Burglar Bradley Confesses—Miss Mi- chaels Dies From Injuries in the Gymnasium. BERKELEY, Carn, Nov. 22.—W. E. Topsham, manager of the Berkeley Elec- tric-light Company, said to-day concerning the position of the corporation with refer- ence to the communication from the Board of Town Trustees ordering that the electric company place arc lights at the in- tersection of certain streets, which the | company has refused to recognize: ““The contract between the town and this company is to light the town of Berkeley by means of the town plant, upon which the company agreed to make the necessary improvements and repairs at its expense and to return and surrender the same at the expiration of said contract. [be contract also relates that the com- pany shall furnish light as the Board of Trustees of the town of Berkeley may order at the same price and subject to the same conditions as the others. In place the company claims that the con- struction of new lines is not necessary improvements. In the second place, the company only agreed to furnish additional | lights at the same price and npon the same | conditions as the others, and.the p: pal | condition of the others was that they were | operated and furnished by means of the town plant. | “Third, the board could, according to their interpretation of the contract, com- | pel the company to extend its lines over | the whole town at a costof $100,000 or more, which would all belong to the town at the expiration of the contract.

U. Wants Him Read Out of the Party. The Official Had Use for Labor Unions Only While He Was in Need of Votes. E 0AKLAND OFFICE SAN FrANCISCO CALT,) 908 Broadway, Nov. f A section of the labor element of the People’s party, headed by T. J, Roberts, ex-president of the A. R. U., is not at all satistied with the actions of Sheriff White, and has inaugurated a small campaign to make him unpopular with his party. It is claimed that he has not obeyed the platform on whith he was elected, and if his opponents can muster enough strength they will have the Populist Sheriff read out of the party. “One of the planks in the Populist plat- form at the last county election,” said T. J. Roberts to-day, ‘‘declared in favor of a 25 per cent cut in salaries. and yet our Pop- ulist Sheriff was one of tle first to make a kick when the cut was threatened. The and Sheriff W giving most of the printing from his cfiice to the pluocratic press that he so roundly condemned before election, and leaves the reform papers to zet along as best they can. Before the election Sheriff White waa a great friend of organized labor, so much so that he joinea the Federal Labor Union. Before he was in oftice a month Le told me that organized labor had been a curse to this country, and had driven the rising genera- tion into the gutter and made hoodlums of our boy T called his attention to the fact that he had joined a labor union and he said, ‘Yes, [ did join one, but only for the harm I might doit.” “‘Can it be expected that organized labor can support such men as that?

Vheat-growing doesn’t pay any more in Califorma. Argentine has developed her ability to supply the buyinz markets for that product and she “stands between California anda the European markets, but there are hundreds of other products that will pay. 3 Electricity is going to make this part of California one of the wonders of the world. Times are not hard here when compared to the existing conditions that one reads about as prevailing in Nebraska, Kansas and other surrounding States. The curse of California_has been specu- lation, but that era of speculation is rapidly passing. Our people are ceasing to talk politics all day and loafiug on the street corner. They don’t spend so much money for whisky as they forme:ly did; they raise what they eat and largely do without what they do not raise; they sell something every time they come to town; they are Americans and have the Amer- ican industry, energy and independence. It raisins do sell in Fresno County for 114 cents per pound the grower can make wages, and if wheat brings only 75 cents per hundred in Tulare that won't send the wheat-grower to the poorhouse.

The hunt for Bandit Crowley has been given up. 1t is supposed that the cszaped convict is out of the county, and probably out of the State. He lived within a few miles of Oakland on the much-frequented county road while his phomgraphe were in every rogues' gallery, so it is argued that he must be a clever hand at disguising bimself. The cached goods recovered at his cabin are at the Sheriff’s office. Many of them are awaiting owners. Reception of Widows. James M.

Durrant has purchased .a dia- mond stud from Aaron Abbott, a fellow- prisoner. Although the gem not un- usually large, it nevertheless, of the pure water variety, consequently, to say the least, Durrant “is proud of his posses- sion. An opinion has been hazarded that Durrant simply advanced money on the stone, or, in other words, was running a pawnbroking business within the narrow walls of the jail, but this is evidently without foundation, as Durrant possesses | a clean bill of sale for the property. The | bill reads as follows: SAN FrANcIsco, November 20, 1895. Recelved of W. H. T.

TARKDT PAYHS SHLRY | | The Founder of the West Oak- land Manse Suddenly Resigns. The Second Congregational Church Fails to Raise a Thousand a Year. OAKLAND OFFICE, SAN FrANcrsco CALL,) 908 Broadway. Nov. 22. | The founder of the West Oakland Manse, Rev. Frank E. Hinckly, has been forced to resign becanse his congregation cannot pay him his promised salary of $1000 per year. Mr, Hinckly was a Chicago reporter and later was private secretary to Rev. Dr. | Gunsaulus. When he came to Oakland he was not an ordained minister, but he | took charge of ihe Second Congregational Church in West Oakland and at once set to work to build up a name for the church and its branch work. He inaugurated the Manse on the principles tnat govern the celebrated Hull House in Chicago and carried it successfully along for a vear. Some months ago he” was examined by a board of ministsrs and was ordained and instailed as pastor of the church. The Manse and kindred organizations :ert the pastor a zood deal from what the elder members of the congregzation con- sidered to be orthodox charch work. They | complainea and gradually fell off in their | subscriptions to the church expenses, in- | The wonders of California can be written of and spoken about interminabl San | | Dieg8 canboast of bay and climate; Los | Angeles of her oranee groves; Santa Clara | | of her prunes; Monterey of her apples and “spuds’; Sacramento of tules agd varied products: Sonoma of her grapes and chickens; Marin of Her dairy products; Humboldt of her timber and coal; Shasta and Amador of their gold; but the big San Joaquin Valley produces all the varied vroducts of the other counties of the State; and wherever enterprises of horti- culiture, agriculture or stock-raising have | | been intelligently located, there the pro- | fusion of products from the soil is so | phenominal that single illustrations | would take up the entire columns of Tug ! CALL to the exclusion of all other matters. Let one 1llustration suffice of an | orchard’s products in Tulare County, | which county, by- the way, represents_a | good large sfice of this big valley; said orchard is composed of peach and prune | trees principaily, four years oid. The | peach trees are ten 1nches in body diam- eter and prunes eight to nine inches. From 112 acres of peach trees there were zatherea 1100 tons of fruit, and 100 acres "|of prune trees yieided 141 tons dried | products this season. Irom a Jemon grove seven years planted each tree vielded six boxes of commercial lemons, On the table i the office of one of Tulare | County’s new papers are two pears grown | | in this county that weigh 714 pounds, the | larger weighing 4 pounds and measuring 1163; inches in circumference and 2014 | inches lengthwise. So much to illustrate | one part of this big valley’s wonders in fruit production. Other counties of the valley, doubtless, can show ub equally as good. Let the output of the agriculturist and stock-raiser speak for them. The Kaweah River, rising among the eternal snows of Mount Whitney, isieing harnessed for the application of eleetrical | power to the uses of Tulare County’s ci zens. Kern County is being placed under man’s _control, so that Los Angeles, 108 miles distant, may have the vrivilege of using the lighting made for them by man harnessing nature's forces existing in Kern County. Fresno County is engaged with the forces of Kings River, in order that her izens may cnufiv equally as good power. Kings County, “Baby Kings,” invites the traveler to investigate her artesian water tlow and natural gas. Madera, with her miles of flumes and tremendous output of sugar-pine lumber from the high Sierras, invites the investigation of the lamber- men, Electrical power furnished from nature’s rivers solves the irrigation problem of our valleys, vast and rich plains.
