For Pour Months a Wife and Family of Little On+s Have Looked in Vain for Tidings. CaL., Jan. 21.—Since he tools to go to lunch at noon ur months past not a trace of Thomas P. Roark of West Berkeley has t found. His wife, struggling in pov- to support six children, the eldest 9, has watched and waited, and made ries, and haunted the offices of the but all without result, and now the riunate woman thinks that she isa ) and that her husband was mur- de¥ed and his body put out of the way somewhere along the lonely stretch of the West Berkeley beach. Reark was employed as a carpenter by one Dugan, who keeps a saloon on Rose street. T he reletions of themissing man and the saloon-keeper were not merely those of employer and employe, however, as the carpenter is said to have been a good customer at Dugan’s bar. Or late he had drunk and gambled a good. deal. On the morning of September 23 he said g00d-by to his wife at the breakfast table and went to h1s work as usual. The night before. he had been making plans for future work and he nad hired an assistant to work for him on the 24th. “I had lunch ready for him,” said Mrs. an, “but he did not come. Supper time came, and still he was away, and 1 lay awake all night, expecting every mo- ment to hear him come in. “I thought he might come home at C mas, but it is passed and so is New Year's, and [ know thatif he was alive be would not stay away from me ana the children. He was very much attached 1o them, and he would know if he were alive that there is no money forme to keep them witn, “‘He was not the kind of a man to kill himself, and if he is dead he did not die . b{ his own hand. Men who drink and play cards get in trouble and are some- times put out of the way, and because I have no money the police take no interest in looking for him." toark was very well known in Berkeley, bving resided on Ninth street, near Uni- w'tity avenue, for eighteen years. His wik: is now supporting berself and six children by selling milk. Her home is mortgaged for $1000, and ere long may be taken from her. Roark was a master mechanic, and as far 88 is known had no reason for sunicide or for leaving his home. Freshman Baseball.

BERKELEY, Cav., Jan. 2L — Philip Webber, an employe of the West Berkeley Brewery, is laid up with a broken ankle as the result of a collision of his wagon with a switch engine at the Oakland Point about 9 o’clock last night.

Now the Republicans Admit That He Is a Master-Wielder of the Gavel OAELAND OFFICE SAN FR } 908 Broadwa, Politicians to-aay are discussing the chances of election of the ticket nominated iast night by the Republicans, and already there is talk of opposition candidates. One of the incidents of the convention was the expeditious manner in which Judge Talcott wielded the gavel. He has only been in this city a short time, and with the exception of a speech on last Fourth of July, the Judge is almost a stranger to public life. A year ago he was an ardent Democrat, but the planks in the Chicago platform were more than he | | TRAMP JENNINGS WAS T00 NERYY Made His Companion Obey Him With an Empty Revolver. Exhibited Stolen Treasures Hidden in a Barn Near Sunol. Finally Became So Overbearing Tha He Was Led Into the Hands of the Sheriff OARLAND OrricE SAx FRANCISCO Cu.x.,} 908 Broadway, Jan. 21 John Jennings is one of the smoothest individuals that ever tramped the roads of Alameda County or pillaged a lady’s jewel case at a ranchhouse. Jennings turned up at Pleasanton four days ago under peculiar circumstances. Some laborers who were repairing the rail- road track observed his coming outof a little hut which they were accustomed to use for a cookhouse, He had gone inside and helped himself liberally to whatever fooa he could find and politely told the men what he had done, and expressed a hope that he had not subjected them to any inconvenience. : A little later he took into his confidence Herman Jarmen and told him that he could put him in the way of earning a far better living than by working. He per- suaded Jarmen to accompany him, and when near Sunol Jennings went into a little hut and showed Jarmen several pleces of jewelry, which he plainly stated he had stolen. He then took a revolver, pointed it at Jarmen and hinted what his fate would be should he divulge his plans. After putting the jewelry in his pocket the two men took to the road again and walked till they were hungry. Toward evening they were near a ranch- house, and Jennings told Jarmen to wait by the roadside till he came back. In baif an hour he returned with a fat chicken, which was still alive. Hetold Jarmen to kill it and Jarmen, who is very tender- hearted, refused to do so. Jennings again produced his revolver, and a few seconds later Jarmen had killed the chicken. After a nastily cooked meal they retired for the night to an empty barn. Jarmen was told to keep watch at the door while Jennings slept, but before lying down the thief put his revolver by his side and JUDGE H. D. TALCOTT, a Converted Democrat, Who Gave 7 \ N OId Republicans Pointers About Running a Convention. could stand. and for some time he has been & sincere advocate of Republican principles. Already there is talk of getting together the Municipal League and making uga ticket by indorsing candidates on other tickets or encouraging them to run inde- pendently by promising the league's in- dorsement. % g As the leading spirit of the Municipal League took an active part in last night's convention, it is not easy to see how. without some treacherous practices, the remnant of the leagne can show sufficient strength to make their indorsement worth having. Dr. Pardee and Giles H. Gray have been the pillars of strength on which the leagua depended. Both these men were in evi- dence last night, and indeed Dr. Pardee has been the controlling spirit in all the preliminary work that led up to the con- vention. There is more than a probability that John R. Glascock may be induced to run by the Democrats, and if such should be the case he will probably receive the sup- port of a section of the league. Although the league has always been considered a Republican body, and indeed has been one, it has always called itself non- partisan, and, consequently, cannot be accused of inconsistency by supporting a Democrat for office even after the nomina- tion of a popular Republican such as W. R. Thomas. It is now certain that there will be an independent citizens’ ticket, and there can be no doubt that such a movement would brm%toxethu under the leadership of John L. Davie nearly all the disaffected elements in politics. J. K. Peirsol, the present City Attorney, was nominated to succeed himself last nightby the Popu- lists, and if he retains anything like the strength he showed two years ago he will prove a formidable rival to W. A, Dow, who was nominated by the Repubiicans, Up to the day before the Republican convention met there was a strong move- ment to throw down City Engineer Wil son and take up Ross Morzan. The name of Morgan, however, was not submitted to the convention, and it is believed now that it was withdrawn for the purpose of making him a strong candidate on an in- dependent ticket. The “Lord” Indlocted. OAKLAND, CaL., Jan. 21.—Lord Athol, alias Henry Aubridge, was indicted by the Grand Jury to-day for embezzlement. He is charged with stealing a horse and didstes for places on the freshman base- s ball team at tue State University will have | buggy from Pumyea's stables and he is in the County Jail, hinted to Jarmen what the penalty would be if any harm happened to him. By this time Jarmen was thoroughly frightened and concluded that the sooner he parted company with Jennings the safer he would feel. He waited until Jen- nings was asleep and started out to find Constable Lyster. Marshal Ramage of Haywards was also notified, and a few hours later Jennings was caught, and when his revolver was taken from him there was not a single cartridgein in it, nor nad he one about his person. Jennings took his arrest very quietly, admitted stealing the jewelry and told the officers where he got it, and a Jittle later gave them the information that he was released from San Quentin last Thursday, where he had just completed a term for purglary. He is now in the County Jail with another charge of burglary hanging over him. A BID ALTERED. The Board of Works Will Investigate the Affair. OAKLAND, CaL., Jan. 21.—It has been discovered that there has been a change in a bid for sewering East Twelfth street. The bid originally read *'8 9,10 cents,” not specifying that amount was for square feet, square yards, or for the whole job. The assessments were made out for the sum mentioned for the gutters. It has just now been discovered that by the use of ditto marks the bid now reads “89.10 cents per square foot.”” Assistant Ellery and Miss Babcock, both of the Btreet Department, are positive that the original bid was without ditto marks. There is a difference of several hundred dollars in the original bid and the way in which it now appears. —————————— . The Congregational Orchestra. OAKLAND, Can, Jan. 21.—The Con- gregational orchestra will give its first concert of the season under its new con- ductor, William J. McCoy, this evening in the Congnilllbnll church, corner of Twelfth and Clay_screets. They will be assisted by New York’s great contralto, Mrs. Katherine Fleming-Hinrichs, who was recently united in marriage to Gustav Hinrichs, the leader of grand opera and of the Symphony orchestra of S8an Fran- cisco, Mrs. Fleming-Hinrichs was for two years prima donna for the great orchestra under Theodore Thomas, and she has held similar positions under all the great leaders of the East. On this ) occasion she will be accompanied by her | morning husband, Gustay Hinrichs. Francis 0O’Connell, the well-known ’cellist, will be heard in two numbers on that sweet in- strument. ——————— THE HUSBAND TESTIFIES. He Defends Himself in the Watson Di- vorce Case. OAKLAND, Oax, Jan. 2L.—W, C. Wat- son, who was on the witness-stand to-day in support of his side of the divorce case now pending, denied that he was jealous of his wife. He thought he had caught her flirting several' times and said he did not approve of her long interviews with tradespeople. He was on the stand all morning and denied that he ever accused nis wife of unfaithinlness or ever struck her. During his testimony Dr. O’Doun- nell's name was mentioned and much of the evidence was of a very repulsive nature. At one time Watson consulted the Rev. Mr. Strong about his daughtsr and the father-in-law said he did not know any- thing that would justify in taking any steps in the matter. He referred toa quarrel which they had when he discov- ered some tags for goods which had been sent to the co-respondent Reed. He de- nied exhibiting & revolver on any oc- casion and stated that his wife was too fond of wine. This afternoon the defense was com- pleted and if the prosecution takes ad- vantage of the privileze of introducing testimony in rebuttal the case may lasta few days longer. The Watsons are a very obscure Ala- meda family and were never heard of in social or active life until Mr. Watson became suspicious of his wife's attention to others and brought suit for divorce. The names of many respectable peoplc have been injected into the case without sense or reason in an attempt to make the paltry action appear sensational, SINGING FLOWER GARDEN Entertainment to Be Given in the First Congregational Church.

Gay, whose matrimonizl affairs have caus his inecarceration in the City Prison, was arraigned before Justice Morris this morn- ing. His looks belied his name. Wife No. 4, whose former name is given in the marriage license as Miss Mary Gafford, attended him aud paid a long visit to the jail. She chats gayly and seems to think there is fun in such work. Itis thought that he has “thrown up the sponge,” in sporting parlance, and this was shown in court, when there was some wrangling as to the date of the examination. +I wish you would set it as soon aa you can,” said he. I think, as I get a long term anyhow, I might as well begin on it as soon as I cam” Justice Morris set the hearing for 2 o'clock next Tuesday after- | noon. Surprised His Friends, ALAMEDA, CAL, Jan. 21.—William B. | Hodges, Deputy County Tax Collector, of 1313 Park avenue, arrived home this from Montere; with_ Mrs, Hodges, who was Miss Mamie Pedlar. The affair was kept so quiet that no one seemed to know anything of it. Last July Mr. Hodges visitea Monterey, where he met Miss Pealar, who held a responsi- ble position in the schools there. He re- turned again about two weeks ago and married her, spending his honeymoon there. Bimetallic Club Officers.

Levy, messenger. The reports to be presented during the session will show that the order is in a healthy condition in the entire jurisdic- tion, and that it has held its own asto membership. One of the most important matters to come up during the session will be the consideration of tie existing endowment system by which the beneficiary of each member receives $2000, that is if the mem- ber is married. With unmarried members it is optional whether they take out a cer- tificate of endowment. The present plan does not meet with the views of the majority of the member- ship and some time ago & committee on endowment was appointed to prepare a plan that would meet the views of these members, but the report they presented did not receive the support of the lodges it was expected it would. A number of the local lodges appointed a conference committee that prepared a plan which, it is likely, will be adopted with possibly one or {wo modifications In addition to these two there will be presented for considera- tion a plan submitted by Albert Eikus and one that is known in fraternal circles as the Morse equalization plan, Another matter that will come up for discussion wijl be a proposition to abolish ‘the religious free school which has been stained by the lodges of the districtat an annual cost of $1750. This bas been open not only to the children of members, but to the children of any Hebrew, though not a member of the order. Of late many of the lodges have come to the conelusion that this is a ‘Frotly heavy tax on the membership and for thaf reason a move- ment will be made to have the school abolished. Then there will be the election of officers ensuing year. It is probable that Btein of Hope Lodge, first grand -president, will succeed Senator Ed- L. Wolle, the incumbent. Edward Bare will probably be chosen first vice- president, and Samuel Barnch it is ex- ected will be the second vice-president. en Harris will be elected to continue as grand treasurer, and Simon Hochstadter, Max Marcuse and Louis Cohn will be, it is Auction Sales MILLINERY AND HAIR GOODS.

The grand secretary, Jacob Levison, ex- pects to leave to-day for Stockton to pre- pare for the session, but he mav be delayed until to-morrow morning. A large num- ber of the representatives from the local and lodges in the immediate vicinity have made arrangements to go to the meeting- place by boat. Julins Bien of New York, the head of the order for more than twenty-eight years, celebrated his seventieth anni- versary on the 27th of last September, and he is vet hale and hearty. Mr. Bien is in the art line. He is president of the Lith- ographers’ Association of the United States—a position which he has held since its existence. From his establishment have gone forth illustrations which con- stitute a permanent partin the works of science, such as portions of the illustra- tions which made the work of Audubon, the American ornithologist, famous; the illustrations to the great surgical work issued by the Government as an important part of the great history of the Civil War; maps numbered by thousands published by the Department of the Coast Survey; the plates which made the publications of the Geological Department so precious, and other numecous books which will assure Mr. Bien a permanent place in the annals of the scientific and art worid. He is at pres:nt a member of the Geographi- cal Society of Washington, of the Ameri- can Geographical Society of New York, of the American Association for the Ad- vancement of Science, ot the Academy of Sciences, of the American Btatistical Asso- ciation, Boston, and of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, Philadelphia, He joined the order in 1850 and has been a member of Beersheba Lodge instituted the following year and of which he became a charter member. Since his connection’ with the orderit has spread from a small membership in New York City to many BStates, and of late years branches have been established in Vienna, Berlin, Roumania and Austria, and during its existence the order has paid out large sums as benefits and done much to elevate the standard of Judaism.
