Now Believed He Is on His Way to Manila to Prescribe for the Soldiers and Insur- gents. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 2 908 Broadway, Aug. 27. A few months ago a very fashionable, middle-aged physician, giving the name of Dr. A. Ross, engaged rooms at the Pleasanton Hotel, Thirteenth and Wash- ington streets. The doctor also opened offices in the Macdenough block, but seemed to have more friends than pa- tients. Now the doctor is missing, and not a trace of him can be found by those who | have an interest in him, or by anybody else. Mrs. Robinson, the landlady of the Pleasanton, listened for three months to ible stories of fees that collected, with which he she the doetor’s would soon_ be could pay his board bill, and now wishes she had not been so patient. For a few days the doctor has not been seen. Frie have called on him, but he | was not th . Many of e_frien ladies, and it is said th . that Roes has been twice divorced, has another divorce case pending in "some court, and was paving the way to make another matrimonial venture. When the landlady became convinced that the doctor was neither occupyingihls rooms nor doing business at his offices she made an examination of his quar- ters, and found enough to convince her that her guest had permanently forgotten his board bill. In his rooms were a few old pans and a kettle of no value, and the general appearance of everything showed | that he did not intend to return. While the doctor was in Oakland he made much headway In certain circles, but it is now found that his credit was not so good as it was thought to be. Many people would like a reckoning, and some of them have taken possession of the bits of personal effects found in the room, but have given the landlady notice that they do not intend to be responsible for his | delinquencies. It has been reported to Mrs. Robinson that Dr. Ross has gone to | Manila, but there is no proof of thisstate- ment.

ELLOWS TO MARRY OR BANQUET NUMBER ONE TO CARRY OUT| HIS PLEDGE AT ONCE. The Remaining Eleven to Draw Lots to Determine Which Shall Be the Next Victim in the Game. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Aug. 27. Six years ago twelve young college men at Berkeley formed themselves into a club which they called the “Good Fellow Club.” For several years after leaving the university the Fellows met at regu- lar intervals to enjoy jinks at some secret spot. Four months ago the young men declded that with advanecing years it was incumbent on them to take @ more se- rious yiew of life than to consider it as fit only for jollification. They determined to form a marriage bureau, and lots were drawn numbered from 1 to 12. The man who drew the first number was either to be married within eight months or treat the club to a great banquet. Bucceeding numbers were to be similarly placed be- tween a marriage and a banquet in suc- ceeding periods. At the first drawing Fred Brown of East Oakland drew No. 1. Yesterday he sent to the club a formal notice that he had complied with the requirements, and {nvited the eleven members to be at his wedding banquet at Los Angeles on September 13. The remaining members are: Joseph B. Garber, B4 J. Pringle, Edward J. Haas, H. S. Allen, Edward _Shanklin, Robert T. McKlisick, Carlton W. Green, Burbank G. Summers, George L.

CHOICE OF ONE HUNDRED | MRS. HEARST TO LEAVE FOR THE BELGIAN CAPITAL. The Five Lucky Architects Will Come to Berkeley to Perfect Their Labors at Her Expense. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Aug. 27. The preparations for arranging a plan for making the Berkeley University the most unique and perfect in the world are being pressed as rapidly as circumstances will permit. The first stage has been reached, and the preliminary ecompetitions that were invited are now at Brussels. According to the terms upon which the competition is to proceed, as outlined by the advisers of Mrs. Phebe A. Hearst, the 100 architects selected all over the world to submit plans are to have their designs at Brussels by July 15 of this year. Word has been received that these lans are ready to be opened by the judges, and in a few weeks the result will be made known. Mrs. Hearst will leave in six weeks for the Belgian capital, and Regent J. B. Reinstein will also be present, he bein, one of the judges. The board that wil pass on the designs will consist of twelve of the best known men in Europe, compe- tent to decide on such matters. These Jjudges will select from the 100 designs the five which they consider the best in every respect. The architects who have submitted the five accepted designs will then come to Berkeley at the expense of Mrs. Hearst, and will survey the uni- versity grounds, after which they will perfect their plans and apply their origi- nal designs to suit the conditions at the university site. One year will be given them in which to submit their completed plans and specifi- catlons to the board of judges, and from these flve plans will be accepted the one which will be the basis for the mammoth scheme originated by Mrs. Hearst “There is a general idea that this uni- versity scheme is smoldering,” said one of the professors to-day; “but such is not the case. Mrs. Hearst is seeing that everything is done to expedite matters and already more has been accomplishes than we supposed could have been done in the time that has elapsed since the Within three months we expect to have the five fortunate candidates at Berkeley perfect- ing the details. This contest has excited general interest throughout the colleglate world and has been the means cf drawing (';1 foreign attention to our State Uni- sity.” CHEERED THE LADIES.
