As soon as ‘the Commissioners met Kaufman tendered his resignation, which was at e accept- ed, Mayor Davie voting no. 1 {ayor offered resolutions appoint- dng L. M. Frick of Lorin and L. M.

The estate of John Curry, anold Ala- medan, who died recently at Fabiola Hos- pital, will eause some one trouble. Public ‘Administrator Knight has letters upon the estate and believes that the property has been concealed,. So far he has not been successful in tracing what has become of the old man’s wealth. Mr. Curry was credited with having con- siderable wealth a few years ago, but whether he left any property is the prob- Jem Knight-with the assistance of the S did_not consult me,” said the | | perior Court wili try to prove. He will have William W. Norris and John F. Bur- | ris tell what they know about Curry's af- fairs. Mr. Burris is suspected of having knowledge of the whereabouts of some of Curry’s property. It is also bélieved he knows where a will made by the old man has been hidden in_behalf of some one un- known to the public administrator. Mr. Norris and Mr. Burris have both been cited to appear in the Superior Court for exam- ination. The hearing. has been set for October 8. - Cannot Get Her Fees. Mrs. Sanford, secretary of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, can- not get her fees for the past month. The law provides that all fines collected in cases where the society prosecutes shall be paid to the secretary, and so far the Police Court Clerk has handed them to her each month. Recently it has been discovered that all moneys paid into court must be handed by the Clerk to the Treasurer. This policy was pursued this month, and now that the money is in the treasury there is no way of getting'it out, and Mrs. Sanford loses $70. This point will probably be settled forth- with, as Mrs. Sanford expects to get a small fortune for her society out of the dog-fighters recently arrested. The Wilmerding Committee. There are twenty-three members of the committee appointed to solicit subsciptions for the Wilmerding School site, and they are all working to obtain_the $20,000 nec- essary for that purpose. The latest to re- gort is P. E. Bowles of the First National ank. Hislist is as follows: William J. Dingee $100, Victor H. Metcalf $100, Wil- liam G. Henshaw $100, F. M. Smith $100, J. E. McElrath $100, J. S. Emery $100, Thomas Prather $100, P. E Bowles §100, Hannah 8. Crane §100, John R. Glascock $50, Mary A. Blow $50, W. H. Chickering , Theo. Gier $50, G. W. Percy $25. About $10,000 has been subscribed so far. Diphtheria in the County. Health Officer J. M. Young of Washing- ton Township has reported to the Board of Supervisors ihat there are several cases of diphtheria in the Sheridan School dis- trict. The officer says that as a large per- centage of the families are very poor the county should furnish medicines and dis- infectants, Supervisor Bailey has been mlr_nhnrized to purchase the necessary sup- plies. The Boogar Contes| The contest of the will of Philip Boogar | by his widow, Catherine Boogar, will be- gin to-morrow before Judge Greene. ‘There is a small army of attorneys engaged in the trial, and it looks as though the estate might be pretty well distributed before the contest is over. The balance of the week has been reserved for the case. Itisru- mored that some efforts are being made to effect a compromise. A Lower Rating. Although the residents of Fruitvale have a postoffice again they cannot purchase a money-order. When' they wish one they have to go to Oakland or S8an Francisco and this causes much dissatifaction. At the Macdonough. To-night will be bicycie night at the Macdonough Theater, ana judging from the preparations made by the local clubs there will be a big turnout of wheel en- thusiasts. HISTOR_Y‘ OF A DAY. Alameda County Happenings Told in Brief Chapters. OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, 908 Broadway, Oct. 1. B. C. Everson was arrested at ‘Berkeley on a charge of felony 1n making two deeds to the same property. Mrs. E. Wetherbee of Fruitvale returned a journey through Europe extending ‘er several months. Clara Poleman has been granted a divorce from Edwin Poleman on the ground of the de fendant’s extreme cruelty. 1 The sentence of Williamn Butts, convicted of manslaughter for killing W. A. Beeney, has | gone over until next Monday. The sum of £1256 was turned into the eity treasury by Police Court Cierk Crawford as the receipts of the court for the month of Septem- ber from fines and forfeitures. : Augusta Blachree has been appointed admin- istratrix of the estate of her husband, who committed suicide some _tlmelc; by cutting his throat with a piece of broken bottle. J. D. Reid, whose mental eccentricities are said to be due to drugs and dissipation, was examined yesterday as to his sanity. He was not considered a fit subject for an asylum. John Kearns, who pleaded guilty yesterday to eutering the house of the Portuguese priest on Chestnut streetand stealing 10 cents, stands a chance of going to 8an Quentin for five years. Clara H. Patterson, who has been sppointed administratrix of the estate of her aeceased husband, George W. Patterson, is required to give a bond of $150,000. - The estate is valued a1 $500,000. The eity treasury is nearly depleted. This month’s report shows that the cash deposited to the c¢ity’s credit in the varioas banks amounts to $42,196 72. The monthly expenses will exceed this sum. A deed was placed on record this afternoon at the County Recorder’s office trausferring the Athenian Club block, on Fourteenth street, from William. J. Diugee to Frederick Delger. The block was sold for $130,000. The cost bill for court expenses in the trial of the-case of the city against the Oakland Water Front Company was filed this afternoon with the County Clerk by the attorney for the city. The bill amounts to $1458 97 and in- cludes the.stenographer's work during the forty-nine days the trial consumed. The bill must be met by the water front company. JAPANESE IMMIGRATION. Representatives of the Mikado in British Columbia Ordered to Have Paupers Returned. The fruits of Labor Commissioner Fitz- gerald’s investigation of Japanese immi- gration are becoming manifest. John Derby, the storekeeper on the steamer Gaelic, has given him the informa- tion that the diplomatic service of Japan has instructed its representatives in British Columbia to cause to be returned all Jap- #nese emigrants en route to the United coming to this country for purposes of ed- ucation or to go into some commercial business. Immigrants claiming to be students or merchants will have to possess funds enough to substantiate their pretensions. The effect of these instructions, if carried { out, would be to exclude paupers and farm laborers. - Leslie Cullom, the special agent of the United States Treasury Department at Port Townsend, is giving this matter some vigorous attention too. He has written to Mr. Fitzgerald for full informa.on on the subject of Japanese immigration by the British Columbia route. 0SS OF HANHOOD. URED IN 20 DAYS by DR.

PREPARING FOR DIVORCE A Guardian Appointed for the Adams Boy Who Wedded a Widow. THE YOUNG WIFE IS CALM. Another Chapter of the Interesting Matrimonial Troubles of Fred Adams. OAKLAND OFFICE 8AN FRANCISCO CALL, 908 Broadway, October 1. } Fred Adams, the minor husband of Mrs. J. Isabelle Adamis, has a guardian. The fact was made public to-day that he peti- tioned the Superior Court to appoint a guardian last Friday. Every effort was made to keep the affair a secret, but when Judge Frick approved the bond this morn- ing the whole matter was exposed. In his petition the boy-husband sets forth that he is over 14 and under 20 years of age and has an estate valued at $40,000, which requires the care of some one older than himself until he shall have obtained his majority. His brother, James C. Adams, aged 34 years, is declared in the petition to be the boy’s choice and he has been appointed by the court. The appointment of & guardian for Fred Mrs. J. Isabelle Adams. Adams is another chapter between his marriage at Martinez some weeks ago and the inevitable divorce that is threatened. As young Adams is of such tender years it was represented that he was made the vic- tim of a designing woman, but Adams, al- thou%h young, is smart for his years, and he will have greatv difficulty in explalning why he stated that he was 21 when he took out the marriage license. As his estate is in the hands of executors till he comes of age it is somewhat unusual for any one so situated to apply for a guardian when living at home with his family. It is sur- mised that it is a preliminary of a divorce suit that will be instituted by the guardian on behalf of his ward. In such an event it would be a hard matter for.the divorced wife to obtain alimony. Miss Isabelle J. Potter, who was married to Fred Adams, has shown a rare discre- tion in discussing her affairs since the secret marriage was made public. Al- though the Adamsfamily have made much inquiry they have not been able to prove the allegation that Mrs. Fred Adams is an adventuress. .She simply lavs back and rests on her rights. She claims that she is lezally married to Adams; thatshe has offered to live with ber husband and has giemnndcd recogrnition and support from m. I married Fred in good faith,” she said, “‘at his earnest request. At the time of the marriage I did not know he was heir to a portion of an estate. Now that Iam hislawful wife [deem it my duty to protect my character from all that has been said about me. I have thought all along that Fred has been induced to stay away from me through the influence of his family, and was anxious to meet him personally. Now that I have seen him I am satistied that the influence of his relatives has been stronger than the influence of his wife.” The members of the Adams family re- fuse to tell of their plans, but it isgen- efally believed that a suit will be brought to have the marriage annulled. In suchan event Mrs. Adams will probably make the most of the false swearing regarding her husband’s age.

ALAMEDA, CaL., Oct. 1. — Seymour Arada has been awarded $200 and costs in his suit against the Alameda and Oakland Railway Company. Arada was a passen- ger on a car on July 4, and was ejected by a conductor, who claimed that he did mot pay hisfare, but Arada contended that he did, and brought suit for damages in the sum of $299. The case will be appealed to the Superior Court by the company, which wants to know what are the rights of a conductor who honestly believed that a :;uunger had not paid hus fare and ejected im. Finance Committee Organized. The Wumerding schoolsite finande com- mittee, appointed by the chairman of the Board of Trustees recently, organ- ized last evening by the election of Henry Sevening president, and the Bank of Alameda treasirer. Messrs. Sevening, Forderer, Xnowland, Van Sicklen an Payne eacl subseribed $100 toward the urchase of a schoolsite, which will cost ?10,0004 Before the meeting closed $800 had been pledged. Dr. C. L. Tisdale, Charles E. Naylor and Superintendent of Schools Sullivan were appointed a com- mittee to prepare an address setting forth the advantages which the school would result in bringing to Alameda. The mat- ter of ulecfing 4 site will probably be de- termined in the next two weeks. The City Tax Levy. The City Board of Trustees held an ex- ecutive session last av&nxing after adjourn- ment to consider the levy. City Clerk Lamborn submitted his statement, show- g that $120 would be required, but no definite action was taken. It was the gen- eral-opinion of the City Trustees that the incandescent plant should be enlarged. Trustee Lydecker spoke of the necessity of another fire engine and the absolute need of more firehose. The $1025 paid out of the bond fund for interest will be made up. The north and south side receivin sewers will probably be extended eastward, and it is also proposed to filn $600 to the exempt firemen’s relief fund. B Contemplate a Circular Track. The building of ajcircular track was dis- cussed by the members of the Alameda Driving Association at their meeting last evening. A. H. Cohen also reported that the Southern Pacific and the Alameda and Oakland electric com})anies were contem: plating the building of a track on the filled- in land southof the cotton-mills on the opposite side of the estuary. The Alameda Driving Association, the Reliance Athletic Club and kindred organizations have been invited to co-operate.” A committee will be appointed by Judge Ellsworth to inves- tigate the matter. . Taxpayers Aroused. z A meeting of prominent taxpayers was held this evening in the parlors of the Alameda Bank to protest against the pro- osed tax levy of $120 on the $100. The ity Trustees were invited to be present, but did not put in an appearance. The meeting organized by the election of Emery Sevening as president and D. L. Randolph secretary. A committee of three was appointed to dr.aw ug resolutions pro- testing against making the tax levy more than §1 on_the $100 valuation. Another meeting will be held in a day or two to further discuss the proposition. Thinning Out the Schools. At the meeting of the Board of Educa- tion this evening Chairman Tisdale made the announcement that the thinning out the crowded schools had been completed. In the Haight School there was one room in which more than fifty pupils were seated. Much better work was being done in consequence of thinning out. Director Brown called attention to the bad condi- tion of the Wilson School, and recom- mended thata coat of paint and asphaltuia be put on the roof. he midsummer vacation will begin on Monday, October 7, and last one week. The Polemans Divorced. Clara Poleman has been granted a di- vorce from Edwin Poleman on the ground of extreme cruelty. The plaintiff was awarded the custody of the minor child, Herbert, and the defendant the child Er- win. The property on San Antonio ave- nue and Walnut street, in_ this city, was given to Mrs. Poleman and personal prop- erty to defenaant. The defendant . was also required to pay $1000 to Mrs. Poleman in full for all alimony, counsel fees and costs and claim of maintenance by plaintiff in her own behalf and minor child, The McDonnell Farm Leased. George Y. Sauza has leased the eighteen- acre farm of Captain R. A. McDonnell on Bay Farm Island for five years at a yearl, rental of $900 for the first three years an $350 for the latter two. WHOLEHOLINESS FALLS A Devotee’s Husband Objects to Bathtub Bap- tism. Some Pecullar Articles of Falth Ad- vocated by an Ex-Presbyterian Minister. 0AKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, 908 Broadway, Oct. 1. } The publication in I'HE CALL of the bap- tism in a bathtub of Mrs. Lasher of East Oakland has brought more notoriety to Reyv. Mr. Young's Whole Holiness Mission than that gentleman cares about, and has also been the means of decreasing the membership by one. The lady’s husband had no idea that his wife was infatuated with the teachings in the peculiar colony on San Pablo avenue, and at once ordered all connection with the mission severed. Another event. that has occurred to shake the faith of many of Mr. Young’s admirers, is his treatment of his oldest boy. A few nights ago the lad was seen by several people with his neck in a most disgraceful condition from scratches and cats. Inquiry proved that the wounds were inflicted by the aavocate of the new doctrine, because his son would persist in thinking for bim- self. The affair was reported to the Hu- mane Society and the agent stated that she considered the charge against Young proved, but that the boy was just above the age of 16 and thatis the limit of age within which they confine their work. The parent, however, was instructed that his conduct toward his son was under surveillance. The institution presided over by Rev. F. F. Young is somewhat unique and is run on communistic principles. Young came from Washington State with his wife and children, where he had labored for some years asa missionary among the Indians, after leaving the Presbytérian' church, where he had been regularly ordained. When he landed in Oakland he at once set up a new sect of religion, the Whole Holiness, for religious enthusiasts who could not find an abiding place in any of the churches. He succeeded in gathering around him about twenty-five families and immedi- ately started to preach against his follow- ers permitting their children to attend schools “where the word of God was ig- nored.”” This included the public, paro- chial schools and all local colleges and seminaries, so those who had children in such institutions were advised to withdraw their patronage, and a faith school was in- augurated, with Mr. Young as principal. he school is conducted on a very unique plan, and is said to- be carried on entirely by faith. The regulations are of the most strait- laced kind, the doctrines of the Bible are considered the first rudiments of a child’s education, and reading, writing and arith- metic are taught alternately with scrip- tural readings. The caly rule used in the schoolroom is the golden rule. Moral suasion is success- fully demonstrated in the schoolroom. The children are credited with being well behaved and as demure as the boys and Firla of the old* Puritan days in New Eng- and. When a boy throws a paper wad at one of the little maidens the offender does not receive the deserved trouncing, but is solemnly led from his seat to the penitent form and prayed for until the culprit shows signs of repentance; then he is allowed to go under promise that he “will sin no more.” 2 The school up to date has been ably sup- ported by Mr. Young’s wonderful faith and liberal donations from his flock, but during the past few days the receipts have wofully fallen off. Severa] families live in the building, and to a certain extent they keep house like one large family. ' Re- cently, however, there has been a sudden falling off, and at last night’s meeting the faithful were ordered to pray for next month’s rent. e REAL ESTATE TRANSAOTIONS.

Because of the fact that a wo- man best under- stands a_wo- man’sills. What man ever suf- fered a “single pang like unto woman ? Man works from theory only. ‘Why do tens of thousands of women write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., telling their most secret thoughts ? Because they know that their letters go straight to the hands of a woman, are opened, read, and answered by a woman, Wwho as a woman has made woman’s ills a life study, and because she never fails them, and cures cases which. the doctor cannot. The lady who asks that the following letter. be published, gives concisely the uniform expression of gratitude con- tained in thousands of other letters in Mrs. Pinkham’s possession. “For eight years I suffered with neu- ralgia of the womb, backache, severo pains all through mybody, and kid- ney trouble. None of the doe- tors did me any good. I took twelve bottles of your Vegetable Compound, .and cannot thank you enough for the relief. I found. “I am now well cured of all those pains. I should advise every woman to take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound who has any female trouble. I had a friend who was to go under an -operation. I advised her first to try the Compound.
