Oakland Office San Francisco Call, %8 Broadway, April 1. The new Board of Works held its first meeting this morning and organized by electing City Attorn Dow president and R. F. Jackson of st Oakland secre- tary. R. M. Clement was re-elected chair- | man of the Board of Police and Fire Com- | missioners. It was a pretiy show of mod- | esty on the part of Mayor Snow to nomi- nate his two colleagues for the two chair- manships, it being usually the case for the Mayor to preside over the Board of ‘Works. The greatest interest centered around the secretaryship, no one having been in- formed who Mr. Snow, to whom the ap- pointment was conceded, intended to] nominate. The Mayor referred to the fact that the office for ten years had been | filled by, young men, but he proposed to | nominate one of two or three men of experience. - There was just a little un- witting irony in Mr. Snow’s remarks which followed: “The friends of the fol- lowing gentlemen have spoken in favor of the applicants: E. P. Flint, D. C. Hinsdale, E. H. Morgan, R. F. Jackson, John A. Sands, Arthur Humphrey, E. T. Barber, Robert Chestnut, John Laughlin, E. 8. Finch, T. G. Kennedy, I. 8.

' HAT rare product which Pope declares to be the noblest work of the Almighty appears to be increasing in.San Francisco. A few days ago a man found a purse on the street containing currency and bonds of the value of $10,000 and promptly returned it to the owner. Now <omes Henry Jacobs, a humble waiter at the Tivoll, who can justly lay claim to the poet’s classification. Last Tuesday night, while leaving the theater, he picked up a dainty silk handkerchief, in the corner of which a knot was tied. He carelessly placed it in his pocket and did not think of the incident until the fpl- lowing morning, when upon exam- ination he discovered that the knot contained seven beautiful rings. He ' realized their value, but upon report- ing for duty he turned the gems over to the care of the treasurer of the Tivoli and felt decidedly relieved in mind. . The jewels were the property of Mrs. H. S. Seabury of Portland, Or., who had dropped them in the aisle while leaving the playhouse. She reported the loss to the police and Detective Ed Gibson was detailed on the case. He searched the pawn- shops of the city, but could obtain no clew to the missing property. Finally an advertisement was placed in The Call, and by this means the gems were restored to Mrs. Seabury, Who, it is. needless to say, was over- joyed at their recover The lady > wanted to make Jacobs a substan- tial present, but the latter declared that he had anly done his duty. He was finally prevailed upon to accept a small gift as an evidence of the HENRY JACOBS. apprectation of Mrs. Seabury. i The rings consisted of a marquise of great beauty, another set with three diamonds and five set with diamonds and emeralds, the aggregate value of which was $2000. 40404040404 0 4 04 O 4+CH0+0+0 040404040+ O+ O+ O 440404 MERRY LEGAL TANGLE OVER W'NAMARA’S LOT H4O4+04+0404 04+ 04040+ 04040404040 4040 4+ 040+ 0O+ 040+ 04+0+8 recommend that the charter be some time amended to provide for the appointment of such commission.

He sat as | Hall | no one doubted. Seven years ago Charley Mautalen | elected County Republican Committes man from the Sixth Ward. This ward ia | always conceded at election time to the railroad candidate, whoever he may be. No “reformer” or Municipal League can- didate could ever do anything in “‘the | bloody Sixth.”” Mr. Mautalen controlled that ward and whatever he said was law, | it being always conceded that he was speaking for Mr. Stephen T. Gage, et al For the first two years Charley did so well that his employers promoted him. | They had him re-eiected and he was ho | ored by being made chairman of the Ala meda County Central Republican Com- mittee | s added largely to his prestige. In fact, to such a degree did he prosper that | he was enabled saloon and -ars on 1o sell out his profitable ly for two or th No one faithful. Charley dic he would in service for five years. ago Alameda County got ired- of Mr. Gage. This was due ction of Mr. Mautalen’s, that at cked the railroad prestige in the 1 party and ultimately brought downfall of Mautalen. At a ng, at which Mr. Hilborn was ade a great speech, Charley as _chairman of the gounty tee called the big gatheriilg to order and anno as his choice for chairman of the evening his sincere friend and staunch Republican, Hon. Stephen T. G On hearing the name of the man under whose auspices he was to speak Mr. Hilborn promptly got up and walked out of the hall. This secured Mr. Hil- born’s re-election at that time, but it was lifting of the keystone from out of the utalen arch. From that hour Char- s prestige began to fall. Two years ago he failed to be elected a committeeman to succeed himself, but still continued to handle his following in the interest of Mr. Gage. Although robbed of all his peacock-feathers Charley still had himself, to whom were attached quite a following of personal friends. He continued to swing these into line and -remained faithful to the desires of Gage until the past month. ‘At Sacramento Mautalen was clearly shown that.he was “‘a dead duck” in the rallroad yard. Years of service counted for nothing, and Charley became _the most private of citizens. He secured a temporary job at the Legislature and ex- pected that his old employers would look after him. In this he was gflevousl dis- appointed, and he returned to Oakland | broken in spirit and in politics. | Now Charley is tending bdr at Hanni- fin’s. An honest man was needed in the saloon, and Charley was rrsuickly taken up, for no one ever doubted his honesty or his fidelity to whoever empioyed him. Since. Oakland was Oakland annifin’s has been a feature, and it loses none of its interest with Charley behind the bar to | tell of what has been. Some Txeer thfln?s had transpired in a couple of saloons In the heart of the city. The cash registers did not work or were not permitted to work, and the nickel-in-the-slot machine proved ta be very obstinate, and it was thought that if any one could restore a normal condition of affairs under such pe- culiar circumstances it would be Charle: | Mautalen. 8o the ex-boss of the railroas | was sought out, and since then the ma- | chines have been working as perfectly as | did the political system of which Charley was formerly so prominent a part. Had Charley not been turned down, and could he have delivered a vote or two to Dan Burns, he might now be drinking in- stead of mixing cocktails.

Republi about th public mee ! 1o comm Peterson Cruelly Told the Dupe That He Deserved to Lose All He Staked. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, %8 Broadway, April 1 Sergeant Petersén was appealed to last night to do something which he does not consider in the line of-his duty. There are in Oakland about fifty keno games draining nickels and quarters from youths’ pockets every night. Since the game has not been prohibited the gam- blers have marvelously increased. In a basement at Eighth street and Broadway one of these games is in con- staxftdnpe};m.lon. Last night there was a little disturbance. An Itallan peanut man had been down to invest some of his nickels in the game. He had cried “Keno” at the right time, but somehow or other kena did not come to him. In this par- ticular instance keno was worth $4 65. The peanut man declared it a swindle and rushed up to the sidewalk, where he met Sergeant Peterson, whom he inform- ed that he had been robbed. The sergeant at once proceeded to get on the track of the robber and was led by the peanut man to the gambler presiding over the keno game. }s-le then proceeded to tell the ser- geant how he had called out at the right minute, but had not been able to get his money, and he expected the police officer to at once capture the bank and hand it ver to him. O'l’hetser eant informed the dupe that such conduct was not part of a police officer's duty, and the peanut man was woefully disconsolate when Peterson told *him that if he was foolish enough to risk his money In such a grnpflultlnn he de- served to lose it. /The dealer of the game asked the sergeant to take a hand. but it was declined, and as Peterson left the gamblers were betting on the chances of what he might have won had he stood in, L.

WEALTHY PIONEER JOINS THE MAJORITY Jay V. Lawrance, After a Pro- tracted Iliness, Succumbs to Bright’s Discase. AY V. LAWRANCE, a wealthy pioneer of both California and Oregon, passed away in this city at 616 Sacramento streét on Friday evening. Death was the result of Bright's disease, which had kept him confined for the past several months. During his early life on the Paclfic Coast Mr. Lawrance was engaged in contracting, lumbering and mining, but retired about ten years ago from active business and invested his fortune in real estate, Including valuable ranches in Kern and Napa counties and prop- erty ‘in San Francisco, Berkeley and Oakland. His estate will approximate : : : z : | Mr. Lawrance arrived in San Francisco June 14, 1849. He camé on the bark Sacramento around the Horn. In connection with the captain of the vessel, Alfred Balch, and F. S. Balch, an Eastern capitalist, he imme- dlately took contracts for the erection of forty-eight of the first structures of this city. He then departed for the El Dorado of the West and found a fortune awaiting him in the placer lands. He deposited his money in the notorious Adams Bank, and when it went to the wall he returned to. this city to recover only half of what he had deposited. Taking the remnant, he went to Oregon and erected the first building in Portland. He cut lumber on Puget Sound for a time, but again found his way back to this city, in 1863, where he engaged in contracting and build- ing. Ten years ago he turned his business over to his son, George B. Law- rance. Besides his son, Mr. Lawrance leaves a daughter, Mrs. Arrinia " Whitham of Berkeley, to mourn his loss. He was 7 years of age. The funeral will take place to-day at 10 a. m., under the auspices of the [ ] ® | } California Soclety of Ploneers, of which he was a member. *-0-9 6006 6-66-0-0-90-9 H—“—H—.—.—I] t Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, April 1. A B0-foot lot on Fourth street, near | Aliston, Berkeley, once the property of | James McNamara, presents a legal tan- gle the unraveling of which may cost its value. The lot was purchased by William Mein some years ago under color of title from | Mrs. Mary McNamara, who had not| heard from her husband for several years, and she deeded it as a widow. Since the | purchase by Mein Mrs. | McNamara has | also disappeared and her whereabouts | have not been known the past eight ) years. Recently Mr. Mein learned that there might be some flaw in his title and accordingly commenced suit to remove all doubts. It was found that in the eyes of the law | James McNamara was presumed to have been dead at the time his wife deeded the | praperty. Yet no probate proceedings ad ever been had on the estate. Of his fact the -Public Administrator, B. C. Hawes, was immediately apprised He forthwith applied for letters of ad ministration, which were granted twa| weeks ago, and this afternoon, as admin- istrator of the estate, he filed Suit against Willlam Meln for the recovery of the property. In his complaint, prepared by Attorneys Snook & Church, Administrator Hawes alleges that Mein entered upon the lot without right or title and asks for a de- cree restoring possession to him, together with $100 damages for the withholding of possession. - No public record of the death of James and Mary McNamara has been discov- ered, but whens Hawes applied for letters | acquaintances of theirs testified on the witness stand that they had not seen or heard from the McNamara's within the past seven years; wherefore the law pre- sumes both husband and wife to be dead.

It is viewed in. the prospective by those of sensitive palate as the jolly tar looks forward to his Christ- mas jag. Its position in the cycles of time has not yet been defermined, but it is sure to find a place soon after an eventful twelfth day of May, when Judg® Daingerfield will quote a chapter df Blackstone and liberate the treasury of the Societe Culinaire Cosmopolite de Secours Mutuels'- de San Francisco. i 3 s Americanized and briefly stated, the last nine words mean a society -of cooks, whose members will do the drama that will bring smiles and gladness to the epicure. In 1878 it was organized, with 100 of the elite chefs of San Francisco on the charter roll. Time has played sad havoc in its ranks since then, and to-day but ten of the original teath part of a thousand respond to the fall of the gavel. This condition of affairs has produced a desire 6n the part of the lonely ten kings of thi culinary department to disband, and herein lies the first chapter of the story 5 Sk ) The society was ushered into existence as a corporation and was attended by due process of law. It must submit to a similar legal”treatment in or- der to disorganize. The fact that considerable monéy is'tied up in the treas- ury and cannot be touched until the corporation ceases to exist has caused the members to resort to the courts. The matter, therefore, will be handled by Judge Daingérfield on May 12, and the surplus coin ‘turneéd into twenty itching palms. Instead of dropping it into the deep recessés:of théir pock- ets the chefs will at once institute another treasury for the purpose of giving a royal banquet. S x e el This banquet will be ‘‘one that you read about.” Beef a la mode, braized beef with spaghetti, etc., will be crossed indefinitely from, the bill of fare. On the day of the momentous occurrence the cooks, all of whom are lords in the salle de cuisine of the well known families and cafes of this city, will forget of the caterer’s existence, and donning their caps will prepare the food which will grace the board. Each one will select his own specialty and prepare that with a care and pride which he has never evinced befare. Then will their friends gather, the candles be lighted and the feast proceed. Those who will be fortunate enough to secure invitations are sure to be the objects of envy of the community. It is safe to say that the spread will be even more sumptuous than those enjoyed by one of royal blood. - The cooks will display their-years of experience with results that perhaps have never been felt on the palate before. + R aae e R Rt R SR R AR SRR SRR SR SRR AL AR SN S *ReRIRER 4R - St e RN
