T0 STORM CASTLE ROSE, The Sheriff to Dispossess a Portuguese Noble at Warm Springs. His Castle Has Been Awarded by the Court to His Divorced Wife. OARLAND OFFICE SAN FrANCISCO CALL.} 908 Broadway, Sept. 18. Sheriff White has a big job on his hands to-morrow morning.. He has to go to Warm Springs to gain possession of a Portuguese nobleman’s ranch and put the donna in possession. Two deputies have already attempted the task, but Don Man- uel Rose Gefies the order of the Buperior Court, and declares that he will hold the fort against all comers. The trouble is the result of a suit for divorce. Don and Donna Rose are one of the wealthiest families in the Portuguese settlement, and about a year ago their martail troubles proved a source of amuse- ment rather than scandal in the Superior Court. Stockings filled with money disappeared as if by magic from the house, and Rose tried to make it appear that Mrs. Rose could produce them 1f she was so inclined. | The story of Mrs. Rose, however, impressed the court as being the most truthful, and she was granted a divorce and the ranch at Warm Springs. Rose has frequently promised to vacate the ranch in favor of his wife, and has also appealed the case to the Supreme Court. In his latter proceeding he neglected to | file the necessary bond to cover the prop- erty, and Attorney Dodge has decided that | the judgment of the Superior Court shall be carried out. (LATEST BERKELEY ITEMS, Dr. Setchell, the New Professor of Botany, to Arrive Soon. The Progressive Club Wishes to Bond the Town for Street Improvements. BERKELEY, CaL., Sept. 18.—Word has been received at the university that Dr. Satchell, recently of Yale, who has been appointed to fill the chair of botany, made | vacant by the resignation of Professor Ed- | ward L. Greene, will arrive in California about October 15. Considerable correspond- ence with eminent botanists of America was necessary before a man could be se- cured who was thoroughly capable of filling the position at Berkeley, since in | the technical study of the California flora | so many difficulties are involved. The re- port was current a short time ago that the | established might be changed, since the somewhat different, but late investigation revealed the fact that thereis no appre- hension on the pari of the present botan: cal staff. Dr. Setchell’s appointment is looked upon with much favor, as he issaid to_ be & man of deep learning and of broad mind. ‘Work of the Pregressive Club. | The West Berkeley Progressive Club | held their regular meeting last evening, at | which it was decided to hold a mass-meet- ing on next Tuesday evening for the pur- pose of agitating the establishment of the i bond system in the making of public im- | provement It was argued that the adop- | tion of this plan, besides being a relief to | m. property-owners, wlll give a great | imp public improvements in all parts of the town. Itis believed that not so | many citizens will protest against wor | being done as at present, jor the reason | that then the privilege of paying for work on easy terms will be extended to them. | Railroad Tracks Too High. Considerzbje complaint is being made at present by town residents concerning the condition of Stanford Park, where therail- road company has recently laid_its side- tracks across Addison street. In places | the tracks are several feet above the level | of the street, and no apparent effort has | been made to fill in around them so that | vehicles may cross. Investigation, how- ever, reveals the fact that that portion of what is called Addison street which | crosses Stanford place is mnot a public street, but the property of the rairoad company. College Boys Ride a Roller. A party of university boys last night took possession of a steam roller being | used 1n macadamizing Ellsworth street, and, after getting up steam, ran it through a number of streets of the town, finally leaving the machine at the Dana-street en- trance to the University of California grounds. A similar line of sport was in- dulged in last year during the construction of the new Mechanics’ building, and from lls and songs last night the party ¥ must have had a good time. | Brief News Notes.

THE DIAMOND RING RETURNED. It Was Not Pald For, Neither Was the Lawyer’s Handsome Of- fice Furniture. OARLAND OFFICE SAN FrANCISCO CALL,| 908 Broadway, Sept. 18. } Attorney Eugene P. Spear of Haywards is missing, and a couple of banks and a number of creditors in Oakland, Haywards and Los Angeles are searching for him. Walter Cox of Los Angeles and W. E. Hawley of this city have called in the aid of the police and the search for Mr. Spear is very keen. Attorney Spear set up a law office at Haywards about two years ago, and for a time was associated with Attorney Long, but for some time past he has done busi- ness for himself. His offices were fitted up in very luxurious style, and Mr. Spear cut a dash in Haywards society that com- pared favorably with his office. But a few days ago the office was despoiled, and the man that carted away the beautiful furni- Missing Attorney Spear of Haywards, ‘Who Gave Checks on Banks Where He Had No Money. [From a photograph.] ture to San Francisco said that the things had been bought on time and that the time had long since elapsed. Some time ago Mr. Spear was arrested for embezzlement, but he was acquitted. After that event his credit was strength- | ened and he went to greater lengths. Mr. Palmtag would like to collect $500 from Mr. Spear; Harry Collins, the San Fran- cisco s the banks repudiate, and Walter Cox of Los Angeles holds two checks on the bank at Haywards that are valueless. Mr. Hawley of this city holds a note that he cannot negotiate for 5 per cent of its face value, and several other creditors are also among the mourners. Two weeks ago last Monday night Mr, Cox came from Los Angelesand demanded Attorney Spear promised to meet Cox_the same night and take up his checks, but Mr. Cox waited two days and then returned. Mrs. Oakes of Haywards entrusted the | settling up of a small estate to Mr. Spear, | and she wonld also li e to see him. But all the search has so far failed to locate the missing attorney and his creditors feel that they bave a genuine grievance against him. Mr. Cox has gone to the length of swearing out warrants on* serious charges.

At the time Mr. Spear presented his tiancee with a handsome diamond engage- ment_ring. When the disappearance of Mr. Spear was made known to the San Francisco jewelers who supptied the ring they sent a messenger to Haywards and as a result the ring was returned three days ago. The latest creditor to make known his wants is the attorney’s Chinese laundry- man.

The Ex-Railroad Strike Leader Has at Last Obtained Work. At the meeting of the American Railway Union last evening Harry Knox was the recipient of the hearty congratulations of his brother railroad men. Knox, it will be remembered, was prominent in the late railroad strike, and he was an active worker in the cause of the strikers at Sac- ramento. In consequence of his activity in this direction he was put at the head of the railroad’s blacklist as soon as the trouble was over. He was unable to go back on the road, and bad luck seemed to have camped upon his trail. Every attempt to get into business or secure employment proved a failure, and for the past year and a half Knox has prac- tically been out of work. He and his friends openly asserted that other in- fluences than bad luck were at work. Kn ox expects soon to be out of harm’s way. He has had a positive promise of a position as motorman on the new Sutro streetcar line that will run from Central avenue to the beach. “1 really believe,”” said he, “that it is the only place in the State that I could get and hold. I am sure that no influence can be brought to bear upon Mayor Sutro that will cause him to discharge me for the part I took in the Southern Pacific railroad strike eighteen months ago. I will go to work on October 5.” THE STOCK MARKET. The Gold Hill stocks continued lively yesterday, especially on the noon informal session, when Challenge sold up to 99¢, 3400 shares; Confidence to $2 75, 1685 shares, and Yellow Jacket to 55c, 3000 shares. These were the best figures of the day except for Yellow Jacket, which advanced to 58c after the afternoon call. The other stocks were firm as a rule, but ontside of those mentioned business was not very brisk. NOTES. The Gray Eagle Mining Company has re-elected the old directors and officers for another year.
