Two years ago his parents separated. His father went East, and some time later his mother no- tified her husband that she had put the boy on a train to go to his father. De Pue heard no more of the boy, and as he did not arrive at his Eastern destination he came to Oakland and began a search for the bo§ Upon his arrival he was told that the boy must be lost, and on the theory that his son had disappeared De Pue set to work. He was not long in dis- covering that the boy was never far away from his mother, and when he had roved this fact to his own satisfaction e instituted a suit for divorce and also tried to recover the lad. A week ago Judge Ogden decided that there was some informality in the pro- ceedings to recover the boy, and stated that he could not interfere pending the trial of the divorce suit. This evidently did not suit the father, for he has sworn out another writ, made returnable to- morrow. ——————————— SIX YEARS FOR ROUGERS. Sentence Imp&seilvf;rgthe Killing of E. E.

Anderson grappled with his assail- ant and forced him Into a seat.

The former, he declares, are not legal charges against the county and the latter are not legally made out, as they do not show where the arrests were made or whether the Constable had jurisdiction.

Being an Election Year the Periodical Quarrel Will Probably Be More Bitter Than Usual. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, July 5. The annual row between the County’ Assessor and the Supervisors sitting as a Board of Equalization had its formal beginning this morning. Assessor Dal- ton completed the rolls to-day and turned them over to the Supervisors. The foot- ings show that the exact reduction from This is the roll of last year is $9,895,725. made up as follows: Brooklyn Emeryville Haywards Livermore . San Leandro.

For three years the political feature of the summer has been the contest over railroad properties in this county. Seventh-street local and the tracks, and each year they have been taken off by the County Board of Equalizagon upon the advice of Mr. Morehouse, ne mem- ber of the State Board of Equalization from this district. E. Black Ryan knows just what to expect each July, and he comes over prepared with all kinds of documents to prove that his company is being cinched. Each July Mr. Dalton prepares to up- hold his assessments, and generally for about two weeks there is a battle royal | before the Board of Equalization. So far | it has always ended in favor of the Southern Pacific Company, and this year there is some speculation as to what will be the result. In speaking of the matter to-day Mr. Dalton said: “I have placed the railroad properties on the rolls again, as I believe they ought to be there. The County Board has taken them off for the last three years and I have no idea what they will do this year. the Water Front Company has been as- sessed to it at & valuation that I consid- er very fair. “This year's assessment roll is an en- tirely new one. All the figures have been arrived at without regard for former as- sessments. Everybody knows that land is not worth as much this year as it was last year. This county has been assessed too high, and the depreciation in value has made a reduction of the assessment roll imperative. In the interior of the county, especially, land has greatly de- creased In value and the same is true of many parts of this city, particularly West Oakland. All the field deputies were in- structed to absolutely ignore precedent and to assess land for what it is actually worth and no more. I have employed much expert assistance in compiling the Toll, and although it shows a big reduc- tion, I believe it to be the correct value of this county for assessment purposes. The Supervisors met as a oard of Eaqualization to-day and issued a notice that they are now ready to pass on the reduction and rating of assessments and to consider all applications concerning the roll toming from taxpayers. —— MYSTERY OF A DEATH. The Man Killed by the Local on Mon- day Identified as Daniel Black. OAKLAND, July 5.—Ben F. Calhoun, of 9514 Telegraph avenue, Berkeley, identi- fled the remains of the unknown man killed by the local train on First and Broadway last night as Daniel Black, of Addison and Mary streets, Berkeley. He said Black left home yesterday morn- ing in good health and expected to:re- turn, so far as known. Considerable mystery surrounds the af- fair. No one has yet been found who saw him either on the train or track prior to his death. Foul play is hinted at, as the deceased was quite well-to-do. No reason can be given for his going to that portion of the city unless he was decoyed there or led prisoner. As nothing of any value was found on his person it may be that robbery was the motive for his death, but nothing definite could be learned to-night. An inquest will be hela to-morrow evening. Mr. Black was a native of Boston, Mass., aged 45, and a bachelor, living a retired life with two sisters and a brother. He was formerly in charge of the Clark ranch, near Melrose, and was of a quiet disposition. Virginia Goodsell Going East. OAKLAND, July 6.—This city is to sup- ly the Eastern stage with another of her cautiful and talented daughters. She leaves about the middle of the month for New York, where she has several flat- tering offers awaiting her.

En route she will visit the exposition at Omaha_and officiate as maid of honor at the wedding of her cousin, Miss Catherine Goodsell. Compton Back From Montana. OAKLAND, July 5.—Deputy Sheriff Al ‘White has returned from Montana with Beverly C. Compton, who is charged with embezzling the three-year-old running horse, Mayboy. He is now in jail, but claims his_arrest is the rankest kind of {njustice. He made no resistance to being brought here and came without requisi- tion papers. The affalr is so complicated that only through a jury trial can the truth be known. ——————————— To Box in Berkeley.

LITTLE THORN A WINNER C. A. HUG'S MOJAVE SHOWS HE IS LEVEL-HEADED, Murray of Pleasanton Appears Be- hind a Good Three-Year- Old—Entries for To-Day The excellence of the sport provided by the Breeders’' Association at the Oakland track is perhaps no better exemplified than by the good marks horses without records are dally giving themselves. Yesterday, for example, Mabel McKin- ney, another of the get of that rellable sire, McKinney, trotted a mile in 2:17 flat, | 2nd Inferno, a son of the great Diablo, driven by the owner of that sterling horse, paced his first heat in 2:15. Alto- gether, since the meeting opened, some sixty heats and races have been brought off, and only one has shown worse than 2:25. One has crly to take up the East- ern papers with accounts of their races there to appreciate what a great showing that is. The punctuality that governed the judge’s stand on Monday prevailed yes- terday, and the programme was through by 5 o’'clock, a state of things which suits the average race-goer to a dot. Charles L. Griffith’s bay gelding, J.v Al- bert, who made such an impression on his first start last Wednesday, when he won in the 2:27 class in 2:17%, was the favorite for the first race. W. G. Durfee's Mamie Riley, quoted at 3 to 1, and W. L. Spoor's Mabel McKinney, who was third to Jib Albert on the previous occasion, had few supporters at 10 to 1. Going to the quar- ter in :33%, the half in 1:08% and the three-quarters in 1:42, with Dexter D and Silver Queen next behind him, it looked like a victory for the favorite, but Mabel, who had broken early in the race, had steadied down, came through at the pole at the three-quarters and won hand- somely in 2:17. The second race, 2:15 Ea.clng, was not much more than a work out for Little Thorn, who, as good as even money, beat ?Hhur W, 8 to 2, and Beachwood, 2, In Dr. F. W. Knowles’ nomination, Infer- no, was a 4 to 5 favorite in the heat race for 3-year-olds, in which there were only two other starters, Dictatress and I Di- rect. He won the first easily in 2:15, with I Direct just second, but tiring so that Dictatress was made second choice for the second heat. Inferno won the seconda heat just as easily, and Dictatress, se- curing the place, divided second and third money with I Direct. A Hug’s good looking but self-willed Mojave, at 3 to 1, after delaying the start for a few scores, finally got away, and settling down like a good game horse, trotted around his field ang won from Sllver Ring and Clay S in 2:15%. Billy Donathan added another victory to his credit by driving Myrtle Thorn home a winner in the last event on_the card, a special for named horses, in whicn Mabel McKinney, the winner of the first race, was favorite at 4 to 5. Daymont was a good second. The summaries are as follows: FIRST RACE. Trotters without record, mile dash, purse $200. Mabel McKinney, b, m. by McKinney (C.
