A wonderful old Bible has just been dis- covered in Venice, the fortunate finder be- ing Leo 8. Olschki, a well-known antiqu: rian of Florence. It is in five large Vol umes and was printed in Rome in the printing-house of Don Pietro Massimo in 1471 and 1472, Soon after it came from the press it was purchased by a patrician fam- ily of Venice, and it was in the archives u} this family that Olschki discovered it. The edition of which it forms a part is exceedingly rare, and large sums have been paid for imperfect copies of this Bible. Olschki paid 5400 lire ten years ago for a copy of which two volumes were missing, and a lbrary in Berlin recently asked 13,000 lire for a mutilated copy. The copy just discovered lzogrobnbl)’ e finest in the world, and 30, lire was readily paid for it by a buyer, who is supposed to ll'_gpreln;m a wealthy American.—New York erald. g ngle, thirty-secon: “I believe that ?ollcemln sald the pro- rietor of the blind pig, *‘suspects me.

The annual election held by the Ebell Society to-day terminated In the cholce of Mrs. Kate A. Bulkley for president. Mrs. P son, the retiring president, re- <d a large enough complimentary vote make the balloting interesung, thougn | not on the ticket and had asked friends to refrain from casting their votes for her. The number of the pallots st was 180, less than one-haif of the rship of the club. 1e elect is considered the most in- teresting in the society’s history, for it hinged on an issue—that of federation with the State organization—and never before has there been an issue, but merely the question of popularity and special rt- ness. he friends of federation warmly advo- cated Mrs. Gleason for re-election, belfev- ing that she deserved it for the excellent service of the past year. So she was asked to take & place on the ticket and even to head an independent ticket. All of which he refused to do. The anti-federists have as warmly sought to put a strong mem- { ber at the society’s head who would not te federation. And after nd search secured but one their nominations—Mrs. declare for S some trouble acquiescence to Bulkley. But in spite of Mrs. Gleason’s stand she was virtually a part of the ticket to-d. even though she had communicated with | her friends asking them to support Mrs. Bulkley and had written Mrs. Bulkley to the same effect. To-day in the face of ail Mrs. Gleason's determination votes wer cast for her so that she was forced, eve at the ballot-box in the Ebell rooms, t e n o | try and prevent votes being cast for her. This she did by putting up a notice thank- ing all who were eager to see her elected for their kindness, but requesting that they keep to the ticket for the sake of harmony, fleclarmfi1 that she could not again accept the office. he election as it resulted must be a satisfying one, even for those who were Mrs. Gleason's strongest supporters. For Mrs. Bulkley, the new president, is capa- ble, popular and one of the organization’s most untiring and deservlni members. During the pasla’enr she has been record- ing secretary and has done a greatamount of work in’ connection with the new M- brary site. To-day one of her strongest advocates was Mrs. R. P. Gleason, recognized as her most powerful opponent for the presi- dency. Mrs. Gleason declared that she was eager to be a layman again, for she has much work apart from the Ebell to do and she dissuaded not a few from cast- ing their votes scattering in order that Mrs. Bulkley might poll a large majority. The remainder of the ticket s as fol- 1o Vice presidents, Miss Mabel Gray, Mrs. J. W. Musser; recording secretary, Mrs. Frederick Allardt; correspondingsec- retary, Mrs. E. C.

D Anas ALAMEDA, April 13.—Five months ago Joseph Maristany, the aged capitalist, married Mrs. Annette Freimann, whose | business name is Mme. Harbidge. On the 19th of last month Mrs. Maristany went Marion, Ind. Now Maristany has discov- ered that his wife left him debts of $5000 and that she never intends to return to him. To a friend in Alameda she wrote that Alameda is too slow for her and only fit for church and Sunday-school people to live in, adding that she was going to Cape Nome In the spring. Mme. Harbidge came to Alameda in No- vember last and opened the Alameda Cloak and Suit House, locating in one of Maristany’'s stores at the corner of Oak street and Alameda avenue. Maristany, officiating as his own rent collector, met the lady often and soon fell desperately in love with her. She saw an opportunity to save rent and when he proposed mar-] riage acquiesced. They were married se- cretly and it was a month afterward be- fore the news leaked out. For a while Mr. and Mrs. Maristany were happy, but by and by they began to fight and family rows were frequent.

Kenyon, a Hermit, Found Dead, Deserted and Neglected. [ i oo cmea BERKELEY, April 13.—John C. Ken- yon, 72 years of age, was found dead in his cabin in West Berkeley last evening. The case is very pitiable and shows neg- lect and carelessness. The surroundings )f nis home and the condition of the body indicate that death was by starvation. In | the midst of a populous neighborhood the poor old man passed away neglected and thrown aside by his friends. Eight years ago Kenyon purchased a | twenty-five-foot lot. The property, how- ever, was immediately transferred to Ken- yon's sister, who then resided in San Francisco. Since then no trace of her has been found. He had a little money at first, and with odd jobs at coopering he man- aged to subsist without any outside alid. Lately he has had to depend on wood cut- ting and clam digging. At his age the exposure necessitated in clam digging was too severe for him. He contracted a cold, | which developed into pneumonia, prevent. | ing him from earning his livelihood, and | the consequence was that he starved to death. Mr. Kenyon was oo weak to pur- sue his regular habits, and none of the neighbors paid any attention to his dis- | appearance. His home consisted of a lit. | tle shanty 10x12 feet, and_when inspected | by Marshal Lloyd and Deputy Coroner Streightiff this afternoon was found in a most deplorable condition. There was not a_morsel of food in the place, except part of an orange, and there was even evi- dence that the old man had died from lack of food.

FRIR ST BERKELEY, April 13.—Judge W. H. Taft. president of the Philippine Commis- sion; President Benjamin Ide Wheeler and Professor Bernard Moses addressed the students of the University of Califor- nia this morning. A platform had been erected at the base of the flag pole in front of the library building, and around that fully a thousand men and women students assembled. The rally was in the nature of a farewell to Professor Moses, who has been appointed on the Philippine Commission. Professor Moses was greet- ed with cheers and college yells by the students, as was also Judge Taft. Presi- dent Wheeler said: “I want to use this opportunity when I have so many of you before me to say just a word about the very Interesting subject of rushing. 1 have been very fond of rushing myself. My experience in the matter dates from my connection with a small college, and I recognize the fact that rushing is out of date, that it is relegated to the life of the small col- lege.

We are going to see if the old-fashioned rush can be re- | duced to a game of rules.” | Judge Taft was then introduced and | our president said T need only say | a word_expressing my pleasure in being here.

As the| officers started to lead him from thcf room his little daughter came to him and reaching up her chubby arms| around his neck. Between her con-| vulsive sobs came the pathetic words, “Good-bye, papa; I guess I'll never see | you any more.” The mental breakdown which settled as a pall over this once happy family | came after years of concentrated ner- vous strain and overwork had sapped the brain and nerves of their vitality.
