BERKELEY, CaL, Aug. 6—If the | stories of John Gazenago and Fred Mun- allmer, who, according to the | day, of West Berkeley, be true there is gold in the Contra Costa hills and plenty of it. The two men mentioned claim to have found a jicce of rock which is declared to | have assayed at $31265 go'd and $3245 silver to the ton. The men told of their discovery to-night and great excitement was arouse l among their acguaintances. Gazenago and Munday were out hunt. ing on Snnday on the Davis ranch, on the Contra Costa side of the Berkeley hills. At noon they sat down to ret ata point about eight miles north cf Berkeley. Here Gozenago picked up the piece of rock that has caused all thie excitement. Neither of the two men are experienced miners and their investigation of the ground did not lead to any definite re- sults, vestigated to-morrow and if there be any chunks of rock to be found like the boasted piece it is safe to say there will be lively times in the university town. There have been frequent reports in the past of discoveries of gold in the Berkeley | hills, but the finds have never proved im- portant. The two men in question absolutely de- clare t: at their story is to be relieu upon and, notwitnstanding that precedent 1s| against them and the reported gold dis- coveries in the Berkeley hills in the past have pruved fakes, they assert that toey have made a rich find. There is considerable excitement hers | to-night over the reports given out by | Munday and Gszenago and the organiza- tion of prospecting parties to search in the neighbornood of the purported find has already been talked of. It seems that the specimen which the two men picked up was lying Joose upon the ground. There was a ledge near by, but knowing nothing of | quariz they were unable to tell wnether { | | i | | i { i | bymns, it was gold-bearing or whether it was an outcropping of shale or sandstone. A strange part of the whole affair 1s that the discoverers of the loose specimen have not taken any one who is informed on mining matters to the location of the dis- covery, so that if there were any further indications of gold it might be made known to them. As mat ers now stand Munday aund Gazenago do mnot know whether they have a small Klondyke of their own or a stone quarry, They assert thatthe r specimen was as- at the Selby Smelling Works, ana that it panned out at the rate of $345 10 to the ton, as mentioned.

Brown Believed That | It Hindered Regular Church Work, Was a Rfunday-School Organization o No Way but in Its Name. OAKLAND OFFicE BAN Fraxcisco CALy,) 908 Broadway, Aug. 6. | The First Congregational funday-school orchestra is a thing of the past. The or- gan zation that visitel Santa Rosa, Fresno, Sacramento and San Francisco and made such a name for Oak!and in the Chrisiian Endeavor convention has been turned out of the Sunday-school. 1f it exists longer it will go by another name and independently of the church and Sunday-school. Director W. J. McCoy is in receipt of a communication from a joint session of the trusiees ana deacons, constituting the church committee. [t stated plainly that the orchestra would no longer be recog- nizsd by the cburch nor be given a part in the Sunaay-school. Under this con- dition it would not be proper for them to carry the name. No reason was given for their action. This move has teen contemrlated for some time, and is the re-ult of opposition by the church’s pastor, Rev. C. R. Brown. He came here in February and one of the first things be did was 1o oppose the play- ing in the orehestra of young people who were not Christians. This did not meet with the approval of many of the players and immediately there was trouble. Bev- eral ol the players leit and have not been back since. Their absence was commented upon by many of the Endeavarers during the convention in San Francisco, but ex- cuses were made for them. Some played for that occasion only. Mr. Brown inssied that the orchestra | had overshadowed the Sunday-school and detracted from the vocal work in singing He placed epecial siress upon tlie secularizing, by takingin experts and professionals, 1t wou d seem by this last move that he nad won hs point, for there will be no more orchestra in the Sunday-school. But the end is not yet. There will bs trouble over the music and instroments, which both sides will lay claim t0. Neither church nor Sunday-school paid the or- chesira’s expenses which were maae by concer!s given in the Aulitorium, The rent wsas, of course, donated, a3 was the the rooms for rehearsals, This gives the church, in some sense, & claim upon them. Theorchestra was governed by a board ori directors consisting of its president, vice-vresident, wecreiary, treas- urer, musical directorand librarian. W. A. Fine 1s the president of the or- cnestra, and has been one of its most stanch support-rs since its oreanization twelve years sgo. When playing a full complement the orchesira number thirty- five pieces. It wascustomary for them to participate in the regular school service-. Rev.

Attorney of Double Dealing, - ! TR | Messrs. Delmas and McEnerney Indulge in Some Sharp Repartee. The Cause of the Laughlin Family’s: Epmity Toward the Witness Brought to Light, fu iy L | 1 The cros:-examination of Mrs, Elizateth Haskins, one of the most important wit- nesses for the dcf:nse in the Fair-Craven trial—for she it was who saw Senator Fair write out the famous “pencil” will—was completed during yesterday's session of the cace, and the aged lady was returned | to Attorney Delmas for redire t examina- tion. This was also finished, so when | | Juage Slack reconvenes court Monday morning Mrs. Huskins will find herself agsin in tbe handsof the enemy, so to | speak, and being subjected to what is | calied rcc-oss-examination. ‘Whal were probably the most interest- ing festures of yesterday’s quizzing were the direct accusations of double-dealing made by the witness against Mr, Wheeler, one of the attorneys for the Fair hers. | These statements were aitogether in cor- roboration of the evidence already given | in court by Mrs. Craven. | 1t appears from what the ladies say that | Mr. Wheeler was so enthusiastic over the | “pencil” wiil and 80 certain of its genu- | | ineness that be was continually in confer- | | ence with them, and promised on his honor as a lawyer to be their friend and protector forevermore. Mrs. Haskins told all about this, and also how Mr, Wheeler deserted their cause immediately atter the | *irust”’ clause in the original! Fair will, | filed for probate by the executors, was de- clared invalid by Judge Slack. The latter decision, it will be remembered, rendered { that will as efficacious for the heirs as the pencil document and preciuded the | necessity ot having to pay Mrs. Craven | that $500,000 to surrender her claims, Mr. Wheeler piainly did not relish the | exposuris made by Mrs. Haskins and | winced under them, but he ne oically conssnted to her relating the incidents in full. | The cross-examination of Mrs, Haskins yesterday was practicilly gonfinet io an effort on ti.e part of Mr. W:.eeler to bring ouat the fact that when tbe will of Mrs. Haskins' husband was contested ir Judge | Coffey’s court two years ago, she was charged wi.h having foreed that instru- meni. But he did not evince the same zeal in permitting the fact to be shown that a jury declared that the will was genuine. That fact was lefc for Mr. Del- mas to bring out on redirect examination. The effort to put in evidence the several wills executed by the late James Haskins met with failure despite tne strenuous efforts of the attorneys for the heirs and estate to get tuem in. Mrs. Haskins frankiy admitted tbat her husband’s re- lations had charge | her with forgery. but | that these ciharges were found to be wholly untrue. She also admitted thatshe did not employ Eugene D.uprey todefend her m the coutest, althougn he was iu court looking after her interesis. The plain- tiffs' counsel were siming 10 show thai Mrs. Craven, outof friendship for Mrs. Haskins, retained Mr. Denprey, but Mrs. Haskins said sbe did not know who em- ployed him. Mr. Delmas took occasion to inform his opponents that inasmuch as Mrs. Has- | kins had admitted that she was accused | of forgery in the will contest he wouid not object to their going into that matter to | the fullest extent. “And make a virtue of necessit; marked Atiornéy McEnerney, wh 10 get in a little sbot ouce in a while. *‘Those who boss: of virtue may repent of vice before we are through,” replied | Mr. Delmas cuttingly. Mr. Wheeler's first question at the after- noon se:sion was designed to ascertain | from Mrs. Haskins whether or not Mrs, | | Craven ever told her not to mentivn the | fact that Senator Fair bad given her deeds, The witness replied with an emphatic Ko “Did Mrs. Craven ever fell you to only admit that Mr. Fair had executed the wills on the 2ith of September, 1894?7" asked Wueeler, *Never, sie.” The attorney once more asked Mrs, Haskins if she remembered Mrs. Laugh- lin and recerved an aflirmative reply, | Mis. Laughlin and her dausnters and | Mrs. Haskins all lived together at one time, “Did you tell Mrs. Laughlin in the year 1895 that Mrs. Craven had calied you a Lr and a torger?”’ asked Whneeler. “Never, sir.”’ *Did not Mrs. Laughlin ask you why you continueu to have anyihing to ao with such 2 woman, and did you not re- ply that you could not help i1, as Mra, Craven had you under her feet 2" “Never, sir. Nobody ever had me under their { et, sir—man or womun.” “Wuaen Mrs. Craven left your houve to move to Guerrero sireet did youand she not quarrel 2" “We did not. Mrs. Craven and I never d's greed. Asa maiter of fact, wnen she moved | helped her 10 pack up her things and assisted her in every way. We were as triendly as we had aiways been.” “Dil you ever say to any of the Laugh-' lins that if you weut to San Quentin Mrs, Craven would Lave to go, tou?"” “I never did."” : | “Did you ever tell Miss Annie Laughlin that you never saw Senator Fair and would not know him if he should waik | into the room?” “Wuny, never, sT. Mrs. Ha kins wi s compelled to listen to more of this. Sbe bad 1o deny that she had ever said she paid allof Mrs, Craven's bills and went around in rags herselt, and | that she had ever prociaimed in the pres- ence ot -the Laughlins that she was a } “torger.” Tue situation finally grew humorous to the aged lady despite lue seriou« nature of the innuenuoes carried by Wheeler's questions. She smiled and tuen laughed outright as siie gave her answers. *'1 can explain some of this,” she said once. *I told those people to move out of my touse, as 1 wished to convert it into flats, an«i all this is what they have con- cocted out of spite and revenge.” Wheeler objected to allowing this sally | to remain o. the, record, and at his re- quest it was stricken out, ‘I ere was one more question in the same line, and then the cross-examination was over, Thelady was aske {1f she had ever told the Laughlins that Mrs. Craven had induced her to do ail the *‘dirty wor! n conneciion with the Fair wili, and that the latier document was the cause of al her trouble. 'Nothiug of the sort,” she replied. It was vou yourself who kept ielling me that the Fair *trust’ w:il would be the cause of trouble for me. You are tiie one, sir.’” Mr. Wheeler prev i et upon tue courtto strike irom the record the reference to | Rotrusky, No.9; W.J. Robinsor bimself, and tuen the witne.s was turned over to Mr. Delmas for redirect examina- tion. He wentinto the matter of lne con- iestover James Haskins’ will and read the recirds of tnat proceeding in full tothe jury. Tney showed tuatthe will of James linsxim was not a forgery, as had been charged, but was not his last wiil and tes- tament. *You employed attorneys to assist you in that contest, did you not?” asked Mr. Delmas. “Yes, eir.”’ “Who were they?'" “George T. Wright, Reuben H. Lioyd and Cheres S Wneeler—the geatleman here in cour'. They said that inasmuch j as the estets was so small and there were '| so many helrs, they would belp me out by taking care of my case for nothing.” “‘What elss was said ?” “Mr. Wheeler said I was going to have ! trouble Lecause { was to be a witness in the Fair case in support of the pencil will. An effort was to be made, he said, to break me down in the contest over my husband’s wili, in order 1o cast discredit upon me when 1 testified in the Fair case. . Wheeler 10.d me not to worry, as he would stand by me and protect me. He put his hand upon Mr. Lioyd’s snoulder a:.d-aid: 'Here is Mr. Lioyd—a mighty awyer, he—who will ais0 hold up the vridge.” Bu. when I needed tnem to sup- port the bridze, Mr. Wheeler was in Aiaska and M. Lloyd was in Boston.” “The bridde uid not sireich to Boston nor to the Klondyke,” drolly suggested Mr. Delmas. *No, 1t d.d not,” rejoired the lady. “Mr. Delmas now took up a new line. He wanted to know someihing about the Laughlins. In answer to his questions Mrs. Haskins said the famiiy left her nouse in 1895. She was saying that she put the faniuy out because she desired to rebuild the house, but the attorneys for hs plainuffs objected vehemently, and the witness was finally stopped by the court. “When your deposition was taken, in Ju of last year, who cross-examined you?” asked Mr. Delmas. *I think Mr. P.erson or Mr. Mitchell— no, not Mr. Miicuell if that 1s he sitting there. 1. was Mr. P.erson.” ‘Do you remember that Mr. McEnerney was there, 100?" “Yes, he was there. I'llalivays remem- ber Mr. McEnerney.”” This reply caused quite a titter, and Mr, McEuerney blushed like a seminary graduate, Mr. Delmas’ questioning was now at an end, aud Mr. Wheeler was granted until Monday morning to prepare himself for the recross-examination. GOUNCIL FIRE QUENGHED Red Men New Great Chiefs Raised Up for the Cur- rent Term. San Francisco Seleoted as the Place for the Next Session of the Great Council. The Great Couneil of the Improved Red Men coucluded its lubors at 6 o’clock last evening and the session was one of the most barmonious ever held in the reserva- tion of California. ‘Che council was in ses- sion all day. The rejortof the commitiee on credentials showed that @uring the ses- sion there had been in attendance eleven great chiefs, that forty-itwo tribes were represented and tha. these had in the ag- gregate 166 representatives.
