. THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 10, 1895. LATEST OAKLAND NEWS,| The Municipal League Figur- ing on a Garbgee Crematory. GENERAL C. W. KELLEY FINED, Frank Cattell's Suit Against the City Begun Before Judge Frick. Shall the city of Oakland build a garbage crematory of its own or shall it go on per- mitting the refuse to be dumped where it may be amenaceto the public health? was the question discussed at the meeting of the Citizens’ Municipal League yesterday. Health Officer Dr. Frank L. Adams dis- cussed the question at length, showing that the effect of garbage cremation in other cities had been to reduce the death rate to a large extent, particularly in re- gard to typhoid tever, which had practi- cally been eradicated in some instances. He said that the guestion of the disposal of garbage lay between throwing it into the bay and turning it adrift or cremating it. He was heartily in favor of the latter plan ds the cheapest and most effective that could be devised. The Board of Health had calculated that a city crematory could be built for $15,000, and he thought such an institution should e established at once. that he had Councilman M 2] said and that the col- ost the city $500 anticipated that much the garbage through arise from property- o would object to the smells the carts. rn also advocated the build- atory, saying that such an absolutely essential to the c health and should be constructed at b owners, W emanat Dr. Jo ne further discussion a commit- H.

That date is set for the annual rand review and inspection of the military epartment. It is probable that the mili- tary exercises will take place at 1 o’clock in the afternoon, the reception to the Gov- ernor in the gymnasium immediately after and the alumni banquet atihe Palace in the evening. @ Notes. The annual meeting of the West Berke- leyj Presbyterian church will be held this evening. Reports of work done in the various departments of the church during the past year will be read and the work of the coming year outlined. A fire broke out in a house on Adeline street yesterday afternoon, but it was ex- tinguished before much damage was done. The cause of the blaze was a defective flue leading from the kitchen. ALAMEDA. The Good Government Club made almost a clean sweep in the municipal election. Only three of its candidates failed to pass under the wire in the lead, and all three of those were for minor offices. Mrs. Chap- man was defeated for School Director, E. Minor Smith for City Treasurer and Robert McGown for City Recorder was also de- feated. The Good Government candidates for City Trusiees won _easily, polling 3527 votes to 2504 for the Non-Partisans. F. J. Fletter polled the highest vote for Qity Trustee. The other two successfnl candidates were J. F. Forderer, chairman of the present board, and A, V. Clark, a popular young native son of the West End and vice-president of the Clark Pottery Works. The complexion of the School Board is not changed except for the short term, E. H. Bryan being elected without opposition, School Directors Knowles, Tisdale and Lanktree, who have held this office for the past four years, succeed themselves on the Scnool Board. Colonel Roswell G. Wheeler, City Treasurer-elect, was for- merly an Indian Agent in Arizona under the Harrison administration. Oscar L. Rogers, re-elected City Marshal, has held the position three terms, and had no oppo- sition at the last two elections. The Board of City Trustees will meet next Monday evening to eanvass the re- sult and issue certificates of election to the successful candidates, and the new Trus- | tees will enter upon their duties at onc | The following are the successful candi- dates: City Trustees—F. J. Fletter, J. F. Forderer and A. V. Clark; School Dire | tors—Dr. W. A. L. Knowles, C. L. Tisdale, J. B. Lanktree and E. H. Bryan; City Treasurer, Roswell G. Wheeler; City Re- corder, A. F.

The Street Committee reported that Cal- lege way, near Shattuck avenue, needed repairing, and about $40 would be required to do the work properly. The Town Mar- shal was ordered to attend to the matter. The report of the commissioners ap- pointed to oversee the work of extending Cedar street, from Spring street east, was presented. The receipts were $1300 54, and the expenditure: attorney’s fee, $50; com- missioners, $200; engineer’s fee, $30; searching records, $16; advertising, $62 04; land taken, $942 50. The Town Marshal reported for the quarter ending March 31, as follows: R ceipts—Taxes, $1214 79; dog tags, $5; license, $467; lower Cedar-street opening fund, $556 upper Cedar-street opening fund, $683 34; sewer permits, $15; total, $2041 98. The El Dorado oil works was granted the privilege of laying a pipe across University avenue from First to Second streets. The permit granted J. G. Pittman to se- cure a unor license was revoked, after the hearing of a petition offered by Mrs, Smith. R. W. Brehm presented his resignation as one of the commissioners for the widen- ing of Shattuck avenue opposite the E{mg erty of Mrs. Mary A. Townsenc., and H.D. Irwin was appointed to succeed him. The liquor license ordinance providing that a reduction be made from $200 to $100 annually was brought up by Trustee Had- lan and carried by a majority of one vote. Observatory Addition. The directors of the Lick Observatory have received a telegram from the Hon. Edwin Crossley, late member of Parliament for Halifax, which states that he proposes to give to the observatory his great three- foot reflecting telescope, with its dome and its entire apparatus complete. The only conditions to the gift are that the telesco; - be set ufion Mount Hamilton,that it shallE: called the Crossley reflector, and that the expenses of its transportation from Eng- land be paid by Americans.

The crippled and blind beggars are | again becoming a nuisance on the streets. | It was just 'a month ago that the CaLn | published a long article showing that | hardly any of the professional beggars on | the streets were deserving of charity; that ! many of them had good bank accounts, and principally that all of them were ille- | gally on the streets. If blind and erippled | men and women have no means, the law | states plainly they must be arrested and sent to the Almshouse. If they have means, the law says they should be ar- rested and punished for begging. The | CaLL published the law and the facts on March 8 and 9, and on March 9 the follow- | ing order was issued at the instance of | Chief of Police Crowley : MARCH 9; 1895, Captain Douglass: Your attention is called to section 29 of No. 1587, page 35, orders of the Board of Supervisors. he Chief of Police directs thet you arrest all those who adopt beg- | ging as a calling, also_all ablebodied bergars, and charge them with vagrancy, and those who are physically unable o earn a support or | livelihood should be charged with begging un- der the city ordinance that they may be com- mitted to the Almshouse. H. S. HEALEY, Clerk. ‘When the above order was given to Cap- tain Donglass he submitted it to the differ- ent sergeants, and they in turn instructed the policemen to see that all beggars were kept off the streets. For two or three | weeks the streets were kept quite clear of the unsightly objects, but for the last few days they have all come out of their holes. Most of them have changed from their regular places though, and in the morning, be%nre many policemen are around, they cluster thic{ly about the White House. Fernand Deboas, the imported profes- sional blind beggar from Belgium; Robert Morris, the legless pencil-seller; Joseph Zen, the blind Swiss, and a newly im- ported blind woman are around the corner of Post and Kearny streets everv morning until it is time for Police Officer Peter Richter to come on watch. They then scatter for fear of arrest, as Richter considers the beggarsasa dis- grace to the city and will ailow none of them to take up stands on his beat. If all the officers obeyed the law and the instruc- tions of their sergeants, this city would be ckly rid of "its unsightly beggars. hen noon comes the human feeches who live off the blind beggars take the bread and beer winners to other places. Deboas usually goes down to Sixth and Jessie streets, Morris crosses over Post street and stands in front of D. Bamuels’ store, Zen goes to Montgomery street and the blind woman js taken. to Market street_opposite Fifth. Frank Amann and John Scoit can be seen daily at their old stands on Grant avenue, between Geary and Post streets. In speaking of the matter yesterday Chief Crowley said: ‘The principal trouble in carrying out the law in rega to the beggars is that the police judges will not convict the poor devils. " Cases after cases have been brought before them and they have always let the beggars go. Then there is another objection. 'fne Almshouse is packed. It is so full that Superintendent Weaver will not take any more people. The Almshouse is full every winter, and if all the beggars were arrested we would have to build a new Aimshouse,” It is a peculiar thing, however, that Officer Richter has no trouble to keep Kearny street clear and free of disgusting sights, while very few others haye the sense to enforce the law. The only beggar who bothers Richter is Henry J. Powell, the paralyzed old xylophone-player, who still comes out to gather tribute from his regular t&nrons. ichter will not allow him to take up a stand, however, and the old beggar, whom the Gazy proved to be The reception | worth several thousand dollars, is not tak- and banquet that was to be tendered him | ing in very much toadd to his hoard. by the faculty and alumni on next Batur- day evening at the Palace has been post- poned till the 25th inst.

He thinks the Good Roads | 2R NW cornerof Diamond and Army streets, W Association should be able not only to build a boulevard from Oakland to San Jose, but ought to be able to better all the roads about the city. “It is almost impossible to find a good road by which to get out_of Oakland,” he said. ““The road to San Pablo just as pres- ent is simply impassable. The road to FBast Oakland is barred by the Twelfth- street dam, while the road to Alameda is barred by the Webster-street dam.” George A. Faulkner of the Acmes is an expert on wheels and knows every road in Alameda County. He thinks a boulevard from Qakland to San Jose one of the things of the near future. “The road from Niles to San Jose is very fair now,” said he. “Those about Oakland are a disgrace to the county. From Oak- land to San Leandro the roads are defec- tive in many places. The road by way of Alvarado we have had to abandon, and now wheelmen take the hill road by wa; of Haywards. These things,” he ndde(f, *will be changed when our membership roll has been signed by the non-wheeling property-owners of the city as well asthose belonging to bicycle clubs.” L. G. Burpee, a member of the Y. M, C. A. wheelmen, is cashier of the First Na- tional Bank. He also hopes for good roads. He thinks that the Supervisors can be in- duced to make a boulevard to Alameda as well. as to San Jose, and has many argu- ments to show that such improvements would really be in the line of economy. Burglars and Robbers Held. James F. Patterson, alias Sullivan, and Harry Hark, alias George Clark, were yesterday held by Judge Low to answer before the Superior Court on the eharge of burglary at the lodging- house at 156 Third street in $10,000 each. Hark was also held in $10,000 bonds on the charge of assault to murder upon Jean Car- reau, the keeper of the lodging-house. Patter- son_and Herk are the two men charged with holding up and shooting Walter Blake of the Stockton Independent, and their preliminary examination on that charge will be held as soon as Mr. Blake is able to come to the city. A o S s v Bates Not to Blame. Mrs. John Martin desires it to be known that, in her opinion, Attorney J. C. Bates was not to blame in the supposed misconducting of her affairs. She said last evening: “It was the fault of another attorney, who kept certain inpexsbu:k till too late. On_the very last day or the presentation of the bill of exceptions the other man kept them locked up in his desk, and Mr. Bates sent round for them five times without success.” Mrs. Martin concluded by speaking of Judge Coffey in a very emphatic aid uncomplimentary manner. —_——— McGlinchy Convicted. F. J. McGlinchy, team foreman for the Mar- ket-street Cable Company, was tried in Judge Joachimsen's court yesterday on the charge of battery, The complaining witness was David Cornfoot, 2208}6 Fillmore street. Last Wednes- day McGlinchy's men were carting off rocks from Fillmore street, and were leaving lots of stuff on theroadway. Cornfootremonstrated with them, when McGlinchey knocked him down. McGlinchy was convicted and will be sentenced to-da R Locked Up for Burglary. James Hanley, a hardened youth from Tele- graph Hill, and Gus Anderson, & union sailor, started out to indulge expensive appetites in flowing wine. They stole a case of champagne out of Danforth & Gilman’s warehouse, at Bat- tery street and Broadway, but before they could open & emall bottle the heavy hand of the law was laid upon them by Officérs Crosby and Henneberry, who locked them up et the North Harbor station and charged them with burglary. — MANY HELLR. A Sheol an Tmmense Apartment House in the Hindoo Belief. Itisa mystery to enlightened Western nations how the Hindoos ever managed to evolve such a frightfully exaggerated idea of hell—as much of an enigma, perhaps, as our fantastic ideasof the infernal re- gions will be to the more ' enlightened races of the coming ages.

J. Q. Adams. INSTALLATION OF A PASTOR. Hearty Encouragement to the Lo- cal French and Italian Missions. Tears flowed at the meeting of the pres- bytery at Westminster Church, on Fell street, yesterday afternoon when the ques- tion of accepting the resignation of Rev. John Q. Adams, the pastor, came up for consideration. Mr. Adams and his wife are now at Clifton Springs, N. Y. They are both impaired in health. The request that the presbytery concur in the decision of the congregation to accept the resigna- tion was up for discussion, and many pleasing things were said of the retiring pastor and his wife. Dr. Adams had built up Westminster Church. He had labored among his peo- ple for ten years and was respected and esteemed by all with whom he came in contact. Dr. Minton, Dr. Mackenzie and others spoke in the most affectionate terms | of him and his wife. They will return to San Francisco shortly, but Rev. Mr. Adams will vacate his pastorate on May 1. D. N. Gillies and W. K. Gutbrie, who have been studying for the ministry, were granted licenses to preach the gospel, | they having passed the necessary examina- tions. Soo Hoo Nam Art, a Chinaman, who was in this class for ecclesiastical ad- vancement, made an excellent speech in English. He told of his coming to Cali- fornia and his conversion to Christianity in 1875, how his people resented his change of heart, and gcw he subsequently re- turned to his native country and con- verted.his entire family and many others from heathenism. A committee was alppointed to_conduct the installation of Rev. F. A. Doane as pastor of the Mizpah Presbyterian Church, which will take place at 3 o’clock p. M. on Sunday next. Rev. James Woodworth, maderator of the presbytery, will preside and Rev. Dr. Mackenzie will preach the sermon, Rev. F. R. Farrand will deliver the charge to the pastor and Rev. H. N. Bevier will deliverthe charge to the people. Mr. Monroe was received. from the Benicia Presbytery. A motion by Dr. Smith to allow $250 for French work, the Oakland Presbytery to yote a similar amount, and $400 to be Rev. James Woodworth, Moderator. asked from the home mission, was passed, and the efforts of the Young People’s Presbyterian Association to raise for the Italian mission was indorsed. The tax committee reported favorably on tite 12 cents per capita for the expenses of the presbytery to the General Assembly, and the report was adopted. The presbytery adjourned to meet at 930 Sacramento street at 9 o’clock this morn- ing. FINANCES OF INDIA. A Smaller Deficit Than Its Government Anticipated. A telegram was.received by the Secretary of State for India from the Viceroy on Tuesday stating that the accounts for 1893-94 show a deficit of Rx.1,547,000, being Rx.246,000 better than anticipated last year. The revised estimates for 1894-95 show a surplus of Rx.990,000, giving an im- provement, apart from exchange, of Rx.3,156,000. The expenditure throughout is well within the estimates, and army savings, due to low prices, have been more than enough to meet excess charges, namely, Rx.393,000 for pay of the British army, and Rx.195,000 for Wagziri expedition. This last will cost an additional sum of Rx.90,000 in 1895-96. A general increase in the rate of pay of the native Sepoys is to take effect from July 1 next for 110,000 men; the increased cost will be Rx.260,000 per annum, and the charge will add to the Budget Estimate of next year Rx.180,000. (The charge is accepted as long foreseen and now urgent. A sum of Rx.150,000 is provided for mili tary preparations in conunection with the disturbances in Chitral. These charges of Rx.180,000 and Rx.150,000 reduce the sur- plus of Rx.376,000 to Rx.46,000, which is the surplus announced in the Budget.

Cures Disease When All Else Fails. IN EVERY CIVILIZED LAND IT IS A BLESSING. Is Used by Physicians in Every Community. jilndorsed by Thousands of Peo- | ple in California. In every civilized country people are now | taking Paine’s celery compound. Persons employed constantly indoors emerge from the long confinement of win- ter reduced in strength and nervous vital- ity. The need of a spring medicine for years impressed itself on the attention of a thinking people. But with a lack of a really valuable scien- tific preparation people were accustomed to take all sorts of home-made concoc- tions—some harmless, but none of any great value. Finally, in the famouslaboratory of Dart- mouth Medical School, Professor Edward E. Phelps, M.D., LL.D., discovered the | formula for Paine’s celery compound, the remedy that has become the standard nerve restorer, blood purifier and strength- ener from one end of the country to the other, the preparation that stands un- rivaled as— The world’s great spring remedy. Not only is this known to the people gen- erally to-day, but it is the one remedy in- physicians in-all cases of nervous debility. Since the appearance of Paine’s celery compound, when_ first prescribed by Pro- fessor Phelps, there has been no difference of opinion among scientific men as to its unrivaled merits. The reports of the many cases where this remarkable remedy has saved life and re- stored health, have again and again been given at length in the medical reviews and the newspapers, until to-day the whole country is familiar with the power of Paine’s celery compound over disease. More than one influential paper has spoken in editorial coiums of this great modern remedy as a remarkable instance of a scien- tific discovery, emanating from the very highest medical authority, and taken up later by the whole people, till to-day it is the recognized remedy of the world for all forms of weakness. No such complete agreement of the popu- lar belief and professional judgment ever before happened. Just now, when the new year—that isthe | spring—is overhauling the body and tryin, to arouse it to drive out disease, it is wel to know what todoin order to_ help the | good work along. When_the nerves count up the gains and losses of the winter, most hevery one is sure to find that he stands in need of a spring medicine to tone him up, to make richer and purer blood, and to make his nerves sound and _vigorous. The marvelous ability of rapidly recon- structing worn-out tissues, of purifying the blood and feeding tired nerves has won for Paine’s celery cormpound the written in- dorsement of thousands of careful physi- cians. It is afact much commented on that men and women of national reputation and prominence, educated people, who are careful what they employ when sick, have of their own accord sent ietterssiescribing fully their permanent recovery from rheu- matism, heart weakness, sleeplessness, debility, kidney troubles, and from dis- eases of the stomach and liver. 5 In all these cases of recovery from seri- ous disorders and the ?eneral feeble health that comes directly from a bad state of blood and impaired nerves, Paine’s celery compound has always removed disease and established health again. It begins to give its great help immediately. This is how it has made men and women come to speak of itas “‘the remedy that makes people weil.” This significant phrase has been repeated so often from mouth to mouth that it is now every- where inseparably associated with Paine’s celery compound,” not only by the Ehvsi- cians who daily preseribe it, but by the thousands of ailing people, young ana old, who go to it for aid and comfort. Take it now. “I have a dear little babe, and am well. Ithank Mrs. Pinkham for this, y and so could other motherless women. 1 was a victim of Fe- male troubles. Lydia E.
