Mrs. Peters has set Livermore against Pleasanton and as these two towns are always ready | { to say that each is best there is likely | to be some warm correspondence over | the matter. | The last time that Pleasanton so- ciety was shocked was when an at- tempt was made to sing “Isabel” at a\ Christian Endeavor social, but failed. Now Mrs. town once more, and has declared that | the people of Plec:anton are “anything but refined and human.” | Mrs. Lillian B. Peters, if her claims | are correct, is a great artist. She says | that Henry Abbey was once her Lon- | don manager, and that she has served | as court pianist at the courts of Rus- | ia and Austria. She has also organ- | ized Chopin clubs in different cities in the country and is an enthusiast. A few hs ago Lillian B. Peters de- scended with all her attainments upon Pleasanton. She called society together and told it that it would be the proper thing to have Saturday music recitals. New York and Berlin have themd ): santon should also have them. An attempt was made to make FPleasanton musical, and it failed—failed, so that to call the town *“jay” is to compliment it, according to Lilllan B. Peters. Now Mrs. Peters believes that there is some hope for Livermore, musically. She has written to a social leader in Livermore, asking if it would be a good thing to introduce Saturday musicales a la Albert Hall to the “best people” of the town that adjoins Cresta Blanca. Mrs. Pe ends her letter with the re- | with which the story opens. id that Livermore will tolerate | st one series of musicales, if only | to prove that it is musically and so- cially on a higher plane than Pleasan- ton Mrs. Peters has left Pleasanton. k3 =% nuRRLN A After thirty-eight years of activ Dunn, Ryfkogel and M tient unfitted to withstand sicknes: up to be chief freight clerk of the road, cf cl Z 1ll health. lejo. has held for nearly twenty years. joined the Masonic order, but no other Frightened Away a Burglar.

City Attorney Dow Thinks the Grand Jury Should Intervene. Has a Story That He Would Like Tell the Inguisitors. to County’s Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Feb. 14. The Grand Jury now in session has, it is stated, taken up the rumors of | bribery in connection with the recent | appointment of the new men on the | police force, and it considers it is ow- | ing to the city that the matter be | probed to the bottom. Whether there | be bribery or not, there are all manner | of discreditable stories flying around involving ecity officials, and if those who are assiduously circulating these stories are doing it mischievously, they should be silenced and punished. The proposition was made to-day by a city official and a member of the Board of Works that it would be a good thing to subpena all the City Hall officials before the Grand Jury and get at the bottom of the whole business that will not down. It is reported on excellent authority | that one man who is at present on the police force was approached and told that -if he would put up a certain amount of meney he would be certain of being appointed.

The Boy Burglar. ALAMEDA, Feb. 14.—Edward Hill, the 16-year-old burglar, was taken before Justice Morris to-day, where by consent of the District Attorney the case was postponed for six months, with the under- standing that at that time a date would be set for the examination. No reason was given for this remarkable procedure, nor is there any apparent reason why the young man should not have his case treated in the same - manner as other burglars. The arresting officer who caught him in the act of committing the burglary is puzzled to account for the strange proceeding. A Strange Case. ALAMEDA, Feb. 14.—Mrs. A. D. Willis of 2201 San Antonio avenue went to call on a neighbor to-day, and when she re- turned she was amazed to find a strange man sitting in her kitchen, where he was making himself very much at home. She asked him who he was and what he wanted, and he answered that he guessed he must have made a mistake. There- upon an officer was summoned and he was taken to the police station. He could give no coherent account of himself, but was very quiet and docile. Soon after his father appeared on the scene and ex- lained matters. The young man's name s Louis Jellu, and his father is an Oak- land baker. He has become mentally un- sound from overstudy and_is not re- ponsible for his actions. He is harm- however, and was allowed to de- part in company with his father. COMPANY M VICTORIOTS. Defeats Company I in a Hard Strng- gle on the Gridiron. Nearly 500 people journeved to the Pre- sidio athletic grounds yesterday to wit- ness the final game of the season between League of the Cross teams. The Lilac M's, known as Company M of the League, and the Stars and Stripes, representing Company I, lined up on the | gridiron. and, after an exciting struggle, Company M won. A great deal of enthusiasm was shown by the crowd, the brilliant runs and clever plays being repeatedly cheered. Sheble and Greste of the Lilac M's were the heroes of the day. made_two out of the four touchdowns scored by his team, one by an eighty-yard run and another twenty-vard Greste's seventy-yard run through a scat- tered feld to a touchdown was the sen- sation of the day. Company I put up-a gallant struggle, but to their lack of training and a poor knowledge of signals they owe their defeat. Charles Johnson acted as referee and Lionel Swift as linesman. 16 to 0. —_————— Valenzuela Released From Custody.
