He said that in 1894 he was chairman of the committee on permanent orgamzation of that club, and he thought that his committee reported in favor of a life of six months for the club. Still it might be true that the report adopted ordained that officers should remain in authority until _their & successors were interlopers. C. A. Faweett, C. A. Tabor and Morti- mer Smith contended that the “‘old”’ club was dead. It was urged on their part that the minates of that organization would secretary.

HORSE FLESH FOR FOWLS ket at Fruitvale. Clean Animal, and Its Flesh, if Healthy, Is Desirable. stock on horseflesh have cut the knees of those who feed the usual food, and thereis trouble at Fruitvale. In the Fruitvale district lying between Lynn and the terminus of Peralta avenue are numerous chicken ranches varying in size from one to five acres. Until the last few months they have been a source of profit to the owners of the once peaceful, quiet neighborhood. Now all this is changed. The trouble commenced when an en- terprising Portuguese saw a profitable speculation for himself, and obtained a small ranch on Nichol avenue not far dis- tant from the Hermitage. Iere he lo- cated and started up starving or disabled horses and opened up a slaughter-house. Then he proceeded to offer the chicken- raisers the meat at such cheap rates that it proved a great temptation, and the ma- desire to see a big city, jority of thenlx‘ have found its Jso 8 bg- Dining-room and Kitchen Furniture of ail grades: 1 0, I was taken t nanza. whole carcass can ought | 8180 500 vards Carpet.

This has enabled the dealers to increase their stock of pouitry and eggs so that they are now cheaper than ever. The places where horseflesh is used the chick- | en-raisers are receiving 11 cents in market for their eggs, which are retailed at 1214 cents a dozen. Those who are opposed to using the horseflesh as chicken food and compelled to compete with these prices, say chickens are without profit, as wheat, corn and scrap meat cost too much to feed hens whose eges bring only 11 cents a dozen in the { room; Sidel 11 Auction Bales GEO.

Chinese lottery dealers have en- r a tug-of-war with the Police For. = long time the attor- neys for the Chinese have been making ef- forts to defend their clients by impugning 1e motives of witnesses, demanding jury ials and finally attacking the constitu- tionality of the court. Considerable in- genuity has been shown in_these defenses, but they have all been nullified, and now nothing is left for the Chinese to do but to pay their fines or go to jail. They bave| ounced that they will go to jail rather fines, and have also expressed a | hat the City Council will soon tire | scial detective for each | ction, and that the warfare against will therefore die.

The Wheelmen to Have a Lantern Parade—A Young Man's Mar- riage Record. ALAMEDA, Car, March 29.—Judge Work. has | is a lover, in a quiet way, of a good horse, Ork Nas | and has a couple of fair steppers which he day he put a big bay colt through his pacesand showed those who think they have speedy goers that he was well along with the procession. In coming home, on Central avenue, the colt stumbled and fell. The Judge was driving in a road- cart, and was thrown violently out on the hard macadam. When picked up and ex- amined by a physician it was found that his left arm had been broken above and near the elbow. 1tis a bad fracture. In setting it it was found necessary to take out a piece of bone that had been splin- There is some fear that thearm will be stiff when it heals. Itiscertain that the accident will serve to keep the magistrate off the bench for some weeks to come. Alameda Wheelmen, ALAMEDA, Carn., March 29.—Captain Dodd of the Alameda Cyclers would like to get up a lantern parade and entertain- | ment to take place early in May. The | streets of Alameda being generally and perfectly macadamized would afford un- usual opportunities for a wheel display with Chinese lantern features. it has been settled that the finish of the annual relay race shall be at Morton street, on Central avenue. The races will turn off the San Leandroroad at High street,which leads straight ‘hrou%h the easterly end of the town. They will turn thence west on Central avenue, which is broad and ad- mirably paved and without cartracks or any obstruction. Too Much Married. ALAMEDA, Cav., March 29.—B. C. Aus- tin Jr. is in doubt as to his matrimonial status. Fannie Oneida Austin was re- cently granted a divorce from him in a San Francisco court, and the trial disclosed the fact that another woman in Colorado claimed his name. The evidence went to show that the Colorade woman was mar- ried to Austin in Carson City on June 21, 1895, A ceriilied record was produced showing this state of things to exist, thongh Austin denied it. Austin’s legi mate wife, who has just been awarded a divorce, learned of the facts through re- ceiving a letter from the Colorado woman. Things are, therefore, becoming interest- g for Mr. Austin. Railroad Commuters Complain, ALAMEDA, Can, March 29.—Com- muters on the narrow-gauge railroad com- plained recently to Division Superintend- ent Fillmore that crowds of rough and boisterous boys have been permitted to stand on the rear platforms of the cars, blocking the way of the other passengers. A prompt reply has been given, and the conductors are now under orders not to permit unybody to ride on the platforms. lodge conferred the amplified rank of Knight, with the aid of its celebrated team, on three esquires. As usual with | Oakland Lodge the Castle Hall was thronged with its members and visitors from sister lodges, all of whom compli- mented the officers and team for the artis tic and impressive manner in which the rank was conferred. This lodge during | the present term bas added ten new names to its roster and several applications are in sight, which portends a good-sized boom befare the close of this term. Oakland Lodge is continually add- ing new features to their method of con- ferring the several ranks. Only a short time ago they purchased a powerful stere- opticon lantern with views and incidents in the lives of Damon and Pythias; their latest addition being an orchestra, consisting of Professors Bonham, Merritt, Bernstein and Aiello, masters of the piano, cornet, violin and clarionet. Live Oak No. 17 meets every Wednesday night at Twelfth aud Franklin streets, On the night of March 18 this lodge conferred the knight rank on Esquires Bingham and Arnott. Piedmont No. 172 meets every Monday night at Twelfth and Franklin streets. Liberty Division No. 11, Uniform Rank, is one of tize latest attractions to the sessions of Piedmont Lodge. Amazon Lodge No. 181 meets every Mon- da{ night at Twenty-third avenue, East Oakland. The entertainment and smoker given by this lodge on the night of March 16 was a complete success in every detail.
