The Supervisors received numerous bids to-aay for the construction of a bridge over the Arroyo del Valle Creek where it crosses the county road leading from Livermore to Mission San Jose. The bids were accompanied by plans and specifica- tions of the bidders, and represented one, two, and three spans, steel, wood and com- bination in material. It was finally de- cided to accept the plans and bid of Cotton 3ros. & Co. for a steel structure at a cost of $6150. Shields’ Claim. Attorney T.

It was undersiood when the nomination of the two men took place on last Wednes- day that one of them would withdraw, as they both had previously declared their intention not to enter the race if tke other was nominated. As a result Koch with- drew, and consequently Chairman Hirst of the local association took it upon him- self to declare the single remaining nomi- nee elected. The position is looked upon as being considerable of an honor, since sixteen colleges are represented in the association, including the universities of Michigan, Indiana, Chicago, Illinois, California, Ne- braska, De Pauw, Wisconsin, Iowa, Min- nesota, St. Albans, Lake Forest, North- western und Center College of Kentucky and the State University of Iowa.

MEN oF EXPERIENCE SEE THE DawN OF A BRIGHT FUTURE FOR ALAMEDA COUNTY. OARLAND OrFriceE Sax Fraxcisco CALL,) 908 Broadway, Oct. 21. § The franchise granted several months ago to Felix Chapplet of Oukland and D. Chisholm of Haywards is about to be used. ‘Within the past few days a large amount of rails and ties have been stored at Hay- wards for the purpose of commencing the building of the road. The projectors have until the 15th of next month to commence operations under their franchise. The road is to start in the Castro Valley, about a mile and a half from Haywards, and then on to Alvarado. It will come in from Haywards to Oakland in connection with the Haywards Electric Railway, thus giving a continuous service from this city to a point about thirty-six miles down the bay shore. Speaking of the matter yesterday Mr. Chapvpelet said: “We have met with every possible en- couragement and have no reason to com- plain. The property-owners along the proposed right of way have respohded with offers of assistance that show much interest in the development of Alameda County and are assisting us in every way ossible to establish and build the road. r\'e have already secured rights of way along nearly the entire distanceand every- thiug will be ready to commence opera- tions on a large scale by next spring. “We expected to begin this fall, but have been forced to delay matters on account of insufliciency of money. The hard-times period has destroyed the courage of most capitalists, and they were unwilling to in- vest their money in what they thought might be a hazardous enterprise. That feeling is generally dying out, and within the past few weeks a more healthy tone has been apparent. “Within the next three weeksenough work will be done to comply with the franchise, and after that construction will be slow until the spring. Xnough will be done, however, to prove that the promot- ers are 1n earnest.” The road from Oakland to Livermore, as outlined by the Vandercook franchise, has alrea had a marked effect on the town of Livermore. As Livermore isthe largest town between Oakland and Stockton it naturally feels a great interest in all rail- road enterprises that must pass through it. During the past week a scheme said to be backed by three Oakland millionaires has been made public. It isto construct a steam railroad from Oakland to Stock- ton, via Livermore. From Livermore to Oakland its proposed rou‘e parallels the Vandercook road, and this has cavsed Mr. Vandercook to declare that its promoters are not genuine in their professions. ““I think I see in this new enterprise,” said Mr. Vandercook to-day, “the same hand that has fought meall along for the purpose of preventing my obtaining the franchise for which ed. If they are in earnest, however, it w be all the bet- ter for Alameda County. for there is plenty of room in the large northern territory of this county for two roads. If their pur- fose is to hurt my project it is too late, as have secured the rights of way for nearly the whole distance of my route, and where I have not procured it we are prepared to purchase. Assoon asthe Supreme Court shall decide upon the validity of our fran- chise work will be pushed to the Corral Hollow mines with nl? possible speed.” The effect of these prospective roads has already made itself felt in Livermore, and there is a lively demand for a local Im- provement Association that will unite all thelive business men and property-owners for the purpose of advertising and develop- ing that town. W. R. Ellis, the proprietor of the Livermore Herald, said yesterday that an organization such as is spoken of would give tone and confidence to the community, and brighten prospects all around. “The society should have headquarters,” he said, “in some prominent part of town, fitted up with shelves and cases all filled with a nicely arranged display of the products of Livermore Valley. It is a remarkable fact that very few people are aware of the wealth of this valley. Our fruits, grain, wines and minerals are in themselves a guarantee of a great future. The people of the valley would undoubtedly take a great interest in the maintenance of such an exhibit, and I am sure would willingly contribute the choicest specimens from their farms, wineries and mine Livermore ought to have a public park, and as the tree-planting season is fast ap- proaching, it is pertinent to talk about that matter. ““The town is on the eve of a new exist- ence, and being the biggsst and best town between Oakland and Stockton, shoula bestir herself and begin to realize the op- portunities now offering her to press for- ward. TLivermore does not lack in people of culture and progressive ideas, but they need organization. The time is ripe for her citizens to lead out for the new Liver- more.” George Oakes of Haywards sees in the proposed new railroadsa possibility that the dream of his life regarding the Castro Valley may soon be realized. He regards Haywards as the natural center of every electric or steam railway system that wiil be operated in this county. “There is a brighter feeling,” said Mr. Oakes yesterday, “among the residents of the Castro and Livermore valleys than I have noticed 1n all the years I have resided in this county. The op; ortunity to ad- vance is now here, and igwe take advan- tage of it the coming year wiil be one of the most prosperous in the history of - meda County.” 45 CRADLE OF THE ARMY. ‘Why Mrs. Booth Is Partial Toward the ©Oakland Corps—Home of Many Officers. OARLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, 508 Broadway, Oct, 21 | Itis not generally known that Oakland is the birthplace of the Salvation Army on this coast. The local corps ranks as Cali- fornia No. 1, and when Mrs. Booth comes here on Tuesday and Wednesday she will be carrying out a part of her coast pro- gramme that is very agreeable, for the Booths think very highly of the Oakland corps. The Rescue Home at Beulah was the outcome of the work started in a little one- story cottage situated at Fruitvale, on the lineof the Trestle Glen Railroad, which has branched out into the large institution at Beulah, that has sheltered and saved hundreds of unfortunate girls within the past few years. It was the officers of the Oakland corps, headed by Captain Sam Wood, who were chosen as leaders in the famous charioteer movement for introducing the Salvation Army doctrines into remote places and has proved so successful. It was from this same corps that General William Booth, when here last winter, discovered an officer of musical ability, Captain Ed Taylor, whom he at once se- lected to accompany him while touring in America, Canada and England, and was so pleased with him that he has now been appointed as National musical special, subject to marching orders to any place in the Unitea States. Editor John Milsaps, now of the New York War Cry, who occu?xed the position of managing editor of the Pacific Coast War Cry since its publication, was one of the first of the origiral nine soldiers and officers who composed the Oakland corps when it was first started and held its meet- ings on Ninth street, near Broadway, in the rear of the old Morning Times office. It was the Oakland corps that a little less than two years ago inaugurated the Salvation Army work among the male vrisoners of San Quentin, & work that for the first time was inspected by Mrs Booth on this visit to the coast, and, next to the reserve work among women, has taken a place in her interest of California work. The Salvationists of Oakland consider it a bappy inspiration that led Adjutant Egner, now in Honolulu, when in charge of the corps in this city, to abproach Mrs. A. B. Gove, the only lady outside of the Sisters of Mercy who was permitted by the Governor to labor among the male prison- exs in the State prisons of California, To this lady went the adjutant to get her touse her influence in fzetting per- mission for the introduction of army work in San Quentin. Her efforts, given freely, met with signal success in gaining per- mission from the prison authorities for the army to prosecute oper-air work among the convicts. ST Both the Commissioners and Warden Hale saw the advisability of such work and indorsed it forthwith, and the work has since beex in charge of Sergeant-Major Brown, a well-known contractor in this city and a Salvation Army veteran of many spiritual victories. The San Quentin corps is known as an outpost of the Oakland corps and services are held every alternate Sunday. The prison corps has now nearly fifty ‘soldiers and recruits, many of them being long- termers, foar being under life sentence, and saddest of all, one under sentence of death. These hallelujah lads are, of course, un- able to wear the upiform of the Salvation Army, any deviation from the regulation convicts’ garb not being legally permis- sible. Most of them, however, have a bit of the army tri-colored ribbon fastened to the lapel of their coats, and all of them possess a goodly portion of the army spirit that shines through their lives and chal- lenges contradiction. In speaking of this work Mrs. Booth was very enthusiastic, and said: *‘My heart and sympathy goes out to those dear ones within tfxa prison walls who are standing firmly and fichting stanchly in the ranks of the Salvation Army, wearing stripes in his name, ‘by whose stripes we are healed.” ” She expresses herself as very hopeful for the future of this branch of work upon the lives of those who may pass cutward into the world from the prison doors better men than when the gates of the prison first closed upon them. “The constitution of the Salvation Army is broaa and deep as the scope of the sal- vation it teaches, making ample provision and offering immeasurable opportunitiesfor | the very work that is now going so rapidly forward within walls of San Quentin,” is Mrs. Booth’s opinion of the prison work, | with which she is greatly pleased, and gives due credit to the progressive officers of the Oakland corps for its inauguration. CHARGED WITH CRUELTY AN ALAMEDA YOUNGSTER WHO HAS DEVELOPED A MANIA FOR RUNNING AWAY. It Is CHARGED THAT His FoSTER PARENTS HAVE TREATED Him CRUELLY. ALAMEDA, Car, Oct. 21.—Willie Me- Inerney, the 12-year-old adopted son of Angus McInerney, has gained consider- able notoriety for himself since he became a resident of Alamena, about three months ago. Public attention was first called to him about two months ago when he ran away from home, and returned about a week later, saying that he had been kidnaped by two Italians, who, according to his story, tied hirm to a tree back of Fruitvale, where he remained for two davs. He has left home several times since, and on cach occasion Mrs. McInerney showed much anxiety. The hoy is now in charge of Mrs. Nissen of Oak sireet, and she is detaining him until Mrs. Sanford of the Humane Society makes an investigation. It is now claimed that the McInerneys have treated him very cruelly. Dr. Carpenter, who is an officer of the Humane Society, visited the boy yesterday to learn what he could about, the matter. ' Mrs. Nissen stated that the boy was an heir to a large tract of land near Seattle which would be distributed when the boy attained his majority, and that the McInerneys are receiving pay for bis keeping. This, however, the laiter de- nies, and states that the boy was adopted seven years ago at Seattle and that Father Sullivan has charge of the adoption pa- ers. 5 The boy will most likely be turned over to the Humane Society. Municipal Afairs. At the meeting of the City Trustees this evening the request of Treasurer Wheeler for a deputy for two months was denied. Ordinance 290, as amended by request of the Board of Health, was passed. Tuber- culosis, mumps and chicken-pox are now included in the list of contagious diseases. No attention having been paid by the railroad company to the request of the board to have a flagman placed at the crossing on Railroad avenue, the City At- torney was ordered to draw up an ordi- nance covering the matter to be considered at the next meeting. The Library Trustees will be invited to confer with the board on Wednesday even- ing next, at 8 o’clock, as to the removal of the Free Library to the new City Hall, now nearing completion. The Match Shoot Was a Tie. Captain W. F. Chipman of Company G, N. G. C., anda Captain L. H. Turner of the Naval Battalion shot a match Sunday afternoon against Captain C. C. Dennis and Officer Riehl of the Naval Battalion. The match resulted in & tie. Captain Chipman’s score was 161, Captain ‘Curner 153, and Dennis and Riehl 157 each. The members of Company G also had a prac- tice shoot on their new High-street range. The Terrace Baths Changes Hunds. W. B. Carr of Kern County has pur- chased the Terrace Baths atS"Nese E‘:’nd. Mr. Carr held a mortgage on the baths when the late C. A. Edson, who was shot and killed by Carl Becker, owned them, which he has foreclosed in order to secure bimself. Mr. Carr_has taken up his home in the Travers residence on San Jose ave- nne, and intends to make extensive im- Pprovements. Died From Consumption. Peter Boreo, who was taken seriously i on Saturday afternoon while on his vu}s: u'; San Francisco on the broad-gauge local, died at his residence, on the corner of Pa. cific avenue and Grand street, last night. He was 50 years of age and a native of italy. He ‘was suffering from consump- tion, which was the cause of his death. —————— “PARD” BASSETT ANGRY. He and Councilman Manuel Nearly Come to Blows, OAKLAND, CaL., Oct. 21.—*Q1d Pard” Bassett enlivened the Council meeting to- night with an attack on Chairman Manuel, and for a while it looked as if blows would be struck. Manuel called for police pro- tection, and the row wasonly quieted when 2 policeman appeared on the scene. he affair grew out of a publication in an everning paper to-dav of an article relating to crematories for the city, wherein one firm in the East offered to make it re- munerative for Manuel to assist them. The article referred to Bassett as cham- pioning their cause, but evidently for the purpose of personal gain. | “Manuel did this dirty, cowardly trick,” exclaimed Old Pard, in a passion, “‘to cast refiection on me. He has been going about the street telling he had something up his sleeve for me, which is nothing less than cowardly. It1s one that none but a cow- ardly cur,a coward of a man, would do.” At this juncture Bassett, who had been pacing the floor while speaking, walked over to where Manuel had taken his seat after calling a colleague to the chair, and, shaking his fist in his face, continued: “This man goes about with something up his sleeve threatening me.” ; Here Manuel called on the chair for a sergeant-at-arms to protect him, and the clerk sent down for a policeman. “This man used worse language toward me,”’ continued Bassett, “last week, but 1L said nothing to him. Iwant him tounder- stand I am ready for anything of the up- the-sleeve-order he has ready for me.”” Manuel denounced him as “a dirty, con- temptible liar, for whom I have no respect. As for any threats, I have never made any, and would not stoop to such acts.” Bassett—I can produce the man who says you have said you had something up your sleeve for me. . Manuel—Well, that man, like you, lies. Bassett—I am ready for whatever you have up your sleeve for me and will take it now. At this he stepped toward Manuel, but an officer came into the room and he re- sumed his seat amid the laughter of the lobby, who up to that point had held their breath for fear there would be a shooting scrape. THE SHERIFF AND YOUTH, MORE TROUBLE OVER ALA- MEDA COUNTY'S FEMALE DEPUTY. Says SHE WAs SUPPLANTED BY 4 Young LaADY BECAUSE OF HEeR WRINKLES. Once more there is trouble as to the ap- vointment of a lady Deputy Sheriff for Alameda County. When the Populist Sheriff, C. B. White, first took office, he created some surprise by appointing Mrs. Aram, a Populist campaign speaker, one of his deputies. It was the firsttimea woman had been connected with the Sheriff’s office. Mrs. Aram gave great satisfaction for a time, but in the course of a few months her appointment was revoked. There was consternation in the female ranks of the party, which was not allayed when Sheriff ‘White announced that the cause of the revocation was Mrs. Aram’s tongue. He declared it to be impossible to preserve the secrecy that is frequently necessary in the fulfillment of his duty as Sheriff. When questioned he briefly declared “The lady talzed too much. The successor to Mrs. Aram was Mrs. Leslie, an English woman. Her appoint- ment was a great disappointment to the many friends of Mrs. Aram, and for some time it looked as though the Populist party might split over the female deputy- ship. Mrs. Leslie filled the office for a few months with apparent satisfaction and never lost an opportunity of calling atten- tion to the fact that she 'had succeeded in defeating Mrs. Aram. But Mrs. Leslie’s term of office also Eroved to be short-lived, and now she finds erself out in the cold and, like Mrs. Aram, is highly incensed at the action of the Sheriff. The thorn in Mrs. Leslie’s side is that she was succeeded by a much ijoumzer and more handsome woman. er successor is a Miss Aiken, a young lady about 25 years of age. No reason was given Mrs. Leslie when she was dropped, but that lady declaresshe has found one. “The real trouble,”’ said Mrs. Leslie yes- terday, ““is that the Sheriff is tired of hav- ing old women in his office, and prefers the presence of a younger lady. Aee and beauty, however, should not be permitted to cause the dismissal of a faithful servant such as I have been to the county when- ever called upon.”” PHYSBICLIANS.
