of foreclosure has been granted to Jobn R. Spring against lands mort- 5:1;:6(! to plaintiff by the Piedmont Consoli- ated Cable Company for $15,000, only $1500 of which has been paid. The lands in question are on Webster, ‘Woolsey, Moss and Flint streets, and the San Francisco Tool Company had signed as security on the notes. Spring was granted a second judgment for $83000 against the company, and in the suit of the Puget Sound Lumber Company against the Piedmont Cable Compan judgment was granted plaintiff for $384 37 y default. Bassett Charges Libel Councilman elect Bassett, by his attor- neys Morgan Severance and Sherman, yesterday began suit against the Enquirer Publishing Company for_$20,000 damage: alleging libel in the publishing on the 2 of March, 1894, of matter reflecting on the managenent of the Davie Ferry Company of which s v member. The artic! stion, to which excep- tion is taken, was one to the effect that al- though $40,000 had been put in the ferry nothing came out of it but debts, while the promoters had succeeded in feathering their own nes The Last Sad Rites. Many friends gathered at the residence of the late Albert Barstow, 1018 Eighteenth services, which consisted of a short er and the singing of the favorite hymuns of the deceased pioneer, were con- ducted by the Rev. Robert F. Coyle, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, and a large number of the Society of California Pioneers followed the remains to their last resting place at Mountain View Cemetery. Kellogg’s Case. The charge of drunkenness and assault | against George H. Kellogg, the suspended Southern Pacific detective, may be di | missed and Kellogg's reinstatement | follow. Judge Wood heard testimony in | his case yesterday and took the matter un- ! der advisement.” Chief Schaffer, who ar- | rested Kellogg and locked him up in the | City Prison a few_weeks ago, and a couple of officers testified, and the court said it did not care to hear any more testimony. One More Trial. The family troubles of Special Police- man McKay have all been seitled, and the divorce case pending in Judge Ogden’s court has been dismissed. |~ When the case was submitted last week the Judge took the case under advisement for one week, saying that if they could not settle their differences in_one week the de- cree would be granted. Mr. and Mrs. Mc- Kay have agreed to try it over again, hence | the dismissal. A Clergyman Arrested. The Rey. Dayid McClure, a retired Congregational minister, was arrested vesterday for riding on the sidewalk his wheel. Rev. Mr. McClure is {70 vears of age, and had gone to i Alameda to escape the Oakland police and | irksome ordinances to take his spin. It { was_while on his way home, after he | | 1 | | | | 1 h reached Oakland, that he was arrested. He put up $10 bail and was released. The State Is Beaten. A verdict for $3800 damages has been rendered for defendant in the case of the | State of California vs. Ann M. Stiles to | condemn 3.34 acres of land near Berkeley for reservoir purposes. Ten questions were submitted by the court to the jury for their consideration. | Broken Shears Cost Him His Hand. The case of Maurice Pacheco against the Judson Manufacturing Company for $10,- 000 for injuries received by the breaking of a pair of defective iron shears, manufac- tured by the company and used by them in the rolling-mills, was being heard before a jury in Judge Ogden’s court yesterday. BERKELEY. Professor Hilgard, the well-known head of the college of agriculture of the Uni- versity, is making some interesting experi- ments on which he will report at the Farmers' Institute to be held at Riverside and Perris, March 24. He has received sam- ples of the soil from about Perris, and finds it is rich with phospates, while that of Riverside is deficient. The doctrine which the professor may proclaim and which wiil explain many strous results in Southern California, is that stable manure must not be mixed with commercial fertilizers, because they tend to decompose each other. The ex- periments that he is making are awaited with interest by the horticulturists of this State as the new theory has caused a sen- sation in Europe. Delinquent Assessments. Marshal Striker has been postponing from day to day the sale of property de- clared delinquent for the opening of Cedar street in two different sections of town. One is from Spring street to the land of R. P. Thomas and the other is from Sacra- mento to Grove street. A law which re- cently went into effect provides that the State shall buy the land. This would not produce funds to make the improvement and no work could be performed. “A bill has passed both houses of the Legislature amending the original law so that sales can be made to individuals. ‘This will straighten out the muddled con- dition of affairs and the Marshal can hold the sale as usual. 2 The free mail delivery system went into effect yesterday morning. A change was made in the departure of mails as a conse- quence. The Portland mail leaves at 3 P. M. instead of an hour later, and the overland will leave at 7 o’clock. Rev. Jenkin Lloyd Jones’ lecture at the university was only fairly well attended. His address was very interesting and the “Cost of an ldea’’ was fully explained. He will lecture at Stiles Hall next Sunday at 3:30 p. M. under the nu&a’ims of the Uni- tarian church on *“The Cost of Ignorance.”” Frank H. Dukedmith, who is writing a history of the University of California, says that the manuscript is in the hands of the publishers. It will be out in about two weeks, The ladies of the faculty will give a re- ception and tea next Tuesday afternoon at Stiles Hall. ALAMEDA, . Chairman Brown of the Board of Educa- tion discovered what looked like a nice little ““job” yesterday in the construction of the foundation of the West End school building. The Pacific Concrete Company has the contract and the specifications call for concrete foundation courses thirty inches wide in the bearings. Mr. Brown is a ‘contractor and has an eagle eye for street, to pay their last tribute of respect | to the memory of the man who was loved by all during his lifetime. everything in favor of school improve- ments. He visited the West End school buildir:ig yesterday and had his suspicions aroused when he saw the completed forms, and as a result of an investigation founa that the bearings, instead of being thirty inches at the base, were twenty-seven, and generally twenty-five and a half inches wide. Mr. Brown sought a representative of the contracting company and informed him that he would be held responsible for the strict adherence to the specifications under any and all circumstances. He also ordered the change made at once, and to be certain that it will be and that_there will be no unauthorized departures in the con- struction of the entire building, he placed J. A. Collins in charge as superintendent to see that the specifications are followed out to the letter. ‘Walter Is Missing.’ ‘Walter Latham, a 17-year-old boy, who resides with his parents ‘at 1608 Broadway, is missing. He was last seen at the mill of the Oakland sash and door factory Mon- day afternoon, where he has been occa- sionally employed. The police have been notified of his’ strange disappearance, and a thorough search has been made for him, but without result. Cards containing his description have been sent to officers throughoyt the State by Chief of Police Rogers with instructions that he be ta into custody. He is described as being about 5 feet 7 inches, heavily built, weigh- ing about 150 pounds, with_light hair and biue eyes. He had on a double-breasted, square-cut grayish brown coat and a black soft hat. He will probably assume the name of Henderson, the present name of his mother. The Non-Partisans. The executive committee of the Non- Partisan party is composed of: Kiernan, W. P. Dillon, George Manley, John Henderlong, Fred Wild, Robert Mitchell, J. W. Harbourne, Frank Hally and Henry Miller. Fred Wild is acting chairman.” L. P. Allen has formally de- clined the chairmanship, but will be present at the meetings and will work for the election of the ticket, except for School Directors. He championea the cause of Mrs. I. N. Chapman, nominee of the Good Government Club. The Oldest Voter. Thomas White Sr. died erday after- noon at the home of his son, Thomas White J 28 Pacific avenue. He was a native of Massachusetts and was 95 years of age. He was the oldest voter in Ala- meda County, and up to a year ago was in the enjoyment of vigorous health. He has been a resident of ameda for over forty vears and was a familiar figure on street. When be first came to Ala- meda he raised vegetables and has culti- vated nearly every section of Encinal. Midsummer Vacation. The public schools of ameda closed yesterday for the midterm vacation. Super- intendent D. J. Suilivan will ask the Board of Education at its next meeting to extend the coming summer vacation Six weeks. The proposition will be to close later than has been the established rule heretofore and close on the 14th of June, which will give the pupils a vacation until the first { Monday in August. The expression see to be that this plan will be pur: s 1 b ed by all of the cities in the adjoining bay counties.

OAKLAND AGENTS WEAKEN THEY SEND A COMMITTEE TO LOCAL INSURANCE MANAGERS FOR RELIEF. WANT A COMBINE ON RATES—SOME oF THE Bic MEN MEET AT DINNER. A committee of three insurance agents came from Oakland yesterday on a mission from the Oakland Board of Underwriters. It was composed of H. 8. Gordon, Alameda County agent for the North British and Mercantile and the Home Mutnal Com- pany, and Messrs. Fenton and Martin, who represent several companies across the bay. The object of their visit wasto confer with all the local insurance managers, whether in or out of the compact, and urge them to come to an agreement on rates in Oakland and Alameda County. i That is, they wanted every company to compel its Oakland agent to combine on rates. They were successful in every in- stance excepting with two managers not in the compact—Magill of the Pheenix and Home companies and Duval of the Continental. It was not cheering news for insurance men that they had to_tell. According to their story business in insuring propery against fire across the bay is in a woful condition from the prevailing bitterness in fighting. The Oakland committee will re- turn Monday and endeavor to patch up a truce somehow. From merry war to peace a party of in- surance men turned Thursday night, though their agility had no “business significance. Henry Evans, vice-president of the Continental Company of New York, who has been here several weeks in connection with his company’s fight against the Board of Fire Underwriters, gave a dinner at the University Club to some men with whom he was brought into contact, socially as well as in business. The dinner was given to show his appre- ciation of social courtesies extended to him during his visit to San Francisco, and it proved to be a most enjoyable one. Those resent were: H. Evans, Hugh Craig, W. . Landers, J. D. Maxwell, George Tyson, J. W. Smith, George E. Kline, W. 8. Duval, Fred Lopez, R. P. Schwerin and B. M. Delmas. There was no formal speaking, but there was enough evidence of good fellowship to show that no matter how the managers may be divided on matters of business they are still one very friendly terms per- sonally. THE EXECUTORS MUST PAY. Heirs of the Heydenfeldt Estate Escape From a Mortgage. The Superior Court has decided that the estate of Solomon O. Heydenfeldt must pay the mortgage upon the property which he left to his son, Thomas O. Heydenfeldt, and his daughter, Mrs. Zeila Hellings. In so doing it has reversed the decision of Judge Coffey, which ordered the two lega- tei-,s mentioned to pay the mortgage them- selves. Solomon Heydenfeldt left an estate worth about $100,000. To Thomas 0. Hey- denfeldt and Mrs. Hellings he left real estate valued at $65,000, but upon this was a mortgage held by the German Sav- ings and an Society for $40,000. This mortgage the executors refused to pay, on the ground that there was nothing to indi- cate that the general estate shoul§§ny the mortgage. Judge Coffey supported them in this position, but the Superior Court has decided that the testator intended to leave the property unincumbered, and the exec- utors are therefore ordered to pay off the mortgage from the general estate. Ready for an Emergency. A woman was bwing an outfit fora boarding-house on Wabash avenue. She was making all her purchases at one house, as is now frequently the custom. “And I want two mourning emblems,” she said; “‘a white one and a black.” “May I ask?” said the salesman. ‘“Certainly, but it is all right. They are Foud things to have in the house. At the ast boarding-house I ran one of my board- ers died, and because I didu’t have any mourning ribbons on hand the wife of the deceased left me, and they were such good pay. I made up my mind I wonldn% be caught out again’’.—Chicago Tribune. T0 BLOSSOM FORTH I THEIR BLODMERS OAKLAND'S LADY CYCLISTS FOR- MALLY DECLARE THEIR INDEPENDENCE. AND MAKE WHEELS WHIRL. A New CruB ORGANIZED AT THE ReELIANCE HEADQUAR- TERS. Time was, and not o very long ago either, when lady bicycle riders of Ozkland | did not deem it perfectly proper to be seen perched upon the saddle of a wheel cos- | tumed in a bloomer suit. But that time | has passed. After a severe struggle with | public sentiment and a more severe tussle ! with their pwn bashfulness those ladies have decided that bloomers are quite the fused to go into the tanks. On his return a conference was held at which there were Bresem. Collector John H. Wise, Deputy ollector E. T. Jerome, Deputy Surveyor § J. Ruddell, Gustoms {Veigher A. Rhodes, Robert B. Huie and Ed M. Huie, repre- senting Grace & Co., the charterers of the Bawnmore, Captain J. Metcalfe, Lloyd’s surveyor, Captain Alex Woodside of the steamer, and P.W. Bellingall, Grace & Co.’s Custom-house broker. In explanation of his inability to meas- ure the vessel St. John said: ‘T found her a floating tank and a very difficult vessel to measure. Shehas a double bottom, and the space between is full of oil, and the fore and aft compartments and the coffer- dams between the engine-room and oil- tanks, which is supposed to contain water, were also filled with oil. Two men went into one of the tanks a few days ago, and one of them was so prostrated that he had to be pulled on deck bya rope. In the i:ircumstanccs I was not going to yisk my ife.” “Why, I was in the tanks this morning,” said Captain Woodside, *and T'll lead he way for you now if you want to go gown.” Robert B. Huie explained that the oil now in the ship was residuam, and was only used for fuel on the steamer. It was non-inflammable and would not explode if | a match was stuck into it. He exymined that the invoice of the last cargo called for 2600 tons, but in reality only 2285 had been weighed out. He thought it was unfair to charge duty on the larger quantity. Captain Metcalfe pointed out to the Col- lector, on a plan of the ship, the places in which the oil was carried. He explained EDITH MOULTON. IDA AYRES. LOTTIE REED. NORA HAVEN. A QUARTET OF YOUNG LADY CYCLERS IN THEIR NEW COSTUMES. [From a photograph taken expressly for the “Call.’"] I thing. Hereaiter they wili follow their own sweet wills in going and coming on | their wheels in divided skirts, indifferent | to the covert glances of the curious men | folks. Society has pronounced bloomers | fashionable, and they therefore must be all | right. i The 1895 bloomer, which has been favor- | ably passed upon by Oakland’s 400, does | not differ materially from those worn last | vear. The mat largely used is navy | blue serge, or heavy woolen goods of light color. Stockings, plain or striped, match the trousers, which are made a trifle more | baggy this season than last. There has been no change'in the jackets. During the past_year a bold attempt was made by severaleof the lading lady cyclists to introduce the divided skirt. The effort, though commended by all, felljthrough, and it remained for the society younfi ladies to take the matter in charge an carry it to completion, Five hundred or more young ladies of the very best families have by their actions said that bloomers are to be *‘a go” this year in Oakland. There is to be no more riding into the country and there discard- ing the heavy dresses. 'No more prowling about after d)ark in bloomers and reveling in the recollections of sweet stolen rides, all unincumbered by troublesome and use- less overskirts. So many riders have de- clared their intention of donning the bloomers for the first time this year and of appearing boldly on the streets in the day- time, too, that the sight will be absolutely common. The introduction of these big, baggy gar- ments is not all that will shock the prudes of the city across the bay. Quite a num- ber of the girls have thrown aside their last year’s wheel, with its drop_bar, and have procured the most up-to-date pat- tern—a ladies’ wheel with a diamond frame —and already are expert at making a rear or a running pedal mount. To gain the strength which comes with union a ladies’ bicycle ciub was formed last night at the Reliance Club rooms. The new organization is designed to help the weak and wavering ones, believing it to be easier to make the first dash in com- any with the bolder sisters than to ride Forth before the cold world unattended. Members of the new club will make fre- quent club runs to the surrounding cities, where they expect to enjoy life to the ut- most. They will have the pleasure of astonishing the people of any place they may elect to visit by their strange and striking appearance. The following are the officers of the club: President, Mrs. M. L. Schleuter; vice-president, Miss Ollie Thilo; secretary, Miss Ada Mott; treasurer. Miss Addie Higgins; captain, Miss Mabel Holmes. Those signing the list as charter members were: Mrs. M. L. Schleuter, Mrs. William Mason, Miss Ollie Thilo, Miss Ada Mott, Miss Addie Higgins, Miss Mabel Holmes, Miss Mamie Tippins, Miss A. Bartling, Miss Mattie Redchiffe, Miss Mary Darrufi, Miss Tillie Peller, Miss Barbara Peller, Miss Julia Scanton, Miss M. L. Carpenter. The emblem of the club will be an oak leaf with the letters “O. O. C.” in the center. The club uniform will be adopted later. The initiation fee was placed at $1, with dues 50 cents per month, ONCE MORE THE BAWNMORE THE OFFICIAL MEASURER WOULD NoOT VENTURE INTO HER OIL-TANKS. A RATHER STORMY CONFERENCE IN THE CUsTOM - House FoLLOWED. The British steamer Bawnmore was the cause of a very lively debate in the Cus- tom-house yesterday. Captain Alexander ‘Woodside wanted to clear his vessel, but Collector Wise would not issue her papers until the vessel's carrying capacity had been ascertained beyond a doubt. An ad valorem rate of Quty has to be paid on every ton of liquid bitumen brought into port and since the Bawnmore has been running between here and Payta, Peru, the Government has been unable to discover her exact carrying capacity. In conse- quence every time the steanier has reached port her charterers have paid the duty on what the invoice called for under protest. Yesterday they asked for a reduction and the trouble began. Chauncey M. St. John, the United States official measurer of vessels, was sent out to take the Bawnmore's dimensions, but when he reached the vessel and found that there was still considerable oil on board he re- that all jthe oil carried outside the tanks was for fud No decision was reached, but the chances are that the Collector will allow the vessel | to go to sea to-day and have her measured | when she returns from Peru. e ArprecIATION of Dr. Price’s Baking Pow- deris world-wide.

A very sad affair was yesterday brought to the attention of some prominent He- | brews in this city through the medium of I. Benyakar, an Egyptian curio merchant of this city. Mr. Benyakar came to San Francisco about eighteen months ago from the World’s Fair. He was an exhibitor at the Midwinter Exposition, and at its close de- cided to open a store and locate perma- nently in this city. He prospered, and little by little he brought out members of his family who lived in Egypt. Among his other relatives there came to him his aged mother, who was in failing health and who, it was thought, might be benefited by the bracing climate of Cali- fornia. Last Saturday afternoon Mrs. Benyakar left the home of her son on Polk street, saying that she was going to visit friends. Nothing more was heard of her and after the lapse of several days her son communi- cated with the city authorities, asking their aid. Diligent search revealed the fact that she had dlied and had been buried in the potters’ field, after lying at the Morgue several days awaiting identification. The manner of the death of the unfor- tunate lady can only be a matter of sur- mise. Itisthought that while paying her round of visits she was seized with heart failure and so exsired. Nobody qggearing to claim the body she was buried in the potters’ field. S Immediately upon ascertaining the facts of the case Rabbi Jacob Voorsanger ob- tained permission to have the body disin- terred, and yesterday it was taken to the Home of Peace Cemetery of the Congrega- tion Emanu-El, where the funeral ritesof the Jewish church were performed. Mr. Benyakar was absent from his place of business last night, and one of his iriends explained that he was “sitting A i There are 270 officials in Queen Victoria’s household. | | | FIRST-CLASS REALTY | heirs, at 8 New Montgomery street, in the afjstore, Palace Hotel. shiva,” or mourning for his deceased Sng-ent, such being the custom of orthodox riental Hebrews, and for seven days he will not be seen in public. During the shiva week, he will, in company with his relatives, remain seated on the ground, reciting appropriate prayers. e ¥ranklin School Charity Day. The boys and girls of the Franklin Grammar School made large donations to the hungry poor of this city yesterdey. Long before the time for calling school, they came trooping in loaded with potatoes, fiour, coal, meat, tes, coffee, sugar and other groceries in large quan- tities and great variety. The pupils were de- lighted to be able to administer to the wants of their neighb: Besides relieving the wants of twelve needy families in the immediate vicinity. the school sent two large express loads of groceries and 516 in money tojthe Salvation Army to be distributed where it will do the most good. The collections were received and distributed without the least friction, which reflects the greatest credit upon the cnildren and teachers of the Franklin { Estate of the Late MRS. KATE JOHNSON.
