A JOKE ON THE MAYOR Oakland Office San Franeisco Call, | %08 Broadway, Sept. 3. Mayor Thomas is wondering who has played a joke on him or on a morning newspaper. Yesterday morning he read in a paper that Lady Yarde Buller had written to him a letter referring to her claims in the old Kirkham property ad- joining Lake Merritt. The article tated that the letter “written in an aristocratic angular hand and containing some legal references” had been sent to the y and that he had stated that Lady Yarde | Buller “will be given every opportunity | to prove her claim, but he doubts that she claim worth considering." | is a funny kind of a joke,” said | “I understand that Lady | e Buller is not altogether responsible | what she does, and yet, 1 read in the | aminer that 1 have received a letter | from her in which she asks me a cour-| tesy regarding some tide lands and that 1 have expressed an opinion on the same. This is all news to me. I have received no letter, although I noticed that the date | {4 ) is August 30, and I am sure that I have not been so foolish as to express an opin- fon about something of which I know thing and of the existence of which I vaE not even aware. “The letter in the ‘aristocratic angular hand’ must be a fiction, or else there is somehing radically wrong with the Oak- | land postal department, and I do not| think there s we now have a brand- | new Republican Postmaster. I made some inquiry as to how the letterand my alleged interview had been obtained, and was told that they had just ‘drifted in’ but 1 got no more satisfaction.” Mayor Thomas is not at all pleaséd that his name has been us in connection with a letter, which, if ever written, can vy be accounted for by the fact that y . Buller is still suffering from no w sment _which _caused and some monthts ago and her subsequent incarceration in.a Parisian madhouse. ——————— STRUCK BY AN ENGINE.

Gone also was the family purse with some $40 in it. It is rumored that a good-looking em- Y!nyt‘ of the electric road has been visit- ng the woman during her husband's ab- sence, and that they have gohe together.

ONLY BROAD TRACKS NOW The Unpopular Narrow Gauge Torn Up. RAILROAD IMPROVEMENTS | FINEST STEEL DRAW IN THE STATE COMPLETED. Next Monday the First Broad- Gauge Train May Run Along Webstex Street. Oakland Office San-Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Sept. 3. Before another week passes it is ex- pected that the narrow gauge system, which has been so unpopular for many years, will be a thing of the past. The beautiful steel bridge has been swung across the estuary and the machinery is in perfect order. The new tracks have been laid from Harrison street to Webster, and to-day several gangs of men are lay- ing a broad gauge track on Franklin street in place of the narrow gauge. Next week all this will be completed and the new system will be in operation. At present it is thought the work will be sufficiently advanced to run the first broad gauge train on Webster street next Monday. Last Thursday evening the last pieces of the bridge were completed, and when the big draw, which is one of the finest in the State, started to revolve it was found that the intricate mechanism was perfect, and the electric machinery a great improvement over the old hand sy tem. New cars and engines for the new | line were built in Sacramento and arrived in this city yesterda There are four- teen cars of the latest broad-gauge pat- tern, fitted with the improved Pintsch gas apparatus. For a time there will be one narrow gauge ‘rack kept on Webster street for the purpose of accommodating the freight service of the narrow gauge road to Santa Cruz. Work on both moles is being rushed and several hundred men are at work in each place. On the, broad-gauge mole track laying has already commenced to accommodate the twenty-minute service | COLONEL 0 which will be inaugurated as soon as the new ferry boat is completed bv the Union Iron Works. The railroad company has also con- tracted fer the material for changing the San Pablo cable road into an electric sys- tem, the contract being contingent on the permission of the City Council to make the change, SHALL BERKELEY HAVE APPOINTED JUDGES? LOCAL OPINION DIVIDED UPON THE SUBJECT. The “Push” Element Preparing to Oppose the New Charter Amendment. BERKELEY, Sept. 3.—Active interest is now developing in the matter of a local Police Judge. A recent decision of the Su- preme Court annulling the legal status of Berkeley's Justice's Court, on the ground that such could not exist under a free- holders’ charter, has made necessary a special election for the purpose of provid- ing for a local Police Judge. The election is to be upon an amendment to the town charter, establishing a Police Court. That such a move is not only necessary but im- perative everybody acknowledges, but a decided difference of opinion exists as to the way in which the judge should hold office. The Board of Trustees, together with the Town Attorney, Brewton Hayne, have a strong preference for a system of appointment, and they have carried this idea into the pro%used charter amepd- ment, which is to be voted upon on Octo- ber 15. The amendment reads: “A Police Court is hereby established in and for the town of Berkeley, to be held by a Police Judge, to be appointed by the Board of Trustees of sald town, who shall hold of- fice for two (2) years from and after his appointment.” ‘When asked for his opinion concerning this, Town Attorney Hayne sald: ‘“The objection to having our Police Judges ap- ointed seems to me utterly groundless. While I favor election in many cases for town officers, I believe that a judge should be appointed and not elected. An elective judiciary 1s, generally speaking, & bad thing. Short terms of office, cou- pled with an elective judiciary, is one of the most serious problems which confront our municipal governments. No sooner {5 a {udge elected than he begins to lay s p ans and log-roll for re-election. If that were done without regard to causes pending before the judge no such harm would result, but is that always the case? Of course a large majority of judges are above this sort of thing, and I think that a very small percentage of the charges against them are true, although popular opinion probably holds the contrary view. e feature of the appointed judge, to my mind, is tle chief recommendation of the pr?‘})nsed Jjudiciary amendment.” ‘While a’larger section of the commun- ity agree with Town Attorney Hayne, the measure is flndlnf much opposition. The “push” element is known to have de- clared emphatically against it. There are people, too, who find in the proposed in- novation as many evils as in the meth- od of election, and they are pledged to follow in the old way. The Good Govern- ment Club will meet next week to take some stand in the matter. The North Berkeley Improvement Club is expected to support it. Meanwhile the question is gaining more prominence, and the issue promises to call forth strong expressions of public opinion from both sides. Hospital Work Progressing. BERKELEY, Sept. 3.—Active work has been golng on among the ladies of the Berkeley branch of the Red Cross Societ: for furnishing the two beds in the Re Cross Hospital at the Presidio which are 1o be provided by residents of the uni- versity town. Everything is now com- lete and will be sent over to the Presidio ‘mmediately. The bedding required was purchased with funds from the treasury of the local society. All the articles have been marked ‘‘Berkeley.” Charles Kuler donated a carved panel with the same name, to hang over the beds. The feather illows came as a _gift from the West erkeley branch. The two little daugu- ters of Mrs. Barondis contributed a dozen pillowslips and six sheets. The girls of the State Institute for the Deaf and Dumb and Blind assisted bf{ mflklfi twelve of the sheets. e girls of ss Head's school likewise did their share. The work throughout has been under the direction of Mrs. W. B. Seabury, president of the local chapter. Saw a Grewsome Object. BERKELEY, Sept. 3—As John Coburn was walking_along the shore at West Berkeley to-day, he saw what appeared to be a woman’s head floating in the bay. Afraid to touch the thing himself, he reported the matter at once to the police. An_ officer was detalled to cap- ture the ghastly object, but before Bi"\,o could return to shore it had been washed out into the bay again and was nowhere to be seen. ——————————— Accused of Embezzlement. OAKLAND, Sept. 3.—John McGuire was placed in the County Jall to-night, charged with misdemeanor embezzle- ment.

He Charges Newberry With Treachery. MOTIVE A POLITICAL ONE MUSTERING OUT ASCRIBED TO FRIENDS OF 01iS. “Afraid Lolonel Berry Would Become Too Influential in Politics,” Says the Leader of the Regiment. The order to muster out the Sixth and Seventh Celifornia regiments was received at military headquarters yes- terday, and Brigadier General Miller, in command of the remaining Philip- pine expeditionary forces, will take ac- tion in the matter to-morrow. Under this order these regiments will go to. their respective places of rendezvous— the Sixth to Stockton and the Seventh to Los Angeles—where*the men will be furloughed for thirty days, at the end of which time they will be discharged. Lieutenant Sterrett of the Third Artil- lery will muster out the Sixth and some officer from the Twenty-third United States Infantry, yet to be des- ignated, will do the mustering out act for the Seventh. The two regiments will probably move from their present station to their rendezvous to-morrow or Tuesday. The Eighth California, now at Camp Barrett, has been ordered, under in- structions: from Washington, to take the place of these two regiments in do- ing guard duty and other work. The dispatch from Washington stat- ing that Colonel Berry might be court- martialed for violating one of the arti- cles of war in that he has criticised a superior officer, the Secretary of War, has created no excitement whatever at the Presidio, as Colonel Berry will probably be mustered out in a few days and will then care nothing about Secretary Alger or any other man con- nected with the military affairs of the country. Furthermore, the Secretary of War has received no official notifica- tion of the alleged breach of the arti- cles of war by Colonel Berry, and even if he had been notified he probably would not pay much attention to the matter, as it is at too long a range and hardly of sufficlent importance to engdge the attention of ‘the military authorities at this time. “I want to repudiate all interviews alleged to have been held by me after I was informed that the regiment would be mustered out,” said Colonel Berry last evening. ‘““As soon as I learned that the mustering out order was a fact I went to the city on busi- ness and did not see any one after that. The poll of the companies of my regi- ment as printed in the Examiner showing the number of men that are in favor of being mustered out is a fake pure and simple, and I can prove it, as the companies were not polled. The facts in the case that have led to the mustering out of the Seventh Reg- iment have been so distorted that no one knows the real truth, but I pro- pose to tell it for the first time now, 80 that those who have unwittingly censured me and my officers may see their mistake. “About two months ago I was warned by friends in Los Angeles that an underhanded effort was being made to work my undoing by some who wished to further their selfish ends.' I paid no attention to the warning, but simply went on trying to do my duty, and finally wrote my friends that I thought that they must be mistaken in their warnings, as I had seen no evi- dences of any one wanting to do me injury. To-day I learned from a thor- oughly reliable source that the friends of Brigadier General Otis have heen making efforts to discredit me in every possible way. “The motive is a political one, and in stating this I have to appear to be, L] against my inclinations, egotistical. It is alleged that if I succeeded in win- | ning any glory out of this war as the commander of the Seventh Regiment I would become a prominent factor for political preferment, and that was the purpose that actuated those who were active in trying to down me. This they have succeeded in doing, as far as the mustering out of the regiment is concerned, and they have accom- plished their ends by a misrepresenta- tion of facts to the authorities at ‘Washington. ‘“These facts will be disproved, for there exist no facts to support the charges that have been brought against me. J. R. Newberry, representing the people of Los Angeles, came to us some time ago in the guise of a friend, and as such was received by the officers of this regiment. Instead of being our friend he went throughout the camp stirring up the malcontents and sent back news to Los Angeles that all of the men wanted to be mustered out, which was, and is, not true, as the men of the regiment, and I mean those who are men, do not want to be mustered out. At the same time that Mr. New- berry was secretlv stirring up the men he was telling me that he had come to San Francisco as the representative of the War Board of Los Angeles with full power and explicit instructions to get for the Seventh Regiment whatever it desired. He said to me: ‘We represent an influence that goes directly to the President himself and we can get for the regiment anything that is within reason. If the Seventh wants to go to Honolulu we can send it there, or if the men desire it we can get them six months’ service at home—that is, near Los Angeles.’” Mr. Newberry. then went on to state that he thought that it would be a good thing to have the regi- | ment come to Los Angeles, as much | benefit would accrue to the city. I told him that it was idle to talk of | taking the regiment to Los Angeles, as that would be a violation of the best in- terest of the service to have the men encamped near their homes, and in ad- dition that neither the men nor the officers wanted any idle service, as they did not leave their homes for that pur- pose. I told him that the men wanted to go abroad. “This is the way that Mr. Newberry talked when he was here with me, and you can imagine my surprise when as soon as he got to Los Angeles he im- mediately commenced to work to have the regiment mustered out. The men of my regiment have been misrepre- sented, and the statement that I have tried to Influence them in any way is false. Béfore two weeks have passed the people of Southern California will wake up to the fact that they have been misled in this matter, and when the facts are known they will see that they have been deceived. Of course we officers feel the disgrace keenly, but the matter does not end here, for we shall call for a reckoning when we get home.” Colonel Berry when asked if he would make any effort to remain in the ser- vice with some other command replied that he was not certain as to his fu- ture movements, but that such a thing was by no means an improbability. — Captain Richter Not Mentioned. Adjutant General Barrett yesterday re- ceived a telegram from the adjutant gen- eral of the United States army saying that ‘‘General Merritt telegraphed Au- gust 23 a full list of officers and men killed and wounded at Manila up to that date, and Captain Richter’'s name is not among them.” It will be remembered that Captain Richter of the First Cali- fornia was reported in the newspaper dispatches as wounded, but from the above telegram it would appear that some mistake had been made A Pioneer Missionary. The recent death of Mrs. Lucinda B. Baldwin in Cleveland, Ohio, has removed a prominent and notable figure from the missionary section of the religious world. Mrs. Baldwin, who had reached the advanced age of 84, was one of Amer- ica’'s earliest women writers, contributing both prose and verse to various periodi- cals during at least fifty years of her busy and helpful life. While still a very young woman she became specially in- terested in religious work, and in later years was called the *“Mother of the Korean Mission,” since her generous hand provided the funds for the build- ing and maintenance of the Baldwin Chapel and Baldwin Dispensary in Seoul, which_were both named in her honor. Mrs. Baldwin was also instrumental in sending the first woman missionary, Mrs. Scranton, to Korea, and to her influnece thus extended is due much of the pres- ent civilization and Christianization of that especial portion of Asfa. She also practically adopted two native born Ko- rean girls, giving them her own name and defraying _all their expenses of maintenance and education while they were being fitted to work as mission- aries among their own people, and for more than half a century she has been in every way one of the most devoted and_ generous supporters of missiona: work in the United States. Mrs. Bald- win's only surviving children are Mrs. P. T. Dickinson, the well-known writer, now residing in Alameda, Cal., and Mrs. J. D.

THE HARE A TRICKY ONE THE DEMON OF UNION PARK FOOLED THE DOGS. ‘Winners and Losers of the Meetings Held Yesterday in the Inclos- ures — Fast Dogs at Ingleside. Coursing lovers—and there are now a large number of them in this State—who missed seeing yesterday’s coursing at the Union Park will regret it. The day was beautiful ‘and the hares ran like wildfire. Of all courses ever wit- nessed, the race between Right Bower and Flyaway was the longest, the hardest and the most exciting. The Bower was in splendid condition to run a hard and grueling race. But the | hare had something to say in the matter. ‘When Slipper Wren let loose the dogs of speed the Bower shot immediately to the front and was soon within close proximity of his game. The flyer of the plains, on seeing danger near, dropped its ears on its shoulders and then the fun com- menced. Bower was running well, but the hare was running still better, and for fully five minutes it actually played with the dogs, dodging this way and that, and oc- casionally shooting several yards in the lead of its pursuers and then turning back on its trail suddenly as if purposely to meet the animals that were endeavor- ing to end its existence. Bower would attempt to kill as the long- eared apimal passed under his nose, then Flyaway would take a turn, but the little hare was simple fooling its gur:uers. Finally Flyaway keeled over on her back, -. completely exhausted, leaving Right Bow- er to take charge of his game. 3 The hare, having had enough fun for one - day, joggetl %leasantly in front of the winner of last Sunday’s meeting, and when it reached the escape it put on a full head . of steam and ran down along the east- fence as fresh and as spry as when it first passed the slipper. 'oor old Bower dropped his tail in disgust and ouit run-__ ning. The hare, seeing that it could no longer enjoy the company of his enemy, loped leisurely into the escape, and thus ended one of the longest courses ever wit- . nessed in an inclosed park., Outside of this memorable course, the features of the day’s sport were the up- set of Lilllan Russell (a hea favorite) by Babe Murphy; the narrow escape that Rusty Gold had from defeat by Chartist; the bad defeat of poor old St. Lawrence by Victor Queen; the seemingly wild 30 to 1 bets that were wagered on Rosette defeating Little Doubt; the defeat of- Lanky Bob by Schley, & 2 to 7 shot; the: defeat of Petronius by Lightning, a1to 3 shot and the~upset of Rapid by Vigilant,. a 3 to 5 shot. 2 POo- $at Lord Byron sold for $5, while his o nent, Van Nida, brought only $1, an these odds Miss Nida had few supporters; but she made a ‘“‘no_cours wit is lordship, after which the betting changed.

In the Champlon stakes some tempting. long shot prices were offered, which were certainly warranted, as the easy victories of Connemara, Koolawn, Falsa Flatterer and Flying Buck a showed that they were the class of thelr company. The course between Patria and Hadiwist was the sensational event of the day, both dogs running in a very undecided race, which on peirg run_over again resuited in_the victory of Patria. Old Glory and Mystic Maid also ran a pretty course, which was won by the former, who was a mild short- ender with the betting public. Mystic Maid at the commencement led, but the hare favored Old Glory somewhat and turned in the direction of the grand stand, where some close work was ac- complished, Ol1d Glory killing a few feet from the grand stand. The results were as follows: Puppy_stake, first round—Deckelman & P nario's_Prince George beat T. J. Cronin’s De- pend, W. Perry's Campania beat P. J. G. . Kenna's Joker, P. J. G.

A Full Five Days' Treatment of Professor Jules Laborde's Marvelous French Vttal Restorative CALTHOS SENT FREE TO MEN BY SEALED MAIL. No C. 0. D. or Deposit Scheme, Are your days and nights made wretched by the secret consclousness that you are lacking in those attributes of virllity which fit a man to hold up his head among his kind and say proudly within himself: I am a man?”’ The stealthy, unexpected advance of nervous debility creeps upon a man and paralyzes his powers before he is aware of it. When he sud. denly awakens to the fact that his manhood going from him he becomes panic-stricken and an easy victim to many disreputable schemers. But all attempts at recovery are vain without the help of a genuine, scientific treatment. “I 00 not belleve” (says Professor Plerre Fau- veau in a lecture on NERVE FILAMENTS, de- livered at Paris, France), “that a single hu- man being was éver ABSOLUTELY and PER- MANENTLY cured of the evil effects of Sper- ‘matorrhoea, or Varicocele, or restored from Im- potency_ until the discovery and use of Pro- fessor Laborde's formulas of Calthos. I un- hesitatingly say to students present that his preparation of Calthos has absolutely cured every case that has been under treatment by the professors of our university, and [ belleve EVERY CURE IS A PERMANENT ONE.” ““The formulas of Calthos by Professor La- borde” (says another distinguished French phy- eician, Jules Beaurand, .D., i as one of the ablest practitioners of Europe in the treatment of nervous diseases), ‘‘are abso- lute specifics for Spermatorrhoea, Varicocels and Impotency, and I do not believe there is a single case that it Wil not permanently cure.” , This extraordinary vital restorative is the only known remedy co; upon true sclen- fific principles for the absolute cure of nervous weakness and Impaired manhood. Tt is the only treatment which will cure the EI what the cause may be. 3 Calthos has for many years been used in the French and German armles, and its marvelous success abroad has led to it introduction in the United States. The Von Mohl Co. of Cinein- pati, Onio, pomsess the sole American rights. In order to make the unparalleled merit of the great discovery known to every one in need of it this company has decided to send on m%\lm & full five days’ treatment of CALTHOS A’ LUTELY FREE. We are willing to give you this trial treat- ment without cost to you because we are sure it_will convince you that you can be cured.
