Trustees Advised to Have Constructed a Cement Bottom for the Berryman Tank. BERKELEY, Car., July 19.—Dr. H. N. Rowell, Health Officer of Berkeley, has sjust completed an analysis of the water supply of the town, made at the instance of several complainers who declared that there was an objectionable odor about the water. Dr. Rowell, with Sanitary Inspector Frank Thompson, visited the Alameda Water Company’s Teservoir and secured for chemical examination samples of the water furnished to the town. “I find that there is some vegetable mat- be water, though not much,” said 3 to-day. *“‘There is nothing gerously harmful in the fluid, but the able matter is not desirable and steps should be taken to remedy this one defect in so far as is possible. shall recommend that the Alameda Water Company be compelled to provide a cement, bottom for 1ts reservoirs, or else to cover them over. Eitner one of these two courses will do away with the evil that has been complained of.’’ The reservoir which it is proposed to have provided with a cement bottom is the Jowest of the company’s three reservoirs, known as the Berryman reservoir. It has a capacity of about 25,000,000 gallons. A rough estimate of the cost of constructing the cement bottom places the expense at abont $10,000., * If the Board of Town Trustees should adopt the recommendation of Dr. Rowell and order the Alameda Water Company to cement the bottom of 1ts reservoir the company would be compelled under the law to give beed to the order, the improve- ment being one which it is in the power of the Trustees to order as a sanitary measure. The pearest time at which the cement- ing 1s likely to be done is next winter, when the reservoir can be emptiea with assurance of an immediate supply of water to refill it, Election of Lodge Officers.

OAKLAND, Car, June 19.—The sight of a jury, with the court and all of its offi- cials, visiting a Chinese lottery joint, is novel and attracted much attention when they filed into “Big Jim’'s” place on Eighth street, near Washington. Captain Wilson was in charge, assisted by Bailiff Mitchell. One of the witnesses for the prosecution | swore that he looked through a door and saw the detendant behind a partition, built specially to conceal him from view. This, said the defendant’s attorney, was an im-_ possibility, and in order that the jury might see the condition of things, Judge Wood decided that the jurors might see dition of the prem- spected the blind parti- t n the rear carefully.

It has been discovered that all the heirs | to the $55,000,000 paid by the French Gov- | ernment to the Government of the United | States nearly a century ago are not all | | dead. Three of them are at present resid- | ing in Cakland. They are the minor ch dren of Mayor Davie. The fund in the National treasury known as the French spoliation claims would | have been distributed under the provisions | of a bill passed by the last Congress, but it | was vetoed by the President. The money was paid by France and held in trust by | the United States for depredations to pri- vate persons and property during the ex- citing years at the end of the last century anda the commencement of the present one. | The grandfather of Mayor Davie’s chi dren resides at 155 Hawthorne street, § Francisco. He has for years been in | possession of all the data necessary to | establish the claim of his grandchildren, and he will at once take steps to see that the money is paid to those for whose bene- | fit it was intrusted to the Government of this country. | | A very interesting little story is told by | the grandfather, James Biddolph, in a let- ter received by Mayor Davie this mornin, n John L.

The question discussed was, “Why Are So Many ‘Women in Business Occupations?” The | answer given was, because monopolies and | corporations controlled the business arena ‘} of the Union, forcing men to accept wages that would not support the family. This compelled women to leave the home and earn a living to make existence poslible. Mrs. Morris sang “The Brook' charm- ingly before the discussion began.

OAKLAND,CaL., June 19.—The prosecu- tion in the *gold-brick” case, wherein Banker Stephen G. Little of Dixon was buncoed out of $7500, closed its case this morning. They succeeded in getiing the National Government bluebook as evi- derce to show that there was no such as- sayer in the Philadelphia Mint as Morton, self to be to the banker. ‘‘Big-foot” Gordon was the first witness for the defense, and he denied that he was | in Oakland the day the alleged ounko | game was worked, saying he was in New York at the time. He was substantiated by William de Bell, who testified he was employed in a livery stable in that city at the time and hired a rig to Gordon. S S i WICKHAM MAY ESCAPE. Fatal Error of a Careless Clerk in the District Attorney’s Office. OAKLAND, CaL, June 19.—Edward Wickham, now in the County Jail under a fifteen years’ sentence for grand larceny, may escape punishment altogether by the carelessness of the District Attorney’s office. Wickham was one of the railroad strik- ersin 1894, and being unable to get any- thing to do, he hired a horse and buggy and left for parts unknown. At Bakers- field he disposed of the rig for $20, but was subsequently caught and brought back to ihis city for trial. When the case came to trial his attorney made no defense, but claimed that the in- formation against defendant had not been filed with the County Cierk by the District Attorney within the time specified by law, and asked for an acquittal. The District Attorney admitted at the time that the the carelessness of a clerk, and the court the Supreme Court has reversed the lower court and orders the prosecution dis- missed, unless good cause is shown for failure to file the information.

SWEET GRIPES N JURE Yuma Heights Matures the Ber- ries Ahead of Any Section in the Country. Proud Achievement of a Man of Pluck and Enterprise in the Arizona Desert. Grapes, sweet, ripe and fully matured in the middle of June is the proud record of Yuma Heights, a section of irrigated desert about two miles from the town of Yuma. They were raised by H. W. Blaisdell of Yuma and a sample box of them shipped to W. G. Curtis, engineer of maintenance of ways of the Southern Pacific Company, who was showing them to his friends yes- terday as a gratifying tribute to the piuck and enterprise of Mr. Blaisdell. Accom- panying the fruit was the following letter: I forward by to-day's express asmall box of Thompson’s seedless grapes from the Yuma Heights ranch, such as we are shipping in all directions. Please show them to Mr. Kruttschnitt. I should also like to have Mr. Smurr see them. Next year we should be vrepared 10 ship 100 tons of such fruit before June 20. Mr. Curtis is deeply interested in the labors of his friend, who by his persist- ence and determination, hasdemonstrated that the variety of grapes mentioned, as well as other table grapes, can be placed on the market from Yuma fully a month ahead of those raised in any other part of the United States. For this reason alone Mr. Curtis thinks there is justification for the irrigation of that district. “Blaisdell’s enterprise,” said Mr, Curtis, “has done more for this section than any other man.

An Insurance Broker Said to Have Quit His Quarters on California Street. Such of the public as has kad dealings with C. J. McKenzieof the tirm of Enright & McKenzie at 322 California street are a little uneasy at the disappearance of Mec- Kenzie, who, it is rumored, has left the City on an extensive trip, probably in pur- suit of Dunbam, who is supposed to have gone to Mexico. Be this as it may the partner of Enright did not warm his office chair yesterday morning, nor did he, so far as could be ascertained, leave his card announcing when he would return. This firm of insurance brokers had an | First Cla office in the Lancashire Insurance Com- | pany’s quarters, of which Mann & Wilson are the Pacific Coast managers. But they were not attaches of the company, and consequently did no business for that con- cern other than the placing of such poli- cies as they saw fit 10 give to Mann & Wil- son for the company which they repre- | sented. If McKenzie’s accounts should be wrong the loss would fall on his partner Enright and the policy-holders who paid bim money for the purpose of placing their policies. McKenzie was at one time the trusted iriend of Hugh Craig of the New Zealand Insurance Company, but as 1s said by some, this friendship ceased some time ago, when Craig placed his friend in a position of trust and responsibility in Denver. The return of McKenzie to his office would set the tongue of street gossipat peace and restore him to the confidence of his friends. - TWENTY YEARS FOR ROBBERY.
