THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, APRIL 28, 1898 11 ALAMEDA COUNTY NEWS. NOW CALL IT A TUGE JOKE Dr. Woolsey Never Had Any Idea of Law- suits. And Dr. Dunn Was Also Working Off a Little Pleasantry. The Seriousness With Which They Ran Up Attorneys’ Fees Was Well Feigned. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 808 Broadway, April 27. Drs. Woolsey and Dunn have buried the hatchet. For over three weeks each has been digging a hole large enough to con- tain his enemy:. But now the holes are filled in and the little hatchet that threat- ened such dire things is far enough below the ground to be out of sight. When these two friends, who have been partners and companions for years, rushed into lawyers’ offices and threat- ened all Kinds of suits because of difference in their calculations regarding the lease of the property where they do business it was freely predicted that they would never come to blows. Everybody told them that they were pointing blank cartridzes at each other. Dr. Woolsey swore nis gun was loaded and would go off, and Health Officer Dunn made the same statement.

Senar Sarbreno, the Pianist for Ysaue, t0 Whom Providence Audience Refused to Listen. Some idea can be had of how intense the war feeling has become in the Eastern cities by the manner in which Senor Sarbreno, the pianist for Ysaye, who is to open at the Baldwin on May 9, in a tragic pantomime with Pilar Morin, was treated by an audience at Providence, R.

After losing $10,000 in trying to establish a garbage crematory in this city the pro- | moters now find themselves incapable of | operating under the franchise granting them exclusive rights, and practically they have no redress. The decision of Judge Allen has de- granting the franchise, and the sifuation is interesting, showing, as it does, that and the franchise company had saved and is saving $600 per month to the city. Since last August the crematory has been shut down, although it has not thereby for- feited its franchise under the terms of the ordinance. The ordinance gives the company the exclusive right to gather garbage within the city of Oakland and in another section it authorizes house- holders or their proper agents to remove the garbage fram their own premises. After the scavengers were arrested they at once secured contracts from their cus- tomers and under this clause the court held that the scavengers were justified in collecting garbage. When the practice of dumplng of garbage within the city limits was | stopped by the Board of Health about | two years ago, it was made compul- | sory that all the garbage be either de- | stroyed or carried five miles. beyond the | city limits. For a long time the city of Oakland provided railroad transportation at a cost of 3600 per month to carry the garbage which was delivered to them by the scavengers into Contra Costa Coun- J' ty, where it was dumped. When the cre-{| matory people came along this oxpense', to the city was stopped, and the individ- | ual scavengers who refused to patronize the crematory chartered cars on their | own account and did and are still doing | that which cost the city such a large | sum. The situation now is rather complicated though economical, so far as the city concerned. The crematory is fdle, = its property and franchise attached by the creditors, the scavengers are collecting garbage as in the past and are conveyving it seven miles outside the city limits, and the ordinance granting the franchise is pr'la_kc‘llcally void. Sl e inventor of the crematory, Loui: Shaffer, and the leading preml(?;er, RQ‘E corder Spear, entered into the project in good faith, and have rendered the city a | material benefit, but at the same time | have been heavy personal losers. It would | seem now that unless a new ordinance is | passed their investment cannot be made | profitable, and it is a doubtful question if | the old ordinance can be amended so as | to protect the exclusiveness of the priv- ilege without trespassing on the validity of the privilege itself. ———— TREAT FOR ART LOVERS.

University Students 70bject to Being Treated “as Kindergarten Pupils.” BERKELEY, April 27.—Several scores of students in physies at the university are indignant at the treatment accorded ay by one of their instructors, v, an assistant in the depart- ment of physics. The students went to the physics lecture room to take the ex- amination which had been prepared for them by Professor Lewis, who gives the course. Professor Lewls is away visiting schools and had left Assistant’ Gray to give the examination. When Gray met the class this morning he announced that the examination would not be given then until there was abso- lute silence in the room. Absolute silence did not prevail for a quarter of an hour, at the end of which time nearly all of the class indignantly left the room. They went to A tant Professor Raymond, who is acting head of the department in the absence of Professor Slate, and angrily protested against Gray's treat- ment of them ‘‘as Kindergarten puplls.”” Professor Raymond promised to give them their examination next Friday morning. The students are very much incensed at Gray’s action, which they characterize_as ‘a capriclous attempt to exercise authority and an insult to them ag university students. MANY STREWED ACACIA EEAVES Largely Attended Funeral of the Late Frederick Delger. Rev. Dr. McLean Speaks of the Value of Progressive Men to a Community. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, April 27. ‘I am able in my own mental rec- ord to accord Mr. Delger a good place among the benefactors of our city, There are different kinds of benefactors and benefactions. One kind of benefactor is to be found in the man possessed of great material wealth in a community, and of that kind was Mr. Delger, who lived a life of influence among us here in Oakland. “It is a good thing to be able to contribute among the sorrowing, the helpless and the orphan, but is it not a good thing to make it possible that others shall not enter the ranks of the suf- fering? To relieve the suffering is a great and beneficent thing, but to prevent suffering is even a greater thing, to my mind. “Among this kind of benefactors I would rate Mr. Delger. For more than thirty-seven years has Mr. Delger been here and been such a contributor to this fair city of Oak- ~land. ol “Thirty-seven years in Oakland. That covers mostly all of its his- tory. It covers the lifetime of a generation. During those years the entire population of the place has changed more than twice. -In 1861, when Mr. Delger first came bere, there were only 1500 inhabi- tants in Oakland and Berkeley, and the center of business was Fourth street and Broadway. He has seen the school system rise from obscur- ity to be one of the best in the United States; has seen the develop- ment of banks, of institutions of charity and churches and all things that make a fair city. “And now it is said of him that he was the largest individual owner of improved real estate. That man man in righteous ways accumulates largely of material wealth’ is of more importance in the beginning of a small city than almost any other factor. He is the man who puts up substantial improvements, and their taxation contributes di- rectly to every good thing in that city. “] say it is money just as well spent as money contributed to benevolence. Such a thing makes possible the safety of the city, for the safety of person and property comes through taxation. The ex- ample of such a man in the com- munity is worth much, and to Mr. Deiger the citizens of Oakland owe a debt of gratitude. Such were the words of the venerable | J. K. McLean, D.D., as he stood at the head of the bier of the late Frederick | Deiger in the First Congregational Church | this afternoon. Around the casket, in| full regalia, was Live Oak Lodge, of | which the deceased was a member, and a | large number of visiting brethren from all the lodges around the bay. The church was filled with prominent citizens and friends who had been acquainted with the | deceased for years. Members of the| household bore the casket to the hearse, | and the honorary pall-bearers were: Wil- liam R. Davis, W. Frank Pierce, Wallace Everson, J. Everding, F. K. Shattuck, H. C. Taft, C. H. Smith, H. A. Powell, Thomas Crelin, E. C. Sessions, Victor H. Metcalf and William Rutherford. Many ladies of the Fabiola Association attended as a delegation from the insti- tution toward which the deceased had been so generous. At the Delger vault in Mountain View Cemetery Live Oak Lodge conducted the ceremonies. The lodge was in charge of Master George H. Smith, Senior Warden J. C. Dunne, Junior Warden T. F. Mock, Deacons John A. Britton and G. T. Burt- chaell, Stewards J. Corrigan_and Ed Pierce, Marshal D. W, Standeford and Tyler D. H. Mathi; —————— CHRISTIAN CEURCH TROUBLE. ALAMEDA, April 27.—The friends of Rev. Mr. Wickham, the pastor of the Christian Church in this city, which has been split by dissension, are very averse to any publicity with regard to the mat- ter and the reverend gentleman himself says that it is one of those things which are best settled without the newspapers. N\ It is now stated that the entire trouble is over the gnyment of the ml‘?ister’s sal- ary. The church is a poor and struggling organization, without any wealthy mem- bers, as stated. It is so poor that it has not vet been able to have its bullding painted, though completed more than a year ago. There are only about sixty members of the church all told, and of these about forty have decided, so it is said, to abide | by Rev. Mr. Wickham, and wiil worship | in Holtz's Hall, at the West End. The re- | mainder will _continue to " occupy the church, and Rev. Dr. 8. M. Jefferson of Berkeley will supply the pulpit until some d_efl({me and permanent arrangement is made. s There is a debt of about $1%0 on the church, and how to meet this will tax the efforts 'of the remainder of the congrega- fion most severely. Mr. Wickham prom- ises at the proper time and before the proper church tribunal to make such a showing as shall confound his opponents and put them to shame. - CCCOCCOCOCCOOCCOOCCCOCOCTOCCOCCCOCUTOCCOTOOCCOCTO0CCOCCOCO00COoCeoee | aire mine-owner; Howard M.

In fact, the shipping prospects are so poor that the chances are that a couple of the pilot boats will be laid up for a season or until the times improve. The following notice to mariners has been issued by the United States branch hydrographic office: Captain Isaiah Bray oy b Tafssionary steamer Morning Star, now at Ionolulu, reports to this office that on August 4, 1897, in latitude north 7 degrees 22 minutes, longitude west 173 degrees 13 minutes, he discovered a coral rock of the most dangerous character. Several points projected from 5 to 10 feet out of water, with green water surround- ing it for perhaps an eighth of an acre. %I!e British bark Powys Castle was to have sailed for London with a cargo of lumber last Tuesday, but she did not sail until last night. The captain was afraid of the Spaniards and got a certificate to the effect that his cargo was owned by British shippers. This, however, was valueless without the countersignature of the British Consul, so the sailing of the bark had to be postponed to get it. The whaling bark Alice Knowles. which left here last November for the Okhotsk Sea, has been spoken in latitude 42.15 north, longitude 147.06 east, with twenty barrels of sperm ofl. On the 4th ist., when three days out from Yokohama, the steamer Allsa Craig ran across her and gave Captain Ogden his position. The | master of the whaler said that he had not_snoken a vessel for several months, and that he was completely lost.
