Cornwall, on Durant street, and 8, T. Alexander, on Sixteenth street. The silverware taken from Corn- wall’s and the jewelry taken from Alexan- der’s were found in Taylor's room.

ALAMEDA, OAL., Feb. 19.—The library trustees have decided to probibit the cir- culation of books in families afflicted with contazious diseases owing to the fact that all medical authorities admit books are the most efficacious means of spreading disease germs. With this in view the librarian sent out a number of postal cards this week with the foilowing printed message upon them ALAMEDA FREE LIBRARY. No books will be issued to_your family unti) the Health Officer has removed quarantine. Please noilfy the members of your family who are drawing books. No fines imposed until after fumigation. Respectiuily yours, J. W. HARBOURNE, Librarian. This brought forth a throng of protest- ants, who besieged the library to know why they were tabooed. D:.

Irealize Iam in a hole, and have made up my mind not to drag in anybody else.” Such was the story, in brief, told by a | burglar who was arrested in San Francisco last night and brought to Oakland this afternoon. He is not known to the police of either city, and they are inclined to be- lieve his story of not having stolen $1 out- side of Oakland. For several days Chief Lloyd hashad a special detail on the trail of Evans. The detectives succeeded in finding a good clew and had also recovered a good deal of the stolen booty, and actingon the | knowledge they gained by finding out | where Evans stole his plander, they were | enabled to run him down. Last night he | was selling some stuff across the bay, | where be had sold some on er occa- sions, and his arrest followed. During the past two months there have been several burglaries in Oakland. They were all of the same nature and were per- formed at about the same hour in the morning in the same class of houses. Chief Liovd and Detective Holland went to San Francisco to bring the prisoner, and on the way he confessed all his crimes since he came to Oakland. At the residence of Varney Gaskill he obtained some clothing, and at the police station this afternoon the fashionably cut over- coat of the commander of the Republican Alliance was put on as evidence, to ex- plain to Chief Lloyd that the reason he hed not worn it was because it was big enough to go round about three people of the size of the burglar. Evans a!so entered the residence of Mrs. Rebecca Knox, but was disturbed by a young lady who resides there while he was ransacking her room. He fled with a gold watch and $10 In coin. At the house of M. L. Levy Le stole some clothing and at the house of Charles Williams, 563 Ho- bart street, there was a per<onal encoun- ter. Mr. Williams got up to see what caused the noise in the dining-room, ran sgainst the burglar and received a blow in the eye, after which the burgiar escaped. A valuable mandolin, which was recov- ered to-day, was taken from the house of Paul Lohse. Some valuable silverware was taken from E. L. Hall’s place in East Oakland. Mrs. Garcla, at Thirteenth and Brush, was robbed of $76 and a watch; the latter has been found. M. Schleuter suffered the loss of a watch and money from his house, and, with the addition of entering the house of P. E, Bowles, on Boulevard terrace, this seems to be the sum of Evans’ crimes. He admitted to the officers this after- noon that last Friday night he was ar- rested by Policeman Morrison at Sixth street and Broadway and was sentenced to three days in jail for drunkenn He told the Chief that his room was at Sec- ond street and Broadway, and a search this afternoon produced Varney Gaskill’s overcoat. the case of Mrs. Lohse's mando- 1in and P.

Forderer, Tisdale and Reynolas OPPORTUNITY FOR A GOOD DEED A Massive Foundation at Bray Avenue Awaits the Superstructure. Like All Other Institutions Re- quiring Money, It Felt the Hard Times. The Accommodation Is Needed for the Benefit of Worthy Aged Women. OAKLAND OFFICE SAN Francisco CAvr, 908 Broadway, Feb. 10. Massive foundations which have costa | moderate fortune, inclosing about two acres, have been laid on Bray avenue, Fruitvale, and are now waiting for the elaborate building planned by Sister Su- perior Russell of the Home of Notre Dame of San Francisco. The foundations were finished about a year ago, and since thdt time nothing has | been done because of the insufficiency of | the fund which is being raised for the pur- | pose ot establishing that institution. Two years ago Sister Superior Russell, with the approvalof Archbishop Riordan, determined to make a great effort to pro- | vide better and ample accommodations | for the old lsdies who need to be cared for in the evening of life. Her plan em- braces a magnificent three-story brick structure to be located on Bray avenue. All the details have been carefully planned and the building will contain comfortable apartments for many old Iadies, as well as a chapel, and it is the | intention when completed to have serv- | ices celebrated in the building instead of it being necessalry for the inmates to attend the church, whith is about six blocks distant. Sister Russell stated at that time that there was sufficient money in band to | build the foundation, which is said to | have cost over $25,000, and she hoped that | by that time enough additional subscrip- | tions and bequests would have been re- | ceived to enable the work to be carried on. The period of depression, which has reached its height since the foundation was built, affected very materially those who can generally bs ‘depended upon to donate liberally for charitable purposes, and this accounts for the fact that the work came to a sudden standstill. There is now in hand asmall portion of the necessary fund for completing the build- | ing, bnt it is not considered advisable to %o shead until a much larger portion is promised. | One of the most earnest advocates of the home said to-day that if the real value of such a home were to be known to the eople at large the necessary amount to nsure its construction would soon be forthcoming. “‘Here is an excellent opportunity,” she said, “for some wealthy ind viduals to make a handsome bequest where it would | do the greatest amount of good. The home in San Francisco is always fuil, and | its location cannot begin to compare with | this beautiful district at Fruitvale. I be- | lieve when the fact becomes known that | the foundation is waiting for the super- struciure that some material aid will speedily be rendered.” DUPED BY THER FRENDS A Prize-Fight Eetween Two Berkeleyans That Wasn’t a Fight | | J. C. Berry and W. Ward Put Upa| Heavy “Josh” on a Party of Their Sportinz Frienis. BERKELEY, CaL., Feb. 10.—All Berke- ley is laugning at & party of local sports 1ting the story T police could be on hand to stop the flow ot blood. The crowd, with the prospective oppo- nents in the ring, leit Berkeley at 7 o’clock | last night. They arrived in San Fran- cisco at 8 and started for the secluded | rendezvous, Berry aud Ward having driven ahead in a hack. The pugilists and tbeir seconds turned back and took the 8:15 boat to Oakland, and for two long hours the leading lights of sporting affairs in the university town waited for the fightiers. Then {\'m‘d's bundle of clothes for the ring was opened. In it were old vegetables and rags, and the disgusted would-be witnesses of a truly fignt realized that they were victims of a hoax. A means of turnine the tables by get- published_ as genuine quickly suggested itself, and the idea was carried out. New Looal Station. BERKELEY, CAL., Feb. 10.—It is prob- able that the local-train service will be ex- tended to Gilman street, West Berkeley, which is six blocks from the present terminus. The Southern Pacific Com- pany has promised to make the extension if provided with land for a depot.
